"At your age, you've mastered the Palm Immortal Technique. You're not a loser; you're a genius."

"This time, barring any unforeseen circumstances, there will be renowned Jonin leading the teams in the graduation class assignments, so the future looks promising."

Shenyue Xingyun could only laugh awkwardly: "It was a coincidence."

"It was purely by chance."

Hinata Kaede gave a meaningful smile.

She didn't believe Shenyue Xingyun's answer at all, but she was too lazy to investigate further. Compared to things like the Immortal Palm Technique, she was more concerned with other matters.

How many girlfriends do you have left?

Shen Yue Xingyun's heart tightened: "Why...why are you asking this?"

Hinata Kaede gave a wicked smile, slowly approaching Shingetsu Seiun. Under the latter's tense expression, she whispered, "What is it?"

"As one of your girlfriends, am I not even allowed to ask about your relationship status?"

Shenyue Xingyun sighed helplessly, "Try to be normal."

"Not many, only about twenty."

Chapter 27: Another Confession

"Twenty or so?" A hint of surprise appeared in Hyuga Kaede's eyes. "I remember at this time last year, there were at least forty or fifty."

"How come so much has been lost in just one year?"

Shenyue Xingyun sighed, "Graduation season is breakup season, didn't you know that?"

"After the graduation exams last year, many people joined the ninja team, and we saw each other less and less. Many of us broke up."

Hyuga Kaede: "Are you willing to give it up?"

Shenyue Xingyun: "What's there to be reluctant about?"

"It's just a few dozen girlfriends, what's the big deal?"

"But it's you." Shingetsu Seiun looked at Hinata Kaede and spoke his mind.

"I originally thought that you would be among the people who broke up with me."

"I didn't expect you to keep quiet about it."

Hyuga Kaede smiled as usual: "Do you really want me to break up with you?"

Shenyue Xingyun shook her head and said, "No, that's not the case."

"I just didn't expect it."

"Of all my girlfriends and ex-girlfriends, you are the most talented and the strongest."

"Objectively speaking, it is also the most beautiful."

"And you come from the Hyuga clan. Someone as outstanding as you would actually be willing to be a womanizer and loser's girlfriend. Sometimes I just don't understand it."

Upon hearing this, Hyuga Kaede smiled and extended her hand.

Her fair and slender fingers gently stroked Shen Yuexingyun's face, her eyes filled with a hint of infatuation.

"What's so hard to understand?"

"I'm just an ordinary woman."

Shingetsu Seiun: "No, you are not an ordinary woman; you are from the prestigious Hyuga clan."

"What a load of bull!" Hyuga Kaede blurted out, her dissatisfaction undisguised.

Fortunately, there is a soundproof barrier, so there is no need to worry about others hearing it.

Hyuga Kaede continued, "If I could, I would rather be a woman without a family."

"That way I won't have to stay in that oppressive family, thinking about killing people every day."

"Then I won't have to be pointed at and criticized by those good-for-nothings from the main family, and I won't have to run around doing things for them!"

Shenyue Xingyun remained silent.

He looked at the headband tightly tied on Hinata Kaede's forehead and understood why she had suddenly become so angry.

A caged bird.

The culprit who imprisons all members of the Hyuga branch family.

To break through it requires extraordinary power.

Seemingly sensing the gaze, Hyuga Kaede looked up and met Shingetsu Seiun's pitying yet compassionate look.

She suddenly chuckled.

"never mind."

"Why am I telling you all this?"

"We rarely see each other, let's not talk about these things."

"Nebula, do you remember?"

"I love you. As long as you don't break up with me, I will love you forever and ever."

"Unless I'm dead."

"Pah, pah, pah!" Shenyue Xingyun hurriedly said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"It's getting late, I should go."

There are people waiting for me outside.

As he spoke, he got up to tidy up the bookshelf, but he was pulled down by the foot halfway up and sat back down on the ground.

Shingetsu Seiun's expression changed as he watched Hyuga Kaede's smile suddenly turn dangerous.

"What are you trying to do now?!"

Hyuga Kaede: "Let that person wait a little longer."

"Spend another hour with me."

Shenyue Xingyun: "..."

An hour and a half later.

The bamboo house by the river is where Shinzuki Seiun and Nohara Rin learned and exchanged medical ninjutsu.

Nohara Rin had been waiting here for a long time.

She stood at the door of the bamboo house, gazing at the calm water in front of her, lost in thought.

The sunset cast a red glow on the water, and occasionally a fish would surface, creating shimmering ripples, just like her heart, rising and falling.

I don't know how much time passed in a daze, but then I heard the sound of footsteps approaching quickly in the distance.

Nohara Rin turned her head and saw Shinzuki Seiun.

The boy, whose face was slightly flushed and whose brilliance was even more dazzling than the sunset, seemed to have rushed over.

"Lin."

"Wait a long time?"

"I just arrived too," Nohara Rin answered instinctively. Only after saying that did she realize that she had been waiting for almost an hour.

But this is not important.

The important thing is what she has to say today. And the questions that need to be clarified.

"nebula."

"today…"

“What happened today was my fault,” Shinzuki Seiun interrupted Nohara Rin’s question.

He looked down into Nohara Rin's uneasy eyes, his tone sincere.

"Lin."

I know what you want to ask.

"You want to ask me when I mastered the Palm Immortal Technique."

"You want to ask me why I pretended not to know medical ninjutsu, but instead you're asking me."

"There's only one reason." He paused, then looked at Nohara Rin with incredibly sincere eyes.

"I like you."

I like you very, very much.

Shen Yue Xingyun did not explain that he knew nothing about medical ninjutsu and skills other than the Sage Art, and such an answer did not conform to the logic of ordinary people.

No one can master the Palm Immortal Technique without knowing how to suture or clean a wound. It sounds as absurd as going to the battlefield to fight before even starting school.

Therefore, he chose to feint to the east while attacking in the west, and to relieve the siege of Wei by attacking Zhao.

In the sunset, the boy's sincere confession struck Nohara Rin's heart like a heavy hammer.

The wind is blowing, the clouds are moving, and the fish are swimming.

Nohara Rin was lost in thought.

At the entrance of the bamboo house, the girl stood frozen in place, a moment of bewilderment flashing in her wide eyes.

To be precise, he was completely stunned by Shenyue Xingyun's unconventional confession.

Three seconds later, a blush, more vibrant than the sky, rose on the girl's face.

"Nebula, what are you saying again!" Nohara Rin gripped the hem of her skirt with both hands, twisting it incessantly until her knuckles turned white.

She felt something thumping in her chest, as if it wanted to burst out.

Shenyue Xingyun confessed his feelings to her again!

This time, it wasn't in front of everyone.

This time, there was no provocation from Obito or any teachers watching.
