Chapter 132 – Flattened

Zhu Yan had known that these people should be a trading team sent out by a tribe as soon as he had first seen them.
He hadn’t paid any attention to them because they had all looked like they were in a very sorry state.
Everyone was soaked and only had a piece of animal hide wrapped around their waists. The smoke from the wet firewood had darkened some of these people’s faces, and as for food… These people obviously couldn’t even afford to eat meat. At this time, they were preparing something that looked like wheat, and there was someone else killing a few birds.
They were even eating birds that didn’t have much meat… This tribe was definitely a poor one!
Zhu Yan didn’t place any importance on this trading team. When he saw that Zhu Zhu was amongst these people, he had already decided to teach these people a lesson. Yet as a result… He actually saw Zhu Zhan here.
Zhu Yan didn’t like Zhu Zhan.
Zhu Zhan had never been close with him, but not only that, Zhu Zhan had been getting stronger and stronger in recent years.
According to the traditions of their tribe, the position of tribal chief was usually passed on from father to son. However, if there were other strong people in the tribe, the position of tribal chief could be snatched away by others.
He had had so many children just for the sake of avoiding having his position as tribal chief end up snatched away by others––if he had several more excellent children, then it would become impossible for his position as tribal chief to end up in other people’s hands!
But to his surprise, his eldest son ended up being so outstanding.
Zhu Zhan was very strong. Although he was currently only a medium level Beast Warrior, he would certainly become a high level Beast Warrior in a decade. By then, would he still be able to hold onto his position as tribal chief?
It was because of this that Zhu Yan didn’t like Zhu Zhan very much. When the incident happened, causing Zhu Zhan’s leg to end up twisted, and he became a man shunned by the Beast God, Zhu Yan had disliked him even more. When the priest of their tribe proposed to exile Zhu Zhan, he hadn’t objected.
Now, Zhu Zhan had returned!
Zhu Yan stared at Zhu Zhan in shock. “You’re not dead?”
“I didn’t die. I’m back.” Zhu Zhan said.
“You were rejected by the Beast God, and you’ve already been exiled. What did you come back for? Do you want our entire tribe to be hated by the Beast God?” Zhu Yan raged.
“I’m already fine.” Zhu Zhan stepped forward.
Before, Zhu Zhan had hurt his leg, and the injury had been very serious. It had healed crooked, and he should’ve had a limp when he walked, but now… He appeared to be perfectly fine.
Zhu Yan didn’t understand why that was the case and couldn’t quite react to the change. As for the people behind Zhu Yan, they were also very surprised.
After Zhu Zhan had his accident, some of Zhu Zhan’s people had gone into the wild forest with Zhu Zhan while others had followed Zhu Yan’s arrangements and done other work. In short, there was nobody who supported Zhu Zhan by Zhu Yan’s side.
“How can you be fine? Did you make a deal with the devil? You bastard…” Zhu Yan was incredibly furious.
The people of the Big Bear Tribe gave Zhu Zhan sympathetic gazes.
Many fathers had bad relationships with their sons in their tribe, but there weren’t any that would purposely harm their child like this… This Zhu Yan seemed to be a bad person…
Zhu Zhan and Zhu Yan went back and forth. The tension between the two of them was palpable.
It was at this time that the sound of crying rang out.
Everyone turned to look at Zhu Zhan’s three children and discovered that the three children were being hugged by Zhu Zhu and hadn’t cried at all. That meant that the crying came from…
“Grandfather, I’m a little scared.” Xi Baobei stopped crying after a few cries, but his tears hung from his eyelashes as he looked pitifully at Hai Feng.
This giant rhinoceros youth was a little silly in the head. His usual actions were similar to that of a four or five year old. It was because of this that Zhou Ji didn’t like him very much and wanted him to stay away––four or five year old children weren’t easy to take care of!
However, Hai Feng was different.
Previously, Hai Feng had always been in his animal form, and he lived in the water. Not only did he not have any relatives, he also didn’t have anyone he was close to.
The people of the Beach Tribe who often interacted with him regarded him as a God and worshipped him.
So, he was actually a little lonely.
In addition, humans were very strange creatures––most of them unconsciously started to like the younger generations of their race as they grew older.
Xi Baobei was a little silly and didn’t understand anything, but he wasn’t particularly fierce. Generally speaking, he was very very obedient and likeable. Hai Feng had been a little reluctant when he first started taking care of him, but as time went on, he felt that this child was pretty good. After he asked the child to call him ‘grandfather’, his feelings towards the child started to improve rapidly even more.
Now that Xi Baobei was crying…
Hai Feng spoke, “Zhu Zhan, why are you talking so much? Is there any need to chatter on continuously?”
Zhu Zhan fell into a daze.
Hai Feng continued, “This kind of person will become better behaved after you beat them up. If you can’t make a move because he’s your father, I can help you beat him.”
Zhu Zhan: “……”
Xiong Ye added, “This man is really a bit long winded… I can also help you fight.” Zhou Ji was still resting, and these people were endlessly making noise outside. It was quite irritating.
Zhu Zhan didn’t even have time to say anything before Zhu Yan had already been enraged by Hai Feng and Xiong Ye.
