Chapter 189 Passing on Qi
Hua Ling estimated the time, and just as she broke through the encirclement, not knowing where to run, a little girl rushed out, "Sister Hua Ling, I'll take you away."
"No, why didn't Xiaoyu leave?" But now is not the time to ask that; escaping is the priority.
The little girl pulled Hua Ling through the village, but even though she was familiar with the terrain, she was still caught up.
"Xiaoyu, go and fire this signal flare. I'll hold them off," Hua Ling instructed, pushing the person away to meet them.
While they haven't found her weakness yet, we should still be able to hold them off for a while.
Xiaoyu held the object in her hand, unsure of how to use it. Seeing Sister Hualing injured, she became even more anxious and unable to use it effectively.
Hua Ling also looked frustrated, "I hope the signal flare Zhi Shui gave her isn't a dud! That would be disastrous!"
She was supposed to set it off today, but plans change. After thinking for a moment, she shouted, "Xiaoyu, throw it directly into the fire and hurry up!"
She took a solid hit after being warned.
The man felt something was wrong and sent people to intercept Xiaoyu, but they were stopped by Hualing.
"Why can't I still hear a sound? Is it really a dud?"
The leading man laughed loudly, too lazy to send anyone to chase after the little girl.
He had his men distract Hua Ling and surround her.
Just then, a loud 'bang' rang out, followed by a tiny burst of sparks that quickly disappeared without a trace.
It turns out that Hua Ling had lost the fuse of the signal flare, and it was accidentally released when it was thrown into the fire.
Small fireworks blooming in the sky are easily missed if you're not careful. It's better to throw them into the fire and make the sound of a bomb. I wonder if Shisui could understand that.
Shisui happened to notice this, and instead of remaining unmoved, he took a few steps forward.
"Where are you going? Do you still want to see your sister?!" Miss Han immediately spoke up to stop him. She was waiting for that old man to appear so that Zhi Shui could make a move.
Now that Shisui has left, their group will probably have to pay a heavy price to deal with that guy.
Zhi Shui paused, a sense of unease rising within him. His intuition told him to hurry over. "Hua Ling, wait for me!"
Hua Ling's ears were severely impaired, and Zhi Shui hadn't appeared even after the signal flare had been fired for so long. She figured they hadn't found this place, so she pretended to be outmatched to confuse the enemy and then ran away.
Unfamiliar with the terrain and unable to see, he was caught up after only a few steps. "This time I've really messed up."
"Run, keep running!" the leading man said mockingly, pinching Hua Ling's chin, his eyes full of ill intent.
Hua Ling couldn't stand it any longer, so she kicked him in the lower body and ran away again as he clutched his crotch in pain.
She hadn't run two steps when she bumped into someone. Smelling a familiar scent, her eyes filled with tears, she leaned against him and said in a pitiful voice, "Brother, you're finally here."
Zhi Shui hugged the person in front of him tightly, his heart filled with the joy of having her back. "I will never allow you to leave my side again, never." He almost lost her.
Upon seeing Uchiha Shisui, the man ignored his pain and turned to run. Just as he made a move, Shisui shot out a kunai that blinded him in the other eye.
Those around him panicked and fled in all directions, paying no attention to him whatsoever.
"Brother, I want to kill him with my own hands!" Hua Ling, now with a powerful backer, became arrogant and spoke viciously.
"I'll take care of it!" Shisui didn't want her to have any further contact with him. He should have just killed her back then instead of losing an eye.
As soon as he finished speaking, the man fell straight to the ground, with a knife wound on his neck.
"Let's go!" Zhi Shui whispered as he picked up Hua Ling.
"Brother, please help them. I am a great man and cannot stand by and watch them die." Hua Ling wrapped her arms around his neck, looking unwilling to leave.
"No, you need to treat your injuries as soon as possible," Zhi Shui said with disapproval.
"It's just a minor injury, I can bear it."
"Brother is so amazing, he'll definitely handle it in no time," Hua Ling immediately added, praising him.
In the end, Zhishui had no choice but to turn against her and kill these people, mainly to avenge Hualing.
Miss Han sensed something was wrong when she saw Hua Ling. Driven by jealousy, she made a wrong decision and ordered everyone to attack Hua Ling's location.
This prompted Uchiha Shisui to immediately activate his Mangekyou Sharingan and summon Susanoo to annihilate all attackers. It was a pity that Hana couldn't see it, otherwise her eyes would have been filled with wonder.
Before she died, Miss Han tried to seduce Shisui to save her life, but Shisui didn't see her at all and was accidentally swept away and killed by Susanoo.
"Brother, is it all done?" Hua Ling asked, not hearing any movement.
"Hmm!" Shisui released 'Susanoo', looked down at her, and responded.
Having received the answer she wanted, Hua Ling could no longer hold on and fainted.
"Hua Ling... Hua Ling..." Zhi Shui was momentarily flustered.
Fortunately, a doctor from the village came up and examined Hua Ling. He found that she had just fainted from exhaustion, and Zhi Shui was relieved.
The two stayed in the village to rest for a while and learn about the incident. They stayed until the people from the Daimyo's mansion came to finish up the work and discuss the development of the area. At this time, the Konoha ninja also arrived. It felt like the opportunity had already been missed.
