Chapter 552: Cannot Change

Lian Ye and Zhi Cun Tuan Zang greeted Yuzhibo Quannai, then left the camp and headed to the battlefield.

Before parting, Quannai specifically instructed to look after the wounded clan members on the battlefield.

The two did not refuse.

"Lian Ye, what will you do if Teacher Feijian finds out about this?"

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang looked at Lian Ye with worry.

He thought that his good brother joining the Uchiha side in this timeline was not a good choice. Moreover, he had promised Yuzhibo Quannai to help the wounded Uchiha Clan's Members on the battlefield.

If Teacher Feijian discovers it, Lian Ye definitely won't get away unscathed!

For some reason, he always felt that his good brother was about to have terrible luck and might implicate him.

He couldn't explain why he felt that way, but could only subconsciously warn his good brother to be careful.

Rescuing some Uchiha Clan's Members on the battlefield is one thing, but he must never entertain the thought of bullying Teacher Feijian of this timeline.

After all, who can guarantee that the timeline they are in is truly a parallel one?

If, by chance, the two arrived in the past of their own timeline, wouldn't Lian Ye's actions be a covert alteration of history?

"Don't panic; it's just a parallel timeline."

After the previous time‑travel journey, it made him realize that the timelines they traverse are all parallel worlds of the original work.

They cannot affect the era they are in at all.

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang watched his good brother's resolute demeanor, yet his worry still hadn't dissipated.

He just hadn't spoken it out.

Since Lian Ye is so resolute, there should be no problem…

The Uchiha camp was only thirty li from the battlefield, and the two quickly arrived at the Frontline Battlefield.

At this moment, the Uchiha and Senju peoples were fighting fiercely.

"Hashirama!"

"Madara!"

The junior clan heads of the two peoples roared and launched fierce attacks at each other.

Those unaware would think the two were engaged in a life‑or‑death duel.

But Lian Ye saw that the two were clearly goofing off; the battle was all thunderous talk and little rain.

It hadn't caused any significant damage at all.

Or rather, there was never any damage to begin with.

In contrast, the Uchiha Clan's Members and Senju People were eager

to kill each other instantly.

"You wait here; I'm going to rescue two Uchiha Clan's Members first," Lian Ye instructed Tuan Cang, fearing his good brother would get involved.

The battlefield is more dangerous; he didn't want Tuan Cang to risk his life, as real danger would be troublesome.

After all, the lowest participants are Chunin, and many are Jonin‑level fighters.

He should handle this; after all, he promised Yuzhibo Quannai.

In the eastern battlefield of Fire Country, battle cries rang to the heavens.

A Uchiha Clan's Member was drenched in blood, his chakra nearly exhausted.

He was half‑kneeling, gasping violently, with a flash of resentment in his eyes.

"Damn, am I going to meet my end here today?"

"So unwilling… we didn't even live to see the end of the war…"

A Senju Person sneered as he approached, the Tachi in his hand flashing with cold light.

"Uchiha scum, stop your futile struggle and just get hurt!"

He raised the Tachi high, aiming at the helpless opponent.

The Uchiha Clan's Member closed his eyes in defiance, preparing to welcome death.

War is like that; a life can be snatched away with ease.

Yet people of the Ninja World are accustomed to it, even the dying one feels no issue.

However, the expected excruciating pain never arrived.

Instinctively, he opened his eyes and saw a long‑haired man standing before him, his arrival unnoticed.

The man used only one hand to seize the Senju Person's wrist holding the Tachi, leaving the blade suspended mid‑air, unable to advance!

The Senju Person's face flushed red as he strained with all his might to break free, only to find the other's hand unmoving.

"Lian… Lian Ye, my lord?!" the rescued Uchiha Clan's Member exclaimed in disbelief.

He was a clan member who had come to the front with Yuzhibo Quannai, and naturally recognized this strong figure whom even Quannai revered.

He hadn't expected that, at the brink of death, this lord saved him!

Lian Ye didn't turn around, merely said calmly, "Go down and treat your wounds."

"Yes, thank you, Lord Lian Ye!"

The Uchiha Clan's Member, as if pardoned, endured the pain, staggered to his feet, and swiftly retreated toward the rear of the battlefield.

But shortly after he left, other Senju People caught up.

He ultimately met a gruesome death beneath the enemy's blade.

The Senju Person suppressed by Lian Ye had eyes full of terror and despair.

He, a distinguished Senju Jonin, could not break free of the other's control.

How strong could this guy possibly be!

Just as he despaired awaiting death, he realized Lian Ye hadn't dealt a killing blow, but instead released his grip on the wrist.

Senju people: "???"

What happened? Why didn't he kill himself?

Lian Ye simply turned his head aside and calmly gave him a glance.

In that gaze there was no murderous intent, nor anger or contempt, only indifference.

Then, amid his puzzled stare, Lian Ye vanished silently.

"We can't change their fate, can we?"

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang naturally saw the outcome of the Uchiha clan member that Lian Ye had rescued.

"Everyone has their destiny; I did my best."

Lian Ye helped only because he had promised Yuzhibo Quannai.

But fate does not obey wishes; even if he saved the Uchiha clan member, they would soon die.

Perhaps that's what they call a plot kill.

"Then do you still want to help?" Zhi Cun Tuan Zang turned his head aside, looking puzzled at his good brother.

"I'll give it a try; I already promised them."

Lian Ye did not refuse; instead he again stepped in to aid other Uchiha clan members trapped in danger.

Some members died soon after being rescued, while others survived smoothly.

But this does not prove Lian Ye altered history; it only shows their lives were not meant to end.

Even without his help, some could have lived.

When the Senju people find themselves about to slay the Uchiha, there is always someone who comes to stop them, yet never attacks them.

The matter quickly reached the Senju Commander's Tent.

"You mean someone is stopping us from killing the Uchiha?"

Qianshou Feijian looked puzzled, not understanding what the other's purpose was.

What's the use of stopping the Senju from killing Uchiha clan members...

"Looks like I have to go to the Battlefield myself to investigate."

Qianshou Feijian was at a loss, finally deciding to go to the Battlefield himself to see what that guy's intention was!

"Lord Feijian, Lord Hashirama won't let you go to the Battlefield..." the reporting Senju person said weakly.

Although Lord Feijian's prestige in the clan is high, who made the junior clan head Lord Hashirama?

"I'll explain this matter to the big brother myself."

Qianshou Feijian knew that Yuzhibo Quannai had already gone to the front line and was now likely arriving at the Battlefield.

When that time comes, even if the big brother blames him, he can use Yuzhibo Quannai as a shield.

Moreover, if he doesn't go to the Battlefield, who knows how long the big brother will keep messing around...
