Chapter 982 — The Stubborn Elder Brother
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 2 of 4
After all, even beings like Fire Heavenly Venerable and Heaven Venerable Xu could not cross the Void Bridge on their own, yet this modest house could stand firmly here—truly strange. Fire Heavenly Venerable and Heaven Venerable Xu exchanged a glance and walked into the central room. Shen Mu's heart stirred; rather than follow them in, he reached out to sense Shen Fengqing.
He and Shen Fengqing were bound by blood; they had once shared a single body and a single soul, and a most wondrous connection existed between them. In the Land of the Great Void, he had been unable to sense Shen Fengqing, so he had deduced that Carefree Village was not in the Land of the Great Void. But once here, the moment he reached out, he received a response!
Within his Divine Treasury, butterfly-winged light suddenly burst forth, parting to both sides and growing ever larger, its reach growing ever wider.
Before long, the butterfly-winged light split apart, and with a gurgle, a huge, demonic eye was revealed.
It rolled twice, then fixed its gaze on Shen Mu's primordial spirit and said joyfully, "Naughty little brother, how did you get here? " Then two more eyes appeared, and Shen Fengqing's chubby face squeezed out of the void, followed by his body.
Shen Fengqing's projection sat in the void, arms crossed over his chest. His earlier joy vanished without a trace; he turned his head away and snorted, "What are you doing here?
Don't think that because it's been so long, I've forgiven you. You dug me out and dumped me in the Nether Capital, and you gave me your soul, which made me cry for ages! I'm doing wonderfully well now—I have fights every day and gods to eat every day! I'm telling you, you will never coax me back! " Shen Mu looked up and laughed.
"Brother, I missed you. " Shen Fengqing's face lit up in a beaming smile, and he turned around.
"I missed you too! Have you come to Carefree Village? Where are you? I'll go find you! " Shen Mu told him his position. "I only wanted to make sure you were in Carefree Village.
There are two Heavenly Venerables right beside me, so I won't lead them to Carefree Village.
You don't need to come over. I only needed to know that Carefree Village is here; then I'll go back.
" Shen Fengqing looked a little disappointed. After a moment, he said, "You mean the three houses? Those are extremely dangerous inside—traps left by the big fellows. Don't go in.
" Shen Mu was stunned and blurted, "Those three houses are traps left by the Creators? " He could not help but shudder.
The Creators had left traps at the end of the Void Bridge.
Anyone who crossed the bridge, having endured countless dangers and escaped death by a hair, would certainly go into the three houses to have a look! Once inside, he would fall into the Creators' traps, with no possibility of evasion! If Shen Mu had not been cautious by nature and first contacted Shen Fengqing, he would certainly have walked into those three houses as well!
"They are the Creators?
" Shen Fengqing was also stunned; he clearly had no idea who the big fellows were.
He scratched his big head and said, "Their taste is pretty good, though.
. . Those big fellows are wicked. They come attacking us every day.
Carefree Village is not carefree at all; we fight every day, and a lot of people have died. Since I came here, I've at least gotten to eat my fill. . .
" At that very moment, a violent shock burst out from the central house in front of Shen Mu, and a terribly dreadful aura exploded—it was Fire Heavenly Venerable and Heaven Venerable Xu, who had encountered danger and were fighting fiercely inside the room, struggling against some enemy unknown! The strength of the two Heavenly Venerables was unmatched in the world; even ancient gods like Earth Mother, Tubo, and Heaven Duke would not dare claim they could defeat them. Yet their opponent seemed dreadfully powerful, actually able to withstand the attacks of both Heavenly Venerables!
