Chapter 1169

~6 min read 1,180 words

It was somewhat strange, but the group still maneuvered the starship to descend slowly.

At this moment, those humans also noticed the Daoyi Sect's starship. While shouting "Oh, oh, oh," a portion of them also split off to glare at the starship, clearly filled with wariness.

They couldn't understand their language at all, and the next second, long spears were shot straight toward the starship.

"Activate the array."

These spears possessed immense power. Even though the starship was still at an altitude of several hundred meters, the spears struck the array without losing any speed.

The tremendous force caused ripples to spread across the array.

Fortunately, Qi Xiong had activated the array first; otherwise, the starship would likely have been damaged.

"To be able to achieve this with just their physical bodies..."

Looking at these humans below, Qin Long, who was a body cultivator, said with great interest.

Although their physical strength was nothing compared to his, one had to remember that this was an isolated island.

Moreover, these people seemingly lacked any systematic cultivation methods, yet even so, they could temper their bodies to such a degree—it was quite interesting.

The starship did not stop and continued to descend. In response, the humans below became even angrier, howling incessantly while continuing to fire their spears.

"What are they saying? I can't understand a word. How are we supposed to communicate?"

Xu Jie looked at the humans below who were jumping with rage and said, speechless.

They didn't even know what they were saying; what were they to do?

The others didn't understand these humans' language either. As the starship slowly landed, a group of savages surrounded them, their faces full of wariness.

"What do we do now? Use force?"

It wouldn't be difficult to subdue these savages, but there was no need, and even less reason to do so.

"I'll go try."

At this moment, Ye Changqing spoke up. Hearing this, the group was startled and immediately tried to stop him.

"Changqing, kid, what are you doing? Let Xu Jie go."

"Right, right, right, I'll go, I'll go."

One could see the intense hostility in these people's eyes; how could they let Ye Changqing put himself in danger?

But facing their persuasion, Ye Changqing smiled.

"You all are underestimating me too much. I'm at the Nascent Soul Realm, at least; they pose no threat."

Ye Changqing wasn't worried about these people. Hearing this, the others felt it made sense, but they were still uneasy. In the end, Xu Jie shamelessly followed Ye Changqing as they walked off the starship.

As soon as the two stepped off the starship, they were met with countless spears, but Xu Jie easily blocked them all.

"How truly annoying."

"Alright, after all, we are outsiders; it's normal for them to be on guard."

Pushing through the spear attacks all the way to the group, Ye Changqing discovered that these people were dressed very primitively, wearing mostly animal skins that only covered their vital parts.

"Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh..."

Facing Ye Changqing and the other, the group of humans kept howling, and they couldn't understand what it meant at all.

"What now?"

Xu Jie had no idea what to do; how were they supposed to communicate?

However, Ye Changqing had already thought it through. He took several bags of dry rations from his spatial ring, heated them with spiritual power, and reached out to offer them to the humans.

Sometimes, a delicious meal could build a bridge of communication.

Sure enough, smelling the aroma of the food, the humans quickly quieted down, their eyes fixed intently on the rations before them.

After hesitating for a moment, one of them, who appeared to be the leader, cautiously took a bite.

Their eyes widened abruptly, and after letting out two incredulous howls, they began to eat heartily.

Seeing this, the others also rushed forward.

Their table manners were very crude, but watching these humans attracted by the delicious food, Ye Changqing still smiled.

"See, that works."

Xu Jie curled his lips helplessly; indeed, no one in this world could refuse delicious food.

After finishing the meal, the way these humans looked at Ye Changqing and the others became a bit softer.

Although there was still wariness, it was much lighter than before.

"It really worked, but what do we do next?"

Seeing the major shift in the humans' attitude after just one meal, Xu Jie couldn't help but exclaim.

But they still couldn't communicate.

Just as the two were troubled by this matter, a figure walked out from the woods behind them and spoke.

"A small isolated island, I'm afraid I will have to disappoint you all."

Huh???

Hearing this voice, Xu Jie and Ye Changqing were both startled. Damn, they can speak?

Looking toward the sound, the two were stunned to see a refined man, also dressed in animal skins, walking out of the woods.

One could tell the difference between this man and the others at a glance; they didn't look like the same type of people at all.

Yet, with the appearance of the refined man, the group of people before them cleared a path, while also whispering "oh, oh."

To this, the refined man replied in the same language.

Seeing this scene, Ye Changqing and Xu Jie were full of question marks. What was going on?

It was unclear what the refined man said to the group, but they quickly retreated a distance, while the refined man came alone to stand before Ye Changqing and the other.

"Dharma Aspect Realm cultivation?"

From this refined man, Xu Jie sensed the presence of spiritual power. This guy was a cultivator, completely different from the others.

And the refined man also looked at Ye Changqing and the other, saying:

"This is just an ordinary isolated island, and the people living here are cut off from the world. There are no treasures on the island, so I'm afraid I will have to disappoint you all."

The refined man's tone was peaceful. Hearing this, Ye Changqing cupped his hands in a salute and said:

"Fellow Daoist, you misunderstand. We are just curious and have no special purpose, nor do we wish to harm anyone. Observing your speech, you are not a native of this island, are you?"

It was very obvious that the refined man was different from the others, and hearing Ye Changqing's words, the man breathed a sigh of relief.

He could feel the terror of this group; apart from Ye Changqing, there wasn't a single person among them he could handle.

Especially Qi Xiong and Yu Mo; he couldn't see through them at all, and couldn't even sense any spiritual fluctuations.

This could only mean that the gap between the two sides was too great—so great that he wasn't even qualified to make contact.

If these people wanted to take action against the people on the island, they would have no power to fight back at all.

But now, hearing Ye Changqing say they had no malicious intent, the man naturally relaxed a little.
