Chapter 433: Chapter 339: Return to Freedom Village (First Update)
Su Yu, Zhang Zhongmou, Qin Jiagui, Ma Ziye, Murong Dingyuan and their wolf dog Retriever, returned the same way they came. This round trip consumed a day of their time, and by the next day, the now magnificent "Freedom Village" once again appeared in everyone’s sight from afar.
Ada had regained a bit of her spirit and was lying on Su Yu’s shoulder, her eyes slightly squinted.
Seeing "Freedom Village" from afar brought up indescribable feelings in everyone. Likewise, the anger within Qin Jiagui, Zhang Zhongmou and the others escalated. The thoughts of Meng Ting’s attitude towards them, and the sight of that Fu Lingyin aggravated their fury even more.
Everyone had risked their lives for "Freedom Village" in the past, but this was the treatment they received upon return. Even a man of straw would show a spark of anger, let alone them who were far from it.
Zhang Zhongmou, being rather impatient, gave a scoff, directly taking out the Red Lotus Sword from the Red Lotus Bracelet on his left wrist, holding it in his hand, his face full of murderous intent.
Zhao Shichang asked, "Folks, are we just going to rush in like this? Or should we sneak in quietly and decide our strategy based on the situation?"
Zhang Zhongmou sneered, "Nonsense, now that Su Yu has recovered, what do we have to fear? Of course we charge in with righteousness, damn it, we should go straight into the village, confront Meng Ting, and tell that idiot Chen to get the hell out. Damn, Meng Ting is no better, I used to call her Sister Ting, thinking she was honorable, but damn, she turns out to be such a person. I was so blind."
That day, Zhang Zhongmou was deeply moved by Meng Ting’s two life-risking decisions. He was even respectfully referring to her as Sister Ting. However, now he finally realized that Meng Ting was nothing like he had imagined. His disappointment and anger towards Meng Ting felt agonizingly intolerable inside him.
Among them, the one who probably felt the most uncomfortable was Su Yu himself. After all, he was the one who was aging and needed the Day Coins. He couldn’t help but stretch out his hand, and still quietly placed in his palm were three Day Coins.
At that time, Meng Ting, Shang Qi and Meng Jun gave Su Yu four Day Coins in total. Qin Jiagui took them, and half way through, they were stopped by Zhou Zexun. In the urgent situation, Su Yu absorbed one Day Coin’s life power, frightening the others away. The remaining three, he always kept with him and never used.
Su Yu had quite strong feelings for Meng Ting and "Freedom Village". He remembered the situation when he first met Meng Ting, remember how she took the blame for him and Kou Xiaowei, risked great danger to protect Kou Xiaowei, and challenged Lei Yu and others from "Peach Blossom Town".
He kept all these kindnesses deeply in his heart. For a long time, Su Yu regarded Meng Ting, Zhou Birong, and Kou Xiaowei as companions worthy of his protection.
He had even thought that as he became stronger step by step, he would fully assist Meng Ting to make Freedom Village truly become a city of freedom, to help Meng Ting to realize her dream. He had never thought about being a leader, he was content to assist her behind the scenes.
But when he came back this time, Meng Ting’s attitude really shocked him. He suddenly realized that all the goodness and everything Meng Ting had done for him were because he was of use to her. With someone else that was more valuable here now, he was given this treatment, which was quite reasonable.
"I regarded her as a companion, but she... did not regard me as a real friend..." Su Yu muttered with a bitter smile, looking at the Day Coin in his hand.
"So my worth... is only four ’Day Coins’..." Su Yu laughed at himself, involuntarily clutching the "Day Coin" in his hand. Then he walked towards "Freedom Village" first.
Finally, he regained his strength and even became stronger. Now Su Yu can be considered a genuine Sixth Order Peak warrior. Furthermore, considering his Golden Blood and the power of that mysterious "Dark Heart", his real strength had transcended the category of a "Sixth Order Warrior".
But what if his strength increased even more? Even if Meng Ting abandoned Chen Xuanbai for his increased strength, what then? Some things, once changed, can never be turned back. Some frictions, once formed, can never be mended.
