Chapter 175
Hu Yue drove them away and went back to the room Xiong Ye was in. She spoke angrily, “Xiong Ye, I reminded you long ago that that Shi Li was no good.”
“Hu Yue...” Xiong Ye sighed, “At the end of the day, he’s still a Beast King. In the future, don’t say these kinds of things.” He knew that Shi Li wasn’t kind, but considering the matters between them, he’d gone into it all willingly, so it really wasn’t good to put all the blame on Shi Li.
Hu Yue fell silent, but it was obvious that she’d heard him.
The people of the Big Bear Tribe hoped that Xiong Ye would stay, but they were all worried when they looked at Xiong Ye, and they all chattered incessantly as they tried to persuade Xiong Ye not to be sad...
Xiong Ye was obviously not used to this kind of attitude and refused to stay with them. He told them he had something to do and soon left with Zhou Ji.
The two of them returned to the residence that the Beast God Temple had arranged for Xiong Ye. At this time, the Beast God Temple had just delivered the ingredients for the evening.
It wasn’t early anymore, so Zhou Ji didn’t make any complicated dishes this time and directly roasted meat for them to eat. Of course, he added a lot of seasoning to the roasted meat.
Xiong Ye had grown up eating a lot of roasted meat, but this was the best roasted meat he’d ever eaten.
His mood became much better, “Thank you, Zhou Ji.”
“No need for thanks.” Zhou Ji said. He looked a little embarrassed.
Xiong Ye saw this and asked, “What’s the matter?”
“Xiong Ye, can I live here?” Zhou Ji asked. He sounded a little awkward, “I just saw that there are extra rooms here... My place in the Beast God Temple is a little broken... Um, I can take care of you.”
Xiong Ye was stunned for a moment then laughed and said, “Alright.”
“Thank you.” Zhou Ji said. He felt a little agitated in his heart. The Zhou Ji in his dream hadn’t done anything, and yet Xiong Ye had invited him to live in his cave. What about him? He’d cooked several meals for Xiong Ye, yet had still needed to take the initiative to ask to live with Xiong Ye, and they weren’t even sharing a room!
Although he was a little sad, Zhou Ji soon moved his things over to Xiong Ye’s residence and started living together with Xiong Ye.
At the same time, Yang Su was also finally able to find Shi Li.
Although he hadn’t been seriously injured when he was tossed out by Hu Yue, he was still aching all over. When he went to find Shi Li, he was even limping.
“Big brother...” When he saw Shi Li, Yang Su, despite being a mature man of forty, still looked like he was about to cry.
“What’s the matter?” Shi Li asked with concern. He’d always been very concerned about his last remaining relative.
“Big brother, that Hu Yue hit me and also drove me out. He even drove you out as well!” Yang Su complained.
“What exactly happened?” Shi Li asked.
“It’s that Hu Yue. She said that you and I are no longer part of the Big Bear Tribe in the future. She even beat me!” Yang Su spoke quickly and added, “Xiong Ye was clearly there, but he didn’t help me...”
“What?” Shi Li immediately became furious, “What gives her the right?!”
“She said that you and Xiong Ye will soon stop being mates, and said that she was going to drive you out of the Big Bear Tribe!” Yang Su said, “Based on what? Big brother is clearly the Big Bear Tribe’s tribal chief!”
Shi Li still felt a little guilty when Yang Su spoke the first sentence, but by the time Yang Su was finished, he was full of anger once again. He was the Big Bear Tribe’s tribal chief. It was unreasonable for Hu Yue to drive him out of the tribe!
What gave Hu Yue the right to do that?
Yang Su continued, “Big brother, Hu Yue is too arrogant. Xiong Ye also doesn’t take you seriously at all...”
The more Shi Li listened, the angrier he became.
He’d done so many things for the Big Bear Tribe over the years, yet this was how the people of the Big Bear Tribe treated him in the end?
It was enough that Hu Yue had never taken him seriously, but now she was actually trying to drive him, the tribal chief, out of the tribe. As for Xiong Ye, he was watching from the sides and didn’t even care.
After deciding to end his relationship with Xiong Ye, Shi Li had originally felt guilty towards Xiong Ye. However, at this time, any remaining guilt disappeared.
He should have separated from Xiong Ye earlier! Otherwise, he’d have helped out the Big Bear Tribe for nothing!
