Ch54 – Teaching

When Xiong Ye was picked up just like that, he rather doubted his life and existence––his animal form was so strong, but there was actually someone who could pick him up so easily?

He immediately roared and began to struggle to try to resist while looking at the person who had grabbed ahold of him. After he saw who it was, all his resistance disappeared.

He recognized the person who was carrying him. Wasn’t this the person who had suddenly killed off all those knotted millipedes just as they were about to kill him, and then run off into the mountain and uprooted an entire forest, leaving dead countless dinosaurs and knotted millipedes in his wake?

His resistance was doomed to be useless. Since that was the case, what was the point in struggling?

He even tried to yell but no sound came out from his throat…

Xiong Ye was well-behaved as he was carried, and at the same time, he also began to consider if he should transform into his human form so that the other party would have an easier time carrying him… But it didn’t seem necessary––it probably wouldn’t make any difference to that person if he was fifty kilograms or five hundred.

The other thing to consider was that the other party was carrying him by the fur on the nape of his neck right now. If he turned back into his human form on the spot, how would this person hold on to him?

Xiong Ye’s head swirled with wild thoughts, and then he discovered that he had already been carried outside the tribe.

The people of the tribe hadn’t noticed at all!

This person was really strong! He wondered who was stronger; this person or the one who had taken away Shi Li.

The first time Xiong Ye had seen this person, he had determined that he was not the man who was supposed to be Zhou Ji’s father––the person who had taken Shi Li away hadn’t been this tall.

He probably hadn’t been as powerful as this person either.

He just didn’t know why this person had taken him away from the tribe…

While Xiong Ye was still pondering this, he found himself tossed onto a gra.s.sy meadow.

It couldn’t really be called ‘tossed’. Although this person had made a ‘tossing’ motion, there was no impact when Xiong Ye landed, and it felt as though he had been set down gently.

Xiong Ye almost instantly turned back into his human form––his animal form couldn’t speak, and his human form was more convenient.

Then, as soon as he became human again, he heard the person opposite him let out a cold snort. It was particularly audible in the quiet night environment.

Xiong Ye was suddenly a little worried, concerned that he had maybe done something wrong and angered the other party.

n.o.body in the tribe had mentioned this person who had suddenly appeared and destroyed an entire mountain over the past few days.

The priest felt that this man should be the person that the one who had taken away Shi Li was searching for, and as for why this mystery man had destroyed a forest… Perhaps he had just felt like it.

Regardless of whether it was Xiang Tian or this mystery man, they couldn’t afford to provoke them, so they simply acted as though these two people didn’t exist and didn’t mention them at all.

Although they didn’t mention him, the tribespeople were a little scared of this person.

After all, they had brought back a lot of meat, and the meat had all looked terrible on the surface.

A person who had suddenly gone out to kill so many dinosaurs and insects was someone they couldn’t help but fear.

He couldn’t resist snorting coolly. Seeing that Xiong Ye had stopped moving and began to worry, he started to be concerned that Xiong Ye might be afraid of him.

He intended to use this ident.i.ty to teach Xiong Ye how to make use of that energy, and take the opportunity to help Xiong Ye heal. If Xiong Ye was scared of him, things would become more difficult.

Zhou Ji could be a person who had received the Beast G.o.d’s blessing, but he couldn’t partic.i.p.ate in fights. So, having him appear ‘weak’ was a good thing. He could use a completely different ident.i.ty to teach Xiong Ye.

A lot of ideas flashed through Zhou Ji’s mind, and he was just thinking about how to start talking to Xiong Ye when he saw Xiong Ye bend over to kneel on the gra.s.s and say, “Lord, thank you for saving me!”

Zhou Ji responded very quickly. Even before Xiong Ye could kneel down, a burst of energy pushed out towards Xiong Ye, causing him to end up sitting on the ground instead.

Zhou Ji said, “Don’t come too close to me. Sit and talk.” He had wrapped a layer of energy around himself when he had taken Xiong Ye outside. Now, when his voice came out through that layer of energy, it sounded totally different from his own voice.

Xiong Ye was a little unaccustomed to having the other party standing while he was still sitting, but since the other party had already said so, he could only remain sitting. His expression was full of worship as he said, “Lord, you’re really too amazing! You’re the most powerful person I’ve ever met.”

That was for sure… There had been no powerhouses near the Big Bear Tribe. And he had been in a frenzied state, which had allowed his fighting power to increase by a lot… Zhou Ji looked at Xiong Ye’s excited expression and suddenly discovered that he had been worried for nothing.

What he had done that day should have frightened anyone, but Xiong Ye obviously wasn’t one of them.

It was pretty good this way…

Zhou Ji looked at Xiong Ye, “Do you want to become as powerful as I am?”

“Yes.” Xiong Ye didn’t hesitate at all.

Of course he wanted to be as powerful as this man! If he could really become this strong, he would laugh himself awake even in his dreams!

“I can teach you.” Zhou Ji said.

Xiong Ye really suspected that he was dreaming.

His luck had really been particularly good recently.

After Shi Li broke off their relationship, he had immediately found a better mate than Shi Li, and his new mate was beloved by the Beast G.o.d.

When he encountered danger, he had been saved.

Now, the person who had saved him was willing to teach him how to become stronger!

Xiong Ye wanted to kneel again. As he moved, he called out, “Thank you, Lord!”

