Chronicles Of The Shura Clan

Chapter 81 - Ling Chen’s Dilemma.



Martial God Sect\'s Domain, Grey Wolf Village

The Martial God Sect\'s Domain and the Supreme Sword Dao Sect were separated by a large forest. Right before the large forest which served as a border between the two great sects, stood a huge mountain known as the Grey Wolf Mountain.

It was named that way because of the large number of Wolf that lived on top of the mountain. At the foot of the Wolf Mountain sprawled a village also named Grey Wolf Village.

All the houses in that village were clustered together or stood close together, and it looked like a whole. Surrounding the Grey Wolf Village was a huge wall built of wooden barriers and fences.

With the protection of these wooden barriers and fences, the wolves from the mountain couldn\'t easily enter the village to eat people.

The Grey Wolf village was self-sufficient. The people of that village were all hunters. They made their living by hunting the wild Grey wolves in the mountain, and the prey that they brought back would be distributed according to the contribution of each family in the village. Furthermore, they would also sell the furs and meat of the wolves to the nearby cities and towns to buy other necessities.

At this moment, within an abandoned and dilapidated hut in the outskirt of the village, Ling Chen sat on the wooden chair while looking at the little baby that was soundly sleeping on the floor next to him with an anxious look on his face.

As there wasn\'t any bed in the abandoned house, Ling Chen had to use his clothes to make a bed for the baby to sleep after he had brought him out from the void within his lower-dantian to the real world.

The little baby looked so adorable and innocent. He was soundly sleeping without a care in the world in his new made-up bed. For some unknown reason, Ling Chen wanted to be the best version himself for the baby and was ready to give him everything he never had

It\'s already been a day since Ling Chen had brought the unconscious baby out of his lower-dantian and he still hasn\'t woken up.

As for the dark lightning shadow, he had somehow merged with the baby before he had brought him out along with the long dark spear.

Nonetheless, Ling Chen didn\'t get freak out because he knew that the baby was alright and was just sleeping due to his profound connection with him.

At this moment, the thing that preoccupied him the most was how to take care of that baby. He didn\'t know the first thing about taking care of a baby. Hell, he was a baby himself.

He\'s only ten years and a half, and yet he was already a father. The baby was born out of the dark tree which was within his sea of consciousness, so technically, he was the baby\'s only parent.

To make matter worse, this baby wasn\'t a regular human baby. As such, Ling Chen had no idea if the baby would need to drink milk like a regular human baby and also eat the same food as a regular human baby.

And even if he did, he was a little child. How the heck would he be able to produce milk to feed the baby?

At this moment, Ling Chen\'s mind was in complete chaos because he had no idea what to do when the baby wakes up. What if he starts crying?. He had a million questions in his head and no answers. He might have the wisdom of an adult, but at the end of the day, he was still a ten years old child.

Aside from that, there\'s the case about Fang Lan and Hu\'er which needed his immediate attention. However, with the sudden appearance of the baby, he couldn\'t move and acted as he wanted to.

While Ling Chen was still racking his brain about how to take care of the baby as well as rescuing Fang Lan and Hu\'er at the same time.

Suddenly——

The earth shook as if there was an earthquake.

"The Black Eagle Bandits have come to collect the annual tribute" A loud and anxious voice suddenly rang out within the whole village.

"Bandits." Ling Chen murmured with a surprised expression on his face as he released his powerful spiritual sense and scanned the whole village as well as the surroundings.

No one in the village knew that Ling Chen had taken refuge in their village. When he first came to the village, it was night time. After scanning the entire village with his spiritual sense, he had found this dilapidated hut that no one ever visited and stayed there. Since then, he hadn\'t left this place. As such, no one was aware of his presence.

At this moment, Ling Chen could see the whole grey wolf village, regardless of age or gender, were rushing out with weapons in hand towards the entrance of the village.

"Hello, people of grey wolf village." A booming shout came from outside the fence.

With his spiritual sense, Ling Chen could see everything that was going on outside. The so-called black Eagle bandits group were about three hundred people and they all rode tall horses.

The leader of the group was a bare chest middle-aged man who was at the peak of the Martial Master realm. He had plenty of scars all on his upper body as well as one on his face which made him looked quite scary.

" Village Chief Lui, you already know the drill. It\'s time to deliver your annual tribute. According to the old rules, one copper coin per person." Shouted the leader again.

Though the people of the Grey Wolf village were surrounded by a group of bandits, they didn\'t seem to be afraid at all. Also, according to the leader\'s statement, one could tell that this kinda thing happened annually.

At this time——

The crowd in the Grey Wolf Village divided into a path, and a white-haired but sturdy old man walked past.

The village chief was named Lui Bu and he held the absolute prestige in the Grey Wolf Village

"Village chief," Shouted the crowd in unison. Though the village chief was old, he was the strongest person in the village with a late-stage Master realm cultivation base.

"Ha-ha, Village chief. Long time no see, you already know the deal. Hurry and pay up, we still have five more villages to visit." Said the leader with a loud vulgar laugh.

"It\'s actually the second leader of the black eagle bandits group." Answer the chief with an amiable smile on his face. It was as though the two of them were best friends." We were expecting you guys. Our village now has 752, so it\'s 752 copper coins. Am I right?"

" Haha, Old man Lui, you\'re right! It\'s indeed 752 copper coins." The second leader said while laughing.

The population of the village was obviously not 752 people, it was a little more than that. It was 812 in total. Nonetheless, the second leader also didn\'t seem to mind.

Not to mention he didn\'t have the time to count every single person in the village, there\'s more village waiting for him to collect the annual tax.

Furthermore, they didn\'t want to attract the attention of the authorities by massacring the entire village just for a few dozens of bronze coins nor killing their goose.

"Open the gate," The chief shouted.

"Creak…" The main gate of the Village was opened with a loud bang. Simultaneously, a man holding a large bag went directly to the gate, then threw it out in front of the bandits and quickly went back.

"Please count, Second Leader. There are 752 copper coins in that bag," Shouted the village chief.

"Go count," The leader ordered two of his subordinates.

Two men jumped off their horses immediately and ran to open the bag. The two bandits apparently did this often, as they were very skillful. After just a moment, they had finished counting the money in the bag. They then turned back to the second leader and nodded.

" Hahaha, Chief Lui is indeed trustworthy. Boys, what do we say to our benefactor."

" Thank you for your patronage Chief Lui." shouted out the 300 hundred bandits in unison. Also, there was a hint of sarcasm in their voice.

"Chief Lui, you can go back and have your dinner. See you again next year. Haha, let\'s go, boys!"

Ah...ah.....ah...ah.....ahhhhhhhhhhhh!

However, right before they were about to leave, the loud cry of a baby suddenly rang out somewhere within the village.

"How dare you wake up my child, you bastards."

Right after that, a powerful, angry, and childish voice rushed out from somewhere within the Village as well. The voice struck out like thunder from the sky, everyone heard the resonating outrage. Just these words alone startled everyone here.

Swoosh!

At the same time, a powerful spiritual pressure spread out throughout the whole village, pressuring both the bandits and the villagers, rendering them immobile.

Bang!

After that, an explosive sound could be heard. Everyone could see the roof of one of the abandoned and dilapidated houses within the village exploded as a person flew out of it.
