Chapter 27

Itachi's eyes twitched slightly as he heard the place Ling Yuefeng would like to start his plans. His gaze went unnoticed by Ling Yuefeng who continued to explain.

"You know, a long time ago when I was still young I had a history with the Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace, for this reason, I think it will be this place that we will dominate first." Ling Yuefeng said calmly, but his gaze filled with greed and anxiety said something else.

"I see..." Itachi said with a stoic expression.

He felt that Ling Yuefeng was a complete idiot, how could he say that he would want to invade the second most powerful sect in the Blue Wind Empire right away? First Itachi would never allow Ling Yuefeng to take the Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace, second, Ling Yuefeng could take the weaker sects first, at least that was how Itachi thought.

Itachi knows that he needs to say a few words now to change Ling Yuefeng's mind a bit, otherwise a catastrophe might happen to his mother's sect. Currently he is not strong enough to handle the entire Heavenly Sword Villa, but in the future this will not be a problem, so what he needs to do now is to postpone this attack, and the best way to do that is to divert attention.

Another problem that Itachi knows he will face, is the Sacred Ground behind the Heavenly Sword Villa, that will be the biggest hindrance, so he needs ways to postpone this crazy plan that Ling Yuefeng came up with.

"Professor, I think I have a better way we can handle this." He said interrupting the speech of Ling Yuefeng who looked at him a little surprised.

"Yes, tell me your thoughts. Even though you are only six years old, your intellect is still superior to many adults, so it's good to hear it." Ling Yuefeng said with a smile on his face.

"It's like this... Why don't we start with the smaller sects? And even smaller cities? With that we can stably take control of the Empire, after all, if we attack the second strongest sect in the Empire right away we will have problems with rebellions, trust, so I believe starting with the weaker places will be much better."

That was the plan Itachi could think of in a few seconds, moreover, this plan made sense to his mind. After all if they could conquer the weaker ones, then they wouldn't have to worry later on about ways to make them work for them.

"I see... Indeed, you are right, I let my thoughts blind my decisions. It is very nice to have a child like you around." Ling Yuefeng said with his eyes shining.

He felt happier and happier to have Itachi by his side, it got to the point where even his children were one step below Itachi in importance.

"Professor, and if what you said is true, in a few years I can be stronger, so I can help even more to win the places for you." Itachi said.

Nodding his head, Ling Yuefeng realized that what his student said was true, Itachi's talent is simply incomparable, by his estimates it won't take more than a few years for him to reach the Emperor Profound Realm, at this time dominating the Blue Wind Empire will be child's play. And once that happens, he can send Itachi to the Sacred Ground.

Ling Yuefeng was feeling like the greatest strategist in the world right now. He felt that it was the destiny of his sect to become a giant in the world, for so many years he kept his wishes and thoughts sealed, but thanks to Itachi many things could be accomplished.

"It is my good fortune to have you by my side." Ling Yuefeng said smiling.

"Gong Yuxian... I will soon have you in my hands... In the past, you rejected me, but now... Hehe!"

These were Ling Yuefeng's true thoughts. Invading the Blue Wind Empire? He really didn't care about that, but if he had to he would do it, he would overthrow the entire Empire to get the woman who rejected him in the past. And even if the woman doesn't want him, he will force her.

Itachi noticed a strange aura emanating from Ling Yuefeng's body, but he chose not to say anything more.

Both Itachi and Ling Yuefeng kept many of their thoughts to themselves.

...

After a long conversation with Ling Yuefeng, Itachi returned to his room, he felt that all he could do for now was to cultivate quietly. Once he had enough strength it wouldn't be too late to deal with the problems.

Besides, after what he said with Ling Yuefeng it is likely that the attack on Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace will be delayed.

"Anyway, it looks like I'll have to conquer some small towns and sects..." Itachi thought.

He felt that this world and shinobi was really the same. Powerful and selfish people make decisions that affect the lives of thousands without even thinking straight.

"I can only keep cultivating. Besides, it seems that the universe inside my body is slowly developing life as my cultivation progresses." He thought.

"Besides..." Itachi muttered as he looked at himself in the mirror.

His black onyx eyes slowly took on the red form with three tomoe. That was the most powerful form of the Sharingan before it evolved into the Mangekyou Sharingan.

Itachi felt that his current Sharingan was at least three times more powerful than when he was in the shinobi world, this could be said to be due to Profound Energy, or perhaps the inheritance he obtained.

"The same cycle... The same eyes... I guess that's the fate of all Uchiha." He muttered as he touched the mirror.

Sharingan so powerful but at the same time so painful.
