In the darkness of the night, a group of figures wearing gray-black robes and various animal masks on their faces leaped forward like an arrow, as fast as lightning, just like ghosts of the night.
What these people don't know is that while they were running at full speed, there was a figure following them slowly, as if he doesn't exist, but they didn't notice him at all.
And this person is naturally Ye Xuan.
Since Ye Xuan noticed that Uchiha Yakuza, who was in the Anbu, was acting strangely when he was about to close the shop, he had left a clone there, and then he went out in person.
However, so far, Ye Xuan doesn't know where these people are going or what their mission is, so he can only follow them slowly.
Although with Ye Xuan's cultivation base, he can easily monitor every movement of the entire Konoha Village if he spreads out his Divine Sense, but for the sake of caution, he didn't do so. He always feels that there are too many unreasonable things in this world, as if there is some hidden conspiracy, so he doesn't dare to be so unscrupulous. Under normal circumstances, he is just an ordinary wood carving shop owner.
Even if he is monitoring Uchiha Yakuza, he only left a wisp of Divine Sense on Uchiha Yakuza, at most, he can only ensure that he can monitor Uchiha Yakuza's movements, but there is no other action.
Following Uchiha Yakuza this time, Ye Xuan just wants to see what is the reason why Uchiha Yakuza's Spiritual Energy has increased so much in the past six months.
Following the Anbu team of five, Kuroto ran for nearly a night, almost 300 miles, and then the group found a cave in a nearby mountain and started to rest.
"This direction seems to be the Land of Rain or the Land of Grass, or the Land of Long?" Following behind this group of people, Ye Xuan glanced at Uchiha Yakuza and the others who have already hidden in the cave to rest, and slightly raised his eyebrows.
These members of the Anbu are very self-disciplined, no one spoke along the way, and no one said anything about the mission.
However, this is also normal, after all, it is the assassination unit of Hokage. If there is no such quality, then the quality of Konoha's ninjas is too poor.
Without disturbing these people, Ye Xuan extended his hand to summon a cloud. Then, his figure disappeared into the cloud.
During this period, two of them went out of the cave to hunt some prey. After roasting and eating them, they continued their journey until night fell.
Konoha Village is quite far from the borders of the Land of Grass, the Land of Rain, and the Land of Long, and the group has been traveling at night, so after walking for five days, they finally entered the territory of the Land of Grass.
After arriving at the Country of Grass, the group headed towards the capital of the Country of Grass. When they arrived, the group began to act on their own to gather intelligence.
Only now did Ye Xuan realize that these people were targeting the Five Great Nobles of the Country of Grass.
Originally, the Land of Grass signed an alliance agreement with Konoha. Of course, this so-called alliance actually provides military support to Konoha, and the Land of Grass needs to transfer most of the tasks in the country to Konoha, and they need to provide a certain amount of military support to Konoha every year.
To put it bluntly, it is actually the younger brother needs to pay tribute to the older brother, somewhat similar to the relationship between the United States and Korea on Earth.
However, the Land of Grass is located between the two major countries, the Land of Wood and the Land of Fire. Even if they signed an alliance agreement with Konoha, the people of the Land of Earth don't recognize this alliance, and because of the domestic economic decline, the Rock Village of the Land of Earth has always wanted to defeat Konoha and occupy the vast and rich land of the Land of Fire.
Therefore, the Land of Grass, which is caught in the middle, has become a mouse in the bellows.
This time, it is said that the Daimyo of the Land of Grass is about to die. The Daimyo has two sons, and under normal circumstances, naturally, the eldest son will continue to be the Daimyo of the Land of Grass.
However, the youngest son of the Land of Grass is very unwilling and wants to see if he can use the Land of Earth to kill his elder brother and ascend to the position of Daimyo.
Therefore, he united several famous nobles in the country, plus the ninjas of the Rock Village, and then prepared to kill the eldest son of the Daimyo after the death of the Daimyo, tear up the alliance agreement with Konoha, and turn to the Land of Earth.
This matter was discovered by the spies of Konoha who have been working in the territory of the Land of Grass. Konoha naturally can't tolerate the betrayal of its younger brother, otherwise, the Land of Earth wouldn't even know when the Land of Earth would attack the city, so this time, Konoha sent Uchiha Yue and a team of Anbu ninjas to deal with this matter.
After two days of investigation and evidence collection, the five Anbu finally began to act. They planned to deal with the four nobles first. In order to act quickly, the group was divided into four teams. The others dealt with one noble each, and because Uchiha Yue was young, he followed another Anbu with special Jonin Jonin.
With the strength of Ye Xuan, it is naturally very easy for him to divide himself into several clones, but he didn't, he just followed behind Uchiha Yue's team and watched them sneak into a noble's mansion and start killing.
Ye Xuan had been paying attention to Uchiha Yakuza, following behind him. He saw that after Uchiha Yakuza entered the noble's mansion, as long as he met someone, he would kill them, and after killing them, he would also touch the corpse.
"Huh?!" Seeing this, Ye Xuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and a golden light flashed in his eyes. Looking at Uchiha Yue, he found that Yue's Spiritual Energy has increased a little.
'What's going on, Spiritual Energy increases after killing someone? Is it related to the person he killed, or is it because he touched the corpse after locking them up? ' Although there was a trace of suspicion in his heart, Ye Xuan didn't take any action and continued to watch Uchiha Yue kill and touch the corpse, and continued to watch his Spiritual Energy increase little by little.
'It's a bit strange, it seems that he used some method to increase his Spiritual Energy when he touched the corpse!' Ye Xuan's eyes flickered as he looked at Uchiha Yue in front of him, and finally, after Uchiha Yue killed and touched the corpse again, Ye Xuan opened his Divine Eyes and saw that as Uchiha Yue touched the corpse, a wisp of Soul Fluctuation seemed to be absorbed from Uchiha Yue's hand.
"So that's how it is!" Seeing this, Ye Xuan finally understood why Uchiha Yakuza's Psychic Energy would increase a lot every time he went out to carry out a mission.
The reason is that he used some kind of secret method to absorb the remaining Spiritual Energy of the dead.
But the question is, did Uchiha Yue bring this secret method with him when he traveled through time, or did he get it from somewhere?
