Chapter 135 - Provocation



Ch135 – Provocation

Zhu Yan felt that the person next to him had a good point.

This Big Bear Tribe was somewhat outside of his expectations.

At first, he had thought that any tribe that came from the wild forest would be backward and weak, but this hadn’t been the case for this tribe.

Not only could they bring out fine pottery, they also had a Beast King.

Although they didn’t have many people with them, based on the fact that they had a Beast King… As long as they didn’t do anything that would cause public outrage, nobody would come to provoke them. Even the Beast God Temple would leave them be.

However, there was a problem in this tribe–the people of this Beast King really didn’t show their Beast King much respect!

Before, the people who had chased after Zhu Zhu from the Giant Pig Tribe had also heard Zhu Zhan telling Zhu Zhu that the Big Bear Tribe had three Beast Kings, but those people had all been tossed to death by Hai Feng.

Zhu Yan and the others didn’t know that the Big Bear Tribe had three Beast Kings. They only knew that Hai Feng was a Beast King.

As for Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji… Both of them looked like they had only just reached adulthood, so they definitely couldn’t be that strong.

But two such youths dared to keep Hai Feng at their beck and call… Zhu Yan felt that Hai Feng must feel very dissatisfied.

As long as they were able to instigate something…

Zhu Yan and the people around him began to discuss this in whispered voices.

Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji were completely clueless about this.

Although Zhou Ji had his spiritual powers and could monitor the surrounding situation, he wasn’t interested in listening to everything and would only occasionally use his powers to sweep the area and ensure that they were safe.

There were no changes outside, so he was relaxed as he made food.

It had just rained yesterday, so a bowl of hot and spicy soup would be very welcome. Zhou Ji fried some chili peppers with oil, then boiled a pot of hot water for hot pot, tossing the bird meat into it to stew slowly while he cooked rice in a separate pot.

“There isn’t quite enough meat.” Zhou Ji said. Xiong Ye could eat a lot.

“I’ll go hunting!” Xiong Ye said.

“Get something delicious.” Zhou Ji said.

Xiong Ye agreed enthusiastically.

Ever since he’d become a Beast King, Xiong Ye’s animal form had become much larger. He now weighed over ten tons.

After his animal form became bigger, his fighting power had increased too, but it had become more inconvenient to take action. Generally, Xiong Ye wouldn’t use his animal form to hunt and would just go out in his human form.

Zhu Yan, who was watching everything that was going on, went over to find Hai Feng who was holding some roasted meat and feeding Xi Baobei.

“Lord Hai, you are the most powerful person I’ve ever seen. You’re really a great man worthy of admiration!” Zhu Yan started.

Hai Feng felt a little proud, but he soon let out a sigh, “You’ve seen too little of the world.” Although he was powerful, he wasn’t nearly as impressive as Zhou Ji…

“Your Lordship, you’re being too modest!” Zhu Yan said, “I don’t think there’s anyone in this world who can beat you!”

“Don’t talk nonsense. There are many people who are better than me in this world.” Hai Feng replied.

Generally, people would like to hear words of praise, but unexpectedly, Hai Feng wasn’t affected at all! Zhu Yan couldn’t quite understand and didn’t know how to flatter Hai Feng anymore–as a tribal chief, he had never had to flatter people before!

Just then, he watched as Hai Feng fed Xi Baobei with the roasted meat that the Big Bear Tribe had roasted for him and tried again, “Lord, your grandson is very good looking!”

“His looks aren’t bad.” Hai Feng was also very satisfied with Xi Baobei’s appearance. This child had red lips and white teeth, and looked particularly pleasing to the eye.

“He looks very much like you!” Zhu Yan continued.

Almost all parents liked being told that their child looked like them, even if they weren’t blood related… Hai Feng became even happier, “I think so too!”

Zhu Yan realized that he had really found a way to build up their relationship and continued, “I have several dozen children. I can share some child rearing techniques with Your Lordship.” Although he hadn’t spent much time with them, he had already discovered that there was something wrong with Xi Baobei’s brain–why would this child cry at the drop of a hat at his age if everything was normal? That was clearly why Xi Baobei was still addressed as a ‘child’ even though he was clearly much older.

Zhu Yan wanted to get closer to Hai Feng by making use of the common topic of children, but Hai Feng grew wary when he heard this instead, “You don’t need to speak to me about it… The children you raise don’t have good relationships with you at all, I’m not going to listen to you.” Zhu Zhan didn’t like this Zhu Yan!

After that, Hai Feng even added, “You aren’t good with children… You actually aren’t even good to your own children!” This Zhu Yan treated Zhu Zhan badly too!

Zhu Yan: “……”

Zhu Yan had originally wanted to get closer to Hai Feng so that he could talk about other things, but Hai Feng was clearly not cooperating, so he didn’t continue to mess around. “Your Lordship, you’re a Beast King. Why are you doing so many things on your own?”

“What kind of things?” Hai Feng asked.

“For example, feeding your grandson.” Zhu Yan said.

