Lin Fan looked at this kid who was struggling in the forest and could not help but chuckle out.
By the looks of it, this kid was pretty familiar with this place. Only, Lin Fan did not know where the final destination was.
Not long after, when Lin Fan caught sight of the scenery before him, he stopped in his tracks as well.
To think that there would be a village within this mountain range!
And this village seemed to be shrouded by some sort of energy, causing its aura to be retracted and unable to leak out.
Perhaps, this was the way to ensure safety.
At the entrance of the village, an elderly man was surveying his surroundings. That elderly face of his was filled with worry, as though he was waiting for something.
"Grandpa …!" Just then, the kid who was being followed by Lin Fan ran out from the bushes towards the elderly man.
"What's going on?" Lin Fan looked at the elderly man. He had a pair of wings on his back. Evidently, he was from the wings race. How could he be the grandpa of the Fox race?
"Xuan'er, where have you been? How could you run around outside? " The elderly man from the wings race asked sternly. But looking at how the kid was fine, he could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
"Grandpa, don't be angry. Xuan'er knows her wrongs." The kid came to the side of the elderly man and lowered his head.
"Look at your face! To think that you would get so dirty after just one trip out! It's dangerous out there! Don't go out in the future!" The elderly man from the wings race said.
"Yes, I know, grandpa." Xuan'er nodded her head. Suddenly, she thought of something, "Grandpa, I bumped into someone outside."
"Huh?" The moment the elderly man from the wings race heard this, his face changed, "Ancient race?"
"No, he looked exactly like me, except that he had no tail. He even asked me about adults, but I didn't tell him." Xuan'er giggled.
"He didn't follow me?" The face of the elderly man from the wings race was solemn. He had a bad feeling about this. This place was extremely far away. Why would anyone appear in this region?
"Nope. That fella was really dumb. Silly …!" Xuan'er chuckled, feeling that she was really smart.
At this moment, Lin Fan, who had been in Stealth mode the entire time, was stunned. He was clearly exasperated. To think that this little thing would call him dumb! He couldn't tolerate that!
"Little friend, it's not right for you to speak ill of others behind their backs." Right at this moment, a voice suddenly rang out.
Xuan Er was stunned. The old man's expression changed, and he immediately pulled Xuan Ling behind him. "Who is it?"
"Everyone, don't be nervous. I mean you no harm." It was then that Lin Fan's figure appeared before the two of them.
"I clearly dodged you! How could you …?" When Xuan'er saw this person, she couldn't believe her eyes. She had clearly shaken him off, so why was he still following her?
"Hehe, little friend, you are still too inexperienced." Lin Fan chuckled out. He then looked at the old man and cupped his fists, "I am Lin Fan of the Human Race from the Xuanhuang World. I have just ascended to the Ancient Saint World."
Looking at how the old man from the Wings race was extremely wary of him, Lin Fan decided to report his own identity. He didn't want the other party to continue suspecting him.
At the same time, Lin Fan did not know just how dangerous the Ancient Saint World was for these people to be acting so cautiously.
Indeed, the moment Lin Fan reported his identity, the old man from the Wings race let down his guard. However, he was still wary of Lin Fan.
"Human?" The old man from the Wings race recalled slowly, as though he was reminiscing about something. Suddenly, his face changed, "Please enter …!"
"Eh …?" Lin Fan was stunned. He couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Grandpa, he bullied me just now!" Looking at how her grandpa had suddenly turned friendly towards this fella, Xuan'er grumbled a little.
"Xuan'er, don't be rude …!" The old man from the Wings race patted Xuan'er's head gently.
"Little friend, I didn't bully you at all!" Lin Fan looked at the little kid and chuckled out.
Looking at Lin Fan, Xuan'er snorted out angrily and ran into the village.
"This kid …!" The old man from the Wings race shook his head helplessly.
...
Lin Fan then followed the old man into the village.
This village wasn't too big. Towards a stranger like Lin Fan, all the people who lived here let out a look of surprise.
As for Lin Fan, he was bewildered by the people in this village as well.
There were people from all different worlds and races. Just what in the world was this place?
Lin Fan then followed the old man into a simple looking house.
At the same time, Lin Fan found out that this old man was the village chief of this place. This village had existed for a long time, but no one had ever known about it.
Within the house, Lin Fan received the tea that the village chief had passed to him and nodded his head gently, "Village chief, what is this place you're talking about?"
Looking at Lin Fan, the village chief sighed helplessly, "This is a place that exists to hide from the strife of the outside world."
"Village chief, you let your guard down when you heard that I'm a human. Could it be that you're related to the human race?" Right now, Lin Fan wanted to find the human race. Looking at how friendly this village chief was towards the human race, Lin Fan assumed that the village chief must have some sort of connection with the human race.
"No. You're the first human I've ever met." The village chief shook his head.
"Then why …?" Lin Fan asked curiously.
"10,000 years ago, the ancient race was extremely strong, and all the races in the world were in dire straits. Back then, no one dared to stand up for them, nor did they dare to fight back. Eventually, the five powerful beings of the human race stood up and fought with one of the eight most powerful beings of the ancient race in a life and death battle …" The village chief explained slowly.
Lin Fan's heart leaped with joy. To think that the names of the Heavenly Emperor Yuan and the others would be this famous. At the same time, the things that they had done had the status of the human race elevated in the hearts of some people.
At the same time, Lin Fan understood that the reason why there were people from all different races in this village was because they wanted to hide from the slaughter of the ancient race and those traitors who had submitted to the ancient race.
Lin Fan wanted to know more about this place. However, the village chief had never left this place before. Therefore, he did not know much about this place.
To Lin Fan, this place was extremely secluded in the mountains. Furthermore, there were many ancient beasts around as well.
Raising his strength in this place was something that was extremely stable.
As long as he could raise his strength, all of this would no longer be an issue.
Dignity, freedom … All of these were built upon the foundation of absolute power.
Without power, all of these were just empty words.
"Village chief, I'd like to stay here for a period of time. Once the time is up, I'll leave this place on my own." Lin Fan said after some consideration.
"What? You're still going out? It's safe here, but the outside world is extremely scary. I hope that you can stay here for the rest of your life, and not go out to bear the brunt of those horrendous things. "The village chief replied.
"Horrendous isn't scary at all. I'm here with the hopes of the human race on my shoulders. I'm here to give them a new lease of hope." Lin Fan replied resolutely.
Looking at Lin Fan, the village chief nodded his head eventually.
"Thank you." Lin Fan thanked him gratefully.
