Perfect Double Agent

Besides, there are many smaller worlds in this lower realm. He should go and explore them, even if it takes some time, it will be worth it.

The key is, how to find it.

……

a few days later.

A figure appeared from the edge of a large lake, leading a large, yellowish-brown rooster. He was covered in dirt and looked as if he had just crawled out of the ground.

The lake water is azure, the grass is lush and green, and the setting sun shines on the flocks of unicorns and the flocks of colorful chickens foraging on the grass not far away, making the scenery picturesque, harmonious and beautiful, and one reluctant to disturb it.

But the boy's appearance was like a jarring highlight. He was too strange. Not only was he leading a big, gray rooster, but he had also just crawled up from the ground. No one knew what he had done wrong.

"My God, a little kid has crawled out of the ground!" a woman washing clothes by the lake exclaimed.

"Uh..." Bai Ye was taken aback, shook his head and chuckled. He glanced at the setting sun, pointed to the rooster in front of him, and said, "Auntie, I came here unexpectedly and am unfamiliar with the place. Can I have a hot meal? I brought my own ingredients."

The woman by the lake was in her forties. Although she had experienced many hardships, she was still very simple and honest. She hesitated for a moment, feeling somewhat troubled, but seeing that the child was dirty all over and looked like he had suffered a lot, she couldn't bear to drive him away.

"That chicken is quite plump. Okay, you wash it in the lake first, I'll go cook." The old woman smiled, picked up the basin, and led the chicken toward a village by a river in the distance.

However, neither of them paid any attention, and even Bai Ye's gaze was involuntarily drawn to the golden carp swimming in the lake.

The carp swam in groups, each several feet long, golden in color, and naturally intelligent. They looked extremely plump, which made him a little hungry.

Meanwhile, at the village entrance, a woman gripped the rope tightly with a puzzled expression. She felt that the chicken was incredibly strong, running frantically towards the village, and even she almost couldn't hold on to it.

"Cuckoo..."

Meanwhile, for some unknown reason, the two living ancestors of the village also came out on their own initiative, followed by an old man with a puzzled look on his face.

Suddenly, the three chickens met on the village road and kept clucking, which made the two men look at them with a strange expression.

The rooster, in particular, was filled with grief and indignation, tears streaming down its face, trembling uncontrollably as if it had suffered a great injustice, which made the two hens feel extremely distressed.

Damn it, it's a perfectly respectable chicken, and that bastard treated it like a dog. Heaven knows how it's managed these past few days. It's been running through mountains and underground, covering hundreds of thousands of miles. It almost exhausted itself to death.

Fortunately, it did smell the scent of its own kind, and with the intention of making one last romantic gesture before it died of exhaustion, it brought that great demon king here.

As the rooster thought about it, it started to get physical. After all, it was going to be killed soon, and it didn't want to die without any regrets.

"Could it be... also Eight Treasures Chicken?"

"It seems so..." The old man looked at the three chickens cuddling together, his face full of disbelief.

Although the rooster was covered in dirt and ash, and its color was dull and lackluster, no matter how he looked at it, it looked like a rare and delicious chicken.

"Where did you get this from?"

"I met a child by the lake who said he wanted to mooch a meal. This chicken is for his food. I thought the child was quite strange, and I was just about to tell you about it." The woman pointed to the lake, where a blurry figure could still be seen squatting in the distance.

"What spendthrift would use Eight Treasures Chicken as an ingredient? I'll go check!"

The old man was very fast, like a gust of wind, rushing from the village entrance to the bank in no time at all.

When he arrived, his gaze suddenly sharpened. Good heavens, this kid was scaling fish. On that small stretch of shore, there were more than a dozen dragon beard fish, and they were the best quality golden scale fish.

"Not satisfied with the chicken? That shouldn't be the case. Last time I passed through a village, everyone said the chickens I gave them were good..." Bai Ye naturally sensed someone's arrival, but when he turned around, he was slightly taken aback.

"The old village chief?"

Shi Yunfeng was also stunned. Two years had passed, and the boy had grown much taller and stronger. He wasn't exactly burly, but he looked much more dignified. He couldn't see through him before, and he still couldn't see through him now.

