When Ying appeared in the hall, she saw the Uchiha Clan Leader in the main seat, who was very different from what she had imagined. She had thought he would at least look like a middle-aged uncle, but he was surprisingly handsome, with messy hair, a stern face, and a muscular physique. A faint aura of authority emanated from him; she had never seen such a charismatic person.
The Traveler saw this and understood: "Ying, I called you over this time because the Uchiha Clan Leader proposed a marriage alliance. Grandpa wants to hear your opinion."
Hearing this, Ying's heart pounded. Heaven help her, Ying had never seen a man like him in her region. The most she had seen were geniuses like Bailang, but compared to the man in front of her, they paled in comparison.
The 15-year-old Ying didn't think much and said, "I'll listen to Grandpa."
Lan Luo watched the girl beside him, who was about his age, with yellow hair and blue eyes, cute and very pretty. She hadn't met Utakata yet; otherwise, she would definitely be attracted to him. This girl was a sucker for good looks.
Lan Luo, sitting in the main seat, spread his hands towards The Traveler. The Traveler was furious. This little brat had half-coerced him into the Uchiha Clan, and his granddaughter, after one meeting, had developed a crush on this little brat. Seeing this, he felt a bit broken, his eyes even turning red.
Lan Luo, seeing this, felt a little embarrassed and said, "Ying is so cute. She can explore Konoha more and see the difference between here and your home. When she returns, she can take some local specialties with her."
He then called a clan member and had him take Ying to tour Konoha.
"The Traveler, you can listen to what kind of forbidden Jutsu we are developing before making a decision." Lan Luo didn't dare to bring up the marriage alliance again, fearing the old man would get angry.
"I know that 'Rage Hair Heaven' absorbs natural energy from the surroundings into the body and then releases it instantly to achieve destructive effects. What we aim to do is to cultivate the absorbed natural energy into every cell of our bodies. This would not only enhance the power of Ninjutsu but also greatly extend lifespan. The Traveler, you must know that the Sages of the Three Great Holy Lands have lived for thousands of years. If this succeeds, you might even be able to have a younger aunt for Ying."
Lan Luo said this, teasing The Traveler.
The Traveler gasped at this. He ignored Lan Luo's teasing and continued, "I didn't expect your ambition to be so great."
He also sighed. What they didn't dare to imagine, this Uchiha dared to. He lacked neither ambition, strength, nor wisdom. Perhaps he was truly suitable for Ying.
"Inherit the techniques of our predecessors, and develop our own future."
Lan Luo knew the conversation was mostly over, so he activated his Mangekyo, using it to draw The Traveler into a Genjutsu. He then showed The Traveler, through the Genjutsu, how Bailang betrayed the Tsuchigumo Clan and plotted to seize the 'Rage Hair Heaven' from Ying.
"My eyes can see the past and future. Believe it or not, it's just a kind reminder." Lan Luo thought that since they would be working for him in the future, he shouldn't let the Tsuchigumo Clan suffer too many casualties.
The Traveler did not doubt the authenticity of the Genjutsu, because there was no need; what they wanted to do could be solved with a simple strike. Seeing the Tsuchigumo Clan after his death, he had thought they would decline, but he never imagined that their clan's genius would collude with outsiders to cause heavy casualties to the Tsuchigumo. At this point, he let go of the last bit of resentment in his heart.
Thinking of this, The Traveler took out the 'Rage Hair Heaven' Jutsu from his Bag and sincerely said, "Please protect Ying well."
He also didn't want other members of the Tsuchigumo Clan to harm Ying.
Lan Luo unceremoniously took the scroll and said, "Don't worry, Ying will be safe with me."
He finally got what he wanted, and also the people of the Tsuchigumo Clan. They seemed weak now, but if they could be developed, they would definitely surprise everyone. After all, the bloodline theory in the Ninja World was too overpowered.
After getting the scroll, Lan Luo had a clan member take The Traveler to rest and told them to treat the Tsuchigumo Clan well. Lan Luo returned to his house with the scroll. Back home, he saw Uzumaki Nanako and Karin preparing lunch.
Seeing Lan Luo, Karin ran forward, holding out his slippers, and asked, "Lan Luo-sama, have you had lunch? I'll tell Mama to make more."
Lan Luo picked up Karin, playfully pinched her nose, and said, "Not yet. I've been out lately and haven't had a proper meal. I really miss home-cooked food."
This harmonious and natural scene touched Uzumaki Nanako's tender heart. Seeing Lan Luo's stern face smiling and playing with Karin like family, Uzumaki Nanako couldn't help but blush.
"Why haven't I seen Hikari?" Lan Luo asked curiously.
"She's training your Six Styles with Izumi now," Uzumaki Nanako said, taking out more ingredients from the refrigerator. She knew he was a big eater.
Lan Luo thought about it and understood. Two girls of similar age, isn't it easy for them to get along? Hikari appeared cold, but deep down, she longed for a stable life, while Izumi wanted to share beautiful things with those around her. The two became good friends this way.
After lunch, he returned to his room, unrolled the scroll he had obtained that morning and the Cursed Seal scroll from Orochimaru, and compared them. The 'Rage Hair Heaven' absorbed a large amount of natural energy, and the Jutsu formula on the body would compress the Senjutsu energy entering the body, making it impossible to cultivate Senjutsu through 'Rage Hair Heaven'. Orochimaru's Cursed Seal, on the other hand, diluted Ryūchi Cave's snake venom to absorb a small amount of Chakra. The amount wasn't large and could be obtained through training, but its effect was limited and couldn't reach the amount Naruto needed to enter Sage Mode.
Lan Luo was also afraid of petrification, but he still had Izanagi. He used Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu to practice, which would allow him to control the risks of Senjutsu training. Thinking this, Lan Luo used Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu to create a dozen clones and began training. It wasn't that he couldn't create more clones; his Chakra reserves weren't large now, but he could absorb it through Yata no Kagami. He was just afraid of the soul shock when the clones dispersed.
He watched as some of the clones in front of him exploded from absorbing too much Senjutsu energy, while others remained motionless. He trained like this all afternoon. He couldn't say there were no gains, but the effect felt minimal.
Thinking this, he also realized that those who had just absorbed a large amount of Senjutsu energy would definitely affect the surrounding Senjutsu energy, or perhaps there was simply little Senjutsu energy in the Ninja World. He wasn't without a solution. He could use Barrier Ninjutsu combined with a Senjutsu absorption Jutsu formula to make his home filled with Senjutsu energy like the Three Great Holy Lands. However, maintaining a barrier long-term would consume a lot, but for now, there was no other way. He decided to act on it immediately.
He immediately activated his right eye, "Takami Musubi no Kami," creating eight Chakra metal pieces. He then spent the entire night carving Jutsu formulas, including sealing Chakra formulas, barrier Jutsu formulas, and Senjutsu energy absorption formulas. It was very complex. Now, using the eight Chakra metal pieces, they were placed on the Jutsu formula nodes carved around the house. It was too intricate. He knew that the Angkor Fortress only had one Chakra circuit, and the energy from the 0-Tails could protect the entire fortress.
