Chapter 141   Beast God Temple

It had been a long time since those events in his previous life, and while he couldn’t recall many of the details, Shi Li still remembered the general situation.

He and Xiong Ye had led those from the Big Bear Tribe who had managed to escape with them and arrived at the Beastman Continent behind Zhu Zhan.

At the time, they had wanted to get revenge, but they hadn’t been able to beat the people of the Giant Tiger Tribe. After learning about how powerful the Beastman Continent was, they had followed Zhu Zhan and arrived at the Beastman Continent...

Now that Zhu Zhan had returned ahead of time, where were Xiong Ye and the people of the Big Bear Tribe?

No matter what Shi Li was thinking, his outward appearance was still very intimidating. Not only was he handsome, he had also been a Beast King for many years in his previous life and naturally had the presence of a powerful being.

In addition, his outfit... While the vast majority of people wrapped themselves up in animal hide, Shi Li was dressed in neat clothing, with shoes on his feet and a good-looking chain looped around his neck. His hair had also been carefully groomed...

Such a finely dressed and fastidious person definitely wasn’t someone simple.

The two people from the Giant Pig Tribe noticed Shi Li and became somewhat afraid to speak.

“You don’t have to be afraid.” Shi Li said gently, “I’ve heard of Zhu Zhan. I just want to hear some news about him.”

One of two younger brothers of Zhu Zhan’s, who had had their legs injured by Zhu Zhu, was called Zhu Liang, while the other was called Zhu Guang. The meaning of these two people’s names could be considered very good during this era.

Zhu Liang – Liang means ‘bright’

Zhu Guang – Guang means ‘light’

When they learned that Shi Li knew of Zhu Zhan, they traded glances and finally asked, “Your Lordship, what’s your relationship with Zhu Zhan?” If this person had a good relationship with Zhu Zhan, then they didn’t plan to say much.

“I have nothing to do with him. I’ve only heard about his exile.” Shi Li replied.

Now that Shi Li had said so, Zhu Liang relaxed and said, “Zhu Zhan was exiled, but he probably pleased the devil somehow and actually managed to come back!”

“Oh?” Shi Li asked.

“Absolutely! He’s now become a demon! He imprisoned his father and drove us out of the tribe!” Zhu Liang continued.

“His father is a high level Beast Warrior, right? He’s so strong now? ” Shi Li asked.

“He’s not that strong, but he has people helping him.” Zhu Liang said.

“Who?” Shi Li frowned. He didn’t like it when things were out of his control, but at this moment, some things were very much beyond his control.

Zhu Zhan was clearly supposed to return a few years later. Why had he come back so early?

At this time, Zhu Zhan shouldn’t have become so powerful yet. How could he obtain his revenge?

“It’s a group of people. They’re from the Big Bear Tribe! Amongst those people, there’s a... there’s a powerhouse!” Zhu Liang said.

As soon as Zhou Ji had arrived at the Giant Pig Tribe, Zhu Zhan had gone to deal with the affairs of the tribe.

He hadn’t killed anyone indiscriminately, but the first thing he’d done was to drive out the people who had set him up, which just so happened to be Zhu Liang, Zhu Guang, and some others.

It was because of this that the two people of the Giant Pig Tribe didn’t know what had happened to the tribe later on. They didn’t know that the Big Bear Tribe actually had three Beast Kings, and only knew that Hai Feng was very strong and was probably a Beast King.

However, if they spoke about this matter now, they definitely wouldn’t be able to persuade others to help them deal with Zhu Zhan!

Shi Li heard the words ‘Big Bear Tribe,’ and his heart leapt up into his throat. By the time he heard that they had a powerhouse, he became even unhappier, “What powerhouse?” The Big Bear Tribe clearly didn’t have a powerhouse.

“It’s a middle-aged man...” Zhu Liang described Hai Feng’s appearance.

The Big Bear Tribe didn’t have anyone like that. So in this life, had Zhu Zhan returned back to the Beastman Continent ahead of time due to this powerhouse’s help?

His departure from the Big Bear Tribe had caused some changes, but the differences between his previous life and this life weren’t that big...

