When the appointed time arrived, Lao Zi followed Nagato towards the Ninja Sect's reception room.

At this moment, Lao Zi was both excited and anxious, and his mood was a bit complicated.

The long-awaited meeting is finally here, and Lao Zi can't help but be excited about it, but Lao Zi also has concerns. He is not the kind of person who can talk. He is not sure whether he can express his thoughts well and not be indifferent.

There is a conflict in You Jie.

Lao Zi always complained about Ohnoki in his heart. In fact, he knew that his temper was not good either, and was not much better than Ohnoki's.

After walking into the Ninja sect living room, Lao Zi found that Soyousuke had arrived and was sitting on a chair drinking tea.

"Teacher, we're here." Nagato walked to Muyue and said.

Mu Yue smiled and nodded to Nagato, then looked at Lao Zi.

Lao Zi also looked at Soyousuke. This was not the first time he saw Soyousuke, but it was the first time he saw Soyousuke at such a close distance.

There is not much difference between Soyousuke outside class and during lectures. He is still dressed in white and often shows a gentle smile.

The long-awaited meeting finally began, but Lao Zi didn't know what to say for a while.

He wanted to say a lot, but he couldn't think of the best words or the order in which to say them.

Lao Zi was a little anxious, he could only start this conversation first, because he knew Sosuke, but Sosuke didn't know him, not even his name.

"Have you finished reading the book? Which chapter left the deepest impression?" Mu Yue was the first to break the silence.

When she first learned that Lao Zi wanted to see him, Mu Yue didn't know Lao Zi's purpose and thoughts.

Later, Mu Yue investigated the villages on the northern border of the Kingdom of Rain and learned about some of Lao Zi's actions in the Kingdom of Rain. Based on some information exposed in the original work, he made some guesses.

"Book." Lao Zi was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly understood what book Soyousuke was talking about.

"After reading it, the chapter that impressed me the most is probably the world after the ultimate goal is achieved, a world where there is no discrimination, no war, and everyone is equal." Lao Zi replied, recalling the content of the book.

This is probably the most beautiful fairy tale Lao Zi has ever seen.

He can only use fairy tales to describe this ultimate goal. Not to mention war, even the elimination of discrimination is a far-fetched thing.

Because Lao Zi has been discriminated against since he was a Jinchuriki since he was a child, he knows how difficult it is to eliminate discrimination.

He is so powerful and has completed so many tasks for Iwagakure that the villagers should still discriminate against him.

"Do you think this goal is illusory and impossible to achieve?" Mu Yue seemed to see through what Lao Zi was thinking.

"That's right." Lao Zi nodded honestly.

In his opinion, this is a beautiful fantasy that cannot be fulfilled.

Great beings like the Immortal of Six Paths, who were passed down as creation gods in later generations, can only maintain a short-term peace. Is it really possible for war to disappear?

"You should know about walkie-talkies and televisions, right?" Mu Yue asked with a smile without continuing to talk about the ultimate goal.

"I know." Lao Zi felt a little strange in his heart, why did he talk about these two unrelated things.

"If you were a ninja from a thousand years ago, no, five hundred years ago, can you believe that there will be iron boxes that can communicate over long distances without chakra?"

Lao Zi fell into deep thought. Although walkie-talkies and televisions were not uncommon in his world, when Sosuke said this, Lao Zi discovered that this was indeed the case.

If he didn't know about the existence of walkie-talkies in the first place, he would definitely think that such a product could not exist.

"The development of things is always in an upward spiral. Just because it hasn't happened before, doesn't mean it won't be possible in the future," Mu Yue continued.

"Precisely because it is far away, that is the ultimate goal."

Mu Yue never thought that the ninja sect would achieve that ultimate goal in his own hands. If he could lead the ninja sect to make the ninja world a little better and look like the country in his previous life, that would be enough.

"It's so similar. The Sage of Six Paths also wants to create a world where there is no war and everyone can coexist peacefully." Siwei sighed.

Looking at Soyousuke, who was dressed in white and explained the ultimate goal of the ninja sect, the four tails recalled the Hagoromo who told their nine tailed beasts about their ideals.

Thousands of years ago, Hagoromo founded the Ninja sect and taught them to get along with humans and talk about peace.

Thousands of years later, Sosuke founded the Ninja sect and described the goal of a peaceful world in front of him.

That is to say, it is Nagato who has the Reincarnation Eye and not Soyousuke, otherwise the Four Tails would think that Soyousuke is the reincarnation of the Sage of Six Paths.

They have done similar things, have similar ideals, like wearing white clothes, and have the samsara eye, so the elements are really complete.

Lao Zi was convinced, and he felt that Soyousuke's words made sense.

Of course, it's also possible that he convinced himself.

Because the world described by the Ninja Sect's ultimate goal is truly a world that Lao Zi could not even dream of.

The most he dared to dream about was that he could be treated as an ordinary person, and he never dreamed that the war would disappear.

Who would not want him to realize such a beautiful and peaceful world? Lao Zi thinks that no one should.