"You are... Bai Ye?"

“Uh…I remember Ishimura is over there, isn’t it?” Bai Ye pointed north, somewhat speechless.

"Back then, during the Great Wilderness Uprising, we moved our village," Shi Yunfeng explained with a smile.

"It's much easier with acquaintances. I originally thought they wouldn't be willing to host me and I was planning to find another place to stay."

"What do you mean 'change'? From now on, whenever you come to the Great Wilderness, stay in our village. You're always welcome here, stay as long as you want, I said it!"

With a serious expression, Shi Yunfeng waved his hand, leaving no room for refusal, and enthusiastically pulled Bai Ye towards the village.

Bai Ye was stunned. This was indeed an accident. He had no idea where Shi Village had moved to, so he didn't look for it. But the result was unexpected, and he even received permanent residency from the village chief.

Chapter 50 Willow God's Question

"Tell me what you want to eat. Our village may not be very rich, but it will definitely be more filling than chicken."

Bai Ye sat on the stone bench at the village entrance and glanced at the Eight Treasures Chicken that already had a new nest. As a result, the chicken was so frightened that it trembled. Even the other two chickens were so scared that they almost crawled into the ground, as if they had seen their nemesis.

"Alright, let's not kill that one. I was wondering how it got here," Bai Ye said softly.

"However, we don't kill roosters, but we can kill hens."

"You have more?" Shi Yunfeng was surprised. "Child, look at my huge village. Take whatever you like."

white night:"……"

Finally, two more Eight Treasures Chickens ran out. The five chickens trembled and huddled under the willow tree, looking fearfully at the boy who was grinding his teeth.

Since Shi Yunfeng had already said so much, he couldn't bring himself to do it anymore. But the old man was determined and prepared a huge table full of dishes, even bringing out some of his treasured spiritual fruits.

"My health has improved a lot in the past two years. I often go for walks in the Great Wilderness and have picked quite a few fruits," Shi Yunfeng said with a smile. "It's all thanks to you all. By the way, where's your sister? Is she alright?"

"It's nothing. She's been in a bad mood lately, probably working hard on her cultivation," Bai Ye chuckled.

The witch wasn't just in a bad mood, she was practically traumatized. As a senior sister, proud and aloof as she was, she was gradually being left behind by her junior brother. No wonder she couldn't feel at ease.

"Where's Shi Hao?" Bai Ye asked back. At this hour, every household in the village was starting to eat, and that glutton Shi Hao couldn't possibly be absent.

"It should be soon." Shi Yunfeng looked at the setting sun and gazed into the distance.

However, just as the two were looking outside, a slight tremor suddenly came from the ground beneath their feet, and this tremor changed very quickly, from light to heavy.

"I'm back."

Sure enough, as soon as Shi Yunfeng finished speaking, a loud howl came from the distant wilderness, "Grandpa, you're starting to eat without waiting for me!"

It was a small figure, only about six years old, with a fair face and bright eyes. He was wearing a fur coat, holding a huge lion-elephant beast aloft, and running wildly with incredible strength, shaking the lake surface and scaring countless dragon-bearded fish into leaping out of the water.

A moment later, with a loud bang, the lion-elephant beast was thrown at the village entrance, drawing praise from several villagers who had been waiting.

"Grandpa...you didn't wait for me!" Shi Hao roared, full of energy, and led a foot-long Zhu Yan into the courtyard.

"Isn't this just right?" Shi Yunfeng smiled kindly.

"You are...Brother Baiye?"

Shi Hao naturally saw the smiling boy as well. Although the boy had changed a lot, he still recognized him.

So, the mischievous kid suddenly lunged forward, only to be caught by Shi Yunfeng. "Go wash up first!"

night.

The air was filled with the aroma of meat and wine. In the small courtyard, besides the old village chief, there were also Shi Linhu and others.

Without exception, they were all easily drunk out by Bai Ye, even Shi Hao was no exception.

"Father... Mother... I miss you..." Shi Hao lay in Shi Yunfeng's arms. Perhaps because he was drunk, two lines of tears silently slid down his resolute little face.

It's hard to imagine that a six-year-old child, after experiencing so much hardship, can still laugh and joke every day. But in reality, he has already learned to hide his emotions.