Having regained her status as a famous woman, Hua Ling felt a sense of triumph. After being completely controlled by Zhi Shui Guan for so long, it was finally her turn.
However, she only showed her face once before leaving Xidi. If she lingered any longer, her eyes would definitely be spotted. This time, the people from Daming Prefecture saw that Daming was alright and made some arrangements, so she could go out and have some fun again.
"Brother, where are we going next?" Hua Ling asked expectantly.
"We're not going anywhere. Let's focus on getting your injury healed first."
"Ah, I'm all better now."
"Then let's rest for a while longer."
"I do not want."
"Refusal is invalid; you have no choice but to listen to me."
"Then I'll cover my ears."
Shisui didn't retaliate after being teased. He picked the person up in his arms and jumped off the cliff to a place known only to the two of them.
Once they arrived at their destination, they put Hua Ling down. "Change your clothes; you must be uncomfortable being restrained like this."
Hua Ling turned her head away and deliberately said, "No, unless you change it for me."
“Okay.” Zhi Shui said and walked closer.
Hua Ling sensed Zhi Shui's approach and immediately took a few steps back. "I think it's better to do it myself."
"Hmm." Zhi Shui had anticipated her reaction, a smile playing on his lips. He turned and walked to the side, seemingly busy with something.
Over the next period of time, Zhishui gradually transformed the place into a home, taking care of her in every detail, while Hualing was responsible for having fun every day. Although she couldn't see, the smile on her face never stopped.
"Brother, I want to go fishing today. Can you make me a fishing rod?" Hua Ling asked, looking at the place where they were knocking and banging.
"Okay, but we'll have to wait a bit." Zhi Shui agreed with a doting expression.
"I know, I'll be right here listening to you make the fishing rod." Hua Ling sat on a small armchair made by Zhishui Crafts, resting her chin on her hands with an expectant look on her face.
"Okay, I'll be waiting for the fish you catch for dinner tonight." Zhishui stopped what he was doing and started making a fishing rod.
"Sure, sure, I'll make sure you eat your fill!" Hua Ling boasted, already imagining herself catching a whole bucketful.
After sitting for a while, Hua Ling started to get a little bored. She quickly came up with a good idea, "Brother, can you summon your spirit beast to play with me?"
Upon hearing this, Zhi Shui put down what he was holding and exclaimed, "Spirit Summoning Technique!" Five crows appeared on the ground, and he picked one up and placed it in Hua Ling's hand.
Hua Ling touched it, "Brother, is this Ya Er...?"
As soon as he said it, Zhishui's expression froze for a moment.
Hua Ling then realized why she had blurted out the name of the Zhishui spirit beast, even though it was the first time she had held it.
As soon as she thought that, many images flashed through her mind.
Shisui snapped out of his daze and understood somewhat. He didn't ask or question him, but pretended not to know and went back to what he was doing.
Hua Ling heard the voice and realized that Zhi Shui must not have heard it, otherwise she wouldn't know how to cover it up.
She played with the spirit beast while waiting for Shisui to make the fishing rod.
Once the fishing rod was made, Zhi Shui led her to a body of water. "Hua Ling, you fish first, I'll go get you some bait."
"No need, brother."
"I can catch fish even without bait, so just wait and see what I get tonight!" Hua Ling said confidently.
"Okay, I'll wait." Zhi Shui chuckled and watched Hua Ling fish. He noticed that she wasn't using any bait and the hook wasn't even in the water. He figured she couldn't see or know, so it would be strange if she caught any fish.
"I'll secretly hook a few for her later, otherwise she'll definitely be unhappy if she doesn't catch any fish."
It takes a long, long time to coax them when they're unhappy; this is the result of our time together.
Just as Zhi Shui was thinking this, a big, lively fish leaped up and bit the hook. This was perhaps the legendary "willing fish take the bait".
Hua Ling exclaimed happily, "Brother, look! I caught a fish!"
The next second, she was pulled into the water by the big fish. "Brother, help!"
Zhi Shui immediately jumped into the water, quickly swam to Hua Ling's side, and grabbed her.
Hua Ling instinctively clung tightly to Zhi Shui. Just as he was about to pull her to the shore, he noticed that Hua Ling's expression was off and quickly gave her a breath of fresh air.
The breath seemed to linger a bit, making it look more like a kiss.
The two returned to shore, Zhi Shui blushed deeply, but he managed to remain calm and said, "Hua Ling, I'll take you to change your clothes."
Hua Ling grabbed him, and he immediately stopped. Then, a soft touch gently brushed against his chin.
"Hua Ling, do you know what you're doing?"
"I know, I just can't see or find the mouth to kiss. Maybe it's because my brother is too tall," Hua Ling said, her voice full of complaint.
Zhi Shui was completely taken aback by her, but he wasn't a blockhead. He pulled her into his arms and lowered his head to cover her.
Do men all have an innate talent for this? They were so inexperienced before, and now they're so skilled.
Seemingly noticing her lack of focus, he tightened the water a bit more, expressing his displeasure.
Hua Ling was overwhelmed and had no time to think about anything else, so she tried her best to accept Zhi Shui's kiss.
From now on, this kind of thing will happen here every day. If we disregard his identity, Zhishui would wish to live like this forever, for the rest of his life.
