The King of Shadows

Chapter 114 The Birds in the Sky

In the sun, in the cheers that filled the sky.

Xue Shenyue was still sitting on the ground casually, watching Hinata Ningci's ever-changing expression, he suddenly said, "Let me show you something."

As he spoke, he turned his back to everyone, and slowly stuck out his tongue in the blind spot of the audience's sight.

There is a black curse mark looming on it.

Hyuga Ningji, who had been watching him silently, suddenly changed his face, and said, "This...this is..."

Xue Shenyue withdrew her tongue, nodded lightly and said: "You guessed right, this is the curse mark on my body."

Hinata Ningji said in a daze after hearing the words: "You...how could you..."

"Ha ha…"

Xue Shenyue didn't say much, but looked up at the sky and said: "We are all birds caught by someone... But I have always believed that as long as I am smart and work hard enough, I will be able to peck open the cage with my own beak door because..."

He lowered his head and said softly, "Because we all have the dream of... being in the sky again... soaring freely..."

Hearing this, Hyuga Neji's expression became complicated and unspeakable, he silently looked at the sky, not knowing what he was thinking.

The two fell silent at the same time.

On the contrary, Shikamaru in the stands suddenly realized at this moment, he has been puzzled why Xue Shenyue played the game like this on purpose.

Because although it is exciting enough, a game is a game, not for people to watch.

It wasn't until the cheers from the audience and the enthusiastic expressions of the villagers made him fully react.

It turned out that I only focused on the current game, but didn't consider things outside the game, so I didn't think enough and didn't think of Xue Shenyue's purpose.

Simply put, it is not enough to see the big picture.

However, this guy is trying so hard to win people's hearts, and what he wants to do... he also wants to be Hokage, because only then does he need to gain a high reputation... If that's the case, do you want to do something...

Forget it, it's such a trouble, let him play by himself...

Shikamaru raised his leisurely head to look at the sky, and found that compared to thinking about these troublesome things, the blue sky and white clouds are more comfortable, what's wrong with being ordinary...

"Ning Ci, I want to remind you of one thing." Xue Shenyue suddenly turned her head in the field.

Hyuga Ningji heard the words, raised his head and asked in doubt: "What?"

Xue Shenyue pursed her lips, and said solemnly: "Today's match will bring us similar changes. For you, it will completely reveal the secrets of Hyuga's family, and it will be in public. The Zong family will not be able to punish you no matter what, otherwise it will be a mouthful."

Hyuga Ningji revealed a pensive look, and nodded silently.

Xue Shenyue continued: "Since you can't be punished, the best thing to do is to find a way to make you willingly play for the clan... So, after the match, the Hyuga clan will definitely give you an explanation for what happened back then."

Hinata Ningji frowned slightly, but heard the boy say in a deep voice: "It doesn't matter whether you believe in that explanation or not, the most important thing is, don't forget your purpose, you are trying to become stronger to break free from the shackles , instead of jumping headlong into fate, if you still die for the clan in the end, it would be too sad..."

Xue Shenyue ignored Hinata Ningji's slightly changed eyes, looked up at the sky, and said to herself: "But for me, the blood succession limit has been completely revealed, and it will also attract that person's attention again. It's really similar, but as long as you learn to cover up your real goal, it will be fine."

Hyuga Ningji was silent for a moment, and suddenly there was a strange expression on his face: "Why did you tell me this... It was originally because of Miss Hinata, didn't you regard me as an enemy?"

"Because we're all caged birds..."

Xue Shenyue chuckled, and her expression turned serious again: "More importantly, you can't resist the Zong family, and I can't resist that person. We may never be able to get rid of the shackles on our own, but... maybe we can cooperate. "

"You mean..."

Hearing this, Ningji Hyuga was slightly moved.

Xue Shenyue slowly raised the corners of her mouth: "That's right, maybe I can help you resist the pressure in the future, and you can also help me get rid of the shackles."

He deliberately didn't tell the fact that he can get rid of the shackles as long as he surpasses Danzo.

Because the most fundamental purpose of his plan to help Hyuga Neiji is to control Hyuga...

As for why you want to control Hinata, of course it is because no matter whether you want to control Konoha or for Hinata, you can't get around the big clan of Hinata.

In this case, it is better to simply hold it in your own hands...

"What do you think?" Xue Shenyue asked sideways.

Hyuga Ningji was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I haven't thought it through yet."

Xue Shenyue smiled slightly, patted the windbreaker, stood up and walked away slowly, only the voice still reached Ningji Hyuga's ears: "I'll wait for the day you think about it..."

Swish!
Amid the cheers all over the sky, Xue Shenyue bowed slightly to everyone, and then disappeared into the field in a flash.

And Hinata, who was still looking for Xue Shenyue's figure in the stands, suddenly felt a warm palm gently pressing on her little head, and a familiar boy's voice came out: "Hinata, the injury is healed!" how's it going?"

She immediately turned her head happily, and sure enough, she saw Xue Shenyue standing by the side of the aisle, looking at herself gently.

Hinata blinked her big eyes: "It's much better... Shenyue-jun, congratulations on defeating Brother Ningci."

Xue Shenyue smiled lightly and said, "Then are you happy?"

Hinata was slightly taken aback when she heard the words, and then showed a big smile: "Well, I'm happy."

He said before that he would vent his anger on me, but in the end he really did it...

"what?"

The tooth on the side suddenly pointed to Xue Shenyue's back in doubt: "Who are they?"

Xue Shenyue turned her head curiously when she heard the words, and then saw two figures with strange masks coming behind her.

His heart skipped a beat, but his expression remained calm, and he slowly turned around: "Are you looking for me?"

These guys came so fast, could it be said that Danzo has been paying attention to this place...

Logically speaking, it shouldn't be, there must be some reason...

On the other side, in the medical room of the arena, Neiji Hyuga, who had just learned the truth about his father's death, stood silently in front of the window, looking at the white clouds floating in the sky.

Father, did you choose to die in order to be able to decide your own destiny...

So, is human destiny like floating clouds with no specific direction... or can it be determined by oneself?
I haven't figured it out yet.

And no matter what choice you make, maybe the result will be the same...

But if you choose the latter, people will be able to devote all their efforts to the goal of living...

Such people are the real strong...

After this battle, I finally understand...

Hinata Neiji smiled at the sky.

And father...

My only goal is to...

Be strong, be strong enough not to lose to anyone...

Here's what I'm thinking now...
