After leaving Konoha, Li Yaoxiang and Uchiha Itachi walked side by side on the dirt road together.

There is a jungle on both sides of the dirt road.

Naruto World's roads are terrible. As one of the richest Five Great Countries, Land-of-Fire, they don't have much idea about road construction. However, from Konoha Village until Li Yaoxiang's destination this time, the journey is said to be not long and not short.

Naruto World doesn't have cars, and they don't have rental horses. So it is estimated that this section of the road will not go too well.

It takes at least a half-day walk to arrive.

Uchiha Itachi was already used to it like nothing. But Li Yaoxiang, a modern world person, doesn't have such good footwork. So almost every hour he walked, he needed to stop and rest for a while.

At this time, they just stopped on the road to rest.

Li Yaoxiang sat on the boulder, patting his calf muscles, full of apologies: "Sorry, I'm stopping you to wait for me. I've never been outside of Konoha before. This is my first time walking a long road. Knowing this is the case, I should have rented a carriage and hurried away."

Li Yaoxiang was still the same. Dressed up as an ordinary commoner. But he was so tired that he had to stop and take a rest, which was not fake.

Uchiha Itachi maintained a shy smile: "It's okay. It's more convenient for me to protect you. If you get on the carriage, it might not be so convenient."

In order to satisfy Big Brother Shisui. Along the way, Uchiha Itachi made great efforts to show his friendly side.

Anyway, Li Yaoxiang was now a customer of Konoha. If Konoha Ninja's reputation is damaged because of his bad attitude, this is not what he wants to see.

In this way, the two guys who hide their true colors have a little talk about some irrelevant topics in the journey.

Chatting and chatting.

Uchiha Itachi, who couldn't find a new topic, suddenly came to this sentence: "That's right. Is Konoha bad? Why did you leave Konoha?" "Ahh~"

Li Yaoxiang sighed and talked about his 'parents' immediately. Then, he said he wanted to leave this sad place, go out, and take a look.

This was also the first time Uchiha Itachi talked with Konoha civilians, and the conversation was so in-depth. If Li Yaoxiang hadn't said anything, he really wouldn't realize that the commoners of Konoha, even just living in the village normally, was such a dangerous thing.

After hearing this, he couldn't help but be stunned. He felt a bit confused inside. It turns out that the village is not a paradise for ordinary people. He became quiet for a long time.

Uchiha Itachi involuntarily spoke: "What is the meaning of life?"

This sentence surprised Li Yaoxiang. He didn't expect Uchiha Itachi would ask him such a question at such a time and place. If Li Yaoxiang remembers correctly, Uchiha Itachi asks this question to several people in the original work; Uchiha Shisui, Kakashi, Orochimaru, etc.

The answer they gave will also be one of the main reasons for changing Uchiha Itachi's final decision on which side to stand. In other words, if Li Yaoxiang wants to change the fate of Uchiha's clan, he might be able to start from this aspect now.

He could try to shake Uchiha Itachi's future decisions. However, Li Yaoxiang quickly rejected this idea. Because in his plan, if Uchiha Clan was destroyed, it would be a rare incident that could help to darken Naruto.

He wouldn't change this ending because of his soft heart.

"Haha! If you suddenly asked me such an esoteric question, I won't know how to answer you." Li Yaoxiang turned his head around and unloaded the topic with embarrassment.

Uchiha Itachi was also awakened by Li Yaoxiang's response. He never expected Li Yaoxiang to answer his question. After all, Li Yaoxiang is only an ordinary person in his mind. How can he understand the difficulty of ninjas? How is it possible to give an answer?

The reason why he said this question was just that after listening to Li Yaoxiang's story, he felt emotional for a while, and it just kind of happened. It was purely self-talk.

"It's fine! It's getting late. Let's go on the road." Uchiha Itachi laughed.

"Oh, oh! Okay, okay. I have enough rest. Let's go."

Just as the two were about to leave, Uchiha Itachi suddenly stopped Li Yaoxiang behind him and shouted violently in the direction of the northwest: "Who is it?! Come out!" With that said, Uchiha Itachi took two Kunai from his pocket and threw them towards the northwest.

DING! DING!

The Kunai suddenly bounced off.

Immediately afterward, two masked ninjas came out from the shadows of the jungle: "As expected of the new generation of genius from the Uchiha clan, you discovered us so soon."

Uchiha Itachi's expression condensed: "The Root...? What do you mean?"

"It's nothing. You give us the spy behind you, and your mission will be completed. You can go back and report it. There is nothing for you here." One of the root ninjas said in a tone that could not be denied.

The most intense reaction was Li Yaoxiang standing behind Uchiha Itachi. He was frightened and sat down on the ground. His face was pale: "No, no no! Lord-Ninja, is there any misunderstanding? How could I be a spy? I was born and raised in Konoha, and I've never been out of the village. I also got Lord-Hokage's approval before leaving the village!

Of course, this was just a play performed by Li Yaoxiang.

To avoid a wave of chasers in the future, which will disturb his life, he will not reveal his identity unless he is forced to do so. And he also took advantage of this opportunity to see if he could test out if there was any Jonin following Uchiha Itachi.

In case he guessed wrong and his life was threatened, isn't there still a batch of darkening points that haven't been used yet?

Seeing Li Yaoxiang's reaction, the two Root ninjas in front could not help but laugh.

Seeing this, Uchiha Itachi believed that Li Yaoxiang was just an ordinary person who was wronged. He posed in a fighting pose. Then, he turned on his Sharingan.

He took out the short blade that was equipped behind him and held it in front of him with a backhand grip and said with a serious expression: "You two are joking. I don't think my client is a spy. Both of you please go back."

"Sure enough Uchiha Clan's people are really stubborn." One of them sighed with emotion.

The two Root ninjas suddenly disappeared in place!

Immediately afterward, Li Yaoxiang's ears heard the sound of 'ding ding dong dong' constant weapons collision.

The action of double-playing fighting, as an ordinary person, he couldn't see clearly at all.

During the fight, Uchiha Itachi even slammed: "Get away from here!"
