Chapter 311: Chapter 241: Shi Hao and Liu Village (First Update)_2

“Regarding Little Rock’s matter, this old one feels deeply regretful. Fortunately, everything has turned out well in the end. How you view my Liu Village is your business, and I refrain from commenting on that,”

“However, my Liu Village has its own principles. If it weren’t for the fact that I’ve heard of the two of you being some of the most loyal and capable subordinates in the lower levels, you probably would have been killed immediately.”

“Everything has its limits. If the two of you are truly intent on seeking death, Liu Village can certainly fulfill your small wish. What contributions have you made to Liu Village to warrant our protection?”

At the side, Old Man Lin spoke in a deep voice, his expression was so gloomy it was practically terrifying, clear signs of his anger.

He rarely showed such emotions, but they could not be contained anymore at that moment.

And along with the drop of Old man Lin’s voice.

All around.

Dozens of terrifying auras were also released without any reservation.

In an instant, a fearsome pressure flooded out, covering the entire Stone Village.

All of them were Nobles, as vast as a sea, unfathomable.

Under the pressing auras of these dozens of Nobles, Stone Village seemed like a tiny flat boat on a sea, vulnerable to being capsized by any wave.

One of the Nobles even made a move directly, and the Rune Power surged spectacularly, turning into a gigantic palm as big as a mountain peak in mid-air, picking up War King and King Peng.

The two of them were only at the Array level, although they had already touched a bit of the noble feeling, but they were still far from reaching that realm. They had almost no power to fight back under a real noble and were easily suppressed on the spot.

Their mouths were even stuffed with Tu Wa Zi’s smelly socks that haven’t been washed for many years, and these two Array Realm kings almost lost their lives on the spot from the pungent odour.

“!!!”

This scene made everyone around them gasp and stare in surprise.

Not because Tu Wa Zi quickly took off his socks, but because of the number of Nobles on the scene.

Too many, beyond their imagination.

All of them were at least over forty Nobles.

What a terrifying group of strong people they were. Any one of them could become an Emperor in their region, with territory stretching across thousands of miles and billions of subjects. They represented the limit of power that beings in the Lower Realm Eight Domains could reach.

The Ancient Divine Mountain, the Ancient Forbidden Area, the inheritance left by the Upper Realm in the Lower Realm, they were all jokes, mere decorations. They probably wouldn’t last a moment and would be shattered instantly.

After the channel between the Lower and Upper Realms had completely closed on the surface, the Lower Realm became a world without gods in practice, and the Nobles were the strongest power in the Eight Domains.

Especially after the catastrophe, the number of Nobles became extremely rare and precious. But at that moment, the auras of the Nobles rose without fear of consequences, enveloped together, oppressive enough to make one suffocate.

Since when have Nobles become so worthless?

Every single being in the surroundings swallowed hard, all of them terrified, fearing that these Nobles would attack with just a single wrong word.

These were the top powers in the Lower Realm Eight Domains. In times when gods did not appear, they were like walking floods and beasts, capable of easily destroying a city, undefeated by any being. If they took action here, their destructive powers would surely bring everyone harm.

“These must be Nobles who sought refuge in Liu Village from the Eight Domains before the catastrophe, right?!”

A few cultivators murmured to themselves.

The number of Nobles was too high, even higher than the number of special envoys sent by some powers to pay respects to the Human Emperor.

Apart from that one reason, they couldn’t think of any other explanation.

“What kind of place exactly is Liu Village, to be so extraordinary? If I remember correctly, these Nobles have only joined that mysterious force for about a year now, yet they’re so willing to follow the instructions of an old man at the Spirit Transformation Realm. Though this old man is the village chief of that force, his own cultivation and realm are much too low. Therefore, what makes these Nobles behave like this must be the hidden mysterious strong person among them!”

Within a short time.

Many people had various thoughts, weighing on their hearts.

There were also some sentient beings who felt regret, regretting that they hadn’t joined that mysterious force when the Divine Decree was announced.

After all, to gather so many Nobles numbs at once, probably only Liu Village could do that in the entire Eight Domains.

Such a force could hardly be described as a great sect in the Lower Realm; it was more like a colossal titan, dominating the Eight Domains.

“We are all on the same side, hold off on taking action!”

Right at that moment.

A rather loud and clear shout arose from the distance.

The next moment.

A voice accompanied by the sound of galloping hooves began to emerge from the unending mountains ahead.

It was a unicorn with glossy black fur.

Its physique was sleek and robust, even among these exotic horses, it was considered a superior breed. At that moment, its four hooves moved frantically as it raced over numerous mountains and streams, sprinting towards Stone Village.

A youth in green clothes, at the prime of his life, brimming with vitality. Now riding a horse at sunset, exhuding an invincible aura, he arrived in front of everyone in a blink of an eye.

If not for someone else, it was Shi Hao.

Compared to before, he seemed more mature, his face was more firm and decisive, his eyes still shining like the stars in the sky, big and bright, with a compelling heroism.

He had been handling other matters when he heard about the conflict between King Peng and Liu Village; he rushed back immediately.

…

He dismounted.

Shi Hao quickly walked up to Old man Lin.

He had previously visited the village with the Willow God and was already familiar with Old man Lin.

“Grandpa Lin, I hope you can forgive War King and King Peng’s actions. They’re just straightforward, they didn’t mean any harm to your village!”

“Boy, you should know the rules of Liu Village. The fact that we have not killed them on the spot is already a great mercy. To simply let them off the hook is absolutely impossible!”

Old man Lin shook his head decisively. His appearance still looked kindly as before, but the authority he had built up over the years was undisputed.

“Well then, considering that these two creatures have cultivated to this realm is not easy—it must have cost a lot of energy and effort—I will not make them abandon their cultivation.

Despite escaping death, they can’t avoid punishment—they must serve our Liu Village for a hundred years as slaves. Moreover, during this period they must bear their original forms. I’m planning to reclaim some wasteland—let them transport the rubble!”

After a slight pondering, Old man Lin said to Little Dot.

“That works!”

Without giving it a thought, Shi Hao immediately agreed.

Although this punishment sounded harsh—stripping away one’s freedom for one hundred years—average people may have a hundred years in their hurried lives at most. Even the strong ones in the Array Realm only live up to five hundred years.

However, War King and King Peng are not humans, but divine beasts that have attained Dao. Their lifespan cannot be simply measured by the realm, which is much longer than the average lifespan of this realm.

Most importantly.

In Shi Hao’s view, being able to enter Liu Village and touch the mysterious area was actually an opportunity for these two under his command.

Because he had once explored it, he knew the horror and mystery of that village, and even more, the profound heritage of that village. It even had nearly extinct breeds of true dragons, and there were several Fairy King Species.

Before the Willow God left, he had advised him to interact with Liu Village frequently. With the profound foundation of Liu Village, even the Supreme Daoist Union in the upper realm may not reach it.

Especially, even the Willow God could not see through the origin of the strong behind that mysterious force.

They originally thought that the other party was a Godfire Stage Cultivator who was seriously injured in the upper world. The reason for staying in that village was just to recover. But after going to Liu Village once, both he and the Willow God changed their ideas.

Because everything the other party showed was far beyond the Godfire Realm, and the origin seemed extremely ancient, with knowledge about many ancient secrets that are not even written in history.

“King Peng, War King, when you enter Liu Village in the future, you must listen to Village Chief Lin. Remember not to disobey in any way!”

Turning around, Shi Hao opened his mouth and instructed the two.
