he gunfire echoing from the street below.I want to pounce.Regardless of life, disregarding family and loved ones.I just want to sink into the black flesh and limbs with my child.Despair filled my whol...Lifting up that cloud of dust was a monstrous, enormous beast.

It's perfectly normal to find exotic flowers and plants, as well as rare and peculiar beasts, in this desolate wasteland brought to life.

But this shouldn't affect my inspection of agricultural products, should it A lot of people are starving and waiting to eat!

In the past, if I saw danger, I would run away. But now it's different, isn't it

"Wanchen, what is this thing! Can you get rid of it, don't let it trample your beans!"

Mu Wanchen couldn't help but laugh, "I've already claimed this piece of no man's land as my own."

He stood in front of me, squinting his eyes and said with some uncertainty: "… It seems like a horse."

"What is a rebuttal"

"On the mountains of Zhongqu, there are beasts shaped like horses with white bodies and black tails, one horn, tiger teeth and claws, roaring like drums. Their name is Bo, they eat tigers and leopards, and can fight against armies..." He frowned slightly: "This Bo still has an owner."

Is it owned

I held onto his arm and peered out.

That beast's body resembled a white horse, with a black tail and a single horn on its head. However, its four legs were incredibly thick and it was not agile. Beneath the sturdy legs were massive claws, giving it a formidable appearance.

This beast truly had a master, its head adorned with a bit like that of a warhorse, restraining its sharp fangs and teeth.

It had a man sitting on its back, and when he saw us looking at him, he was also stunned.

"Who are you" The man seemed to be looking at a rare and exotic beast.

Speaking like that, so archaic, must be the "original inhabitants" of this place.

Mu Wanchen frowned slightly, didn't answer directly, but coldly reminded: "Control your beasts, don't ruin this place!"

"Nonsense! I took great care, how could it be damaged"

He wore a fur coat, yet bared his arms, looking quite formidable. Such a person generally doesn't have deep schemes — at least not as complex and opaque as the Shaman King before me.

"You still say you didn't trample anything... Look at how many soybean plants you've flattened on your way here!" I pointed to the edge of the soybean field.

The man turned back to look, how could he possibly run with such a large monster without harming the small plants He said in annoyance, "What about it! I discovered this place first!"

Well well, here comes the land grabber.

I tugged on Mu Wanchen's arm, signaling him to be wary of the other party and not let them take over.

Mu Wanchen gave me a good-natured smile.

What's so funny!

Now the most important thing is food. Just getting through one day at a time is enough. Let's harvest these ripe soybeans first and take them back. We have a stone mill in the courtyard, right We can grind soy milk, soybean dregs, and even sprout some beans. That should keep us going for a while.

If we find other food, or materials in the mountains, perhaps we could even make oil, ferment things, and have seasonings!

Of course, the prerequisite is that all this land belongs to us, and we don't let anyone else take it.

The man riding on the mule looked at us with suspicion for a while, then frowned and said, "Where do you come from No one has been here for a long time. Why are you staying here"

“Our city is right here, this land belongs to us. Who are you, asking so many questions Leave our territory at once and don't trample our beans!” I replied curtly.

Upon hearing this, he was instantly furious – truly furious! His hair stood on end, blown about by the force of his anger.

"Little woman, do you dare to yell at me! You're looking for death!"

His mount, the strange beast of a warhorse, suddenly wrenched its head free from the reins, baring sharp teeth and roaring at me.

Mù Wǎn chén frowned, and suddenly a surge of aura erupted from his body.

The ground beneath them trembled slightly, as if a giant jellyfish had suddenly unfolded, and dust billowed up a hundred feet away!

I hid on his back, too nervous to speak.

Beyond a hundred zhang, there is smoke and dust, but around us there are only dandelion fluff gently drifting down.

His eyes were rimmed with dragon scales like tear tracks.

I momentarily thought he was crying.

The clouds hang in the sky like mountains falling over.

But there was not a breath of wind around.

Mu Wanchen's just-now momentum caused smoke and dust to billow for hundreds of meters. I stood in the center of the smoke and dust, but there was no dust around me, only a single dandelion floating about.

I thought I was seeing things.

How could Mu Wanchen be crying

He stood firm and steadfast, silent as a mountain peak.

The dragon markings at the corner of his eyes seemed to be coated in a sheen like that of a shell.

It seems that such changes only occur when his power is activated.

The wind died down.

The clouds in the sky, however, grew thicker and denser.

The oppressive feeling was growing heavier and heavier.

Mu Wanchen slightly opened his eyes. The ferocious beast in front of him, who had been roaring just moments ago, was now subdued, even letting out whimpers of fear.

I was slightly surprised. Mu Wanchen rarely, rarely issued such sharp warnings.

... that's right, in the past there were loyal guards in Mount Wuzhang City who didn't need him to show up directly for many things. A guard just standing in front of him would be enough to intimidate people.

Now, he alone has to protect so many people.

He glanced at me briefly.

I reached out and grasped his wrist.

Actually, I don't want him to fight with people. Fighting always carries the risk of getting hurt, and... I think he shouldn't do that.

His eyes were like stars, his bearing as lofty as a crane soaring above the clouds. Such a person, humbling himself to protect his subjects, I can't help but feel a pang of sympathy for him.

Mu Wanchen gave me a consoling glance and then coldly swept his gaze across the opposite side.

The chimera's front hoof kicked empty, and it let out a roar—

I thought it was going to pounce, but then its front hooves hit the ground with a thud and then, then it bent over.

It lowered its head and neck, crawling at the feet of Mu Wanchen.

This sudden movement caused the man on its back to pitch forward and backward, falling off its back.

“Oh, oh!” He rolled half a circle on the ground, looking at us warily.

"...Who are you! Why, why do you reek of divine presence" He took a step back, putting distance between himself and us, his eyes wide as he stared at Mu Wanchen.

"Pfft... Divine aura" I tilted my head and looked at Mu Wanchen.

He gave me a faint smile.

With that smile, the clouds suspended in the sky immediately swirled and dispersed.

The smoke settled, and a gentle breeze blew.

The dragon scale mark just now, a flash of brilliance, vanished as if a dream.

"...The products here are needed by my tribe. If you also need them, we can negotiate. But if you disrespect my wife, there's nothing more to say, understand" Mu Wanchen said in a deep voice.

He didn't speak in a threatening tone, but his eyes held not the slightest hint of jest. His seriousness sent shivers down my spine.

The man fell down a bit awkwardly, his arrogance diminished by half. He mumbled: "…I didn't know anyone was here A while ago when I found this place, there was no one at all…"

"Damn, I didn't know you could speak colloquialisms! Why were you using all those archaic words like 'thou' and 'thee' just now" I asked.

He angrily brushed the dust off his body and huffed, "This young master thought he would make a name for himself, but you all came out of nowhere and stole—"

"Listen clearly, what robbery are you talking about This was ours to begin with!"

"This is unclaimed!"

"First come, first served!"

"I got here first!"

"No evidence, who would believe! You say first come first served Then I say according to regional principle, this belongs to our city!" I argued with him.

He was taken aback: “You really live around here”

"Nonsense..."

He suspiciously rubbed his chin: "Isn't this area a place of ruin It's said that the Ghost Domain once stayed here, and a city was swallowed by the Ghost Domain, merging with it. Later, due to mirage migration, that city came into daylight again..."

What？！ation.Even ghosts, gods, demons, and monsters know how to hide themselves. Those with high cultivation understand how to set up formations. As long as the internal workings of the formation sway or ti...
