From an outsider's point of view, he suspected that Shi Li was a transmigrator like him.
However, he quickly denied this, because Shi Li was very familiar with this world. He even wanted to kill Hu Yue, who had nothing to do with him in the tribe.
Most importantly, he seemed to recognize Mammoth Heaven, and knew who he was.
This was … rebirth?
Zhou Ji felt a little pity for Xiong Ye. He liked his partner so much, but he couldn't wait to dump him after rebirth.
However, Zhou Ji's pity didn't last long, because Xiong Ye proposed to him in the dream, and he agreed …
Zhou Ji was stunned by this sudden plot!
He couldn't imagine himself having a partner.
However … the him in the dream had a partner and was living quite well.
Zhou Ji saw Xiong Ye working hard to take care of him, saw the two of them getting closer, and worked hard for the development of the tribe …
Zhou Ji suddenly woke up.
He was still in his cold bedroom. He extended his mental power, and the surroundings were still familiar to him.
Zhou Ji closed his eyes, turned over, and fell asleep again.
In the dream, he and Xiong Ye continued living.
There were no quarrels, no intense love. It was just a small matter of daily necessities, but it made his heart warm, and he was somewhat immersed in it.
This dream lasted for many days, and he followed the two of them for many years.
He became more and more jealous of the Zhou Ji in the dream.
That person had become a Beast God just like him. But when he was lying alone in the Beast God Temple, that person brought Xiong Ye around to eat, drink, and play.
Perhaps for the sake of enjoyment, that Zhou Ji was motivated to make some things that he was too lazy to make, and then he lived even more comfortably!
At his age, that person was already eating tofu, using soy sauce, and there were even people writing books for that person to read!
What about him?
Because he was lazy, and because he didn't have a good impression of the Beast God Temple, he didn't teach the people of the Beast God Temple how to read, nor did he make soy sauce. He only gave some of the plants he found to the people of the Beast God Temple to grow.
One day, Zhou Ji got up from his bed, and after filling his stomach with some food, he quietly left the Beast God Temple.
He wanted to see the two new beast kings of the Beast God Temple — Xiong Ye and Shi Li.
It had been many years, and he didn't know what they were like now.
Zhou Ji quickly found Xiong Ye.
Xiong Ye and Shi Li were arranged to stay in the residence of the Beast God Hall's Beast Kings. However, at this moment, only Xiong Ye was in the room, focusing on cultivation.
The cultivation method he had given Xiong Ye back then was not very useful. Now that Xiong Ye had become a Beast King, the effects of this cultivation method were negligible.
However, Xiong Ye was still cultivating. He was quite hardworking.
Zhou Ji observed Xiong Ye with his mental power and found that the Xiong Ye in front of him was very different from the Xiong Ye in his dreams.
The Xiong Ye in his dream had always lived a good life. Even as he grew older, he still looked young. The Xiong Ye in front of him was different.
He was almost fifty years old. Although his body was still in peak condition because he had become a Beast King, his face showed signs of weathering, and there were many scars on his exposed upper body.
There were even deep wrinkles between Xiong Ye's brows.
When he first transmigrated here, Xiong Ye was only eighteen years old. Although he had to worry about starving, he had never been like this … These years, he must have really suffered.
Some unknown thoughts rose in Zhou Ji's mind.
Since he had nothing to do, Zhou Ji stayed outside for a while longer. After he stayed for a while, Lion Li returned.
Xiong Ye only wore a simple animal skin skirt, but Lion Li was different. He wore a long robe and many accessories. He looked very much like a Beast King.
"Xiong Ye, are you cultivating again? We are already Beast Kings. This cultivation method has long been useless to us, "Lion Li said as soon as he came in.
Actually, this cultivation method was not very effective after they became high-level Beast Warriors. Lion Li did not cultivate anymore. Most of the time, he still relied on absorbing the crystal cores of animals to cultivate.
However, Xiong Ye had always been very silly. He did not use crystal cores and kept cultivating.
Of course, this was a good thing for him. If not for this, he might not have been able to catch up with Xiong Ye and become a Beast King together with him.
Xiong Ye looked at Lion Li. His gaze was much gentler. "I'm used to it."
Lion Li curled his lips and said, "You should be wearing clothes. Why are you wearing an animal skin skirt?"
"I'm not going out," Xiong Ye said.
