Chapter 1741 - Reunion With Clansmen
When s.h.i.+ Hao saw the old clan chief shed tears, his eyes also became red, emotions too strong. He continuously called out ‘grandpa’, helping the elder wipe away his tears.
s.h.i.+ Hao was raised by the old clan chief through beast milk, and now, he saw that his hair already had some white color. His nose couldn’t help but become sour.
“Grandpa, are you still well? I missed you so much, I came back to see you!” He supported s.h.i.+ Yunfeng.
Fortunately, even though the clan chief was older, his posture was still rather healthy. Even though he was an elder, having some more white hair was still normal.
In the past, even though s.h.i.+ Hao was young, he didn’t hold back on bringing precious medicines, vicious beast meat and other things back to the village, so the villagers’ bodies were all extremely strong.
“Excellent, excellent, excellent…” The elder continuously repeated this word, his voice shaking, extremely moved. Being able to see this child again left his heart with no more regrets, feeling incredibly fulfilled.
He originally thought that he would never see him again in this life. After all, they were separated by the lower and higher realm, it was hard to move between the two.
s.h.i.+ Yunfeng held s.h.i.+ Hao’s hand, looking at him again and again. Even though his eyes carried tears, he was also smiling, feeling incomparably fulfilled and gratified. His child had finally grown up.
“Being able to see you return alive really makes grandpa very happy. I never thought that this day would suddenly come.” s.h.i.+ Yunfeng laughed.
Dazhuang spoke up, telling s.h.i.+ Hao, “Grandpa Chief really misses you, often standing at the front of the village, staring into the distance. Even though he never said it, we all know that he was staring into the mountain path, hoping to see you suddenly appear one day.”
“Exactly, Grandpa Chief has always been thinking about you even after all these years, often sitting at the front of the village in a daze.” Huzi also added.
“Grandpa, I will stay behind for a very long time! Even if I leave again, I will come back often!” s.h.i.+ Hao’s eyes felt sour. He couldn’t help but shed tears.
“Haha, what are you crying for? Today is a happy occasion, it could be said to be a great surprise. You stinky brat finally decided to return, giving us such a surprise. Go, go, go, let’s drink in the village until we are satisfied!” s.h.i.+ Linhu shouted.
“This brat really grew up. Look, he’s even taller than us.” A group of uncles walked over, pulling on s.h.i.+ Hao’s arm, touching his head.
As for the group of youngsters, they were pulled to the side. Dazhuang, Huzi, Ermeng, Pihou, and the others, even though they were all grown up now, before their own fathers, they were still well behaved. When pushed to the side, they could only stand there like mice before cats.
“Uncle, Little Stone uncle, you are unmatched under the sky! This time, you have to teach us skills, we also want to travel the world, defeat everyone!” A child cried out.
“No problem!” s.h.i.+ Hao laughed loudly, immediately picking him up, placing him on his shoulder.
“I also want! Little Stone uncle, hug me too!” A three-year-old snot baby shouted, also wanting to go up.
s.h.i.+ Hao chuckled, placing him on another shoulder.
As a result, the group of children were all jumping around in a lively manner, as if they were a group of monkeys, running around his body. They were all just a few years old, but their bodies were strong.
s.h.i.+ Hao was drowned under a group of children.
Even the old clan chief smiled, backing up, giving them s.p.a.ce.
“You little brats!” s.h.i.+ Linhu and s.h.i.+ Feijao scolded while smiling. They could scold Dazhuang, Ermeng, and the others, manage them strictly, but towards these children, they were rather helpless, hard for them to be stern.
Everyone was extremely enthusiastic, entering the village.
Ermeng’s father gave the big black tortoise behind him a look, patted s.h.i.+ Hao’s shoulder and said, “After all these years, your style hasn’t changed at all! Coming back is one thing, yet you even brought back such a large living prey. However, this black old turtle really is a great mending medicine. When we go back, we’ll throw it into a pot and get some nice soup out of it, it’ll be enough for everyone in the village to drink.”
The group of robust men all nodded.
In the back, the big black turtle immediately erupted into cuses.
It really wanted to berate loudly, but when it saw s.h.i.+ Hao’s expression, it had no choice but to swallow everything back down, unable to act out.
