When the middle-aged man came out, everyone immediately made way for him. Moreover, everyone looked at him with reverence. The originally noisy and jubilant village also became incomparably quiet.
This burly middle-aged man was Shen Xiang's father, Shen Tianhu!
"Is this your father? He looks very similar to you! "Long Xueyi said.
"Yes, it's him!" Shen Xiang said excitedly, "Dad is still alive!"
He just wanted to meet Shen Tianhu first, but he saw a group of people coming out of the huge stone mountain surrounding the village. There were some caves in these stone mountains, and there were some people living inside.
"Old Village Chief, you sent your villagers to their deaths again. This time, they were lucky to be able to come back alive. I wonder what they hunted?"
The one who spoke was a tall and thin man. He looked very young, but the middle-aged and old men behind him seemed to listen to him.
"What does this have to do with you? You guys only know how to hide in the cave all day long, don't even think about stealing our prey! "A teenager shouted at the group of people.
"Humph? Why is it none of our business? You guys went to hunt those giant beasts. If you angered the families of those giant beasts and chased after us, we would also be unlucky! We are taking a great risk, so you have to share half of it with us. "The words of the tall and thin middle-aged man made the thousand villagers angry.
Shen Xiang understood that in this environment, humans were definitely lacking in all kinds of resources. Even if there were outside, they did not have the strength to mine it, because there were too many giant beasts and too few people. Now, even eating was a problem, so they sent people out to hunt the giant beasts.
"You all … Hurry up and get lost. As long as I, Shen Luzhong, am still alive, I will never let you ride on our heads!" An angry voice suddenly echoed in the valley.
At this time, Shen Tianhu was also full of killing intent. His eyes were incomparably red, as if he could kill the tall and thin middle-aged man at any time.
However, the tall and thin man was not afraid at all. He just laughed loudly, and the two hundred people behind him also laughed.
"Come on, do you dare to fight with us? You may be able to destroy us, but I'm afraid more than half of you will die! "The tall and thin middle-aged man laughed sinisterly.
Shen Xiang had already seen that the tall and skinny middle-aged man was not very strong, but if Shen Tianhu wanted to deal with him, it would not be easy. Although he could kill him, it might take some time. Moreover, the people behind the tall and skinny middle-aged man were not weak. If there was a conflict, many people in the village who did not have any martial strength would be killed.
"Granduncle is still alive, but his lifespan is about to run out!" Shen Xiang realized that the situation here was not as optimistic as what others had told him. In fact, it was very bad.
Shen Xiang was supported by two young men. He looked like a lamp that was about to run out of oil, but he had a very terrifying strength, which scared Shen Xiang.
"The strength of a Monarch Immortal! How could it be so fast? "Long Xueyi was also very surprised. Shen Xiang had told her about his father and granduncle.
"Old Village Chief, you look good!" The tall and skinny middle-aged man laughed sinisterly, because Shen Luzhong's situation was getting worse and worse.
Shen Xiang, who had turned into a butterfly, had already flown down and returned to his original form. At this time, everyone was looking at Shen Luzhong, and did not notice that a stranger had appeared here.
"Why don't you compete with me again and refine another batch of pills? As long as you win, we will …"
If you win, I'll let you go. "The tall and skinny man laughed.
"Li Mu, you ungrateful bastard, who taught you how to refine pills back then? Who saved your life? "Shen Luzhong said angrily.
"Who told you not to pass the position of village chief to me? Look at the power behind me, and you know that I am qualified to be the village chief. "Li Mu took out a blade and played with it in his hand.
Shen Tianhu clenched his fists that were bulging with veins and walked forward: "The group of people behind you are all bastards who have made a big mistake and are imprisoned in a cage. If you release them, you will sooner or later reap the consequences of your own actions."
Li Mu glared at him and sneered, "I'll count to three. Either you compete with me in alchemy, or you hand over half of the prey you just obtained. Otherwise, even if we have to risk our lives, we will fight you today."
Who knew that Li Mu had sinister intentions? If Shen Luzhong were to compete with him in pill refining again, he might die immediately.
Shen Tianhu was angry, and the other youths in the village were also angry. They were all prepared to fight, and just as Shen Tianhu raised his fist, Shen Luzhong sighed: "Forget it, let's compete!"
As long as he could buy some time for the village and make the youths in the village stronger, he would no longer be threatened by this group of people in the future.
"How about I compete with him?" Shen Xiang suddenly walked up. His unfamiliar voice surprised many people, but Shen Luzhong and Shen Tianhu trembled and turned around in disbelief.
Shen Xiang had a smile on his face. He was the same as before, but he had become much more mature and steady, although no one could sense any aura of True Qi from his body. However, the aura he had when he spoke just now made people not dare to underestimate him.
"Oh? I didn't expect the old fellow to cultivate a disciple so quickly. But what do you have to compete with me? The old fellow will lose more than ten years of his life if he competes with me once. " Li Mu said with a face full of disdain, but he was curious that there was a face in this village that he had never seen before.
Shen Tianhu and Shen Luzhong were very excited at first, but they quickly calmed down. They knew what Shen Xiang wanted to do, so they couldn't expose Shen Xiang's identity now. Otherwise, Li Mu wouldn't compete with Shen Xiang.
Shen Xiang was very familiar with Shen Luzhong's pill refining skills, and Shen Tianhu also had a lot of confidence in his son. Back then, the Shen family's pill industry was started by Shen Xiang. As for why Shen Xiang would appear here, although they were curious, this was not what they should ask now.
"If I lose, how about I break one of my arms?" Shen Xiang walked up and said indifferently.