"He was a child with a tragic fate..." Shi Yunfeng sighed softly, "He originally had great talent and a perfect family..."

Bai Ye didn't speak, but listened quietly.

"Before, he was unaware of his origins and lived a carefree life. But after learning about his past, he began to prioritize cultivation, hoping to one day rise above others, become famous throughout the world, and let his parents know that he was still alive..."

"As long as he doesn't lose hope, the flower of his dream will eventually bloom, and he will see his parents again," Bai Ye comforted him.

“It’s tough. Five years ago, they said they were going to venture into a dangerous place to find a sacred medicine. It’s been five years now. If they could come back, they would have come back long ago… Perhaps…” Shi Yunfeng didn’t finish his sentence. He had seen so much life and death, and it was good to leave the little guy with a little hope.

"To be honest, I actually have a request..." Shi Yunfeng looked at Shi Hao in his arms, hesitant and reluctant.

Although this was the second time he had met the boy, he was an extremely trustworthy person. "I am only at the Cave Heaven Realm, so I can't teach him anything. The village is weak, so I can't give him anything either."

“But he’s a promising talent, and sooner or later he’ll have to go out and see the world.” Shi Yunfeng looked up at Bai Ye, his old face very serious.

Having been to the outside world, Shi Yunfeng was unlike the villagers. He knew the dangers of the outside world and the hardships and bitterness of a mountain village child venturing out.

Rather than going out on his own later, it's better to go with someone he knows; that way, he'll feel more at ease.

"In his original state, he was known as the first generation in the Upper Realm, a celestial seedling that all major forces were vying for. But now, he is like a withered tree that has been reborn. He has survived the tribulation of death and has been reborn. His potential will only be stronger."

Whether it's a small village in the lower realm or a celestial land in the upper realm, nothing can stop his rise; it's just a matter of time.

But sometimes, taking things one step at a time is the most precious thing. If I take him away, he will indeed have a better environment, but at the same time, he will lose his future.

The night was calm. Strictly speaking, none of the promising talents from the Eight Regions were suitable for the Upper Realm. Once they emerged, they would only face suppression and death.

Besides, the lower realm is the real treasure land, and isn't Liu Shen better than those cult leaders?

"The Upper Realm?" Shi Yunfeng was taken aback. "What kind of place is the Upper Realm? Other realms?"

Bai Ye shook his head and explained, "This world is very large. The lower realm has eight domains, and the Desolate Domain is only one of them. The total area of ​​all eight lower domains combined is still less than the area of ​​a single state in the upper realm."

The Upper Realm is known as the Three Thousand Provinces. Beyond the Three Thousand Provinces are the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. Beyond the Nine Heavens are the Immortal Realm, the Otherworld, the Burial Grounds, and so on...

And then there's more outside... In short, this world is vast." Bai Ye didn't say anything more, his gaze turning to the village entrance, where the only glistening willow branch, which had been swaying, paused slightly upon hearing the words.

"Wait a minute... let me digest this..." Shi Yunfeng looked dizzy. "The Shi Kingdom alone has trillions of people, and that's just one country... There are eight more domains like this... and even those eight combined don't compare to one state... There are three thousand states like this... and it seems there are many more upper realms like this..."

Gradually, Shi Yunfeng became bewildered, truly bewildered. It was as if he were listening to gibberish. Not only did a single sentence fail to open the door to a new world for him, but it also made him question the meaning of life, and his entire worldview was completely shattered.

“Therefore, there are many things he will face when he goes to the Upper Realm. It is not suitable for him at this stage. I believe that with his potential, he will step onto the grand stage of the Upper Realm in the future.” Bai Ye picked up his wine glass and took a sip.

"What else is outside...?"

Suddenly, a hazy voice came out, making Shi Yunfeng shudder.

“There’s a sea,” Bai Ye answered, but it was also strange, as this was the first time Liu Shen had spoken to him.

He would have been excited when he first transmigrated, but now he's used to it.

"What lies beyond the Boundary Sea..."

white night:"……"

Good heavens, even the Boundary Sea has appeared, which made him unconsciously tug at the sleeve on his right hand.
