Chapter 154: Don't Proactively Provoke That Traitor!

~7 min read 1,239 words

When Lian Ye arrived at the Medical Department, several of Sarutobi Rizhan's men had already received treatment, and their wounds had eased.

Because the injuries were too severe and the medical resources were limited.

The few could not recover quickly, so they must convalesce at the camp during this period.

Especially Mizuto Menyan, whose internal organs were seriously damaged; without ten days to half a month of rest, don't even think about getting better……

"Lian Yejun, why have you come?" Uchiha Jing's face showed a smile.

"I came to see you," Lian Ye said, "how are your injuries?"

"We won't die."

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang was wrapped in bandages, exuding a hint of future pot‑king aura.

His wounds were not serious, and under the Medical Ninja's care, a few days of rest would fully heal him.

Apart from Mizuto Menyan's serious injury, the others' wounds were not too severe.

After Xiaochun Zhuanqin and Zhi Cun Tuan Zang finished treatment, they returned to the camp tent together with Lian Ye.

After enduring a fierce battle and sustaining considerable injuries, the three quickly fell into a deep sleep.

…………

When the Uchiha Clan's members finished the fight and came down from the battlefield, they heard someone in the camp discussing the Northern Battlefield.

Upon learning that the Lightning Shadow's Personal Guard had been killed by Uchiha Clan members, each proudly lifted their heads.

This is the Uchiha's glory!

"Which clan members went to the Northern Battlefield?" Uchiha Tanaka asked.

As the clan head, he couldn't recall arranging any members to go to the Northern Battlefield……

The Uchiha Clan members looked at each other, showing bewildered expressions.

If memory serves, they only obey the clan head's orders on the battlefield, never act on their own, let alone go to the battlefield privately.

They actually didn't know who the Uchiha members who went to the Northern Battlefield were.

Uchiha Tanaka fell into thought; killing the Lightning Shadow's Personal Guard would at least make one an Elite Jonin.

Yet the clan's Elite Jonin should have gone with him to the front lines to fight.

No…… it seems I overlooked someone!

He suddenly recalled that Uchiha Jing and Sarutobi Rizhan formed a squad and did not move with the main Uchiha force.

Moreover, Jing at that time went to the Northern Battlefield……

That would explain it; the Uchiha who killed the Lightning Shadow Escort was Jing!

"I know who it is," Uchiha Tanaka said.

The Uchiha members turned to Tanaka, eager to hear the clan head's explanation.

"Hmph, this Uchiha……" before he could finish, voices of Konoha ninja came from afar.

"The Uchiha who killed the Lightning Shadow Escort is named Lian Ye!"

Upon hearing that, the Uchiha crowd froze in place, their faces showing strange expressions.

They knew the name Lian Ye all too well; wasn't he the Uchiha traitor?

The one who killed the Lightning Shadow Escort was that traitor?!

How could this be possible!

It should be known that when Uchiha Elite Jonin face strong men, they gain no advantage and must retreat……

And that traitor is only in his teens; how could he kill an opponent nearly Shadow-level?

The Uchiha crowd fell into a bizarre deathly silence.

Voices from not far away kept reaching their ears.

"It's said Renya Jonin is formidable; single‑handedly at the Southwest Battlefield he battered Sand Ninja so badly they couldn't lift their heads!"

"Is it true? That's absurd?!"

"You didn't know? The poison he concocted is extremely potent; even the poison‑skilled Sunagakure aren't a match."

……

Uchiha Tanaka's face turned ashen, and he couldn't help clenching his fist.

He would never have thought that the Uchiha who killed the Lightning Shadow's Personal Guard was the traitor he had expelled from the clan!

No, that guy can no longer be counted as a Uchiha member.

Lian Ye had already been expelled from the clan earlier by him!

After a moment of silence, he suddenly sneered:

"Hmph, I just used some unsavory methods."

Using poison, a despicable tactic, the proud Uchiha could never resort to; only a scoundrel would employ poison.

The Uchiha members nodded in agreement.

"Lord Clan Head, should we give that traitor some punishment?" a Uchiha Jonin suggested.

They have always disapproved of the traitorous Lian Ye, but unfortunately never had a chance to punish him.

Uchiha Tanaka's eyes flickered, as if contemplating the feasibility of this matter.

Yet recalling Qianshou Feijian's warning, he ultimately shook his head and refused.

"That traitor isn't worth us handling personally," Tanaka said coldly, "He is no longer a member of the clan."

Acting against a comrade on the battlefield is a very serious matter!

The Uchiha's reputation is already poor; if others learn they act against their own, they will become the target of all arrows.

Moreover, since Lian Ye could use poison to kill the powerful Lightning Shadow's Personal Guard, he could also poison them.

Adding Qianshou Feijian's backing behind the scenes, Uchiha Tanaka now truly doesn't want to provoke Lian Ye……

If we really push him into a panic, a cornered dog will jump the wall— what should we do about poisoning the Uchiha?

We also need to remind the clan members, otherwise when they're truly shadowed by Lian Ye it will be troublesome.

"From now on, don't proactively provoke that traitor, lest trouble befall you!"

After speaking, he flicked his sleeve and left, leaving the Uchiha Clan's Members standing in place.

…

"Elder Clan Chief, what does this mean? Is it really settled like this?"

"Perhaps the Elder Clan Chief has his own ideas; we should just obey the orders."

With Uchiha Tanaka's warning, the Uchiha Clan's Members dismissed the idea of disciplining Lian Ye and returned to their respective tents.

When the Uchiha members had completely left, three people emerged from a nearby tent.

"Lian Ye, what do you think of this matter?" Zhi Cun Tuan Zang's expression was cold.

The Uchiha are truly becoming more lawless, even directing their intentions toward their own companion!

Sure enough, the Uchiha are a naturally evil clan!

Perhaps someday they will bring irreparable damage to the Village.

If I become Hokage, I will definitely eliminate this unstable factor!

The earlier conversation of the Uchiha was clearly heard by all of them.

Xiaochun Zhuanqin, indignant, said: "The Uchiha are truly detestable; they drove Lian Yejun out of the clan, and now they still want to cause trouble!"

The two subconsciously looked at Lian Ye, curious about his attitude toward this matter?

"As long as these idiots don't take the initiative to cause trouble, I won't bother responding." Lian Ye's expression was indifferent, and his tone gave no hint of joy or anger.

"If they dare to cause trouble, I will make their lives worse than death!"

Tuan Cang was initially stunned, then a smile appeared, "That's exactly right."

He simply loves Lian Ye's decisive, ruthless attitude!

Such a temperament as Hokage would never let the Village suffer losses.

Indecision would only cause the Village to gradually decline…

"Lian Yejun, we will stand on your side!" Xiaochun Zhuanqin declared resolutely.

After years of interaction, she had long regarded Lian Ye and Tuan Cang as important partners.

If a companion encounters danger, she would not hesitate to step forward and help!

Lian Ye looked at the two, a slight smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

"Thank you both."

He paid no heed at all to the Uchiha's threat…
