The three visitors from Earth City stood up, their expressions unfriendly as they stared at Li Mo. They had encountered resistance and defiance before, and quite a lot of it.
Perhaps even Jiang Yu, who issued the decrees, hadn't expected the Earth City that submitted to them to be so ruthless in taking advantage.
Wielding a chicken feather as an imperial decree, they dared to push the Human City villagers to the brink of starvation.
And this confidence came from the fact that, other than being greedy, they didn't even need the food provided ❖ Nоvеl𝚒ght ❖ (Exclusive on Nоvеl𝚒ght) by the Celestial Race.
"I think your proposal is meaningless."
Li Mo refilled his tea: "Open the door and see our guests out!"
The door to the ancestral hall was opened by the villagers inside, revealing a dense crowd of dark faces outside, all looking in.
They were all very calm.
Fifteen years ago, Great King Village, like other ordinary villages, was very afraid of demons.
But now, they had collectively driven away or killed demons that had infiltrated the village's vicinity several times.
They weren't even afraid of those terrifying things, let alone a few powerful people?
Moreover, Village Chief Li would tell them the Dao every so often.
Human City was bound to encounter famine. If everyone had no food, they could only sell the land they had painstakingly cultivated.
The land would fall into the hands of Earth City people who had grain. Once the famine passed, the prosperous years to come would no longer belong to their descendants.
Other Dao, people might not understand, but this land that nurtured them, they did.
"Please, if the door is closed again, it won't be something you can open just because you want to."
"..."
Seeing this, the Earth City youth was about to make an example of someone, but he was held back.
The middle-aged man cupped his hands towards Li Mo: "We will meet again!"
With that, he led the two away.
"Uncle Deng, they're just a bunch of villagers. They refused a toast, why did you stop me just now?" The youth was indignant.
The middle-aged man named Deng glanced at him and snorted: freēwēbnovel.com
"Don't you think the display in the ancestral hall just now was very strange?"
The tea table was made from the roots of a hundred-year-old kudzu tree demon; the burning incense was made from the fat of human snakes; the mats under their feet were the fur of Black Wind Bears;
It was unbelievable, they had encountered so many demons, yet Great King Village was surprisingly peaceful and harmonious!
And these villagers seemed to have all practiced some kind of martial art that was similar yet different!
"If we had made a move just now, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to leave the ancestral hall..."
The Earth City woman looked terrified and asked again:
"But Great King Village is so prosperous, if we can't bring it under our rule, how will we report back?"
"We can't control Great King Village, but can't the Celestial Race?"
"This old man sees that the martial arts on those people are strange, with the aura of demons. They might have already colluded with demons. This matter is serious and must be decided by the Celestial City's upper clan!"
The middle-aged man mounted his horse.
Three fast horses left the village, and a figure slipped down from a tree.
Dong Er Niu, the little boy who used to follow Li Mo around, wanting to play with 'good swords,' had now grown into an adult, and his talent was excellent.
He had been hiding in the tree just now, and even the Earth City warriors hadn't noticed him.
He immediately went to the ancestral hall.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
The trio had already passed through a taller and more magnificent city wall and had an audience with the Celestial Race member stationed in their area.
This Celestial Race member was a wild woman, with wheat-colored skin and black hair that moved without wind. She looked to be in her early thirties.
It was said that she was extraordinary even among the Celestial Race; her Innate accompanying auspicious light was purple, and with every gesture, she could stir up boundless storms.
"Someone in Human City is colluding with demons?"
Feng Zhi frowned, her tone displeased: "This is such a small matter, you should handle it yourselves. Do you need to bother me?" freeweɓnovel.cøm
Whether they were people from Human City or Earth City, in her eyes, there was little difference.
"The villagers of Great King Village seem to have gained power from demons."
The three trembled, only the middle-aged man could barely speak.
As soon as his voice fell.
The woman opposite suddenly stood up, gently raised her hand, and a gust of wind swept the middle-aged man before her:
"What you just said, is it true?"
"Absolutely true!"
Feng Zhi nodded, flicking her sleeve.
This matter was serious; she had to confirm it herself.
The swirling wind carried her and the three of them straight up into the azure sky, whistling through the high altitude.
In just fifteen minutes, she had crossed a long distance according to the guidance and arrived outside Great King Village.
What met her eyes were neat fields and lush mountains and rivers.
People were working in the fields, and hunters were hunting in the mountains.
The farmers working were not bent over, but rather crouched low, like giant praying mantises hunting, using their sickles as hand blades, cutting down large patches of weeds with a single swing.
One man, finding the ox plowing too slowly, directly pushed the old yellow ox aside, letting it rest and eat grass, and then hitched himself to the plow to cultivate the field.
The scene in the farmland was already strange enough.
The hunting scene in the mountains was even more outrageous.
A hunter pointed at a wild boar opposite, hooking his finger with a look of disdain:
"Dead pig, come here!"
"Oink?!"
When had a wild boar ever suffered such insult? It became furious, charging forward to gore the hunter to death.
But the hunter let out a 'hey,' braced himself, and charged back fiercely.
Bang—
It was the rather large wild boar that flew out, knocking it out during its flight.
"See, I told you Great King Village was off!"
The middle-aged man from Earth City pointed and gestured, full of confidence.
What kind of decent person farms and hunts like this?
"Mantis, Wild Ox, Iron-Horned Rhinoceros..."
Feng Zhi indeed saw the shadows of those demons in them.
There was no identical Qi, but they were definitely imitating!
And... not only was there no demonic Qi, but quite the opposite.
Was there a fellow Celestial Race member living in seclusion in the village?
Wild winds surged around her heart and body, and a light cyan color appeared in her eyes. She landed on the ground and walked towards the direction from which the Qi came.
The Celestial Race was a loose group, so it was normal for some to be traveling outside, but the Human City area was too large, so encounters were rare.
Just then, she saw a small farmhouse courtyard.
Through the door, there was a serene figure.
She wore her hair in braids, dressed in coarse cloth, with a face like frost and snow, and moist red lips, like an ultimate beauty who had suddenly intruded into this world.
All Celestial Race members are imbued with Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, and their appearances are all very beautiful.
But compared to her, even they seemed to pale in that clear, cold, and enchanting beauty.
Ying Bing, holding the freshly washed clothes in her arms, frowned and looked at the sky.
"Suddenly, such a strong wind."
Li Mo also came over to help her collect the clothes.
"This is the chief of all evils! The village chief of this place!"
The middle-aged man from Earth City pointed at him and said.
Li Mo: "?"
Little Village Chief Li thought that 'evil' wasn't led by 'Li' either... PS: The Celestial-Human City plot won't be long and drawn-out, but important parts still need to be written, after all, the time span is so large, even if simplified, it won't be too short.
Hmm, this is a dungeon, writing it too long would be like starting a new book (where did everyone go, is this still investing in Rebirth Empress?)
And then there's that aspect of the plot, the hammer and sickle, this little web novel writer won't write what shouldn't be written, and won't get too caught up in details, mainly it's based on the fundamental worldview of this book, hmm, absolutely positive energy!
