The room was barely big enough, but not very convenient. Ye Cang especially needed to shower frequently; the two brothers could manage before, but not anymore.

Besides, even when my girlfriend comes over, I can't bring her home; running around the mountains would be a waste of time.

“It’s time to find a big house,” Shenyue Xingyun muttered to herself.

If he were just an ordinary ninja, he would never have considered buying property in Konoha. It's common knowledge that Konoha's real estate projects are utterly worthless investments.

But things are different now.

He's an elite Jonin, a high-ranking member of the village, and he certainly has the money to sell or rent a house. Cost-effectiveness is something ordinary people consider; those who aren't short of money don't worry about cost-effectiveness.

Do what you want to do.

The next day, Shingetsu Seiun used the excuse of "something coming up at home" to tell Uzuki Yuhi that he would be staying at the summit for a while while he looked for a place to live.

When the latter accused him of not taking his work seriously, he replied with "I have to make sure you have a bed at home," which left her speechless and blushing.

Finding a house didn't take too long. If you don't consider price, finding a house isn't actually that difficult.

Finally, he found a house he liked not far from Konoha's commercial street.

It's neither too far nor too close to the center of Konoha, offering a quiet oasis amidst the hustle and bustle.

The house is very large, with three sides facing the street, each with its own small courtyard and gate. Behind the small courtyards are two-story residences, and in the middle is a large courtyard, big enough to not only place swings and lawns, but also to have a fighting ring.

The number of rooms and bathrooms has increased significantly compared to before, enough to accommodate an average family, let alone a few people.

When combined with his barrier magic, this large house with three sides facing the street and a door will become his happy fortress.

After finding a good apartment and signing a long-term lease, it took half a day to move.

Just as Shenyue Xingyun was about to invite a friend to visit, his new house received an unexpected visitor.

Chapter 257 Trembling

Looking at the gate in front of her, Honjo Aya's eyes were filled with complicated emotions.

She reached out to knock on the door, but her hand remained raised for a long time without actually knocking.

People were coming and going on the street behind her, and some wondered why this tall, beautiful girl was standing in front of the door with her hand raised. But no one knew the intense inner struggle Benjo Aya was going through.

'do not be afraid.'

'What's there to be afraid of?'

'Aya Honjo, he's just a man after all.'

'So what if he's an ex-boyfriend? It's fine.'

He'd seen you at your worst, now that you're dressed properly, what are you afraid of?

Despite repeatedly telling herself this, Honjo Aya hesitated to strike the ground.

Scenes from the past flashed before my eyes.

Humility that is beneath one's feet.

My arrogance reached the clouds.

The version of myself that coldly proposed breaking up, and the version of myself that was helpless after being captured by the enemy.

The image flashed by, and my courage gradually diminished.

"Young lady, are you looking for someone?" A concerned voice came from beside her. Honjo Aya turned around and saw an elderly woman.

The other person kindly said, "Young lady, new residents have just moved into this house. If you're looking for the previous residents, they're probably not here anymore."

"I understand, thank you." Honjo Aya managed a forced smile.

After the old man left, she looked at the door in front of her and raised her hand again.

The recent feelings of frustration welled up in my heart.

He failed to be promoted to Special Jonin.

The progress in ninjutsu training is slow, and the improvement in strength has also reached a bottleneck.

She needs to change, to change her current lifestyle, and to bring new life to her stagnant existence.

That's why she came here today.

"Knock knock." The hand that had been frozen finally fell, and the fair and slender knuckles tapped on the door, making a crisp sound.

Fearing the people inside hadn't heard, Honjo Aya increased the force and did it again.

"Dong dong."

The door finally opened.

The face of the Divine Moon Nebula was revealed.

Bright sunlight streamed through the crack in the door and fell upon it, reflecting a light that made Honjo Aya's heart skip a beat.

"Why is it you?" Shen Yue Xingyun was quite surprised to see the person who came to the door.

The moment she saw the Divine Moon Nebula appear, Honjo Aya straightened her back. Facing the other's question, she said calmly, "I need to talk to you."

Shenyue Xingyun: "What do you want from me?"

Honjo Aya: "Of course it's important."

"Aren't you going to let me in to talk?"

"I don't plan to." Shenyue Xingyun shook her head; "Just say what you need to say here."

"Hurry up and finish what you have to say, I have things to do inside."

Honjo Aya: "Are you sure?"

Shen Yue Xingyun said impatiently, "Stop talking nonsense."

Honjo Aya nodded.

Taking a deep breath and summoning all her courage, she stood at the entrance of the Divine Moon Nebula and shouted loudly.

"God Moon Nebula! I swear...! Have you forgotten about the time you slapped me?!"

Shenyue Nebula was stunned.

He never expected that Honjo Aya would start attacking right there on the street.

As he felt the gazes of the crowd in the distance suddenly converge on him, his expression changed drastically. He grabbed the composed Honjo Aya and pulled her inside, slamming the door shut behind him.

"Are you crazy?!" Shen Yue Xingyun exclaimed angrily as she quickly enveloped the courtyard with a soundproof barrier.

“I’m not crazy,” Honjo Aya said, her neck stiff.

Shenyue Xingyun: "If you're not crazy, why are you shouting!"

Honjo Aya: "Kamizuki Seiun, don't give me that lecturing look."

"I came here today to settle accounts with you!"

Shingetsu Nebula: "?"

He didn't understand.

Who gave the other person the courage?

A Chunin went to the home of an elite Jonin, an ANBU squad leader, and demanded an explanation. The problem is, even if you were in the right, you weren't.

Last time on the Hidden Mist Front, when he was chasing the Green Squad, he did slap them twice, but that was because they had such foul mouths that they deserved it.

Don't you have any self-awareness at all?

"What kind of account are you trying to have with me?"

"Did I hit you too lightly last time?"

Honjo Aya's face was flushed with anger.

"What do you mean?"

"You dare hit me?"

"Kamizuki Nebula, I'm telling you! This is Konoha!"

"If you dare hit me again, believe me, I'll report you to the Hokage!"

Shenyue Xingyun: "If you dare to talk nonsense again, don't blame me for really hitting you."

Honjo Aya let out a mocking laugh.

She looked at Shenyue Xingyun with disdain, and even moved her pretty face closer.

"God Moon Nebula, do you really think you're so great?"

"Go ahead and hit me if you dare!"

Shenyue Xingyun stretched out her hand: "Do you think I really wouldn't dare to hit you?"

Honjo Aya: "Go ahead and hit me! If you're so capable, hit me!"

"I'd look down on you even if you didn't hit me."

Shenyue Xingyun: "..."

He really didn't intend to fight.

But Honjo Aya's expression was just too infuriating.

Her once beautiful face was now met with disdain; she looked at him as if he were trash.

Her long legs gave her a tall and slender figure, so she didn't have to look up at him too much; she could even feel his breath.

"I…"

"What do you mean, 'what do you mean,' are you scared?"

"you…"

"I knew you were a coward!"

"Slap!~" Shenyue Xingyun didn't want to hit him.

But the hand has its own ideas.
