Chapter 174 Ling: ...Then what should you call him?

"It really makes me eager to meet you..."

Youlu, who was happily chewing on the spiced dried fish, was startled by Ling's sudden burst of murderous intent. Thinking about what happened today, he couldn't help but pat his forehead with his claws, "What? Do you regret letting that little Qianshou go?"

"No, it's another one." Ling exhaled lightly and restrained his murderous intent. "I'm not so bad as to send such murderous intent to someone who is much weaker than me."

Youlu immediately became interested and ate the dried fish in a few bites. He then used his claws to swat away the crumbs that fell on Ling's head. "What kind of person is that?"

"I do not know yet."

"... Meow?" Youlu leaned forward to see Ling's expression, "You don't know?"

"Well, he is an enemy who knows how to forbear and plan very well. Speaking of which..." Ling nodded slightly, "Xiaoyou, do you know what enemies we Uchiha have had since ancient times?"

"Well - I didn't pay much attention to this aspect. After all, Indra and I really didn't get along. But it was indeed a bit strange at the beginning," Youlu jumped onto Ling's shoulder, "When the old man first wanted to give the position to Ashura, Indra was very angry and even ran away from home for a while, but that was definitely not a break with his family. It was more like throwing a tantrum..."

"...ran away from home?" Ling's expression twisted for a moment. He obviously didn't expect his ancestor to do such a thing. "Is he serious?"

"Yes, seriously, it was Ashura who kept pestering him. In the end, he hugged his thighs and begged him to stay. Only then did he reluctantly change his plan of running away from home to going out for a walk. He traveled for a long time before returning.

After that, the old man's health gradually deteriorated because he was pregnant with us, and because the two boys reluctantly reconciled, he didn't pay much attention to him and just rested alone, so I don't know the details of their relationship. "

Youlu nonchalantly talked about the dark history he had seen, "I mentioned to you what happened afterwards. For some reason, those two guys quarreled again after the old man died. We were still young and weak at the time, and it was a big deal for us."

However, Ling seemed to be thinking after hearing this, "I see, but... pregnancy?"

"Didn't I tell you? We were all created by the old man using his chakra. Before that, we were all nurtured and grown in the old man's body, and given consciousness and instincts—"

Youlu licked his paws. "In your words, we are also the old man's children, and those two boys'...um, brothers and sisters? It's not just talk that we watched them grow up. Even though we don't get along with each other, we still care about them a lot."

"No wonder... But this is even weirder..."

"Hmm? What's weird about that?"

"I was originally wondering if there was a guy among the tailed beasts who hated humans, so he secretly split Indra and Ashura after the death of the Six Paths Sage, causing them to break up.

But from what you said, the tailed beasts only disliked them on the surface, so the one who did this must be someone else. It's just that he was afraid of the existence of the Six Paths Sage, so he started those little tricks after his death, but I don't understand...

It is no exaggeration to say that the Six Paths Sage of that period was revered by everyone in the world. Not to mention why that person wanted to go against him, just the fact that he founded the Ninja Clan at that time and distributed chakra to the world without a care in the world, the difficulty of obtaining bloodline limits was definitely lower than it is now.

In addition, he can also come forward to mediate the conflicts between the ninja clans and convince everyone. The ninjas will have less internal friction and will be more focused on exploring new knowledge. The richness and diversity of bloodline limits will definitely be higher than it is now.

Although the Sharingan is called the Sage's Eye, it was definitely not the most outstanding Bloodline Limit in that era when Bloodline Limits emerged one after another - it should be more of a symbol of honor for those who are close to the Supreme."

Ling frowned slightly, "If he was just plotting to obtain the Sharingan, with his incitement, he could have let Indra transform him into his bloodline after the Six Paths Sage died. Why would he have to use a more troublesome method of modifying our inheritance stele, which takes nearly a thousand years?

Could it be that he is not planning to get the Sharingan for himself? But he wants to do something with the Sharingan?"

Youlu blinked his eyes, feeling a little confused, but he couldn't help but recall whether his old man had made enemies with anyone. But after thinking about it, he could only remember that the people in the Ninja World were grateful to his old man and had various conflicts with those two naughty boys. He was even more confused at the moment.

"And I have another question that I can't figure out..."

Youlu came back to his senses, "What?"

"Since you were born from the Sage of Six Paths... then what should you call him? Father? Or mother?"

"Of course -" Yulu choked and tapped Ling's head with his tail, "Can you think of something useful? An old man is an old man."

Ling raised his hand to rub the back of his head, then took Youlu down and stroked his fur. His voice sounded a little aggrieved, "I'm just curious. After all, there are myths and legends about gods being genderless and giving birth to all things..."

"The old man is a human being, a human being, you know? He is called a fairy only because he is too powerful, so the world is in awe of him. We are just pure chakra creations. Strictly speaking, as long as the understanding of chakra and soul is deep enough, anyone can create the same existence."

Youlu put his paw on Ling's chin, "And put yourself in his shoes. As a man, can you give birth to a child?"

"Well, regarding the matter of having children, if the Uzumaki clan wanted to, they might be able to do it..."

Youlu choked again and increased the strength of his claws, pushing Ling back with his head raised. He said in a depressed voice, "Who cares about those freaks? Anyway, don't let me hear you asking such offensive and stupid questions to an old man again."

Ling lowered his head and rubbed Youlv's soft hair, chuckling, "Yes, yes - I will pay attention, so tell me some more secrets of that time? Xiao You? Youyou? Don't be angry -"

"Hmph..." Youlv turned his head away, "Let's talk about it when I'm in a better mood."
