Chapter 161.2 - Going Home

The next day, Zhou Ji woke up just after dawn.

Then, he discovered that a lot of people were kneeling outside the room that he and Xiong Ye had settled in.

Some of them had come to worship him as the Beast God, while others had come to plead for their sins.

Yesterday, Zhou Ji had already observed all the people in the Beast God Temple with his spiritual strength and had some understanding regarding each person’s situation...

He opened the door and directly began to announce his decisions.

The Beast Kings needed to accept the punishment he handed down. As for the High Priest... The High Priest would no longer be a priest, and would be expelled from the Beast God Temple. Additionally, some of the people who idled and abused their power in the Beast God Temple would also be expelled from the Beast God Temple.

The High Priest knelt down and thanked him for his lenience. Being expelled from the Beast God Temple was actually a very serious punishment for him since he couldn’t hunt at all and the other tribes wouldn’t take him in. After leaving the Beast God Temple, he might lose his life.

However, when he thought of how Shi Li had died after Zhou Ji had gone to see him yesterday and even died in everlasting regret, his punishment could be considered light.

The Beast God hadn’t directly killed him.

Zhou Ji was too lazy to take care of too many things. He soon finished sorting out the mess in the Beast God Temple and dealt with everything that needed to be dealt with. He also placed the old priest in the High Priest’s previous post.

After that, the mating ceremonies that hadn’t been completed yesterday could resume today.

Of course, there was no need for Zhou Ji to show up for this.

Zhou Ji went back to rest. He asked people to go and call over the Big Bear Tribe and bring over his things.

He was really a little unaccustomed to not having his own things and being served by the people he was used to...

The people of the Big Bear Tribe soon came over. They all looked at Zhou Ji as though they had just seen a god.

Well, in the eyes of these people, he was indeed a god.

In any case, since everyone knew about his abilities, Zhou Ji no longer hid them. After people set up the pot on the cooking frame, he openly took out some seeds from his supplies and sprouted them so that he could cook them.

For example, he sprouted a lot of soybeans, then stopped infusing them with power while they were still green and tender.

Green soybeans boiled in salt water with the pods removed were very tasty. They were also very tasty when steamed or put in soup.

He had traded for all kinds of seeds, but just looking at the seeds alone wasn’t enough for Zhou Ji to see what kind of plants they were. He hadn’t had time to sprout and grow them... Now that he had time, he simply grew some of them to maturity.

Zhou Ji therefore obtained several more types of vegetables, including his favorite, eggplant.

His movements when he performed all these actions were smooth and casual, and the people of the Big Bear Tribe were stunned as they watched.

They’d known that Zhou Ji was very powerful, but they hadn’t known that Zhou Ji was actually this amazing!

Xiong Ye called out Zhou Ji’s name, but then he changed his words because of everyone else’s gazes, “Beast God...”

Zhou Ji: “......” He didn’t mind being the Beast God since he would be able to live a very comfortable life if everyone served him, but this didn’t include Xiong Ye!

He had also thought that after yesterday’s intimacy, his and Xiong Ye’s relationship would return to normal. Unexpectedly...

Zhou Ji looked at the people of the Big Bear Tribe, “Everyone, leave.”

The people of the Big Bear Tribe immediately filed out.

Zhou Ji watched as they left, then looked at Xiong Ye, “Xiong Ye, I have something to tell you.”

“What is it?” Xiong Ye asked.

Zhou Ji stated, “There is no Beast God in this world.”

Xiong Ye was a bit muddled––wasn’t Zhou Ji the Beast God?

Zhou Ji explained, “I’m not the Beast God at all. It’s just that I’m very powerful, at a level that is above that of Beast Kings. If you continue cultivating properly, you’ll become like me one day. By then, you’ll also be a Beast God.”

XIong Ye became even more muddled and confused.

Zhou Ji pulled him close when he saw him like this and gave him a kiss on the mouth.

Xiong Ye was inexplicably worked over by Zhou Ji just like this once again.

He finally believed that Zhou Ji wasn’t the Beast God now.

How could the Beast God be like this!

However, even if Zhou Ji wasn’t a Beast God, he was still an existence more important than the Beast God in his heart.

After suddenly becoming the Beast God, Zhou Ji had originally planned to spend a few days at the Beast God Temple and live comfortably for a while.

