The Linggu Valley had about 6000 people, all of them were humans. 4000 of them were male cultivators and 2000 were female cultivators.
Among the nearly six thousand people, less than twenty of them had ascended from the Lower Realm. Most of the people in Lin Valley Village had grown up in the God Realm. Almost all of them were born with the cultivation of True Gods.
Because of the imbalance between the sexes and the danger of going out to hunt, the Linggu Valley was unable to expand and could only barely maintain its size.
Fortunately, most of the female cultivators in the village were not like those in the Immortal, Devil and Monster Realms who refused to marry easily. The situation of the lower level cultivators in the God Realm forced them to find a home. In the God Realm, the female cultivators were only responsible for giving birth to children. Generally, they would not go out to hunt. To them, this was a kind of protection and also for the long term development of the village.
In the Divine Realm, as long as one could eat and drink to their heart's content, there would never be a day where one's life essence would be exhausted. In other words, immortality was the same as immortality. Therefore, the cultivators at the bottom did not feel much pressure. This was also one of the reasons why female cultivators were willing to marry and give birth to children.
In order to encourage marriage and giving birth, there were many rules in the village. There were many practical rewards for marriage and giving birth to children.
The situation in the few villages near the Linggu Valley was more or less the same. There were more men than women. As for the situation in the God Realm, no one knew.
Generally speaking, newborn children did not need to go out to hunt. In other words, those Deity cultivators basically ate and drank for free in the village. After all, an ordinary wolf demon's cultivation was around the Great God stage. Deity cultivators would not be able to go out to hunt.
However, there were also some Deity cultivators who would go out. But most of them would follow a group of Great God stage seniors to gain experience and gain experience.
The women and Deity cultivators in the village did not need to go out. Therefore, the cultivators who went out to hunt would have to hand over some meat to feed these idle people. Regarding this point, even those single men did not have any objections.
This was all information that Xiao Lingyu gradually learned after he became a villager in the Linggu Valley. Most of it was also told to him by Kang Ping and Yueru.
"After a woman gets married, what if her husband encounters danger and dies while out hunting?" Xiao Lingyu asked.
"Hehe, of course it's to choose another marriage. After all, there are many men in the village. Women don't have to worry about not being able to get married, even if they are already married," Yueru explained with a smile.
"Actually, there are many women who have been married many times. After all, everyone is immortal in theory. If a woman is widowed, she would have to be widowed for too long. This is too cruel for her. Therefore, the villagers will only sympathize with a woman who remarries. They won't discriminate against her," Kang Ping added.
"Then, is there a man who marries several women?" Xiao Lingyu asked curiously.
"There is, but it's very rare. Moreover, there is a rule in the village. If a man wants to marry more than one woman, other than the first wife, he can only marry a widow who has already been married and whose husband has died. On this point, almost no one in our village has ever violated it," Yueru replied.
Xiao Lingyu nodded, indicating that he understood. Then, he said, "This small village in the Realm of the Gods is really not much different from a mortal village. The only difference is that the cultivators in the Realm of the Gods are very indifferent to carnal desires. Most of them marry and have children for the sake of dual cultivation and nurturing their descendants."
"Sigh, actually, if this goes on, what's the difference between us and those mortals? At most, we'll just live a little longer. However, it'll only be a longer ordinary life. It's dull and gray, and there's no hope at all, "Yueru said with a sigh.
"It's not that there's no hope. How vast is the Immortal Realm? As long as we can cultivate to the Heavenly God Tier, we'll be able to leave this village and experience the outside world to seek more opportunities," Kang Ping said with great ambition.
"Let's not talk about how difficult it is to cultivate to the Realm of the Gods. Even if we really manage to cultivate to the Realm of the Gods, we might lose our lives not long after leaving the village. The outside world is very big and very exciting, but it's also very dangerous." Yueru shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Haha, that depends on what you think. If you want to live a peaceful life, just stay in this village. If you want to improve and seek opportunities, then you naturally have to take risks," Kang Ping said with a smile.
After Xiao Lingyu stayed in the Linggu Valley for a period of time, the few groups of cultivators who had gone out to hunt all returned one after another. However, what they did not expect was that almost every group had suffered great losses.
After asking carefully, they found out that almost all the groups that the Linggu Valley had sent out to hunt last time had encountered large groups of silver-armored cultivators. Moreover, those silver-armored cultivators had attacked them without saying a word. It was as if they had a deep grudge against the Linggu Valley.
The cultivators of the Linggu Valley were very experienced in dealing with wolf demons. As long as they did not encounter large groups of wolf demons or a silver-haired wolf King, they would not suffer too many losses. However, they lacked experience in fighting against other cultivators. In addition, the silver-armored cultivators had a greater advantage in numbers every time they attacked, so the Linggu Valley's hunting teams were in such a miserable state this time.
