Chapter 241: War Begins
After Rong Yi left Xingying, he did not go to Shilang immediately, but walked into a room. In the middle of the room, there was an old man sitting cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed.
When Rong Yi came in, he opened his eyes and asked calmly, "Who is coming?"
"It was a guy named A Fei. He had a very strange ninjutsu that prevented him from effectively analyzing intelligence, but his strength was definitely impressive. He defeated our four ninjas in an instant."
"His intention must be to trade 'Star' with us."
"What did Xingying say?"
"Master Xingying asked me to invite that scoundrel over and to arrange for manpower and preparations."
"Alas, he's still like this. Rongyi, just do as Xingying said, but find someone to send the young people in the village away."
"Yes, Elder, I will withdraw first."
"Well, go ahead."
"Mr. Afei, please come this way. Lord Xingying is waiting for you." Rong Yixiang Shiro bowed slightly and made a gesture of invitation.
"Really? Thank you for your hard work."
"Of course. This way, please."
Afterwards, Shiro followed Rongyi and walked towards Xingying. Shiro also noticed the secret sentries along the way, but he didn't say anything. He just turned the ring on his hand and prepared for battle.
After a while, Rongyi brought Shiro to a larger room and made a gesture of invitation to Shiro.
"Sir, Mr. A Fei has arrived."
"Let him in."
"Mr. A Fei, please."
"Sorry for the trouble." After saying that, Shiro pushed open the door and walked in.
Not only Xingying was sitting inside, there were also three old men. One of them was the one Rong Yi had just met, and he was also the most steady one, commonly known as a man of great talent.
As for how Shiro could tell, it was because he knew the legendary face-reading technique!
Aside from the elder, the disdain of the other three was clearly written on their faces, making it hard not to notice.
"Daughter of Akatsuki, Ah Fei, would like to make a deal with your village. Please forgive me if I have offended you in any way." After saying this, Shiro bowed slightly.
At the same time, he revealed the ring wrapped in a "jade" shell in his hand. The uniform and the ring were enough to prove that there was a mature organization behind him.
All of this was done by Shi Lang to ensure the smooth progress of the transaction, but Shi Lang ultimately underestimated the stupidity of the frog in the well.
"Then I wonder what Mr. A Fei wants to trade with us?"
"I want to trade with Takamura, 'Star'!"
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, but there's no 'star' in our village. Perhaps you've found the wrong one. I'm very sorry."
Hearing this, Silang glanced at the steady elder, did not respond to him, but instead put forward his own conditions.
"My offer to your village is 50 million taels," Shiro continued after a slight pause, "a number of each of the five C-level ninjutsu, and three B-level ninjutsu!"
Shiro knew that this condition was still very tempting to them. Not to mention the money, that alone would definitely not be enough to exchange for "stars". What was really important were those ninjutsu.
There is no way. The Hidden Star Village only has one good ninjutsu, which is the Peacock Technique. Apart from that, they have no other ninjutsu.
Therefore, Shilang's conditions are still very tempting, after all, this is what they urgently need.
Although the power of the Peacock Technique is far greater than the ninjutsu provided by Shiro, the Peacock Technique is too difficult to learn and its shortcomings are also obvious.
Therefore, if these ninjutsu could make up for it, the combat effectiveness of the Hidden Star Village would definitely be improved by more than one level!
Therefore, before the steady elder could even speak, Xingying sent out a signal! Clearly, he was ready to take action!
In an instant, several giant chakra-like tails directly shattered the room!
In the dense smoke and dust, Shiro was unharmed and quickly jumped back out. After landing, Shiro looked at the surrounding Star Ninjas and the tail-shaped chakra behind them, and asked Xingying lightly:
"I wonder what Master Xingying means by this? I came here with sincerity. Is this how your village treats guests?"
"Hmph! Trespassing into our Star Hidden Village without permission is already a serious crime. We are just catching thieves." After saying that, he formed seals with his hands and a tail-shaped chakra rose from behind him.
"Tsk, your strength isn't that great, but you're quite good at talking. But, will you consider it again? We are very sincere."
"Haha, there's nothing to discuss. Since you dare to enter our Xingyin Village alone, then stay!" The other two elders also began to make seals after they finished speaking.
"Peacock Magic!"
"Third Elder, what should we do?" Rong Yi sighed after seeing this situation. He did not rush to take action, but walked up to the steady elder and asked.
"Well, things have come to this. Let's take action and repel him first. Then we can persuade Master Xingying. By the way, have you done what I told you to do?"
"Don't worry, Third Elder, I have already made arrangements. However, do we have to compromise even if we win?" Rong Yi asked with a frown.
Rong Yi could understand compromising before the fight to avoid conflict, but the fight had already begun and the chances of winning were very high, so he didn't understand why any compromise was still needed.
"Alas, one day you'll understand. Okay, let's deal with him first. It's better to be cautious."
Compared with Rong Yi, the third elder has much richer experience. Although he is ranked as the third elder, he is actually older than Xingying and the other two elders.
It was only because of the injuries he suffered in his early years that his strength was greatly affected, so he was ranked as the third elder. Therefore, he had no say in the village.
All three thought he was frightened and always rejected his cautious remarks. As a result, he had not spoken at the meeting for a long time.
But after this time, he must stop Xingying no matter what. He came from the Warring States Period, so he knew what a real strong person was like.
Although there are not many people at the same level as those two, the others are not weak either. The shortcomings of the Peacock Magic itself will be infinitely magnified in their hands, making it difficult to win.
Moreover, the natural barriers outside the village are not omnipotent, and Shilang's breakthrough this time is proof of this.
However, Xingying and the others now have a mysterious confidence in the Peacock Magic Method and will not listen to any suggestions at all. Therefore, he plans to discuss it with Xingying after defeating Shilang.
He believed that judging from the abilities currently displayed by the other party, this Ah Fei in front of him would definitely be able to make Xingying and the others realize the shortcomings of the Peacock Magic, so that they would no longer be as blind as before.
After all, being able to cultivate to this level shows that they are not stupid, they are just limited by their vision. Once they see it, they can correct it relatively quickly.
Therefore, he also activated the Peacock Magic Method.
"Tsk tsk tsk, are you planning to rob us? You're really wasting all your strength."
After saying this, Shiro's eyes under his helmet became stern, and his whole temperament changed accordingly.
