Chapter 198: The Earth Breaking Clan

Chapter 198: The Earth Breaking Clan

The sudden appearance of ropes caught Gu Yu and Sun Qi completely by surprise.

The dog bared his fangs at Lie Xiaolang, who still wore a silly grin, as he thrashed his claws around trying to break free from the net.

However, the net was made from a very tough and sturdy material, even the dog’s razor-sharp claws could not tear it apart.

“Father, I caught something!” Lie Xiaolang started yelling.

The two players were terrified.

The things that characters could do in the game were unlimited. Although they had not been to Gillfish Island before, they still knew about how that place was a nightmare for many players. At this very moment, they expected inexplicable things to happen to them.

They struggled hard but could not escape because the net was too strong.

In a flash, two silhouettes clad in yellow armor appeared and quickly approached them.

“Father, I caught an Earth Essence!” Lie Xiaolang inhaled sharply to suck up his dripping snot and shrieked again.

The two silhouettes stopped beside him and looked at the two of them that were suspended in mid-air inside the net. Then, one of them slapped the back of Lie Xiaolang’s head.

“Does this look like an Earth Essence to you? How many times have you caused trouble for me! You’re getting on my nerves again!” When he was about to take a step toward his son, he was stopped by a woman with a darker complexion.

“What? Are you stopping me from punishing him again?” Lie Dalang questioned angrily.

“No! We will punish him together!” the woman stepped forward to pick Lie Xiaolang up and beat him fervently. After she was done, she passed him on to Lie Dalang for another round of punishment.

Both Gu Yu and Sun Qi were speechless at the sight.

The dog was perplexed as he witnessed such a fierce domestic violence scene. “Boss, I’m scared!” he uttered timidly.

“I have a feeling that this child’s so dumb because he literally got his senses beaten out of him!” Gu Yu uttered with his heart thumping.

The two finally stopped after another five or six rounds. However, instead of being on death’s door, Lie Xiaolang’s body was only bruised and swollen. His howls of pain echoed clear and loud, but he did not look severely injured at all.

At that moment, the gaze of Lie Xiaolang’s parents fell upon the two players.

“I’m sorry, foreigners!” Lie Dalang apologized. He then stretched out his hand to grab the net. It immediately relaxed and they fell to the ground with a thud.

“My apologies, Xiaolang is still immature, therefore he has some growing up to do. Hope you don’t mind!” Lie Dalang scratched his head remorsefully as he uttered.

Assuming he survives till he turns into a grown-up! Gu Yu and the dog knew better than to say this out loud.

Gu Yu asked curiously as he eyed the net on the ground, “It’s alright… by the way, what were you catching?”

“We’re trying to catch Earth Essence!” from his pocket, Lie Dalang fished out a round ball the size of a watermelon as he explained.

The round ball was highly peculiar, it had a mouth, ears, and eyes that blinked. This thing was a living creature!

[Earth Essence (Level 9 spiritual material)]:

Object Detail: Beiqi Barren Grassland’s special spiritual material. Ranked between half creature, half spirit. It will mature into a King Level Herb!

A treasure! Gu Yu and Sun Qi’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

The dog raised his paw to ask curiously, “What does it do?”

Lie Dalang pointed at his son, who was still wailing, “It can cure poisons. Do you know why my kid is so mentally challenged?”

“No!” they both shook their hands in response.

“That’s because he ate an Earth Breaking Stone and was severely poisoned. So, he’s rather confused and oblivious about the things around him now!”

Lie Dalang looked at Lie Xiaolang impatiently and found that he was still crying. He threw the Earth Essence at him and his son was knocked to the ground from the impact!

After hearing the term Earth Breaking Stones, the two players were filled with excitement. It was, after all, the purpose to why they made this trip.

“Right, why are you here? Don’t you know that this is Beiqi’s forbidden area?” Lie Dalang quizzed casually.

Gu Yu and Sun Qi became embarrassed. They were players, after all, so forbidden areas did not apply to them. However, they could not disclose that, so they instead responded, “We had no idea that this place was a forbidden area. Why is this place a forbidden area?”

Lie Dalang surprisingly accepted the excuse and clarified, “So you really have no idea! Take my advice and leave now, this was declared a forbidden area by the King of Beiqi… no foreigners are allowed to enter.”

The dog couldn’t help but ask, “What will happen if we enter the forbidden area again?”

Lie Dalang shook his head, “Even I don’t know, but probably a death sentence by the King of Beiqi!”

