The women and children left behind in the village burst into tears upon seeing this scene, overwhelmed with worry, fear, and helplessness.
"What happened?! Who did this?!"
Shi Hao rushed forward and saw the uncles and elders who used to smile at him and grill meat for him in this miserable state. An uncontrollable anger surged from the bottom of his heart to the top of his head!
His once clear eyes were now flashing with a chilling killing intent!
His voice wasn't loud, but it carried an air of authority and chilling coldness completely out of character for his age, silencing all the surrounding cries and screams.
The hunting team leader, Shi Linhu, also had one arm hanging limply at his side, and a deep, bone-revealing wound on his face. When he saw Shi Hao, a flash of shame and immense anger crossed his eyes, and he gritted his teeth as he said:
"It was...it was those beasts from the Wolf Village who did it!"
"The Wolf Village?!"
Shi Hao frowned. He had heard Shi Yunfeng's grandfather mention this name before. It was a village nearby known for its cunning and cruelty, and it had a long history of conflict with Shi Village.
"We were lucky today! We found a... a dead adult Suanni deep in the wilderness!" Shi Linhu's voice was filled with excitement and regret. "That's an ancient remnant! Although it's dead, its flesh, fur, and especially that precious bone are priceless! We originally wanted to carefully bring it back..."
"Just when we were about to succeed, the people from the Wolf Village suddenly rushed out! They had been lying in ambush nearby! They launched a sneak attack on us!"
Another man with a broken leg chimed in, his voice filled with resentment and anger, “They outnumbered us and had the help of their village’s sacred spirit, the Old Wolf. We…we were no match for them! The brothers fought desperately and barely managed to escape…but the corpse of that Suanni…they stole it!”
The old Suanni's corpse was stolen?! And so many of its relatives were injured?!
boom!
Shi Hao felt an indescribable surge of rage erupting in his chest like a volcano!
Wolf Village! Old Wolf!
He transmigrated here and felt the warmth of home for the first time, and had family he wanted to protect for the first time. But these kind and simple family members were so bullied and severely injured by outsiders! Even the great opportunity that should have belonged to Stone Village—the corpse of the old Suanni—was taken away!
Unforgivable! Absolutely unforgivable!
"Goddess Liu! Please! Please save them!"
"Goddess Liu, have mercy! Lin Hu is dying!"
Just then, the villagers, regaining their senses, knelt down under the willow tree at the village entrance, pleading with the Willow God, their cries filled with tears. Now, only the Willow God could save these mortally wounded men!
As if sensing the villagers' desperate prayers, the willow branches once again emitted a soft and sacred green light.
This time, the green light was more intense than ever before! Countless points of light, like fireflies, drifted down from the willow branches and merged into the bodies of the severely wounded hunting team members.
Visibly, the deep wounds that exposed bone began to heal rapidly, and the broken bones made a crackling sound as they reconnected themselves.
Their faces, which had been deathly pale, quickly regained their color! The dying men's breathing also stabilized and recovered at an astonishing speed!
Incredible skill! A miracle!
"Thank you God Liu!"
"We will never forget the great kindness and virtue of the Goddess Liu!"
Upon seeing this, the villagers once again excitedly kowtowed to the Willow God.
The Willow God's will did not communicate with the villagers, but a gentle thought once again entered Shi Hao's mind: "Little guy, do you want... to take revenge?"
Shi Hao raised his head and looked at the willow branch that radiated a sacred light. His small face showed no hesitation, only cold resolve:
"Yes! Master!"
"They...hurt my family! They stole our things! This grudge...will be avenged!"
He didn't spout any grand principles or talk about the village; he simply used the two most direct and straightforward words—"family"!
The willow tree's branches swayed gently, seemingly without objection.
"Go ahead. Be careful of that old wolf; it's quite powerful." Liu Shen only gave a brief reminder before falling silent again.
Of course, this so-called "cultivation" refers to ordinary people.
Upon hearing this, Shi Hao's killing intent surged even more intensely.
He turned to the hunting team men who had just been healed by the Willow God, still somewhat weak but no longer in mortal danger, and whose eyes were also filled with anger, and said in a solemn and resolute tone:
"Uncle Lin Hu, fellow uncles! We're setting off early tomorrow morning for Bei Village!"
"Take back everything that belongs to us, with interest!"
"Good!" Upon hearing this, Shi Linhu and the others were instantly filled with excitement and roared in unison.
With Shi Hao, a powerful expert at the Cave Heaven Realm, and Liu Shen's support, what do they have to fear from Bei Village?!
……
The next day, early morning.
The atmosphere in Shicun was both somber and intense.
Shi Hao stood at the very front of the group, his small frame ramrod straight. Behind him were Shi Linhu and more than ten other elite hunting party members, who had rested overnight and were full of fighting spirit.