"Even at home, you can't be so sloppy." Lion Li was somewhat dissatisfied.
The gentleness in Xiong Ye's eyes disappeared. Instead, he frowned.
However, Lion Li did not notice. He said, "We are not born in large tribes. There are many things we don't understand. You should go out more and broaden your horizons. Otherwise, you will be looked down upon."
Xiong Ye said, "I am already a Beast King. Who dares to look down on me?"
The atmosphere between the two was not good. At this moment, people from the Beast God Temple delivered food.
Lion Li ate silently and went out again.
Zhou Ji followed him quietly and saw him being carried by some people from large tribes without Beast Kings. He looked rather smug.
Zhou Ji did not find it strange at all to see Lion Li like this.
In this world, there were many people who did not even know their surnames after they became famous. It was very normal for Lion Li to be like this.
The Lion Li in front of him was quite similar to some nouveau riche on Earth. He was also very similar to the Lion Li in his dreams. Indeed, the Lion Li in his dreams was reborn …
Zhou Ji noticed that the people from those tribes had found some young men and women to serve Lion Li.
Lion Li did not do anything to those men and women, but he did not reject them either. He even clearly enjoyed their service. Seeing Lion Li like this, someone immediately suggested that Lion Li bring them back.
But at this moment, Lion Li hesitated. "There's no need for that. My partner will not be happy."
If Lion Li's partner was someone else, those people would definitely try to persuade Lion Li to accept it. They might even directly send the person to Lion Li's house. But Lion Li's partner was Xiong Ye, another Beast King.
These people wanted to curry favor with Lion Li, but they did not intend to offend another Beast King. Hence, they did not try to persuade him.
Zhou Ji noticed that Lion Li was a little vexed. But very soon, he became happy again because of these people's flattery.
As he ate, he looked at the beautiful young men and women serving him. He even talked about how he had hunted and killed dinosaurs in the past.
He spoke passionately, but when Zhou Ji heard it, he felt that something was wrong.
Lion Li might have really killed those dinosaurs. But with his strength at that time, it was basically impossible for him to kill those dinosaurs alone. Therefore … Xiong Ye must have fought back then.
But now, Lion Li did not mention Xiong Ye at all.
He could see that Lion Li's feelings towards Xiong Ye had changed.
That's right. After becoming rich and powerful, how many people could not marry their wives who had gone through hardships?
Now that Lion Li did not dare to do anything, it was probably because Xiong Ye was very powerful and he did not have the guts.
Zhou Ji felt that he was really bored. He had actually watched Lion Li showing off to others for a long time …
Only when the night fell did Lion Li prepare to go back. However, on his way back, he was stopped.
The one who stopped Lion Li was a strong woman with a scar on her face. Zhou Ji observed her in the dark for a while before he recognized her as Hu Yue of the big bear tribe, Xiong Ye's elder sister.
When he was in the big bear tribe, he did not have a deep impression of Hu Yue. He only remembered that she was a powerful but silent woman. But now, Hu Yue … She looked a little sinister. When she looked at Lion Li, her expression was even more horrifying.
Hu Yue stared at Lion Li and said, "Lion Li, you better calm down. If you fool around with those people again, I'll tell Xiong Ye about this."
"What do you mean fool around with people? I'm just going out to chat and eat with people!" Lion Li said, "Hu Yue, I'm the chief. Show some respect to me!"
"If you respect Xiong Ye, I'll respect you too," Hu Yue said.
Lion Li's expression turned a little ugly. "I don't need you to remind me!"
Lion Li left after saying that. Hu Yue did not chase after him, but Zhou Ji followed him secretly. Then, he heard Lion Li curse a few words.
After Lion Li cursed, his expression did not change. In the end, with anger, he returned to the place where he and Xiong Ye lived.
Zhou Ji was suddenly a little unhappy that the two of them were going to sleep together.
Fortunately, he did not witness this scene.
When Lion Li returned, Xiong Ye had already fallen asleep. He stared at Xiong Ye for a while, then suddenly looked at the place where Zhou Ji lived. Then, he ran in that direction.
Zhou Ji was shocked and returned to his own residence first. Not long after, Lion Li came and looked around carefully at the door.
After a while, he flipped over the wall and came to the courtyard.
Zhou Ji observed Lion Li on the second floor of the divine temple and suddenly realized … Was Lion Li interested in the Beast Deity?
