Chapter 128 The Youth in Ash Robes (2/2)
After toiling for an hour, he was finally done roasting the Genesis Beast. Zhou Yuan retrieved a dagger and cut a slice for each of the two young ladies, before dumping a good chunk of the leftovers to the drooling Tuntun.
Dong dong!
However, while they were engrossed in enjoying their food, they suddenly felt the ground begin to shake.
The trio lifted their heads and peered into the depths of the mountain, only to see numerous Genesis Beast fleeing in fright as if something terrifying was right at their heels.
Luluo muttered in alarm, “It can’t be the Gu clan, right?”
Zhou Yuan eyebrows knitted together as Genesis Qi began surging around his body. His eyes were tightly fixed on the dense forest where he could faintly sense an extremely sharp and dangerous sensation.
Was it really the Gu clan?
A long while later, a rustling sound emerged from the depths of the dense foliage under Zhou Yuan’s alert gaze, and he watched as a figure slowly walk out.
As the figure emerged, Zhou Yuan was finally able to get a clear view of him.
It was a young man in ash colored robes. He carried a heavy black sword on his back, while a piece of black cloth had been wrapped around his eyes. Even so, his footsteps were both firm and steady.
Moreover, wherever he passed, the trees nearby would silently split open, the revealed interiors smooth as a mirror.
“What formidable sword Qi!”
Zhou Yuan’s expression turned grave as he observed the youth whose eyes were wrapped in black cloth. The aura from the latter’s body made him feel a prickling pain all over his skin. It was obvious that this young man was astonishingly powerful.
The youth in ash robes slowly approached, eventually arriving before Zhou Yuan’s group.
Roar!
Tuntun released a low roar, black light surfacing within its mouth.
The youth’s footsteps paused, clearly having sensed several extremely powerful existences in front of him.
Zhou Yuan vigilantly watched the youth in ash robes. They would take action the moment they detected any strange movements from the latter.
Thus, the atmosphere became silent for a time.
Growl.
However, the atmosphere was suddenly broken a moment later by a certain sound as strange expressions emerged in the Zhou Yuan trio’s eyes. The sound had come from the stomach of youth in ash robes who had just made an extremely cool entrance.
The situation became rather awkward all of a sudden.
An almost undetectable tremble seemed to ripple past on the youth in ash robes’ face as he finally opened his mouth and croaked, “I’ve been starving for three days.”
Pfff.
Luluo could no longer hold back her laughter.
The corners of Zhou Yuan’s mouth twitched. Brother, your entrance was so cool. Why did you have to use such a comical opener.
However, he also breathed a sigh of relief. Looks like it wasn’t the Gu clan.
“It just so happens that we have some food here, we can eat together.” Zhou Yuan pointed at the remaining half of the roast meat.
The youth in ash robes nodded at Zhou Yuan before seating himself. He did not bother with any pleasantries, immediately grabbing the roast meat as he began to ravenously wolf it down.
Zhou Yuan was a little shocked by the sight of him eating. “There are Genesis Beast all over in the mountains, why didn’t you just kill one and roast it to eat?”
The youth in ash robes swallowed the meat in his mouth, before he replied, “Don't’ know how, it will taste horrible.”
Zhou Yuan let out an exasperated chuckle. All three of them were little lords and ladies. Come on, he was also a prince in the Great Zhou Empire, how had it come to this point where he was now practically a chef?!
Luluo propped up her chin, all smiles as she stared at the youth in ash robes and remarked in a drawn out voice, “I never thought that I would actually encounter the rumored Blind Sword of the Sword Empire…”