Hai Feng replied, “You really don’t know how to take care of children! Children must be taken care of personally. Otherwise, they won’t acknowledge you as their parents.” For example, his parents hadn’t really taken care of him, so he also hadn’t taken his parents seriously. Also, in the Beach Tribe… There had once been a woman who hadn’t been willing to take care of her child after she’d birthed them and had given the child to someone else to raise. Later on, that child had acknowledged other people as their parents and didn’t care about their birth mother at all.

Zhu Yan: “……”

Zhu Yan tried to continue, “You even tied us up personally and led us while we were walking… You shouldn’t have to do this kind of work at all.”

Hai Feng said, “I’m learning how to tie knots. As for leading you guys with me, who told me to be so strong? Those who are stronger need to work more.” It was because he was strong that Zhou Ji had always made him do work during the entire journey… sigh!

It turned out that this was how this Beast King thought! Zhu Yan said, “How could there be something like this in the world? Your Lordship, you don’t know what the lives of other Beast Kings are like!”

“How do other Beast Kings live?” Hai Feng was curious.

Zhu Yan said, “The Beast Kings acknowledged by the Beast God Temple will have their own large territory…”

Hai Feng shrank back as soon as he heard the three words ‘Beast God Temple’.

“The tribes in the Beast King’s territory need to pay tribute to the Beast King, like food or utensils. Beast Kings can enjoy the best of everything, and there are many people who are specifically responsible for taking care of the Beast King…”

That sounded very nice… Hai Feng asked, “How many Beast Kings does the Beast God Temple have?”

The Beast God Temple didn’t have any Beast Kings. Those Beast Kings had only been confirmed by the Beast God Temple… Hai Feng should be asking about how many Beast Kings the Beast God Temple had confirmed, right? Zhu Yan replied, “Nine.”

“They actually have nine?” Hai Feng was shaken.

Hai Feng had always been a little afraid of the Beast God Temple. Back then, the Beast God Temple had repeatedly tried to kill him, leaving him with a psychological shadow!

Now that he heard that the Beast God Temple had nine Beast Kings, he couldn’t help but shiver a little.

He had previously hidden himself in the sea, and it hadn’t been easy for the Beast Kings to deal with him, but he had now been brought onto land by Zhou Ji!

Not only would he not be able to deal with nine Beast Kings, maybe even one would be too much for him–his animal form might be big, but he couldn’t move on land!

In order not to be captured by the people of the Beast God Temple, he must follow Zhou Ji and Xiong Ye closely, particularly Zhou Ji.

He had learned from the people of the Big Bear Tribe that this Zhou Ji was the Beast God’s messenger and was blessed by the Beast God. Additionally, Zhou Ji was so powerful… He would definitely be fine if he followed Zhou Ji closely.

“Although there are already nine Beast Kings, there are still large stretches of territory that don’t have Beast Kings…” Zhu Yan wanted to tell Hai Feng about what kind of wonderful future he could have if he left the Big Bear Tribe and went to the Beast God Temple.

However, Hai Feng ignored him completely and instead went to pick up the remainder of the dinosaur meat he had hunted and brought back himself, running to the front of Zhu Yan’ s house and calling out to Zhou Ji, “Zhou Ji, do you want some of the dinosaur I caught?”

Zhou Ji replied, “The meat of this dinosaur doesn’t taste good. I don’t like it.”

“What kind of dinosaurs do you like to eat? I’ll catch you some next time?” Hai Feng inquired. He also suddenly thought of something, “Right, you like those strange things from the sea… I’ll definitely give you more of those next time we’re by the sea!”

Zhou Ji replied, “Alright.”

Seeing that Zhou Ji was so easy to talk to, Hai Feng was relieved. He gave the remaining dinosaur meat to the people of the Big Bear Tribe and went back to his own spot to continue eating.

Zhu Yan didn’t know what to say anymore.

When Hai Feng had gone to find that person called Zhou Ji just now, he had thought that Hai Feng had gotten angry and was ready for Hai Feng to smash apart Zhou Ji’s house with the remaining half of the dinosaur. Unexpectedly, Hai Feng had gone to deliver dinosaur meat over instead.

He hadn’t been angered by Zhou Ji’s bad attitude at all.

Was there something wrong with this Hai Feng? Did he like it when people didn’t treat him well?

While Zhu Yan was still thinking about this, Xiong Ye had already returned.

Zhou Ji was very picky about his food. Xiong Ye hadn’t caught any dinosaurs this time and had instead caught two devil frogs to bring back.

Before, he would use bait to catch this thing, but now he could catch them directly… Being a Beast King was great!

Xiong Ye happily carried the devil frogs back inside.

The people of the Giant Pig Tribe didn’t eat devil frogs.

This kind of animal had a very bad sounding name. Nobody wanted to have any sort of relationship with the devil and naturally wouldn’t eat devil frogs.

Seeing that the tribal chief of the Big Bear Tribe could only catch this kind of small thing, and that he would even consider eating this kind of thing… He clearly must not be very capable.