Lion Li was indeed interested in the Beast Deity.
He wanted to know if the Beast Deity really existed.
Lion Li had such doubts for a long time. The reason why he had such doubts was that after he became a high-level beast warrior, he suddenly regretted marrying Xiong Ye early and being tied together.
Other high-level beast warriors could have many women, but what about him? Because of Xiong Ye, until now, he did not know what women felt like and did not have children.
He was so talented. It was a pity that he did not have children to inherit all of this!
He wanted children.
But Xiong Ye would never agree.
After coming to the Beastmen Continent, he had seen some people who became partners and eventually separated. He also had such thoughts, but because Xiong Ye was very powerful and he was afraid of being punished by the Beast Deity, he did not dare to do so.
Of course, he did this because he knew that if he really separated from Xiong Ye, he would lose a lot — if he really did that, most of the people in the Big Bear Tribe would stand on Xiong Ye's side.
But now that he was the Beast King, there were many things that he did not need to worry about.
So what if the people in the Big Bear Tribe stood on Xiong Ye's side? His identity as the Beast King could immediately attract a large number of followers to him!
Of course, even so, he was still worried that Xiong Ye would not be willing. And there was the Beast Deity …
It was a gift from the Beast Deity that he could obtain that cultivation method. If he did something that displeased the Beast Deity, would the Beast Deity be angry?
Lion Li entered the divine temple of the Beast Deity, which did not allow people to approach easily. Then, he was stunned by the scene inside the courtyard.
It was still spring. Logically, most of the fruit trees had not borne any fruits. But in this courtyard, there were many fruits that would only ripen in summer or autumn hanging on the trees.
This must be a miracle left by the Beast Deity!
Lion Li was somewhat hesitant, but after thinking for a while, he still walked towards the divine temple.
Zhou Ji frowned in dissatisfaction.
Originally, he only disliked Lion Li, but now … he already hated Lion Li.
Without Xiong Ye, Lion Li would have starved to death when he was young. Without Xiong Ye, Lion Li would never have become the Beast King. But now that he was powerful, he began to disregard Xiong Ye.
Using his mental strength and energy at the same time, Lion Li, the Beast King, was pushed out before he could open the door to Zhou Ji's room.
No, it could not be said to be pushed.
Zhou Ji was in a bad mood, so he used a little too much strength, practically throwing Lion Li out.
Caught off guard, Lion Li was thrown into the courtyard. His face turned pale, and he hurriedly got up and knelt on the ground. "Beast Deity above, I did not mean to offend you …"
Casually throwing a Beast King out … Who else could do such a thing other than the Beast Deity?
Lion Li was terrified to the extreme at this moment.
He knelt for a while, carefully wanting to leave.
Zhou Ji originally wanted to teach him a lesson, but he felt that it was a little despicable of him to do so. In the end, he did not do anything.
Lion Li did not know what Zhou Ji was thinking. He only thought that the Beast Deity had forgiven him. In the end, he left uneasily and uneasily.
Zhou Ji did not want to sleep to watch his other self and Xiong Ye entangle, so he quietly followed.
Seeing that Lion Li did not sleep with Xiong Ye in the end, he heaved a sigh of relief.
But very soon, he felt that his sigh of relief was a little too quick.
The next day, Lion Li did not go out to fool around, but instead started to show concern for Xiong Ye. Not only that, Lion Li also started to inquire about news from the people of the Beast Divine Temple.
Because of his instructions, the high priest of the Beast Divine Temple had a good attitude towards Lion Li, answering all his questions.
As he asked, Lion Li suddenly asked, "High priest, will the people who become partners on the day of the Beast Deity Ceremony receive the blessings of the Beast Deity?"
"Of course," the high priest said.
"If they separate, will the Beast Deity be unhappy?" Lion Li asked again.
"Probably. The Beast Deity likes people who are loyal to their partners," the high priest said.
Zhou Ji: "…"
Zhou Ji tried hard to recall, only to realize that a few years ago, when he was still willing to communicate with the high priest of the Beast Divine Temple, he had once said that he did not like people who betrayed their partners.
And now, the high priest actually told Lion Li that …
Lion Li quickly left. After he left, Zhou Ji appeared in front of the high priest.
Seeing Zhou Ji suddenly appear, the high priest knelt down in surprise and joy.
