Chapter 172: Sleeping Quietly
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
To put it another way, he was not worried whether they would betray him or not.
He was also not worried whether they lived or died.
Their existence did not make a difference to him, and they were not important to him at all.
They immediately became even more cautious, terrified that they would court death for themselves or their species if they did something wrong.
Wang Hu did not care about what the five species thought. He said coldly, “I will give all of you five days. After five days, gather all the Divine Body Realms of your species and wait at the world passage.
“You Ming, the four of you shall supervise.”
“Yes.”
The Patriarchs of the five major species and You Ming’s group immediately complied.
After they raised their heads again, the Godfiend being that made them feel helpless was gone.
Apart from You Ming and the group, the other beings all breathed a sigh of relief. They looked at each other, feeling complicated.
The five major species, who were enemies for years and have fought against each other numerous times to gain ascendancy, were now subordinates to one being.
It inevitably made them feel complicated.
They were quiet for a moment, and their expressions were hard to read. They did not leave immediately.
The Man Wu Patriarch looked coldly at You Ming and the group, prompting the others to also look coldly at them.
The strong pressure lunged at them, making You Ming and the group—who were already feeling frantic—lower their heads and groan to themselves.
They did not have the power to supervise the five major species.
“Patriarchs, you all may discuss the matter of gathering the Divine Body Realms, we shall take our leave first,” You Ming said while forcing a smile, and he immediately left with the other three after he finished.
Ming Shuo—the You Shuo Patriarch—snorted and sent a telepathic message to say: “The King does not seem to be from our world.”
There was no change in the expressions of the other four. They seemed to have already expected that.
If they still hadn’t figured this out by now, then they would have been the Patriarchs of the five major species in vain.
“Doesn’t that world have low spiritual energy density levels? Aren’t their beings weak? Why do they have an existence as strong as the King?” the Tian Li Patriarch said sullenly and cautiously.
The other Patriarchs also showed the same sullen expressions. It was also coupled with traces of resentment and hatred.
Regret filled their minds. If only they knew that there was a being as strong as Wang Hu in that alternate world, they wouldn’t have dared to invade!
However, it was all too late.
Their lives were no longer in their hands. The survival of their species was also up to that Tiger King to decide.
Fight back?
The five pairs of eyes looked at each other and saw caution and wariness against each other.
In the past few days, they had killed many members of other species. In addition, they also have hatred and animosity for each other from the countless fights they underwent over many years. They were not willing to trust each other yet.
If one of them decided to betray them, then it would be over.
More importantly, even if they worked together, would they really be able to fight back?
They thought back on the massacres, and all of them shuddered. They eventually left with grief and helplessness in their eyes.
We better preserve our species first.
Wang Hu crippled and subdued the five major species, which far exceeded his goal in entering the alternate world this time.
He began to recover his divine powers while dispersing the murderous aura on his body.
At the same time, he was also recovering his spirits.
He fought consecutively five times and traveled such a long distance. His divine power was sufficient since he kept replenishing it, but the mental exhaustion could not be eased in such a short while.
Currently, he flew at an average speed.
After more than half a day, he arrived at the world passage. The 5,000 Second Realms had already escaped as he expected.
Wang Hu did not mind, and he exited from the world passage.
This was the remarkable thing about the Earth world passage. Logically speaking, his strength had far exceeded the spiritual energy density of Russia, and he should not be able to enter Earth.
However, he managed to enter Earth by going through this world passage again.
It seemed that the Earth had an automatic detection function. Regardless of how strong the being was, as long as they were from Earth, they could enter and exit all the world passages freely.
China and the other human countries already figured this out a long time ago.
Wang Hu was also confident in entering this Lichi alternate world because he knew this for a fact.
Once he returned to Earth, an innumerable amount of attention was placed on Wang Hu.
Then, after a few seconds, most of it was gone.
Wang Hu immediately called Bay, the Russian Leader, and told him that he could withdraw his troops now.
He would be taking over this alternate world from now on.
As for the matter regarding territory, he would give Bay some time to handle it.
Bay readily agreed. After a few minutes, the major general stationed here came to say goodbye to Wang Hu.
The troops started to withdraw.
In the Russian capital, in Bay’s office, he had just ended the call, and his expression was that of shock and solemnness.
“He asked us to withdraw troops directly. Is he absolutely confident in dealing with that alternate world?