Su Yu looked at the "Freedom Village" in front of him in a daze. The place that he had once felt like home was now foreign. What was the point of coming back?
Zhang Zhongmou and the others looked at Su Yu as he walked out ahead alone, slightly taken aback, they hurried to catch up with him. Qin Jiagui asked, "Su Yu, what are you planning?"
Su Yu paused for a moment and looked back at him.
Qin Jiagui pondered for a moment before saying, "Our return inevitably means a clash with Meng Ting and Chen Xuanbai. What I mean is... are we, everyone, here to collect what belongs to us and our people, and then leave to establish our own thing? Or more straightforwardly, take down ’Freedom Village’, directly drive out those who resist us, or even... kill them... Since they can treat us like that, why should we be polite to them?"
Zhang Zhongmou’s words made Qin Jiagui’s eyes light up. He couldn’t help making a couple of empty swings with his ’Red Lotus Sword’, saying, "Yes, damn it, why didn’t I think of that? We should just drive out Meng Ting, Chen Bailian, and all those annoying guys. Damn it, let them taste what it feels like to be abandoned. Why should we leave ’Freedom Village’ to them? Hell, if they are heartless, we don’t have to be fair."
Su Yu looked at Zhang Zhongmou and shook his head, then reach out and hold onto his ’Red Lotus Sword’ and said, "Put it away."
Zhang Zhongmou wasn’t pleased and responded, "We’ve come back to challenge them. Holding a sword in hand makes us look more intimidating..." Just as he was about to continue, he noticed the expression on Su Yu’s face and dared not to say any more. He reluctantly sheathed his ’Red Lotus Sword’.
Su Yu looked at everyone else, as if pondering something, then shook his head and said, "Let’s go." He then walked ahead, with Dido wagging her tail and following at Su Yu’s side. To be precise, she would rather follow Ada, who kept staying on Su Yu’s shoulder, that forced her to follow this man. It seemed like she was Su Yu’s loyal dog.
’Freedom Village’ was still the same as before, and the village entrance was still guarded by four brawny men wielded iron weapons, with haughty expressions.
Just as ’Wangdi Village’ used to dominate the region, the people in ’Freedom Village’ had become arrogant after becoming the most powerful group in the vicinity. Even the men guarding the entrance believed themselves superior.
Ada was lying on Su Yu’s shoulder, squinting at the self-important ’Freedom Village’. She found the disputes and power struggles in such a small village to be ridiculous compared to her status as a noble Category 5 lifeform.
This felt just like a human watching a group of tiny ants trying all sorts of methods to compete for a mound of dirt the size of a palm.
What an amusing and interesting feeling this was.
The four men guarding the village weren’t the same ones from yesterday. When they saw a group of people coming towards them, especially the Category 5 lifeform lying on Su Yu’s shoulder and his white hair, it made quite the impression. They paid extra attention.
These four men were new and didn’t recognize Su Yu and the others. Regardless, seeing the Category 5 lifeform on Su Yu’s shoulder, they still regarded him as a village leader come to discuss something with the head of their ’Freedom Village’, thanks to their dominant status in the region.
They have encountered such situations a few times before, where village leaders would visit and show them great respect & deference.
Thinking of this, the four men re-adjusted their arrogant attitudes, puffed out their chests, and blocked Su Yu, who was leading the group.
"Which village are you from? Do you know where you are? This is ’Freedom Village’, a place where non-essential people can not enter randomly!"
One of the men sized up Su Yu, his face full of arrogance. He could guess that the white-haired youngster in front of him would soon reveal a respectful expression, humble himself, and explain which village he was from & ask them to go in to report.
At that time, he could extort some ’Time Coins’ or other gifts. If the other party was not sensible or stingy, they wouldn’t let them enter, and they wouldn’t go in and report it. Moreover, with the reputation of ’Freedom Village’ in the area, these guys wouldn’t dare to run amok. (To be continued, if you want to know what happens next, please visit www.qidian.com.
