Chapter 364: Chapter 352 Shocking and Sensational Statements

Lu Yun was sweating profusely. This was totally like being bullied severely and finally making it back to one’s own door, ready to find someone to back you up and prepare to complain, right?

But inside were all the elderly, weak, women, and children. Who was he preparing to find to support him?

Could it be that his mind was not right?

Or perhaps the able-bodied men of this place had actually gone out to fish and had not yet returned?

Lu Yun extended her spiritual power into the "Undersea Village" and suddenly discovered that the people inside began to panic and rush about. In a moment, everyone, regardless of what they were doing, put down their work—those who grabbed kitchen knives did so, and those who found big fish bones did so.

Those without handy weapons picked up pots and pans, rock chunks, or sharpened wooden forks and the like.

Looking on, a group of people, except for the truly old who were leading children who had instantly stopped playing and frolicking, hid inside the central house of the village.

The others, including the older children without exception, took up various "weapons" and gathered at the entrance as if facing a great enemy. Lu Yun suddenly felt a surge of guilt, as if she and Shitou were landowners and bullies, coming to oppress the tenant farmers.

She opened her mouth, intending to ask Shitou what the man was shouting, but then felt it was pointless to ask since Shitou wouldn’t be able to answer her anyway.

Looking at the middle-aged man who was still strenuously tugging at Shitou to no avail, he stood in place pulling hard, trying to drag him backwards. When it seemed impossible to move Shitou, he simply tried to act shamelessly, bending his body and hanging on Shitou’s hand, adamantly refusing to swim forward any further.

Unfortunately, despite his efforts, he still couldn’t stop himself from being dragged forward by Shitou.

Lu Yun covered her face, tugged at Shitou, and shook her head after Shitou looked over, "Let’s just let him go. Inside, they’re even ready with pots. If we keep holding onto him, won’t they really think we’re here to start a fight?

After all, we’ve found the place and there’s no rush; the monk may flee, but the temple won’t. I reckon the able-bodied men haven’t come back yet. Even if we enter now, those elderly, weak, women, and children probably can’t communicate calmly with us. We might as well just wait outside."

Upon hearing this, Shitou grinned, revealing appreciative eyes, and let go of the man’s hand.

With Shitou’s hands released, the man, caught off guard, tumbled downwards a couple of times before re-emerging. He kicked away and distanced himself from Shitou and Lu Yun, looking at them with uncertainty and disbelief.

Shitou and Lu Yun exchanged glances and, without prior agreement, sheathed their daggers. Seeing that the man was still scared, they both rolled their eyes, spread their hands to show they had no weapons, and then deliberately floated a few steps backward to completely distance themselves from him.

The man watched them guardedly, retreating step by step, then another two steps... and seeing that Shitou and Lu Yun indeed had no intentions of pursuing, immediately turned and fled toward the village’s gate in a frenzy.

"He sure can swim fast now," Lu Yun rolled her eyes emphatically, "But it’s no use running fast. That gate might stop others who don’t know how to get in, but we do."

Watching the man, who took a cautious glance at them before vaulting over the wall, reveal a relieved expression as he energetically flipped the switch to the luminous gate and zipped inside.

The door, as Lu Yun had predicted, was without a code or anything of the sort; knowing where the switch was, one simply needed to press it to enter.

"Look," the man began to take off his protective suit as soon as he entered the "village," animatedly talking and gesturing to the group of people around him. He was quickly brought to a house in the center of the village, and the murmur of the crowd outside began to rise. The tension eased slightly, but everyone still clutched their weapons and didn’t dare to leave just yet...

Watching the "silent drama," Lu Yun once again regretted not being able to understand sign language and silently resolved to master this skill when she had the time. She glanced at Shitou, raised an eyebrow quizzically, and wanted to know if he had understood the man’s lip movements; to her surprise, Shitou shook his head.

Lu Yun was taken aback, "They’re not using the interstellar common language?"

Now the joke was on them, how could they communicate with no common language?

Shitou couldn’t help but frown as well.

Inside the Undersea Village.

At this time, Tu Qi, who felt fortunate to have narrowly escaped with his life, began to take off his protective suit immediately upon entering the village. Someone came over to help him right away, handling the suit very gingerly as if they were afraid of damaging it by accident.

Once he had removed his suit, the helper quickly took it away, checked it carefully as usual, and then carried it into a room on the side. Following a discreet mark on the inside of the suit, the helper carefully placed it into a cupboard marked with the same symbol.

"What exactly is going on with those two outsiders?" Ba She, the eldest one guarding the door, could not help but ask as soon as Tu Qi had taken off his protective suit.

"At first, those two appeared beside the master’s spaceship, and I spied on them. But they discovered me, and I hurried back into the cave. After a long time, thinking it was safe, I peeked outside again, and finding them gone, I came out to see where they might have gone. Unexpectedly, I had no idea how they suddenly reappeared and caught up with me so fast. The cave was also discovered by them on their own; I really didn’t lead them there," Tu Qi said, looking dejected.

To this day, Tu Qi could not understand how he, known for being the most elusive, agile, and fastest among his clan, could get caught so easily and then even have his assailants find their way to his clan’s dwellings.

"You’re saying they not only discovered you, but they’re also faster than you?" Ba She looked incredulously at Tu Qi.

With a face full of dejection, Tu Qi nodded, "That man was too strong. He just lightly gripped my wrist, and I couldn’t break free. His strength was many times greater than that of Sa Duo. I suspect that even Sa Duo wouldn’t be able to free himself if he were in that man’s grasp."

The Sa Duo mentioned by Tu Qi was the most valiant warrior of their clan, capable of fighting three or four of their strongest warriors without falling behind.

After hearing Tu Qi’s words, some of the Da’er Clan members believed him, while others did not. Some were scared stiff, while others accused Tu Qi of exaggerating because of his cowardice...

To prove he wasn’t lying, Tu Qi fervently argued his case, becoming increasingly agitated as he hopped up and down. He was so focused on convincing everyone of his words that he didn’t consider the impact his words could have on the group.

Suddenly, the scene turned chaotic, and more and more people began to panic.

Ba She quickly silenced Tu Qi, who continued to spread alarmist talk.
