A person in the heavens, starting with a Chaos Emperor Dao Fruit

Page 317

This is the Great Wilderness at night, a forbidden land for ordinary creatures. Nighttime belongs to the ancient remnants and peerless powerhouses.

But in a corner of the Great Wilderness, within a mountain range, a glimmer of light exists.

Compared to the overwhelming darkness that shrouds the world, this little bit of light is not much different from a candle flame.

Upon closer inspection, the source of the light was not a fire, but rather a willow tree.

No, even describing it as just one plant isn't quite accurate.

The willow tree was only half left, with a trunk diameter of more than ten meters, but it was charred black all over, like charcoal.

Apart from the broken trunk, all that's left is a willow branch.

This branch was very healthy, lush and green, almost too healthy, forming a stark contrast with the scorched and withered main trunk.

Because this willow branch is glowing, the light source, like a candle flame, is emitted from it.

Its light enveloped the village behind it, sheltering this somewhat primitive and ancient village, and its roots...

A person.

As such a striking point in the darkness of the wilderness, the willow tree would naturally attract the attention of some beings.

For example, a large bird that blots out the sky and whose every flap of its wings creates a gust of wind.

For example, a humanoid upright creature as tall as a mountain, with blood-red eyes, and a foul odor when it walks.

For example, wherever you go, there is a large, silver centipede shrouded in darkness.

Without exception, when passing through this village, they did not choose to offend it, but looked at the willow tree and chose to leave.

As for the person under the willow tree, they didn't even notice him there. In their view, it was just barren land, like everywhere else.

And so, under the protection of the willow tree, the village endured another long, desolate night and welcomed the dawn.

At dawn, as the sun rises, its rays spread across the earth, dispelling the darkness that had seemed exceptionally long.

The willow tree had lost its mystique, its light dissipated, and it looked like an ordinary willow tree that had been struck by lightning but had stubbornly survived.

Extremely ordinary.

In the village sheltered by the willow tree, a group of children, ranging from four or five years old to over ten, were exercising in an open space in front of the village.

They were making some strange movements and demonstrating their boxing skills. They were very immature, but everyone was very serious.

A middle-aged man stood in front of the group of children, pointing them out and correcting their movements.

"When the sun rises, all things begin, and the life force is at its peak..."

The middle-aged man had a serious expression and started rambling on and on, basically telling these kids to exercise properly and not waste this precious time.

"Do you understand?" the man shouted at the end, and received a loud reply from the kids.

This pleased the middle-aged man.

The younger generation in the village are all very good; when they grow up, they will be able to guarantee the development of the village.

The premise is that no force majeure factors are encountered.

"I understand!"

Just then, a childish voice rang out, its answer clearly lagging behind the others.

It was a very small child, looking only one or two years old, probably having just learned to walk not long ago, with some milky white unidentified substance hanging from the corner of his mouth.

Now he has quietly infiltrated the team and is training with them.

He kept chanting "hum hum ha hey" while swaying and moving his whole body.

However, he was too small, practically a tiny little guy, wobbling around, which was very cute. Everyone was looking at him, and the atmosphere became a bit more relaxed.

The little one is fair-skinned and tender, very pretty and cute, with big eyes that keep turning around.

The childish, somewhat haphazard movements, along with the humming coming from his mouth, brought smiles to the faces of those who noticed him.

Everyone in the village likes this child very much.

"Hey, hey, I'm tired."

After practicing for a while, the little one couldn't keep going anymore. He sat down on the ground with a "thud," uttering a series of incomprehensible words.

His big, dark eyes watched the older children practicing, but his attention was quickly diverted.

He saw a five-colored bird!

This piqued his interest, and his eyes lit up. He then staggered off to chase after the bird.

Unfortunately, he failed to catch the five-colored bird even after several attempts.

But the little one didn't cry. He got up and continued to happily chase the birds, having a great time.

"Oh no, I can't keep up anymore, huff, huff." After chasing for a while, the little one plopped down on the ground again.

They're too young; they'll get tired quickly.

Chapter 694 Forced to Drink Beast Milk

She could only sit on the ground, her big eyes fixed on the five-colored bird flying around.

After a while, everyone finished their morning exercise, and it was time to eat. Little Dot heard everyone in the village calling for dinner and realized what was happening.

The birds stopped chasing and hurried back to their homes.

"Little one, time to eat!" the village elder called out, and the little one ran in just then.

In front of the old clan chief was a ceramic jar containing a white liquid with a milky aroma.

This is animal milk.

In the village, everyone knows that Little Dot has no parents and grew up drinking milk from animals. He is still very young, but he is no longer old enough to drink milk.

But there's nothing we can do, the little one likes to drink it.

"The little one is nursing again!" The other children in the village heard this and immediately started shouting, laughing happily.

The little one, however, was completely unaffected by the laughter of the others. He just smiled sheepishly and then watched expectantly as the old clan chief took the pottery jar off the stove and placed it in front of him.

