“Emperor Yan, that old fellow, has started making arrangements outside. Shouldn't you be preparing too?”
Chi You blinked, then sat down next to the ancestor of the Iron-Eating Beast, saying,
“Arrangements? I want to, but what do you want me to use for arrangements? With my eighty-one brothers, we can only chop people…”
“How come I feel like your brain is getting worse after waking up? How can you be so clueless right now? What’s the use of just counting on our few brats? Can’t you just go out and wander around like Emperor Yan?”
Chi You punched the ancestor of the Iron-Eating Beast on the head:
“Are you stupid? If I go out, won’t lightning strike me? Do you think I’m like Emperor Yan, who has accumulated immense merit by saving countless lives, so no heavenly tribulations befall him, and the entire heavens have to show him respect?”
“I’ve killed countless people, damn it. If I go out, I can’t say for sure about anything else, but at the very least, the power of the heavenly tribulations will be several times stronger than normal.”
The ancestor of the Iron-Eating Beast got up from the ground, shaking his head, still a bit dazed from Chi You’s punch.
He then raised his bear paw and lunged at Chi You: “You son of a bitch, you dare hit me? Don’t you know I’m a national treasure of Huaxia? Believe it or not, I’ll find someone to cripple you.”
Half an hour later, the ancestor of the Iron-Eating Beast, sporting two even heavier dark circles and a noticeably plumper face, sat on the ground, glaring angrily at Chi You.
Chi You, whose face was also covered in paw prints and who was missing a front tooth, glared back at the ancestor of the Iron-Eating Beast:
“You dog-like bear, your moves are really damn heavy.”
Perhaps it was due to his missing tooth, but Chi You’s speech was a bit slurred.
Just as the ancestor of the Iron-Eating Beast was about to speak, a turtle shell in his storage space began to vibrate.
The ancestor of the Iron-Eating Beast quickly took out the turtle shell. In a moment, a projection of Xuan Lao Si, the Great Emperor of Xuanwu, appeared before them.
“What are you two doing, Old Tie? Damn, why have you gotten fatter again? When did you get a buzz cut? You look really hideous.”
He then looked at Chi You, who was by his side, and said,
“Oh, damn, isn’t this Chi You the brother who’s fierce and speaks little? Where’s your tooth? What’s going on, are you two playing cosplay?”
“Are you two impersonating ‘Tian Can Di Que’ or beggars?”
Chi You and the ancestor of the Iron-Eating Beast were both enraged by Xuan Lao Si’s obnoxious demeanor:
“You son of a bitch, Xuan Lao Si, if you have something sensible to say, say it. If not, shut your damn mouth, or I’ll stew you in a pot.” Su Dan Novel Network
Xuan Lao Si swayed his snake-like tail and said, “Are you trying to scare me? Haven’t you heard that a turtle is too big to be stewed in one pot? You two think you’re so capable.”
“Alright, don’t wait any longer. Emperor Yan will be here to see you soon. He’ll explain things in detail, then Old Tie, come find me. We’ll call Ying Long and Little Kunpeng, and we, the Huaxia F4, are taking on a big job this time…”
Before Xuan Lao Si could finish, Emperor Yan walked out of the void with a smile, saying,
“Oh damn, have you two run into some bandits? How did you end up like this?”
Emperor Yan looked at Chi You and the ancestor of the Iron-Eating Beast in shock.
“Who would dare rob them? They are themselves one of the biggest bandit leaders in the entire heavens.”
Then Xuan Lao Si said to Emperor Yan, “Old Ancestor, please explain the rest to these two dullards, and then have Old Tie come find me.”
Emperor Yan nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll handle the rest. You go tend to your business.”
After watching Xuan Lao Si disappear, Emperor Yan looked at Chi You and the ancestor of the Iron-Eating Beast and said with annoyance,
“You two have really outdone yourselves. You even got into a fight. Now you’ve embarrassed yourselves even in front of the Sacred Beast clan.”
The ancestor of the Iron-Eating Beast said nonchalantly,
“Old man, what are you worried about? At worst, one of us is thick-skinned, and the other is brainless.”
“At best, one of us isn't human, and the other is unreasonable. Do you think dignity matters to us? If no one wanted it, I’d sell it by the pound.”
Chi You looked at the ancestor of the Iron-Eating Beast and said in agreement, “Makes sense, Old Tie.”
Emperor Yan was almost driven to death by these two rascals: “I’m really a fool for bothering with you two dullards.”
“I’ll get straight to the point. You two figure out the rest yourselves. First, Old Xuanwu has advanced to the Ancestral level, and is now the First Generation Xuanwu Ancestor.”
“The second matter is that Old Xuanwu, my father Shao Dian, Old Ancestor of the Nether Crow Ming Yuan, and the Serpent Ancestor Tun Tian, the four of them have clashed with the Ancestors of the God and Demon races in the Sea of Destiny.”
“Originally, we planned for Old Xuanwu and Zhu Jiuyin to guard outside while my father and the other two went in to fight. But the God and Demon races sent six Ancestors, so Old Xuanwu had to go in to help. Now, only one Ancestor-level being, Zhu Jiuyin, and a Half-Ancestor, the Dragon Queen, are outside.”
“We’ve discussed it, and we plan to have Old Tie, Ying Long, Xuan Lao Si, Little Kunpeng, and Emperor Yao go to the outer perimeter of the Sea of Destiny to guard, and also keep an eye on…”
Before Emperor Yan could finish, the ancestor of the Iron-Eating Beast interjected,
“Keep an eye on Zhu Jiuyin and the Dragon Queen? Don’t worry. Although Zhu Jiuyin pursued the Dragon Queen back then, they are both so old now, there shouldn’t be any more trouble. Everyone, don’t be nervous.”
Emperor Yan instantly saw stars and felt dizzy:
“Nervous about your ass! I want you to guard the outer perimeter of the Sea of Destiny, observe the evolution of the rules of destiny, so you have a chance to advance to the Ancestral level, and also keep an eye on the people from the God and Demon races. If you have a chance, kill a few more.”
The ancestor of the Iron-Eating Beast nodded and said, “Damn, you should have said that earlier. If you had, I would have understood long ago. Look at this misunderstanding.”
Chi You also looked at Emperor Yan in confusion and said, “Emperor Yan, why is that kid Emperor Yao going out now? His strength doesn’t seem to be as strong as mine.”
Emperor Yan nodded and said, “My father dotes on this kid. After waking him up in the sealed Shan Hai Jing, he’s been by his side. After this war of ten thousand races, Huaxia will have a few more Half-Ancestors.”
