Obtained S-Rank Illusion Technique!

The next morning.

Xuandou slowly woke up, the first thing he felt being the warm, soft sensation in his arms and long hair draped over his arm.

Looking at Kurenai Yuhi, whose figure was graceful and alluring, everything that happened last night seemed to flash before his eyes:

Burning breaths, intertwined fingers, hurried gasps, and Kurenai Yuhi's red eyes, filled with passion and haze...

He swore that he absolutely had no intention of taking advantage of the situation!

He, Uchiha Xuandou, was a gentleman.

Even to complete the system mission, his original plan had been to pursue Kurenai Yuhi back in the village.

Who would have thought that the two of them would complete the dual cultivation directly during the mission!

Just as his thoughts were in turmoil, a system prompt sounded in his mind:

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing dual cultivation with a female ninja, mission accomplished!]

[Conducting aptitude assessment on the dual cultivation partner...]

[Assessment complete, dual cultivation partner: Kurenai Yuhi, comprehensive rating: S-rank!]

[Distributing mission rewards... More Children More Blessings module activated!]

Immediately after, Xuandou felt a new module called [More Children More Blessings] appear in his system.

The introduction to this module flooded into his mind:

1. As the host of the clan system, strengthening the clan is the top priority. The system will actively identify suitable females; please actively engage in dual cultivation with female ninjas of excellent aptitude to continue and optimize the clan's bloodline.

2. The aptitude of the dual cultivation partner will affect the quality of the rewards. The system will provide an objective rating and distribute a luxury treasure chest of the corresponding grade.

3. After successfully conceiving offspring, additional generous rewards will be granted.

Looking at the introduction of the [More Children More Blessings] module, Xuandou could barely suppress the corners of his mouth.

I am not a lecherous person, system, you... you have really made things difficult for me...

There is no other way; for the revival of the Uchiha clan, I can only suffer a little more.

With a flick of his mind, he opened the newly activated [More Children More Blessings] interface.

[Partner No. 1: Kurenai Yuhi]

[Aptitude Rating: S]

[Available for Collection: S-rank Clan Treasure Chest x1]

Without hesitation, Xuandou chose to collect it immediately.

[Ding! S-rank Clan Treasure Chest successfully collected. Open it?]

"Open."

[Treasure chest opened, rewards distributed.]

[Reward 1: Mastery of Yin-style Chakra Essence]

Following this, a cool sensation quickly flowed through Xuandou's entire body.

He sensed that a wisp of dark, agile, and elusive new energy had quietly sprouted within him.

Looking at the first reward, Xuandou was ecstatic.

One must know that chakra is essentially a combination of life and spiritual energy.

All ninjas are born with one or more of these attributes, which determines the ease with which they learn corresponding ninjutsu.

Of course, ninjas can also master other chakra attributes later in life.

But that requires long-term, focused, and high-intensity training to understand and simulate the chakra forms of other attributes, thereby mastering their nature transformation.

The chakra attributes Xuandou was born with were: Fire and Lightning.

Now, with the system reward distributed, a third type of chakra had been born within him: Yin.

Reading the newly acquired knowledge about Yin-style chakra in his mind, Xuandou immediately understood: the so-called Yin-style chakra is power involving the spiritual, imaginative, and soul levels.

Yin-style chakra cannot be directly used for attacks, but it is the root that supports genjutsu, certain secret techniques, soul power, and techniques that create physical forms.

The Uchiha clan's Sharingan contains Yin-style chakra.

It is just that this chakra only exists within the organ of the eyes, passed down through the bloodline, and is not directly mastered by Uchiha clansmen.

Xuandou couldn't help but sigh:

As expected of an S-rank reward...

[Reward 2: S-rank Ninjutsu Creation Card

Description: With this card, you can specify a direction for ninjutsu creation, and the system will generate the most suitable S-rank ninjutsu based on the host's current abilities, bloodline characteristics, and chakra attributes.]

Immediately after, a card with a pale golden luster appeared out of thin air in Xuandou's hand.

Creating ninjutsu, especially high-level ones, requires a deep understanding of chakra nature transformation and form transformation.

Xuandou certainly did not possess such an ability at the moment.

However, with this S-rank Ninjutsu Creation Card, he could directly create a ninjutsu that best suited him!

