Chapter 673: Chapter 160 Passing on the Skills

After settling Gui He and the Bear King, Lu Hong left immediately.

He closed the door, and the Bear King moved closer to Gui He and asked, "Young Master, how did you get acquainted with the humans?"

"Is it important?" Instead of answering the Bear King’s question directly, Gui He was sidestepping, trying to gauge the Bear King’s attitude.

The Bear King was taken aback, then shook his head, "It is indeed not important. I just feel that this village is the most terrifying among all the human villages I’ve encountered. There are too many experts here, and they are all so young with massive potential for growth. If this village were allowed to develop, it would threaten our race’s standing!"

"Bear King, you really underestimate our race, don’t you? How many people can a village have to shake our entire race?" Gui He, feigning ignorance, attempted to delude the Bear King.

However, the Bear King, though not very smart, had been through a lot and could naturally think further.

"That’s not something you can say lightly." The Bear King looked grave, "I see that the youth of the Human Race generally of three types of embedded power, which shows that the people of this village have inherited a legacy that can be passed down indefinitely."

"It seems to be just a village now, but maybe in ten or twenty years, it will be the whole Human Race that receives such a legacy."

The more the Bear King thought about it, the more alarmed he became, "The Human Race has strong reproductive capabilities. Although they don’t have a large population now, with such a legacy to aid them and improved living conditions, their population would undergo explosive growth. And those newborns? In just over twenty years, they could grow into top-tier fighters. Isn’t that terrifying? Young Master, do you understand what I am saying?"

Gui He nodded, inwardly lamenting that although this old bear had a clear train of thought, he was somewhat slow-witted vocally.

"What do you suggest we do now?"

At that moment, Gui He was somewhat troubled. He didn’t understand why his master had insisted on bringing the Bear King back to the village, exposing the secrets of the Xiao Clan’s development. Wasn’t covert development better?

"We only have two options now," the Bear King said solemnly, "The first is to send this intelligence back to the royal capital for the gods to decide, and to initiate a genocidal war against the Human Race before they fully grow."

"And the second option?"

"As for the second," the Bear King clearly reluctant, "we must admit that the rise of the Human Race is inevitable. So, starting now, we must order our people to stop killing humans, and work on mending our relations with the Human Race. I’m not fond of this route, but it aligns with the decree once passed down by the Lionheart God.

The Bear King understood the principle of ’those who are not our kin are sure to have a different heart,’ but even the Lionheart God, the foremost Heavenly God of our race, belonged to the ’kin-first’ faction, so what right did the Bear King have to question such decisions?

"Let’s not rush this matter. We’ll decide after we return to the royal capital." Gui He clapped the Bear King on the shoulder, "You must be tired after that big battle just now, right?"

"Not really, I just need one night’s rest to recover completely."

"Then you rest, I need to step out for a bit."

Saying this, Gui He rose and left.

"Young Master..." Suddenly, the Bear King called out to Gui He.

"What is it?"

"Never... never mind." The Bear King seemed to have thought of something, his voice trembling slightly, and then turned his head to lie down, "I’m resting now. Have a safe trip."

Gui He left the courtyard and went to the riverbank where his master once taught him swordsmanship.

"You’re here?" Lu Hong was already waiting.

"Master, I don’t understand why you brought the Bear King back to the village." The first thing Gui He said expressed his confusion, and there was a hint of complaint in his tone.

"The Beastmen would have found out about the Xiao Clan sooner or later. What difference does it make a few days earlier or later?"

"But... but it shouldn’t be now, right? The Bear King has sensed the potential of the Xiao Clan. Once the Beastmen become aware, they will surely send a large army to suppress us. Although the Xiao Clan is strong, it can’t withstand thousands of powerful Beastmen."

"Relax." Lu Hong smiled slightly. "Gui He, your perspective is still too narrow. If the beast race really launched a genocidal war against the Human Race, do you think the other hundreds of clans would just sit by and watch?"