The little one picked up a wooden spoon, dipped it into the earthenware pot to scoop milk, and put it in his mouth. His eyes immediately narrowed, and it was clear that he was thoroughly enjoying it.

A sip of milk every day is better than being a god.

After breakfast, the old clan chief left the room. The little one's eyes darted around, and he took a stone bowl, scooped the remaining milk into it, and then secretly ran out with the stone bowl in his arms.

Although the clan elder doesn't object to him drinking milk, he won't let him drink it all the time. He'll scoop some out now so he can have a sip whenever he wants later!

Although he couldn't resist drinking it all in one gulp.

The village's old clan chief, Shi Yunfeng, also noticed the little boy's actions. He smiled and shook his head, ignoring it, and went to find some of the stronger men in the village to discuss something.

The little one, carrying the stone bowl, ran along. Strangely, although he wobbled, he ran steadily without falling once.

Finally, the little guy ran to the vicinity of the willow tree and secretly looked around. There must be someone there, after all, the village is only so big, and the little guy had come to the vicinity of the willow tree, so he would be seen at a glance.

However, when everyone saw that it was a little one and what the little one was holding, they just smiled and didn't call him "little one".

The village's darling, the little one.

Finally, the little guy looked at the animal milk in the bowl. He felt that he was hungry again after running such a long way.

Want to drink.

The little boy was thinking and lifted the stone bowl to put it in his mouth, but in the process, he saw something that made his hand stop.

"Huh? Is someone sleeping?" He saw a person lying under the willow tree!

The little boy scratched his head and looked at the willow tree. Although he was confused, he knew what the willow tree was.

The little boy hugged the stone bowl to his chest again, and then took small steps toward the person lying under the willow tree.

That area, still within the village's boundaries, was protected by the sacrificial spirits.

This one step caused many things to slide in a different direction.

The little one ran to the willow tree. Although the willow tree held an extremely high status in the village, the villagers were still allowed to approach it.

"Ah!" The little one exclaimed after he saw the person under the willow tree.

It's not that the person lying here is naked or covered in blood or anything.

"So beautiful!" The little one stared at the person with his big eyes without blinking.

As a young child, he has not yet developed in any aspect, and the words to describe a person's appearance, such as "good-looking," are already at their limit.

"I don't think I've ever seen this person in the village."

The little boy looked at the face of the person under the willow tree, thought for a moment, and realized that there really wasn't such a person.

The little one looked up at the willow tree. The spirit allowed this person to lie here, so there shouldn't be any problem, right?

After all, he's so good-looking, he probably wouldn't be a bad person!

The little boy slowly approached the person on the ground. He didn't know why, but he seemed to have no wariness towards this person.

Of course, at his current age, the little one doesn't understand such complicated things.

All he knew was that he wanted to be close to this person.

When the little boy approached the man, he found that he was still motionless and did not react to the outside world.

The little one tilted his head, looking at the very handsome person, and then at the stone bowl in his hand.

"Grandpa, the clan chief, said that you can give a person water while they are sleeping."

Shi Yunfeng: I didn't say that, don't talk nonsense! I clearly said when I was unconscious!

The little one thought for a moment, he didn't have water, but he had milk!

The little one looked at the milk in his stone bowl, looking conflicted, his little face scrunched up.

But in the end, he decided, "Hey!"

"You're so pretty, I'll just give you a little bit of milk, just a little bit."

The little one reluctantly held the stone bowl to the man's lips; this was the milk he had secretly scooped out!

When the stone bowl touched the person's lips, the little one was wondering whether he should pry open the beautiful person's mouth.

Then something happened that made him widen his eyes and open his mouth wide.

Before he even fell, all the animal milk in the stone bowl flowed into the mouth of this handsome man!

The process was incredibly smooth, with not a single drop spilled; it all went into his mouth.

The little one stared blankly at this scene, then raised the stone bowl, rim down, towards his face.

The little one shook the stone bowl with his little hand, looked at the smooth stone bowl, pouted, and looked aggrieved.

"Not a single drop left..."

I only gave you a little bit, but you drank all of my milk.

Bad guy! Little Dot suddenly felt that this person wasn't so good-looking anymore.

"Cough!" Suddenly, the person in front of the little one coughed lightly, as if the bowl of animal milk really was effective.

Although it is milk, it does contain a lot of nutrients.

The little one's attention was drawn to this person.

Are you awake?

"Where is this?" A hoarse voice rang out; it was the man who had just woken up.

"Inside the village!" the little one replied in a childish voice.

"The village?" The man's voice sounded a little doubtful, but it was normal now, without any hoarseness.

"What's the name of the village?" the man asked, his voice seemingly carrying a certain emotion.

“Stone Village!” the little boy answered; he did know the name of the village.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Little Dot!" Little Dot answered proudly.
