Chapter 291 What did you do to Sister Honglian?
Chapter 291 What did you do to Sister Honglian?
Honglian's question completely stumped Ye Yu.
Honglian was also stunned after asking the question.
From what standpoint did she ask Yoru this question?
In an instant, her face flushed red again.
He lowered his head, at a loss.
But what surprised Ye Yu was not that, but that Hong Lian actually thought Bai was a woman.
Thinking of Bai's appearance, he nodded. "Yeah, that guy is indeed getting prettier and prettier. I mean, he's getting prettier and prettier. It's really easy to mistake him for someone else."
"I wonder what the people in his village think of him. Do they all think he's a girl?"
"Given his fair appearance and personality, anyone who doesn't truly know him would definitely mistake him for a woman, or rather, a stunningly beautiful one. I can't imagine what the men who fantasize about him would think if they knew their dream girl was actually a man."
Ye Yu felt a chill run down her spine just thinking about it.
What's even more terrifying is that some people, even knowing he's a man, still go ahead and challenge him; that's the real horror.
Just as Honglian lowered her head, waiting for Ye Yu to mock her, Ye Yu said, "Who told you he was a girl?"
Honglian was stunned for a moment, completely failing to understand what Yeyu meant.
She looked up at Ye Yu.
Yoru patiently explained to her, "That ninja was a Jonin from Kirigakure. He wasn't a girl, but a boy."
"It's just that he looks too feminine, but his appearance can indeed be misleading."
"Didn't I just say something like, 'Why are all the people from the Land of Water like this? They're all so feminine?' I was talking about him."
"You're a woman and you didn't even recognize me? Hahaha!"
Ye Yu laughed loudly after he finished speaking.
Honglian did indeed recall what Yeyu had just said, and realized that what Yeyu said might be true. Honglian blushed deeply with embarrassment.
"Then why didn't you explain clearly just now, you bastard? You were just deliberately trying to make me look bad, you bastard."
Honglian punched Yeyu several times, but Yeyu did not defend himself at all, and just thought Honglian was ridiculous.
After Honglian finished fighting, Ye Yu laughed and said, "How was it? That guy is pretty, isn't he? Does he look like a girl, just like this kid? No, many girls aren't as pretty as them."
Honglian glanced at Yukimaru, who was standing to the side looking at her and Yeyu with a puzzled expression.
It was a little awkward.
She had already come to agree with Ye Yu's words; he did indeed look very much like a girl.
She hadn't noticed this at all before.
Honglian raised her head and looked at Yeyu. "You're a Konoha ninja, a Jonin?"
Ye Yu nodded. "What's wrong?"
"Why do you know so much about Lord Orochimaru? Is it just because you both come from Konoha?" Guren asked.
Ye Yu explained, "That's part of the reason. Another part is because I understand what kind of person he is. He's very good at bewitching people, but he usually only bewitches people with some personality flaws. He can't bewitch normal people at all, so he basically won't accept anyone who's even remotely normal."
As soon as Ye Yu finished speaking, Hong Lian rolled her eyes at him.
"Are you saying I have a personality flaw?"
Ye Yu looked at Hong Lian, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "It is a bit. Think about it, normal people can't understand why you always want to become his reincarnation."
"There must be something about him that you want, right? I'm guessing it's that you've always lacked recognition from others since you were little, and you really want his recognition, right? And coincidentally, he's the one who saved you, isn't he?"
Upon hearing Ye Yu's words, Hong Lian trembled.
That was indeed her experience before.
Yoru was right.
Seeing Guren's expression, Yoru continued, "Have you ever thought about this? With Orochimaru's strength and character, everything you experienced as a child was designed by him. He even caused your family to be destroyed, all for the purpose of getting you."
"After all, you possess Crystal Release, which is a rather special bloodline limit."
Honglian wanted to refute Yeyu, but when she thought about how she had stayed by Orochimaru's side before, how many things she had done for him, and how she had seen how Orochimaru schemed to gain the loyalty of other ninjas, she felt a little scared.
This means that Orochimaru may be the one who killed her parents and family, causing her family's destruction.
"No, that's not right. Lord Orochimaru wouldn't do that to me."
You're lying to me!
Honglian raised her head and roared at Ye Yu.
Ye Yu simply said, "Look at the little guy next to you, see how he treats him."
"As long as he achieves his goal, you are nothing more than a pawn."
"However, your strength is not bad, so you can be considered a decent piece."
Guren's strength is indeed impressive; she definitely possesses the strength of an elite Jonin. In the original story, she single-handedly fought against several Konoha ninjas and even nearly killed Kakashi.
Otherwise, Orochimaru wouldn't have listed him as one of the candidates for reincarnation.
Ye Yu's words once again robbed Hong Lian of the courage to refute.
Because if she thought about it a little, she would realize that nothing about the things she had experienced in the past was right.
After a long while, Honglian's consciousness collapsed, and her body fell limply to the ground.
The principles he had held dear since childhood were shattered by just a few words from Ye Yu.
She didn't want to think about it, but Ye Yu's words kept echoing in her mind, making it impossible for her not to think about them.
But the more I thought about it, the more something seemed off.
There are too many things she wouldn't normally pay attention to, and when combined, they create all sorts of loopholes.
She used to stay by Orochimaru's side all the time, either doing things for him, killing and robbing, and she never had time to think.
This is probably one of Orochimaru's goals: to make those people kill each other when they have nothing to do, or to keep them busy with all sorts of things, so that they have no time or energy to think.
That's why Yoru said that Orochimaru can only fool those with personality flaws or those who aren't very bright.
Orochimaru usually takes care of anyone who's even remotely normal. If he can't take care of someone, he'll persuade them, just like he did with Sasuke in the original story.
In the original work, Sasuke was indeed quite outrageous. He stayed in Orochimaru's lair for three years and was not brainwashed by him.
In the end, it was Orochimaru who was changed.
Aside from the inexplicable feeling of guilt and the desire for atonement at the end, which is baffling, Sasuke's thinking is otherwise perfectly normal.
Honglian knelt before Ye Yu, her face filled with sorrow.
Over the years, her beliefs and ideas have been completely shattered by Ye Yu.
This mental breakdown almost made her faint.
Yukimaru, worried, helped Guren up. "Guren-nee, what's wrong?"
"What did you do to Sister Honglian?"
Yukimaru looked at Yoru and asked angrily.
