"Hey, you're dreaming." Yang Xing almost laughed out loud, but his smile was truly cold, "I'll help you release the Tailed Beast, and then I'll take the blame for you. And then I'll even get chased by the Tsuchikage for you. Who are you to me? Why should I help you like this?"

"Yeah, Master, you've been so good to this guy, and he's still not satisfied." Not to mention Yang Xing, even Guren was a little annoyed. "In the entire ninja country, there are only a few who can completely make you lose control of your Tailed Beast. Even the old Tsuchikage couldn't do it, right? Master is willing to help you, and you still want Master to take the blame? Even I can't forgive you."

Guren was indeed very angry. This person was utterly disgusting, trying to profit from both sides. There's no such thing as a free lunch. If the world were so wonderful, her hometown wouldn't have been destroyed.

"Master, don't help this guy." Seeing the Guren hesitate, Honglian's Jinchūriki turned cold. "We'll only get implicated if we do this, and his life or death has nothing to do with you. Let's just forget about it."

"No, no, I promise you, I promise you, I'll write it, I'll write it right now." Fan knew that only Yang Xing could help him now; he was the only person who could offer him relief after all these years.

The only hope, one that will never come again.

He could leave Iwagakure, but if the Tailed Beast weren't eliminated, he had nowhere to go.

Fan frantically started looking for paper.

Guren frowned, her expression displeased. "Hey, if even Master doesn't want to help you, what's the point of you writing this?"

"Well, Guren, helping him this once is no big deal."

"Master." Guren frowned slightly and couldn't help but bite her lip. "Why is Master so kind to you? In this country, no one would do such a thankless task."

"No, I had my reasons for agreeing to his request."

Guren wasn't a fool. Having followed Orochimaru for so many days, she understood what Yang Xing wanted. But the more she understood, the more she felt that Yang Xing was indeed a relatively kind-hearted person.

"No, no, that's not right. Anyway, Master wouldn't be a bad person. I trust Master."

Yang Xing's goal is simple: everyone is prone to hesitation and indecisiveness. The stronger and more responsible a person is, the more they hesitate. Even if he offers good terms and a chance to get a piece of the pie, these people will still hesitate.

Since the Tsuchikage was still hesitant, it only made him understand what reality was.

Similarly, Guren understood this very well. She also understood that if it were Orochimaru, he would have been even more ruthless, and Yang Xing's decision not to go too far was indeed considered merciful.

In less than five minutes, Fan finished writing the blood letter.

That determination was clearly a long-held wish. The book was written quite neatly, with tidy handwriting. If you showed it to the old Tsuchikage, he would surely understand whether the book was written by the person who was the Five-Tails Jinchuriki himself.

After all, no one can imitate handwriting or bloodstains.

After a quick glance and finding the contents correct, Yang Xing handed the blood-written letter to Guren.

Yang Xing stood up, his expression calm. "Come with me outside. This place isn't suitable. Let's go outside the village, preferably ten miles away."

"Yes, I'll go now." Fan stood up, intending to leave, but noticed Yang Xing hadn't moved. "Lord Yang Xing?"

"I need to take care of something, I'll be right there."

"Hi." Fan nodded, turned and left, his steps light and easy.

"Master, do you really want to help him untie the Tailed Beast?"

"Yes, I promised him." "Guren, I have two things for you."

"My master said that even if he ordered me to die right now, I wouldn't even flinch."

Guren's heart was burning with passion; she was willing to give her life for Yang Xing, and she wasn't joking.

"Haha, why would I want you to die? Don't think like that. You won't die until I die."

"Mmm." Guren's little face was flushed, and she enjoyed Yang Xing's caress. This was something Orochimaru couldn't give her, and it was also something that could make her completely forget about Orochimaru.

"Alright, remember that. The tasks are simple." Yang Xing's expression changed, and he said seriously, "First, inform Konan and Tsunade to prepare. This village is about to face a great calamity. Tell them to pack their belongings and avoid being affected."

"I understand, I will definitely tell them."

"The second thing is to have Tsunade send a message to the Tsuchikage, telling him that the Five-Tails Jinchuriki has come to find me, and that I have agreed to release the Tailed Beast."

"Yes, I understand. Um, Master, you really don't need my help?"

"Fool, that kind of thing is too dangerous. How could I let you do something so dangerous?"

"My master has been too good to me." After saying this, Guren lowered her head, her face somewhat gloomy.

Being protected by Yang Xing is very comforting, but not being able to help Yang Xing is indeed a bit of a regret for Guren.

"Be a good girl and do what I tell you to do. Those two things are very important." After kissing the girl's forehead, Yang Xing set off quickly, leaping up at the door and disappearing like a ray of light between the rooftops.

Guren touched her forehead, then looked up, a smile lingering on her lips.

The Land of Earth, ten miles away.

When Yang Xing arrived, he immediately saw Fan, who was already standing there.

Upon seeing Yang Xing's arrival, he excitedly rushed forward. "Lord Yang Xing, is everything ready?"

Fan looked around Yang Xing and, seeing nothing else, remained puzzled.

"Hmm." As if sensing his confusion, Yang Xing explained calmly, "To release your Tailed Beast, you don't need any tools, just my Dōjutsu."

"I understand, I trust Lord Yang Xing." Fan was willing to take the gamble, very willing to take it.

If he succeeds, he will be free from his current predicament and will no longer have anything to do with the Tailed Beast. This has been his wish for more than 20 years.

"Ready?" With a jolt, Yang Xing activated his Mangekyō.

Fan nodded, but as soon as he looked up, he found that the scene before him had changed.

It was pitch black all around.

The whole world was pitch black, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.

"Here?" Fan looked around, his expression quite strange.

"The place where the Tailed Beast is sealed in your body." "You've been with the Tailed Beast for twenty years, almost becoming one with it. Your Chakra is connected. To sever this Chakra connection, you must do it here."

"Really?" Fan's pupils trembled, and he sensed something. He turned his head and immediately saw the Tailed Beast chained up.

The white, horse-like creature was enormous, with all four legs bound by heavy iron chains. Its Five-Tails raised their heads and stared directly at him, causing him to shudder and fall to the ground in shock.

"Hey, don't tell me you've never seen this before," Yang Xing's voice rang out at the same time. "You two have been together for years, after all."
