Chapter 464: What Dreams Do You Have?

"Lord Lian Ye, are you all right?"

A Fei looked at the suddenly appearing Lian Ye with worry and asked anxiously.

It had witnessed the whole battle, where Lord Lian Ye fought alone against hundreds of the Ninja Alliance.

In the end, he was ambushed by evil ninjas and severely wounded…

At this moment, the three wounds on his body still bled profusely, staining his robe red.

"Maybe something's wrong."

Lian Ye didn't immediately return to inform Ban Daye, but instead had A Fei find a concealed spot to treat the wounds.

If the bleeding doesn't stop, he'll meet his end here.

If it weren't for the Flying Thunder God escape technique, he would have been able to burst out of the encirclement.

The Capture and Seize Tail Beast mission failed; Ban Daye should understand.

Lian Ye was very satisfied with the outcome of this operation.

He told both the Ninja Alliance and Ban Daye the reason for capturing the Tailed Beast, and also made them understand the importance of protecting the Tailed Beast.

Putting the matter out in the open greatly increased the difficulty of capturing the Six-Tails!

Unless Ban Daye wants to face the entire Ninja Alliance alone.

Otherwise, without a few years, don't even think about catching a Tailed Beast yourself.

"A Fei, you should know how to explain to Lord Ban, right?"

After Lian Ye finished treating his wounds, he stared straight at A Fei, his tone full of threat.

Although he thought his plan was fine, he didn't want Bai Jue to disrupt it.

Before seeking Ban Daye, he needs to prepare the testimony in advance.

Otherwise, if Bai Jue talks nonsense, things will become troublesome.

Given Ban Daye's personality, he would certainly trust the Bai Jue he created rather than Lian Ye's one-sided account.

"Eh?" A Fei sounded bewildered, "How should I explain?"

Its simple brain isn't capable of pondering that question.

Lian Ye looked deeply at A Fei's dumb expression and said in a deep voice.

"Just tell the truth."

With Bai Jue's level of intelligence, she probably wouldn't embellish the story.

Speaking that, he dragged his severely wounded body, preparing to return the way he came.

A Fei, seeing this, hurriedly followed, each with their own ultimate skill walking side by side.

"Lord Lian Ye, I have a question for you."

"Speak."

"What does the feeling of needing to go feel like?"

"……"

Deep underground, dozens of meters down, an open Underground Space.

"Lord Ban, we're back."

Madara Uchiha slowly opened his eyes, noticing Lian Ye's pallid complexion, his eyebrows faintly furrowing.

"Kid, where is the Tailed Beast I want?"

That kid went out and came back empty-handed.

It's hard not to doubt his loyalty.

"Cough…"

Lian Ye was about to explain when he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood, quickly covering his mouth with his hand.

Seeing this, Madara Uchiha's eyebrows deepened in a frown.

"Kid, what exactly happened?"

He has witnessed Lian Ye's strength; ordinary ninjas would find it hard to wound him this way.

There must have been something…

"Lord Ban, the nations of the Ninja World have noticed the Tailed Beasts being lost one after another, so they spontaneously formed a Ninja Alliance to protect the Six-Tails Jinchuriki of Kirigakure Village."

"I was injured by the Ninja Alliance…"

Lian Ye roughly outlined the cause and effect of the incident, but secretly omitted some statements that were unfavorable to him.

For example, inadvertently revealing the purpose of capturing the Tailed Beast and other improper remarks.

"So you're saying the nations suddenly organized to protect the Tailed Beasts?"

Madara Uchiha heard this and a hint of surprise appeared on his face.

Logically, the likelihood of such an event is very low, unless someone secretly leaked information to the nations.

Otherwise, those ignorant guys would never be able to unite.

He instinctively looked at the pallid Lian Ye and immediately identified his suspect.

The kid indeed wasn't as loyal as he imagined.

Even though it was almost the final moment, he still tried to set a trap for him.

However, Madara Uchiha did not expose Lian Ye.

At this point, the truth no longer mattered.

Their primary goal is to gather the Nine Tailed Beasts, thereby directly reviving the Ten-Tails!

"Ninja World Alliance?" Madara Uchiha sneered, "Just a bunch of country chickens and mongrels."

One ant is an ant; a swarm of ants together is still just ants.

In the face of absolute power, all resistance is futile.

"Kid, I'll give you another month. Can you capture a Tailed Beast?"

Madara Uchiha's sharp gaze stared straight into Lian Ye's eyes, his voice unusually calm, revealing no hint of joy or anger.

Time waits for no one; he intends to give Lian Ye one final chance.

"Moon's Eye" plan must be realized as soon as possible.

Delay brings disaster; procrastination is not allowed!

Although he doesn't understand why Lian Ye deliberately stalls the collection of Tailed Beasts, he knows this kid certainly has no good excuse.

Time waits for no one; Madara Uchiha doesn't want to waste any more time with Lian Ye.

One last time, he prepares to give Lian Ye a final opportunity!

He hopes this kid will truly cherish it…

"One month?" Lian Ye's face showed conflict, and he helplessly said, "I'll try my best."

Seems Ban Daye is really anxious!

Clearly aware that thousands of Ninja Alliance forces block the way, yet only a month is given for preparation.

He doesn't dare to guarantee it; he can only say he'll try.

Who can say for sure what will happen a month later.

Moreover, the thousands of Ninja Alliance aren't meek; even if he wants to capture, it may not be possible.

Ban Daye is simply making an impossible demand.

Not everyone can be as twisted as him, a single person taking on tens of thousands of Ninja Alliance.

Of course, only when he's young.

Given Ban Daye's current condition, dealing with him is already challenging, let alone the well‑trained thousands of Ninja Alliance.

When the time comes, showing up with a cane would just make them laugh to death!

Madara Uchiha quietly observed Lian Ye's performance, and finally slowly closed his eyes.

"For these days, just stay here to heal your wounds."

At first he treated Lian Ye as a like‑minded junior, but as time passed, his view gradually changed.

This kid's heart has always been in Konoha; he never considered achieving ideals together with him.

Anyway, it's fine; the plan is about to succeed.

Even if Lian Ye no longer helps him capture Tailed Beasts, it won't have a major impact.

Madara Uchiha has never placed his hopes in others.

He has always believed that only he can bring true peace to the Ninja World!

As for everyone else, they're merely pieces he uses.

"Kid, what dreams do you have?"

After an unknown amount of time, Lian Ye, lying on the bed resting, heard Ban Daye's question.

He was momentarily bewildered.

The word "dream" feels distant to him.

At first, Lian Ye only wanted to become stronger and survive in this perilous world.

If you must call it a dream, it's simply to survive.

Now it seems his dream was already realized unconsciously.

"Lord Ban, my dream is simply to survive."

Madara Uchiha said nothing, still keeping his eyes closed and maintaining a meditative posture.

Seeing this, Lian Ye couldn't help but doubt himself: had he just experienced an auditory hallucination?

It could be caused by excessive blood loss.

Never mind, first heal the wound.