Beside them, the evolved Azure Roc stood tall with its head held high, its eyes sharp and radiating a powerful aura. It was clear that it had obeyed Shi Hao's orders and was preparing to go on the expedition together!
"set off!"
At Shi Hao's command, the Azure Roc let out a high-pitched cry and took off into the air.
Shi Hao flashed and landed directly on the roc's back.
Shi Linhu and his men followed closely behind, marching at top speed toward Bei Village.
Their goal was singular—to raze the Wolf Village to the ground and pay for their blood debt!
Wolf Village is about a hundred miles away from Stone Village, nestled in a darker and damp valley.
The architectural style of the entire village exudes an air of ruthlessness and cunning.
At this moment, the Wolf Village was immersed in a state of triumph and celebration. They had not only severely damaged the Stone Village hunting team, but also seized the priceless adult Suanni corpse, which would greatly enhance their village's strength for the next few years!
However, they were unaware that utter annihilation was already upon them.
"唳——!!!"
A majestic and murderous roar, like a thunderclap, resounded over the village of Bei!
A huge shadow fell as the Azure Roc hovered like a dark cloud above the Wolf Village! Shi Hao stood on the Roc's back, his eyes coldly looking down at the panicked villagers below.
"what?!"
"It's a Azure-Scaled Eagle?! No! Its aura is even stronger!"
"Oh no! The people from Shicun have attacked!"
The people of Bei Village reacted instantly, grabbing their weapons and calling out to their sacrificial spirits in terror.
"Ouch——!!!"
A hoarse and cunning wolf howl rang out.
From an altar made of animal bones in the center of Wolf Village, a strangely large old wolf with gray-white fur, a sinister look in its eyes, and the aura of an early stage of the Cave Heaven Realm suddenly sprang out! It was the sacrificial spirit of Wolf Village—Old Wolf!
"You little brats from Stone Village! How dare you come here to die?!" The old wolf spoke in a hoarse, unpleasant voice, "Perfect! Kill you all, then wipe out Stone Village! That Suanni is the cornerstone of our wolf village's rise!"
"Old man! You talk too much nonsense!"
Shi Hao snorted coldly and jumped off Peng's back!
"boom--!!!"
Six grotto-heavens manifested simultaneously! Like six divine suns hanging in the sky! A terrifying aura instantly enveloped the entire Wolf Village!
"Six...six cave heavens?!" When the old wolf saw the strange phenomenon behind Shi Hao, its sinister wolf eyes instantly filled with unbelievable fear!
A five-year-old at the Cave Heaven Realm?! And he's even opened up six Cave Heavens?! What the hell kind of monster is this?!
"Now you're scared? Too late!"
Shi Hao's face was icy cold, giving the old wolf no chance to react! He directly activated the "Suanni Treasure Technique," which he had only recently comprehended!
"Roar!"
With a roar that seemed to come from the ancient times, a layer of dazzling golden lightning runes instantly covered Shi Hao's right fist! The terrifying lightning power crackled and electrified the air!
"Suanni Fist Imprint!"
Shi Hao let out a low shout, and his small fist, carrying destructive lightning power, slammed fiercely towards the old wolf!
"Do not--!!!"
The old wolf sensed a deadly crisis and let out a desperate howl, trying to escape, only to find that the space around it seemed to be locked by that terrifying will of thunder!
It could only desperately urge its own power to condense a pale white bone shield in front of it!
Click! ! !
The moment the bone shield came into contact with the Suanni's fist imprint, it was as fragile as paper and was directly blasted into pieces by the violent lightning power!
puff!
The golden thunderous fist imprint landed on the old wolf's chest without any resistance!
"Ow..."
The old wolf's screams came to an abrupt halt. Its body, like rotten wood struck by lightning, instantly turned charred and cracked, before exploding into a cloud of blood mist and shattered bones with a deafening roar!
One punch! Just one punch! The old wolf, the sacrificial spirit upon which the wolf village depended for survival, was annihilated, body and soul!
"The...the Priestess...is dead?!"
"No! Impossible!"
Everyone in the Wolf Village who witnessed this scene was frozen in place, their faces filled with fear and despair!
"kill!!!"
Shi Linhu and his men had already arrived. Seeing the sacrificial spirit instantly killed by Shi Hao, their morale reached its peak! They roared as they charged into the wolf village, beginning their revenge for their fallen kin!
Having lost their sacrificial spirit and terrified by Shi Hao's divine might, the Wolf Village's resistance seemed so pale and powerless.
Soon, the entire wolf village was completely wiped out!
Shi Hao did not participate in the subsequent battle; instead, he was responsible for covering for Shi Linhu and the others.
Then, he went straight to the place where the spoils of war were stored in the Wolf Village and found the enormous, adult Suanni corpse that exuded a terrifying aura!
"We've got our things back!"
