Chapter 254 Takehiko gives new mission (Ch 254)

Just as the figure of the Grim Reaper gradually faded and disappeared, Yue Yan suddenly thought of something and called him again.

“Wait, don’t digest those three souls, or I will chase you to the underworld and won’t let you go.”

Although the original novel does not say whether the Grim Reaper will digest the souls it swallows, Yue Yan still gave a warning just in case.

Listening to Yue Yan’s fierce words, the Grim Reaper nodded aggrievedly, and then his figure completely disappeared.

After watching the whole process, Orochimaru took off the Death Mask and handed it back to Yue Yan, and couldn’t help but sigh.

“The only one who can make the god of death so obedient is probably Yue Yanjun.” Orochimaru licked his lips with his long tongue. “I really want to study how you did it.”

“What? You want to throw me onto the dissection table?” Yue Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at Orochimaru.

Feeling his gaze, Orochimaru shrugged.

“It’s just the curiosity of a scientist. After all, it’s still very troublesome to deal with Yue Yanjun. It’s better to wait until you die and then study your body.”

Hearing this, Yue Yan chuckled.

“Sure, but I don’t know if you can live till I die.”

Hearing this, Orochimaru also smiled.

“Well, well, what I have the most is time. Since Yue Yanjun has agreed, you and I are looking forward to that day.”

After that, Orochimaru no longer mentioned this topic and said, “Before you asked me to teach that kid named Sasuke. I took a look at his talent and it is indeed not bad.”

As he spoke, there was an inexplicable light in Orochimaru’s eyes.

“I heard that Sasuke has a good relationship with Jiraiya’s new disciple. I really want to see who is better, him or Sasuke.”

Although Orochimaru is now obsessed with various experimental researches, due to his deep bond with Jiraiya, he doesn’t mind letting him take some time to compete with his once closest partner.

In response, Yue Yan shrugged indifferently.

“Just be happy, and don’t kill Sasuke.”

After saying that, Yue Yan left.

After Tsunade became the fifth Hokage, life became peaceful again.

Jiraiya took Naruto on a two-year journey, Sasuke went to Orochimaru to practice from time to time through the summoning snake, and Sakura was arranged by Tsunade to study in the Konoha Hospital under the guidance of Nohara Rin.

Basically, in the next two years, Team 7 led by Kakashi will be in name only.

When Kakashi got the news, he went straight to Yue Yan and started complaining. The once prosperous Team 7 was destroyed after the Chunin Exam. Yue Yan must give an explanation for this matter. Without two signed copies of the collector’s edition of “Intimate Paradise”, the matter would not be resolved.

In the end, under Kakashi’s persistent blocking of the door, Yue Yan had no choice but to give Kakashi the two copies of “Intimate Paradise” given to him by Jiraiya.

The days passed one by one, and one morning, Shisui, Itachi and Hayate found Yue Yan.

“Teacher, our class has a designated task.”

Hearing this, Yue Yan blinked in confusion.

In addition to normal acceptance, Konoha’s task system does have situations where the client specifies who to do the task. Yue Yan was not very surprised about this. What surprised Yue Yan was that someone actually wanted to entrust him with a task.

After understanding the situation, Yue Yan gave Shisui and Itachi a speechless look.

As mentioned before, Shisui and Itachi can now take on missions on their own and do not need Yue Yan to accompany them. Some time ago, they accepted a mission to escort a client to the Fire Capital.

The client of the mission was a large caravan, and with Shisui and Itachi’s abilities, although there were several attacks by bandits during the period, they were all easily resolved.

As we all know, the Uchiha clan is basically made up of handsome men and beautiful women, and the boss of this caravan also has a daughter.

As luck would have it, I took a liking to Shisui and Itachi, and this time I wanted to continue to entrust them with the escort mission.

However, this time the mission was to follow the caravan by boat to the Water Kingdom, and the two who did not want to travel so far wanted to refuse.

However, the daughter of the caravan owner used the method of raising the price and gave a price that neither Shisui nor Itachi could refuse.

Shisui and Itachi discussed that they couldn’t earn so much money by themselves, so they should at least bring their teammates along. Considering Yue Yan as their teacher, Shisui suggested directly entrusting their team with the task.

The caravan boss originally refused this idea. After all, letting his daughter so capriciously find two handsome men to be her bodyguards was already the limit.

When they heard that the caravan owner wanted to refuse, Shisui and Itachi looked at each other, showed him Yue Yan’s photo, and the next second the caravan owner agreed.

This is also the reason why Yue Yan rolled his eyes at Shisui and Itachi respectively.

Good guy, you two can use the teacher’s beauty to seduce the client.

As for Moonlight Gale…well, it’s just a side effect.

“I really don’t know what to say to you two. Just for a little money, you two can betray me. I am so heartbroken.”

Yue Yan covered his heart and pointed at Shisui and Itachi with a look of disappointment.

Hearing this, Shisui, knowing that what he did was indeed not right, scratched his head in embarrassment.

“This caravan is offering three million taels per person. We also want to take you along…”

“How many?”

Yue Yan interrupted Shisui before he could finish his words.

“Three million taels per person.”

“Well, well, well, you are indeed a good student of mine. You really think of me when you have good things to do.”

Looking at Yue Yan’s expression that changed instantly, Shisui opened his mouth, but didn’t know what to say for a moment.

There is no way. Three million taels is the reward for carrying out two S-level missions. It is just a simple escort mission. Even if you want to go abroad, it is no different from picking up money.

“When do we leave?”

Looking at Yue Yan’s impatient expression, Shisui smiled awkwardly.

“Tomorrow morning at eight.”

“Okay, I’ll take this task.”

After Shisui and the other two told Yue Yan the details of the mission, they left.

With Shisui and the other two here, Yue Yan doesn’t need to do anything for this mission. He can just lie back and get paid.

Suddenly remembering what Shisui said, three million taels per person, Yue Yan’s eyes lit up, and he went straight to find Xiaolan, planning to take her with him tomorrow.

Yue Yan has already thought it through. If any client refuses to pay because he sees Xiaolan is a summoned beast, Yue Yan will throw Xiaolan’s certificate of being a senior ninja in his face.

“We ordinary people are really happy today.”

At eight o’clock the next morning, Yue Yan and his companions met the client at the gate of Konoha.

The caravan was larger than expected, with all kinds of supplies filling the carriages. The caravan boss greeted Yue Yan and his party enthusiastically, especially when he saw Yue Yan himself, his eyes were full of surprise. His daughter hid behind him, secretly looking at the handsome Shisui, Itachi and Yue Yan, her face slightly flushed.

In response, Yue Yan showed a stiff smile, and kept thinking in his heart that the person opposite him was a sucker and he would not get angry with him.
