"Big Brother, what did that female ferocious beast give you? It smells so sweet!"
All Shi Hao ever thought about was eating delicious food.
He actually had his eye on this pendant, too?
To keep the brat from coveting it,
Shi Xiu put it away immediately.
"Let's head in now! We don't want to miss our chance!"
Entering the instance to cultivate was what really mattered.
Besides, after the earlier mass advance,
the passage ahead had already begun shrinking. They had to hurry!
But the little brat still refused to let it go.
"Big Brother, why does that female ferocious beast treat you so differently? Why didn't she give me one?"
Wonderful.
Shi Hao really did seem oblivious at this age.
There was no explaining the affairs of men and women to this brat!
Still, Shi Hao's future fate had already changed considerably.
The Supreme Bone had fused back into his body.
His former confidence had returned as well.
And that brat Shi Yi had sensibly stayed away from the Heaven Mending Pavilion.
Everything seemed utterly perfect.
But just as the brothers were about to enter the portal,
a fiery-red blur suddenly brushed past them.
It was Huo Ling'er's carriage.
The Princess of the Fire Kingdom leaned against the carriage window, looking over with a haughty gaze.
"I'd like to know what that thing is, too. Hmph!"
Apparently, Huo Ling'er had witnessed that scene herself.
That was why she had waited so long to show herself!
After a cold snort,
her carriage suddenly accelerated.
Several guards dressed in red accompanied it.
They were probably all experts forcibly suppressing their cultivation.
Together, they formed a fiery-red blur, their imposing presence filling the sky.
They forced back everyone entering alongside them.
At tremendous speed, they charged ahead of the brothers.
"Big Brother, isn't that Sister-in-law? Why does she look so angry?"
Wonderful.
Sometimes, Shi Hao really was enviable!
Little One was truly an optimist!
His life had already been full of suffering, yet he could still maintain such a cheerful disposition.
Still, when he thought of the journey through the Hundred Broken Mountains ahead,
Shi Xiu's heart filled with anticipation.
As for Huo Ling'er,
her royal father had arranged this marriage in the first place. There was nothing to regret about it.
Besides, with such an outstanding constitution as the Heavenly Dao Treasure Body,
if one place would not welcome him, another surely would.
Of course, that was all just talk.
In truth, a certain transmigrator's romantic notions were at work.
Looking at transmigrators throughout the ages, which of them had not ruled the world and gathered countless beauties who understood them?
Take that fellow surnamed Xiao, for instance. Beauties of the human race were not enough for him; he would not even spare a snake.
Then there was one surnamed Tang, who transmigrated into the mightiest world of soul beasts and had countless confidantes.
In the end, he even found himself a rabbit.
Compared with predecessors like those, a certain someone was practically living on vegetables!
Besides, compared with the Ruthless Great Emperor and Yun Xi from earlier,
Huo Ling'er fell a little short in both figure and looks.
Men all liked prettier curves and softer voices, didn't they?
And there was the Willow Deity's true form, which he had seen once before.
Now that was a true goddess.
Not to mention all the Saintesses of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths he would encounter in the future.
He could hardly give up a wonderful future just because of one little tantrum from Huo Ling'er!
Moreover, as a transmigrator, Shi Xiu knew Huo Ling'er's fate very well.
Back when this young woman was about to finally marry Shi Hao,
that Great Emperor An Ran had seized Sin Province with one hand and taken it to the Upper Realm.
He had also corrupted Huo Ling'er's body and imprisoned her soul for more than two million years.
Who could possibly understand all the suffering involved?
Although Huo Ling'er's fate had now changed completely with a certain someone's arrival,
could anyone guarantee that Great Emperor An Lan would not make trouble for her in the future?
So, up to this point, although plenty of romantic prospects had appeared around Shi Xiu,
he had never truly announced that he was formally becoming Dao companions with anyone.
Why?
Because he himself was not strong enough!
Later, he might encounter unimaginably powerful giants of the Immortal Realm.
He might even follow the path the Desolate Heaven Emperor had once taken.
He would wage war against the Foreign Races.
He had to prepare for all of that in advance.
If he resigned himself to his lot now,
he could simply find a major power.
Wouldn't it be better to obediently lie back and live off a woman?
But then, wouldn't this entire Heaven and Earth Fortune Seizing System,
along with his one-of-a-kind Heavenly Dao Treasure Body, go to waste?
With his mind full of thoughts,
he passed straight through the portal ahead with his brother.
A dazzling burst of light flashed past.
The scene before them suddenly changed dramatically.
They went from the bustling little town to a place of beautiful scenery.
The Hundred Broken Mountains were a small world.
Spiritual energy filled every corner.
Not only were there countless opportunities here,
but many dangers lurked as well.
This teleportation did not send everyone to fixed destinations.
Instead, it randomly scattered the human race among the descendants of those ancient ferocious beasts.
For instance, although Shi Xiu and Shi Hao had teleported together,
a large crowd of bizarre-looking creatures immediately surrounded them.
Every one of them eyed the two humans like a tiger watching its prey!
"Hahaha! Just two puny humans! You have no right to compete with us for resources!"
"Why waste words on them? Tear these two humans to pieces! That's one less share to divide!"
Some of these creatures looked like qilin, but had tiger tails.
They were probably some hybrid breed of primordial ferocious beast.
Opposite them stood one that resembled a giant treant, though its skin seemed covered in scales.
These were all ferocious beasts of unknown kinds.
They might have had a tiny trace of ancient ferocious beast blood in their bodies, which was why they acted so arrogantly!
But Shi Hao paid them no mind.
He even set down the pot he had just bought.
"Come straight into my bowl! Hurry up, Big Brother. I'll heat the oil first!"
The brothers had quite a clear division of labor.
Shi Xiu would deal with these ferocious beasts.
Meanwhile, Shi Hao had already started adding chopped scallions.
At the sight before them,
the enormous ferocious beasts flew into a rage.
But then their vision blurred!
The treant took a vicious punch to the belly.
Naturally, Shi Xiu was the one who had struck.
He had not even used any treasure technique.
He simply used his Indestructible Golden Body and punched the creature's hardest spot.
The blow instantly sent it flying dozens of meters before it slammed hard into a huge boulder!
Clearly, a monster of this level was no match at all for Shi Xiu.
It was nothing but a dish delivering itself to his door!
Meanwhile, the qilin-like monster realized things were going badly and tried to flee.
But unexpectedly, a flash of golden light appeared before its eyes as well!
Then a heavy kick landed squarely on its forehead.
Before it could even make out its enemy's figure, its neck twisted sideways.
The entire attack took less than three seconds.
Clean and beautiful, it brought down a primordial divine beast outright.
But Shi Hao was not particularly satisfied with either of these ferocious beasts.
"This treant is too dry. It definitely won't taste good!"
"This big tiger's scales stink. I don't really like it. Let's find some other prey!"
Shi Xiu's cooking skills certainly could not compare with those of the little brat before him.
He immediately nodded.
"Okay!"
It was only a single word.
Yet the ferocious beasts within several hundred meters instantly felt immense pressure.
Especially after seeing the two humans swiftly dispose of those two descendants of primordial ferocious beasts.
How could they dare linger here?
One after another, they took to their heels.
They feared that if they were even a step too slow, they would become food on these two fellows' plates!
Weren't these two humans far too ferocious?
