Vol. 2 - Chapter 367 - Nighttime Discussion



"How dull," she murmured softly, her voice laced with amusement. And then, with an almost ghostly movement, she vanished into the shadows.

None of them noticed her departure, and moments later, the mysterious woman reappeared in front of the village chief. The village chief\'s expression did not change upon seeing her, as though he had expected her arrival all along.

"Old man, it seems your village has attracted quite a few outsiders," she said with a bemused tone.

The village chief raised an eyebrow, surprised. He had clearly ordered that no outsiders be allowed in, and the villagers would not dare disobey him. So why were there strangers wandering about?

"How could that be? I explicitly gave orders to keep outsiders away. Are my villagers no longer listening to me?"

The woman smiled slyly, her lips curling into a mocking grin. "Those bumbling fools, they couldn\'t even tell those two apart from their own people, just because they changed clothes."

She chuckled softly before adding, "I didn\'t expect your villagers to be so dull-witted. They can\'t even spot outsiders dressed in the same attire."

The chief\'s expression darkened. He hadn\'t anticipated the woman to insult his villagers so openly, especially when he had agreed to collaborate with her. He felt there was no need for such disrespect."Enough, I\'ve already agreed to cooperate with you," the village chief said with a stern expression. "There\'s no need for you to keep insulting my villagers. If you continue with these insults, don\'t blame me for being hostile."

The woman chuckled softly, clearly unimpressed by the chief\'s words. To her, the idea of the village chief posing any threat was laughable. After all, he was just a mere mortal, and no matter how strong he was, he couldn\'t possibly surpass her power.

"Oh? I\'m intrigued," she replied mockingly. "I\'d love to see how you plan to make good on that threat."

Her tone and demeanor made it evident that she looked down on the village chief. While the chief was indeed powerful in his own right, he was nowhere near the level of this mysterious woman. The reason he had chosen to submit to her demands was solely to protect his villagers from her wrath. He wasn\'t in a position to challenge her openly, and he knew that.

The chief was acutely aware that if he pushed back against her now, it would only bring harm to the village. He had to think beyond his pride and focus on the bigger picture, ensuring the safety of everyone under his care. Sacrificing his ego was a small price to pay for protecting the village from destruction.

"What do you want me to do?" the chief asked calmly. "Should I drive those people out, or do you want me to deal with them permanently?"

The woman sighed, clearly finding the situation tedious. In truth, she didn\'t see those people as a significant threat. However, she couldn\'t deny that Zhang Nu and his companion had potential. If they were given the time and opportunity to grow, they might one day become strong enough to challenge her.

She relished the thought of an actual opponent who could match her strength. For far too long, she had existed without any real challenge, effortlessly dominating all who stood before her. Perhaps, if Zhang Nu and his companion continued to develop, they could provide her with the excitement she longed for.

For now, though, they were still far too weak to be of any concern.

"The village may no longer see peaceful days. That man\'s arrival here will surely bring endless trouble. I have a feeling he\'s not as simple as he seems, and one day he\'ll grow into a formidable force."

The village chief, though unsure of the full meaning behind the woman\'s words, understood the potential threat. If this man had the capability to grow and become dangerous, it would be better to eliminate him now rather than let him continue to develop.

"If he will one day rival you, why not stop him now while we can, and nip it in the bud??"

The woman, however, found the chief\'s mindset incredibly dull. The only reason the chief found life interesting was because he had an entire village to protect. If the village chief no longer had anything left to protect, he would likely become as lonely and desolate as she was.

"I just want to see how far he can grow," she said. "The omens suggest someone will emerge to challenge us, a youth who may ultimately destroy us."

"I\'m curious whether that youth is him."

Upon hearing her words, the village chief found her logic absurd, as if she were a madwoman. Knowing full well that destruction could be on the horizon, she remained indifferent and nonchalant. If that was her mindset, there was nothing more to be said. Let her pursue her folly, and when she meets her end, the village would rejoice.
