371. Chapter 371: North Wasteland City

Once Notify Ju Jiao died, these warriors of Shoushan Village could be said to have been defeated like a mountain collapsing. Relying solely on that High Priest Mai Sui who understood magic was simply powerless to save the situation. Even if Li Yi didn't make a move, just his two exotic beasts alone could cause Shoushan Village to suffer heavy losses.

High Priest Mai Sui also understood this truth. Even if he was unwilling, he knew that Shoushan Village had lost this time.

"Stop, everyone stop, don't fight anymore."

Mai Sui, holding the emerald-green staff, walked forward with a complex expression.

The other Shoushan Village warriors saw Notify Ju Jiao die in battle and were already low in morale, with no heart to fight anymore. Hearing the High Priest say this, they all looked at him one after another.

Mai Sui looked at Li Yi, his gaze lingering on his flesh-shattered arm, the silver bones shining with strange brilliance, and he opened his mouth: "Outsider, you won this battle. We no longer have the strength to seek revenge on you. But as a descendant of the gods, I hope you can let these innocent people go. They just want to pursue a stable life and had no intention of offending you."

"Isn't it too late to say this now? Just a moment ago, you were the one shouting the loudest, telling Notify Ju Jiao to finish me off. Now you say you had no intention of offending? Do you think I'll believe you?" Li Yi stared at him and said.

"Then let my death resolve this grudge, how about that?" Mai Sui said.

Li Yi said: "Killing you is just a matter of one sentence. In my view, your life has no value."

Mai Sui said: "If you destroy Shoushan Village, no one will tell you where your companions were sold to. Moreover, the most powerful warriors in the village have all died at your hands, and coupled with the loss of a High Priest, they are destined to decline in the future and will have no strength to seek revenge on you. Moreover, I will also restrain them and let them put down today's grudges."

"You are a warrior carrying the god's bloodline; you should have a heart as broad as the gods and learn to forgive weak enemies."

"Then why didn't you forgive us when we were weak at that time?"

Li Yi sneered: "Now that you can't beat me, you want to beg for mercy? There's no such good thing in the world. The moment your Shoushan Village warriors attacked others outside, they should have been prepared for someone to come knocking. If you don't have the strength to crush everything, don't go around making enemies indiscriminately."

"If you want to beg for mercy, that's fine. In the entire Shoushan Village, excluding women, children, and the elderly, every adult warrior must break one arm as a punishment. At the same time, you, this High Priest, must also commit suicide to apologize. If you can do this, I can spare Shoushan Village once. Otherwise, in the next moment, the attack from the sky will be aimed at that ancient tree in the middle of Shoushan Village, and Shoushan Village will completely become history."

"You..." Mai Sui couldn't help but be angry upon hearing this excessive condition.

If all the warriors of Shoushan Village broke one arm, then their future livelihood would definitely be affected, and even hunting would be difficult.

But afterward, his anger leaked away, because at this moment, he no longer had the qualifications to negotiate.

"I agree to your condition, but I also hope you will keep your word." Mai Sui gritted his teeth and bit the bullet, agreeing to this harsh condition.

Li Yi said: "That depends on whether you can do what you promised. I don't have much time to give you; you'd better make a decision quickly. If you do it late, maybe I'll take back what I said before."

He scanned the others with a cold gaze.

Afterward, he called Shanyi and Niu Niu to retreat.

The two exotic beasts were very obedient to orders and soon returned to Li Yi's side. At this moment, the two exotic beasts were also injured, their bodies stained with blood, but it was nothing serious and they would recover soon.

Afterward, Li Yi looked at his injured arm, summoned the Thunder Fighter, and returned to the cockpit, released the Life Repair Capsule, and immediately repaired his body.

By the time he walked out of the Life Repair Capsule, his arm had already recovered as before.

And five minutes had passed.

Li Yi left the Thunder Fighter, intending to see the result of that High Priest Mai Sui's handling.

However, soon he smelled a pungent bloody odor.

Thick arms were falling to the ground, blood spraying. Those burly men were all enduring the severe pain without emitting a single cry, just helping each other stop the bleeding and bandage.

At the same time, that female warrior named Shan Guo was holding the blood-stained head of High Priest Mai Sui with both hands, holding it high, as if telling Li Yi that the people of Shoushan Village had kept their promise: all the warriors had broken one arm, and High Priest Mai Sui had also personally offered his head to apologize.

"You have let me witness barbarism, and also let me witness unyieldingness and tenacity."

Li Yi was shocked by this scene.

With one word from High Priest Mai Sui, everyone voluntarily broke an arm, and even he himself was willing to offer his head to calm this grudge.

For the sake of survival, the people of Shoushan Village could indeed abandon everything, including their own lives.

"Please keep your promise. Also, before the High Priest died, he said that your companions were all taken to North Wasteland City by a caravan. If you go there, perhaps you can find your companions." Shan Guo held the head and said loudly. Her eyes were filled with tears, but her face was full of stubbornness and strength.

"Since you have fulfilled the conditions, I will also keep my agreement. This matter ends here. I will not seek revenge on the people of Shoushan Village in the future. If the people of Shoushan Village cannot let go of today's grudges, you can seek revenge on me at any time, only you must consider the price of that revenge clearly."

Li Yi scanned the Shoushan Village warriors with his silver vertical pupils, and finally, his gaze fell on Shan Guo. After the warning was finished, he did not waste time lingering here, but turned around and walked toward the exotic beast Niu Niu behind him.

