Beastmaster

Half a month later, cold currents blew from the west of Kurumu Village.

"What's going on? Why is it suddenly cold?"

"Yes, yes, it's not the winter season yet."

The villagers of Kurumu Village were discussing the matter one after another.

A few minutes later, two flying war beasts flew in the sky from the west, one black and white, and the other white and blue.

Originally, according to the speed of the Ice Soul Phoenix, it would take about three days to arrive, but Longying did not have the World Ring, so she could not put away the Goshawk, so she flew at the speed of the Goshawk.

The Ice Soul Phoenix complained about the Goshawk a lot along the way.

The goshawk has gotten used to it. It can't fly fast to begin with, and if you keep nagging me, I can only fly at this speed. So I just ignore it and let it talk.

The villagers don't know the Ice Soul Phoenix, but they know the Goshawk.

"Hey! Those kids are back! Go call Fang Tiankuo over!"

An old lady clapped her hands and stamped her feet, and hurriedly urged the young people in the village to call for help.

A young man in his twenties turned around and ran towards Fang Tiankuo's residence upon hearing this.

After a month of reconstruction, the Kurumu Village has taken shape. At least the houses have been built and are habitable.

As they approached, two giant birds slowly landed, and several people quickly jumped off the war beasts.

"Hehe, uncles and aunts! We are back!"

Longying rushed towards everyone enthusiastically and greeted the villagers.

Zhan Yongyi and Jing Cangming also walked forward, "We're back~ Hey? Where's Tian Kuo?"

Jing Cangming looked around but did not see Fang Tiankuo.

Suddenly a voice came, "I'm here!"

Fang Tiankuo was seen running towards everyone from a distance, waving his hands, his face full of excitement.

After seeing this, a few people also ran towards Fang Tiankuo.

"Hahahaha, you guys are finally back. I missed you so much!"

"Haha, we missed you too, so we came back right away."

"Hey, this is Yongyi's war beast, right? So majestic!"

Fang Tiankuo looked at Zhan Yongyi pointing at the Ice Soul Phoenix excitedly.

"Yes, my war beast." His calm words could not hide his pride.

The surrounding villagers were also staring at the Ice Soul Phoenix in amazement. They had lived in the dead woods for generations and had never seen such a war beast. They all looked at the Ice Soul Phoenix and discussed it.

A few children were so scared that they hid behind the adults, while a few brave ones surrounded the Ice Soul Phoenix.

"Okay, let's go back to the village and talk. Don't stand here."

Fang Tiankuo quickly called everyone to walk towards the village together, and the villagers dispersed and went about their own business.

Along the way, Jing Cangming and his companions were also quite shocked. Fang Tiankuo had directed the reconstruction completely according to the layout of Huangjiang Village.

The few people felt as if they were back in Huangjiang Village, and for a moment everyone felt a little homesick.

"Cang Ming, when are we going back to the village?"

Several of them expressed their longing for their parents. Although a month is not a long time, the three of them had never been away from home for such a long time since they were born. What's more, they were only ten years old.

On the other hand, Longying is much better.

"As soon as possible. I think the villagers have almost recovered. I'll ask everyone to gather at the altar later."

Jing Cangming looked at Fang Tiankuo and patted him on the shoulder.

"Okay, I'll go gather everyone right away." Fang Tiankuo said and immediately went to gather everyone. He really missed home.

"Yongyi, you should put the phoenix away first. I didn't feel it on the Ice Continent, but now I feel that the temperature has dropped a lot where it is."

Jing Cangming rubbed his arms and looked at Zhan Yongyi.

Zhan Yongyi turned his head and stretched out his left hand, "Come back, Phoenix."

The Ice Soul Phoenix cried out, turned into a ray of light, and flew into the World Ring.

The goshawk looked at the Ice Soul Phoenix that was put into the world ring, jumping around proudly, with a proud look on its face.

Then a few people went straight to the altar, while Goshawk went to stroll in the village by himself.

Soon, all the people of Kurumu Village gathered under the altar, and four young figures stood on the altar.

Jing Cangming took a step forward with his hands behind his back, like a little adult.

"Dear uncles and aunts, grandpas and aunties, our journey to the west to the Glacier Continent took a month. During this month, Tian Kuo was taken care of by you all. Thank you all!"

After saying that, Jing Cangming bowed deeply to everyone, and Zhan Yongyi, Fang Tiankuo and Long Ying also bowed.

“Hey! Don’t say that. If it weren’t for Tian Kuo, it would be impossible for us to rebuild the village like this within a month with our limited manpower. So it’s better to say that Tian Kuo is taking care of us rather than us taking care of him!”

"Yes! Yes! The best we can do is provide three meals a day, but Tian Kuo helps us build a house and protects us."

"Yes! If it weren't for Fang Tiankuo, I would have lost my life." An uncle shouted excitedly below.

Hearing this, Jing Cangming couldn't help but look at Fang Tiankuo, "What's going on?"

Fang Tiankuo scratched his head and said with a smile, "During the reconstruction, a frame fixing column was not tied tightly and collapsed. The uncle was under the frame at the time, so I quickly protected him."

"So that's what's happening." Jing Cangming patted Fang Tiankuo on the shoulder.

He turned his head and continued to look at the villagers, "Everyone has almost recovered. Go back and pack your luggage tonight. We will take everyone to Huangjiang Village tomorrow."

Although the villagers all knew that the children would take everyone away from the village after they returned, when that day really came, they still found it a little hard to accept.