Xiong Ye had no idea that some people outside felt that he was incapable. He had already washed and peeled the devil frogs, and after he’d taken them back to Zhou Ji, he watched as Zhou Ji made quick work of cutting them apart, then threw half of the meat into the hot pot. “Let’s eat!”

Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji both ate quickly.

The hot pot was a little spicy, but it wasn’t too bad when paired with rice… Xiong Ye gulped down large mouthfuls of food at a time.

As for Zhou Ji, he wasn’t afraid of the spiciness at all. He simply added a few spoonfuls of hot pot soup into his rice and ate it like that.

This kind of soup with rich flavors was particularly tasty when eaten mixed with rice.

Zhou Ji and Xiong Ye finished of the birds that had been boiled soft in the hot pot along with the two devil frogs and a lot of vegetables, and felt very satiated from the meal.

Zhou Ji felt that having a large animal form was really great–he could eat a lot every day, and then go to sleep after eating without getting fat!

After eating, Zhou Ji called Xiong Ye over so that they could go to sleep together.

Xiong Ye lay down beside Zhou Ji.

Zhou Ji hugged him, and they kissed, and he even grasped the back of Xiong Ye’s head to deepen the kiss…

When the two of them finally separated, Zhou Ji discovered that he had a lot of hair on his hand.

He went to look at Xiong Ye’s head again and found that a lot of the short hairs had grown out on Xiong Ye’s head, and the hair that he’d had previously was falling out.

It was fine as long as he wasn’t going bald… Zhou Ji asked him, “Xiong Ye, are you changing your coat again?”

“Probably. It’s been hot recently.” Xiong Ye replied. “No wonder I felt a little itchy when I turned into my animal form. So it was because the new fur is growing out.”

“I’ll brush your fur tomorrow.” Zhou Ji said, then gave him another kiss.

Xiong Ye was puzzled, “Why not brush it today?”

“There’s other things to be done today.” Zhou Ji said. The soundproofing in this house was pretty good, and he and Xiong Ye didn’t have to make an excuse about going out to bathe in order to do a little something!

What things? Was Zhou Ji tired, did he want to go to sleep? Xiong Ye was thinking about this when he was pulled close by Zhou Ji and kissed again.

He realized what Zhou Ji wanted to do, and he really wanted to do it too…

While Zhou Ji and Xiong Ye were being intimate, Zhu Yan once again went up and tried to talk to Hai Feng.

“Lord, you’re such a powerhouse, but the people of the Big Bear Tribe don’t respect you at all!”

“They don’t disrespect me.” Hai Feng replied casually. He didn’t concern himself with Zhu Yan anymore–Xi Baobei had actually ignored him and gone off to play with Zhu Zhan’s daughter!

Hai Feng hurried over and watched as Zhu Zhan’s daughter tossed stones around to play with them. She threw two stones up in the air and rotated them, then did it again, having a lot of fun as she played.

Xi Baobei was also watching very seriously, “You’re really amazing!”

“Baobei, your grandfather is more amazing!” Hai Feng rushed up to show Xi Baobei his own expertise and tossed up a whole bunch of stones in one go.

This game reminded him of some memories from when he was a child, and he found it quite interesting.

Zhu Yan: “……” Was this Beast King also a little bit silly in the head like his grandson?

Otherwise, how could he be acting like this?

Zhu Yan felt extremely stifled. And when someone came in from outside to tell him that Zhu Zhan had taken over everything he had, he almost couldn’t hold back and wanted to vomit blood.

His position as tribal chief mustn’t get snatched away by Zhu Zhan!

Zhu Yan couldn’t sit still anymore and headed outside–his feet hadn’t been tied, and the rope on his hands had also become untied by now.

But he was brought back by Hai Feng before he could step outside.

Hai Feng said, “Zhou Ji already said that I had to keep watch over you guys. You can’t go out.”

Zhu Yan heard this and finally couldn’t take it anymore. “Are you crazy? You’re a Beast King, but you actually listen to a sick juvenile’s words!”

“Sick juvenile?” Hai Feng was surprised, “Who are you talking about?”

“Of course it’s that Zhou Ji!” Zhu Yan was really frustrated, “You’re a Beast King, a Beast King! Can’t you act a little more like one and not listen to some youth who has no ability at all?!”

Hai Feng: “… There’s something that you probably don’t know.”

“What?” Zhu Yan asked.

“Zhou Ji is also a Beast King.” Hai Feng said.

Zhu Yan: “!!!” How could that be!?

Hai Feng added, “He’s more powerful than I am.”

Zhu Yan: “!!!” This person must be lying to him! How could that person be a Beast King!

Hai Feng read his expression, “I’m not lying to you. Why would I listen to him if that wasn’t the case?”

Zhu Yan: “……”

“Oh, right. Xiong Ye… Is our tribal chief. He’s also a Beast King.” Hai Feng continued, “So, you shouldn’t think about running away.”

Zhu Yan almost spat out blood.