"Let's go, to North Wasteland City."

He flipped onto Niu Niu's back, then collected the Thunder Fighter into his storage magic treasure.

With an order.

Niu Niu raised its hooves and roared, then vented its violent power, galloping toward a direction in the north. Its speed was so fast it tore through the sky, rolling up a long white air wave, and in just a moment, it had disappeared from sight.

And Shanyi flapped its wings in the sky, following behind. Seeing Li Yi leave, Shan Guo felt her whole body relax, and she sat limply on the ground, then wailed loudly.

Shoushan Village had lost too much this day; they had lost their most powerful warrior, lost their High Priest, and even the others were injured, losing an arm. In the future, they really didn't know what to do.

But Li Yi was also a victim.

He now had to find a way to rescue his teammates.

This world is very large, and also very dangerous.

Li Yi wanted to rush to that North Wasteland City as soon as possible to complete the purpose of this trip, and then quickly leave this world. He didn't want to stay here for long. After all, the purpose of his trip was just to pick exotic fruits; he didn't want to cross dimensions to adventure at all, so he didn't have any preparations. If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have been attacked and captured in a daze.

Following the continuous running of the exotic beast Niu Niu.

After running for a full two hours, he finally saw the North Wasteland City that Shan Guo had mentioned.

It was a magnificent city standing on the vast land. This city didn't look like it was built by humans at all; the city wall was a full three or four hundred meters high, like a mountain, and the city was very large. At a glance, one couldn't see the end of the city wall, like a giant spreading its arms to encompass the entire world.

"In a world where gods exist, having such a city is normal." Li Yi exclaimed in his heart, but afterward, he felt relieved.

However, from this, it could be seen that the upper limit of martial power in this world must be extremely high, and powerhouses emerged one after another. With his bit of strength, he estimated he could only be cautious. If he accidentally provoked someone he shouldn't have, he estimated he wouldn't even know how he died.

So after entering this city, he must act low-key.

Li Yi didn't even bring the exotic beasts with him, but ordered Shanyi and Niu Niu to turn back along the original path, return to the forest in front of the canyon where the gods were buried, and after seeing people, not to make a move, try to hide themselves, and wait for him to return.

The two exotic beasts obeyed the order and soon turned and left.

Li Yi arranged it this way because he was worried that bringing the exotic beasts into the city would attract some unnecessary trouble.

After making these arrangements, he used Gang Qi to fly close to the ground, rushing toward that city.

The silver Gang Qi was brilliant and too eye-catching. In order not to attract attention, he chose to walk when approaching the city, even giving up flying. But this behavior of his still attracted the attention of a passing caravan.

That caravan was pulled by exotic beasts, galloping on the wide road. Those exotic beasts didn't know what kind of creatures they were; their bodies were huge, resembling both cows and horses. Even when galloping, they were steady, and their endurance was excellent. Even though they had come from afar, covered in dust, they didn't show the slightest fatigue.

In the middle of the caravan was a wide bronze carriage, carved with various exotic beasts, gorgeous and ancient, with a canopy on top.

A middle-aged man wearing dark clothes was kneeling in the carriage. At this moment, he saw Li Yi flying while using silver Gang Qi, and his eyes lit up: "It's actually a God-Blood Warrior who has awakened. Qi, go, invite him."

"Yes, Master."

Afterward, a warrior named Qi riding an exotic beast galloped away.

Li Yi also noticed this point at this moment, and his expression tightened.

Soon.

That warrior Qi riding the exotic beast had already arrived in front of Li Yi. He got off his mount, then used a strange posture to salute, and said very politely: "This God-Blood Warrior, my master invites you."

Li Yi looked at the warrior in front of him. Just intuition told him that this person's strength was even stronger than that person named Notify Ju Jiao in Shoushan Village.

Being able to order someone of such strength, and possessing such a large caravan, he feared he wasn't a simple person. Being targeted by such a person wasn't a good thing for Li Yi.

It was just that he had just arrived in North Wasteland City and knew nothing about this place. He didn't want to rashly offend an unknown person, so he immediately said: "Alright, let's go together."

Warrior Qi said respectfully: "Guest, please take a seat."

Li Yi hesitated, but still nodded and sat on this mount.

Soon, warrior Qi greeted the mount to move immediately, carrying Li Yi back to the caravan, while he himself ran with large strides behind, and arrived in front of that bronze carriage first.

"Master, the guest has come."

"Good, let the carriage stop first."

This middle-aged man ordered, then he got off the bronze carriage, saluted Li Yi, and then said: "My name is Xiu Xiang, the master of this caravan. Please don't take offense at my presumptuous invitation."

Li Yi got off the mount at this moment, then learned to salute him as well, and immediately made up a fake name: "My name is Lord Dayi, from Shoushan Village. Thank you for your invitation."

"Shoushan Village Lord Dayi? I passed through Shoushan Village last year and didn't see that Shoushan Village had a God-Blood Warrior." Xiu Xiang had some doubts.

"I followed the ancient bloodline and memories to that canyon where the gods sleep, and only recently settled in Shoushan Village." Li Yi said. He made up a reasonable identity in order to better integrate into this world and avoid attracting others' suspicion.

"So that's how it is. No wonder your God-Blood aura is somewhat familiar. Your ancestor was actually a god who fell in the North Wasteland." This Xiu Xiang suddenly realized, and at the same time revealed a bit of respect for Li Yi. ===== CHAPTER 369 =====
