Jiraiya's words of coaxing and flattery finally calmed Tsunade down temporarily. However, her clenched fists and tight lips showed that her anger had not subsided at all. The situation had not improved; on the contrary, it seemed as if she was suppressing an even fiercer flame.

In the other room, Feng Hua Xiaoxue was still calling out emotionally, "Lord Yun'an... Lord Yun'an..."

Yun An remained silent, and this silence intensified her worry, causing her to unconsciously tighten her grip on his waist.

"You like me?"

Yun An's voice finally rang out, so calm it was completely devoid of emotion: "Why do you like me?"

Without a second thought, Feng Hua Xiaoxue blurted out, "Of course, it's because of Lord Yun'an's immense strength. Your arrival will bring glory to our entire Snow Kingdom. Moreover, Lord Yun'an has helped our Snow Kingdom this time. As people of the Snow Kingdom, isn't it perfectly right to admire and admire a hero like you?"

Is there anything wrong with this?

The girl's innocent charm and persistence were on full display at this moment.

Who is Ke Yun'an?

He knew all too well what the Snow Kingdom princess was thinking.

If he truly didn't know Feng Hua Xiaoxue's background, he might have been fooled by these words, but unfortunately...

He saw things clearly from the very beginning.

"The princess of the Snow Kingdom says she likes me?"

Yun An chuckled lightly, her tone tinged with mockery, "It's less about a young girl's affection and more about an exchange of interests."

You're actually quite worried, aren't you?

He paused, looking at Kazeka Koyuki's suddenly stiff face, and continued, "You are worried about Konoha, and the Land of Fire behind it, using this opportunity to help you restore your country to openly take over the entire Land of Snow."

After all, it wasn't just some random Chunin or Genin who came; it was Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin, and Tsunade, another of the Legendary Sannin.

Each of them possesses top-tier strength in the ninja world, and they all stand on Konoha's side. Therefore, in your opinion, the Land of Snow will almost certainly be directly controlled by Konoha in the future.

Am I right?

Feng Hua Xiaoxue's face turned completely pale. Her face, which had been full of girlish charm just moments before, was now covered with a layer of frost, and even the light in her eyes dimmed.

Yun An, however, seemed oblivious to her unusual behavior and continued talking to herself, tearing the veil of pretense to shreds: "What I can tell you is that you guessed correctly."

It's even possible that Konoha, including the Land of Fire, might do the same thing in the future.

After all, what came was not something that could be concealed by a few junior ninjas; it was Konoha's top combat force.

Using the guise of rewards to indirectly control the Snow Country, and even to plot more, is perfectly logical.

"Moreover, the newly appointed Fifth Hokage of Konoha, Orochimaru, has a pretty good relationship with me, as well as with Jiraiya and Tsunade."

Whether considering it from a personal perspective or the village's perspective, it seems we have no reason to refuse.

Yun An's voice was soft, yet every word was piercing, tearing apart all pretense and revealing the most authentic and cruel side.

This is the law of survival in the ninja world: there are no permanent allies, only permanent interests.

From some point onward, the smile on Feng Hua Xiaoxue's face completely disappeared, leaving only a cold indifference.

The admiration and love she had shown Yun An were gone, replaced by the calm and calculating gaze of a ruler.

Looking at her like this, Yun An shrugged slightly and sighed softly: "Under normal circumstances, I really don't have any good feelings towards women who try to scheme against me."

"And you, of course, will be no exception."

"Otherwise... perhaps..."

Before Yun An could finish speaking, two figures rushed into the room like whirlwinds, one after the other.

Tsunade and Kurenai Yuhi. They heard everything clearly from next door. Yun An did nothing, and even exposed Fuuka Koyuki's schemes, which was something they were happy to see.

But they were even more afraid that things might get complicated if they didn't stop her soon. Who knew that the Snow Kingdom princess might take advantage of her proximity to Yun An and become entangled with her in the future?

The previous misunderstanding had already made them feel like they were at a disadvantage, and if things continued to go on like this...

Those two are really going to become a huge nemesis.

Therefore, to avoid this situation, the two of them absolutely had to step up and thoroughly humiliate the Snow Kingdom princess, otherwise the title of "great traitor" would be nailed to their heads, bringing shame upon them for the rest of their lives.

"Yun'an, how dare you!"

As soon as Tsunade entered, she shouted angrily, hands on her hips, looking like she was about to accuse someone, "How dare you do such a thing in front of us!"

Upon hearing this, Yun An was stunned, then laughed and cried at the same time: "Fine. What nonsense. Didn't you hear or see anything just now?"

She was the one who seduced me. And I already resisted quite a bit, okay?

Otherwise, I wouldn't be standing on the ground now, but lying in bed.

Yun An has never been one to offer many explanations, but at this moment...

He insisted on calling black white, and he did so with a straight face.

Unfortunately, Tsunade and Kurenai Yuhi were right next door and listened to the whole thing, so Yun An's words were absolutely true.

Even if they wanted to call a deer a horse or distort the truth, they simply couldn't do it.

The two opened their mouths, intending to use trickery to get away with it, but Yun An raised his hand to stop them.

"Stop fooling around."

Yun An's smile faded, and his tone became serious again. "We need to send someone back to Konoha and the Land of Fire to contact them about the situation in the Land of Snow."

Send Little Li over there.

He's straightforward and won't cause any trouble.

As soon as he said that, it was clear he was about to get down to business.

Kurenai and Tsunade exchanged a glance, then Kurenai glared at Yun An before reluctantly turning to give instructions to Lee.

Yun'an also lost interest in continuing to deal with Feng Hua Xiaoxue.

If it weren't for the interests of Konoha and the Land of Fire, this small task of restoring the Land of Snow would be completely unnecessary.

He couldn't be bothered to get involved, much less to cause any trouble with this scheming future daimyo.

It's so embarrassing.

Feng Hua Xiaoxue watched Yun An turn and leave, stood there for a long time, and then slowly spoke, her voice trembling slightly: "So... from beginning to end, you were just acting?"

Is it all for the sake of the entire Snow Country?

"otherwise?"

Yun An sneered, his gaze sharp as a knife, "Could it be that you really did it for the sake of the prince of the Snow Kingdom?"

I'm not that greedy.

He glanced at the pale-faced Feng Hua Xiaoxue, his tone indifferent yet his words clear: "Stop wallowing in self-pity here."

I saved your life, otherwise, the Snow Country would have nothing to do with you.

Remember, the Snow Country is not your Snow Country, it belongs to all the people of the Snow Country.

The arrival of Konoha will naturally make their lives better; at the very least, their living environment will change drastically.
