Chapter 97 Myth (1/2)

After admiring the Sword Demon Mountain for a while, the prince moved his gaze down.

He immediately walked toward the village chief and clasped his hands: ”Apologies for barging in on your village, but we would like to you the outside of your village for our men to rest for a while.”

The village chief looked at the prince as he also clasped his hands: ”Don't worry, our village is always open, but you wouldn't be able to fit everyone inside.”

Some of the loyal subordinates of the prince felt angered, the village chief didn't even bow their heads, they were about to rebuke, yet, Sun Meng prevented them immediately.

With a glare, Sun Meng whispered; 'The prince didn't even take it into consideration, yet, all of you are ready to devour them.'

All those experts bowed, yet, they still wanted to deal with the villagers in some way, but the Prince's next words explained the reason to them indirectly.

”Leave that problem to us, my subordinates can handle such an easy task without a sweat.” He paused for a bit before continuing.

”We are the ones coming in without an invitation, that's the least we could do.”

The prince smiled, he then started to look around and couldn't help but wonder.

[Most of the villagers are female.]

The village chief noticed his gaze and immediately spoke: ”The males of the village are always hunting, some of them wouldn't manage to return sometimes.”

The village chief only said those words, yet, everyone can already imagine their situation.

The prince nodded his head and replied: ”Don't worry, we will secure your food for as long as we are here.”

”Then, I can only thank you.” The village chief replied as all of them immediately entered the village.

One of the females asked the village chief: ”Chief, why does sh-”

But before she could finish her words, the village chief shook his head and replied: ”We do not meddle into the affairs of others.”

”Yes.” Everyone nodded as they went back to each of their chores.

Meanwhile, the prince called Sun Meng and spoke: ”Gather all your trusted men, divide them into four groups and make all of them search for demonic beasts as our source of food, also, discreetly eliminate the other spies.”

”Yes.” Sun Meng nodded as he and his men immediately departed.

The prince immediately went and entered the village to follow the village chief.

”Oh, do you have anything else?” As soon as the village chief spotted the prince, he immediately asked.

The Prince shook his head and replied: ”Nothing, I would just like to go around the Sword Demon Mountain, I've always admired it from the stories passed down every generation.”

The prince paused as he looked at the chief and spoke: ”Apologies for the late introduction, my name is Si Shen”

The village chief nodded and replied: ”My name is Ma Dong.”

He spoke with pride, the prince became shocked, the confidence and pride that emitted from the old man astounded even he, who has grown around arrogant and confident people, he had never seen someone like this before.

”There seemed to be a story behind your name.” Si Shen spoke with a smile on his lips.

With a smile on his face, Ma Dong nodded as he continued walking; ”This village, has a history of so many years, the first village chief of this village is named Sui Meina, a woman that fell in love with the Sword Demon Mountain tale's expert's subordinate.”

Si Shen opened his eyes widely as he spoke: ”That... I wish to know more.”

The illustrious expression on Si Shen vanished as he looked at Ma Dong in anticipation.

Seeing this, Ma Dong couldn't help but shook his head. He now looks like an expert showing off his magnificence to a child.

The both of them continued walking as Ma Dong spoke: ”That expert's subordinate fell deeply in love with the first village chief, who's at that time was no one but a normal lady.

The Expert's subordinate thought her all sorts of way in how to cultivate, then, after a few whiles, through the effort of that expert's subordinate, the two of them fell in love.”
