Chapter 21: What a Great Name!

  `

  (Update 2)

  There's still the third watch at night!

  Then, Oakes told a touching and beautiful story of a dwarf who dared to defy the brutal authority and bravely resisted oppression.

  All of Ox's testimony was translated into human language, and the general content of this story is as follows:

  This territory near the wilderness belongs to a large earth spirit tribe, which is also one of the larger ones among the many earth spirit tribes in Ye Huo Yuan. It has a population of over 1,000 people. Such a scale is already considered a rare and prosperous clan among the earth spirit clans in Ye Huo Yuan. With a population base of over 1,000 people, excluding the old, weak, sick, and women and children, there are also more than 200 earth spirit warriors.

  And this Princess Oakes was born in this earth spirit tribe.

  At the same time, according to its statement, it is a rare handsome man among the earth spirits in this earth spirit tribe.

  "Alright, at this point, Xia Ya burst out laughing without any sympathy for a while, and laughed scornfully saying 'You're also considered a handsome man? The aesthetic standards of your dwarves are really freaking weird!'"

  When Xia Ya finished speaking, however, she found Ke Liang Chong staring at her with an ambiguous gaze that seemed to be smiling yet not quite smiling...

  Okay, story continues...

  Ox's tragedy lies in its being born too handsome and beautiful — by earthly standards.

  Of course, this is not the root cause. If it's just because he's handsome, then in normal circumstances, his greatest tragedy would be marrying a few good wives and facing the scorching heat of family wars every day.

  However, its greatest misfortune lies in the fact that it was born into this powerful Dwarf clan. And the current leader of this Dwarf clan is a brave and skilled warrior with exceptional leadership abilities, but he has one annoying habit:

  Sexual orientation is different from ordinary people!

  It is said that when the lord was choosing a wife, he picked through all the young women in the clan and didn't find one to his liking.

  Finally when the lord saw the handsome Ox, he suddenly had a thunderbolt of desire, and the flames of passion burst forth in his chest...

  Then, Oakes tragedy...

  It's not hard to imagine that such things are not uncommon in the human world. Among the nobility, there are many who have a fondness for male love and a special preference for pederasty. It's not rare for human nobles to keep several boy toys or openly engage in homosexual relationships, and it's even said that the current crown prince of the Byzantine Empire is quite fond of this sort of thing...

  But! But! But! However, they are earth spirits!!!!

  When humans engage in romantic relationships, they often make them elegant and beautifully sad.

  But when such things happen to Di Zhi, it's really speechless...

  And...the Earth Spirit doesn't have this kind of tradition anyway!

  Ox was a handsome earth spirit man, under the strong power of the lord, he was forcibly taken as the lord's queen, and suffered miserable treatment. However, he himself was an earth spirit who yearned for freedom and had normal sexual orientation, so after enduring a period of miserable treatment, he finally took his own step to resist that endless tragic fate: escape!

  Would rather abandon the identity of a legitimate tribal resident, would rather wander in the wilderness as a black household drifter, would rather give up the life of a princess with brocade clothes and jade food, living in the wilderness without a fixed abode.

  For the earth spirit, being a wanderer is very dangerous. On the Wildfire Plains, the earth spirit is weak and small, and without relying on a tribe, living alone in the wilderness is completely insecure.

  But Ox chooses this path, from this point of view, it is a very dignified earth spirit.

  "No wonder... When I saw those earthworm warriors earlier, it buried its head. It was worried that those guys would see its appearance." The poor worm sighed.

  Xia Ya also sighed. Although he had never been very sympathetic, at this moment, he couldn't help but feel some pity for the earth spirit. He even became more gentle towards Oxus, untying the ropes on its body and even giving it a piece of wolf meat.

  Oakes was grateful and soon told Shaya everything he knew that was valuable about the surrounding area.

  The nearby territory belongs to the "Kijin Lord", and if you continue northeast from here, it will take about a day's journey to leave the tribe's sphere of influence. After passing through, there is a river that dries up in winter. Following the riverbed northward, except for this earth spirit tribe in front of us, there are no other large tribes on this northern route. There are only some small tribes with a scale of two or three hundred people scattered along the way, and besides, there are also some wandering earth spirit groups that form bandit gangs, with a maximum size of around ten to twenty people.

  To walk along that river all the way to the end, it will take about three days, and only then can you be considered to have left the territory of the earth spirit. Further north is the northern part of the Wildfire Plains.

  A great mountain in the northern region is a natural barrier on the north side of Wildfire Prairie, and crossing the mountain can overlook the Odin Empire.

  Xia Ya's heart skipped a beat with excitement... That great mountain might just be where the dragon is hiding!

  Moreover, to repay Xia Ya for the piece of wolf meat, Wang Fei also personally drew a rough map. Several goblin tribes that might be encountered on the way north were all marked on the map.

  Xia Ya was overjoyed and indicated that they could release this respectable Princess Wang.

  "In fact, you can go back to the tribe, wanderer, sooner or later become a Soso." Xia Ya sighed: "And I broke your leg, ah......you, foot, dead base! Soso, not good!"

  Ox's eyes widened immediately, pointing at his own foot that was broken by Xia Ya: "I, Suo Suo, foot, dead!"

  Then she turned around and patted her butt: "I, Wang Fei, ass, die!"

  When he turned back, his face was filled with a painful expression: "I, Suo Suo, am willing! The princess is not willing!" As if still unsatisfied, he added another sentence: "Feet, die base, endure, willing! Butt, die base, endure, not willing!"

  Xia Ya and Ke Lian Chong collapsed again...

  …………

  After a while, Xia Ya felt a sense of respect for the earth spirit leader he had never met: "What is the name of that earth spirit leader?"

  "Heaven's attack, strongest, earth essence, leader!"

  Attack? Uh...

  Xia Ya was taken aback and sincerely praised: "What a great name! It's really a good name! A person is like their name, a person is like their name!!"

  The wretched queen then provided a piece of news that made Xia Ya's eyes shine.

  Just a few days ago, there was a group of extremely powerful humans who were also heading north in this area. The nearby goblin tribe had tried to take advantage of those humans before, but they ended up suffering a bit.

  "Could it be those dragon-hunting magicians?" Xia Ya was overjoyed, but when she asked further, the queen's answer wasn't what she had expected.

  According to Ox, the humans who ventured into the wilderness were only a few dozen in number, not magicians, but all fully armed knights, with spare horses, well-equipped, and on the first day of arriving in the wilderness, they directly slaughtered a small group of goblins, and it is said that they also captured several wandering goblin slaves, then headed north.

  It seems... those humans are searching for something important.

  The poor worm stole a glance at Xia Ya.
