Since he has decided to pay the money, Hyōjin can't stay out of the aftermath.
Otherwise, if the Sand Crypsis intercepts the convoy and uses the lives of the survivors to threaten Queen Loulan, then it will be hard for Queen Loulan to keep her mouth shut.
Although Queen Loulan doesn't know Hyōjin's true identity, she has witnessed the whole process of the artificial tailed beast's birth, so even if she only leaks the information to the Sand Crypsis, it will still be a hidden danger to Hyōjin.
Thinking of this, Hyōjin immediately made up his mind and said to Queen Loulan: "Time is precious, you should move now, I will deal with the Sand Crypsis."
After noticing the abnormality of the Dragon Vein, according to common sense, Sand Village would definitely send an elite team to the ruins of Roran City to investigate the situation.
This process will take at least half a day to two days, it depends on the Sand Crypsis's reaction speed and how much they value the dragon vein.
After finding out that the dragon vein has been stolen, they will send the news back to the village, and the village will issue a new order to gather people to search for the Loulan survivors. This series of messages will take at least one to two days.
In other words, the Loulan survivors will have about two to three days to catch up.
As long as they can grasp this two to three days, it is very likely that the Loulan survivors will successfully escape from the Country of Wind and enter the Country of Rain controlled by the Akatsuki.
After all, the Country of Rain and the Country of Wind are neighbors, as long as they leave the Country of Wind, they will be safe.
Queen Loulan naturally also realized that time is precious, she nodded and asked: "You will escort us out of the Country of Wind, right?"
Hyōjin lightly said: "I can't give you any guarantee."
If there is no accident, he will secretly cover the Roran survivors' convoy as they enter the Country of Rain, but if Yondaime Kazekage personally leads a team to chase after the Roran survivors' convoy, then he can only protect himself.
Queen Loulan silently nodded, although she was a little disappointed, she understood that the more it is like this, the more it means that Hyōjin has no intention to deceive her.
Although the truth was sometimes hard to accept, it was still better than a lie.
Queen Loulan no longer hesitated. She nodded at Hyōjin and ran towards the oasis in the distance.
After running for a dozen meters, she stopped and turned to Hyōjin. "I'm no longer the Loulan Queen. My name is Sala!"
After saying that, Sara did not look back and ran all the way to the Lou Lan survivors' convoy.
Hyōjin, dressed in a black robe, stood quietly on the sand dune, watching her leave.
Not long after, the caravan of Lou Lan survivors camped in Manto Oasis was ready to set off.
Hyōjin did not immediately follow the convoy. Instead, he shifted his gaze to the other side.
Sand Crypsis has been arranging two ninjas to monitor the Loulan survivors' convoy. This point, Hyōjin had already discovered when he was looking for the Loulan survivors' convoy with the Grass Ninja Squad.
Therefore, in order to ensure that the Sand Crypsis will not find out the whereabouts of the Loulan survivors' convoy, he must first solve the two Sand Crypsis ninjas responsible for monitoring the Loulan survivors' convoy.
"Byakugan, open!"
After opening the Byakugan, Hyōjin glanced around and finally found two very weak Chakra reactions in one direction.
Judging from Chakra's reaction, the two Sand Crypsis ninjas responsible for monitoring the Loulan survivors' convoy should be ordinary Genin, so he was too lazy to go there in person. He directly took out the Three Generations Kazekage puppet and gave it an order to kill them.
It didn't take long for the Three Generations Kazekage puppet to easily kill the two Sand Crypsis Genin in the distance.
After dealing with this small hidden danger, Hyōjin put away the Three Generations Kazekage puppet while wrapping his robe tightly and following the Loulan survivors' convoy from a distance.
With leisure, Hyōjin pondered about the Dragon Vein.
Regarding the origin of the Dragon Vein, he vaguely has an answer. This Dragon Vein is not a natural product of the Shinobi World, or to be more precise, it is not entirely a natural product of the Shinobi World.
The core part of the Dragon Vein, that is, the Dragon Vein Source, should be the same as Otsutsuki Kaguya, which came from the outside world.
However, unlike the Otsutsuki Clan that plunder energy, this Dragon Vein Source did not come to the Shinobi World intentionally. Its arrival is more like an accident, and when it came to the Shinobi World, it should have been seriously injured. The degree of injury is so heavy that it had to establish a contract with the local nobles in order to obtain the worship of the local nobles.
This is the reason why the Dragon Vein has a contract relationship with the Loulan Queen.
After that, the Dragon Vein Source began to dive into the ground, trying to recover itself by absorbing the power of the Earth Vein.
However, in the process, the Dragon Vein Source seemed to have some problems, or it was attacked, which caused its Source to completely collapse.
The trace of obsession it left behind, after thousands of years of nurturing, produced a new Dragon Vein Origin, a brand new and ignorant Dragon Vein Origin.
This brand new Dragon Vein Origin had forgotten everything in the past, so it stopped absorbing the energy of the earth veins and stayed in the underground of the ancient Loulan City. It would only occasionally respond to the calls of the Loulan Queen's bloodline.
Because of this, the Loulan Queen was able to maintain this unequal contract relationship.
Otherwise, with the size of the Dragon Vein, which is comparable to the Chakra of the Tailed Beast, the ordinary people of the Loulan Queen would not have the ability to maintain a contract relationship with it.
"As urgent as the law …"
Recalling the words of the Loulan Queen, Sala, when she comforted the Dragon Vein, Hyōjin's thoughts suddenly scattered.
The sentence pattern of "As urgent as the law" did not match the ninja world, so when Sala said it, Hyōjin's first reaction was surprise, very surprise.
And this sentence pattern was undoubtedly made when the first Dragon Vein Source signed the contract with the ancestors of the Loulan Queen. So, from this sentence pattern, Hyōjin could vaguely guess where the first Dragon Vein Source came from.
Collecting his scattered thoughts, Hyōjin looked up at the sky and muttered to himself, "What is this world like?"
Just as Hyōjin was feeling emotional, the Four Generations Of Kazekage in the Sand Crypsis received the news that the Dragon Vein was stolen.
Staring at the information in his hand, the Four Generations Of Kazekage's face turned ashen. He asked the two consulting elders beside him, "Could it be Muye?"
Chiyo snorted coldly, "The seal of the Four Generations Naruto is not that easy to break. Who else could steal the Dragon Vein so quickly other than Muye?"
