Chapter 847: Chapter 531: My Dad Was Defeated by Your Dad!
If not for the weight of hatred, the obsession with revenge, they might not even find the meaning of survival.
Before, they lived merely to live.
Perhaps that is the true essence of survival?
Lu Siyu clearly recognized the origin of those bones, and despite his indifference, he still felt a bit unsettled, so he turned his head away.
Phoenix’s expression was the most complicated; she knew what the Zhong Royal Family had done to those Barbarians…
Little Fatty, however, was like a curious baby, looking around, and then quietly asked Tang Fei, “Brother, did I use to live here?”
“… You didn’t live here before, your father lived here.”
“Then how did my father meet my mother?” Little Fatty asked curiously.
Bo Gu heard Little Fatty’s question, with a loving smile on his face.
More and more ugly…
No matter which elder saw Little Fatty, they would show the same ‘parental’ expression.
It was as if some kind of buff was enhancing Little Fatty.
“Back then, General Tang Li came to our tribe, wanting to become the hottest friends with us. He said as long as we were willing to help him, he would lead our people out of the desert, to a life with meat to eat and wine to drink every day.”
“Your father was the first warrior of the Barbarian Clan at the time. He said if General Tang Li could knock him down, he would agree to all of General Tang Li’s conditions…”
“If General Tang Li couldn’t defeat him, then he would stay in the desert as his servant, going to Dushan every day to gather bamboo to feed his Vajra Beast.”
Little Fatty, mouth slightly open, looked at Tang Fei full of sorrow, and said, “Brother, no wonder I don’t feel smart… Originally, my dad wasn’t smart either.”
Family genetics, how to break this?
“Don’t worry.” Tang Fei glanced at Little Fatty and said, “When the time comes, I’ll find you a smart sister-in-law to improve your genes.”
Little Fatty shyly lowered his head and whispered, “Brother, I never thought about those things…”
“…” Phoenix.
“…” Lu Siyu.
With Man Niu leading, a group of people entered a tall and empty cavern.
In the middle of the cavern was a solemn altar, with a bronze tripod in the center exuding bright red mist, vultures cloaked in colorful feathers throwing bone after bone into the fire.
They were their collected firewood!
The ground of the cavern was covered with animal skin rugs, Bo Gu invited the guests to sit on the ground, and then stout female barbarians came over with bowls of thick red soup.
Quite courteous.
“Everyone have a bowl of milk to warm up.” Bo Gu himself took a bowl and drank it heartily.
Tang Fei looked at the red liquid in the bowl, surprised and asked, “You have milk here? Why is it red?”
“We don’t have cows… this is bear milk.”
“Bear milk?”
“Vajra Beast. You saw it.” Man Niu drank the bear milk in one gulp, then stretched his tongue to lick the bottom of the bowl clean.
Apparently, even such things were only available in limited supply.
Not something you can drink to satisfaction anytime.
“Vajra Beast… produces milk?”
“Of course.” Man Niu nodded proudly, speaking, “It eats so much bamboo every day, it naturally produces milk.”
“…”
In Barbarians’ eyes, everyone, including animals, must contribute the value they should.
The Vajra Beast eats a lot of bamboo, therefore, they must not only serve as mounts charging into battle but also produce milk…
Phoenix and Lu Siyu held the bowl of bear milk, looking at Tang Fei, seemingly wanting to say something.
They really couldn’t stand the salty and fishy burnt smell…
Tang Fei saw Bo Gu’s expectant eyes, laughed, and said, “Since we are here, let’s adapt. This milk from the Vajra Beast… none of you have tasted it before, right?”
“Have a taste, let’s try it together, this is a unique specialty of Dushan, you can’t drink it anywhere else… think of it as part of life.”
After finishing, he picked up the big bowl and drank it all in one go.
Bo Gu, Man Niu, and other Barbarian leaders showed relieved and proud expressions.
Like a relative from the city visiting Uncle Bo Gu’s house, he brought out the best specialty hoping for the guest’s love and praise…
Tang Fei wiped his lips, repeatedly praised, “Not bad, it’s good.”
