Chapter 590: Is this retribution?

Translator: G.o.dBrandy Editor: Kurisu

The natives immediately got anxious.

Back then, the master of the island still could be cla.s.sified as a human. But the master of the island they saw right now had already transcended the limits of humanity!

In front of this new and scary version of the master of the island, the 'peerless martial technique' the lot of them were secretly practicing was just a joke.

Even if each of them could reach the level where they could create explosions in the air with just their fists, wouldn't they be still hung upside down and beaten in front of the monstrous master of the island?

However, before the natives could recover from the shocking scene they had just witnessed, something even scarier happened.

The master of the island took a talisman paper out of nowhere and threw it toward the sky.

”Divine talisman, I command you to summon the divine lightning!”

The yellow talisman paper flew into the sky and sank into the layer of clouds.

In the next moment, a ma.s.s of golden lightning streaked across the horizon and headed toward the master of the island! Every streak of lightning carried great destructive power. Some of the natives that didn't have too much courage squatted down in fear and held their heads with their hands.

Was that lightning? The master of the island could unexpectedly summon lightning as well!

Heavens, was he an immortal?

But what was the master of the island planning to do? Summoning lightning and striking himself? Wasn't this a bit over the top?

Just as the natives were in confusion, the master of the island raised his hand.

Afterward, he started to move his arms and punch toward the lightning he had summoned, shattering it to pieces and dispersing it.

You heard it right; he literally shattered the lightning to pieces!

Earlier, the natives felt that their knees had gone soft, but after witnessing this scene, they just couldn't bear it anymore and directly knelt on the ground.

After the master of the island shattered to pieces all the streaks of lightning that filled the sky, he turned his head toward the natives and said in a grave tone, ”Why are the lot of you gathered here? Have you already finished your homework?”

The natives looked at each other and didn't know how to reply to this question.

But right at this time, the tall and big native had a clever idea and immediately replied, ”Master of the island, we heard a huge explosion just now. Therefore, we came over to take a look out of curiosity.”

While he was at it, he didn't forget to do some bootlicking as well. ”The level the technique of the master of the island has reached is absolutely outstanding, unparalleled in the world!”

”Heh.” Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman faintly smiled and said, ”Right, earlier, I heard someone shout that they wanted to rebel against a cruel demon. What was that about?”

”Cruel demon? What's that? We don't know anything about this matter,” the tall and big native said with a serious expression on his face.

”You guys don't know anything about it? In that case, I must have misheard since there was a lot of noise while I was practicing.” Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman calmly nodded his head.

All the natives immediately heaved a huge sigh of relief. It would be absolutely great if they could get away with it without receiving any punishment.

But right at this time, Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman also asked, ”Right, I taught you the ❮Book of Odes❯ today. Do you remember the content? The ❮Book of Odes❯ has quite a number of rare Chinese characters. Therefore, I was wondering whether you guys had some problems while studying it.”

The tall and big native patted his chest and said, ”Absolutely no problems. None whatsoever. We really liked studying the ❮Book of Odes❯!”

The natives in the rear also said after him, ”The sentences in the ❮Book of Odes❯ are exquisite. 'Chirp! Chirp! Cry the fish hawks on an islet in the river. A mild-mannered good girl; a fine match for the gentleman.' How exquisite!”

”Today, we discussed this topic all along. We are hoping for the master of the island to teach us more about the ❮Book of Odes❯!”

”Yes, that's it! We like stuff like the ❮Book of Odes❯ the most!”

”I really wish I could study the ❮Book of Odes❯ all day long!”

The natives talked all at once and patted their chests, expressing their love and appreciation for the ❮Book of Odes❯. They even strongly demanded the master of the island to teach them more about the book.

Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman silently nodded and said, ”I didn't think you would like the ❮Book of Odes❯ so much!”

After pausing for a moment, he made up his mind and added, ”Such being the case, we'll slowly complete the study of the ❮Book of Odes❯ in the next days!”

The natives really wanted to cry tears of blood. However, they still forced themselves to look cheerful.

But right at this time, Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman decided to throw some more salt on their wounds. ”Actually, I was preparing to say goodbye to you guys this evening. After all, my original wish was to have you guys become literate and capable of reading and writing. Since my duty was complete, I was planning to stop your lessons after briefly introducing you to the ❮Book of Odes❯. I had even prepared a sumptuous banquet for our last day together.

But since you guys liked the ❮Book of Odes❯ so much, I decided to stay until I completely teach you the book! Ladies and gentlemen, let's spend some more happy time together!”

All the natives were dumbfounded.

”Sob, sob, sob~” Next, all the natives started to cry, looking especially aggrieved.

Senior Seven Lives Talisman evilly smiled and said, ”Heh, look at how moved you are. Very well, I'll do my best to teach you the ❮Book of Odes❯ in that case. But you need to mentally prepare yourselves because I'll be even stricter!”

”Sob, sob, sob~” The natives felt like crying until losing consciousness.

If they hadn't come out this evening to seek death, the demon would have quietly left the island on his own...!!!

At this time, they felt like crying their hearts out. They were so sad that their tears flowed down like the Niagara Falls.

Senior Seven Lives Talisman continued, ”Good, good. It's late already; you should go back and take a rest. Right, finish your homework a bit earlier and be in the cla.s.s tomorrow at 5 AM. Since my time is not much, we have to finish studying the ❮Book of Odes❯ within half a month. Thereupon... you will come to cla.s.s a bit earlier, return home a little later, and have a bit more of homework to do at home! We'll finish studying the ❮Book of Odes❯ in no time!”

”Sob, sob, sob~” Several natives hugged a big tree and cried rivers.
