"Please take a seat," He Yiming said as he waved his hand casually.
Although there was an expert at the peak of the Houtian realm among them, He Yiming didn't feel any joy or sadness. He didn't care at all.
With the two sets of Xiantian Battle Skills in his hands, he had absolute confidence that he wouldn't be at a disadvantage even if he had a falling out with them.
The middle-aged man's eyes emitted a strange light. After looking at He Yiming, he was startled at first, then at a loss. Finally, he calmed down and said with a smile, "Thank you, little brother."
After saying that, he flicked his sleeves in front of He Yiming and imitated He Yiming's actions without a care for his image. He sat down with his butt on the ground.
The young men and attendants beside him looked at him in disbelief, their eyes filled with disbelief. They had followed him for so many years, but this was the first time they saw him act so recklessly.
"I am Xie Nuanyi, and this is my son, Hsieh Ming-chin. May I know how to address you, little brother?" The middle-aged man asked with a smile.
The young man and the attendants were shocked. If they were just surprised before, they were now horrified.
They all knew what kind of person the man in front of them was, so when they saw him being so respectful to this young man and even talking to him with an equal attitude, the shock in their hearts was no small matter.
He Yiming smiled and said without hesitation, "He Yiming."
He had been running in the forest for three months. With his speed, who knew where he had run to? However, he was definitely not in Taicang County, so he had no scruples.
Xie Nuanyi's smile didn't change, but his mind was spinning. He couldn't remember where he had heard of such a young expert.
He Yiming pointed at the fox bear on the ground and said, "Everyone, please do it yourselves. No need to be polite."
Xie Nuanyi laughed and said, "Thank you for your kindness. Let's do it together."
He Yiming's words were like an order. The two of them immediately walked out. Their movements were a hundred times more skillful than He Yiming's. They held sharp knives in their hands and quickly pulled off the entire bear's skin. Then, they cut the meat into pieces, sprinkled some seasoning, and slowly roasted it in the volcano. In just a moment, it had already emitted a thick and alluring fragrance.
He Yiming's nose twitched as he felt ashamed in his heart.
Look at his movements. That's what you call a professional. Then, he looked at the piece of meat in his hand. It was like a rock, and he found it hard to swallow.
Xie Nuanyi smiled and took out a large gourd. She said, "Little brother, I am very grateful for your hospitality. Here is some good wine. If you don't mind, you can try it."
He Yiming's eyes lit up. He was ashamed to say that he had heard of the wine before, but the rules of the manor were very strict. Under the age of eighteen, even he was not allowed to drink. In general, he was an obedient child, and he had never tasted wine before.
He Yiming hesitated for a moment, then took the gourd from Xie Nuanyi's hand and opened the lid. Immediately, a fragrance filled the air. His nose twitched twice, and he said pretentiously, "Good wine."
Then, he raised his head and took a big gulp.
As soon as the wine entered his mouth, he felt a burning sensation, as if he was being cut by a knife. As soon as he drank it, his chest and abdomen seemed to be on fire.
He Yiming blinked his eyes twice, only to feel a surge of anger rushing up, almost spitting it out on the spot.
Fortunately, his internal strength was very profound. It circulated in his body and immediately dispelled the uncomfortable feeling.
He Yiming let out a long sigh. The reason why he dared to drink was because of his inner strength. No matter what kind of poison it was, it was impossible for him to be poisoned without him knowing. As long as he was prepared, the poison would definitely be forced out in an instant.
Although the feeling in his body was strange, he did not feel poisoned at all. Instead, it was similar to what his elder brother said about the first time he drank wine, so he was relieved.
However, the wine was too strong. It was so strong that he almost could not bear it.
Xie Nuanyi watched in surprise as He Yiming gulped down the wine. Then, he forced himself to swallow. Finally, he frowned, and his face turned red.
He could not help but ask curiously, "Little brother He, is this your first time drinking wine?"
He Yiming blushed slightly and said, "Hehe, I drink it occasionally, but the taste is really not good. Mr. Xie, you should enjoy it yourself."
Xie Nuanyi laughed loudly and took the gourd from He Yiming's hand.
Hsieh Ming-chin and the others all showed a trace of disdain.
Xie Nuanyi's gourd of wine was very expensive in the Fire Crow Country. It was worth more than gold. Looking at He Yiming's appearance, they knew that he did not know what was good for him. He probably did not come from a powerful family.
However, Xie Nuanyi looked very friendly to him. Naturally, these people did not dare to be presumptuous.
After a while, the two servants had finished roasting the first batch of meat and handed it over respectfully. Xie Nuanyi picked up a skewer and handed one to He Yiming. She said, "Little brother, this is the fox bear that you hunted. I'm offering it to you. I don't know if you can give me this face."
