Chapter 1261- Good people have a peaceful life
“Kid, show mercy!”
Behind the teen was a white bearded old man that shouted, “Please be careful, don’t hurt my granddaughter.”
I lowered and saw that the girl was like an untamed beast that tried to struggle. She even tried to pull out her dagger to stab me.
“Scoff?”
I looked at her and she really was asking for death. I relaxed and she instantly got her freedom back. She turned around and tried to stab me. The dagger was covered in frost and I didn’t expect she started to cultivate at such a young age.
Her attack was expected so naturally I wouldn’t be hit. I spread my left hand and numerous stars appeared to form Star Shield. Her dagger broke and when the Star Shield was about to recoil onto her, I retracted the skill. The giant shield disappeared and she retreated in shock.
The old man walked over and smacked the back of her head, “You brat, do you want to die?”
She said, “Grandfather, that person is so fierce why did you hit me?”
The old man said, “You brat, can’t you see that he is showing mercy? If not that strike would have killed you. You really are asking for death!”
I returned Butterfly to its sheath and smiled, “Why did you shoot me?”
“You hid in the forest and I thought you were a pig so I shot.” Although her voice was gentle but she still sounded like she was unwilling to admit defeat.
The old man looked at my armor and respect appeared in his eyes, “Young warrior, you shouldn’t be from around here right?”
“En, I came from Earth Realm.”
“You are a God King?”
“Not yet.”
He heaved a sigh of relief, “Since you are not, you should understand that the Heaven Realm is the world of the seven God Emperors, you can get wiped out here at any time.”
“I am not afraid, who are you?” I asked.
The old man was shocked and gave a self mocking laugh, “Us? We are hunter slaves.”
“Hunter slaves, what is that?”
“That is…” he was helpless, “The lowest status humans here, our value is just to farm, hunt, catch fish etc to provide needs for the upper world gods.”
“Upper world?”
I frowned and understood something, “You are talking about those floating palaces? Those people are Upper world gods?”
“Yes.”
He nodded and lowered his voice, “The ears of the gods spread the entire world. Young Warrior let’s not talk about this here, why not follow me to the village. It is late and many hunters will appear and hunt cultivators that are still out.”
“Hunters with God Ancestor strength?”
“Right, they are a bunch of bandits and are ignoring the laws of the three worlds. They hunt experts to strengthen their spiritual powers and don’t even let off hunter slaves.”
I didn’t expect Heaven Realm to have Hunters too so I nodded, “Okay, I shall follow you.”
The girl looked at me furiously but she didn’t say anything disrespectful.
……
Although this was my second time here but I didn’t know where I was at all so it was better to understand the environment. Anyways I wasn’t in a rush to kill Yunqian, doing more homework wasn’t a bad thing.
I followed the old man and his girl back to the village. He hunted a deer but he couldn’t move it and just dragged it. I couldn’t take it and just carried it for him. He smiled while the wariness of the girl was reduced by a lot.
It was dark when we returned to the village and only bits of lamp fire was left.
The old man’s house was simple, it was just a tent with two rooms. One was for the girl and one was his. I was probably going to sleep on the streets today.
I placed the deer on the metal board. This was a fat deer and it had a lot of meat. She looked at the meat and licked her lips, “Grandpa, can we drink deer soup today?”
The old man touched her head and said, “En, slice its head off and cook soup with it. Then send the corpse to Lizheng as our offering for this month, if not we won’t have any income and our lives would be tough.”
The teen pouted, “Deer head soup again, when can we have a bowl of deer leg soup. We could only eat the head of the possum last time, there was so little meat…”
“Lan Kou stop it.” He finally said her name, “We are just hunter slaves, master gave us a chance to live here, if we don’t offer things to the God Emperor, we won’t have a chance to live. Go do it! Let the young warrior help you.”
“Okay.’
The teen held her chopping blade and came to the deer’s side, “Brother pig, do you like deer head soup?”
I laughed, when did I become brother pig? But I still replied, “I do, I am not picky so as long as I am full I won’t ask for much.”
“Scoff.” She said, “You can have it! Let you have some of that disgusting taste! Come, help me slice the head off and give it to Sir Lizheng.”
“En.”
I didn’t take her blade and just pulled out Ganjiang. A light shone and the head fell to the ground. The blood had solidified but there was no blood on Ganjiang at all. I picked up the deer and said, “Lan Kou, where is Lizheng’s house, lead the way okay?”
“Okay.”
Lan Kou turned around and grabbed the tail, “I will lead the way.”
After all, she was just a young teen but now she seemed like she was very comfortable with me. When she turned she looked like a maturing teen, her waist, butt and chest were all top quality. Even her face was a real beauty. Even the hunter shirt couldn’t cover her looks.
I followed her. On the small path of the village, hunters carried prey. Some had many some had only a few. Some used sticks to carry a mountain boar while some had birds and rabbits hanging by their waists. Without needing to think, those who only managed to get a rabbit on their hunt wouldn’t be able to survive much less offer it up.
……
Not long later, a bright mansion appeared ahead. There were already a few hunters giving their offerings. When it was our turn, the black shirt Lizheng touched his beard and he glanced at Lan Kou’s chest and hips, “Lan Kou your grandpa and you have got pretty good gains, you actually managed to kill such a good deer.”
Lan Kou pushed her chest forwards and said, “Sir Lizheng, of course. Grandpa’s archery skills are top in the village.”
“Hahaha!”
Lizheng was checking the prey and his face turned dark, “Lan Kou, why is the head gone? We need a complete deer so it would look good when we barbecue it!”
Lan Kou looked wronged, “Grandpa and I… Haven’t tasted meat in 2 months, apart from this deer we didn’t get anything. Sir Lizheng, let us have some deer meat.”
Lizheng laughed coldly, “Eat meat? Did you forget that you are just hunter slaves? Your master is the great Sir Yunyu, do you want to offer him a deer without a head?”
Lan Kou felt even more wronged, “But… I forgot the taste of meat…”
I said, “Sir can you be kind, anyways Lan Kou’s family isn’t the only one that got a deer.”
“Who are you?”
Lizheng rolled his eyes at me, “Looking at your armor, you should be a cultivator, why are you here?”
Lan Kou pulled my wrist and said, “Sir Lizheng, Brother Pig was found by us, he is just lost.”
Lizheng laughed, “Just lost? Come, take this kid down, I want to see what he really wants!”
Two strong guys walked out from behind Lizheng, their hands held axes.
I frowned and pulled out Butterlfy. There was a sharp ring and a golden light covered an area. An invisible pressure descended. Although I wasn’t a god but Frost taught me Heaven Control so I could easy fake god strength.
“You!”
Lizheng was stunned, “You are a God King?”
I didn’t say a word and it was a silent admission.
Lizheng and the two guys knelt down and kowtowed, “Please forgive us, we didn’t know you were a god king, we… We don’t dare.”
I said calmly, “Rise, don’t tell anyone about this or I will wipe their souls! I wll take this deer back. Apart from this, Lizheng, no more asking Lan Kou and her grandpa for food and don’t provoke them or I will kill you.”