Jing Cangming saw what the villagers were thinking, and then said, "Don't worry, everyone. I promised you before we left that sooner or later I would let you come back!"

After hearing what Jing Cangming said, everyone felt relieved.

"Then children, there are nearly 200 of us here, how are you going to lead us?"

An old man looked at the children worriedly.

"Grandpa, don't worry about this. We can find a way."

"Okay! Then we'll listen to you! We'll wait for you here tomorrow morning!"

This old man seemed to be the most prestigious person in the village except for the village chief, and he made the decision immediately.

Then the villagers dispersed and packed their luggage.

"Cang Ming, how are you going to lead everyone away? This is not a small number."

Zhan Yongyi looked at Jing Cangming seriously.

"Hehe, I have my own way." Jing Cangming grinned evilly.

"But we seem to have forgotten one thing."

"Huh? What's the matter?" Fang Tiankuo looked at Jing Cangming in confusion.

"Our mission this time has not been completed yet."

After hearing this, several people looked at Jing Cangming in confusion.

"You forgot, we came out not only to find a war beast for Yongyi, we haven't found one for Tiankuo yet."

Jing Cangming looked at everyone helplessly.

"Oh my god, I don't have a battle beast yet. So we should leave tomorrow. It's too late today, right?"

"Yeah, it's only half a day."

Several people looked at Jing Cangming anxiously.

"So, now follow my command. Longying and Yongyi will collect all the wood in the village, and Tiankuo and I will go find the war beasts."

Jing Cangming watched as several people were assigning tasks.

"What are you collecting wood for?"

Longying was still asking the reason, but Zhan Yongyi had already gone to collect them.

"Hey! Wait for me for a moment," Longying didn't ask any more questions and chased after Zhan Yongyi.

"Cang Ming, I'm also curious why you need so much wood?"

"You'll know in a moment. Come on, I'll take you to find the war beast first."

As Jing Cangming spoke, he pulled Fang Tiankuo out of the village and headed deep into the forest.

Where there are trees, there is soil, and where there is soil, there must be rock and soil-type war beasts. The two walked and looked.

"Tian Kuo, what kind of war beast do you want to find?"

"I really haven't thought about it. As long as they are willing to make a contract with me, any war beast will do, hehe!"

Fang Tiankuo still scratched his head and looked at Jing Cangming with a silly smile. He was very excited at the moment. After all, he would soon have a war beast of his own.

"The Earth Element focuses on defense, so let's find someone with thick skin."

"Hey! Okay!"

The two of them walked and chatted, and along the way Jing Cangming told Fang Tiankuo about the various experiences and stories of his journey to the west.

"Ah? It was so easy to contract the big bird? And get a world ring? Damn...what the hell are you two doing?"

Jing Cangming raised his hand and punched Fang Tiankuo, "You are the one with the life of a dog!"

The two looked at each other and laughed.

Suddenly, there was a tremor in the forest, accompanied by the roar of the war beast.

"How is this going?"

Fang Tiankuo turned his head to look at Jing Cangming. The two looked at each other and urged the rock wall together.

A thick earth wall rose from under their feet, lifting them high into the sky, looking far ahead.

"Uncle! What's going on?"

Jing Cangming looked at everything that was happening in front of him. Countless war beasts were running from the west to the east, as if they were fleeing from a famine.

The voice of Uncle Lielangshi, the chess god, rang out, "It should be that powerful war beasts have appeared in the west. I can feel the emotion flowing out of the hearts of these war beasts is fear!"

"Uncle, can you feel what type of war beast it is?"

"I can't feel it. My current form perception ability is too low. If it were me when I was alive, I would definitely be able to sense it."

"Okay, let's go take a look. If something goes wrong, I'll let Xiao Yi take us away."

"Be careful, and try not to let Xiao Yi out, otherwise the forest will be destroyed."

"understood."

After saying this, the voice of Uncle Lielangshi, the chess god, disappeared.

"Tian Kuo, let's go over and take a look."

"Okay, but how do we get there?"

"Fly over, I'll take you with me."

"Ah? Fly over? We don't have flying war beasts and we can't fly."

Jing Cangming looked back at Fang Tiankuo and said with a smile, "Have you forgotten? I have the attribute of sky. I can simply control the airflow to make myself float."

Fang Tiankuo suddenly realized and slapped his forehead, "Hey, why did I forget that the sky attribute can control the airflow and air pressure."

Jing Cangming crouched on the rock wall with his palms facing downward.

"Tian Kuo, lie on my back!"

Upon hearing this, Fang Tiankuo quickly climbed onto Jing Cangming's back, and the two of them floated up.

Fang Tiankuo looked down excitedly, "Hahaha, Cangming, I've always flown on a goshawk, but this is the first time I'm flying on you."

Jing Cangming said unhappily, "Don't move! This is my first time flying with the sky system, and it's also my first time using the sky system to carry someone flying! Shut up if you don't want to fall."

Fang Tiankuo shut his mouth after hearing that.

Jing Cangming used his hands to stimulate the air currents in the air, circling under his feet to make himself fly. The speed was not fast, but relatively stable.

In this way, the two of them floated towards the west at a speed of five meters per second.

Soon the two saw the source of the beasts' escape. It was a rocky area with a huge pit with a diameter of 20 meters in the center. In the pit lay a ground dragon about five meters long, with rocks covered all over its body like armor.
