Chapter 2561: then translation of chapter title
Looking at the people eating, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe spirit child wailed incessantly, his cry a miserable one.
But the people around him, not a single one paid him any heed.
Only after more than half the people had finished eating and gotten up to leave did Zhao Lao swallow his last mouthful of food, then he brought people to stand before him and asked lightly.
"Have you thought it through? Are you willing to speak?"
"Willing, willing, as long as you give me a bite to eat, I'll say anything."
"When I was two, I traded my father's precious sword for money, and gave ………………………"
"When I was three, I sneaked into the women's quarters of the clan and hid under the bed ………………「
Without Zhao Lao even needing to ask, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe spirit child, like pouring beans from a bamboo tube, voluntarily recounted everything he had done from childhood onward, one by one.
Just hearing these words, Zhao Lao's face darkened, and he couldn't help but curse.
"Who the hell asked you about this?"
As for this Heavenly Spirit Tribe spirit child, when he was young he hid under the bed, sneaked into the women's toilet, stole the clan's treasures, and had an unspeakable secret with the old widow next door.
Zhao Lao wasn't interested in any of those matters.
"Bring him here."
After tossing out that sentence, Zhao Lao turned and walked away; not long after, this Heavenly Spirit Tribe spirit child was brought into the cabin of one of the immortal ships.
Zhao Lao sat arrogantly in the chair, and on the table beside him sat a bowl of food, piled high, heaped to a point.
Upon seeing that bowl of food, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe spirit child's eyes lit up instantly, saliva pattering onto the ground.
After watching his eyes fixed tightly on the big bowl, Zhao Lao spoke lightly.
"Have you thought it through? Are you willing to speak?"
"Willing, willing."
Hearing that, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe spirit child hesitated not at all, immediately nodding repeatedly.
His gaze never left that bowl of food from start to finish.
Regarding this, Zhao Lao asked seemingly casually.
"Why are you in the Mining Domain?"
Hearing that, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe spirit child froze, appearing somewhat hesitant.
After all, he now dare not tell anyone this secret; who knows what the Human Race would do if they learned of it.
Seeing this, Zhao Lao didn't waste words, made a move to get up, and even lifted the rice bowl away.
"Take him away, keep grinding him, let's start with three days."
"Three days? Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe spirit child went numb on the spot; this meal alone was unbearable, and another three days? This isn't fucking trying to kill him?"
At that moment, he didn't have time to think further, and just blurted out.
"I'll talk, I'll talk; I came to cooperate with the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, preparing to join forces to deal with you."
He was also forced into a hurry, so even the words he spoke came out without any cultivator's filter, just blurted.
"Huh???"
Upon hearing these words, the few people in the room all froze, staring at each other.
"Join forces with the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon to deal with us?"
You brat, how arrogant, to say that so outright; moreover, this is still Human Race territory, you truly aren't afraid of death, are you?
For a moment, everyone looked at the Heavenly Spirit Tribe spirit child with ill intentions.
Sensing those hostile gazes upon him, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe spirit child was also startled.
Oh no, I seem to have misspoken.
At once he hurriedly tried to make amends.
"It's you who made me speak; I'm not lying to you, you ………………………"
"Continue speaking."
He was genuinely afraid that these Human Race folks, in a fit of anger, would just kill him outright; after all, according to his earlier words, he stood on the side of the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, making him an enemy of these Human Race cultivators.
Fortunately, upon hearing this, Zhao Lao became interested, and instead stopped the others, gesturing for him to continue.
Whether they join forces or not doesn't matter; this person is already in our hands, so what's the point of talking about joining forces?
First, let's hear what this brat has to say.
Faced with Zhao Lao's gaze, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe spirit child steeled himself and then recounted the whole story in detail.
Starting from when he learned that Yuheng Shen went to the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens to cooperate with the Human Race in order to vie for status within the clan.
As a fellow Heavenly Spirit Tribe spirit child, he naturally wasn't willing to just watch Yuheng Shen rise like that.
So, upon learning that the Human Race was helping Yuheng Shen to exterminate the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons in this spirit crystal mine, he secretly came here alone.
And he even got there before the Human Race, seeing that Demon God in the spirit crystal mine.
Relying on his ability to seal off this spirit crystal mine, he wanted to cooperate with it.
Unfortunately, it didn't succeed; later, the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon suffered another crushing defeat in its great war against the Human Race.
He even went so far as to beg for his life, asking him to seal the spirit crystal mine to keep the Human Race out, in order to preserve himself.
In the end, the Human Race inexplicably hooked him out of the Mining Domain, and then he ended up like this.
He related the entire affair, every detail, without omission.
After hearing the Heavenly Spirit Tribe spirit child's words, everyone present had strange expressions; as for Zhao Lao, his eyes lit up as he said.
"Oh, you can seal this spirit crystal mine?"
"Yes, this is also something I, the junior, happened to obtain; after all, this spirit crystal mine had always belonged to our Heavenly Spirit Tribe."
Having said this much, there was naturally no need to continue hiding anything; this Heavenly Spirit Tribe spirit child simply nodded in reply.
As for Zhao Lao, this was absolutely an unexpected delight.
This little guy before me actually has the ability to seal off this immortal crystal mine; in that case, wouldn't it be possible to block off this group of extraterrestrial heavenly demon ingredients?
By then, we won't have to worry about these ingredients escaping at all.
The reason we previously rushed to attack the Mining Domain was to seize control of its entrance and completely seal it off.
Isn't it just because we're worried these extraterrestrial heavenly demons will escape?
These are all ingredients; how could we let them get away?
But now, with this little guy before me, the extraterrestrial heavenly demon ingredients in this immortal crystal mine definitely won't be able to escape.
Even if that demon god ingredient can't be killed in one go, we can just try a few more times.
As long as we seal off this immortal crystal mine, there's nothing to worry about.
For a moment, Zhao Lao's gaze toward this Heavenly Spirit Tribe spirit child burned hot involuntarily.
That look was as if he were gazing at a peerless beauty, making one unable to let go.
That scorching gaze made this Heavenly Spirit Tribe spirit child feel somewhat unable to withstand it, and he asked weakly.
"Senior, you………………… you still have any questions, just speak up; you're looking at me like that, I have no idea."
He really felt creeped out from being stared at, and in response, Zhao Lao suddenly broke into a grin, his smile gentle, he pushed the big bowl in his hand toward him and said with a smile.
"What are you saying? My Human Race and the Heavenly Spirit Tribe have been on good terms for generations; old me wouldn't harm you, come on, if you're hungry, eat."
Huh???
Watching Zhao Lao's sudden change in attitude, this Heavenly Spirit Tribe spirit child grew increasingly fearful, merely looking at the bowl that had been brought before him.
Although afraid, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and this Heavenly Spirit Tribe spirit child still steeled himself to take it, whereupon he began to eat heartily.
