Chapter 66: Keep Waiting
He drew a longbow on a large tree and pointed the tip of the arrow at the Black Bear Spirit’s eyes. In his heart, he silently chanted, “God bless!” He held his breath and shot the arrow. In Yang Jian’s eyes, the arrow pierced through the dense foliage with an unstoppable momentum. It was about to hit the black bear.
Xiong Ji heard a piercing sound from afar. The round bear’s ears moved slightly. Hearing the sound, he tilted his head slightly and dodged it perfectly.
Xiong Ji looked at the wooden arrow that was deeply embedded in the soil and thought to himself, “Who is this? Is he looking down on me, just this wooden arrow, and that ordinary iron arrowhead? Even if it really hit me, it wouldn’t even be able to cut through my skin. There’s no one capable left in the He family? Isn’t senior sister overestimating them a little too much?”
Seeing that his attack had missed, Yang Jian quickly shot out a few more arrows, all aimed at the black bear’s eyes. Xiong Ji dodged a few arrows in a row and was also annoyed. Was this person playing with him? Damn it! Xiong Ji roared in anger. It was very frightening. Yu Sisi felt that something was wrong and jumped down from Xiong Ji’s shoulder.
Before Yu Sisi could say anything, the person who shot the arrows had already jumped down from the tree. It was a robust man dressed as a hunter. He looked to be in his thirties and had a resolute look on his face. This hunter was looking at them with a solemn and determined expression.
This time, even Xiong Ji felt that something was wrong. He was just an ordinary hunter! But why would an ordinary hunter provoke them? The two of them had stayed on the mountain with Jiang Yun for a while and had seen many strange things. They thought that it was normal for them to keep a low profile when they went down the mountain. However, in the eyes of ordinary people, no one would sit on a magical beast. Magical beasts were almost untamable. The more powerful a magical beast was, the more it looked down on humans, not to mention letting humans sit on its body.
“Young lady, run!” Yang Jian shouted at Yu Sisi and gripped the longbow in his hand tightly. His face was filled with determination. Although Yang Jian was not some decent character, he was definitely not someone who would leave a person to die! This poor girl was kidnapped by the black bear. If he didn’t make a move, he afraid that she would immediately die in the mouth of the bear. However, from the reaction of the Black Bear Spirit when it dodged his arrow just now, he thought that its cultivation level must be not low. It was likely that he would die today.
Even if he really died because of this, he wouldn’t regret it. He only felt guilty towards his family. His son hadn’t grown up enough to take on the responsibilities of a family. He was still a kid who loved to cry.
Not to mention Yu Sisi, even Xiong Ji was stunned by Yang Jian’s shout.
“Run away? Me?” Yu Sisi was puzzled and thought, “Could this person not sense that my cultivation was on par with Xiong Ji’s? How could I be so easily taken hostage by someone.” Xiong Ji was even more confused. That was a young lady? Where was she? Why didn’t he see her? The truth was out. Xiong Ji did not treat Yu Sisi as a woman at all. He also didn’t think that he, who was over three meters tall in the eyes of others, could pose a threat to Yu Sisi.
“Go! Leave me alone!” Yang Jian saw that the girl didn’t move at all and thought that she was too scared to move and was worried about him.
The scared girl, Yu Sisi was speechless. So did the savage and man-eating black bear, Xiong Ji.
Alright, so he was really just an ordinary hunter.
“Listen to my explanation. Actually, I wasn’t kidnap by this bear…”
“Miss, you don’t have to say anything. I know that you don’t want me to be implicated. I’m not that kind of person!” Before Yu Sisi could explain herself, she was stopped by Yang Jian. Yu Sisi felt a little stifled.
Seeing that Yang Jian was about to draw his bow and arrow to shoot the Xiong Ji again, she immediately flew to Yang Jian’s side and broke his arrow with her bare hands, “Enough.”
Yang Jian was shocked. This girl is so strong!
“Save it. You can’t hurt me. Shoot with a hammer!” Xiong Ji said unhappily.
He heard the black bear spoke in human language, and it was the deep voice of a middle-aged man. Yang Jian thought, “Holy sh*t! Oh my god! The bear spoke in human language.”
Yang Jian raised his finger and pointed at Yu Sisi, then at Xiong Ji, who curled his lips. He was so shocked that he couldn’t speak. Ordinary people who lived in remote areas rarely encountered high-level cultivators or high-level magical beasts. Magical beasts that could speak human language were legendary existences to them.
Xiong Ji simply transformed into his human form, and Yang Jian was so scared that he fainted.
“… Why are you scaring people?” Yu Sisi looked at Yang Jian, who had fainted on the ground, and was helpless. She couldn’t just leave him there. What if he was eaten by a wild beast later?
“He woke up with a splash of water.” Xiong Ji responded.
“How am I supposed to get water? I’m not Master.”
That’s right. Xiong Ji was used to Jiang Yun’s magical powers. As long as he wanted it, he had everything. But when he was out, he had to rely on himself. Hence, Xiong Ji suggested, “Why don’t I use urine to wake him up?”
“What?!” Yu Sisi was stunned by Xiong Ji’s bold idea. She thought to herself, “Is this something a magical beast that has lived for hundreds of years can come up with?! Or are you only three years old?!!”
Yu Sisi’s shocked and disdainful gaze was too obvious. Xiong Ji was a little embarrassed. He turned his head away and tried to change the topic, “The ground seems to be shaking.”
Yu Sisi did not want to say anything. She planned to bring the hunter to the small town at the foot of the mountain. This hunter was probably a resident at the foot of the mountain, so she would send him straight home.
“You carry him. We’ll go down the mountain to the town.” Xiong Ji unwillingly carried the man on his shoulder and ran down the mountain one step behind Yu Sisi.
In the blink of an eye, they had reached the edge of the small town. After taking a few more steps, the two of them stopped at the same time, the ground was shaking.
Yu Sisi released her spiritual sense to check in the direction of the shaking. A group of wild boars? There were about a thousand of them, but there were dozens of wild boars that had already gained intelligence and become low-level magical beasts mixed in. They seemed to have been frightened, and they whimpered as they ran in this direction. They had to pass through this small town.
Most of the people in the small town were ordinary people with no cultivation. This beast tide, which was nothing more than a small one for Yu Sisi and Xiong Ji, was a disaster for the villagers.
“Stop them and protect the people!” Yu Sisi didn’t hesitate at all. She unsheathed her Gu Tong Immortal Sword, wanting to disperse this beast tide.
“But, with such a big move, when the He family comes…” Xiong Ji was a little hesitant. In his opinion, his master’s orders were much more important than the residents of this town, not to mention that these were just ordinary people without any cultivation. Xiong Ji was not a human after all. He was as cruel to the fate of the human race as a wild beast.
“I was once just like these ordinary people.” Facing the sudden disaster, the villagers were weak and helpless. Yu Sisi seemed to be able to understand Xiong Ji’s thoughts. She gave him a look and went to meet the group of wild boars alone.
Xiong Ji was shocked and a little ashamed. He quickly threw Yang Jian aside and fought together.
The two of them fought non-stop for nearly three hours, defending a small town with thousands of people that no one cared about. The two of them fought seriously. It was unknown when, but almost all the people in the small town had come. They stood not far away and quietly watched the two unfamiliar cultivators fight for their safety.
