Chapter 1743

- Renovating Stone Village

“Uncle!”

A group of children swarmed over, paying their respects to Shi Ziling. Dazhuang, Ermeng and the others had met him before.

“Hello auntie!”

They similarly greeted Qin Yining.

This couple had came to Stone Village before. Back then, when Shi Hao’s life was in danger, nursing himself here, they had resided here for a long period of time.

“Haha, brother, sister, you two have come.”

Stone Village’s people were extremely welcoming. Shi Linhu, Shi Feijao and the others greeted them. As for the little fellas, they all became well behaved, seriously calling out ‘grandpa’ and ‘grandma’.

The couple were both happy, enthusiastically greeting everyone. At the same time, Qin Yining’s expression became complicated. She already became a grandma? Just how many years passed? She felt like she was still rather young!

Perhaps women were all like this, regardless of whether they were pretty or ordinary, they all hated time, loathed the flow of the years. Time was their greatest enemy.

“Hmm, isn’t this that…” Ermeng looked towards Yun Xi.

A group of people came over. They naturally saw the exceptional young lady with purple hair, no need to doubt her beauty. She was known as Celestial Clan’s number one beauty, her skin like fine jade, eyes clear like autumn limpid waters, figure soft and slender, truly exceptional.

“The fatty from back then!” Pihou directly shot his mouth, crying out, but soon afterwards, he covered his mouth.

In the past, Shi Hao had brought Yun Xi and also Huo Ling’er here. The clansmen had a deep impression of them. The two women were exceptional, different from the children who grew up in the great wilderness.

The village flower Huniu also came, standing nearby, her temperament directly opposite of Yun Xi’s, bold and valiant like a female leopard, while Yun Xi was like the flower of a nation.

Even though the villagers’ esthetic perception was severely distorted, viewing strength as most important, they still could sense that Yun Xi’s gentleness was even more moving than Huniu.

“Sister-in-law!”

Dazhuang, Ermeng, Pihou, and the others all adjusted themselves, greeting Yun Xi, their way of greeting the same, immediately making Yun Xi’s face flush red.

Even though her appearance was tranquil and otherworldly, this type of greeting still left her shocked. This… really was too direct and blunt.

“I’m not…” She quietly explained. Not only did her sparkling white face turn red, even her bright ears flushed.

When he saw this scene, Shi Hao was inwardly shocked. He thought of some old events. Back then, when he first met Yun Xi, they fought fiercely.

In the end, he was completely shameless, the two wrestling and rolling all over the ground. He bit the other side’s sparkling ear, too frivolous when he was young. The past events made him chuckle to himself.

“What? Still not a sister-in-law?” Dazhuang bumped his arm into Shi Hao, quietly asking.

“I have to say, little guy, Huniu waited many years for you back then. If you still aren’t going to get married, Huniu will regret marrying early.” Ermeng said.

Sure enough, Huniu stared over, her eyes penetrating!

“Ah… haha… this is my wife, in the future, call her Yun Xi, sister-in-law is fine as well.” When Shi Hao saw Huniu look over, he hurriedly pulled Yun Xi close.

Yun Xi’s face was red, quietly scolding, “What are you randomly spouting?!”

However, she didn’t struggle too much either. Regardless of whether she came to the lower realms to take care of Shi Hao, or if it was to give him face right now, she didn’t refute it too strongly.

“You really are his wife?” Huniu spoke out, her expression still sharp.

This girl had grown up, her figure sturdy. Normal adult men weren’t her opponent at all. She was one of Stone Village’s great experts.

“Of course, why wouldn’t she be?” Shi Hao pulled Yun Xi into his arms, placing an arm around her shoulders.

He inwardly wiped at his sweat.

“She doesn’t look sturdy at all, not pretty enough. Her legs are long enough though, but too skinny, arms also too soft, doesn’t look all that strong. Her face is too white, not a healthy color.” Huniu said.

When Yun Xi heard this, dark lines almost appeared on her forehead. Just what kind of standard was this?