In the end, its dark face became completely green, had to find its own stage to introduce itself. “I have to say, menfolk, you should know that I am the great Black Tortoise! The one who was unstoppable under the sky for all these years, rarely met his match, that person is precisely me!”
“This type of big tortoise really is rarely seen.” Someone said, completely ignoring its words, just too crude.
The group of robust men all nodded, only caring about whether or not this turtle was going to be delicious or not.
The big black tortoise now began to panic, really fearing that s.h.i.+ Hao would stew it up out of consideration for these people. It was because it personally witnessed how savage s.h.i.+ Hao was in his fiendish years, he was also a foodie himself.
“Uncles and grandpas, don’t scare me, you guys should know me! Back then, I brought the Little Stone everywhere under the sky! I am the renowned Black Tortoise, Third Blackie!”
In the end, it had no choice, it had to shout out the name s.h.i.+ Hao gave it.
“What? You were that turtle that ran?”
There was someone who glared out. It was because when s.h.i.+ Hao dealt with the chaos of the seven deities in the past, this turtle really was cunning, running away.
“Really a lowly b.a.s.t.a.r.d!” Someone glared at it.
The big black tortoise immediately wilted, not daring to act rashly here anymore.
It knew that this village was not simple at all, that there was the formation established by the legendary Willow Deity, as well as the deity level Zhuyan, a Vermilion Bird descendant, and others, it couldn’t provoke them.
“Where is Hairy Ball?” s.h.i.+ Hao asked.
Now that he returned to the village, he still didn’t see Hairy Ball and Little Red. That creature had already lit its divine flame before he left, entering the divine level.
“Hairy Ball great one is extremely free and easygoing, wandering the world, often drinking with those ocean clan giants, great desert kings. It would only come back once in a while.” A child said.
As for the little red bird, there was even less of a need to talk about it, it would only make a trip here once in a while to study Willow Deity’s formation. It usually resided in Fire Clan’s ancestral land.
Right at this time, everyone stopped, actually making way for someone.
s.h.i.+ Hao immediately became stupefied. This was a chicken, not all that brilliant, earthen yellow, extremely ordinary-looking. It strode over in a just and brazen manner, having everyone in the village make way for it.
Octadic Treasure Chicken!
This fella really had an infuriating appearance, walking through the streets just like that, forcing everyone to move out of the way for it.
Moreover, when it saw s.h.i.+ Hao, it only gave him an indifferent look, and then tilted its head upwards, slowly strolling around arrogantly like that.
“Heh, a chicken like you even dares rebel?!” s.h.i.+ Hao glared out. This chicken really was trying to defy the heavens, actually disregarding him.
This was just too arrogant! It was nothing more than a chicken. Even though it was one of the archaic octadic delicacies, it was treating itself as too big of a deal! After all these years of not seeing him, it was actually still this calm, completely ignoring him.
“It really worked hard all these years, every single egg it laid is comparable to a spiritual medicine, making all of the children in the village strong like little bulls.” Someone said.
One could see that they were grateful towards this chicken, giving it preferential treatment. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have moved out of the way for it.
In reality, the Octadic Treasure Chicken really was extraordinary, its contributions to Stone Village great. Because the food was good, the egg production quick, all of them spiritual medicine level, that was why the children became so strong and healthy, its value great.
“It’s fine, this time, I found some companions for it, I guarantee that it’ll lower its head, won’t be so arrogant anymore.”
When s.h.i.+ Hao spoke up to here, he produced a beast skinned pouch, undoing the rope around the opening. This was a spatial magical artifact, able to store living things.
Pulengleng!
There were several chickens that fell out, all of them let out, Octadic Treasure Chickens, male and female included.
The villagers were immediately stupefied. For them, these were divine birds, able to produce spiritual medicine eggs endlessly, establish foundations for their children, great mending medicines even for adults, ones that could promise longevity!
“There are male ones too! Doesn’t this mean that they can give birth to chicks, raise a large group of Octadic Treasure Chickens?” Someone cheered loudly.
“Of course, even if we wanted to eat them in the future, it wouldn’t be a problem.” s.h.i.+ Hao said.
He was just saying it, the villagers definitely wouldn’t agree.