It was very obvious that those silver-armored cultivators had a purpose. They had premeditated and prepared to attack the Linggu Valley's hunting teams. It was almost as if they were declaring war on the Linggu Valley with their actions.
After hearing this news from Yueru, Xiao Lingyu was a little surprised and asked, "Are those silver-armored cultivators from the nearby villages?"
The injured had been sent to the few stone houses next to the herb garden to recuperate. Naturally, Yueru was the first to receive a lot of information.
"Yes, they are from Silvermoon Village, which is only thirty thousand kilometers away from us." Yueru nodded and replied.
"Is Silvermoon Village very strong?" Xiao Lingyu frowned and asked again.
"They are a little stronger than our Linggu Valley. They have close to ten thousand people." Yueru replied.
For some reason, ever since Xiao Lingyu stood up for Kang Pingqiang last time, Yueru often came to chat with him. It seemed that Yueru admired Xiao Lingyu's righteous and courageous character from the bottom of his heart, so he was willing to interact more with Xiao Lingyu.
"I don't know how the village is going to deal with this. If they dare to attack us, then they must have something to rely on," Xiao Lingyu said worriedly, as if he really thought of himself as a person from the Linggu Valley.
"This time, Silvermoon Village's actions are too despicable. I think the village will definitely gather the villagers to take revenge on them." Yueru said.
Just as Yueru said, the village chief quickly gathered all the villagers at the square. Then, the village chief stood on a high platform and reprimanded the cultivators of Silvermoon Village. He said that in the future, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. However, he didn't say how or when.
But these words of reprimand couldn't be heard by the people of Silvermoon Village. Apart from letting the people of the Linggu Valley secretly sigh in relief, it didn't have any practical effect.
However, after the gathering, the anger of the Linggu Valley villagers subsided quite a bit.
"It seems like this matter is going to be left unsettled."
Xiao Lingyu said with a smile. After waiting for more than ten days, he didn't see any big movements from the Linggu Valley.
They weren't as strong as the other party, so they definitely wouldn't be able to gain any advantage if they fought head-on. Other than reprimanding them, what else could the people of the Linggu Valley do? They couldn't possibly attack Silvermoon Village, could they?
If they were to go to war, the casualties would definitely be huge. In order to fill their stomachs and survive, these cultivators at the bottom of the God Realm might go out and hunt with all their might. However, if they were asked to fight and sacrifice themselves, they would definitely not be too willing.
Xiao Lingyu had already become a villager of the Linggu Valley. Naturally, he didn't have the right to eat and drink for free. Furthermore, he had the obligation to provide for the women and the weak in the village. Hence, a month after he came to Silvermoon Village, he went out to hunt with a group of villagers.
Every once in a while, the Linggu Valley would send out a group of cultivators to hunt. Each group had about five hundred people. There were about six groups of five hundred people in the entire village. They took turns to hunt, and after each group of five hundred people left the village, they would split into more than ten small groups. Each group had about thirty people.
Xiao Lingyu was in one of the small groups. And the villagers in this small group were all on good terms with Kang Ping.
However, the difference was that the small groups that went out to hunt this time had a total of fifty people. The scale of the small groups was much larger than before. The main purpose of the small groups was to prevent any sneak attacks from outsiders.
With Xiao Lingyu in the group, his small group naturally wouldn't be in danger. Even if Xiao Lingyu didn't deliberately show off, he would still be able to protect the safety of this group of villagers.
Because the people of Silvermoon Village had previously ambushed the hunting groups of the Linggu Valley, everyone was very cautious and careful. They had always been hunting in the outskirts of the secret territory. They weren't in a rush to succeed. Xiao Lingyu also wouldn't encourage everyone to take risks just because he was relatively strong.
All the hunting activities were carried out step by step. Because there were no casualties, the fighting strength of the small groups was not affected. Hence, everyone's harvest naturally increased. Everyone's faces were full of smiles.
Everyone could keep the rest of their harvest, except for a portion that had to be handed over. And the amount that they had to hand over was fixed. Hence, the greater their harvest, the more they could keep for themselves.
A month after leaving the Linggu Valley, Xiao Lingyu's small group had just surrounded and killed a group of dozens of wolf demons. Suddenly, dozens of streams of light suddenly flew towards them from all directions.
Although this attack came very suddenly, it flew over from a thousand feet away. Everyone still had time to react and put up a defense.
The divine sense of a great soul stage cultivator could be used to guard a thousand feet around him. These sudden sneak attacks could only be carried out from a thousand feet away. Otherwise, it would be easy to be exposed in advance.
Xiao Lingyu's eyes were sharp and his hands were fast. Those streams of light had just flown over when he had already struck out a circle of Primal Chaos Seal, blowing up the dozens of streams of light.
The remaining streaks of light were received by the other forty or so teammates.
The opponent's sudden sneak attack only injured three people in Xiao Lingyu's group.