After Shi Li became a Beast King, he had taken in some servants. After listening to Zhu Liang and Zhu Guang’s words, he turned to his servant and ordered, “Arrange a residence for these two men.”

“Yes, my lord!” Shi Li’s servant replied.

Shi Li left after giving his orders, and Zhu Liang went to ask the servant, “Who is that Lord?”

The servant sent Zhu Liang a disdainful glance and said, “That is the Lion Beast King.”

Lion Beast King? Zhu Liang and Zhu Guang both sucked in a breath in surprise. They hadn’t expected that they’d actually met a Beast King!

This Beast King had been very friendly to them. Could they ask him for help to get revenge?

Zhu Guang and Zhu Liang were both excited, and they also felt fortunate that someone was willing to take them in–they had originally been in respected positions, but now that they’d hurt their legs, they had no way to make a living for themselves.

While Zhu Guang and Zhu Liang were being settled in near Shi Li’s residence, Shi Li was busy talking to the girl next to him.

This girl was the daughter of the High Priest of the Beast God Temple, and her name was Shen Yue. She was responsible for cleaning the Beast God’s statue, and she had a high position in the Beast God Temple.

In his previous life, Shi Li hadn’t been aware of this person, nor had he ever met her, but this didn’t prevent him from approaching Shen Yue now.

After interacting for a month, the relationship between Shi Li and Shen Yue had gotten closer, and there was only one layer of window paper left between them.

Worried about having to take a mate, Shi Li only planned to break that layer of window paper after the Beast God Sacrifice.

“Shi Li, do you know Zhu Zhan?” Shen Yue asked.

“No.” Shi Li replied, “But I know the Big Bear Tribe.”

Shen Yue looked at Shi Li in surprise.

Shi Li continued, “Didn’t I tell you before that I’m from the wild forest? I came from the Big Bear Tribe.”

Shi Li knew that he couldn’t hide the matters of his past, so he simply didn’t try to hide them.

After all, everything would change in the future... By the time he died in his previous life, the wild forest had no longer been the place where sinners were exiled to!

By then, the glory of beastmen had shone brightly on both continents.

Although Shi Li felt that it wasn’t pleasant for others to hear that he was born in the wild forest, he also felt that this wasn’t something that needed to be concealed.

Shen Yue’s eyes flashed with disdain when she heard the words ‘wild forest’, but Shi Li was a Beast King, and such strength made her willing to hide her reaction.

Shen Yue smiled and asked, “What is the Big Bear Tribe like?”

“The Big Bear Tribe? It’s a very poor tribe.” As he spoke of the Big Bear Tribe, Shi Li grew a little disdainful, but he then continued on to describe the Big Bear Tribe’s situation. “In the Big Bear Tribe, there are a lot of people who don’t have enough to eat, and everyone can only wear animal hides...”

Shi Li told Shen Yue a lot about the Big Bear Tribe, and the Big Bear Tribe that he described really sounded pretty bad. It seemed very poor and very backward.

Shen Yue became even more disdainful when she heard this.

The Big Bear Tribe that was so looked down upon by Shi Li was the target of envy for the people of the Giant Pig Tribe. When they learned that the people of the Big Bear Tribe would go and attend the Beast God Sacrifice held at the Beast God Temple, the people of the Giant Pig Tribe scrambled to be allowed to go with them, even if this meant that they would be acting as their servants and subordinates.

Zhu Yan finally selected some people who had performed well to follow them, and then he brought both Zhu Yan and the Giant Pig Tribe’s priest along as well–if he didn’t bring these two, he was worried that they would stir up a fuss when left behind in the tribe.

Things would be fine if they took them along. It was a simple matter to keep an eye on these two people.

That day, a team of people left the Giant Pig Tribe just after dawn.

“The Beast God Sacrifice held at the Beast God Temple every year is very lively. There will be a large market in front of the Beast God Temple on the first three days of the Beast God Sacrifice where all the tribes can trade for various things. On the day of the Beast God Sacrifice, everyone will gather together to pray at the foot of the mountain.” Zhu Zhan finally had some time to speak to Zhou Ji and Xiong Ye about the Beast God Sacrifice.

