I was broadcast live while taking the Chunin Exam!

"Then it's a deal. I'll be going now!"

A woman's voice came from inside.

Kitahara Kaede sensed that the other person seemed to be holding back something.

But it's not appropriate to inquire about it.

Therefore, it was said.

"Okay, how should I give you the things then?"

"It's enough that I know you. I'll come find you once you've caught the Stone Mountain Beast."

Her voice was cheerful, as if what she hadn't found before was nothing special.

Kitahara Kaede was somewhat confused.

But now that we've finally obtained the map, we can finally set off.

The woman who left then began to hop and skip in the fog.

"They traded a map for a Stone Mountain Beast! Outsiders are so easy to fool!"

Then, he started humming a tune.

"Stone Mountain Beast, Oh Stone Mountain Beast!"

.....

At this moment, Kitahara Kaede returned the way she came.

It was already afternoon when he issued the secret order again.

I didn't expect that just finding a map would take so much time.

Then, Kitahara Kaede took out the small coin.

The location of the Daoist lineage is clearly marked on the map.

To Kitahara Kaede's surprise,

The location of the Lundao lineage and the Shishan lineage are not far apart.

Kitahara Kaede still remembers when he first arrived.

Then I saw the Lun Dao lineage and the Shi Shan lineage exchanging blows.

They ended up fighting.

However, later on, the lineage of Daoists had the old woman interfere.

No one from the Shishan lineage came out.

I reminisced a little, but didn't think too much about it.

Kitahara Kaede then headed towards the location of the Dao Discussion lineage.

You should know that he has to compete against Hiruzen Otsutsuki tomorrow.

He doesn't have much time.

After descending the rocky mountain range, Kitahara Kaede followed the map's directions.

The conditions in the upper and lower realms of the planet of ultimate evil...

They all look pretty much the same from the outside.

However, when it comes to the inner workings, they are worlds apart.

For example, the road that Kitahara Kaede is currently traveling on.

It's a straight road.

It was just obscured by the dense foliage of the huge trees above.

The villages here are not isolated like those in the lower realm.

The villages in the upper realm are a connected whole.

Actually, there's not much difference; the lower bound looks more like a smaller upper bound.

Kitahara Kaede didn't look at the scenery closely after seeing it once.

Soon, they arrived at the residence of the Daoist lineage.

The headquarters of the Daoist lineage is located above a circular lake.

In the middle of the lake are many enormous stone discs.

Those who follow the Daoist lineage live on it.

As luck would have it, Kitahara Kaede ran into an old acquaintance as soon as he arrived at the door.

This old acquaintance was someone Kitahara Kaede didn't really want to run into.

Because, in Kitahara Kaede's impression, the other party was somewhat difficult to get along with.

In the distance, an old woman with faltering steps walked towards Kitahara Kaede.

That old woman was naturally Otsutsuki Naruto.

When the other party did not see Kitahara Kaede, they traveled at a leisurely pace.

After she discovered Kitahara Kaede.

In an instant, they were in front of Kitahara Kaede.

"I wonder why the collaborator of the wise man has come to our school of thought to discuss the Dao?"

The old woman spoke normally.

However, Kitahara Kaede's name always sounded a bit strange.

I always feel like the other person is subtly criticizing me.

"I have come to see Ōtsutsuki Haru."

The old woman raised an eyebrow slightly and said calmly.

"Come in with me."

Kitahara Kaede followed behind the old woman.

Then, the old woman slowed down her walking speed again.

Walking step by step.

Kitahara Kaede wasn't in a hurry.

If he walks slowly, he can appreciate the scenery of the lineage of Daoist discourse.

The composition of the headquarters of the Daoist lineage is very simple.

Four huge discs floated on the water.

Above are some buildings.

There were some ornamental objects in the lake, but Kitahara Kaede didn't see any fish or shrimp.

In terms of environment, it is top-notch.

However, this place lacks a bit of vitality.

It looks lifeless.

This is a way to pass the time.

Kitahara Kaede was never bored during the journey.

Until the old woman spoke.

He still seemed a little unsatisfied.

Chapter 468 Disgusting old woman, Kitahara Kaede: I've disliked you for a long time!

All of this was naturally done intentionally by the old woman.

However, she did not expect Kitahara Kaede to be so calm and collected.

No rush at all.

When she arrived at the door, her gaze towards Kitahara Kaede was full of provocation.

However, Kitahara Kaede didn't pay any attention to the old woman's attitude.

They didn't even try to figure out what the old woman meant.

I walked past the old woman.

Pushing open the door, I saw Otsutsuki Haru sitting next to a small tea table.

It looks like we've been waiting for a long time.

After Kitahara Kaede came in.

The other person then put down the teapot in their hand.

Kitahara Kaede looked around and didn't see a single maid.

What are you standing there for?

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind.

Kitahara Kaede was startled.

Before he knew it, the old woman Otsutsuki Naruto appeared beside him.

"Can you please stop appearing and disappearing so mysteriously?!"

Kitahara Kaede was speechless.

In response, Haru Otsutsuki offered an explanation.

"You can't blame her for that; she just came in after praying."

"Pray?" Kitahara Kaede asked, puzzled.

Meanwhile, Otsutsuki Naruto, unaware of any other life, teleported to Otsutsuki Haru's side.

“You are not one of us who discuss the Way, so naturally you don’t know about prayer.”

Naturally, but there was no intention to explain it to Kitahara Kaede.

Kitahara Kaede knew that the old woman still didn't like him.

So he walked towards Otsutsuki Haru.

I randomly picked a chair from around the coffee table and sat down.

"actually......"

I was just about to explain.

Otsutsuki Haru then gestured for Kitahara Kaede to stop.

He handed a cup of tea to Kitahara Kaede.

"No rush, have a cup of tea first."

Kitahara Kaede's eyes darted around; this Otsutsuki Haru seemed to be a little different from what he had imagined.

As soon as I picked up my teacup, I saw the murderous look in Otsutsuki Naru's eyes.

Kitahara Kaede had no choice but to avoid it.

Haru Otsutsuki glanced behind him.

Said lightly.

"They are guests. If you visit them and they treat you this way, how will you feel?"

Otsutsuki Naru quickly apologized to Kitahara Kaede.

"It was my fault, please forgive me, Kitahara-kun."

Kitahara Kaede smiled faintly.

"It's no big deal. I'll just have Xiaoqin take good care of me when I get back."
