Shennong's Trail
"Well, speechless now!"
Seeing the two of them like this, one of the people sitting next to them continued to add insult to injury.
"Bill, please!"
The two young men slammed their fists on the table in anger, paid the bill, and left.
"Well done!"
People around cheered, their faces full of admiration.
"You flatter me! You flatter me!"
Upon hearing this, the three people sitting next to him immediately became quite humble.
"We still have to thank Ye Liangnai. Without him, we wouldn't have achieved what we have today. Long live Ye Liangnai!"
One of them raised his hand excitedly and shouted.
"Ye Liangnai!"
"Long live!"
Instantly, the entire store was filled with shouts of response, the sound so loud that everyone's ears were ringing.
Ye Liangnai felt ashamed upon hearing this, and couldn't help but smile bitterly to herself.
When did Kirigakure start developing a personality cult? This is not a good sign and should be taken seriously!
"Hey, why aren't you shouting? Do you have some kind of grudge against Ye Liangnai?"
Just then, a dissatisfied voice rang out in front of Ye Liangnai.
Ye Liangnai couldn't help but look up, only to see a Ye Liangnai man staring at her with an unfriendly expression, speaking in a deep voice.
Immediately, many people around turned their gazes toward him, and their gazes were equally hostile.
His gaze clearly told Ye Liangnai that if he said anything wrong today, these people would attack him en masse!
"Long live Ye Liangnai!"
Helpless, Ye Liangnai could only suppress her strange feelings and force herself to speak.
I must say, Ye Liangnai's acting skills are absolutely excellent.
Even if he felt extremely uncomfortable inside, his expression made him look like a crazy fanboy, as genuine as could be!
"That's more like it!"
Seeing Ye Liangnai like this, the big man sat back down.
Well, that's one of the people next door to Ye Liangnai.
"Looks like we'll have to really manage this when we get back; this kind of trend is unacceptable!"
It's only just begun, and there are already signs of factionalism and suppression, with an element of coercion.
What will happen if things develop like this? It will definitely get out of his control!
This kind of thing happened in his previous life in ancient times, and it was definitely a catastrophe.
Ye Liangnai absolutely will not allow this to happen.
Otherwise, such an event would surely destroy the Kirigakure, which had worked so hard to develop.
"Well, I've heard that there's a divine doctor in the Land of Water who can save lives and cure any kind of difficult or complicated illness."
"Who do you think is more skilled, him or the people in the Kirigakure's Medical Department?"
At this point, someone brought up a new topic, mentioning a doctor named 'Shennong'.
"You're talking about Shennong, right? I've met him. He's a kind and benevolent living deity. I think his skills are probably superior!"
"Shennong, who is that? I've never heard of him!"
Immediately, this topic aroused the interest of the surrounding crowd, and a group of people were drawn over and began to discuss it.
But they didn't notice that Ye Liangnai's brows suddenly furrowed after hearing the name Shennong.
"This guy actually Land of Water? He really did it without a sound!"
"In that case, I won't allow you to pull any tricks under my nose!"
After finishing the food on the table, Ye Liangnai paid the bill and left.
Upon returning to the Anbu, they immediately dispatched relevant personnel to investigate matters related to Shennong.
However, a report from an Anbu caught his attention.
This Anbu said that he was originally just following Ye Liangnai's orders to monitor the rebels in the Land of Water.
Because these people are well hidden and scattered, they are difficult to monitor and require careful observation.
Unexpectedly, they discovered that a man named 'Shennong' was colluding with a rebellious force.
With Shennong's help, this force is rapidly becoming the largest, possessing considerable strength.
If this continues, it could easily get out of control.
This force and Shennong are carrying out an extraordinary operation.
According to an undercover agent within the organization, if this research is successful, it will possess the power to overturn the Shinobi World.
"Sir, forgive my bluntness, but after half a year of planning, it's time for you to wrap things up!" the Anbu mustered his courage and suggested.
"Shennong..."
Ye Liangnai narrowed her eyes slightly, a sharp glint in them.
He waved for the member of the Anbu to leave, then looked at the report scroll submitted by the Anbu and muttered, "Is this God reminding me that it's time to take action against you?"
In fact, he had been paying attention to Shennong for a long time, ever since his failed attack Shennong Konoha.
However, due to staff shortages at the time, no tracking action was taken against them.
Unexpectedly, Shennong arrived at Kirigakure so early and even colluded with the rebel forces.
If Ye Liangnai hadn't heard his name at the yakiniku restaurant today, she would have almost forgotten it.
"Fine, since even God has warned me to watch out for you, and you've gone and courted disaster, then don't blame me!"
He would never allow anyone to wreak havoc on the Land of Water.
He went to the Mizukage's Office and reported to Mei Terumi about the emerging personality cult.
They also analyzed its harmfulness in detail and instructed Mei Terumi to take control of it to prevent it from causing even greater trouble.
"Isn't this all because you're so amazing? The people see you as their savior!"
"However, the fact that the Medical Department actually won the runner-up position in the competition was quite unexpected."
"I thought it would be good enough if they didn't come in last place, but I didn't expect them to achieve such good results!"
Mei Terumi looked at Ye Liangnai with admiration and said, "The Medical Department all say it's all thanks to you!"
"If it weren't for the Poison Arts Compendium you provided that greatly benefited them and improved their skills, they would never have achieved such excellent results!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Liangnai looked as if she had expected it.
He said, "That's true. I've put so much effort into allocating resources to them. If they still come in last, I'll really have to question their competence!"
"It's time to expand our staff a bit. The people in the Medical Department are always complaining to me about not having enough people, so now I'll satisfy them! Sis, you can start preparing the relevant funds!"
He was not surprised that the medical-nin of Kirigakure could achieve such good results.
After all, he had spent most of his Enhancement Points on them over the past six months.
If they still can't achieve outstanding results under these circumstances, then he'll really start to question the meaning of life.
Hearing Ye Liangnai's words, Mei Terumi smiled and said, "People outside often say that Kirigakure has two Mizukage."
"One is me, the Mizukage in the open, and the other is you, the Shadow who controls the hidden forces of Kirigakure."
"Seeing it today, it's indeed true. Under your governance, Kirigakure has truly undergone many remarkable changes!"
