Turning her eyes, Youxiang looked at Lei Luo with a smile, and replied slowly: "I mentioned to you the orthodox dispute between me and that boy Yuyi..."
"I believe you also understand that for people like me and Yuyi, power and wealth are just passing clouds. The truly valuable thing is inheritance, that is..."
After a pause, seeing Lei Luo listening intently, Youxiang scratched her head, her expression slightly depressed, as if she couldn't find a good word to express her meaning.
During this process, Lei Luo did not interrupt, and quietly watched Youxiang rummaging through her intestines. It was not until a few minutes passed that she took a deep breath and said from a different angle:
"My purpose is very simple, which is to pass on the tradition of the witch lineage smoothly. After all, all my masters, senior sisters and junior sisters have all died long ago."
"If one day I really die without even a scumbag left, I really feel ashamed of my master's instructions, so I want to find a successor, and you look good."
"To be honest, I have been holding a breath in my heart..."
Seeing Youxiang falling into language tangle again, Lei Luo finally couldn't bear it this time, and simply summed up for the other party:
"You want me to successfully cultivate spiritual power, and then use this power to defeat Otsutsuki Hagoromo's successor? Ultimately prove that spiritual power is no worse than chakra?"
Snap!
Youxiang frowned, smiled and snapped her fingers, nodding her head like a chicken pecking at rice, but then she showed a bitter face and said in a low voice:
"But you are essentially a ninja, and you can also be regarded as Hagoromo's disciple. Even if you defeat Hagoromo's descendant in the future, you can't say who is superior in spiritual power or chakra."
"This is where I struggle."
Regarding the so-called merits of inheritance and the superiority of orthodoxy, Lei Luo really had no interest in competing, but Youxiang seemed to care about it, so he considered his words and said calmly:
"To tell you the truth, Otsutsuki Hagoromo and I have already fought. In the end, I won, and the old guy went back to the Pure Land in despair."
Hearing this, Youxiang was greatly surprised. She looked at Lei Luo carefully, then leaned forward and sniffed with her small nose.
This scene made Lei Luo feel uncomfortable. He felt that Youxiang should be using some ability to perceive himself so that he could judge the truth. This guess seemed to be correct?
"Well, I believe you defeated that boy in Hagoromo." Retracting her body, Youxiang nodded thoughtfully, but then she changed the subject and said in a preaching tone:
"However, don't flatter yourself. Hagoromo is a dead person. Even if he reappears in the world with the help of chakra, his strength will never reach the state he was in during his lifetime."
"In other words, most of the people you win will be the extremely weakened version of Hagoromo, and I..." Pointing to her chest, Youxiang talked confidently:
"What we are dealing with is the mature version of Hagoromo!"
"That boy's strength was at its absolute peak when he fought with me! Not to mention it was compared to him after death, even in his old age, there was a huge difference!"
Looking at Youxiang's proud appearance despite defeat, Lei Luo didn't bother to argue with her. Now that the problem had been clarified, he simply coughed:
"Okay, I believe you for the time being. When can you start practicing spiritual power?"
"If you want, you can do it anytime."
"Then let's start now, let me get familiar with it first."
…
In less than a day, the mission to the Kingdom of Ghosts was over. However, to everyone's expectation, Shion was dead, Asho was dead, the demons were dead, but Huang Quan was still alive.
Unfortunately, Lei Luo's original intention was not like this. Unfortunately, the development of things was also beyond his expectation.
In short, all the nobles and officials of the Kingdom of Ghosts were wiped out by Huang Quan's subordinates and the army of puppets. The only one who could make the decision, Ziyuan, became the old monster Youxiang. The entire country was leaderless.
Under this situation, Lei Luo was too lazy to go back to the village to explain the details to Minato, so he simply entrusted the power of the Demon Country to Huangquan, the only remaining local, and then ordered Kakashi and others to assist.
In this way, after thousands of twists and turns, the enemy finally turned into a companion. The atmosphere permeating the atmosphere between Huang Quan and the Konoha ninja was somewhat embarrassing.
As for the reward for the mission that Shion promised at the beginning, Yu Xiang, who had obtained all her memories, simply told the location of the treasure. Lei Luo ordered Kakashi to dig out, and the matter was considered to be over.
Regarding the Kingdom of Ghosts, Lei Luo has little desire to annex it. After all, it is too far away from the mainland of the Kingdom of Fire. Even if it is controlled, it can only be regarded as an enclave, which will be difficult to manage.
Unfortunately, the top leaders of the Kingdom of Ghosts were all dead. For the sake of the people at the bottom, Lei Luo sent someone to inform the cabinet. The Prime Minister and others would discuss the specific matters.
There was no need to elaborate on the many complicated matters. Lei Luo briefly explained a few words to his subordinates, and then he enthusiastically started to practice his spiritual power with Youxiang. The two occupied the witch's palace and lived in seclusion all day long without being seen.
At the same time, in the Country of Water, in Kirigakure Village, someone noticed the sudden change in the Country of Ghosts, and found Mizukage to talk in detail about what happened there.
"Bing, a very difficult monster has appeared."
In Mizukage's office, a white figure emerged from the wall and floated in front of the desk. Bing raised his head, looked at the old man in white robe suspended in mid-air, and asked in surprise:
"What's the meaning?"
"It means that you and I are likely to be in trouble in the future, big trouble..." The Immortal of Six Paths came to the world again. His face was a little ugly at the moment. After some words, he told his feelings truthfully.
After listening to the story of the Immortal of Six Paths, he speculated that Bing put his hand on his forehead and frowned in silence. After a while, Fang sighed helplessly and said: "In other words, that old monster named Youxiang is very strong?"
"That's right."
"Are you sure she is hostile to us?"
"We are inseparable..." Hagoromo pondered for a while, recalling the conflict between himself and Youxiang in his early years. Although he wanted to rush over and seal the other party, the current situation...
"My intuition tells me that Youxiang's unblocking is most likely related to Lei Luo. In other words, Lei Luo has received a powerful helper. You'd better be mentally prepared."
Hagoromo doesn't know Alaya's existence. For him, the biggest variable in the ninja world is Lei Luo. With the seal he set back then, Yuxiang will never be able to break it easily.
Therefore, there must be a heavyweight involved in this matter, and that person, Hagoromo, is almost certain to be Lei Luo. No one else in the ninja world has such ability.
Looking at Yuyi's solemn expression, Bing quickly excluded Youxiang from the category of "miscellaneous fish" and upgraded her to the same level as her, Lei Luo, Yuyi and others.