Zhou Ji sent over another burst of energy. “Sit down properly!”

Xiong Ye didn’t dare to move again. He then watched as that man came over and placed his hand on his head, as though wanting to… rub it?

It was probably just an illusion.

Xiong Ye felt that he must have been wrong, because he soon discovered that there was a warm current rushing out of the other party’s hand and into his body, moving through in a very familiar and comfortable way.

His wounds instantly stopped hurting wherever that warm current pa.s.sed through.

Xiong Ye was shocked. He then heard that man say, “Try and do it again on your own.”

Xiong Ye calmed down and began to try and circulate that energy within his body on his own.

Zhou Ji saw that he was trying and took back his hand, watching him quietly from a distance.

This method was something he had only just come up with. It hadn’t been perfected yet, but he could let Xiong Ye cultivate with it first. If he found any problems with it in the future, he could continue to adjust it.

In any case, he could keep an eye on the situation at any time.

Xiong Ye cultivated for a long time, and it seemed like he wouldn’t stop. However, he heard that person interrupt, “Turn into your animal form.”

Xiong Ye obediently changed back into his animal form and was picked up once again…

He had once been carried like this when he had first taken on his animal form, but he had never been treated like this since then… It was really a long-lost nostalgic feeling!

Xiong Ye was brought back to the tribe and ‘tossed’ into the valley. Before that person left, he only left behind two sentences: “Wait for me outside tomorrow.”

“Don’t tell anyone about my existence!”

Xiong Ye was in his animal form at the time and couldn’t answer, but he remembered it clearly.

He understood that this matter definitely couldn’t be told to others, even though he really wanted to…

Xiong Ye climbed back into his own cave. When he climbed, he felt that his legs were much improved.

.

If this went on, the wounds on his body would most likely be completely healed by the time they set out!

Xiong Ye grew happy when he thought of this, and he climbed back into bed with Zhou Ji after he entered the cave, giving Zhou Ji a kiss––now that he could have greater strength, he would definitely be able to protect Zhou Ji!

Zhou Ji was so good that even the Beast G.o.d liked him. There definitely wouldn’t be trouble on the way to trade for salt!

Zhou Ji turned around and pulled Xiong Ye into his arms.

Dawn was coming, but Xiong Ye was injured and didn’t have to do anything within the tribe, so he could sleep for a while longer.

This time, Xiong Ye practically fell asleep as soon as he lay down, and he slept particularly well.

Early the next morning, the tribe filled with the delicious smell of boiled earth eggs.

For the first time, Zhou Ji was actually interested in the food the tribe had collectively prepared for everyone. He went with Xiong Ye down into the valley to eat freshly harvested earth eggs. They also watched as the priest performed chants and dances in praise of the Beast G.o.d.

These earth eggs were something he had created, so these chants and dances were actually done for his sake. Since that was the case, although the dancing and chanting were a little hard to watch, he could still take a look…

After eating earth eggs in the morning, Xiong He also gave everyone a portion of earth eggs before storing away the rest.

Earth eggs could be kept for two months if they were simply left there. If they boiled the earth eggs, then turned them into a paste and let it dry, they could be preserved for even longer.

Therefore, these earth eggs should be saved up and eaten slowly later on.

On that day, the people of the tribe still didn’t go out hunting. Xiong He had the hunting team prepare all kinds of things that could be used to trade for salt, and also had the collection team go out and plant more earth eggs.

Zhou Ji said that the Beast G.o.d had taught him how to plant earth eggs. The priest intended to have the people of the tribe give it a try.

Of course, the priest didn’t forget to call Zhou Ji over when he tried out this method.

Earth eggs were very similar to potatoes, but they weren’t exactly potatoes. Zhou Ji hadn’t researched agricultural cultivation very much and couldn’t really put forth that many suggestions.

However, the people of this era knew nothing about planting. They didn’t even know about plowing the soil, so all of his opinions were precious.

“The fertilizer has to be diluted in water before it is used.”

“The soil should be turned over. It’s harder to plant things in solid dirt.”

“Pull the weeds out wherever you see them.”

“Don’t plant everything together, s.p.a.ce it out!”

“Use the larger earth eggs when planting instead of the small ones.”

“When the earth eggs begin to sprout, you can split apart the bud and plant it again separately.”

……

Zhou Ji sat on some leaves at the edge of the planting grounds and occasionally put forth a few suggestions.

The people of the gathering team did everything they were told.

These weren’t opinions put forth by Zhou Ji, these were suggestions given by the Beast G.o.d!

Since the Beast G.o.d had said so, they definitely had to do it!

They just didn’t understand why the Beast G.o.d had chosen Zhou Ji to deliver the message… The people of the gathering team were as confused as the priest, but after thinking about it back and forth––perhaps it was because Zhou Ji was so good-looking?

Within their tribe, Zhou Ji was definitely the best-looking man. He was tall with broad shoulders and deep facial features.

Only, it was a waste he was so good looking and had such a seemingly strong figure, since those who hadn’t awakened an animal form couldn’t do anything.

Couldn’t everyone see that they were here sweating out buckets while he just remained by the side weaving rope?

The head of the gathering team looked at Zhou Ji with sympathy in her gaze and finally found a sense of superiority.

Juurensha: ….I sense secret ident.i.ty shenanigans, and this could be fun….

xiin: ZJ’s thing about naked XY… ah, possessiveness.
