Chapter 260 The Collapse of Little Grass

Looking at the young woman wolfing down the food opposite him, Xuanwu shook his head and served himself a bowl of rice and started eating together.

After the food on the table was almost finished, the half-full Xuanwu said, "Aunt, the people sent by the third generation will take a few days to arrive. Before that, you can only trouble yourself. When they arrive, you can arrange them in various key departments, especially the people from the Zhuludie family. You will be able to hold real power within two years.

"Oh~"

Thousand-Handed Immortal Grass answered absentmindedly: Didn’t you mention that? We have already made preparations.

Xuanwu didn't notice anything unusual and continued, "I have obtained the consent of the White Snake Immortal regarding the spiritual contract between you and Longdi Cave. Remember to sign the contract scroll with your own blood and press your finger. If you encounter any danger in the future, just summon Xinya. I have already told it."

Xuanwu took out a large scroll that was as big as the Myōboku Mountain Summoning Contract Scroll and placed it on the table next to him.

"Oh~"

Thousand-Handed Immortal Grass's answer was still simple, but his voice was even quieter. He sat there with his head lowered, holding a cup of hot tea in his little hands, wondering what he was thinking about.

"Also, in a few days, four female jonin who do not belong to Konoha will be summoned to guard the palace. Remember to pass them when the time comes. You can use them as personal guards. As long as those four people are not dead, your life safety is absolutely guaranteed."

"Oh~"

Thousand-Handed Immortal Grass lowered its head even lower, and its voice became almost inaudible.

"That's it. Keep up the good work these days, auntie. I'm keeping an eye on you. I'm leaving now. Let Shirley and Nao clean up these."

After Xuanwu finished speaking, he stood up and left.

Xiancao's mood grew more depressed as Xuanwu walked away: Was it really just revealed so casually? Without any explanation at all? Just pretending that he didn't hear anything?

When he reached the door of the inner room and grasped the door handle, a small hand pulled his sleeve.

Xuanwu turned around, a little confused, "Aunt? Is there anything else?"

Thousand-Handed Immortal Grass lowered his head and said nothing, his face hidden by his bangs looking terrifyingly gloomy.

From Xuanwu's perspective, the snow-white bun looks really beautiful. It's a pity that he is blind now and can't see it.

"Aunt?"

After a long silence, Qianshou Xiancao still didn't have the courage to ask his own question, and let go of the hand that was holding Xuanwu's sleeve in disappointment.

Xuanwu still didn't seem to notice anything unusual about the Thousand Hands Immortal Grass. "Aunt, do you want to send me off? No need at all. You've been tired all day. You should have a good rest."

Xuanwu opened the door and was about to go out, however, a gust of wind blew and the door closed again. Xuanwu was pushed against the door by the Thousand Hands Herb, and the strength of the elite Jonin was fully demonstrated at this moment.

Feeling the little grass in front of him with its head down and silent, Xuanwu's eyes were full of complexity. He knew what the Thousand-Handed Immortal Grass wanted to say, he knew it from the beginning, but it was not the time, very not the time, and now he had no way to respond.

"Immortal Grass, does it have to be now?"

This is the first time Xuanwu has called her by her name since he met Thousand-Handed Immortal Grass.

Thousand-Handed Immortal Grass' heart trembled. She understood. Xuanwu had been pretending. He had been pretending to be stupid.

After realizing this, she suddenly felt so wronged, so wronged that she couldn't express it. Tears kept falling down, and she couldn't stop them. She stepped back and let go of Xuanwu, pretending to be strong and said, "Go, I will be a good daimyo in the future, and I will control the politics and economy of this country for you and become your best tool."

Under Xuanwu's observation Haki, the whole body of Thousand-Handed Immortal Grass appeared a melancholy blue, which was the color of extreme sadness.

"Xiancao, you misunderstood me, I..."

The Senju Immortal Grass covered Xuanwu's mouth with one hand, raised his head and looked at the person who haunted his soul, his eyes were full of melancholy and desolation, his heart was full of pain, "Enough, you don't have to explain to me, I shouldn't have gone to Konoha to guard Xiaosun, if I didn't go, I wouldn't have met you, let alone fall in love at first sight with you, a man nine years younger than me.

Originally, I could have restrained myself. At first, I just wanted to wish you and Xiao Gang the best. I knew my responsibilities and would not ask for anything from you.

But, but, but that misunderstanding happened in your family, which caused a crack in my heart, which I thought was firm. After that, as a married woman, I shamelessly contacted you again and again, and became more and more indulged in the ordinary letters. I even kept imagining that I was yours. When I came to my senses, the crack had been torn into a huge gap by the you in my imagination, and you moved in openly.

Even so, I can still restrain myself, I really can restrain myself, really, I can restrain myself from secretly loving you, thinking about you, but not disturbing you too much, not interfering between you and Xiao Gang, I still have this little bit of propriety and integrity!

But things did not go as planned, and the Daimyo coup d'état happened again.

The current Senju clan has already been completely disintegrated by Sarutobi Hiruzen. I am the only person in the world with the surname Senju. The so-called princess of the Senju clan is just a vain title. I can't find any of my former clan members. I have no choice but to call you back to my side.

Do you know how happy I was when I saw you again in the palace that day!

Do you know!

How I wanted to throw myself into your arms, tell you how everyone in the palace bullied me, and ask you to vent my anger and help me beat them. You were the only person I could rely on at that time.

I knew I wasn't qualified, so I suppressed my emotions again.

But why did you eavesdrop on my conversation with Ren De Daimyo? It would have been fine if you just eavesdropped, but you also let me know that you eavesdropped, let me know that you knew I was thinking about you, let me know that you knew there was nothing else in my heart except you!

Now, you are avoiding the topic again and want to leave in a calm manner. How can I cope with myself? How can I cope with myself?

Qiu Dao Xuanwu, I admit it, yes, I am lowly, I have no manners, I am shameless, I fell in love with my niece's man, but you can't bully me!"

Thousand-Handed Immortal Grass's voice became louder and louder, until she finally broke down and cried. Even so, she did not lower her head. She stared stubbornly at the enemy in front of her, vowing to get an explanation. She had never been so wronged in her life.

Xuanwu sighed heavily in his heart, alas, this is difficult!

"Xiancao, the Fire Nation government is still a mess. Can we wait until it's sorted out?"

"cannot!"

"You and Ren De Daimyo haven't completed the divorce procedures yet. You are still his wife in name. Can you wait until you two are divorced?"

"I do not!"

"Tsunade is still unconscious. Can we wait until she wakes up before we talk?"

"I won't!"
