Chapter 695: Fusang People
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Li Yunmu went to speak with the native islanders. “Do you know what this place is?”
“This-this is the eastern ocean. Where did you two come from?”
Li Yunmu’s eyes went wide open. They had surprisingly reached the eastern ocean? On Earth, wasn’t the eastern sea the same as East China Sea occupied by the Japanese? But the Japanese were no good!
Thinking of this, Li Yunmu nodded and said, “Do you know where the Ancient Lands are?”
The islanders suspiciously shook their head, which gave Li Yunmu a headache. If they got lost, how would he have to proceed toward the Ancient Lands?
At that moment, the system woke up and displayed a map in Li Yunmu’s mind.
[This is a map of the eastern domain.]
Li Yunmu rolled his eyes when he saw the map. “Hey, how could you screw up so easily? Why didn’t you give it to me in the water? If you had given it to me earlier, when we were in the ocean, there wouldn’t have been any problem with the waver boat!”
[I was unable to sense the surroundings in the ocean, so how could I give it to you? On the land, I can gather the data and make a map of the nearby places!]
When Li Yunmu took a better look at the system’s map, he was gobsmacked. “Crap! We have been fooled! The Dragon Silk Palace is clearly quite close to the Ancient Lands, so why did she say that it is a month away?”
The system was indifferent to his shock. [If she hadn’t said that, how would you have agreed to her condition?]
“We have clearly been moving in the opposite direction! This is the eastern ocean, so fortunately the waver boat got ruined; otherwise, we might have even reached the western region.”
Once Li Yunmu thought about how the dragon lady had cheated him, he became angry. “So what should we do now? We are so far from the destination that I don’t even know what to do.”
[Don’t be anxious. You still have a way, I marked the path on the map, so you only need to walk along it. There shouldn’t be any problems with it.]
Li Yunmu glanced at the path on the map. If he wanted to reach the Ancient Lands, his journey would be filled with hardships.
“This is the only way!”
It was impossible to take the same road back, so they could only take the route given by the system.
Just when Li Yunmu decided to leave the eastern ocean and advance in the northern direction to begin his journey, two groups of armed horsemen appeared. They surrounded him and Miss An.
“Who are you people? You surprisingly dare to enter the territory of Fusang. If you harmed the islanders, you will be shot and killed!”
Li Yunmu was slightly startled, and he cursed in his heart. What are these ghosts? They surprisingly dare to attack me and Miss An?
He could endure the insults of the leader of horsemen for the time being, but Miss An did not. She unsheathed her sword at the speed of a thunderbolt, and the leader’s head fell on the ground. In an instant, he died a miserable death.
All the onlookers shuddered from head to toe upon seeing it. The horsemen revealed terrified expressions and knelt on the ground after witnessing Miss An’s terrifying strength.
The Fusang people constantly shouted, “Spare our life god! Spare our life god!”
Li Yunmu laughed. The moment Miss An revealed her ability, the islanders surprisingly began to worship them as gods.
With that being the case, he and Miss An could turn into their god!
The islanders appeared to be extremely devout and were constantly kowtowing towardMiss An.
She coldly snorted and said, “Truly reckless people. You surprisingly dared to be rampant in front of this Miss; your pathetic lives will be the price for that!”
Li Yunmu suddenly felt a cold shiver run down his spine—the woman beside him was truly terrifying. He could not provoke her under any circumstances. If he did it, he would just be courting trouble!
After Miss An attacked, the stupid Fusang people began to worship her as a god.
In the eyes of Fusang people, the two strangers had become high level gods. When warriors who held administrative authority arrived where the gods had appeared, they saw the Fusang people kneeling in front of Li Yunmu and Miss An in worship.
The general of administration Jirou Okamoto wasn’t the least bit convinced and said in a rage, “What are you all doing? This old man is the god! You are making my people worship you, do you want to die?”
The warriors lifted their blades and surrounded Li Yunmu and Miss An in a way that not even a drop could trickle through.
“These Fusang people are truly reckless, even daring to provoke two people who are on the verge of breaking through into god realm. Since they want to die, I will help them!”
Dealing with the ordinary warriors without waiting for Li Yunmu to attack was a very simple matter for Miss An.
With a slight wave of her hand, the warriors instantly fell on the ground.
Seeing her terrifying strength, the general of administration immediately threw himself on the ground in fright. He had the strength of ordinary people only, so no wonder that the islanders were sincerely kowtowing in front of the strangers.
Jirou Okamoto knelt on the ground and paid his respects to Miss An and Li Yunmu like the other islanders.
When Miss An saw this scene, she nodded and said, “These people can be regarded as tactful. What do you plan to do next?”
The waver boat had been ruined, so if they wanted to proceed toward the Ancient Lands, it would be extremely difficult. Not to mention that not only did Li Yunmu not know the location of the Ancient Lands, even the native islands did not know where it was.
Li Yunmu looked at the map inside his mind and said, “We will move toward the north! Let’s go!”
Just as the two of them were going to leave, the islanders barred their path. They held onto their feet, not letting go.
“Well, aren’t these Fusang people energetic? This Miss will exterminate them today!”
Miss An with her fiery temper could no longer be bothered by the Fusangs. She was about to attack when one of islanders began to speak.
“God, I have a request. Please save the children of our nation! There is a large snake inside the Yamata river. Every year, it comes and eats the young children of our village. We’re been brought to the verge of disaster because of this monster. Heavenly god, we request that you get rid of this monster and return peace to this island.”
The islanders were very sincere and didn’t seem to be telling lies, which caused Li Yunmu and Miss An to hesitate slightly.
The problem was that they didn’t know the origin of the snake or its level of strength. If it were a divine beast, they would have little chance to win against it.