“Big brother, you have to help me!” Yang Su said.
“I understand. We’ll talk about this later.” Shi Li said. Right now, he had to go and find Xiong Ye immediately. What would he do if Xiong Ye reneged and refused to release him from their relationship?
“Big brother, that Xiong Ye is no good either. He can’t have children. You should break off your relationship with him!” Yang Su immediately added.
“I will break up with him.” Shi Li got straight to the point.
Yang Su was eager to have Shi Li and Xiong Ye end their relationship immediately, but he was still shocked when Shi Li said this.
“You’ve been kicked out and don’t have anywhere to live at the moment? Come with me, then.” Shi Li continued. He’d gotten to know many people recently and finding a place for Yang Su was an incredibly easy matter.
Yang Su quickly followed him.
Over the next few days, a rumor that Shi Li wanted to split up with Xiong Ye made its way through the Beast God Temple.
When the people of the various tribes heard this news, they were all quite sad–they’d all felt that the fact that the two Beast Kings were mates was something worth envying. Yet as a result, they were about to separate just like that...
However, this was quite normal. These two Beast Kings were both men and couldn’t have children together. It had been wrong from the start!
Everyone felt that this was normal and didn’t dare to comment on Beast Kings, so the entire matter blew over after two days of whispered gossip. After that, those who wanted to flatter Shi Li continued flattering Shi Li, while those who wanted to please the Big Bear Tribe continued to please the Big Bear Tribe.
In fact, there were some people who wanted to contact Xiong Ye, but they couldn’t find him!
Of course, in addition to all this, regardless of whether it was Shi Li or the Big Bear Tribe, they both had a good impression of the Beast God Temple. They even felt that... the Beast God Temple attached great importance to them.
Shi Li would think so because ever since he’d come to the Beast God Temple, the people of the Beast God Temple had been very enthusiastic towards him. In recent days, they’d also come over to inquire about his life and send people to serve him... Shi Li felt that the Beast God Temple must value him very much!
It made sense when he thought about it. It was rare for a Beast King to be as young as he was! If he could use that cultivation method to train up other powerhouses... he’d become the most powerful Beast King in the future!
As for the people of the Big Bear Tribe, they felt that the Beast God Temple valued them because... Recently, several high-ranking priests of the Beast God Temple had come to the Big Bear Tribe every day to inquire about Xiong Ye’s matters.
Not only that, these priests were very respectful towards Xiong Ye in their speech.
The people of the Big Bear Tribe didn’t hesitate to boast about Xiong Ye immediately, “Xiong Ye became a Beast King completely based on his own strength. Shi Li was different, and the reason he was able to become a Beast King was because Xiong Ye hunted down all kinds of crystal cores for him to use!”
“Xiong Ye is actually much more powerful than Shi Li!”
“It’s because of Xiong Ye that I’m still alive.”
......
The priests of the Beast God Temple who had purposely come over to inquire for news about Xiong Ye after learning that their Beast God was ‘chasing’ Xiong Ye all thought: They’d never expected that there was this kind of inside story!
They used to think that it was strange for His Majesty The Beast God to like Xiong Ye, but after hearing the things the people of the Big Bear Tribe said, they no longer felt that it was surprising.
Xiong Ye was really a very good person.
It was just that... was there something wrong with His Majesty The Beast God’s way of pursuing someone? Based on His Majesty’s identity, he could directly tell the other party his identity and have Xiong Ye offer himself up. Why did he have to pretend to be pitiful, follow Xiong Ye around , and make him food to eat?!
The high-ranking people of the Beast God Temple, led by the High Priest, all looked towards the place where the High Priest used to live and wanted to cry but had no tears.
It was like their cold and distant Beast God had suddenly transformed into another person.
Regardless of what everyone thought, the Beast God Sacrifice was still going to take place soon.
In the past, the High Priest would beg and plead over and over again, but Zhou Ji would still be unwilling to participate. However, this time, he actually took the initiative to join in.
After all, that day was the day when Xiong Ye and Shi Li would split up!
Zhou Ji stood with the people of the Big Bear Tribe and watched the excitement.
High Priest: “......” He was singing praises to the Beast God on the stage while the Beast God watched him from below and had even knelt down... Although the Beast God probably hadn’t actually knelt and had squatted instead, he could still feel his own legs going soft! He couldn’t stand firmly anymore!
