Chapter 59: Motley Crowd
Kong Li’s head was touched and comforted, as if he had returned to his old days in the clan.
In the past, he always caused trouble at home, and there were guests at home. They were the mystic turtle father and son who lived in the sea. He bullied turtle son for running slowly and drew snails on the turtle sh.e.l.ls.
In the end, his father caught him and made him to clean the turtle sh.e.l.l. He was even beaten until he cried loudly. The turtle son even laughed at him, so he cried even more miserably.
However, after his father beat him up, his mother would pat his head like this, telling him not to be mischievous in the future, or else she would pluck his fur and make him stay in the room.
Kong Li’s eyes were tearing up as he looked up at Jiang Yun. His face was bruised, and there were traces of tears. He said in a hoa.r.s.e voice,
“You, you, you look like my mother.”
After saying that, he rubbed his head against Jiang Yun’s hand with a nostalgic look.
Jiang Yun was speechless
F*ck you!
Jiang Yun slapped Kong Li’s head away when he heard his words. He didn’t want to deal with him. Let this stupid bird fend for himself. He was tired.
Jiang Yun sat straight back on the recliner and lay flat like a salted fish. He even covered his face with a fan and didn’t say a word.
He originally wanted to heal Kong Li’s injuries, but now, he wanted punch him in the face again! This bird was really annoying!
Kong Li saw that Jiang Yun didn’t care about him and wasn’t sad at all. He looked around and didn’t treat himself as an outsider.
Jiang Yun also let him go. Anyway, he was awake now, so he couldn’t let this bird tear his house apart again.
His body was in great pain, so it was difficult for him to walk in human form. Kong Li simply reverted back to peac.o.c.k form and consciously shrunk to mimicry. He was as big as an ordinary peac.o.c.k.
However, his current form was not glamorous at all. There were only two or three long tail feathers left. They were still tattered and there were not many good hairs on his body.
Kong Li felt that his b.u.t.tocks were a little cold. He turned his head to look, and sure enough, they were all bald. What a heartache! He peeked at Jiang Yun. It doesn’t matter. He was not a female peac.o.c.k.
As he circled around Jiang Yun’s territory, he used his beak to comb through the remaining hair.
Jiang Yun had been taking in disciples and fighting for the past few days, and his experience points had soared. The radius of his absolute domain had expanded to 600 meters, but he had only casually tidied up some areas.
He had been carefully planning his sect’s territory, but it was all this stupid bird’s fault for disturbing his peace and quiet.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yun simply sat up, picked up the paper and pen that appeared out of thin air, and continued planning.
As Jiang Yun thought, the scene in the absolute domain also changed according to his thoughts.
Kong Li saw with his own eyes that the originally empty gra.s.sland had turned into a lotus pond. He took two steps closer and even smelled the fragrance of the lotus flowers. He saw the koi fish swimming leisurely in the water.
The little peac.o.c.k had seen many things. He was very surprised, but he did not show any fear. He even talked to Jiang Yun excitedly, “Hey, is this an illusion? It’s so realistic.”.
Jiang Yun was still angry because of his sentence, “You seem to be my mother”. He just ignored him.
Kong Li was not angry. He continued to walk around and was curious about everything. This was the first time he had visited someone’s home like this.
On Jiang Yun’s side, it looked like he was relaxing at home. However, sparrow girl and the others, who had just been thrown out of the barrier, were not having an easy time.
Mount G.o.d of Heaven was located at the top of the mountain. Other than the barrier where Jiang Yun was, it was filled with a biting cold wind and snow.
After staying outside the barrier for a short while, sparrow girl was almost covered by the snow. Her head was covered with snow, and her eyebrows were covered with frost.
Previously, Kong Li used his spiritual power to protect them, and they didn’t feel cold. Now that Kong Li had left, they were almost frozen into popsicles.
Another person left quietly. Sparrow girl didn’t take her eyes off the barrier that was covered by lightning.
Originally, once they were thrown out of the barrier, everyone was determined to wait for Kong Li to come out. At the very least, they wanted to hear from him.
However, the mountain peak was too cold, and the wind and snow were too strong. Moreover, just as Jiang Yun had thought, people were not united.
Originally, if the team of nearly a thousand people were united and helped each other, they would at least be able to stay here for three to five days. There would always be a time when Jiang Yun wanted to see the scenery.
Unfortunately, not everyone was like sparrow girl. Her heart was filled with Kong Li’s consolation. There were always people who were unwilling to contribute and did not want to bear the anger that Jiang Yun might have.
Some of the more negative people even felt that Kong Li was most likely already crippled. They would not gain anything by following him.
However, the first person who used the excuse to take the cloak down the mountain to protect himself from the cold never returned. After that, the hearts of the people wavered, and they left one after another.
Many people even went to persuade sparrow girl to leave. It was as if as long as sparrow girl left as well, they would not be the ones who would easily betray their master.
“Sparrow, the king is so heavily injured. Even if that person said that he would not kill him, the king might…”
“That’s right. That expert seems to be temperamental. He might not like the king and might attack again.”
“This was originally a glimmer of hope that the king had sought for us. The king has already let us leave. If we don’t leave, wouldn’t we be letting down the king’s sacrifice?”
Both the words and the words were saying that Kong Li was already dead. Sparrow girl did not get angry when she heard this. She only coldly told them not to persuade her anymore.
She stubbornly stood guard outside the barrier, just half a meter away from Kong Li.
There were also people who were fl.u.s.tered and angry. They said unpleasant words to vent their anger, “Ha, who knows if he’s already dead. Who are we pretending to be loyal to? It seems like we’re heartless.”
“Who knows? Maybe someone saw the king’s good looks and was easy to talk to, so they had thoughts that they shouldn’t have.”
A bunch of foul language. In the end, the two sides even quarreled. But after the quarrel, they all left.
Outside the barrier, it was completely quiet. In the end, only sparrow girl stood there stubbornly.
Not far away, there were two gazes quietly watching the farce. They saw that in the end, only sparrow girl was waiting there alone, from dawn to dusk.
The person in the dark frowned and turned around to leave. He had to report this matter to the clan leader as soon as possible. He could not let anything happen to the young master.
In fact, not long after Kong Li left home, his father had already sent people to follow him. They were hidden among the followers. Kong Li was still so foolish that he did not know. He thought that his father would only know about his news after he died.
Another pair of eyes was He Zhao.
Last night, he ran through the night and ran into Kong Li and the others at the foot of the mountain. Originally, he wanted to secretly possess the body of an unremarkable magical beast.
Who would have thought that Kong Li had actually been protecting that group of people with his spiritual power? His spiritual power was colorless, and He Zhao only discovered it after he directly b.u.mped into it.
When He Zhao b.u.mped into the spiritual power that was much higher than his, he couldn’t help but curse in his heart, “What kind of world is this? Are the underlings being treated so well these days? That Black Bear Spirit and Yu Sisi were protected by him, and now even a Core Formation Realm magical beast is being protected!”
“Who is it?”
He Zhao turned around and wanted to run, but he didn’t know that Kong Li’s cultivation was indeed impressive. The pressure of the Spirit King Realm spread out, and He Zhao’s primordial spirit directly prostrated on the ground, unable to move at all.
Seeing that he couldn’t escape, he looked up again. He saw that the leader of this group was a simple character with a face of “I am very gullible”, and immediately had a plan in mind.
He made up a story on the spot, portraying himself as a poor itinerant cultivator who had been killed and robbed of his treasure, and had an old and young at home. He tricked this little peac.o.c.k so much that he was filled with anger and wanted to immediately go up the mountain.