Everything was available here, and there were countless people waiting on him. He quite enjoyed it.

He deeply suspected that in his last life, during his years as Beast King, he had remained at the Beast God Temple just so that he could eat and drink and enjoy life.

However, although he had thought it all out, in reality, there were many problems to deal with.

Zhou Ji had only lived there for a few days, but he already felt that it was a little unbearable.

The people of the Beast God Temple were so enthusiastic about him that they couldn’t wait to rush over and kiss his toes one by one.

Not only that, Xiong Ye wasn’t used to the life here.

Xiong Ye definitely preferred life in the Big Bear Tribe to life in the Beast God Temple. He also missed the house they had in the Big Bear Tribe.

That was his home.

After staying at the Beast God Temple for several days, Zhou Ji finally decided to leave.

Of course, he took a lot of things with him when he left.

All kinds of plant seeds, spices, utensils, some workers, and... a group of Beast Kings and a group of priests.

Zhou Ji had actively chosen to bring the Beast Kings along, but those priests... had simply insisted on following.

Their group slowly departed from the Beast God Temple and set out towards the Big Bear Tribe.

The old priest who was now the High Priest was very reluctant as he watched Zhou Ji leave, but as a High Priest, he couldn’t follow him, and his physical condition wasn’t suitable for such a long journey. He could only send Zhou Ji away with tears in his eyes.

His eyes were so heated that Zhou Ji had goosebumps on his skin...

The group slowly left the Beast God Temple. This time, Zhou Ji’s recliner was no longer the previous one but rather a beautiful sedan chair inlaid with precious stones.

He thought that it was all very luxurious, but this new recliner really did look very nice.

When everyone stopped at night after a day of walking, Zhou Ji asked Xiong Ye to process the food so that they could start cooking as usual.

“Great Beast God, how could you do such a thing?”

“Benevolent Beast God, we should be the ones doing this kind of work.”

“Beast God up above, I actually didn’t take good care of the Beast God...”

......

The priests who followed them all wanted to cry.

Zhou Ji: “If you don’t shut up, you can all leave.”

These people immediately shut up, but they looked at Xiong Ye with very reproachful gazes––the Big Bear Tribe’s tribal chief actually ate the food that the Beast God made!

A few days ago, Xiong Ye was always eating alone with Zhou Ji. Now that this kind of situation came up, he was a little unaccustomed to it, “Zhou Ji, they’re very unhappy with me...”

“Don’t worry about them. There are things that will make them even more unhappy.” Zhou Ji said.

Xiong Ye didn’t quite understand, but when they were about to set out the next day, he saw that Zhou Ji had turned into his animal form. He even changed to a size that was suitable for riding. “I’ll carry you today.”

Xiong Ye looked at Zhou Ji in surprise. He knew how lazy Zhou Ji was, but now, Zhou Ji was offering to carry him?

“Come up.” Zhou Ji said.

“No need...” Xiong Ye refused. “It’s better if I carry you.”

Xiong Ye didn’t even finish speaking when Zhou Ji picked him up with his trunk and set him on his back. Zhou Ji even said, “I rarely give you a chance to ride me during the day. You should take advantage of the opportunity!”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Xiong Ye felt that... Zhou Ji was acting a little strange. He’d never ridden Zhou Ji at night, right? Hold on, it seemed like he had ridden him before...

He was a little happy now––everyone around them were all staring at him with incredulous gazes now that he was riding on Zhou Ji’s back.

Before, when others knew that he was a Beast King and thought that Zhou Ji was a weakling who didn’t even have an animal form, they had used such gazes to look at Zhou Ji.

Now that Xiong Ye was receiving such looks, he inexplicably felt that... it felt pretty good.

Just as the thought flashed in his mind, Zhou Ji carried him on his back and ran far away from the people behind them.

“Zhou Ji!” Xiong Ye was startled and clutched at the fur on Zhou Ji’s back.

Zhou Ji suddenly spoke, “You’ve now ridden on my back, so you have to be together with me for a lifetime.”

“Yes!” Xiong Ye said. He wanted nothing better than to be together with Zhou Ji forever.

Zhou Ji had always been lazy, but at this time, he suddenly felt that carrying Xiong Ye on his back and walking felt very good.

This was the person he liked, the one he loved.
