(Third Update) 870: Chapter 880: The Fisher Girl!
(Third Update) “It’s the High Priest, the High Priest sent to find you!” Robert shouted loudly.
“Who is the High Priest?” Tang Zhong asked coldly.
“Let go of first, I’ll tell you!
I’m in pain!” Robert scread.
“Who gave you permission to negotiate with ?” Tang Zhong retorted icily.
Robert’s body reacted more violently.
At this mont, Robert was in even greater pain.
The person in front of him was not just a man but a true demon.
He didn’t dare provoke this demon any longer.
“I’ll tell you!
I’ll tell you everything!
The High Priest is the High Priest of Lucao Kingdom’s national religion!” Robert quickly shouted.
“National religion?” Tang Zhong asked in surprise.
“It’s called the Order of the Witch Master, and the High Priest is the most important figure in the Order!” Robert explained.
“And what stone are you searching for?
Is it the one on the paper?” Tang Zhong continued questioning.
“The High Priest sent to find it.
I don’t even know—please let go!
I really don’t know!” Robert pleaded.
“When I’m speaking to you calmly, do not make change!” Tang Zhong’s eyes narrowed into slits.
Upon hearing these words, Robert felt as though he had fallen into an icy abyss.
The man beside him was not a human; he was a demon.
Robert had never experienced anything like this before and looked extrely pale.
“I’ll tell you…
I’ll tell you everything!
That stone’s abilities were explained by the High Priest.
He told to go to Xuan Country to find it.
The High Priest is like a god; he knows everything.
If you have any questions, go find him—he’ll know everything,” Robert said.
“That’s all I know.
Please, I beg you, let go!” Robert shouted, his voice trembling.
He was truly terrified now.
Who was this High Priest, to have divined so many details?
It was truly strange.
It seed Tang Zhong needed to go to Lucao Kingdom to see for himself.
“I’ve told you everything!
Let go!” Robert was on the verge of tears.
“Heh!” Tang Zhong sneered coldly before slamming his foot down abruptly.
Letting go of an enemy was sothing Tang Zhong could never do.
Under Tang Zhong’s foot, Robert imdiately burst into a bloody pulp.
It seed that no valuable information could be extracted from Robert.
He had to find the High Priest.
If the High Priest had sent Robert to find the stone, then he must know what it is.
With that, Tang Zhong’s next destination beca Lucao Kingdom, a country filled with nurous servants.
Separated from Xuan Country by the vast North Sea!
Tang Zhong would have to take a boat to reach Lucao Kingdom.
Boarding an ordinary passenger ship to travel the North Sea route connecting Xuan Country and Lucao Kingdom, Tang Zhong found a spot and closed his eyes to rest.
For Tang Zhong, as long as he hadn’t completely found all eight stones, his cultivation could never be stopped.
Currently, the Blood Soul Transformation had been achieved, but the Soul Transformation was still incomplete.
The Dragon Soul Transformation consisted of nine phases, and he had only reached the second!
The Soul Transformation would allow his soul to be strong enough to sense everything within a thousand ters.
However, Tang Zhong could barely detect a hundred ters around him, let alone anything more.
Thus, Tang Zhong needed to cultivate to beco stronger.
On the ship, there were all kinds of people—those traveling to the Hua-Fei border, fishern preparing to fish, and even students going abroad.
From poverty to wealth, the ship held people of all statuses.
Tang Zhong could sense their locations by their weak souls.
If he released a soul suppression now, these people might all go mad.
As Tang Zhong focused on his cultivation, a small voice suddenly reached him: “Big brother…
are you hungry?”
Tang Zhong imdiately withdrew his soul energy and turned to look.
Next to him stood a little girl, a Xuan Country native, approximately nine years old.
Her clothes, though not luxurious, were very clean.
Her face was fresh and delicate, her hair tied into two little braids.
The little girl smiled as she approached Tang Zhong, holding out her hand with a piece of cornbread!
Her clean and pure smile was as refreshing as a gentle breeze.
Tang Zhong smiled and instinctively replied, “Just a little hungry!”
“You’re lying, big brother!
Your stomach was growling just now!” the little girl laughed.
Growling…
At that instant, Tang Zhong’s stomach let out another loud rumble.
He chuckled awkwardly—she was right—he was indeed very hungry.
“Here, take it.
Just don’t dislike it!” The little girl handed Tang Zhong the cornbread.
“My family made these stead buns!”
“Sure!” Tang Zhong smiled, taking the cornbread.
It had been a long ti since he’d eaten sothing like this.
“It’s a little sweet!” Tang Zhong said after taking a bite.
“Of course!
My grandma knows I like sweet things, so she added extra sugar to the cornbread!” the little girl explained.
“I see.
Your grandma is quite good to you.
But why aren’t you sitting?” Tang Zhong asked in surprise.
He had noticed that the little girl had been standing the entire ti despite the many empty seats behind her.
The ship sailed across the sea as others on the deck admired the view.
“I don’t want to sit; I’m afraid of making the seats dirty!” the little girl replied with a smile.
“What…” Tang Zhong was speechless.
“Who told you that?”
“My grandpa…” the little girl answered proudly.
“And who is your grandpa?” Tang Zhong asked.
“We’re from a small island on the North Sea.
We’re fishern.
We frequently go to sea, so our bodies sll like fish.
Since this is a passenger ship, it’s bad if we make others sll the fish odor—sotis the crew even scold us and warn us not to sit!” the little girl explained.
This reasoning…
Tang Zhong felt a pang in his heart.
Did being a fisherman an being treated so poorly?
“What’s your na?” Tang Zhong asked.
“I’m Xiao Jiu.
Brother, are you full?
If you’re not, I have more.
My grandma packed a lot of stead buns for and grandpa this ti!” the little girl said with a bright smile.
Like a little angel.
Dirty?
“Co sit here!” Tang Zhong pointed to the seat next to him for Xiao Jiu.
“I can’t; the Lucao Kingdom crew will scold .
They’re very an!” Xiao Jiu replied, her face turning slightly pale at the mory.
“Don’t be afraid!” Tang Zhong said with a smile.
“I’ll see who dares to scold you!”
Xiao Jiu, who had been resisting the urge to sit all along, looked at him with wide eyes.
“Really?”
“Of course!” Tang Zhong smiled.
Encouraged by Tang Zhong’s words, Xiao Jiu no longer hesitated and sat down on the seat.
She almost collapsed into it—it was that comfortable.
As soon as she was seated, she almost fell asleep.
Tang Zhong looked at Xiao Jiu with mixed emotions.
Standing for fear of dirtying the ship—being a fisherman, must she endure such treatnt?
Just then, from the deck, a scruffy old man entered the cabin.
His eyes imdiately landed on Xiao Jiu, who was sitting, and he rushed over in panic.
“Xiao Jiu, wake up quickly!
The Lucao Kingdom crew will trouble you later!”
The scruffy old man, despite his disheveled hair and worn grass sandals, had no unpleasant odor.
His clothes, though worn, were clean.
Tang Zhong said imdiately, “Sir, it’s okay.
Let Xiao Jiu rest here for a while—she’s tired.”
