Perfection: He is the Heavenly Emperor, I am the Eastern Emperor!

Chapter 33 Mountain Uprising

Shi An's words made the old wolf very uncomfortable, and a fierce glint flashed in its eyes. However, after considering the other party's strength, the old wolf couldn't help but soften and let out a pleading cry to Shi An.

Do you think I'd believe you?

Shi An merely sneered at this, then suddenly raised his right hand, gathered divine light, and punched it on the head. This punch was incredibly powerful; wherever the fist passed, space seemed to be torn apart, accompanied by a rumbling sound, directly striking the old wolf's crown.

"Bang!"

A burst of brilliant divine light pierced through its entire body, and the powerful force even caused the earth to tremble violently.

The light in the old wolf's eyes quickly dimmed, its massive body trembled violently a few times, and finally collapsed helplessly to the ground, completely losing its life.

This scene deeply shocked everyone present, including Shi Hao.

For young Shi Hao, this scene was undoubtedly a spiritual shock and a catalyst for his growth.

Shi An's cold and decisive punch not only ended the old wolf's life, but also seemed to be silently telling him: in this world where the strong are respected, compassion and weakness often mean self-destruction.

The villagers of Bei were so frightened that their faces turned ashen, and they retreated repeatedly.

They had never seen such terrifying power before. For a moment, they didn't even dare to think of running away. They could only stand there dumbfounded, letting fear spread through their hearts, afraid that Shi An's wrath would also fall upon them.

However, after dealing with the old wolf, Shi An did not make another move. He simply withdrew his fist quietly and looked into the distance with a smile.

There, a group of people was approaching.

The group of people galloped over, standing out conspicuously in the night. It was the Shi Village hunting team, which had rushed to provide support on Shi Yunfeng's orders.

However, when they got closer and saw the situation clearly, everyone was immediately stunned.

Is that all?

Seeing the fearful faces of the villagers not far away, Shi Linhu quickly went to Shi An's side and asked, "Xiao An, are you alright? And what's this...?"

"Has it been resolved?"

As he spoke, Shi Linhu pointed to the Bei Village people on the other side.

"Yes, Father! It's all resolved."

Shi An nodded, then looked at the group of trembling Bei villagers and asked, "Father, what should we do with these people?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Linhu pondered for a moment, then swept his sharp gaze across the crowd and said in a deep voice, "The actions of the Wolf Village this time were indeed excessive, but if we were to go on a killing spree because of this, it would probably draw criticism from other villages. However, if we do not punish them, they may become even more unscrupulous in the future."

"How about this..."

At this point, Shi Linhu paused slightly, then glanced at the crowd again: "How about we make them hand over the people who participated in the attack on the mountain guards, then compensate our village tenfold for the losses, and promise not to invade our village's hunting grounds again?"

Upon hearing this, Shi An was not very satisfied. In his opinion, if the weeds are not cut off at the root, they will grow back in the spring breeze. They have already offended the other party to death this time. If they leave them a way out, there is no guarantee that the other party will not come back to haunt them in the future.

Seeing Shi Linhu's gaze, Shi An ultimately didn't do that. Instead, he turned to the group of trembling Bei Village people and said in a cold and clear voice, "Did you hear that? Do you have any objections to what my father said?"

In fact, Shi An's worries were completely unfounded. After witnessing how easily he dealt with their own sacrificial spirit, how could the people of Bei Village dare to harbor any rebellious thoughts?

Upon hearing his words, they immediately nodded in agreement as if granted a pardon, even as if afraid he might go back on his word. An elderly man who appeared to be quite prestigious stepped forward and, in a trembling voice, expressed his willingness to immediately prepare compensation and guarantee that the wolf village would never repeat the offense in the future.

Seeing this, Shi An had no choice but to nod in agreement.

In fact, he had just prepared to act immediately if the other party disagreed, but unfortunately, he was not given the opportunity.

Shaking his head, Shi An calmly said, "In that case, let's go and prepare!"

"yes!"

As soon as Shi An finished speaking, the people of Bei Village immediately sprang into action.

First, several villagers who participated in the attack were pushed in front of Shi An and the others, and then the others turned around and went back to the village to prepare for compensation.

Looking at the few Bei villagers who were ashen-faced in front of him, Shi An didn't waste any words. With a wave of his hand, he sent them to meet Bei Feng.

After dealing with these matters, Shi An's gaze fell once again on the busy Bei Village people in the distance, and a complex emotion suddenly welled up in his heart.

To be honest, he wasn't a bloodthirsty person, but in this world where strength speaks volumes, sometimes, ruthless methods are better at protecting oneself and everything one cares about.

"Phew~"

With a long sigh, Shi An made no further moves, simply watching the actions of the wolf villagers.

Soon after, the people of Bei Village returned with generous compensation, their faces filled with fear as they looked at Shi An.

Before long, the compensation was successfully completed, and the Shicun hunting team began packing their bags to return to the village.

Of course, before leaving, Shi An did not forget to warn them: "I hope you will remember what happened today. Although Shi Village does not want to provoke conflict, it is by no means a place to be bullied. If such an incident occurs again in the future, I will not show any mercy."

After saying that, Shi An ignored the once again silent people of Bei Village and returned to Shi Village with Shi Linhu and the others.

Time flies, and everything seems to have returned to calm. Seven days and nights have passed since Shi An killed the sacrificial spirit of Bei Village and received ten times the compensation.

For the past seven days, Shi Village has been immersed in an unprecedented peace. Shi An's heroic actions not only shocked the surrounding villages, but also filled the villagers of Shi Village with pride and a sense of security.

Shi Hao regards Shi An as his role model and trains diligently every day, hoping to one day become a hero who protects the village.

However, in contrast to the tranquility of Shicun, the depths of the mountains are far from peaceful, with the roars of beasts often shaking the mountains and causing rocks to tumble.

Especially today, a deafening roar suddenly came from the depths of the mountains. The sound was like a roar from the ancient wilderness, carrying endless majesty and terror. It shook the mountains and valleys violently, as if the whole world was about to collapse under this roar.

In an instant, all beasts knelt down and birds of prey soared into the sky.

Rocks tumbled down like a torrential rain, and trees swayed wildly in the wind. The entire forest seemed to be being kneaded and trembled by an invisible giant hand.

Immediately following, a Suanni, nearing the end of its life, slowly emerged from the depths of the mountains with heavy, slow steps, arriving at the outer area, clearly intending to find a place to die there.

"This king is finally going to die of old age, probably within the next couple of days!"

The appearance of this Suanni was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, instantly shaking Stone Village and stirring up thoughts throughout the surrounding hundreds of miles.

After all, the remains of the Suanni are a huge treasure, a truly unparalleled medicine with amazing effects that could drive countless people crazy. Who wouldn't want to possess it for themselves?
