Chapter 1565: Little Sea Village (1/2)
Little Sea Village was a tiny fis.h.i.+ng town, at least from the view of the main continent.
It was located in a remote region in the Grand Sea, far away from the hustle and bustle of the cultivation world.
This fis.h.i.+ng village was still under the jurisdiction of Heaven Suppression City.
There was nothing special about this village and its few residents. It seemed to be floating across the vast sea like a tiny boat, lonely and calm.
As expected, fis.h.i.+ng was the main way of life here. It seemed to be an entirely different world versus the distant cultivation world.
However, this was not the case. Outsiders didn’t know of the village and its secret. Even the inhabitants of this place weren’t privy to all the information.
After leaving the Field of Dragon War, Li Qiye headed for this tiny village because he wanted to take something from this place in order to complete his Netherlord Hexagear Launcher, allowing it to exert its true power.
Due to its nature of being a forbidden weapon, it was too easy to use. For safety reasons, Li Qiye made necessary preparations after its creation by separating it into two sections. The main one was hidden beneath the earth vein while the other one was stored in this place.
Of course, the village itself carried a greater significance to both him and Heaven Suppression.
Nevertheless, this eluded all outsiders, especially someone like Gu Zun since the Black Dragon King didn’t trust him.
Sentiments struck him the moment he set foot in this village after so many years. Many generations have gone by but this tiny village still remained.
There was only around one thousand meter from start to end of this village with wooden houses on both sides of the street. They were quite old, seemingly built for many years now.
There were drying fishnets before each house and some boats. Some houses had strings of fish as well…
A dog barked after seeing a stranger like him entering the village. In a short period, the people here came out of their houses to take a look. There were old men and women and some children as well. They carefully observed this uninvited guest.
The village has grown accustomed to familiar faces coming and going. They rarely had foreign visitors so a stranger like Li Qiye attracted their attention. Everyone stared at him cautiously.
Li Qiye simply chuckled and leisurely walked on the small street towards the village’s temple. He didn’t get far before someone came to greet him. It was a muscular middle-aged man with a bright pair of eyes. It was clear that he has cultivated before, not just a regular fisherman.
“May I ask where you are from and where you are going?” He was quite polite.
“From a faraway place to over there.” Li Qiye chuckled and pointed towards the temple.
The middle-aged man’s expression changed. His smile became forced as he shook his head: “I’m sorry, that’s our ancestral shrine, not open to outsiders.”
“I know but I’m not an outsider. I want to meet the old man from your village, the real one.” To which Li Qiye responded.
The man’s eyes moved a bit. The smile became a stern expression.
“May I ask for your name?” He stared intensely at Li Qiye.
“Li Qiye.” Li Qiye calmly said.
“Li Qiye!” The old man was astonished while gauging him even more.
“Looks like you have heard of my name. Let me go see the old man now.” Li Qiye revealed a thick smile.
The old man hesitated a bit and didn’t know what to say.