Zhou Ji and Xiong Ye listened carefully, and Hai Feng was also very interested, “Share more about the market.”

Zhu Zhan went on to speak more about the market.

Only, even Zhu Zhan hadn’t been able to qualify to participate in the Beast God Sacrifice every year. In the seven or eight years before his exile, Zhu Yan had always had some of his other children with him and hadn’t taken him. Because of this, there was much he didn’t know about the Beast God Sacrifice.

Hai Feng went to ask the Rhinoceros Beast King, “I heard that you participate in the Beast God Sacrifice every year? Can you tell us about it?”

The Rhinoceros Beast King said, “I feel that the Beast God Sacrifice is a bit boring... Every time I go to participate in the Beast God Sacrifice, the Beast God Temple will gift us Beast Kings with some stuff, and then we cooperate with them to deal with some matters.”

As Beast Kings, they were actually in a mutually beneficial relationship with the Beast God Temple. The Beast God Temple didn’t dare to offend them, and they also wouldn’t offend the Beast God Temple.

Generally speaking, it was a matter of accepting that it was better to all get along with each other.

As for the market that Zhu Zhan liked, he didn’t pay much attention to it. After all, he didn’t need to trade for things if he wanted them as people would just send them to his door.

Hai Feng was very disappointed with such an answer, “Son, you’re really useless!”

Rhinoceros Beast King: “I’m not your son!”

Hai Feng: “Alright! I also don’t want a son like you who is older than me.”

Rhinoceros Beast King: “......” He wanted to fight this person again! Unfortunately, he couldn’t win!

Last time this person had changed into his animal form too quickly and had smashed him dizzy. He hadn’t even seen this person’s animal form clearly!

Everyone travelled as they talked, and Hai Feng suddenly asked, “I... Should I hide my identity?”

“Why hide your identity?” The Rhinoceros Beast King was puzzled, “You’re a Beast King, and Zhou Ji and Xiong Ye are also Beast Kings. You should tell everyone about this!”

Three Beast Kings appearing all of a sudden... The Rhinoceros Beast King could already imagine what kind of sensation they would be.

“What’s the benefit of telling others?” Hai Feng asked.

“You can receive a large territory, can have exquisite pottery, delicious food...” The Rhinoceros Beast King painted a bright future for Hai Feng.

Hai Feng interrupted the other party’s words even before he finished. “I don’t need it.”

He was now afraid that his identity would be known, and the Beast God Temple would come to make trouble for him again.

Even if Zhou Ji was very strong, he might not necessarily be able to beat the Beast God Temple...

The Rhinoceros Beast King didn’t know what Hai Feng was thinking and didn’t understand, but Zhou Ji understood very clearly.

Zhou Ji said, “Being more low-key is good too. The fact that we have several Beast Kings doesn’t need to be spread out.”

This time, he had been planning to attend the Beast God Sacrifice in order to look into Shi Li’s situation and do some trading. If it was possible, he didn’t want to attract the attention of the Beast God Temple.

He wasn’t in good health and couldn’t fight, so it was better to keep a low profile.

Since Zhou Ji had said so, Xiong Ye gave orders to everyone regarding this matter.

Regardless of whether it was the people of the Big Bear Tribe or the Giant Pig Tribe, they were all disappointed to hear this.

They wanted to show off! Why couldn’t they show off!

Although they couldn’t show off, everyone still pushed on to the Beast God Temple at a very quick pace.

It only took two days for them to arrive near the Beast God Temple.

They arrived just in time. The market started the next day, and right now... Everyone was already fighting for a spot to set up in the market.

“Are we going to go and grab a spot too?” Xiong Ye looked at Zhou Ji.

Zhou Ji who was being carried while seated on his recliner, said, “Ask Zhu Yan about it.”

Xiong Ye heard this and immediately went to ask Zhu Yan about it. He learned from Zhu Yan that the Giant Pig Tribe had a fixed location.

“In that case, we’ll go to that fixed location.” Zhou Ji said.

The people of the Giant Pig Tribe immediately carried him over, but they hadn’t gone far when they encountered the Beast God Temple’s patrols.

Seeing them, the patrol immediately asked, “Which tribe are you from?”