"We've been chatting for so long, but I didn't say my name. It's really rude." Lao Zi stood up and bowed slightly to express his apology to Soyousuke.

Since the Ninja clan cooperated with Iwagakure, Lao Zi was worried about exposing his identity and being betrayed, so he did not show his true appearance and identity to Soyousuke and the Ninja clan.

Now Lao Zi feels that his behavior is disrespectful to Sosuke.

Lao Zi released his transformation technique, revealed his true appearance, and then introduced himself in a deep voice: "My name is Lao Zi."

After saying that, Lao Zi fell into silence, preparing to receive Soyousuke's surprise and questions.

After all, he is a jinchūriki, the most terrifying weapon of mass destruction in the ninja world. He suddenly came to Ninja Sect Six Paths Castle incognito, and Soyousuke couldn't question him too much.

"Yeah." Mu Yue smiled and nodded.

Lao Zi looked at Mu Yue with a puzzled expression. He didn't understand why Mu Yue's reaction was so dull. The image of the person he was talking to suddenly changed drastically, and he turned into a terrifying existence like a Jinchūriki. Shouldn't his face be full of shock?

Out of the corner of his eye, Lao Zi noticed that Nagato also had a calm face and was even more confused. Soyousuke could also explain how Nagato, an underage ninja, could be so calm by saying that he had seen strong winds and waves.

Although Lao Zi revealed his identity not to show off and watch Soyousuke and Nagato be shocked, but the performance of the two gave Lao Zi a confidence to show off his strength, but in the end he only received a so-so evaluation.

It was so embarrassing, so embarrassing that Lao Zi was so embarrassed that she forgot to sit down.

He really wants others to treat him like an ordinary person, but this is not the case.

"I am the Four-Tails..." Lao Zi felt that maybe Soyousuke didn't think of his identity for a while.

"I know, the four-tailed Jinchūriki of Iwagakure Village."

Lao Zi looked at Soyousuke in surprise and confusion. Since Soyousuke knew his identity, why could he be so calm?

Aren't you afraid of some conspiracy in Iwagakure Village? For example, if you take out a kunai and throw it to the ground, five hundred elite Iwagakure will appear.

"Have you known my identity for a long time?" Lao Zi thought of something and couldn't help but ask.

If Soyousuke had known his identity, then Soyousuke and Nagato's reactions would make sense.

"I knew it when I learned that you wanted to see me." Mu Yue answered truthfully.

Mu Yue knew that pretending not to know Lao Zi's identity would make Lao Zi favor him more, but this was not necessary.

Lao Zi looked at Mu Yue in shock, not expecting that his identity would be exposed so quickly.

Even Iwagakure from the Five Great Ninja Villages couldn't find him. How did Soyousuke determine his identity? Obviously, the two of them had never met before.

Moreover, since Soyousuke knew his identity, why didn't he contact Iwagakure to inquire about the situation?

After all, he is a Jinchuuriki. If a Jinchuuriki appears inexplicably in his country, he should not be indifferent.

"The four-tailed jinchuriki of Iwagakure Village is history, and I am no longer an Iwagakure ninja." Lao Zi thought for a while and said.

Since you want to reveal your identity, then do it thoroughly.

Lao Zi's words made Nagato's expression change slightly.

He was able to remain calm before because Mu Yue revealed Lao Zi's identity before sending him to call Lao Zi, but Mu Yue did not say that Lao Zi had become a traitor.

Ninjas have a saying of retirement, but retired Iwagakure ninjas are still considered Iwagakure ninjas, and Lao Zike is far from the age of retirement, so they can only be rebellious ninjas.

An ordinary rebellious ninja, Nagato, doesn't care, but if a Jinchūriki rebels against a ninja, that would be a big deal. Nagato, who was taught by Mu Yue, knows the meaning of this.

Nagato quickly looked at Mu Yue, and saw that Mu Yue's expression did not change at all, and instantly felt relieved.

"I understand." Mu Yue nodded and looked at Lao Zi quietly.

Lao Zi:......

"Is it possible that you still know why I left Iwagakure Village?" Soyousuke's calmness made Lao Zi feel numb.

Mu Yue shook her head. He only knew that Lao Zi's departure from the village was related to the defeat. There must be many things he didn't know about it.

Lao Zi breathed a sigh of relief, there was finally something Soyousuke didn't know about.

But then Lao Zi didn’t know what to say.

The unfolding of this meeting was something Lao Zi had never imagined. Not only did Soyousuke know his identity, but he also knew it so early.

This caused Lao Zi to have many confusing thoughts in his heart, which he couldn't sort out for a while.

"That's it for today. If you have any doubts about the contents of the book about the Ninja Sect, you can come to see me at the Ninja Sect. I will have a less busy period of time next." Mu Yue said after seeing Lao Zi's silence.

.

He could sense that Lao Zi was interested in the Ninja Sect. If Mu Yue tried his best to recruit, Lao Zi would most likely choose to join the Ninja Sect.

The Ninja Sect is too lethal to people like Lao Zi who had a tragic childhood.
