233: Chapter 192 Blood Vengeance Envoy Arrives_3 233: Chapter 192 Blood Vengeance Envoy Arrives_3 The atmosphere expansive and majestic, his steps deliberate yet unhurried, each stride covering several meters.
His square face, serene as still water, betrayed a hint of worry.
A rich aroma of meat wafted across the field.
A terrifyingly large leg of a beast was impaled on a steel spear, roasting over the fire, with fat periodically dripping and sizzling.
Seeing that the pigskin had turned golden brown, Zong Shou carefully brushed a layer of sesame oil on it and applied some spices, making the delicious smell even more tempting.
The four-ton Wild Toothed Pig was divided into several portions.
At least half of it fed a named Stepping Cloud Colt, the Horned Cloud Horse, which was relishing its mix of yellow bean fodder.
Only three legs remained, and apart from the one still roasting, Yiin Yang and Su Chuxue each held one, eating voraciously and dripping with grease.
The former still maintained a modicum of decorum while eating, but the latter disregarded her image completely, as if she wished she could swallow the bones too.
She chomped and gnawed, all the while gazing at Zong Shou with eyes full of admiration.
Young Master’s grilling skills have improved a lot compared to before—”
Her voice was muffled, almost inaudible if one wasn’t paying attention.
But Zong Shou couldn’t help but smile, Chuxue was his maid, born of the Tiger Cat lineage, a branch of the demon clan.
Although beautiful, she was naturally gluttonous and restless.
She appeared calm and elegant, like a well-born lady, but she could hardly stay idle for a quarter of an hour.
Especially when eating, her behavior always surprised people.
Although named Su Chuxue, besides her skin being as fair as snow, nothing else about her character or temperament related to the name.
As for the so-called demon clan, according to records from later generations, they were the descendants of ancient ancestors who, to combat the ravaging Alien Barbaric Beasts of the world, blended the blood of powerful mutant beasts into their own to increase their combat prowess.
But when that era of carnage ended, these people were shunned by humanity, so they simply formed their own tribe, hence the origin of the demon clan.
Thousands of years later, this clan was nearly extinct, and Zong Shou had only seen them in a game.
He casually cut a piece of the roasted meat with the dagger in his hand and ate leisurely.
Zong Shou’s gaze then inadvertently shifted back to the coach beside him.
“Uncle Yiin, with the great enemy still lurking nearby, isn’t it a bit improper for us to light a fire and stop here?”
Having stayed in the coach for seven days, although Zong Shou had not witnessed Yiin Yang Chuxue fight with others, the scars on both sides of the coach cabin were all recent.
More so, countless holes almost punctured through the iron walls.
In some spots, there were even stains of blood, a harrowing sight.
It was evident that before he arrived in this world, he must have faced extreme danger.
In the past two days, the two of them would occasionally depart to hunt, but each time they returned, they carried a strong scent of blood.
Not of mutant beasts, but of human lives.
Yiin Yang seemed taken aback by the question, but then nonchalantly continued to devour his meat, his voice chillingly indifferent, “Please, Princely Heir, be at ease.
Within six hundred miles, we have already cleared the area.
There are only hawks, following day and night.
Whether we light a fire or not, it doesn’t matter.
Chuxue and I also need time to recuperate and make adjustments—”
Looking up, Zong Shou indeed saw several small black dots shuttling through the clouds.
His heart sank again, realizing with these ‘eyes’ in the sky, the enemy could completely monitor their movements.
Moreover, with the conspicuousness of this coach, it was virtually impossible to conceal their tracks.
It appeared that a formidable enemy was indeed close at hand, and the situation was as precarious as a pile of eggs.
However, what concerned him even more at that moment was Yiin Yang’s form of address.
Chuxue called him Young Master, but Yiin Yang referred to him as Princely Heir.
Princely Heir, within the demon clan, must surely be the heir to the Demon King!
With hundreds of unruly branches of the demon clan, being the successor to the Demon King yet lacking fighting capability, one could only imagine what fate awaited.
Zong Shou sighed and continued eating the Wild Boar Meat.
When he was about ninety percent full, he felt warm currents moving throughout his body.
Zong Shou stood up and moved to a more open space.
He began to stretch his body, bending at the waist, stooping, and then extending his limbs, somewhat similar to modern fitness exercises.
Chuxue had finished the leg she was eating and tore off half of the other well-roasted one.
She munched on it while curiously watching him.
“Practicing those movements again, they look so strange and can’t be used to fight.
Young Master, is this what you learned from Coastal Academy?
Those Spirit Masters, they only deceive people, with all their talk of ‘impartial teaching and inclusiveness of all four seas’—”
Zong Shou ignored her, his expression focused, striving to perform each movement perfectly.
The Basic Cultivation Method wasn’t from ancient legacies but was uniquely created by players in the game “Divine Emperor.” Its purpose was to guide the energy absorbed from the outside world into the body, turning it into one’s own.
Simultaneously practicing it with the Inner Breath Heart Method was highly beneficial, especially for practicing Basic Cultivation Techniques, which could improve efficiency by at least thirty percent.
Zong Shou was one of the contributors and initiators.
Before coming to this world, he had been working on the seventh set of movements, but before it was complete, the “Cosmic Extreme Destiny Book” emerged, triggering the battle of the Seven Emperors in Cloud Realm.
After that, he inexplicably arrived in this world.
Each time Zong Shou completed a movement, a stream of qi was forcibly guided by him into the Qi Sea in his lower abdomen.
