Chapter 801: Martial Path Strongman? Madman
At the entrance of the small mountain village,
Second Elder stood at the village entrance, leaning on his cane, glaring outside the village at Luo Xingchen with fiery eyes!
Second Elder was experienced, and he knew that in facing villains from outside the village, he must not show any signs of weakness.
He had to overpower him!
At the same time, he was sizing up Luo Xingchen outside the village.
He looked... unimpressive, a withered old man, tall but dressed in ragged clothes, not even wearing decent attire...
Could he be a beggar? A homeless person?
From the first glance, Second Elder had a notion in his mind!
At this moment, Luo Xingchen, a supreme master of martial path, saw Second Elder and panicked entirely!
His face became stiff, his body trembled, frightened to the extreme.
This aura…
This feeling…
My God, could it be that he is a forbidden being who walked out from that unspeakable place?
It must be so!
Someone actually came out from that unspeakable place...
Is this going to shake heaven?
It is known that Luo Xingchen is a true unparalleled expert, his realm even stronger than the ten venerables of old, having already touched the mysterious paths beyond the Ascendant Path.
He knew more secrets, fully aware that such an entity before him... shouldn't appear in the Primordial Ancestral World, and even the most hidden parts of the Grey Mist Sea couldn't bear such a being.
Merely appearing, his presence could burst the entire Primordial Ancestral World!
"Did... Did you walk over from that road?"
Luo Xingchen's voice trembled.
Upon seeing this, Second Elder thought to himself, Ah, I've intimidated him!
This was the time to press on!
He immediately shouted,
"If not from that road, did you fly here?"
"Speak, who are you to dare chase into our village, do you wish to die?"
Saying this, he raised his cane and stamped it heavily on the ground!
This gesture from Second Elder scared Luo Xingchen out of his wits.
"No... Elder, please, don't strike!"
He fell to his knees!
At this moment, cold sweat ran down his forehead, tense to the utmost.
Because, he had felt that the casual release of energy from that cane, if it targeted him...
He would either not die or be severely injured!
A true big shot.
And this big shot already admitted, he... came from that road.
What sin have I committed to encounter such a being?
He knelt on the ground, saying;
"Elder... You are a forbidden existence, a supreme rarity unseen for ages... I was blind as Mount Tai, please leave me a sliver of hope!"
"I truly didn't mean to intrude deliberately!"
He completely succumbed, pleading.
Having gone through the ups and downs of the world, he understood too well, that demeanor of experts... it's not important, one must yield when necessary to live longer.
And in front of such a being, how could he count himself as an expert at all.
Face doesn't matter!
Seeing this, Second Elder was also taken aback.
What is this guy doing?
A forbidden existence? A supreme rarity unseen for ages? What are all these crazy talks...
An audacious thought suddenly flashed through Second Elder's mind!
Could it be...
Could it be...
Could it be that this guy is mad? That he has a mental issue??
He immediately thought, why would a normal withered old man be able to chase Long Zixuan and the other young fellows around.
It's because this old man is a mad man!
After all, who isn't afraid of a mad man not in his right mind?
Even Second Elder became somewhat uneasy.
He couldn't help but test,
"Look, there's some food by the roadside, do you want to eat it?"
Second Elder pointed to a heap of cow dung beside the road with his cane.
A normal person would definitely be able to tell!
But when Luo Xingchen looked towards the cow dung next to him, he was startled.
That cow dung... it actually contained forbidden energy!
Incredible!
Could it be, there's also a forbidden cow hidden here?
Even though it's dung, it genuinely contains forbidden energy!
If he could obtain it, he could even approach a forbidden opportunity...
The elder was asking him if he wanted to eat, clearly asking if he wanted the forbidden opportunity here.
How could he miss it? Absolutely not!
He hurriedly nodded, saying to Second Elder:
"I do!"
"Elder... shall I eat it now?"
His eyes were clearly filled with hope!
Upon hearing this, Second Elder's heart skipped a beat.
Done, he's truly a madman!
Completely insane!
For a moment, even Second Elder was somewhat at a loss.
If it was a normal person, you could scare him a bit, or call someone to chase him out.
But now, facing someone abnormal...
Fight? Second Elder couldn't bring himself to do it.
Chase away? Second Elder felt pity for him.
"Ah... don't eat that... it's not edible."
Second Elder spoke softly, his compassion stirring:
"Never mind, come with me to the village, we're having a feast in the village tonight!"
Though he's not mentally sound, it wouldn't hurt to feed him well before he leaves.
Upon hearing this, Luo Xingchen was immediately excited!
This senior... was actually allowing him to enter this village?
Such a supreme place?
At that moment, he was extremely thrilled!