“We are from the Giant Pig Tribe.” Zhu Zhan stated.

“So you’re from the Giant Pig Tribe...” The patrol leader acknowledged, then let them go. But after they left, this person turned to someone beside him and said, “Quickly go and inform the Lion Beast King that the people of the Giant Pig Tribe have arrived.”

The Giant Pig Tribe wasn’t a huge tribe, but it was still a big tribe. As a high level Beast Warrior, Zhu Yan had been the tribal chief for many years, and many people knew him.

So, someone came to find Zhu Yan soon after they finished talking to the patrol. “Why did you guys come so late this time... Where’s Zhu Yan?”

The person who had come to find Zhu Yan had run over. Their first reaction when they arrived was to look at the person who was being carried, and then they discovered... This person who was being carried actually wasn’t the Giant Pig Tribe’s tribal chief Zhu Yan, but rather a youth who was a complete stranger.

What was going on? Was this youth Zhu Yan’s current favored son?

Zhu Yan’s friend was still puzzled when he saw Zhu Zhan come out with Zhu Yan in tow. “Zhu Yan is here.”

Zhu Yan’s friend couldn’t help but be a little confused when he saw this–Zhu Yan was a high level Beast Warrior, why was he being dragged around like this?

Even if the person carrying him was very tall, it was still inconceivable for him to attack a high level Beast Warrior–did he think that he was a Beast King? He even dared to insult a high level Beast Warrior!

“Did you want something?” On the other hand, Zhu Yan was very calm. He had already experienced even more disgraceful things; what did being carried around amount to?

“I just wanted to find you and talk to you.” Zhu Yan’s friend said.

“I don’t want to say anything to you.” Zhu Yan was expressionless as he turned around to rejoin the group.

When he had come here before, he was the one leading the team and thus, been in high spirits, but this time... The people of the Big Bear Tribe claimed that he was too old and had a bad image, and only allowed him to walk at the very end of the procession!

He was a high level Beast Warrior, but he could only walk at the end!

But his situation was already considered pretty good. Not only did the priest from their tribe have to walk at the end, he also had to help with carrying things...

Zhu Yan, who had suffered a lot lately, had now learned to find joy in other people’s suffering...

Since Zhu Yan was so uncooperative, his friend was also helpless. As for the people around them, they had already started discussing the situation with curiosity, “Has the person leading the Giant Pig Tribe changed?”

“Is the one leading the team one of Zhu Yan’s sons?”

“Zhu Yan’s not young anymore, he should really give up his position...”

......

Zhu Yan: “......”

Another person noticed Zhou Ji, “Who is the man who is being carried? He looks pretty good!”

“Is it a priest?”

“The priest of the Giant Pig Tribe doesn’t seem to look like this.”

......

Many people were curious about the Big Bear Tribe, and while they were all talking about it, Shi Li had also come over to observe the Big Bear Tribe from a distance.

Others only noticed Zhu Zhan at a glance, but Shi Li noticed Xiong Ye standing beside Zhu Zhan.

Xiong Ye wasn’t wearing any clothing and had only wrapped an animal hide around himself, revealing bronzed skin.

His animal form was very big, but his human form wasn’t fat. His muscles were just right...

Shi Li had previously thought that Xiong Ye might have died during the attack by the Giant Tiger Tribe, or that he might’ve been seriously injured. However, the Xiong Ye he could see right now seemed to be completely fine.

Shi Li was relieved, but his heart soon clenched again–what was he seeing? Zhou Ji was still alive!

And Zhou Ji was even being carried.

The Giant Tiger Tribe’s attack had been very fierce. How had Zhou Ji managed to survive? He should have died along with the elderly and weak of the tribe!

Shi Li was still thinking about this when he noticed that his own younger brother wasn’t in the team... In his previous life, his younger brother had remained alive thanks to his and Xiong Ye’s help.

Had his younger brother died while Zhou Ji survived?

Shi Li’s expression immediately turned a little ugly–was Xiong Ye really that good to Zhou Ji?

Juurensha: Oh boy, showdown time it sounds like.

xiin: lol the old Giant Pig Tribe chief and priest are kinda funny