In the Nine Heavens above, he knew that he was going to leave, return to the lower realms, so he had many people buy treasures for him, there was even less of a need to talk about divine medicines. The Octadic Treasure Chickens alone numbered six or seven.
Only in the Nine Heavens above would one be able to buy so many at once. After all, this species was almost extinct.
The main reason was because the great powers were giving Heavenly Deity Inst.i.tution, as well as his glorious self face, that is why they agreed to exchange them.
In the distance, the Octadic Treasure Chicken that was proudly and slowly strolling suddenly turned around. When it saw its own species, it immediately widened its eyes, flapping its wings, loudly crying out, throwing itself over.
“Go, you can bring them to get used to this place.” s.h.i.+ Hao released several Octadic Treasure Chickens, having them reunite.
Suddenly, bird cries sounded from the distance. Three figures quickly rushed over like dark clouds, covering a larger half of the skies. These were powerful vicious birds.
s.h.i.+ Hao frowned. There was this type of vicious creatures near Stone Village? They were extremely large, covering the heavenly sun.
However, immediately afterwards, he smiled. It was actually them, they all grew up.
Several giant birds descended from the distance, swooping towards Stone Village. Their bodies shrunk, turning into the size of ordinary people.
Otherwise, Stone Village’s streets definitely couldn’t hold them.
“Ah, s.h.i.+ Hao, it’s s.h.i.+ Hao! He came back!” They cried out.
“Big Peng, Little Green, Violet Cloud!” s.h.i.+ Hao also shouted out.
These were three vicious birds who grew up with him, the Green Scaled Eagle’s descendants. However, they had all mutated, more like peng birds when they were young. Now, their transformations were great, bloodlines pure.
“Where is Aunt Green Scaled Eagle?” s.h.i.+ Hao asked.
“She’s cultivating in seclusion far away.” Little Green replied. It quickly rushed over. The three birds were too excited.
Big Peng’s feathers shone, as if cast from gold. Little Green’s entire body flickered with metallic l.u.s.ter, while purple multicolored light rose from Violet Cloud. All of them were dazzling, extremely powerful.
They always resided in Stone Village, viewing the villagers as their own, protecting the villagers in the great wilderness when they went hunting, moreover often bringing back rare and powerful vicious beasts for them.
“Willow Deity’s help really wasn’t in vain back then.” s.h.i.+ Hao praised. He was extremely close to them, rubbing their necks. It was as if he returned to his childhood. These were close companions who he grew up with.
In the past, Willow Deity had helped them wash their fur, cleanse their marrow, allowing them to retrace their ancestry. Now, as they grew, they became more and more powerful, their bloodlines pure.
s.h.i.+ Hao knew that with their current apt.i.tudes, they were extremely suitable for cultivating the Kun Peng Technique!
“Aiyou, a ghost, who am I seeing?” Right at this time, a voice sounded from the skies. A fiery red big bird flew over, incredibly excited. It simply didn’t believe its eyes.
It was precisely the big red bird. It bared its fangs and brandished its claws, throwing itself at s.h.i.+ Hao, wis.h.i.+ng to knock him down.
“Where is that Second Baldy brother of mine? Why didn’t he return from the higher realm with you?” The big red bird cried out.
This fella really was a good for nothing. Back then, it had been bullied badly by Second Baldy, but in reality, Second Baldy really was its senior, just that it ended up losing all of its hair.
“This really is a rare reunion.” The old clan chief s.h.i.+ Yunfeng was all smiles, stroking his beard, extremely happy. “Let’s go, hurry and get Qingfeng back here, tell him that his big brother has returned.”
Qingfeng was now Stone Country’s emperor.
Back then, s.h.i.+ Hao swept through all enemies, becoming Stone Emperor. In the end, he handed the position of emperor to Qingfeng.
Qingfeng suffered greatly when he was young, a foot even ruined, almost crippled. Everything he suffered was in s.h.i.+ Hao’s place.
s.h.i.+ Hao always felt like he left him down. He always treated him extremely well, the two close, basically blood brothers.
“Uncle Qingfeng encountered some problems recently. Now, everything will be fine. Little Stone uncle returned, lets see who dares stir up trouble now!” A group of children cried out.