“No, I’m afraid that’s not all. Maybe he has already planned an invasion into that alternate world.
“How incredible.
“How strong exactly is he?
“That alternate world is a Grade 3A one… the spiritual energy density is at the eleventh stage of the Third Realm, just slightly away from being a Fourth Realm world.
“If Russia wants to withstand the invasion by the Deep Abyss, we will need the Tiger King’s support. We must rally the Tiger King over with everything we can.”
After Bay muttered to himself, the office fell quiet again.
…
Wang Hu was anxious to return to the Tiger King’s Cave after he saw that the Russian troops started to withdraw.
After fighting for a few days, the closer he was to home, the more he missed it.
The golden light returned to his room without disturbing anyone except for Silly Girl.
“I’m home!”
Wang Hu yelled outside the room and walked in.
Silly Girl was still sitting cross-legged on the bed, cultivating. It seemed that Wang Hu’s return did not cause any attention from her.
Wang Hu did not mind. He was already used to the prideful Silly Girl who always put on airs and graces.
He walked to her and pulled Silly Girl into an embrace. His head rested on the nook of her neck, he took a deep smell of her hair, and he closed his eyes in contentment.
Di Baijun opened her eyes and looked resigned. She coughed and said coolly, “You’re back. How did it go?”
“Everything was good,” Wang Hu said, and his voice was muffled.
The breath he exhaled landed on Di Baijun’s skin, making her feel itchy. She moved unwittingly, held in her laugh, and said proudly, “You have all the information?”
“Yes, I know everything now.” Wang Hu exerted more strength and hugged her more tightly.
Di Baijun wiggled, sending him a wordless message.
That’s enough; it’s very tight. Don’t go overboard.
“It won’t be a danger to Big Treasure and Little Treasure?”
Her voice was serious when she asked.
“It won’t.” Wang Hu was also equally serious, and his voice was full of confidence, “I already calculated. Big Treasure and Little Treasure will definitely not be in danger.
“We could just treat it as bringing them on a holiday.”
Di Baijun glared at this rascal who was spouting nonsense again.
How would invading a world be similar to a holiday?
However, she felt at ease hearing what the rascal said.
This rascal may be unreliable sometimes, but she would not worry about him undermining Big Treasure and Little Treasure’s safety.
Once she was put at ease, Di Baijun immediately felt excited, and her battle spirits seethe.
She had been bullied by this rascal for so long, yet she still couldn’t win over him.
She had felt suppressed for so long, she must definitely let herself thoroughly enjoy the fight this time.
Di Baijun felt excited at the thought of doing something like conquering a world which she had never done before.
However, when her eyes wandered, she noticed that the rascal actually fell asleep already.
Is he pretending?
She became suspicious out of instinct.
Just as she wondered, she was pulled down to the bed.
Di Baijun snorted lightly, and she was certain now that the rascal was pretending.
Really, he’s thinking about doing that the moment he comes back.
As she thought of it, her face turned flushed. However, she did not refuse, and she went along by lying on the bed.
The next moment, she frowned. Why isn’t he locking the door yet?
This rascal…
She thought of doing it herself but felt embarrassed to do so.
She waited for a few seconds and felt this rascal hugging her more tightly, but nothing else happened.
Another 10 more seconds passed, and she pouted.
This rascal really fell asleep.
…
When Wang Hu woke up, he felt that his mental fatigue was completely swept away.
Then, he also felt the soft body in his embrace. He opened his eyes and saw Silly Girl’s flawless face resting on his arm as she slept.
He broke into a gentle smile and suddenly felt that everything was worth it.
He did not do anything, except to watch her quietly.
To think of it, the moments where both of them just slept like this were rare.
After all, they didn’t need sleep at this point of cultivation.
Silly Girl—who was lying in his embrace—moved around a lot when she slept, and both her legs were resting on his body.
Her lips were slightly pouted, making her look arrogant and cute.
One look at her, and he knew that she was easily restless.
The other biggest difference was that her usual coldness was gone.
In Wang Hu’s eyes, she looked adorable and innocent.
He quietly formed a shield around them with his divine powers to allow Silly Girl to sleep better and longer.
However, after half an hour, she still woke up.
When she saw the rascal looking straight at her, her face turned red, and she quickly turned her face away.
The bashfulness made Wang Hu’s breathing pause for a second.
Even though they already had an intimate relationship, Silly Girl was still very easily embarrassed.
