Chapter 662: Two Tail Beasts?!

Lian Ye said, "How can they still not be back after being gone for so many days?"

Turns out they went traveling to other timelines!

If it weren't for Ri Zhan's reminder, he would still have been kept in the dark.

Having idled in the Village for such a long time, he really needs to stretch his limbs.

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang, watching his good brother's eager expression, instantly felt a bad premonition.

This guy isn't about to cause trouble again, is he?!

If he tricks himself into going to another timeline and gets caught by Teacher Feijian when he returns…

He'll definitely get a beating.

Ever since being hung on a tree and beaten by Teacher Feijian a few years ago, Tuan Cang has developed a shadow over time travel.

After all, Teacher Feijian really does hit when angry!

His body simply can't endure Teacher Feijian's iron‑fist lessons…

"Tuan Cang, shall we go have some fun as well?" Lian Ye suggested. "There's nothing to do just staying at home sunbathing."

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang: "……"

He knew his good brother would say that.

Is it an acceptance or a refusal?

Actually time travel isn't a big deal; as long as you don't show your face, there's no problem.

In that case, even if Teacher Feijian finds out, he wouldn't say anything.

If he does beat someone, it'll only be Lian Ye…

That should be right, shouldn't it?

After a moment of hesitation, Tuan Cang nodded.

He hasn't time‑travelled with Lian Ye for such a long stretch, so there shouldn't be any problem.

All I need to do is keep Lian Ye in check and stop him from causing trouble!

In the end, Tuan Cang didn't decline Lian Ye's invitation.

Yuanfei Rizhan saw this and his mouth twitched slightly.

Didn't he say he wouldn't travel with Lian Ye anymore?

Why is he backtracking now?

After being beaten by Teacher Feijian back then, he didn't say that to them!

Still doesn't refuse, still doesn't learn, still remembers eating but forgets the beating!

"I want to go too!"

Yuanfei Rizhan looked at the two planning to time‑travel and couldn't hold back.

What gives them the right to jump to other timelines while I'm stuck in the office handling paperwork?

No way, I'm going too!

After being Hokage for so many years, working himself to death daily, can't I enjoy myself?

"If you go, who will handle the paperwork?" Zhi Cun Tuan Zang asked with a frown.

Back then, when he traveled with Lian Ye, he made sure all his duties were handed over before leaving.

Ri Zhan wants to leave, but it's not that easy!

Yuanfei Rizhan: "……"

"Yeah, who will handle the paperwork when he's gone?"

Before, Tuan Cang had his own workhorse serving as acting Hokage, but I have no acting Hokage to assist!

Mirror, Men Yan, Xiaochun, Ben Ye?

No need to think; those guys would definitely refuse to be my workhorse.

"Take your time handling the paperwork in the Village," Lian Ye patted his shoulder. "We'll share what we see when we get back."

Yuanfei Rizhan: "……"

Murder and vengeance!

He can't even go; what's the point of sharing!

He didn't stay long, turned away with a gloomy face and left.

The administrative work wasn't finished, so he clearly couldn't stay too long.

Otherwise he wouldn't be able to finish before nightfall.

Hokage Office.

Yuanfei Rizhan sat at the desk, sighing continuously at the pile of documents.

Depressed, really too depressed.

Lian Ye and Tuan Cang went out again, while he could only stay in the Village handling affairs.

Just thinking of them touring mountains and waters, experiencing other timelines' customs…

He even lost the mood to handle paperwork.

"What do you think people should do to ease their mood when they're sad?"

Yuanfei Rizhan suddenly spoke toward the darkness.

He knelt on one knee in the shadows, paused in silence, and said.

"Lord Hokage, you could try tobacco; it's said to bring body and mind pleasure…"

He actually doesn't know if it's allowed; he just saw ads saying that.

"Want a smoke?"

Hokage Sarutobi Ri Zhan's eyes flickered.

Give it a try; who knows, it might work.

The other side.

Qianshou Feijian and the three others passed through the dragon vein and successfully arrived in another timeline.

"So this is another timeline? It feels like nothing's changed…"

Uchiha Jing looked around and found the surroundings no different from before the crossing.

"Let's first go to the nearest village to assess the situation."

Madara Uchiha, having crossed once with Lian Ye, instructed the few of them based on his previous experience.

"No problem!"

Senju Hashirama naturally wouldn't refuse and split his forces into four to search for the village.

Soon, they learned the approximate era.

It was the sixtieth year of Konoha, and they were in Thunder Country.

After gathering information, Senju Hashirama wanted to return to the village to see the situation.

The others didn't refuse either; they all wanted to see how this Konoha of the timeline was.

Who knows, it might be twenty years after their own timeline…

Konoha Village.

"Seems it's not the future of our own timeline."

Qianshou Feijian looked at the backward architectural style and shook his head helplessly.

If he hadn't known this was Konoha's sixtieth year, he would have thought it was around the twentieth year.

"Wait, why is there chakra from two Tailed Beasts?"

Qianshou Feijian furrowed his brows.

His powerful perception let him detect chakra from two Tailed Beasts within the village.

One was the Nine-Tails, the other seemed to be…

Before he could continue thinking, an anomaly suddenly erupted!

In the distance, the Konoha Forest suddenly revealed a gigantic, sand‑covered raccoon!

It was unmistakably the Tailed Beast of Sunagakure Village!

"Why is Shou He appearing in the village?"

Senju Hashirama's expression turned serious as he realized something was amiss.

"Madara, let's go take a look."

Even though it's not his own timeline, Konoha Village is still the village he and Madara founded.

They couldn't let the Tailed Beast run rampant and cause destruction!

Madara Uchiha glanced at his friend's rare serious demeanor and gave a slight nod.

He knew the village was Hashirama's Achilles' heel; no one could destroy it…

Qianshou Feijian didn't follow them; instead, he looked toward the Hokage Building.

There, Orochimaru and a monkey's chakra were present.

"You stay here; I'll be back soon."

He said something to Yuzhibo Quannai and sprinted toward the Hokage Building.

"Old thing, who are you looking down on?"

Yuzhibo Quannai muttered irritably, also running toward the Hokage Building.

If Lian Ye were here, he would certainly understand what had happened…

Orochimaru cooperated with Sunagakure Village, devising the Konoha Collapse Plan; ultimately, Third Hokage Hokage Sarutobi Ri Zhan employed the Corpse Demon Seal to seal the First Hokage and Second Hokage, and also sealed Orochimaru's hands.

Because of that, the souls of Konoha from the First Hokage to the Fourth Hokage ended up inside the Grim Reaper.

In front of the Hokage Building.

"Teacher, you're old," Orochimaru said with a smile, his hands rapidly forming seals, "At this age, you can't stop me!"

His words hung in the air as three coffins were about to burst from the ground.

Hokage Sarutobi Ri Zhan saw this and strained to stop it, ultimately preventing the third coffin.

"Was it stopped?" Orochimaru smiled faintly, "But that's fine."

In his view, the two inside were enough to deal with the teacher.