Yet, a trace of fear also crossed his mind; entering such a place with his body full of Origin of the Grey Mist, he feared he might die!
"Senior... I'm afraid I'll die in there."
He spoke frankly and timidly.
When Second Elder heard this, he thought to himself that this old man's mind was really not right... and immediately said,
"Don't be afraid, follow me, and you won't die."
Having heard this, Luo Xingchen had no choice but to grit his teeth and follow, since, after all, when a big shot speaks, one must listen.
Stepping into the village.
Luo Xingchen immediately felt an indescribable oppressive force!
He felt like he could be killed at any moment!
But, following behind Second Elder, he was surprisingly unharmed!
Only then did he feel relieved, as long as he didn't die... everything else was negotiable.
He immediately lowered his head and carefully followed Second Elder.
Soon, he saw the scenery of the village, and he was somewhat dazed.
A blade of grass seemed as if it had grown from a forbidden, ineffable place, making him afraid to look directly at it!
A domestic goose walked by the roadside and honked at him, frightening him so much that his legs went weak.
A caterpillar staring at him made him even more panicked, and he reluctantly said to Second Elder,
"Senior, it... it wouldn't want to eat me, would it?"
Pointing at the caterpillar, he said with a mournful face,
"I don't taste good!"
Seeing this, Second Elder's old eyes filled with a look of pity and sympathy.
This old man was truly muddle-headed, completely insane.
Even afraid of a caterpillar...
"Don't worry, it's not hungry right now, it won't eat you."
Second Elder comforted.
But upon hearing this, Luo Xingchen became even more panicked.
Did this mean it would eat him if it were hungry?
His fears grew, coming to this little village... he might have really been courting death!
...
At this moment.
Long Zixuan and the others had already placed Second Elder's fishing net on the open area in the village ready for a feast.
And they had informed the villagers, males and females, young and old, to prepare for the meal.
The village immediately bustled with activity; it had been a long time since they had had a feast, and everyone came in high spirits.
Then, Long Zixuan and the others headed towards Wu'er Xianting.
Before long, they arrived in front of a small courtyard.
...
At this moment.
Inside the courtyard.
"I wonder how Zi Xuan and the others are doing..."
It was getting a bit late, and Li Fan was sitting under the peach tree, murmuring to himself.
He had a vague dream at noon, and although he didn't care much about it, he was still somewhat concerned.
Da De and the others... they should be fine, right?
At the same time, he was also looking forward to, hoping that Long Zixuan and the others would come back soon.
To bring back that last rare plant...
His task would then be completed!
By then, he would be able to break through...
Foundation Establishment Level One?
Just thinking about it was exciting!
"Great Demon King..."
At that moment, Yun Xi came out of the room, rubbing her sleepy eyes, and said,
"I had a dream while I was having my beauty sleep."
Inside the courtyard, Yun Xi could be said to have the most leisurely time.
Nanfeng Ziling and other disciples studied diligently every day, learning the knowledge that Li Fan taught, and were quite hardworking.
Only Yun Xi, she was very content, sometimes playing chess with Li Fan, sometimes learning to paint with Zi Ling, sometimes reading with Xinning, and even went to the kitchen to make "dark cuisine" with Gong Ya...
Even, after hearing from Li Fan that napping in the afternoon could beautify one's skin, she would occasionally take an afternoon nap.
At this moment, seeing her walking out with sleepy eyes, Li Fan couldn't help but smile and ask,
"What did you dream about?"
Yun Xi came over, her exceptionally beautiful eyes slightly red, and said,
"I dreamed you gave me a jade pendant... then you left, I kept looking, kept looking, but couldn't find you... and the jade pendant was broken."
Li Fan stood up, gently wiped her tears, and said softly,
"Aren't I right here? Don't worry, I won't leave."
"If you like the jade pendant, how about I carve one for you later? What small animal do you like, and we'll carve it on the jade pendant."
"How about a butterfly?"
Yun Xi shook her head and said,
"No butterfly... I want it inscribed with words, um... I want the word 'Fan', the one in the dream had the word 'Fan' on it."
Li Fan laughed, "Alright!"
"I promise I'll make it for you someday."
He had also learned to identify jade and the techniques of carving.
As long as he had suitable jade, making a jade pendant was not difficult.
Upon hearing this, Yun Xi's reddened eyes finally showed a smile and said,
"Pinky swear!"
Li Fan said,
"Pinky swear."
The two of them locked pinkies and gently pressed their thumbs together.
"Master, we're back."
At that moment, a voice from outside had already sounded.
It was Long Zixuan and the others!
...
The cold rain outside urged me to slip under the covers.
Good night, sleep, retire, fall asleep.
