All sorts of strange phenomena occurred with shocking powers. However, the expert did not appear.
Then who could have caused such a storm?
Everyone was terrified and stunned speechless.
If it wasn’t a peak expert, could it just be a natural disaster?
What was going on? Such a phenomenon was not the work of the willow tree guardian spirit. Initially, the villagers of Stone Village thought the Outsiders were behind this. But if they were kneeling, it couldn’t have been them.
“Unless the Outsiders are using a funny and strange method to activate their skills?” Some of the people in Stone Village started to speculate.
Rubbish! The Outsiders couldn’t have done it!
Shi Hao was barely able to support his body but he didn’t let himself kneel. He frowned as a thought appeared in his mind.
This gave him a sense of déjà vu…
But he didn’t know where he had encountered this before.
While he was still thinking, a shout interrupted his thoughts.
“Let us go. We are willing to do anything. We promise not to take even half a step into Stone Village. We beseech you to let your ancestor forgive us for what we have done!”
The bishop’s dozen or so people continued to plead, their faces filled with fear and sincerity.
“What? What ancestors?” The people of Stone Village were slightly confused. They could not quite understand the bishop’s actions or words.
Ancestor? Did they have such an ancestor who survived death? The oldest person in the village they knew was the village chief.
As such, they started to stare at him.
Everyone was waiting for the village chief to speak. Even Shi Hao was no exception. His eyes were wide open as he stared straight at the village chief.
The corners of the village chief’s mouth twitched slightly as he looked back helplessly. ‘F*ck, why are you looking at me again?!’
The village chief then experienced his own sense of déjà vu.
This kind of thing seemed to have happened to him some time ago.
The sword Qi that had suddenly appeared last time had caused his people to look at him in the same way. But today’s actions were not the work of the Willow Deity. So what could possibly explain all of these?
According to what the Outsiders had said, they seemed to think that today’s phenomenon was the work of their village’s unfathomable ancestor.
The village chief’s face suddenly wore a smile and he spoke in a mysterious manner.
“If he gets angry, there’s nothing we can do. However… if you apologize a little more sincerely, perhaps he will forgive you. Otherwise…”
The village chief’s words came to an abrupt end as he stared at the sky filled with lightning and did not say anything else.
When the villagers of Stone Village heard this, they looked at each other but did not say anything. One by one, they also stared at the sky with a mysterious look on their faces.
As soon as the village chief had finished speaking, the lightning suddenly struck the ground, as if it agreed with him. The bishop started to tremble in fear.
However, it did not end there. It seemed that the Outsiders’ words and actions had caused the ‘person’ to fly into a rage, causing the strange phenomenon to become more and more intense.
The wild wind howled and made it hard for anyone to open their eyes. Fear started to envelop them.
The terrifying Qi flow surged and spread with no signs of stopping. The high and sharp pressure continued to attack as everyone’s faces started to go numb from the pain. Their blood vessels started to bulge as if all the air in the continent had been sucked out.
The spiritual Qi gathered into a tornado that enveloped Stone Village before spreading over hundreds of kilometers. It howled crazily and destroyed the vegetation and desolate beasts caught up in it.
The Outsiders froze in shock by the sheer power of the storm. They started to feel as if they were nothing.
The fierce wind turned the hundreds of kilometers around Stone Village into an empty wasteland but the village itself remained unscathed.
Everyone stared into the distance. It was empty. The ground was filled with the ashes of the vegetation and desolate beasts. The mountain peak had been flattened and countless rocks had fallen, stirring up dust into the air.
Suddenly, the torrential rain fell like rocks. Even the villagers of Stone Village were affected, not to mention the bishop and the others. All of them cried out in surprise.
The raindrops arrived with a decisive murderous aura. The drops were as sharp as a blade as they cut through the skin when they fell.
Even though the marks were very shallow, the pain was intense. It was as if someone held a knife and slashed them with it.
As the raindrops fell, the vegetation started to regrow, but so crazily fast that the others started to feel terrified.
In just a short while, many of the plants had surpassed the height of a human and were expanding towards the sky.
The people standing at the entrance of the village were enveloped by the crazily growing vegetation, and their eyes were filled with green.
The vegetation grew as quickly and suddenly as they were destroyed.
The wild wind whistled, bringing with it a piercing sound like the wails of ghosts and howls of wolves.
The sound gave everyone goosebumps.
The people of Stone Village could not bear it any longer and sat cross-legged on the ground.
They no longer had the strength to stand under the terrifying pressure.
Everything that had happened today had refreshed their worldview. They could not help but feel uneasy and afraid, wondering if the unexpected accident would affect Stone Village.
“Village Chief, could it be that all of this was because we pretended to speak for the expert and he found out about it, causing him to fly into a rage?” Huang Feijiao whispered the question into the village chief’s ear.
He only asked because things only started to become more intense after they had acted so.
The bishop and the others were already scared out of their wits by the situation so it couldn’t have been them.
“Bishop, can we leave safely?”
However, the bishop was looking rather helpless and sorrowful. He did not know the reason the strong expert was angry. Could it be that there was something wrong with the words he had said?
Or perhaps the idea of plundering Stone Village made the strong expert so furious that he felt that it was an unforgivable crime? But they hadn’t even done anything yet, perhaps except for potentially offending the people of Stone Village.
The bishop and the others were still trembling in fear. They did not have the confidence they initially had when they first came over. They still knelt on the ground in a sorry state, not even daring to breathe loudly.
If he could start over, he would definitely never approach Stone Village. No, he wouldn’t even enter the forbidden area and step foot in the teleportation array formation.
Stone Village was such a strange and fearful place.
The bishop and the others stared back at the sky and saw the dark and heavy clouds with interweaving lightning and thunder.
The bishop himself was already on the verge of collapse. How could he still have the mentality to recover?
The villagers of Stone Village were also panicking but they did their best to remain calm. They were known for having a mysterious person who could wield sword Qi on their side. Even if they were afraid, they had to keep up the act.
Moreover, the terror from the storm aside, how could they not feel excited and satisfied by seeing the initially arrogant and domineering group of Outsiders now kneeling before them?
But still, even they couldn’t help but wonder, why did the storm center around them?