Xuandou did not hesitate.

"Use the S-rank Ninjutsu Creation Card immediately!"

[Ding! S-rank Ninjutsu Creation Card used successfully!]

[Please select the direction for the created ninjutsu:]

[1: Ninjutsu]

[2: Taijutsu]

[3: Genjutsu]

Xuandou pondered briefly and ultimately chose Genjutsu.

[Generating Genjutsu...]

[Detected that the host possesses the Sharingan and Yin-style chakra; merging characteristics...]

[Ding! Generation complete!]

[Jutsu Name: Yin Release: Heart-Diverging Door]

[Type: S-rank Genjutsu]

[Effect: Using specific hand seals combined with the Sharingan as a medium, utilize Yin-style chakra to open a portal to the target's mental world. The caster can weave complex illusions behind the door to spy on or disrupt the opponent's deep consciousness.]

It's done!

In an instant, everything regarding "Yin Release: Heart-Diverging Door," including the sequence of hand seals, the precise flow of chakra through the meridians, the method of focusing ocular power, and the key techniques for constructing and maintaining the illusion, was transmitted into Xuandou's mind.

"S-rank Genjutsu..."

Xuandou's heart surged with excitement.

Although ninjutsu ranks are not entirely equivalent to actual combat power, any jutsu involving the S-rank undoubtedly has an extremely high potential ceiling.

This would become a crucial trump card for him.

Just then, a soft sound came from beside him.

"Mmm~"

Kurenai Yuhi's eyelashes fluttered, and she slowly opened her eyes.

The moment she opened her eyes and saw Xuandou, she remembered that she was not wearing a single stitch of clothing.

She hurriedly scrambled to pick up the clothes scattered on the ground and put them on.

Recalling the wild actions between them last night, her face turned bright red with shame.

Especially since she had been the one to initiate it last night!

Thinking of how she had incessantly demanded more from Xuandou until the effects of the drug wore off, she didn't know how to face him.

Fortunately, Xuandou spoke up to break the awkwardness.

"I have already written the mission report. The intelligence regarding Sunagakure's plan to attack Konoha in two months is vital; we must return to the village as soon as possible to submit it."

"...Mn."

Kurenai lowered her head, her voice as faint as a mosquito's hum.

Afterward, Xuandou tidied up the chaotic ground, and only after confirming that no traces were left behind did he and Kurenai leave the cave together.

On the way back to Konoha, the two, who had gradually become familiar with each other, became somewhat awkward because of the madness of the previous night.

Their gazes occasionally met, only to quickly dart away, as if something invisible stood between them.

Xuandou could feel that Kurenai was deliberately avoiding communication.

She seemed unable to adjust to the sudden shift in their relationship.

However, he knew that some things could not be put off forever.

On the afternoon of the third day, the gates of Konoha and its surrounding walls came into view.

Just before stepping into the village, Xuandou stopped in his tracks.

He turned around and looked Kurenai straight in the face:

"Regarding last night, although it was an accident, I am by no means an irresponsible person. I will take responsibility for you."

"So, can we try to be together?"

"...Eh?"

Kurenai was completely stunned, her eyes widening slightly, as if she had not expected Xuandou to suddenly say such a thing at this moment.

Looking at Xuandou's earnest gaze, she parted her lips several times, her cheeks flushing crimson, yet she found herself unable to organize her thoughts.

"I... um..."

Observing her flustered state, Xuandou's tone grew even gentler.

"You don't have to answer right now. I know this is sudden; you need time to consider it."

"You expended a lot of energy on this mission, so go back and get some rest first. If you've made up your mind, you can come find me at the Uchiha Clan Grounds."

He gestured toward the village gates.

"I'll handle submitting the mission report to Lord Hokage."

With that, he didn't linger, turning and walking away with brisk strides.

Kurenai Yuhi stood rooted to the spot, watching Xuandou's tall, upright figure merge into the flow of people at the village entrance, remaining motionless for a long time.

Her heart hammered against her chest.

A faint, subtle sense of anticipation, one she hadn't even noticed herself, quietly sprouted in the depths of her heart.

Captain Xuandou is powerful and handsome, she thought to herself, he really is a reliable man...

Perhaps giving a relationship with him a try wouldn't be so bad...