“Really?” Lu Siyu asked.
“Of course.” Tang Fei said confidently.
Then Lu Siyu raised the bowl and took a big sip…
Her expression became peculiar.
She opened her mouth to spit, seeing Bo Gu and Man Niu’s nervous faces…
She could only hold back with all her might.
Trying to swallow, yet really unable to.
So, her cheeks puffed up high, angrily glaring at Tang Fei.
What on earth is this thing…
She’d rather eat a bowl of pufferfish.
Phoenix knew Tang Fei too well, the moment she saw the small smile at the corner of Tang Fei’s mouth when he said it tasted good, she knew there was embellishment.
So, when Lu Siyu was drinking, she merely held her bear milk silently.
Seeing Lu Siyu’s expression of bitterness with no tears, she realized Lu Siyu was deceived.
She dumped her bowl of bear milk into Tang Fei’s empty bowl, briskly said, “I’m not thirsty. Since brother likes this so much, have another bowl.”
“…”
Tang Fei stared wide-eyed at Phoenix.
This woman… is she a monster?
Tang Fei’s stomach was also churning uncomfortably; the bowl of bear milk was too much for him to drink.
Tang Fei immediately changed the subject, looked towards Bo Gu, and asked, “Then what?”
Bo Gu paused, asking, “What then?”
“I mean your story… you said Little Fatty’s father challenged General Tang Li.”
“Oh… oh…” Bo Gu realized his story was unfinished, with a remembering smile on his big face, he said, “That battle, big brother lost terribly… he had cultivated his Chaotic Power to the seventh page…”
“The seventh page?”
“Yes.” Bo Gu nodded, said, “Big brother had a picture book called the ‘Chaos Technique,’ he practiced according to the pictures to the seventh page…”
“How many pages in total?”
“Nine pages.”
Tang Fei nodded and said, “Your choice of words is… very lifelike.”
Bo Gu didn’t know if Tang Fei was complimenting him, continued to say, “Brother used the Chaotic Power, even if dozens of Vajra Beasts rushed over, he could knock them away.”
“But, after meeting General Tang Li, he was sent flying again and again…”
Little Fatty looked excitedly at Tang Fei and said, “Brother, my dad was convinced by your dad.”
“…”
What’s there to be so happy about?
“Big brother agreed to all of General Tang Li’s conditions, and not just that, he followed General Tang Li’s requests to transform our Barbarian Clan into the three battalions…
“Rush, Daredevil, Blood Mane…” Bo Gu patted Man Niu’s head, saying, “He is the son of Wutan, the chief of the Rush Battalion.”
Pointing to the other young barbarians beside, he said, “He is the son of Zoro, the captain of the Daredevil Battalion… he is the brother of Kuang Lie, the captain of the Blood Mane Battalion…”
“More than that, General Tang Li left us many weapons and supplies, and took the clever and sturdy young ones to Phoenix City, saying he wanted them to learn…”
“Beside General Tang Li was a good brother, he said that from then on, Dushan is also part of the Phoenix Empire, and the Barbarians and Phoenix people are one, even marrying off the women of the clan to big brother…”
Bo Gu’s eyes became fierce and scary, shouting in anger: “But… those cunning and treacherous Phoenix people, they didn’t keep their word… they killed General Tang Li, killed big brother, and killed our three battalions of Barbarian Warriors…
“They didn’t even spare the children in Phoenix City… they wanted to wipe our people out… but we Barbarians will never bow.”
“As long as there is one Barbarian left, we will fight the Phoenix people to the end.”
“Yes.” Tang Fei reached out to hold Bo Gu’s furry hand, and said loudly, “Blood debts must be paid in blood. As long as there is one Barbarian left, we will fight the Phoenix people to the end.”
“Here, this bowl is for the indomitable Barbarian Warriors.”
After saying so, he drank the bear milk in the bowl in one gulp.
Bo Gu, Man Niu, and other leaders were impassioned and boiling with blood, they instantly felt Tang Fei was one of them.
I’m moved to tears.
He understands us.