“Exactly, she isn’t as healthy and beautiful as you, I just barely accepted her reluctantly, passable, just someone to keep me company in the future.” Shi Hao really had an urge to run right now.

Meanwhile, Yun Xi became completely speechless!

“Haha, let’s go back to Stone Village! It’s so rare to have so many people together, we’ll properly hold a celebration! All of you are good children!” Shi Linhu called out.

The old clan chief and the others waited at the village entrance. Shi Ziling and the others hurried forward, paying their respects to the clan chief, feeling sincere gratitude towards him. If it wasn’t for Shi Yunfeng, there wouldn’t be a Shi Hao today.

“Uncle, your uncle looks quite strong, its fur all golden like satin. Is this vicious beast for us to eat, or is it like the big black turtle, a mount?” The village’s youngsters asked.

“It’s probably quite delicious though.” Ermeng’s son, who looked around four or five also said naively.

On the side, the golden lion’s veins immediately popped. If it wasn’t for Shi Hao shooting it a look, it really would have opened its bloody mouth, let these little brats see just who it was who would eat who!

It was clear that Stone Village’s bloodline were all foodies. Otherwise, Shi Hao wouldn’t have been like this ever since he was little. This was a tradition!

Shi Hao roared with laughter. “Haha, we’ll just raise this lion for now. When it doesn’t listen well, I’ll roast it for you all, let you eat lion meat.”

“Oh! Okay!” The group of children cheered, meaning that they were waiting for lion meat to eat.

The golden lion really was so angry its teeth were aching. It was the glorious Fearless Lion, able to dominate the world as a king on the other side, yet in this small village, it was actually plotted against, others wanting to eat it!

“Uncle, can we ride it for a bit? I want to see if it is faster than Little White and the others.” There were children who asked with a hopeful expression.

“Of course!” Shi Hao nodded. Then, he warned the golden lion to behave.

A large group of children surrounded it. Ever since they found out it was Shi Hao’s mount, they were all extremely curious, wishing to see just how formidable the vicious beast their little uncle subdued was.

It was clear that the golden lion was furious. In a fit of rage, its entire body surged with multicolored light, sweeping up all of the children, bringing a large group of children with it as it rushed out.

Only a few people sat on its back, the others were all swept up by the light, following it, moving about like a streak of lightning.

“Moving this quickly, there won’t be any issues right?” The group of adults were stupefied.

“It’s fine!” Shi Hao shook his head.

Multicolored light scattered about. All types of delicacies were prepared in the village. Everyone sat together, chatting while preparing delicious food.

Shi Hao brought back too many good things. Unfortunately, there were many things the villagers couldn’t even use.

For example, the vicious beast meat were Self Release Realm experts’ true bodies, containing terrifying divine force essence, not many people in the lower realms dared eat such a thing.

However, they didn’t go to waste either. The old clan chief prepared several big cauldrons, letting Shi Hao stir a dao flame, helping refine it, turning it into soup. After it was diluted, it would be used to help the children strengthen to nourish the children’s bodies, strengthen their muscles and bones.

“Grandpa Chief, there’s no need to use it so sparingly. I prepared too many of these types of divine birds and fierce beasts! Not even just the children, you all won’t be able to finish them all even if everyone enjoyed them.” Shi Hao said.

He personally set his hands at it, watching over the others to prevent the divine force in the meat from being too rich for them to handle.

Even more people could only drink some diluted soup.

The prey the villagers brought back from the great wilderness was no longer that domineering. They could eat and drink as they wished, this place extremely lively.

Neighhh!

A house cry sounded, carrying some dragon sounds. A snow-white Heavenly Horse rubbed against Shi Hao, asking for wine to drink. It was precisely the leader of the unicorns, Little White.

When Shi Hao was seven, he had previously left Stone Village on its back, rushing through the great wilderness towards Stone Country.

Ever since this unicorn obtained Willow Deity’s baptism, its transformation was too great. Its body became snow-white and brilliant, its hair long, falling like a silver waterfall. Apart from this, all of its scales had been shed and regrown, becoming like dragon scales!