The high priest in front of him was personally chosen by Zhou Ji. This person was not smart, but he was kind and devout, and would not do bad things.
Zhou Ji said, "Find a chance to tell Lion Li that the Beast Deity approves the separation of partners who have no feelings for each other."
The high priest was stunned, and immediately said, "Yes, Your Holiness."
Zhou Ji thought for a while, then said, "Choose two territories, and tell them they can go to different places."
Lion Li and Xiong Ye were partners, and by right, they would not be separated. Thus, the Beast Divine Temple had originally only prepared one territory for them.
But now that Zhou Ji had said so, the high priest naturally agreed.
After Zhou Ji gave his instructions, he left.
The high priest thought for a while, and was very puzzled — why did His Holiness seem to want to separate Lion Li and Xiong Ye?
Could it be that His Holiness had designs on Lion Li? Otherwise, why would he do that?
Thinking of Zhou Ji's instructions yesterday to treat Lion Li well … the high priest felt that he knew the truth.
The high priest was very devout toward Zhou Ji, and naturally paid attention to Zhou Ji's instructions. That afternoon, he personally went to look for Lion Li and Xiong Ye.
Lion Li was dressed the same as yesterday, and Xiong Ye had also put on a long robe.
Both Xiong Ye and Lion Li were very handsome. When they were young, Xiong Ye might have been better looking.
But these few years, Xiong Ye had been exposed to the wind and sun, and had become a little rough. In comparison, Lion Li had taken better care of himself — ever since he became a high-level Beast Warrior, Lion Li did not go hunting.
Not only did Lion Li take good care of himself, he was also very eloquent. The high priest entered Xiong Ye and Lion Li's room, observed Lion Li, and found that this person was indeed very likable.
Among all the Beast Kings, he was definitely the most outstanding in terms of appearance. Compared to the others, he was not even that old.
The high priest said, "I have come this time because I have something to discuss with the two Beast Kings."
"What is it?" Xiong Ye asked.
"What's so important that High Priest has to come all the way here?" Lion Li asked with a smile. What happened at the Beast Divine Temple last night made him not dare to be the slightest bit negligent when facing the high priest.
"It's about the territories of the two Beast Kings." The high priest said, "We have prepared two territories for the two Beast Kings. Both of you can choose one each."
"Two territories?" Xiong Ye and Lion Li were a little surprised and asked.
The high priest smiled and explained the locations of the two territories and the specific situation of the two territories.
These two territories were a little far from each other.
"We are partners, we can't be separated," Xiong Ye said.
The high priest had always wanted to say that partners could be separated, and now he finally found the opportunity. "Who says partners can't be separated? In the Beast People Continent, many partners will be separated."
Xiong Ye was dissatisfied with the high priest in front of him.
He felt that since they were already partners, he should treat his other half well and not be separated easily.
Lion Li was a little surprised. "Didn't High Priest say that the Beast Deity likes people who are loyal to their partners?"
"Of course the Beast Deity likes people who are loyal to their partners, but partners without feelings can be separated and become partners with others. Of course, when they have a partner, they should be loyal," the high priest said.
Xiong Ye was stunned when he heard that, but Lion Li was delighted.
When Xiong Ye turned his head and saw the joy on Lion Li's face, his heart sank.
Lion Li wanted to ask a few more questions, but when he remembered that Xiong Ye was beside him, he did not dare to ask. Unexpectedly, Xiong Ye asked, "So there's such a saying?"
"Of course there is." The high priest looked at Xiong Ye sympathetically.
Xiong Ye asked again, "How do we dissolve a partnership?"
The high priest said, "During the Beast Deity Sacrificial Ceremony, we just need to hold a ceremony to dissolve the relationship."
Xiong Ye did not speak again. Not knowing what Lion Li was thinking, he also did not speak again.
The high priest felt that the atmosphere between the two of them was a little strange. He laughed dryly and said, "Regarding the territory, both of you take your time to think about it. I'll take my leave first."
Xiong Ye and Lion Li did not get up to send him off.
Xiong Ye's current feelings were very complicated.
He had always been aware of Lion Li's changes.
When they were young, they depended on each other and helped each other in times of need. They were so good that they could not be separated from each other. But later, slowly, there were many conflicts between them.
Lion Li loved to show off, but he was also lazy and did not like to do things. He was very tolerant of all of these.
