Chapter 32: Devastation and Torment!
Lie Ru Yu felt like she was about to be driven mad!
It's not just the first meeting, but after setting out, Ye Huan has been torturing his nerves in all sorts of ways: to get to Jin Ye Valley where Su Tianhe is, it takes at least three days. On the first day when preparing for the trip, Ye Huan volunteered to go buy travel supplies, and Lie Fei naturally supported him unconditionally, but...
Damn it, why did he only bring back one tent!?
On a cold and bitter night, Lie Ru was squatting outside the tent, with only a small stove beside him emitting a pathetic temperature. Ye Huan and Lie Fei were sitting inside the tent, drinking wine and roasting meat, their voices even attracting a few wild wolves from the wilderness...
How dare you sleep in the same bed as my sister!
Come on, Fei'er is only twelve years old, I couldn't possibly do anything to a kid like that... It's you instead... If you're interested...
Elder sister, I'm going to live with Ye Huan from now on. This is what it means to be good brothers, to uphold righteousness, to share a bed together, the Oath of the Peach Garden!
Does it matter?
On the second day, Ye Huan even more outrageously brought a large group of wild beasts, of course, he was just holding roasted meat and walking around in circles, but when over a hundred beasts appeared before their eyes, he actually pulled Lie Fei'er up a big tree, munching on melon seeds while watching Lie Ruoyu fight to the death below to protect his sister.
No wonder, this female killer is really strong. A flash of sword light, and a large number of demon beasts fell to the ground, their heads severed. Even Adolf and Shiro had never seen such powerful soul force on Ye Huan's body before. But... what are you doing, Ye Huan? Don't throw that roasted meat over there! That's the nest of an adult Red-backed Fire Dragon Beast!!!
No choice, Lie Ruoyu, you threatened to kill me, I can only find ways to consume your physical strength, self-protection, do you understand?
I understand...
But why did you still insist on cooking me a barbecue in person with your self-proclaimed gentle attitude when I was exhausted?
My goodness, a man of the Yellow Emperor's descendants, actually cooks for his woman!?
Huh?
Ye Lao Da, are you pursuing my older sister? Do you need any information? Look here, look here, Fei Er's mouth...
Don't get any ideas, I'm not interested in female assassins!
I understand, normal men are always insincere... Do you want a one-night stand?
In short, this is a journey filled with devastation, a miserable experience that Lie Ru Yu would not want to recall even after many years.
On the third evening, a mountain valley that was full of golden trees in the midst of a cold winter finally appeared before their eyes. Lie Ruoxin let out a sigh of relief, while Ye Huan took stock of the scenery in the valley and muttered to herself... Ah, is Su Tianhe also an expert in psychology?
The valley isn't big, with only a patch of grass, a small stream, and a large area of golden leaf trees. However, under the cover of a large area of tree leaves, a stone staircase road leads to the distant mountains, with tall trees planted on both sides, bringing a psychological pressure to those who climb the mountain.
It's like Ye Huan hanging a five-meter-long photo in his living room.
Roughly counting, there are over 700 to 800 levels of stairs in the valley. Looking at the distant mountain's height, if one wants to climb up the stairs, they would have to climb over 10,000 levels. What's more, at the entrance of the small road, a stone tablet was erected: "Those who worship the god standing on the left shoulder are not allowed to carry weapons and are not allowed to use soul power."
This was a rule set by the old generation of Pope when he worshipped Su Tianhe more than 100 years ago. The stone monument even had the Pope's sacred triangle gold seal on it - you can imagine that this is just the old Pope expressing his respect for Su Tianhe, just like the Jianchi Pool on Wudang Mountain before the Great Calamity. However, with over 10,000 levels of stairs, how could one climb up without using soul power?
The faces of all three people turned somewhat pale.
"Sū Dà Bí Zi, what are you doing? Do you want me to crawl up step by step?"
Liefu's face turned red with anger, and she shouted loudly. With a flick of her cloak behind her back, she was about to fly up like wings.
Liejue grabbed her arm, "Fei'er, don't move around, we came to ask for Mr. Su's help, so we must follow the rules here, he wants us to walk, and we have to finish walking this stone step!"
As she spoke, she took off the long sword on her body, hid behind a large tree, and even changed the silver armor into a popular sportswear and tourist shoes that imitated the eve of the Great Disaster.
At this moment, Ye Huan suddenly felt a wave of dizziness.
On the first day of his rebirth, he knew that the Eastern Continent was a rebuilt civilization after a great disaster, and before that, there was an extremely brilliant technological civilization almost identical to Earth's, so he wasn't surprised when Lie Ruoyu put on sportswear and travel shoes.
However, separated by time and space, when he saw the familiar logo on the sportswear again, his heart still skipped a beat... Is this Earth thousands of years later?
Hard to say!
But it really is similar, at least in the military class of the Theological Academy, there are explanations of weapons from technological civilizations, from handguns, landmines, timed bombs, to tanks, missiles, and armored personnel carriers. These things are now called ancient martial arts, not many were left after the Great Calamity, but there are always a few - at least, Adolph used to have two Desert Eagles, large-caliber handguns.
There's also culture, didn't Liefei mention something about the Peach Garden Oath during camping? And Adolf's full name, and Mount Horeb, a place that religious followers wouldn't ignore...
Ye Huan shook her head and threw out the chaotic thoughts.
What does it matter what kind of world it is? The key is to spread the teachings and create the world's largest religion.
Liefu followed her sister up the mountain, and Ye Huan was bored, so she opened the Wind Wing that had already grown to one meter long and practiced a few moves in the valley. To be honest, he was really depressed now. The Wind Wing was already one meter long, even without the mother soul, his own strength had reached a pretty good height, but there was nowhere to test it!
Just at this helpless waiting, when night fell, Lie Jia sisters finally came back from the mountain.
Liu Ru was panting, her exercise clothes drenched in sweat. However, she saw Ye Huan waving at her from across the way, gritted her teeth, and walked over with a cold face. Moreover, she strictly adhered to the rules of Jin Ye Valley, not even using her soul power to recover her physical strength.
Liefu was no longer so honest, her small face pale with exhaustion. As soon as she left the mountain road, she immediately pulled out a... baby bottle from behind her waist!
She ate the milk with big mouth, and her little face regained its blood color in just a few seconds. Then, she handed the bottle to Ye Huan, "Ye Lao Da, come have two sips too? My grandfather personally concocted this Blood Milk Elixir, it's good for strengthening the body, healing injuries, restoring energy, and even enlarging breasts and tonifying yang... my older sister often drinks it!"
Ye Huan originally wanted to take a bite, but... Breasts! ? He quickly shook his head, "How was it? Have you seen Su Tianhe?"
If he saw him, he would ask about Su Tianhe's situation and come up with a plan to deceive Su Tianhe. However, Lie Feier's eyes turned red, and she choked back tears as she angrily scolded: "Don't mention it, Su Big Nose is not a good person. When we went there, he didn't even open the door, but instead threw out a note from the window, saying... saying..."
"What he said, no one can understand!"
Liejieyu took over the conversation, her face even looked a bit unsightly, shaking the paper strip in her hand, "This is simply a string of ghost stories!"
