I'm in the Dragon Clan, bound to the Naruto Counterattack System

Chapter 124 The Embryo of the Six Paths Power

Everything stagnated within the domain constructed by Erii's Word of Power. Agents from the surrounding Snake Clan were excluded from the domain, and raindrops hovered in mid-air, reflecting the lights of Shibuya.

Cheng Sui's blade was less than an inch from Yuan Zhisheng's chest.

But no matter how much power he exerted, the grass sword wrapped in lightning could not advance even an inch further.

Just then, Cheng Sui's chakra underwent a strange change.

The two distinct chakra streams, belonging to the Uchiha and Uzumaki/Senju clans respectively, actually merged slightly under the pressure of the Word of Power domain.

It was this energy released from the fused chakra that made Cheng Sui feel light all over.

The shackles of the Word of Power were broken in an instant.

He regained his ability to move.

But he did not continue to swing the sword, which contained the power of the Thousand Bird Spear.

Erii was willing to use the trial just to stop their fight.

Cheng Sui would not allow Erii to be caught in the middle between him and Genjiro, unable to make a decision.

"Clang."

The Kusanagi sword returned to its sheath, and the lightning faded away.

Cheng Sui turned and walked towards Erii. He saw several black lines of blood spreading upwards along the girl's snow-white, slender neck. Cheng Sui understood that this was a sign that the dragon blood was intensifying its erosion.

Trial is essentially the power of words to forcibly impose a death sentence.

At this moment, Erii was using this to stop the fight while ensuring that neither of them was harmed, which was an extremely demanding test of her self-control.

Cheng Sui raised his hand, and a soft green halo appeared in his palm.

The Yang Release chakra, representing life and vitality, gently touched Erii's neck through his warm palm.

Chakra seeped into her skin, nourishing the girl's body like a gentle spring breeze and rain.

Those hideous black blood vessels slowly faded away under the suppression of this force.

"Release the spell," Cheng Sui said to Erii. "Your brother and I will stop fighting."

Erii looked up, her pupils reflecting Cheng Sui's earnest face.

Only when Cheng Sui nodded affirmatively to her did she finally feel relieved and release the spell.

The moment the domain disappeared, the rain that had been suspended in the air for several seconds lost control.

The accumulated rain poured down in an instant.

"Splash!"

The torrential rain soaked Yuan Zhisheng, who was still standing there in a daze, from head to toe.

Rainwater slid down his black bangs, making him look disheveled.

Cheng Sui and Erii stood unharmed under the black umbrella.

As Yuan Zhisheng watched Cheng Sui gently brush the water droplets from Erii's hair, he couldn't understand how his sister, whom he had cared for for so many years, could so naturally become dependent on another man in just two short days.

Erii looked at her brother, who was soaking wet, and her face showed reluctance.

She looked at Cheng Sui, then at Yuan Zhisheng standing alone in the heavy rain, her expression conflicted.

Cheng Sui saw through the girl's thoughts.

He took Erii's hand and led her to Genjiro's side.

Erii carefully raised the umbrella high, holding it over Genji's head to shield him from the continuous rain.

The girl's gaze kept shifting between the two men's faces, as if afraid they would turn on each other again at any moment.

She held up her notebook and wrote a line in her neat handwriting.

"Brother and Naruto are not allowed to fight."

Cheng Sui and Yuan Zhisheng exchanged a knowing glance, both seeing compromise in each other's eyes.

They both nodded at the same time.

"Tell your men to leave." Cheng Sui glanced at the tightly packed members of the Snake Clan around him. "Let's talk somewhere else. You should understand that these people are no different from me."

Yuan Zhisheng did not refute.

He waved his hand, giving the order for his men to lift the siege.

It's still the same coffee shop as before.

Erii ate the shop's special vanilla ice cream in small bites, sitting nervously between Cheng Sui and Yuan Zhisheng.

She was like a vigilant kitten, constantly watching the movements of the men on either side of her.

The previously talkative boss wisely refrained from approaching.