"No matter how strong or weak the Human Race is, at the very least, they can serve as cannon fodder, holding up the main orc army. Then, who wouldn’t want a slice of the pie from the beast race? Let’s put aside other races, take the Elves, for example. They would never miss such a great opportunity. As long as the Orcs send a large army to attack the Human Race, there will definitely be a great battle among the Elves. Although Tiger Roar’s death had your beast race’s internal push, it can’t be denied that the death of Tiger Roar God already marked the path from prosperity to decline for the beast race. I am certain, once the Bear King brings the intelligence he saw in the Xiao clan back, those high-ranking members of the beast race will only think about negotiations, not war."

Hearing Lu Hong’s explanation, Gui He finally felt relieved.

Of course, these speculations were not just pondered by Lu Hong alone, but also involved Lei Sai.

Lei Sai had long treated Lu Hong as his son-in-law, often visiting the Xiao clan for no particular reason, and had arrived at the Xiao clan yesterday, being shown around by Lei Jinjin.

This was also the reason Lu Hong dared to fight the Bear King boldly. Once he discovered that the opponent was cruel and ruthless, Lei Sai would join forces with him to slaughter him.

Seeing that Gui He was no longer fixated on the matter, Lu Hong continued, "I heard you got involved with a woman from the Lionheart royal family in the orc capital? Is that true?"

"I...," Gui He was stunned, not understanding why his master knew news from the heartlands of the orcs.

"Don’t be shy, I support you, the Lionheart royal family, just thinking about it is exciting." Lu Hong handed the sword in his hand to Gui He and continued, "Now that you have a family, I won’t keep you here. Later, study well with me, I’ll teach you the skills after Third Transition. Once you’ve learned them, go back to the capital and live a good life with your girlfriend. Next time I see you, you’d better bring your son along."

Hearing Lu Hong’s words, Gui He suddenly looked up, "Master, are you driving me away?"

Lu Hong shook his head, "I’m not driving you away, but I hope you cherish the people around you. I, your master regretted not cherishing the people around me when I had lost them, and I don’t want the same thing to happen to you, do you understand?"

"Ah? Did Mistress Beisha die?"

"Fuck!" Lu Hong slapped him hard on the face, "What are you cursing about!"

"Then... is it Miss Lei Jinjin?"

"Get lost!"

"So it’s not her?" Gui He, rubbing his head, continued, "Master, do I have other mistresses?"

"There are plenty, it’s just that they’re not in this world." Lu Hong sighed. Regarding the method to leave this world, Lu Hong had no clue. Could it really be that he had to live through this era to the next?

"Are they all dead?" Gui He clenched his fist and swore, "Master, tell me who killed my mistresses, I will avenge them!"

"Avenge my ass, stop talking nonsense and follow me to learn!"

Lu Hong interrupted Gui He’s wild thoughts and imparted multiple important skills of the Third Transition.

Especially Chaotic Uprising, the essence of the Third Transition Blood Berserker profession. It was extremely difficult to defend against if mastered well, killing enemies in an instant, and an essential skill for stealth operations. Next was the ultimate move of the Third Transition, Heaven Slaying.

After Lu Hong’s instruction, Gui He gradually memorized the methods to unleash these skills, but he still needed to wait until he truly advanced to Third Transition to practice them.

Seven days rushed by, and Gui He, along with the Bear King, bid farewell to Lu Hong, embarking on the journey back to the capital.

After sending off Gui He, Lu Hong took out the Divine Blood given to him, trying to absorb it to enhance his physique.

Half a month passed, and with the complete assimilation of the Divine Blood, Lu Hong’s physique had exceeded human limits. Now, even without relying on his vitality, he could block the attacks of early Third Transition stage experts with his physical body alone. It had to be said, that old turtle from the turtle clan had lived long enough and had a powerful foundation; ordinary Divine Blood could not achieve this effect.

At that moment, Lei Sai also knocked on the door: "Good son-in-law, are you in there?"

As soon as these words fell, Lei Jinjin’s scolding burst out, followed by the sound of the Lei family father and daughter fighting.

Lu Hong, speechless, stopped meditating, opened the door, and said, "You two, stop making a spectacle of yourselves, okay?"
