“Quick, tell us, where are you from? Are you Yao Beasts in disguise?”
Unexpectedly, the man called Shen Shang didn't answer at all. Instead, he drew his sword, pointed it at Ye Lin and Tou Tian, and said coldly.
“Shen Shang, what are you doing?”
Seeing this, Wu Ya's expression changed. He grabbed Shen Shang's shoulder and asked.
“Wu Ya, how can two ordinary Human Race members cross the mountains to reach our village? Don't you find it strange?”
“Moreover, some Yao Beasts can transform into human form. Have you forgotten the tragedy from a hundred years ago? Are you just going to bring in two people of unknown origin like this?”
“If the tragedy from a hundred years ago happens again, can you bear the consequences?”
Shen Shang's face showed slight anger as he glared at Wu Ya and rebuked him.
Wu Ya slowly lowered his hand from Shen Shang's shoulder and remained silent.
“Quick, where did you two come from? If you don't explain your origins clearly, our village doesn't welcome you.”
Seeing that the two remained silent, Shen Shang continued to press them.
The commotion here attracted the attention of the surrounding villagers, who gathered around the two and stared at them.
Ye Lin reached out and pinched the tip of the longsword. The next moment, the longsword in Shen Shang's hand let out a mournful cry and then fell to the ground.
This longsword was just a Mortal item. He only needed to use a trace of Sword Dao Rules power to make it lose its combat effectiveness.
Seeing the longsword that had accompanied him for decades fall from his grasp, Shen Shang was full of shock.
Didn't hold it steady? Impossible, he was a Sword God, he would never make such a mistake that even a Mortal wouldn't make.
The only possibility was…
Shen Shang looked at Ye Lin with a grave expression.
“Alright, I won't ask about your origins. What is your purpose in coming to our village?”
Shen Shang slowly retreated and spoke.
Ye Lin was able to make his longsword fall to the ground silently. This extremely simple action alone showed that he was not Ye Lin's opponent.
“Our purpose is simple. We need the stone tablet in your village.”
Ye Lin pointed, precisely at the central stone tablet.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Ye Lin finished speaking, the expressions of the surrounding villagers changed drastically.
“Impossible, the Divine Stone has protected our village for hundreds of years. There's no way we'll let you take it.”
“Exactly, the Divine Stone cannot be given to you. If you want to take it, you'll have to step over us.”
The surrounding villagers were agitated, each one speaking loudly.
Tou Tian looked at Ye Lin.
“We don't have much time left. It's time to go. The longer we stay here, the more dangerous it becomes. Let's take the stone tablet and leave.”
Tou Tian transmitted his voice to Ye Lin.
Their time was precious. They didn't want these Mortals to waste too much time.
After all, his Tou Tian's power was also limited. Once he couldn't hold on and the Sky Gazing Disk stopped operating, then the two of them would very likely die in this Yao Race territory.
Ye Lin nodded upon hearing Tou Tian's voice transmission. Indeed, there was no more time to waste. So, Ye Lin stepped forward and looked at Xiao Bu Dian in front of him.
“What are you going to do? Stop.”
Seeing this, Shen Shang and Wu Ya could no longer hold back and rushed towards Ye Lin.
After all, Xiao Bu Dian was now the hope of their entire village. If anything happened to him, it would be a disaster.
“Kneel.”
Ye Lin didn't care about the two behind him. With just a soft word, the next moment, the two who had been incredibly swift suddenly knelt on the ground, unmoving.
