Ling and Uchiha Hong had just completed their mission after returning to the clan, and before they had time to rest, they were told by the clan members at the mission office that the elders wanted to see them - and had been waiting for them for several days.

The tribesman who informed the two thought that they would shrink back or examine themselves, but they just nodded calmly, as if they had expected it, and even acted as riddlers in front of him.

"I was notified right after I got back... Did you steal the mission?"

Uchiha Hiro nodded, turned around and walked out, "Of course, otherwise this task will definitely fall into Akihiko's hands in the end."

Ling sighed and followed, "It feels like things that need to be explained have become more troublesome..."

"That's what I want to explain, what are you worried about?"

"Why not? You are entrusted by me." Ling sighed again, "Let me think about what to say when the time comes... I hope my father won't blame me too much."

The tribesman who watched the two people leave was even more confused. Driven by curiosity, he opened the scroll that the two people had just handed over, and then his expression twisted - [A material mission for the Snow Country? You have to steal this too? What's so good about that remote place? ]

Ling and Uchiha Hong were naturally unaware of the tribe members' dilemma. After leaving the mission station, they went straight to the meeting hall where the elders resided.

The composition of the elders of the Uchiha clan is similar to that of other clans. They are composed of ninjas who are too old to go to the battlefield again and several representatives of the civilian people. In other words, the elders may not be very strong, but they definitely have experience.

Although the elders are all very old, it is impossible for them to take advantage of their age and act unreasonably in this era.

After all, apart from the civilian representatives, those ninjas who survived and became elders are, to put it nicely, agile and experienced, and they are the ones who should teach the next generation how to adapt.

To put it bluntly, they were too weak to go to the most intense battlefield, so they were able to survive. Unfortunately, Uchiha had no reason to force their members to die, so they became elders.

Therefore, although the tribe maintains respect for the elders, they are not that respectful. Most of the time, they share various chores with the tribe leader so that the tribe leader has the energy to lead the tribe members to the battlefield. They also prevent their own tribe leader from acting on his own in the few decisions that may affect the entire clan.

Taking advantage of one's seniority is a privilege only available in peacetime.

In this age of endless war, young people like Ling and Uchiha Hong who can go to the battlefield have an invisible status that is even higher than that of the elders.

However, even so, when they entered the council hall to meet the elders, the two were severely taught a lesson. Even Uchiha Tajima pulled Ling aside and gave him a serious lecture.

There is only one central idea in his words - if you want a task, just fight for it openly. It's not like the family can't make adjustments. Don't do something sneaky and then embarrass yourself in front of Qianshou.

[That damn crow! ]

Uchiha Hong was so angry that he wanted to rush to the Ling family and strangle the big-mouthed crow to death several times, but because his own grandfather was standing in front of him, he had to suppress his anger and listen to the lecture.

After Uchiha Tajima had finished speaking, Uchiha Koji finally picked up the water cup and let go of his grandson, whose face was flushed with shame and anger. "Okay, that's all I have to say. Remember this as a warning in the future."

Uchiha Hiro nodded stiffly.

"Tajima, I leave it to you. Don't save face for me. Remember to teach this bra a lesson—" At this point, Uchiha Koji glanced at Ling, whose expression did not change at all, and snorted, "They are really more lawless than each other."

Uchiha Tajima also knew that this was Uchiha Koji telling him to punish Ling, the main culprit, more severely. Even if he wanted to let him go gently because he felt sorry for him, he had to pick him up high first.

Thinking of this, Uchiha Tajima sighed in his heart, but on the surface he frowned and his voice became deeper, "Now that things have come to this, do you have anything else to say, Ling?"

"Yes, I was indeed not thoughtful enough this time. I ask the clan leader and elders to punish me." Ling lowered his head, "But before the punishment is determined, I have some discoveries that I would like to share with you."

Ling's good attitude of admitting his mistakes made the elders look much better. The chief elder, Uchiha Masako, who had felt he owed Ling something, spoke first, "Well, Tajima, you know that Ling is not the kind of child who acts without restraint, and he has the strength to fight against a Mangekyo of his generation. Let him talk?"

This was not only to give Uchiha Tajima a way out, but also to inform the other elders that the punishment this time could be bigger, but it could not really hurt the two men, and just be a token of their appreciation.

Uchiha Tajima looked around at the elders and saw that they all nodded. Then his expression eased a little, "Well, then Ling, you tell us about it."

After getting the promise, Ling nodded slightly and said, "What I want to say is related to our clan's bloodline limit. Please take a close look at Hong... Hong, let the clan leader and elders take a look."

Uchiha Hong curled his lips, took a deep breath to calm his mind, then mobilized his pupil power in his eyes, and three scarlet magatama suddenly appeared in his eye sockets.

The elders were puzzled by this, but before they could wonder further, they saw the three magatama in Uchiha Hiro's eyes twisted and connected to each other, forming a magnificent pattern.

bump!

It was Uchiha Koji who saw his grandson open his eyes and excitedly slammed the table, but fortunately he still had some sense and did not immediately go over to hug his grandson. He just stared at Uchiha Tajima and signaled him to continue quickly.

Uchiha Tajima, who was the focus of the elders' attention, was also extremely shocked. You know, although the Uchiha clan members who could open the three magatama knew that above the three magatama was the Mangekyō Sharingan, not every clan member with three magatama could open the Mangekyō Sharingan - after all, as recorded on the stone tablet, opening the Mangekyō Sharingan is destined to lose important people.

Although they desire power and pursue power, all of this is to protect the people they value. So except for the fact that when the clan was in trouble in the past, some members would take the initiative to seek death in order to open the eyes of the people they value, the Mangekyō Sharingan has always been in an awkward situation within the Uchiha clan, where everyone desires it but will not actively pursue it.

The owner of the Mangekyō Sharingan who appeared in the previous generation of Ling has died in battle, and Uchiha Akihiko of the same generation of Ling opened his eyes only after witnessing the death of his brother, and is still in the adaptation period of power. But now, Uchiha Hiroshi actually possesses the Mangekyō Sharingan without experiencing such a tragedy!

Combined with what Ling just said...

Uchiha Tajima suddenly turned his head to look at his eldest son, his voice trembling, "Ling, you guys..."
