In Konoha, they wiped out the Sarutobi clan at the start.

Chapter 121 Erzhuzi Gets Beaten Up Again

"I can't tell you that," Qianye shook her head.

A hint of resentment flickered in Yuhi Kurenai's beautiful eyes as she playfully retorted, "Were you just teasing me?"

Hearing this, Chiya was certain that Kurenai Yuhi had fallen completely in love with him. He smiled slightly, reached into her collar with his right hand, and pulled out the necklace with the pure gold ring attached. Changing the subject, he said, "It seems you've kept this ring all this time. Do you remember the bet we made when we first met?"

"I don't remember." Kurenai blushed and turned her head away from Chiya's gaze.

How could she forget those words, "When I grow up, I'll date you"?

Who knew that the joke would become a reality today?

"Then I'll help you remember." Chiya picked up Kurenai in a princess carry.

"What do you want to do?" Kurenai Yuhi sensed something and her heart immediately panicked.

"I want to." Chiya smiled and, in a flash, carried Yuhi Kurenai into the room.

Before long, beautiful music filled the room.

The fifth piece, Red Sunset!

Thousands of words omitted here!

(This is a side story, published on the seventh day. I've already completed five days of five chapters, and I still have two days left. After that, I'll continue writing the side story.)

The next morning, just as dawn was breaking.

The room of Kurenai Yuhi was in complete disarray.

Fragments of fishing net bodysuits and ninja bandages were scattered all over the ground.

The desk, the bed, the door—all bore the marks of their discussion.

Kurenai nestled wearily in Chiya's arms, the two of them covered only by a single quilt.

Beneath the quilt lies a vast expanse of spring sunshine.

Looking at Kurenai Yuhi, who was even more beautiful than yesterday, Chiya pursed her lips and gently ran her fingers through her fluffy curly hair.

At this moment, Kurenai woke up slowly and saw the mischievous smile on Chiyo's face. She rolled her eyes at her and said coquettishly, "You rascal, are you a dog? You're never satisfied and don't know how to be gentle with a woman."

"Hehe, isn't it because you're too charming, teacher?" Chiya chuckled, having already completely devoured Kurenai Yuhi, he became even more unrestrained, teasing, "Besides, I wonder who was it last night who was yelling 'Don't stop!'"

"You still dare to say that?" A blush instantly spread across Yuhi Kurenai's face. She opened her pearly teeth and bit down on Chiya's hand, leaving a row of shallow teeth marks.

After a playful exchange, Kurenai Yuhi's expression suddenly turned serious, and she abruptly asked, "What brings you back to Konoha this time?"

"I have two purposes," Qianye replied. "The first is to come see you specifically, and the second I cannot say."

"Why?" A hint of resentment and bewilderment flashed across Kurenai's eyes.

"For Izumi, and also for you," Chiya said frankly, gently pulling Kurenai into his arms.

Kurenai Yuhi was suddenly startled. "Izumi is still alive?"

"Yes, on the night of the massacre, I specifically rescued her. Then I joined an organization that provided me with protection, and I worked for them." Qianye nodded.

"So, what brings you to Konoha this time?" Kurenai asked with some concern.

"Don't worry, even for your sake, I won't kill anyone in Konoha." Chiya shamelessly uttered the same words he had spoken to Tsunade that day, and then added, "Moreover, this mission to Konoha was actually initiated by me to the organization, mainly because I wanted to come and see you."

Hearing this, Kurenai Yuhi breathed a sigh of relief, a warm feeling washing over her, and continued, "So, how long will you be staying in Konoha this time?"

"Until the Chunin Exams are over, which means we have almost a month and a half to catch up," Chiya said with a smile.

"You rascal... This is bad." Kurenai Yuhi naturally knew what a month and a half meant, and her pretty face instantly turned red. Then, as if she had thought of something, she disregarded her shyness, hurriedly got up, walked to the wardrobe, rummaged around for a while, and put on her clothes under Chiya's gaze.

"What's the rush?" Qianye asked casually, her arms crossed behind her neck as she lay flat on the bed.

Kurenai Yuhi fastened her ninja headband. "Today is the Chunin Exams, and as the instructor for Team 8, I have to be there. You stay in your room. There's food in the fridge. Don't wander off before I get back."

After saying that, he hurriedly ran to the entrance, put on his ninja boots, and with a bang, stormed out of the room and disappeared.

"They really do deny it once they've put their pants on." Qianye pouted, got up, walked to the mirror, and put on her clothes.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have acquired Armament Haki.]

"Is this Armament Haki? I didn't expect that its hardness would surpass Kakuzu's Earth Spear on its first try, and it also consumes chakra. It seems that in order to balance the power system, the system has converted all reward consumables into chakra. However, it's more like taijutsu than ninjutsu. This level of chakra consumption is negligible to me."

Hearing the system notification in his mind, Qianye raised his right hand, looked at his right fist which was now completely covered in black, murmured a word, and disappeared from the room.

When Chiya rushed back to the inn, Yekura and Takako were already fully prepared and had been waiting for a long time.

However, compared to the energetic Yecang, Dai Xiaozi looked rather strange, appearing listless and with slightly dark circles under his eyes.

As Chiya changed into his Amegakure ninja attire, he asked, "Hey Itachi, you didn't spend all last night watching Sasuke, did you?"

"Let's hurry up and get going. I've been waiting for you for so long. In fifteen minutes, it will be the registration deadline." Uchiha Itachi snorted coldly and turned his head away with extreme arrogance.

"Tsk tsk. What an awkward guy." Chiya clicked his tongue lightly, then heard Yekura say from the side, "Speaking of which, Chiya-sama, what was it like when you first joined the Chunin?"

Chiya shook his head. "I didn't participate in the Chunin Exams. Back then, that old guy Third Hokage urgently needed to use me to achieve some goal, so he arranged for me to take the exam alone in advance and promoted me directly to Jonin. If it were the Chunin Exams, perhaps this filial son would know more about it, after all, he was the first person in Konoha to pass the Chunin Exams."

"Alright, let's get going." Itachi was worried that if Chiya continued talking, she would reveal some shocking information about Konoha. He left these words behind and walked out of the room with great impatience.

"What an oblivious guy," Ye Cang muttered, walking over to Qianye and straightening his clothes before the two of them followed closely behind.

Before long, the two followed the filial son to the registration location, which was also the examination venue for the first round of the Chunin Exams.

I happened to witness Rock Lee beating up Erzhuzi.

"Looks like your Sasuke failed at showing off and got beaten up again. Serves him right, I mean, acid rain." Qianye lazily leaned on the corridor railing, glanced at Sasuke who was being brutally beaten by Rock Lee, and then looked at Itachi Uchiha with interest.
