Chapter 1323: World of Demons and Cultivators
Ning Shu was surprised to hear that the girl wanted to throw away the boar. She asked, “What will we eat if we throw it away?”
“We all have dry rations, so there’s no need to eat this kind of stuff.”
Ning Shu: “...”
Truly horrible. That man had said that this wild boar was to be their dinner, and she had really believed it! Believe, my foot!
It had been really hard for her to endure the stench in order to cut open the boar’s stomach. And she even got that stench all over her.
Ning Shu was also quite speechless. This girl had waited until she finished pulling all the organs out of the boar before telling her about the dry rations.
Ning Shu was too lazy to argue with her. She just grabbed a handful of grass to wipe off the blood.
The entire wild boar was buried in the hole. Afterwards, everyone huddled together.
By this time, the sky had already turned dark. Some birds in the forest were shrieking, producing a frightening cacophony of sounds.
In addition, the mottled shadows cast by the trees made the atmosphere very eerie. Everyone couldn’t help but inch closer to their companions.
One of them took out dry rations to eat. Ning Shu felt for the bag at her waist and found that it was empty. There was no water in her water pouch either.
She had originally wanted to eat a fasting pill, but upon thinking further, she realized that those two cultivators probably wouldn’t really abandon this group of people. They were likely still nearby, observing them.
Otherwise, how did they manage to appear in such a timely manner right after they killed the boar?
Cultivators had very keen senses. Even if she tried to eat the fasting pills secretly, she still wouldn’t be able to escape their eyes.
Moreover, she was far too weak right now to take that risk.
Since she didn’t have anything to eat, she could only lean back against a tree and start receiving the storyline.
This world was one with humans, demonic beasts, and demons. Humans cultivated to pursue immortality. Demons were wicked in nature and stole power from others to strengthen themselves. There was a huge demonic beast population. Although they had low intelligence, they had the advantage of being great in number. They dominated both the seas and the lands.
Humans, demonic beasts, and demons formed a three party balance of power.
The Azure Waters continent was incomparably vast. No one knew just how big it was. It was full of dangers and unknown places.
This was a world full of killing, a world where only the strong were respected.
The demons liked to devour the life force of cultivators so the cultivators had to fight back in order to protect their lives. Thus, the two clans had a very deep enmity, with both sides constantly trying to slaughter the other.
As for the demonic beasts, they lacked order as they had no commander to lead them. Sometimes it was like they existed for the sole purpose of bringing cultivators treasure. Cultivators would dig out their beast cores and harvest their body parts.
Demons also hunted demonic beasts for food. Although demonic beasts had the advantage of large numbers, they were disadvantaged due to their low intelligence.
At the same time, there were also human cultivators that ended up in the stomachs of demonic beasts.
Those who were strong survived. Those who were weak died.
The original host Xiao Susu was half-human, half-demon. Her dad was a very powerful demon and her mother was a human cultivator. Her dad had captured and raped her mother.
However, her mother had unexpectedly become pregnant and gave birth to the half-human, half-demon Xiao Susu. Her mother had wanted to commit suicide as soon as she gave birth, but her dad drained all of her mother’s life force before she had a chance to do so. Her mother had aged rapidly, until in the end, all that was left of her was skin and bones.
Xiao Susu grew up in the Demonic Cave. Since she had the blood of a human running through her veins, she didn’t have the abilities of the demons. Because of this, she became a pitiful existence that was often bullied.
When she was about fifteen, her dad sealed her demon blood and had her join Immortal Sect to steal their divine artifact, the Xuanyuan Sword.
This sword was created using a rare material of pure yang. In addition, at the time of its creation, its creators had imbued it with the fresh blood of a human with a pure yang physique so it was especially effective against demons.
Xiao Susu’s dad was a very powerful figure among the demons, and he had always desired to enslave the human race.
Back then, he had allowed Xiao Susu to be born precisely because he wanted to steal this divine artifact.
