Children Shouldn't Be Too Curious

However, none of them noticed the cold glint that flashed in Shennong's eyes as he watched the departing man.

Then he went back to his laboratory.

However, in his laboratory, he discovered an uninvited guest.

"Doctor... Doctor, Kotaro... how... how did he die? What... what did you... do to him? Those... those corpses hanging on the walls... they must all be... bad people!"

A little girl looked at Shennong as he entered, leaned against the wall, and asked in a trembling voice, filled with fear.

A glimmer of hope still lingered in her eyes, "Dr. Shennong... he's definitely not... a bad person, right... right..."

The space behind the little girl was filled with various limbs soaking in a solution, as well as corpses and all sorts of gruesome skins and organs.

Upon hearing this, Shennong calmly replied, "I told you, don't just come in here!"

He leaned closer to the little girl, grinning and saying, "Since you've already seen it all, there's nothing I can do but tell you to shut up!"

"Dr. Shennong, I... I will... be very good... I... won't... say anything... please... don't kill me, I..."

Upon hearing this, the little girl, seeing the murderous intent emanating from Shennong's eyes, shrank into a ball in extreme fear and begged for mercy.

But before she could finish speaking, her head was pierced, and she lay limply down, still muttering, "I... won't... tell anyone, don't... kill me..."

Shennong stood up and muttered to himself, "Children, don't be so curious. Wouldn't it be better to just wait for me to summon you? Why did you have to choose death ahead of time!"

He continued his research, muttering to himself, "Ye Liangnai, I wonder how long it will take before we discover the anomaly here?"

"No, no, no, how could you have noticed anything amiss? I've managed this place so well, so harmoniously, even you, Ye Liangnai, couldn't possibly have noticed anything unusual!"

"Perhaps only when I leave will those in power notice something is wrong! Isn't that how they always are? They only start taking precautions after disaster strikes, and they never notice anything before it happens!"

At this point, his expression became agitated and ferocious.

"Ye Liangnai, your good days are coming to an end. Enjoy your last moments of prosperity! The glory of the Land of Water that you created will soon be mine!"

"You brat, do you even deserve to wield such great power in the Land of Water? You are not worthy! Only I am the ruler of the Land of Water, the ruler of the Shinobi World."

At this point, Shennong clenched his fist almost frantically and said, "Those useless parasites of the Five Great Nations and daimyo are just a waste of resources to live, but among the Five Kage, only Ye Liangnai dares to resist."

"You good-for-nothings' good days are over. You are not worthy of sitting in that position. Let the great Shennong rule the Shinobi World and create an unprecedented new era!"

"If it weren't for the struggle for resources between your Five Great Ninja Villages and the Five Great Nations, my hometown wouldn't have been affected and destroyed by war, my little sister wouldn't have been defiled, and my parents wouldn't have been slaughtered! You will pay the price for your actions."

No one knew what he was saying.

However, Shennong was unaware that Ye Liangnai's people had already arrived in the town where he was.

Suddenly, as if remembering something, Shennong said to a certain spot in the laboratory, "Go, kill that person who was shouting outside. The toxin I planted in his body should be ready by now, take it out!"

"Not only did it interfere with my experiments, but it also forced me to kill such a cute little girl. He deserves to die!"

Immediately, a ripple appeared in the shadows, and a creature that was neither human nor ghost disappeared from the laboratory.

On a small path in the town.

The man who had sought an explanation from Shennong was walking along this road. He said, "What bad luck! Are all the people in this town crazy? Shennong isn't a god, so why are you all so protective of him? Why don't you light some incense and worship him?"

"I had health problems after receiving treatment from him, so what's wrong with asking him for an explanation? Even if he's a miracle doctor, does that mean he can't make mistakes?"

He had barely said two sentences when he felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen, so painful that he immediately squatted down, cold sweat beading on his forehead.

However, when he stood up again after the pain subsided, he met a pair of scarlet eyes.

Before he could react, a sharp pain struck.

The man looked down and saw a sharp claw pierce his abdomen, pulling out a fat, black worm.

The moment the black worm left his body, he felt an unprecedented sense of relief.

However, the pain lasted less than two seconds before his vision blurred again, and he saw his body collapse.

The head was gone from the neck, and blood was gushing out!

"So I was beheaded! But I died without any explanation!"

The man thought this to himself, then closed his eyes weakly.

Before he lost consciousness, his last thought told him that his death was inextricably linked to Shennong.

The owner of these claws was a humanoid creature covered in hair, whose face was obscured.

He grabbed the man's head and then, in a bloody act, began to devour it, a truly chilling sight.

Not long after, the body was discovered, immediately causing a huge sensation.

There's no way it won't cause a sensation.

Who wouldn't be afraid, who wouldn't panic when a headless corpse suddenly appears?

The scene was immediately cordoned off, awaiting inspection by relevant personnel.

Of course, all of this had nothing to do with Shennong was engrossed in his experiments.

However, his peace was soon shattered!

This day!

"Excuse me, is this where Shennong, the doctor, lived?"

A young man suddenly appeared at the orphanage and asked a question.

"What brings you to see Doctor Shennong? Are you here for a medical consultation?" someone nearby noticed him and asked.

"Yes, that's right. My companion has contracted a terrible and strange illness, and he hasn't been able to get better no matter where he's been treated. I heard there's a miracle doctor here, so I've come to invite him to come and save him!" the young man replied quite politely.

"Haha, then you've come to the right place! With Shennong's skills, he'll definitely be able to cure your companion!"

"Please wait a moment, Doctor Shennong should be here soon. If there's any illness that can't be cured, just go to him!"

The person who answered the young man was an old man, smiling broadly, and speaking of Shennong with great pride.

Upon seeing this, a strange glint flashed in the young man's eyes, and then he waited.

Meanwhile, in the laboratory.

"Someone's looking for me? Who are they? How many people are there?"

Shennong looked at the person in front of him, who was completely hidden in black, and asked.

These are his capable subordinates from the Sky Ninja Village.
