"So that's how it is. You are not a member of the Kaguya clan. You just heard that you have the blood of the Kaguya clan, and you also heard that we are of the same origin as the Kaguya clan, so you want to see if we have any records of corpse bloodline?"

"Yes, I hope that elders Masashi, Takashi, and Shu will help!" Guan Liyuan said.

At this time, Guan Liyuan already knew that the three elders of the Taketori clan were Masashi, Takashi, and Shu. Among them, Shu was the youngest and was considered a young and vigorous faction. The other two were both octogenarians in the clan...

"Well... I will have someone look up the records in the family!" said elder Masashi.

"But the Taketori clan is a family that has existed since ancient times after all, and there are many records, so it may take some time..." Elder Long on the side added.

He said it with sincerity!

If he hadn't seen the elder Xiu trying to say something but getting interrupted every time, Guan Liyuan would have almost believed it...

Although he knew there was something fishy going on, Guan Liyuan had something to ask for and he was on someone else's territory, so he couldn't be aggressive, so he had to pretend he didn't see it and thanked him.

"Jiko, take the guests to the guest house on the west side of the clan's territory to rest... Liyuan, if you have anything, you can talk to Jiko." Jiang Si called a young girl from the Taketori clan.

She was pretty... It would be better if she didn't have the malu eyebrows and the double buns!

"Yes!" Jiko agreed.

The entire Taketori clan's residence can be regarded as a small ninja village, but this "ninja village" is maintained by the clan system... It's a very ancient system!

Coming out of the place where the elders were meeting, Guan Liyuan saw Taketori Sora again. The latter glared at him, but thinking of what "Brother Xiu" said, he didn't do anything.

Guan Liyuan noticed that when Ji Zi saw Kong, her eyes were filled with fear and admiration. He couldn't help but ask her indirectly...

"Who is this 'Kong'? The younger brother of the clan elder Xiu?"

"No, Lord Kong and the clan elder Xiu are not brothers, but Lord Kong is an orphan and was raised by the clan elder Xiu since he was a child."

"Lord Kong? Do you admire him very much?"

"Of course! Lord Kong is the first warrior of our Taketori clan... Lord Liyuan can fight Lord Kong to a draw, you must be very powerful too!" Ji Zi said without any defense.

Ji Zi was not a meticulous person. The reason why she was assured to receive Guan Liyuan was because she didn't know any secrets at all...

"Kong is the first warrior? Stronger than the three clan elders?" Guan Liyuan said in surprise.

Originally, after he was sure to experience the strength of "Kong", he thought that the Taketori clan was full of hidden talents!

Just Taketori Kong, plus the three clan elders, wouldn't there be four elite jonin? It's

totally unscientific!

Are the Kusagakure so strong? And if the Taketori clan is so strong, Konoha should not dare to rashly help its allies when the third generation has just passed away and the internal situation is still unstable...

"The three clan elders... are highly respected in the clan, and they are all very strong, but not strong in military strength!" Kiko said as a matter of course. Guan

Liyuan also understood at this time that there is still a difference between the clan system and the ninja village system, just like the Uchiha clan at the beginning, Fugaku was not necessarily the strongest in the clan...

This is reasonable. The Taketori clan only has one elite ninja, Taketori Sora, which is barely acceptable.

At this time, Guan Liyuan also asked about the war with the Kusanagi. Speaking of this, Kiko, who looked quiet, seemed very excited. It seems that the Taketori clan's war mobilization is in place.

Judging from Kiko's expression and tone, the Taketori clan is full of confidence in victory and is ready to seize the ruling power of the Kusanagi Kingdom!

However, it was limited to "full of confidence". Jizi had no idea about the strength of the Kusagakure Village and the Taketori Clan...

Guan Liyuan temporarily rested in the Taketori Clan, and then immediately used another form of "spiritual communication" to enter a meditative state and communicate with Kurama.

Because Kurama can absorb natural energy on its own, it can not only gradually restore its strength, but also its own energy is self-consistent. The distance between the incarnation and Guan Liyuan is very small, and it does not need to consume the professional power of "alien summoner". Although

the Taketori Clan is not as strong as imagined, Guan Li still did not let them join, but asked Kurama and Bai to find out the strength of the Kusagakure and the Taketori Clan, as well as the current battle situation of both sides...

At night, when Guan Liyuan was thinking about the attitude of the Taketori Clan and speculating on their intentions, he suddenly heard footsteps outside!

Guan Liyuan usually uses the natural energy of the outside world to refine chakra, so he is very sensitive to the slightest movement around him...

"Who is it!" Guan Liyuan asked in a deep voice.

Although he didn't think the Taketori clan had any reason to assassinate him at night, it was a fact that someone was approaching stealthily.

"Dear guest, it's me, Taketori Osamu."

To Guan Liyuan's surprise, the voice of the Taketori clan elder came from outside the door!

"Clan elder Xiu? Please come in." Guan Liyuan was puzzled, and he also slightly straightened his clothes to show him proper respect.

Seeing that Taketori Osamu was not wearing the clothes of the clan elder, but a black casual suit, and his previous actions, he knew that he was "visiting secretly"!

As an elder of the clan, it was obvious that Taketori Osamu needed to hide someone in the Taketori clan...

"I'm sorry to come and disturb your rest." Xiu said politely.

"Clan elder Xiu is too polite, just call me 'Liyuan'."

"Well, Liyuan, I'm telling the truth... I came here this time to confirm the purpose of your visit to the Taketori clan!" Xiu said seriously.

"Elder Xiu is worrying too much. What I said during the day is the reason why I came here... at least most of the reason, the main reason."

Taketori Xiu looked at Guan Liyuan for a long time, but he didn't see any signs of lying.

"Elder Xiu asked this specifically, is there something you want to say?" Guan Liyuan still remembered Xiu's hesitation during the day.

Xiu thought for a moment and said, "That's right, if you want the practice method and usage skills of the 'Corpse Vein', in fact... before the Kaguya clan launched a coup in the Hidden Mist Village, they secretly sent a batch of information to the Taketori clan, saying that if the coup failed, someone would come to take it... but it seems that something unexpected happened. No one has been seen for six or seven years. You are not from the Kaguya clan, so maybe their backup plan has also gone wrong."

Guan Liyuan showed a look of surprise when he heard this... The Kaguya clan has a "backup" of the classics here?

But Guan Liyuan immediately realized that things were not that simple!

Taketori Masashi and Taketori Takashi did not mention a word about this matter during the day...

"Ahem, the elders Masashi and Takashi probably think that you are not a direct descendant of the Kaguya clan, but just a remnant of the clan that has drifted away, so they don't know what to do for a while." Xiu explained.

Guan Liyuan knew that since Xiu came to him actively and brought up this matter, he should be interested in cooperation...

"I want that information, what do you need me to do? And... why are you cooperating with me directly?"
