Chapter 40 [Discussion]

After struggling until late at night, Uchiha's medical department finally managed to heal the injuries of the two people, but both of them had to stay in the medical department for a short period of observation due to their serious injuries.

Uchiha Akihiko was already injured, and the intense battle between the two sides caused his injuries to worsen. However, his injuries were not very serious, and he could go home and recuperate after his condition stabilized.

But Ling's situation was not so good. Multiple muscle tears were only the easiest injuries to treat. The most serious problem was that the lightning chakra that Ling used to strengthen his body did not calm down because of its owner's coma. Instead, it became more active and extremely repelled the medical ninja's healing chakra.

After successfully exhausting six medical ninjas, Ling's injuries were finally stabilized. However, because he had not yet regained consciousness, a medical ninja had to be left behind to provide close care for him and be ready to cooperate with the treatment at any time.

Ling's coma also caused Uchiha Akihiko, who was staying in the same ward, to receive a lot of cold stares from Izuna, especially the next day, when Madara finished his mission and returned to the clan home and came to visit after learning about this. Uchiha Akihiko felt that the temperature in the room had dropped by two degrees for no reason.

This situation did not end until the third day after the duel, when Ling regained consciousness. However, Uchiha Akihiko, who was hospitalized with him, was still often looked down upon by Madara and Izuna.

However, seeing that Ling successfully regained consciousness and began to cooperate with the treatment, Uchiha Akihiko did not stay any longer and applied to be discharged from the hospital to recuperate at home. But before being discharged, he couldn't help but complain to Ling about the fact that his two younger brothers had been giving him the cold shoulder and rolling their eyes at him in the past few days.

"Well... you can't blame Madara and Izuna for this. After all, it was a family dinner that day, and Izuna was looking forward to it." Ling leaned back on the hospital bed, his body covered with bandages. "As for Madara, he was just angry in a normal way."

"You've gone too far..." Uchiha Akihiko curled his lips, "Can't you just say it if you can't stand it?"

"Haha... After all, I haven't fought with all my strength for a long time, so I'm a little excited." Ling laughed softly, "Let's spar again after your injury heals. I have experience this time, and if it's the same hardness, I'm sure I can cut it off with one blow."

"No, forget it. I don't want to be looked down upon again. If the Uchiha didn't have the Ice Release Bloodline, Madara would have frozen me into an ice cube long ago."

Hearing this, Ling couldn't help but laugh again, but after laughing, his expression became serious again, "Okay, enough of the small talk, now it's time for your question.

Akihiko, I still say the same thing, you can use the power of bloodline limit, but you can't let the bloodline limit control you. "

Looking at Ling's serious expression, Uchiha Akihiko sighed, "Don't worry, you've already knocked out the water in my brain, I won't abuse this power... and you should be more worried about yourself than me, right?"

"Don't worry. Although I can't move freely now, I'm in great shape now." Ling raised his hand, and a faint arc of electricity jumped from his fingertips. "Maybe this is a blessing in disguise."

"What a lunatic... Then I'll go home. Although Akihiko's body has been buried by his family, I haven't had the chance to add a handful of soil to him..." Uchiha Akihiko lowered his eyebrows, his voice a little depressed, "Tomorrow is the child's birthday. I originally promised to take him to the Kingdom of Flowers to watch the festival... But now I can only give him a white flower."

"…Which ninja did this?"

"It's Kaguya's group of lunatics who cut anyone they see... Don't worry about it. I will get it back myself."

Ling nodded and made a note of this. "Well, if you need any help, just ask. It won't take me too long to recover from my injuries."

This time, Uchiha Akihiko didn't say anything. He just nodded lightly and walked outside. However, he met Madara and Izuna who came to visit Ling at the door, and immediately received two pairs of contempt from them again.

Uchiha Akihiko: ...Forget it, don't be angry with the kid.

Izuna puffed up her face and stared at Uchiha Akihiko's departing figure. It was not until he turned the corner and disappeared that she snorted very loudly and followed Madara into the ward.

"I heard a noise," Ling smiled and turned to the door of the ward, "Is it Madara and Izuna? Sorry to have made you worry again."

Hearing this, Izunai was furious. "It's all that guy's fault! He said something like 'it won't take too long', but he ended up getting you hospitalized as well, and you didn't even get to have the reunion dinner. I won't trust him anymore! He's a big liar!"

"Well, Akihiko has his reasons, and brother is completely fine, so Izuna shouldn't blame him too much." Ling opened his arms and smiled gently, "Okay, okay, brother won't be angry if you hug him, okay?"

Hearing Ling's smiling voice, Quan Nai immediately lost his temper. He walked silently to the bed and held onto the edge of the bed, then put his head next to Ling's hand, looking unhappy, "I don't want to forgive that guy..."

"Ah, ah..." Ling lowered his hand and gently rubbed Izuna's hair, with a helpless look on his face, "It seems that Izuna is very worried about brother? Well, brother will be more careful when sparring with others next time, let's forget it this time, okay? Our Izuna is the kindest, right?"

"Sparring? Brother, do you think that a fight that puts both sides on the verge of death is a sparring match?" Madara put the food box he brought on the table and snorted coldly, "In that case, when I meet Kazuhiko again, I will also [spar with him properly]."
