C13 (1/2)

This was the end of the play like fight between youngsters.

However, the youths of the Rock Village were not completely empty-handed. At least, Shi Meng and his promise to battle for the past three days had filled their hearts with anticipation.

In comparison to the expectations of the young man from Rock Village, the rest of the Redbud Village were actually worried.

Anyone could tell at this moment that Li Ye, who had not merged with his native beast spirit, was definitely not a match for Shi Meng.

”Night …” Brother Ye, are you really going to duel with Shi Meng in three days? ” Ah Yue frowned, his face filled with worry.

Li Ye shrugged indifferently, but looked towards Ah Yue and asked instead, ”Could it be that we really have to watch your sister marry him?”

”But, but …”

”Don't worry. Although my realm is inferior to his, it will not be easy for him to defeat me. Otherwise, with his domineering nature, how could he be so careless today?” Li Ye laughed.

In that exchange between him and Shi Meng just now, he also clearly felt the abnormality of the stone egg in his body.

Although the moment of contact was extremely short, Li Ye could clearly feel the wave of suction force that came from the location of the stone egg.

That faint suction force had actually absorbed a wisp of nature's Origin Energy condensed in Shi Meng's palm.

Although Li Ye did not know much about the changes in the stone egg, he was certain that it urgently needed energy, energy that could help it hatch.

Earlier, the broken sword's cold aura and the spirit energy on Shi Meng's palm were similar.

It was just that he did not know what terrifying things were born from this stone egg.

”Li …” Big Brother Li Ye, you actually don't have to get involved in this at all. ” Jing Wuhui, who had been silent for a long time, lightly pursed her lips.

Hearing that, Li Ye's body trembled, he looked at Jing Wuhui, and the expression of despair suddenly appeared in his mind.

”You have saved my life. Consider this as me repaying your debt of gratitude.” he said in a deep voice.

Just to repay the favor?

For some reason, a hint of disappointment surfaced in Jing Wuhui's heart.

She muttered to herself as she looked at Li Ye, but laughed at herself, and said: ”Let's return to the village, I'll bring you to see the village chief.”

Redbud Village, just a few dozen households, with a population of no more than a hundred.

At the northernmost part of the village, where the branches crossed each other, there was a wooden house with clearly more exquisite and spacious buildings.

This hut was where the Redbud Village's village chief, Jing Mo, lived. At the same time, it was also where the Redbud Village's villagers discussed the important matters of the village.

Inside the wooden house.

An old man with white hair and a benevolent appearance sat at the seat of honor. Below him were a few elderly villagers.

At this time, they were staring at Jing Wuhui and Li Ye who were standing in the middle of the arena with serious expressions.

”So you're saying, you two have really agreed to the three day battle agreement that Stinky kid Shi Meng asked for?” After being silent for a long time, Jing Mo, who was seated on the main seat, finally let out a long sigh, and looked at Jing Wuhui worriedly.

Jing Wuhui nodded, but anxiously said: ”Village Chief, please don't blame him, this … This is all a fault without regrets. ”

”What did you do wrong?” Jing Mo shook his head and laughed bitterly: ”You can only blame our village for being weak. In order to defend against the beasts, we need the protection of the Rock Village.”

Jing Mo stood up, and slowly walked to Jing Wuhui, and intimately patted the latter's shoulders, ”Forget it! ”You miserable child, just because you don't want to marry Shi Meng, if you say so, no one in the village will force you.”

”It's just that, it's just that, in the future, if we encounter the invasion of demon beasts again, without the protection of the Rock Village, how are we supposed to act?” Jing Wuhui muttered to herself, ”If she gave her life to the village for the sake of her own selfish desire, how could she feel at ease without regrets?”

”Village head.” Li Ye who had been silent the entire time suddenly spoke out, his eyes flickered, he looked at Jing Mo and continued: ”Now that my family has been destroyed, I have nowhere to return to, as long as I am ignorant and unabandoned, I am willing to stay here to protect the village.”

With Li Ye's strength at the peak of Yellow Rank Soul Man, it was more than enough to protect Redbud Village from demon beasts.

”This …” A hint of happiness flashed past Jing Mo's eyes. He muttered to himself, turned to look at Jing Wuhui, and hesitantly said: ”It's not that this old man is not willing to accept you, it's just that this Redbud Village has always been against foreigners, and does not wish to interact too much with outsiders …”

Hearing Jing Mo's words, Li Ye was stunned, he stood there in a daze and could not help but laugh bitterly in his heart. The old elder's words had already revealed his rejection of Jing Mo.

”Village Head Grandpa!” Jing Wuhui frowned slightly, and said anxiously, ”He … He has nowhere to go now, if we do not take him in, how can he survive in the 100 000 Wu Mountain alone? ”

”You silly child! I didn't say I wouldn't take him in. ” Jing Mo stared at the two of them meaningfully and laughed.
