Chapter 1 The Statue of Hermes

Looking at the massive statue before him, Joe Elm's pupils shrank.

He had seen Hermes himself, and there was no doubt that the statue before him was Hermes.

But how could a statue of Hermes appear in this strange valley?

Moreover, in front of the statue of Hermes was an altar, and there were even many fresh offerings on the altar.

This made Joe Elm even more puzzled. Who would run to this godforsaken place to worship a god?

Just as Joe Elm was wondering, a soft sound whooshed through the air, and an extremely sharp arrow shot out from the shadows, grazing Joe Elm's skin.

"Who are you? I warn you, stay away from Lord Hermes' statue!"

A delicate shout rang out, and Joe Elm looked in the direction of the sound, discovering that the speaker was a tall girl.

She held a wooden longbow in her hand, and she wasn't wearing any clothes, only a few animal skins that barely covered her vital areas.

Her long hair was tied up high, and her delicate face was painted with a colorful totem, just like a warrior walking out of a primitive tribe.

"A native of Tianhe Star?"

Joe Elm couldn't help but be taken aback. He really didn't expect that there would be living people in the depths of this valley.

After all, the mist was extremely powerful, deducting one or two thousand health points per second. If it wasn't Joe Elm but another Saint-level cultivator, they would probably kick the bucket after a short while.

"Speak quickly! Who are you? Why aren't you afraid of the strange mist in God's Envoy Valley? If you don't speak, I won't be polite!"

The girl pulled back her longbow, aiming it at Joe Elm, the animal skins on her body almost unable to conceal her explosive figure.

Looking at the girl with the longbow in front of him, Joe Elm couldn't help but think of an old friend. The flowers resemble each other year after year, but the people are different year after year!

Then he revealed a kind smile, and with a flash, he appeared behind the girl.

"Who do you think you're talking to, you little wench? Being impolite to me? I'll give it to you!"

Joe Elm stretched out his large hand and grabbed the girl's slender ankle, then swung her hard, and the girl's body slammed into the mountain wall with a bang, creating an S-shaped crater.

The girl's eyes were seeing stars from the blow, and before she could recover, Joe Elm grabbed her ankle and lifted her upside down, questioning her.

"Speak, what are your measurements? Who are you? What is this place?"

"My... my name is Kuma, this is God's Envoy Valley, measurements... what do you mean by measurements?"

The girl answered Joe Elm's question tremblingly, afraid that Joe Elm would hit her again.

"It's okay if you don't know your measurements, I'll help you measure them when I have time." Joe Elm waved his hand dismissively.

But Kuma, who had a terrified expression, suddenly focused her eyes. Taking advantage of Joe Elm's carelessness, she took out a white bone whistle from her chest and blew it hard.

The sharp whistle echoed through God's Envoy Valley in bursts.

"You're finished! The people of my Tianshang tribe are nearby!"

After blowing the whistle, Kuma's face clearly had a bit more confidence.

Her Tianshang tribe was backed by God's Envoy Valley, and the strange mist in God's Envoy Valley was the best natural barrier. The terrain could be described as easy to defend and difficult to attack, so the Tianshang tribe was also developing extremely powerfully.

"Is that so?"

Joe Elm revealed a cold smile. Who's finished is not certain.

He wasn't familiar with Tianhe Star at all, and he didn't know where to look for the Tianhe beast. This so-called Tianshang tribe could just become his tool.

Just as Joe Elm was thinking this, a violent aura swept in from the side of the valley.

Judging from this aura, the person who came was clearly a true demigod-level expert!

"Crap?"

Joe Elm's eyes widened. Wasn't it said that there were only five demigod-level cultivators among all the natives on Tianhe Star? Was his luck that bad? He ran into one as soon as he came in?

"Grandpa Ku'erxun! I'm here!" Kuma shouted excitedly.

Soon, an old man also draped in animal skins rushed over. Although his hair was white, his body was full of solid, dark muscles.

Immediately afterward, countless people draped in animal skins also surrounded him from all directions of the valley, surrounding Joe Elm.

These people were all members of the Tianshang tribe.

"How dare you treat my granddaughter like this? Do you know who I am? Quickly release my granddaughter!" Ku'erxun roared at Joe Elm, his eyes full of dangerous light.

As one of the five major tribes of Tianhe Star, their Tianshang tribe had never been afraid of anyone.

Joe Elm originally wanted to directly attack the Tianshang tribe, but since the Tianshang tribe had a demigod-level cultivator, he prepared to outwit them.

He frowned and retorted with a displeased expression.

"Then do you know who I am? Have you always been so brave?"

Ku'erxun glanced at Joe Elm with some suspicion, and asked.

"Who are you?"

"Who am I? Hmph!"

Joe Elm snorted coldly, not speaking, but simply placed his gaze on the statue of Hermes.

At this time, he could be sure that the offerings on the altar in front of the statue must have been placed by this Tianshang tribe.

Ku'erxun followed Joe Elm's gaze and discovered that he was looking at the statue of Hermes. The surprise and shock in his eyes were even greater.

"Aren't you curious? Why am I only at the fourth level of the Saint Realm, yet I'm not afraid of the strange mist and can walk here!" Joe Elm continued while the iron was hot.

Being reminded by Joe Elm, Ku'erxun's eyes became even more suspicious.

"What exactly do you want to say?" Ku'erxun's voice became even louder, resounding throughout God's Envoy Valley.

But Joe Elm revealed a smile. People only try to embolden themselves by speaking loudly when they lack confidence.

"Don't you understand? I am the person sent by Lord Hermes to save you!" Joe Elm's words revealed a strong sense of confidence.

"Nonsense! My Tianshang tribe is one of the five major tribes of Tianhe Star, when did we need to be saved?" Ku'erxun scolded.

"Oh? It's fine if these people with inferior strength don't know, but you, a demigod-level cultivator who can travel the starry sky, have you really not noticed that Tianhe Star has been completely surrounded?" Joe Elm sneered.

Ku'erxun's mind shook wildly. He naturally knew that a large number of starships were parked outside Tianhe Star.

But he didn't have a very good solution. When Tianhe Star was first discovered by those forces, the experts of the five major tribes of Tianhe Star had actually joined forces to resist, but they were no match for those top forces at all.

Therefore, these natives of Tianhe Star could only choose to resign themselves to fate.

"What you said are just your words!"

Ku'erxun's face was full of struggle.

"Lord Hermes disappeared a long time ago! Don't think I don't know! You say you were sent by Lord Hermes to save us, can you provide evidence?"

"Evidence? Heh."

Joe Elm casually threw Kuma back to Ku'erxun, then folded his arms with a sneer.

"Since you want evidence, then today I will make you ignorant fools submit willingly! Feel it carefully, the divine might of Lord Hermes!"

With a flash of light, a soft, close-fitting garment appeared in Joe Elm's hand. It was a pair of white briefs.

At the same time, a solemn aura belonging to a god spread out!

This aura could not be faked. Only a true divine object could be stained with the solemnity and sanctity of a god!

Ku'erxun only felt it for a moment before his entire body froze. Then, with tears streaming down his face, he directly knelt on the ground.

"It really is the aura of a god! It is the aura of Lord Hermes! Lord Hermes has not abandoned us, he has sent someone to save us!"
