In the blink of an eye, it was the afternoon of the next day.
Here, Qian was still cultivating.
Suddenly, a stretch of memories surfaced in his mind.
Qian immediately stopped cultivating.
The lightning around him faded, and with a few flickers, Qian returned to the huge rock at Central Island.
Sitting cross-legged, Qian began browsing through those memories.
As expected, those memories had come from the shadow clone responsible for pursuing the Rock Ninja.
From these memories, Qian learned that not long after the Rock Ninja fled, the Leaf teams responsible for support had arrived one after another.
After that, the two sides cooperated and launched a pursuit of the Rock Ninja.
And after a full day and night of encirclement and interception, the vast majority of the Rock Ninja who had scattered and fled had already been captured or killed.
In the end, only a few escaped the pursuit and vanished without a trace.
However, there was no need to trouble Qian with that any further.
And his mission ended here as well.
Afterward, the shadow clone returned to the frontline Camp.
Just now, it had undone the Shadow Clone Technique in the frontline Camp and transmitted the relevant memories to him.
After browsing through the shadow clone's memories, Qian fell into thought.
On the surface, this mission could be considered over.
But he knew this was not truly the end.
Once those four Leaf Anbu returned to the village, or once the captured Rock Ninja opened their mouths, the village would sooner or later notice the suspicious points about him.
When that time came, trouble would definitely follow.
But it was still the same old saying: as long as there was no evidence, everything was negotiable.
So next, all he had to do was cultivate in peace.
