Double Cultivation
wild Pig Tribe Hunter
After spending a few minutes examining the scroll, Tang Lingxi put down the scroll in her hand and sighed, "It's a waste of time. 500 years of research and all they got was speculation."
"I didn't expect much, but I thought there was nothing.." Qiuyue also shook his head.
"i don't blame them for not understanding something that is beyond their comprehension" Su Yang said.
A few minutes later, Qin Liangyu entered the hut and said, "Honored guests, our hunters have returned from their journey, and they have brought back spiritual flesh. Do you want to join our party tonight?"
"Spiritual meat, huh?" Su Yang raised his eyebrows.
The flesh of powerful spiritual beings was often treated as a delicacy in the cultivation world, as the flesh provided spiritual energy for cultivators, allowing them to become stronger just by eating. However, to the Pig Tribe, spiritual meat was the same as ordinary food, as they hunted animals for a living.
"If you don't mind accepting me, I'd like to join this party." Su Yang nodded. He wanted to experience spiritual food on his own in this kind of place.
"i will join as well," Qiuyue said.
"Good!" Qin Liangyu immediately showed enthusiasm and spoke in an excited tone, "We won't let you down!"
"By the way, did the scroll help?" Qin Liangyu continued.
"Unfortunately there is not." Su Yang shook his head.
"That's.I'm sorry for not being more useful.." she quickly became sad.
"Don't worry about that" Su Yang said.
A while later, Qin Liangyu led them out.
Once they were outside, they could see about 50 to 60 extremely large men standing near the entrance with half of them carrying the corpses of spiritual beasts, and most of them exuded the aura of the Earth Spirit Realm with some being in the Heavenly Spirit Realm.
"i've already realized this, but the people here .. their cultivation base is quite impressive for people living under these conditions." Said Su Yang. "Even most of the women here were in the True Spirit Realm."
Qiuyue nodded and said, "Their dangerous life force requires them to hunt spiritual beasts almost every day, and they eat spiritual meat almost every meal, so it was not strange for them to have such a cultivation base. In fact, compared to the Eastern Continent, the Southern Continent as a whole was stronger. "
"Hm…"
Meanwhile, the natives were also paying attention to Su Yang and his group.
"Who are the three people standing there? Their skin is as pale as a ghost!" One of them asked with a shocked expression, his gaze on the two beautiful women by Su Yang's side.
It's not just one of them. All the men there looked at Qiuyue and Tang Lingxi with wide eyes in disbelief, almost like this was the first time they had seen a woman as beautiful as both of them.
And since they had been hunting outside when Qiuyue arrived, they were unaware of their existence.
"They are our Esteemed Guests, especially those with silver hair and eyes – she is the Goddess of legend. If it wasn't for him, the Tiger Tribe would have destroyed this place and made us their slaves" said one of the girls.
"What ?! That tiger bastard attacked us ?!" Those people were furious at this news.
"Unacceptable! This is a declaration of war against our Pig Tribe!"
"Why did they suddenly attack us after more than a decade of peace?" One of them looked hard.
"It must be the Dragon Tribe! They've been getting along with each other lately!"
"If it's a war they want, they'll get a war!"
The natives began to shout with war cries, causing the air to tremble.
"Hey! Stop yelling like a savage!" Qin Liangyu suddenly approached them and spoke, "you are disturbing our esteemed guests!"
"Chief Qin!" The natives instantly stopped shouting and bowed to him respectfully.
"Now drop his flesh and honor our Savior and Honorable Guest!" Qin Liangyu exuded a different aura at the moment, not looking like a shy woman a few minutes ago.
"Yes, Chief!"
All the native men dropped their meat and weapons before approaching Su Yang and his group.
"We Pig Tribe Hunters pay their respects to the Goddess and Honoured Guest!" They bow to them. "Thank you for saving our Pig Tribe! If it wasn't for you, the Tiger Tribe would have burned down this entire place and kidnapped our people!"
"Don't call me your Goddess!" Qiuyue frowned.
"W-We deeply apologize if we offended you, Savior!" The natives immediately started sweating when they sensed the huge aura emanating from Qiuyue. They had fought countless dangerous spiritual beasts in their lives, but this was the first time they felt true fear. It was like they met the God of Death.
"Forgetit." Qiuyue sighed.
Some time later, the Pig Tribe began to prepare a festival.
During this time, Qin Liangyu approached Su Yang and asked him, "Honored Guest, do you need anything now?"
Su Yang pondered for a moment before saying, "Actually, I exist."
And he continued, "My name is Su Yang. I will feel more comfortable if you can start calling me that from now on."
"But you are the Savior." Qin Liangyu hesitated.
Su Yang did not say anything more and only showed a gentle smile to her.
"…"
Qin Liangyu suddenly fell silent. A moment later, he nodded with a timid smile.
"Thank you," Su Yang said, and continued. "By the way, tell me more about your tribe. I'm quite interested in the function of this place, because I'm from a very distant place."
Qin Liangyu nodded and began to explain to him the lifestyle of the Pig Tribe. "As you can see, more than two-thirds of our tribal population is female. This is because it is the duty of men to scavenge for food outside while women take care of the house and other necessities, and hunting wild animals is a dangerous job no matter how strong you are. When hunters leave, they usually don't come back sooner than three days, and tragedies tend to happen when you live in a neighborhood like this. "
"Sources of power and food are scarce in this place, which is why tribes tend to attack other tribes and steal their food."
"Our Pig Tribe is one of the stronger tribes around this area so we usually don't have to worry about being attacked. However, the Tiger Tribe, a slightly less powerful tribe, had been good friends with the Dragon Tribe, another powerful tribe. Since the hunters were not available at the time, if not for the Savior, the Tiger Tribe would have already destroyed and plundered this place, and we would all be treated as slaves in their settlement. " qin Liangyu explained.
"That's it.." Su Yang nodded.
A while later, Su Yang asked, "Why don't you leave some of your soldiers here? It is not wise to leave your entire settlement vulnerable whenever you have to hunt for food."
"Of course, we don't usually send all our soldiers to hunt. However, the wild has become increasingly dangerous these days, and if we don't send everyone, our casualties will double, even triple. then we can't lose more soldiers." Qin Liangyu sighed, feeling despair.