The man in black, soaking wet, exuded such a terrifying aura that he felt the other man might draw his sword and attack at any moment.

Looking at the two people silently confronting each other, and the girl caught in the middle, the boss's mind was already filled with a heart-wrenching love tragedy.

A noblewoman elopes with the man she loves, only to be forcibly separated by a cold-blooded assassin sent by her family.

Yuan Zhisheng's gaze fell on Cheng Sui, his face expressionless.

But his mind was in turmoil, worrying about what Cheng Sui had done to Erii in the past two days.

On the way from the streets of Shibuya to the coffee shop, he clearly sensed that Erii's dependence on Cheng Sui was no longer a simple one.

That kind of complete trust and closeness was something he had never seen in his sister before.

This made him feel inexplicably lost.

On the surface, Cheng Sui remained calm and composed, seemingly unfazed by the bloodline pressure emanating from Yuan Zhisheng. In reality, his consciousness had already sunk into his body.

Deepest inside his body.

The Yin Release chakra belonging to the Uchiha clan and the Yang Release chakra belonging to the Uzumaki and Senju clans unexpectedly fused together in a trace under the pressure of Erii's Word of Power.

This product of fusion exudes an incomparably powerful force.

Long ago, Cheng Sui had vaguely sensed that the two completely different chakra within his body were showing signs of merging.

But he could never quite grasp that feeling of fusion.

Today, however, under pressure from external forces, we have passively completed this first step.

It's more like a kind of chakra within the body, autonomously resisting the oppression of the dragon race's power.

Feeling the strange energy within his body, Cheng Sui was unsure whether this was the legendary power of the Six Paths.

After all, he had never seen what the true power of the Six Paths actually looked like.

Even if it were truly the power of the Six Paths, such a small amount wouldn't amount to much.

But Cheng Sui's intuition told him that this power was crucial to him.

Perhaps this is the key he will use to counter the rule-based incantations of the dragon race in the future.

Looking at Cheng Sui, whose expression was as calm as a lake, Yuan Zhisheng finally couldn't hold back.

He extended his finger and tapped the table lightly.

Let's talk.

Erii had just finished the last bite of her ice cream.

Like a frightened hamster, she shrank her neck, sensing the heavy atmosphere in the air once again.

Inside the lounge of a high-end beauty salon.

Mai looked at the three people who had inexplicably returned to the cafe in the surveillance footage, her expression somewhat helpless.

How come these three people are stuck together like glue again?

What about the life-or-death struggle she envisioned, and that heart-wrenching emotional choice?

"Long Legs, your plan won't work either." Su Enxi's muffled voice came through the earpiece. "What should we do now? The boss will be furious when he finds out."

Mai shrugged: "Who would have thought that our seemingly naive bride would actually have the highest fighting skills among the three of us?"

"I'm out of options. Let the boss deduct my wages if he wants. If you have a solution, you should take matters into your own hands."

"How am I supposed to handle this?" Su Enxi lay on the big bed, her feet, clad in cartoon-patterned socks, swinging irritably. "Should I give him a few million US dollars to keep him away from our silly girl? But he doesn't look like the kind of scumbag who would abandon a girl for money."

"I can't possibly—have myself seduce him, can I?"

"Maybe it'll work," Mai Shude said with a hint of flirtation. "Maybe he likes the college student type like you."

Su Enxi gritted her teeth: "What college student type? I'm a sophisticated businesswoman!"

"A businesswoman who loves potato chips, cries buckets while watching Korean dramas, is addicted to video games every day, and even has Pikachu printed on her underwear?" Mai Shude revealed her secrets as if she knew them by heart.

"Sake Virtue Mai!"

Su Enxi blushed deeply, and her voice instantly rose an octave.

"Wait a minute." Mai Shude interrupted Su Enxi's impending outburst of complaints. "The boss sent a message."

She opened her phone, and after reading the brief message from Lu Mingze, the languidness and mockery on her face vanished instantly, replaced by a coldness.

"Entertainment is over, time for potato chips."

"The boss has issued a new task."