It made Wang Hu very happy because he liked to see Silly Girl being shy very much.
He would never get tired of looking at her.
He sensed that she wanted to get up, and he quickly hugged her tight to keep her in place.
He gently said, “No need to hurry, let’s lie down a while more.”
“What is there to lie down for?” Di Baijun said with a muffled voice, but she did not try to get up again.
Wang Hu was already used to her saying ‘no’ when she actually meant ‘yes’. He hugged her tightly as they lay on the bed, and he said with a chuckle, “I just want to hug you like this forever.”
Di Baijun’s lip corners curled upward, but she still let out a snort, expressing a little bossiness and some contempt.
Wang Hu smelled the nice fragrance emanating from her as he lay on the bed quietly. He could not help himself but exclaim, “Baijun, do you know? I sometimes admire the common family of humans.
“They don’t have to worry about too much. They sometimes have pressure, but they still live happily together.
“Every day, the husband and wife sleep together and wake up together in the morning.
“Both of us haven’t slept together, like we just did, in such a long time.”
Di Baijun went quiet. She started envisioning the image, but she did not know what to say.
After a few seconds, Wang Hu laughed again. He boasted, feeling proud of himself, “That’s just a momentary vision I had. I prefer the life we have now… because I have you.
“If I lived a common life like that, how would I get to have you, Baijun?”
Di Baijun’s face went flushed again, and joy and pride were visible on her face.
Her beautiful hands patted the rascal, and she said with a bashful voice, “All you know is to speak nonsense.”
Wang Hu hugged her even more tightly.
They continued to lie on the bed and flirt for a while more. Finally, under Silly Girl’s urging, Wang Hu got up reluctantly because the two little fellows ran into the room.
Wang Hu looked at the two little fellows who ran in without concern for anything, and suddenly, a thought came to his mind: children were indeed troublesome.
Children were always involved in a married couple’s life.
Sigh!
These two little troublemakers.
“Eh? Daddy, you’re back.”
“Daddy, do you have presents for me?”
Wang Hu raised an eyebrow. Not only were the children troublesome, but they were also two little heartless troublemakers.
Wang Hu spent a few days at home to instruct Old Second and Jun Wen to prepare for the move of Tiger King’s Cave.
Their current location was quite far away from the world passage leading to the Lichi world. Additionally, they had more and more Transformation Realms… and a bigger territory.
Hence, it was necessary for Tiger King’s Cave to move.
The resources from the Lichi world would be able to let Tiger King’s Cave grow even faster.
Although it was a pity, they would have to temporarily give up the dinosaur world.
The new Tiger King’s Cave would be located near the northern border of China, not far away from the world passage to the Lichi world, making it convenient for them to enter or exit the two worlds.
Moving was not an easy feat.
They had to prepare the plans for current and future developments in advance. Wang Hu left this to Old Second and Jun Wen to handle.
After assigning the mission to them, Wang Hu’s mission was to completely conquer the Lichi world within the shortest time possible.
By then, Old Second and Jun Wen would have completed all the planning, and Wang Hu would return on time to oversee the moving.
After everything was ready, five days have passed.
Wang Hu—along with the battle-ready, full-of-anticipation Silly Girl and the two little fellows—arrived at the place where the demon soldiers and generals were located.
“Greetings, my lord!”
Seeing that Wang Hu arrived, the six demon generals immediately knelt down reverently with the 10,000 demon soldiers.
“This is my Queen and children.”
Wang Hu carried Big Treasure, and his domineering eyes swept over the demon troops.
Immediately, the demon troops greeted.
“Greetings to the Queen, greetings to the prince and princess.”
The 10,000 demon soldiers yelled.
Di Baijun carried Little Treasure. She emanated a cold and domineering aura, as though all the kneeling demons were just some ants.
At the same time, she nodded to herself. They needed some subordinates when conquering a world, but the beasts from Tiger King’s Cave were not adequate yet.
These demons would be the best cannon fodder.
The two little fellows carried by Wang Hu and Di Baijun looked a little timid and curious at the same time.
There are so many beings.
Are they also Daddy and Mommy’s subordinates?
Prince and princess… are they referring to Big Treasure and Little Treasure?
Their little bodies lay quietly in their Daddy’s and Mommy’s embrace, and their big naive eyes looked curiously without blinking.
“Let’s go.”
Wang Hu instructed coldly and walked in front together with his family.
