Although the Hatake Clan that Hatake Yuiga belonged to had now fallen from grace, it had once been one of Konoha's Four Great Clans. A starving camel was still bigger than a horse. It was only natural for the Hyuga Clan to believe that the Hatake Clan might one day have a chance to return to Konoha's stage. They had tried to use Mao Yihua's relationship with Hatake Yuiga to probe into the Hatake Clan's current situation, but it seemed the Hyuga Clan had not succeeded. Even if the Hatake Clan truly had some plans ahead, Hatake Yuiga probably would not have known about them.
Mao Yihua suddenly let out a breath. "Li, I think you need to speed things up from here on. The elders in the clan are all coveting my body. They know my talent, so they're all fighting to have me breed with their descendants. Of course, the condition they offered is that I would officially become part of the main family. But I don't want to marry those pieces of trash."
"That is a troublesome matter too. I really don't know much about this sort of thing." Li rubbed his nose. "Oh, right, Orochimaru might have done some research in this area. Why don't I try my luck with him?"
Mao Zhihua's eyes lit up when she heard that. "Yes. If it's Orochimaru, he might really know something about the Hyuga Clan."
"Mm. All we can do next is take things one step at a time. The clan has transferred me back now. The Guard Force is an easy posting, and judging by their intentions, they'll probably have me stand guard at the gate." Li sighed softly. "I can't go out on missions, but at least I'll have plenty of time to do other things."