It was nothing to him that his lover had a little problem.
But Lion Li …
Back then, when that mysterious person taught him cultivation techniques and even promised to let him teach it to Lion Li, he was very happy. In the end, he pretended to find a mysterious cave and let Lion Li learn from him.
But Lion Li could not persist.
He had felt that mysterious person's strength and knew that the mysterious person did not lie to him. He tried to persuade Lion Li several times, but in the end, he angered Lion Li.
He could only cultivate alone.
But when he cultivated alone, he became stronger than Lion Li, and Lion Li became unhappy again …
Fortunately, Lion Li was willing to cultivate with him. But Lion Li's progress had always been slower than his.
He could only give all the crystal cores of the animals that he and Lion Li killed that had crystal cores to Lion Li.
Their strength grew very slowly, but it was indeed growing. When they became high-level beast warriors, he felt that Lion Li became impatient with him.
Xiong Ye clearly knew that there was a problem between him and Lion Li.
After all, he and Lion Li were partners. He wanted to solve this problem, but Lion Li obviously did not think so. Lion Li had always been uncooperative.
But even so, they were still together. They were well together and did not separate.
Xiong Ye felt that after a long time, when they grew older, Lion Li should not be as jumpy as he was now, nitpicking on this and that all day long.
They were already partners and could not be separated. What else did Lion Li want?
Xiong Ye thought very well, but obviously, Lion Li did not think so.
Lion Li was always unhappy.
And now, he suddenly learned that partners could actually be separated.
Xiong Ye's feelings were extremely complicated.
Lion Li's feelings were even more complicated.
Lion Li said, "Xiong Ye, I have to leave for a while." He wanted to catch up with the High Priest and ask about this matter.
Lion Li left. Xiong Ye originally wanted to cultivate properly, but suddenly felt that he could not continue cultivating.
After coming to the Beast Divine Temple, he rarely went out. It was not that he did not want to go out, but because he knew that Lion Li was very active outside.
He did not want to see that kind of scene, so he simply did not go out.
Now … he wanted to go out for a walk.
There were still more than ten days before the Beast God Ceremony, but many tribes had already arrived near the Beast Divine Temple.
Many of them had even set up camp and started to trade with others.
The people of the Big Bear Tribe had a camp arranged for them by the people of the Beast Divine Temple.
Xiong Ye went there directly.
Seeing Xiong Ye, the people of the Big Bear Tribe all greeted him. Someone also asked Lion Li, "Xiong Ye, where's the chief? He didn't come with you? "
Hearing the two words "Lion Li", Xiong Ye's feelings were indescribably complicated, but he did not show it on his face. "He has something to do and did not come."
"Xiong Ye, our tribe has two beast kings. Those big tribes all come to curry favor with us!"
"Xiong Ye, the Beast Divine Temple really has a lot of things! The people here can actually feed themselves without hunting! "
"Xiong Ye, I met someone I like. He is willing to join the Big Bear Tribe!"
"Xiong Ye …"
…
The people of the Big Bear Tribe chattered noisily. It was very lively, but Xiong Ye's mood was not good.
Until now, he still did not know how Lion Li became like this.
Xiong Ye stayed in the tribe for a while, then left, intending to take a look nearby.
He did not let anyone follow him, but went to the place where the people of the Beast Divine Temple planted all kinds of crops.
It was said that a long time ago, the Beast Divine Temple would block all kinds of knowledge. Now, everything had changed. Now, the people of the Beast Divine Temple would take the initiative to teach others how to plant all kinds of crops.
Xiong Ye looked at the field for a while. Looking at the lush scenery, his mood became a little better.
At this time, he suddenly heard someone call him, "Xiong Ye?"
Xiong Ye looked over and realized that the person who called him was a fair-skinned man in his thirties, wearing clothes made of animal skin.
This person looked a little familiar, but Xiong Ye did not recognize him immediately. "You are?"
That person smiled at Xiong Ye. "I am Zhou Ji … Do you still recognize me?"
Zhou Ji? Xiong Ye looked at the person in front of him in surprise. This person was actually Zhou Ji!
Of course he remembered Zhou Ji. After coming to the Beastmen Continent, he had even gone to the Elephant Tribe to ask about Zhou Ji. But Elephant Sky had died, and the Elephant Tribe had dispersed. He had not heard anything.