Its wings were powerful, stirring forth great winds when flapped.

No matter how he looked at it, Shi Hao felt like it was like a Heavenly Horse, not a unicorn anymore. It was the same as the Heavenly Horses that pulled the ruined immortal’s chariot!

In reality, the ruined immortal’s Heavenly Horses weren’t true bodies. Only afterwards did he learn that they were Heavenly Horse bones the ruined immortal found, revived through great magical force.

Now, true Heavenly Horses might have gone extinct, only if one went to Immortal Domain would they find them!

In the distance, wind and lightning hacked about, golden light pouring like a sea, rumbling and surging. A lion was running, returning from the heavens.

Stone Village’s people were alarmed, only now understanding just how terrifying that lion was. He was far above the divine level.

The golden lion descended. The children all got off, making pilipala noises, all of them like dumplings as they fell onto the village’s meadow, almost vomiting, retching there.

“Too… fast!”

“Just a bit of effort. We made a trip around Stone Country, visited every corner, even saw Uncle Qingfeng’s palace…” A child said with a deathly white expression, almost throwing up.

It was because the golden lion’s speed was too fast, a bit too hard for them to handle. Their legs were all a bit soft, their faces pale.

“Child, this lion is…” An elder asked.

“This is a race that could claim dominance as a king, a great disaster in Desolate Border.” Shi Hao began to tell them some things of the higher realm.

Starting from the topic of the golden lion, he began to tell him his experiences during the recent years.

Everyone’s attention was immediately seized. They felt nervous and excited, because Shi Hao’s experiences were too abundant. He was in danger many times, went through quite a few difficulties.

There were some teenage girls who began to cry when they heard of his troubles and difficulties.

However, Shi Hao didn’t speak about his own troubles in too much detail, just skimming over them, instead focusing on more interesting things.

“Ah, the higher realm not only has holy medicines, there are divine medicines, and even long life medicines?! These things are pretty much impossible to find in the lower realms!” The clansmen said with a sigh, yearning for it greatly.

“Here, I brought back quite a few good things. Haha, this is precisely a divine medicine!” As if Shi Hao was putting on a performance, he brought out a stalk of divine medicine. The entire village immediately became full of medicinal fragrance.

“Ah, this is a vine, only the roots left!”

“It is a divine medicine?”

Everyone was curious, crying out in shock at the same time.

“Of course, I’m a Void Sky Divine Vine.” The old medicine already spoke up. Divine medicines had spiritual consciousness, able to communicate. It was something Shi Hao brought back from the three thousand provinces’ battle of geniuses.

“There are more.” Shi Hao laughed, continuously bringing out several stalks of divine medicines. Before returning, he had spent quite the effort collecting them.

Immortal Academy gifted him one stalk, Sacred Academy another. Of course, there were the ones from back when he explored Immortal Ancient Battlefield and other places.

The villagers were stupefied. These were but divine medicines! Even without eating, just enjoying its fragrance would grant longevity, increase their lifespans.

Let alone the benefits to their cultivation. They were unimaginable!

At the very least, for the children and cultivators of their level, these were priceless divine treasures. Just these stalks alone were enough to remodel Stone Village into a great land of natural luck!

This was enough, let alone the fact that Shi Hao was still bringing out more of them. He had more!

“There is more, this is a Heavenly Deity Tree, this is really good stuff, can directly create a heavenly deity. I managed to dig out two of them.” Shi Hao said, his face full of smiles.

The villagers were stunned, already petrified from joy. He even had this type of heaven-defying thing?

“But our spiritual essence here is thin, a single stalk of divine medicine is enough to suck up all of the essence of the great wilderness. How are we supposed to live?” The old clan chief said.

“I brought back a special type of earth called All Life Earth, even the Burial Kings use this type of earth, there is absolutely no problem for nurturing divine medicines, so it’s perfect for growing medicine in the village.” Shi Hao said.
