"Hey, tell me, is it because I'm ugly, or are those women just bad at judging people?" Zhan pulled over the Uchiha man beside him and asked.
"Um... Lord Zhan, you're so handsome, those women must be blind. They're not good enough for you at all," the Uchiha man beside him flattered.
"Hmm, that sounds nice, I like hearing it. You're not lying to me, are you?" Zhan patted his shoulder, looking threatening.
"No, no, absolutely not, I'm telling the truth," the Uchiha shook his head, indicating that he wasn't lying, but inwardly he was thinking, "You look so threatening, how can I say no?"
"It's good that you didn't lie to me. You're much nicer to talk to than that guy. Let's hurry up and try to cover as much distance as possible before dark." After saying that, he chased after Tianqi.
After traveling 100 kilometers without eating or drinking, the sky finally began to darken.
"Tianqi, Tianqi, that's enough. Let's spend the night here. I'm starving!" Zhan called out to Tianqi, who was standing in front of him, looking exhausted.
"Haven't you all eaten?" Tianqi asked, looking at everyone in confusion. They all nodded and said, "We haven't eaten all day."
"You guys are amazing! You don't even have time to eat while traveling. I'm truly impressed." Tianqi looked at the group of people in front of him and was genuinely impressed.
"Tianqi, what do you mean? You didn't eat either." Zhan didn't know why Tianqi said that, but he had a bad feeling.
"Um... I was eating dried beef as I walked, and I thought you were eating while you were on your way too. I'm really sorry," Tianqi said awkwardly, rubbing his nose.
"Damn it, you old codger, it's not like it's an emergency mission, why are you eating while walking? Besides, you've been running so fast the whole time, how would anyone know you've been eating?"
"We thought you were really in a hurry for the mission, so we gritted our teeth and accommodated you. But you ate your food long ago, and you still look embarrassed. Don't you have any shame?" Zhan jumped out and shouted, while the others stared at him with resentment.
"Hahaha, my mistake, my mistake. Let's just stay here. To make up for it, I'll take care of the accommodation. You guys start a fire and have a meal." After saying that, Tianqi walked towards an open space.
"Everyone, go find some firewood to start a fire, and we'll eat later," Zhan Jiantian said, taking the initiative to take care of the lodging and not saying anything more to him.
While everyone was gathering firewood, Tianqi formed three hand seals in the open space. "Wood Release - Linked Pillars Technique!" A group of tree roots sprouted from the open space, intertwined, and instantly five houses appeared in the open space.
"Done! Wood Release ninjutsu is great. It's convenient, powerful, and easy to use. No wonder Madara was always at a disadvantage when facing Hashirama Senju," Tianqi said, looking at the house with admiration.
"They have a place to live, but I don't. Let's make myself more comfortable." After saying that, Tianqi formed a hand seal again, and "Wood Release - Four Pillars Family Technique" instantly formed a two-story luxury building.
"That's right, this is exactly what suits me, sir," Tian Qi said with a satisfied look at the small building, then he went inside.
After more than ten minutes, the group finally returned carrying firewood. Upon their return, they saw several houses. "Huh? Why are there houses here? Did we go to the wrong place?"
"What are you all doing? Let's go!" Zhan shouted as he carried a large bundle of firewood and saw that everyone had stopped. As soon as he finished speaking, everyone made way for him.
Zhan also saw the houses on the open ground. "Holy crap, who led us here? Why didn't we go back to our camp?"
The ninja who had led the way stepped forward and explained, "Lord Zhan, this is our camp. I didn't lead you to the wrong place."
"You dare to lie through your teeth? Look carefully, where are the houses in our camp? And Uchiha Tenki is staying behind at the camp. Tell me where he is!" Zhan Xun rebuked the ninja who was leading the way.
"Lord Zhan, I'm sure I didn't lead you astray. This is our camp, but I don't know how houses ended up here," the ninja who led the way said with a wronged expression.
"You're still not giving up, are you? Since you say this is our camp, then Uchiha Tenki must be here. Find him for me!" Zhan put the firewood on the ground and looked at the ninja leading the way with a look of amusement.
To prove he hadn't led the wrong way, the ninja who had been guiding the way stepped forward and shouted, "Lord Tianqi, Lord Tianqi, Lord Tianqi!"
After calling out several times without getting a response, Zhan was about to speak when Tianqi's voice came, "What are you shouting for? Are you trying to summon my soul here?!" Tianqi walked out of the house with an annoyed look on his face. He was just about to lie down when he heard someone calling him repeatedly, and the voice was very loud.
When everyone saw Tianqi actually come out, and even came out of the house, they all had expressions of disbelief.
"Lord Tianqi, you've finally appeared! If you hadn't shown up, I would have been wronged to death!" The ninja who led the way stepped forward and hugged Tianqi's leg, looking aggrieved.
"Let go, let go. Let go and we'll talk about it. What are you doing, you big man?" Tianqi pulled the ninja who was leading the way up.
"Tianqi, we just got back and saw these houses. We thought he had led us astray. Where did these houses come from?" Zhan walked out and asked, pointing to the houses in front of him.
"I built all of these using ninjutsu. With these houses, we won't have to camp outside anymore. Two people can share a room," Tian Qi said calmly, as if it were just a trivial matter. But to him, it really was a trivial matter.
Zhan's eyes widened. "What kind of ninjutsu is so convenient? Teach me quickly, so I won't have to camp anymore when I go on missions."
Seeing Zhan's excited expression, Tian Qi immediately poured cold water on him: "This is a secret technique; you can't learn it."
"Damn it! Why didn't you tell me about the secret technique earlier? You made me happy for nothing!" Zhan trusted Tianqi completely. Since he said he couldn't learn it, then he definitely couldn't. There was no need for him to lie to him. "Let's go, start a fire and get ready to eat." Zhan threw the firewood forcefully to the side of the camp.
The group arrived at the camp and started a fire. Tianqi then said to the ninja who was leading the way, "Next time Uchiha Zhan is framing you, don't hesitate to just take him down. Don't feel wronged, understand? Who puts up with his bad habits?"
"No, no, no, how could I possibly lay a hand on Lord Zhan? That won't do!" The ninja leading the way shook his head repeatedly as he listened to Tian Qi's words.
"Why are you afraid of him? We both have two shoulders and one head, so who's afraid of who? If you win, it's because you're capable. If you lose and get beaten up, it's because you deserve it. Understand? Next time, just beat him up." Tian Qi looked at Uchiha Zhan with a wicked smile while talking to the ninja who was leading the way.
"Yes, yes, you're right. I'll go help them start a fire." Seeing that Tianqi's words were getting more and more outrageous, the ninja who was leading the way simply ran away.