He Yiming praised her in his heart. This person had already seen the tasteless meat in his hand. That was why she said that on purpose. It was indeed comfortable to talk to this person.
He Yiming took the barbecued meat casually and thanked her. Then, he ate without hesitation.
He took a bite and almost swallowed his tongue. He had been out for three months. Although he did not starve, he had been living like an ascetic monk. He could not control himself when he suddenly had a chance to enjoy delicious food.
Xie Nuanyi's face was full of smiles. After He Yiming finished eating, she handed him another skewer very naturally.
The six servants had all been sent out by him. Some were collecting firewood, some were slicing the meat, some were skewering the branches, and some were in charge of the barbecue. Everyone had their own division of labor, and like an assembly line, the barbecued meat was continuously sent up.
Xie Nuanyi, her father, and He Yiming ate heartily. They actually ate 20% of the big fox bear. Xie Nuanyi and her father only stopped when He Yiming was satisfied.
Under Xie Nuanyi's signal, the six servants began to eat. However, two of them were still responsible for keeping watch. They were so conscientious that no one could find fault with them.
"Brother He, Brother He, this is the wilderness. What are you doing here?" Xie Nuanyi asked casually.
He Yiming did not hide it. He said, "I heard that there are spirit beasts in the forest, so I want to hunt one."
"Hunt a spirit beast?" Xie Nuanyi's face was full of surprise, but Hsieh Ming-chin was a little impatient. His eyes flashed, and he seemed to be a little more hostile to He Yiming.
He Yiming did not even look in Xie Nuanyi's direction. Instead, he said to himself, "That's right. However, I've been in the forest for a few months, and I haven't seen a single spirit beast."
Xie Nuanyi shook her head and said, "Brother He, Brother He, aren't you too reckless to enter the forest like this?"
He Yiming smiled indifferently. "I am a little reckless, but even if I can't find a spirit beast, I can treat it as a form of training. At the very least, I feel that I've gained a lot from traveling alone for a few months. "
Xie Nuanyi was stunned. She thought for a moment, then looked at Hsieh Ming-chin beside her and nodded as if she understood something.
Xie Nuanyi looked at He Yiming seriously and said, "Brother He, Brother He, you're not from the Fire Crow Kingdom, right?"
"The Fire Crow Kingdom?" He Yiming was surprised. "This is no longer Tian Luo Kingdom's territory?"
He thought to himself, 'No wonder these people are dressed so strangely. They're from the Fire Crow Kingdom. But where is the Fire Crow Kingdom? '
Xie Nuanyi smiled and said, "So you're really from Tian Luo Kingdom. That's right, this is indeed the Fire Crow Kingdom's territory."
He did not sound surprised at all. It was clear that he had recognized He Yiming's background from his clothes.
He Yiming smiled awkwardly and said, "Sir Xie, I entered the mountain range from Tian Luo Kingdom. I've been traveling through the forest for a few months, and I accidentally came here. I wonder how far this place is from Tian Luo."
Xie Nuanyi pondered for a moment and said, "The Fire Crow Kingdom is more than 500 kilometers away from Tian Luo on the official road. Even if you walk 15 kilometers every day, you'll need one or two months to arrive. Moreover, there's Jin Linguo in between. However, there aren't any roads in the forest. Brother He and Brother He were able to come here, so they must have traveled a few rounds in the forest to arrive here in three months. "
He Yiming nodded heavily. When he entered the forest, he did not have a fixed direction. He had just walked aimlessly. It could be considered fate that brought him here.
He Yiming looked at Xie Nuanyi and the others, then went straight to the point. "Sir Xie, I think your Xie Family can be considered a big aristocratic family in the Fire Crow Kingdom."
Xie Nuanyi did not say anything, but Hsieh Ming-chin and the servants showed a hint of pride.
"We can't be considered a big aristocratic family. We're just a little famous," Xie Nuanyi said slowly.
He Yiming said loudly, "Sir Xie, you're too polite. May I ask why Sir Xie has come to the wilderness?"
Xie Nuanyi pondered for a moment, then immediately said, "I'm here for the same reason as Brother He and Brother He. We're here for the spirit beasts."
Hsieh Ming-chin and the servants looked at Xie Nuanyi suspiciously. They even held the hilts of their swords as if they would draw their swords at Xie Nuanyi if he gave them the signal.
He Yiming ignored all of this and waited quietly for Xie Nuanyi to continue.
As expected, Xie Nuanyi continued, "Our Xie Family has explored this forest dozens of times, and we've indeed seen two spirit beasts — long-armed raccoons."
He Yiming was moved. He asked, "How long have the two spirit beasts lived?"
Xie Nuanyi smiled bitterly. "I don't know their exact age, but based on their behavior, they should be around 200 years old."
He Yiming's face immediately revealed a trace of disappointment. A spiritual beast with a lifespan of around 200 years was simply useless to him.
