Chapter 28: I Love You Too Much, System!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ye Yun felt helpless once more. He had never even considered how terrifying the strange phenomenon caused by his meditation was.

A moment later, Ye Yun watched as the bishop and his group stood up slowly. The village chief’s lips curled into a slight smile, he wasn’t planning to let them off so easily.

The Outsiders might not have caused the strange phenomenon earlier, but who knew what else they might be up to?

Unfortunately, no one knew of the pain in the hearts of the bishop and the others. How could they have been so unlucky to trigger the ancient teleportation array formation and arrive at a land where the villagers’ abilities were so terrifying?

Since things had come to this, they had to solve this matter to appease the strong warriors of Stone Village, then design a plan to return to Wolf Village and find a way to get those people to come here.

However, they had no idea how to get to Wolf Village.

Perhaps it would be better to just return to Martial Soul Continent. After today’s experience, he felt that he needed to redefine what he deemed as strong warriors.

If they were to stay in the desolate mountain forests, they would have to hide in there for the rest of their lives. But he was not sure if this place was suitable for the people of Martial Soul Continent.

The bishop felt that his mind was in a mess. In the end, he smiled and talked to the villagers of Stone Village.

The scene became boring, containing perhaps some mention of leaving, forgiveness, and next steps.

Ye Yun could not be bothered. Stone Village would know how to deal with them so he decided to return his attention to the system’s flood of notifications.

The virtual screen was filled with check-in information. His roots must have grown too quickly and reached many new check-in locations while he was meditating.

He checked his own roots and noticed that they had grown to cover every corner of Stone Village. They were also more intertwined with the roots of the willow tree. If Ye Yun moved his roots slightly, the roots of the willow tree would also be affected.

This was actually good as it would be more convenient for him to help keep the willow tree’s roots tidy. He just wasn’t sure when the Willow Deity would wake up. If it found out that its main body had been intertwined with the roots of some grass, what kind of reaction would it have?

Perhaps it would not be a big deal. After all, the Willow Deity was unparalleled in the world. Why would it care about something like this?

The system suddenly sent out another notification to inform Ye Yun to check in, interrupting his thoughts.

[Beep beep, detected that the host has not completed many check-ins. Would you like to check in to all of them?]

“Yes, check in.”

[Checked in successfully. Location: 30 feet, 60 feet, 90 feet west of the willow tree. Obtained Earth Essence Energy x3.]

[Checked in successfully. Location: 30 feet, 60 feet north of the willow tree. Influence +3.]

[Checked in successfully. Location: 60 feet east of the willow tree. Obtained Spring Water of Life x1. Note: This spring water can revive people on the spot and increase their vitality.]

[Checked in successfully. The host will use Earth Essence Energy by default. Use completed. Congratulations to the host for completing the Meridian Transformation phase and entering the Vitality Consolidation phase.]

The system notifications echoed in his mind one after another. After a while, it was finally clear. But Ye Yun did not feel any ripples in his heart at that moment and found it quite laughable.

The system notification had racked up so many check-in notifications but that was it?

He had only broken through from the Meridian Transformation phase to the Vitality Consolidation phase?

The system was extremely stingy. He had checked in continuously and only received Earth Essence Energy.

Ye Yun sighed silently as he browsed through the information on the virtual screen,

“What is this? How long will it take for me to get past Growth and into the Mature stage?” Ye Yun couldn’t help but grumble when he saw his attributes.

After all, he could not communicate with the others,

“Based on my current status, am I just a teenager in terms of human years?” Ye Yun could not imagine how long it would take him to become an ‘adult’ then.

“It’s just you then, who gets to be in cool in a flowing white robe with hair fluttering in the wind. How transcendent you are.” Ye Yun could not help but recall the depiction of the Willow Deity in the novel.

“Let’s think about other things. Strange… why are these people still in Stone Village?” Ye Yun kept watching the bishop and his group.

He hadn’t paid much attention to them when they were kneeling. But now that they were standing, they caught his eye.

“F*ck… Are those marks… Six marks?!” Ye Yun was dumbstruck.

When he had heard them mention Martial Soul Hall, Ye Yun was just confused and didn’t think about it too much.

He knew that he had transmigrated to a place where the laws of the world were mixed. However, he had been a resident of the Great Wastelands for the past few months. As time passed, he had forgotten about the whole multiverse concept.

Now that he had noticed the totem marks on their clothes, he recalled the situation of the world he was in.

His interest had been piqued. But how did the people of Martial Soul Hall come to the Great Wastelands? How many small worlds or continents existed in this world? What were the chances that one continent would encounter another?

Now that the people of Martial Soul Hall were here, the existence of other sub-worlds was most likely just around the corner.

Ye Yun’s interest increased, but he also felt sad for the people of Martial Soul Hall.

Did they think they could easily enter any continent? And they just had to arrive at Perfect Continent without knowing how to keep a low profile, brazenly entering Stone Village in broad daylight only to be intimidated.

Ye Yun started to attribute it all to Shi Hao’s extraordinary ability – he had suppressed the people of Martial Soul Hall with his martial force. No matter what, Shi Hao’s ability was the most important in Stone Village, even if he was only four years old.

No matter how much and what he speculated, Ye Yun had never considered himself or the Willow Deity to be behind any of the strange or miraculous phenomena.

In the end, it was all a matter of perspective. Those within suspected those without. And those without suspected those within. If the residents of Stone Village knew what Ye Yun had been thinking, they would have laughed, and vice versa.

To the bishop, Ye Yun was the ancestor of Stone Village.

To the people of Stone Village, Ye Yun was an unknown strong warrior responsible for the strange phenomenon and was owed their gratitude.

The bishop and the others had been begging for the ancestor’s forgiveness before they dared to leave. But they had not heard a reply and thus, did not dare to.

The village chief had figured out the culprits behind all these accusations. The people of Wolf Village had suffered major losses – they had lost not only their men and guardian spirit but had also returned empty-handed. Thus, they had become jealous of and started to hate Stone Village, leading them to encourage the Outsiders to make the first move.

Even if his people were unharmed and they had not suffered any losses from the Outsiders, the village chief could not allow them to leave so easily.

He had not forgotten the arrogance in the faces of the Outsiders when they first arrived at his doorstep.

The village chief then started acting as if he was worshipping the willow tree, pretending that the Willow Deity had replied to him. “Can the ancestor please reply to us juniors that this group of people is allowed to leave the village?”

When the Outsiders saw and heard this, their hearts stirred as they waited for a response nervously.

A gentle breeze blew past, but there was no reply..
