Chapter 1843: Chapter 1844: White Tiger Dharma Aspect
Like the Vermilion Bird Tribe, this settlement with the White Tiger Immortal Core is also a small gathering of humans.
Though the population is not large like the Vermilion Bird Tribe, it has reached a certain scale. At a rough glance, Su Chengyu estimated that there were tens of thousands of people.
With the favor of the White Tiger Immortal Core, the development of this tribe was noticeably better.
What surprised Su Chengyu even more was that people in the tribe seemed to have embarked on the path of cultivation.
Not the Martial Way, but genuine enlightenment, stepping onto the cultivation path as cultivators.
Although their numbers were few, only a handful.
For a tribe with only a few tens of thousands of people, it was actually not too few, especially considering they likely had no cultivation methods and relied on their own insight to walk this path.
"Sir, have you discovered anything?"
"Don’t worry, this time it doesn’t concern you."
Su Chengyu’s calm response made Hu Xiao instantly more at ease.
In the Vermilion Bird Tribe, he stayed with the Demon Clan alone; although he didn’t feel any danger, not being by Su Chengyu’s side always made him feel uneasy, as if Su Chengyu might abandon him at any moment.
Now that Hu Xiao knew more about Su Chengyu, he naturally didn’t want to miss out on this great opportunity.
Su Chengyu saw this but was too lazy to point it out. As long as Chang Li didn’t want Hu Xiao dead, whether he lived or died wasn’t something he cared about.
"We’re more or less in their activity range, let’s land first."
As Su Chengyu finished speaking, Hu Xiao immediately descended from the clouds, quickly bringing the two of them back to the ground.
Looking around, Su Chengyu soon found a trace that was obviously left by humans.
Slightly nodding his head, Hu Xiao immediately took the two to the intended destination.
After Hu Xiao stopped, Chang Li gasped immediately, instinctively feeling uncomfortable and wanting to turn away.
Noticing this, Su Chengyu acted as if he saw nothing, merely getting off Hu Xiao and briefly examining the two corpses of the big monsters before him.
Two birdlike beasts, each about the size of half a human, lay dead in the wilderness, their bodies broken.
Their Demon Cores had long been taken, and the two corpses were starting to rot and emit a foul odor, suggesting that at least a month had passed since the incident.
"What a waste; at least these are two Demon General corpses. Though they might not taste great, they are undoubtedly nourishing."
Hu Xiao lamented quietly.
Su Chengyu glanced at him and said, "What? You want to eat them? I don’t mind; you can go ahead."
Upon hearing this, Hu Xiao quickly turned and grinned apologetically.
"Sir, how could you say such a thing? Not to mention the corpses have been there for so long that their demonic power has dissipated. At my realm, I wouldn’t stoop to such actions. But the one who took them down..."
Hu Xiao glanced at the two bird demons’ corpses again and pondered for a moment before saying, "At most, it’s someone at the level of a Demon General; otherwise, the battlefield wouldn’t have so many battle scars remaining. Isn’t this just a blatant waste?"
Su Chengyu chuckled silently, leaving Hu Xiao very puzzled and prompting him to press further.
"Sir, did I say something wrong?"
"No, your judgment is quite accurate. The battle traces around here have been long gone, yet they remain. The gap in strength between both parties can’t be too vast. But fundamentally, you got one thing wrong; it wasn’t a Demon General who killed these two bird demons."
Hu Xiao was stunned for a moment and said, "Could it be an ordinary Big Monster?"
The powerful Demon Clan can indeed face enemies beyond their realms with formidable innate divine abilities, but such situations are rare. Moreover, Hu Xiao was more confused about how Su Chengyu could make this determination based on scant battlefield evidence.
"No, it isn’t."
Su Chengyu spoke again, and Hu Xiao became even more perplexed.
Just as Su Chengyu was about to say more, he suddenly sensed an incoming aura and looked up: "You don’t need to guess anymore; the main character has already arrived."
As Su Chengyu finished speaking, several people clad in crude leather garments appeared in his line of sight.
Their level of civilization was clearly several levels higher than the Vermilion Bird tribe.
However, judging by the simple cutting of animal pelts to drape as clothing and primitive weapons in hand, they were not significantly advanced.
Noticing Su Chengyu’s gaze upon them, the other party first uttered a few bizarre sounds, seemingly attempting to communicate with him.
Yet, the language of the White Tiger Tribe was entirely different from the Vermilion Bird Tribe’s system, and the few similarities weren’t enough for Su Chengyu to deduce their meaning.
Just as Su Chengyu was about to convey his meaning using Divine Sense, the other party’s Divine Sense came first.
"Demons ahead, step no further, or you’ll suffer the same fate as these birds on the ground!"
The conveyed thought was somewhat awkward, but Su Chengyu could clearly perceive the meaning.
"You needn’t be nervous; we mean no harm, only wish to learn about your customs and practices."
Though the words ’customs and practices’ may not be entirely comprehensible, Su Chengyu believed they would understand his intent.
However, after the message was conveyed, they responded with hostility, planting something resembling a soul banner into the ground, conjuring a White Tiger phantom behind them through the draw of mana.
"Depart! Or die!" fre eweb\(n)ovel(.)co(m)
Their firm stance and the formation they presented made it clear that Su Chengyu, as an uninvited guest, wasn’t welcome. Before Su Chengyu could speak, Hu Xiao had already spoken up.
"Sir, should I teach these reckless individuals a lesson?"
"Hmm?"
Su Chengyu had a thought, opening his mouth subconsciously before deciding, when Hu Xiao, like a startled bird, quickly explained.
"Rest assured, sir. I know my limits, and I won’t strike lethally."
Seeing this, Su Chengyu sneered, "I still prefer the unruly version of you at the start."
Not understanding Su Chengyu’s intent, Hu Xiao could only chuckle awkwardly, stepping aside.
Su Chengyu naturally wouldn’t engage with these individuals; the disparity in strength was too great. If Su Chengyu really fought, he couldn’t probe into what cultivation system these people practiced.
As for Hu Xiao, the outcome would likely be no different; the realm gap was still too large.
Originally, Su Chengyu intended to retreat temporarily if they weren’t welcoming, then investigate the White Tiger Immortal Core matters secretly, not intervening excessively in their development like with the Vermilion Bird Tribe.
But the White Tiger conjured by their soul banner intrigued Su Chengyu, so...
"Chang Li, engage with them and see."
The suddenly called-upon Chang Li was momentarily shocked, looking at the others and pointing at himself somewhat incredulously.
"Me?"
"That’s right, you."