A sorry-looking old man and some fellow who had only just reached adulthood were both clamoring to beat him up… Were they crazy?
Zhu Yan was angered into laughter. He spoke to the people behind him, “Catch Zhu Zhan and his children, and kill Zhu Zhu!”
Zhu Yan also felt that it was a bit foolish to try and talk to Zhu Zhan here. It was better if they just caught them all directly.
As for those people who were chattering about helping Zhu Zhan fight, “Kill those people too!”
These people wanted to beat him. Were they sick of living?
Zhu Yan’s subordinates acknowledged his order and immediately charged towards Zhu Zhan. Seeing this situation, Zhu Zhu didn’t hesitate to turn into her animal form as well, intending to protect Zhu Zhan.
However, at this time, Xi Baobei suddenly shouted, “Don’t kill people!”
After shouting, he turned into a giant rhinoceros and kicked over a boar.
A boar weighing a few hundred kilograms was no match for a giant rhinoceros that was a few thousand kilograms in size.
“Giant rhinoceros?” Zhu Yan took in that giant rhinoceros and the color drained from his face––what kind of relationship did this person have with the Rhinoceros Beast King?
He was puzzling over this when Hai Feng rushed over, “Big grandson, don’t fight. What if you get hurt… Your grandfather will flatten them all by himself.”
Xi Baobei turned back into his human form and replied obediently, “Alright!”
“You’re sick!” Zhu Yan sneered when he heard Hai Feng’s words. He didn’t even turn into his animal form as he charged at Hai Feng to kill him.
He had originally been a bit scared when the giant rhinoceros came out as he was afraid to provoke the Rhinoceros Beast King, but this middle-aged person had called him ‘grandson’…
The Rhinoceros Beast King’s father had died a long time ago. This youth definitely wasn’t the Rhinoceros Beast King’s child. Since that was the case, he wasn’t scared anymore.
Zhu Yan felt that it would be an easy matter for him to kill Hai Feng.
However, the truth was that it was the complete opposite.
His fist ended up caught by Hai Feng when it arrived in front of him, and then he was tossed away.
Tossed away.
While he was ‘flying’ through the sky, Zhu Yan suddenly remembered the bodies they’d seen before… Had those people really fallen to their deaths?
A lot of thoughts flashed through Zhu Yan’s mind, but the truth of the matter was that he soon landed on the ground. Of course, he hadn’t fallen to his death.
He was a high level Beast Warrior!
Zhu Yan climbed back up and turned into his huge animal form intending to continue the fight. As a result, a person from the Giant Pig Tribe flew towards him, followed by a second, and a third…
The huge giant pig ended up flattened by the succession of flying people.
Zhu Yan roared unwillingly, and the people he had brought with him ended up in a pile beside him. Many of them had passed out.
Who exactly was that person? Why was he so strong?
In Zhu Yan’s mind, the words ‘Beast King’ suddenly flashed through…
While Zhu Yan was being scared by his own thoughts, Zhou Ji, who had noticed that the fight was over, finally came out of his tent. “The living conditions in the Giant Pig Tribe should be pretty good… Let’s go and stay in the Giant Pig Tribe. It’s too wet and uncomfortable here.”
“Ah?” Xiong Ye, who hadn’t had a chance to attack, was now a little muddled––why would Zhou Ji suddenly come up with this?
Zhou Ji continued, “They should have dry firewood there… Let’s go over there quickly and have breakfast there.”
Everyone had previously been thinking about fighting, or sympathizing with Zhu Zhan and feeling that it was too bad that Zhu Zhan had such a father, but after Zhou Ji said this…
Everyone who had been drenched by the rain all night just wanted to go to the Giant Pig Tribe and have a good rest.
“Right, the Giant Pig Tribe must have dry firewood!”
“Maybe they have delicious food.”
“Let’s go over there quickly.”
……
Everyone started to discuss amongst themselves.
At this time, someone asked, “What about those people?” Zhu Zhan’s father and his subordinates were still lying there not far from them…
“Hai Feng, aren’t you still learning how to tie knots? Go and tie those people up.” Zhou Ji said.
“Oh…” Hai Feng picked up some ropes and vines and went over to tie those people up.
He wasn’t good at tying knots, and some of the people were struggling, making it hard for him to tie them properly… Hai Feng reached out and slapped the people who were struggling a few times so that they were flat on the ground and couldn’t move anymore before tying them up slowly.
Xi Baobei looked on from the side and praised him continuously, “Grandfather’s amazing!”
Hai Feng looked into Xi Baobei’s bright eyes and felt that he had to do a good job of this… With that in mind, he immediately grabbed Zhu Yan who had just been about to try and escape, casually slapping him around a bit and breaking his arm––this made him easier to tie up.
“Who exactly are you?” Zhu Yan finally couldn’t help asking.
“Hai Feng.”
“Are you a Beast King?” Zhu Yan continued to ask.
Hai Feng nodded, “Yes!”
Zhu Yan: “……” You’re a Beast King! Why don’t you act like a Beast King at all?! Why is a Beast King doing things like tying us up?!
