Chapter 35 - Stupefied (1/2)
Everyone was petrified and speechless; that was simply too shocking.
“Ah….”
Jiao Peng’s arms lightly trembled, and it felt as if he collided against a Hou. He felt a fracturing pain. He absolutely did not think that a child still feeding on milk was almost able to knock him to the ground.
Everyone was shocked. Was this really a desolate village? It was most likely a hidden clan of ancient descent!
Many people were held back by their fear. If it was true, then a hidden clan that lived in seclusion in the middle of the mountains would be too terrifying. Although their population was low, each of them must be terrifying experts.
Those two beautiful young maidens walked forward with a glitter in their eyes. A smile hung on their faces as their lustering white foreheads shone with intelligence. One of the young maidens asked “Little brother, how old are you?”
“I’m almost four years old.” The little guy’s big round eyes showed a clear expression as he answered. At the same time he quickly wiped away the milk stain at the corner of his mouth to cover it up more.
What? A baby who’s not even four years old? This was too shocking, and everyone lost their cool as they breathed in cold air.
Jiao Peng’s eyes shot out beams of like a wild beast. His expression was terrible and he wanted to immediately activate his clan’s strongest precious technique to beat the little guy down into the ground with a single palm.
“Again!”He did not use the Jiao clan’s precious technique and still used his corporeal strength. He charged forth like a violent gale as his fist whizzed through the air. The trees in the vicinity violently trembled and all the leaves and foliage fell to the ground.
Like huge beasts making movements within the boundless mountain range, he brought with him a violent gust of wind. Jiao Peng’s momentum was astonishing as he pounced towards the little guy.
“Big bro, why are you trying to bully me?” The little guy did not understand as his big eyes shined with purity and innocence. He stared at Jiao Peng, extended his arms and swatted in front of him.
Hong!
This time, everyone clearly saw this cute child used only the strength of his flesh and did not incorporate any mysterious power or precious techniques and simply just pushed outwards. However, his power was incredible and his strength was ferocious. It left people speechless. With a Weng sound, he pushed Jiao Peng back.
The genius from the Great Floating Pool was continuously forced backwards, and the earth cracked with each step he took. His arms spasmed as he groaned in pain.
“So strong!” Jiao Peng clenched his teeth and exposed an incomprehensible expression. This time, he truly lost face because he was dominated by a baby still feeding on milk. His face burnt up with fury.
“Haha….” Lei Mingyuan was over six years old. He took joy in seeing Jiao Peng in pain as he swayed back and forth in laughter.
Aside from his, the others did not have a trace of laugher. If one considered Jiao Peng a genius, then what was this child?
“This child’s potential is frightening. If he participated in the great competitions within huge clans, then he might actually…” A few people casually discussed.
The children shook as they heard everything, and they kept looking at the little guy. These types of geniuses were destined to participate in that terrifying competition. Sooner or later, they would certainly meet.
“Hai……” Purple Mountain Clan’s elder Zishan Shou sighed. He had a high standing within his family and had great influence. Right now, he still had a kind expression as he said “Child, what’s this village called.”
“Stone Village.” The little guy replied with a crisp tone.
“Can you let us inside to rest a while and get a drink of water?” Zishan Hou asked in an amiable manner.
Right now, Jiao Peng was already restrained by that middle-aged man from the Great Floating Pool. The experts from all the other villages also walked forward since they wanted to clearly explore this strange village
“So adorable.” The two young maidens as pretty as fairies stood beside the little guy for a long time. They adored him as they pinched his little cheeks.
“Sisters, what are you doing?” Little Shi Hao evaded.
“Can you bring us into the village for a look?” The two young maidens asked.
“Little guy, what happened?” The adults from the village appeared and approached the forest.
Finally, those from the Purple Mountain Clan, Great Floating Pool and the other experts all entered the village. They observed every detail and paid especially close attention to the old willow tree.
However, the burnt black willow tree did not have a trace of movement. Even though there were people moving around secretly, it never paid attention to them.
After entering the village, these experts began to have some doubt. These stone houses and the limestone streets all seemed very ordinary and did not possess any extraordinary attributes. It was no different from any other villages within the desolate lands.
“Yi, these cauldrons are ancient. Many of these had already experienced years of hardship.” Zishan Shou came from an aristocratic territory and had a high standing within his clan. Naturally, he was rather experienced.
The few cauldrons in the middle of the village held an ancient history. Simple and natural carvings of birds, beasts, fish and bugs attracted many people’s attention.
“These cauldrons seem out of the ordinary, what do you do with these normally?” The middle-aged man from the Great Floating Pool, Jiao Cang asked.
“Oh, we use these to train our strength.”Er Meng replied as picked up a thousand jin cauldron over his head.
Everyone’s hearts skipped. An eight or nine year old child lifted up a thousand jin cauldron with such ease. Even though it didn’t mean much within a large clan, but for a little mountain village, it was a great deal.
Additionally, none of the children here looked simple.