Something clicked in Gu Yu’s mind, thus he asked, “What is the name of your king?”

“Who else? Lord North Sea!” Lie Dalang answered almost immediately.

Gu Yu and the dog stared at each other for a moment and thought of the dead Beiqi King’s decree.

The dog questioned testily, “Brother, do you know that North Sea was buried a long time ago?”

After he finished his statement, Gu Yu’s gut felt uneasy but it was already too late. He could only watch Lie Dalang move as quickly as lightning to lift the dog and start to pummel him furiously.

“Ow, ow, ow!” Sun Qi struggled but Lie Dalang’s strength was not something he could overcome. He could only stare at Gu Yu in despair.

Gu Yu saw this and took a step back.

After he had beaten the dog within an inch of his life, Lie Dalang tossed him to the ground, “Little creature, let me warn you, you better watch your tongue. If you ever disrespect the Lord King of Beiqi, I will end your life!”

He heard this and shivered on the ground, weeping soundlessly.

What is this? Why would I have to be punished for telling the truth?

Then, Lie Dalang directed his gaze toward Gu Yu.

Gu Yu immediately voiced out, “He’s still alive, the Land of Beiqi is prosperous under his rule!”

Lie Dalang nodded and said, “That’s alright since you don’t know the rules, I won’t be offended again, now get lost!”

Gu Yu was not willing to give up after he journeyed this far, so he asked, “I heard that you have Earth Breaking Stones. I’m willing to exchange any material for them. Do you agree to exchange it with me?”

Lie Dalang was stunned but soon recovered his senses to reply, “What spiritual material can you give me in return?”

Gu Yu found the situation hopeful, hence he instantly took out a whole bunch of spiritual material from his personal space, “Really anything you want! What do you want?”

After he examined the things Gu Yu took out, Lie Dalang looked toward his wife as she cradled their unconscious son.

“I don’t know either, let’s ask the clan leader,” the woman shook her head as she answered.

“Earth Breaking Stones may not be anything precious to me, but we have no right to exchange them, I can bring you to the clan leader instead to see what he says!” Lie Dalang turned toward Gu Yu and explained.

Gu Yu smiled and nodded, he picked up the dog from the ground and tagged along behind Lie Dalang and his family.

Gu Yu and Sun Qi finally came to the land of the Earth Breaking Clan after a half an hour walk with Lie Dalang and his family.

The clan’s compound was huge and vast. Aside from buildings made of mud, there were also tall pagodas everywhere. The two foreigners attracted a lot of attention as they passed by.

They were led to one of the pagodas. Lie Dalang paused in front of it and kneeled to the ground with one knee to proclaim, “Clan Leader, these foreigners wish to have an audience with you. They wish to exchange spiritual materials for our Earth Breaking Stones.”

Not long after, a rustling sound emitted from the pagoda and the door was flung open. A large imposing giant strode out.

Gu Yu lifted his gaze to take in the towering figure…

[Lie Shan (Ghost Emperor Middle Phase)]:

Character Details: Leader of the ancient Earth Breaking Clan of Beiqi. Fought in the war for the title of the first King of Beiqi where he was the strongest contender for the throne. After his defeat, he swore loyalty to North Sea and vowed to never betray him!

Character Status: Normal.

When Lie Shan appeared, Lie Dalang bowed deeply to show his respect toward the leader.

Lie Shan looked down upon Gu Yu and asked, “You want Earth Breaking Stones?”

“Yes, I have many spiritual materials, do you…”

Lie Shan interrupted Gu Yu before he could finish and pointed at the dog, “I don’t want your spiritual materials, I can give you plenty of Earth Breaking Stones, but only in exchange for your pet, the White Phantom!”

Upon hearing this, Sun Qi was jolted into action, causing him to grab Gu Yu’s arm immediately.

Gu Yu looked at the dog. He really wanted to consider this trade but he felt that he had to decline it.

“Clan Leader Lie Shan, this is my friend… I’m afraid I can’t give him to you, but I can give you plenty of spiritual materials instead!”

“I won’t accept anything other than King Level spiritual materials, anything else is of no use to me. Why don’t you give it more thought?”

“No! I don’t want to be exchanged! I’m not an object!” the dog protested stubbornly as he defiantly met Lie Shan’s eyes. However, at the same time, he started to cling tighter onto Gu Yu’s arm.

“The White Phantom speaks!” Lie Shan’s eyes bulged out as if he had just seen a ghost.
