The previous meals previous were almost negligible compared to the Desolate beast meat, every bite gave his entire body a type of ecstasy he never felt before. With each bite and swallow, he felt a sudden burst of energy released from his insides to the rest of his body. The sensation was so wonderful, it was like an all-time high throughout his body.
When he finished 150kg of the desolate beast meat, he felt full, he wasn't sure how long it has been since he felt like this.
He washed everything down with another 5 liters of enhanced beast core water. Everything got digested immediately, this has never happened before with the previous meals, no matter how much he ate.
Previously when he ate, His body felt like a bottomless pit, he never knew where the food was going to. His body completely digested everything. There weren't any waste products, except for what he felt now.
His body felt extremely good, each muscles fiber felt like they were growing, they were twitching all over his body. He felt sharp pains all, his muscles fibers constantly tore themselves apart and regenerated at the same time. It wasn't just the increase in fibers but also the strength of each fiber increase by a fold. It took an hour before his body stopped spasming and for the pain to subsided.
Both Dr.Ju and Su Chen had watched on quietly, they were completely stunned at what was happening . they could even see the boy had grown a full size in body mass and muscle like it was a changing of clothes.
They both were covered in sweat as they realized he went from a pitiful strength in the 1st Vein refinement realm to the strength that was equivalent to a peak 3rd layer Vien refinement realm. But they knew he could not go any further than that since his meridians were crippled.
His body strength right now could easily crush anybody under the 4th level as snapping twigs. They both wanted to burst into tears as they realized the future struggles would be in the future to provide this glutton with food.
"Uhm…. you think we would be able to… satisfy his meals.. ?" … Su Chen gulped a mouthful of saliva just thinking about the strenuous work involved feeding this kid...
Just thinking what he would have to explain to the village when they see such a glutton suddenly appearing, but due to the talk he had with Dr.Ju earlier, he sighed… life is so hard right now.
But before he could be lost in his thoughts he suddenly heard a burst of laughter and it seemed even tearful
"Haha, Su Chen!! I think we found our lucky star! I couldn't believe it worked!" Dr.Ju burst into hearty laughter again not caring at all about his image.
Jihan looked at both the two old men, he noticed Su Chen had a complicated expression but Dr.Ju was sincerely laughing and crying at the same time.
It seemed for the first time the despair that Jihan had felt in the air .. that he was so familiar with vaporizing like smoke within the Old Doctors eyes and replaced with tearful of happiness.
He did not know what they meant but it made him feel grateful for what they have done. He knew soon they would explain to him what had happened. Jihan felt like he was completed healed, after that meal as he climbed out of the bed.
Dr.Ju came Closer to him with a smile on his old face, looked at him.
" You must be wondering what is happening to you right now . in order for us to save you.. from dying .. we needed to donate to u blood. But because we do not know which village u from or where ur relatives are . they cannot donate to you any blood. So we had to use our blood, mine and my sons. But in order to do that we had to first … changed your body to be able to adapt and absorb any blood type…" Dr. Ju said.
"Yeah, we had to completely modify your body, previously when u were brought back we noticed that your meridians for the 4 Vein refinement and onwards were completely crippled. Not even the ancient books and texts we had to could've helped, but… there is one book that specifically was suited to you. It was so well tailored we thought it was a miracle. The instructions where completely clear and only the Su clan could read the text since it is part of our ancient lineage. Only with the blood of the Su Clan flowing in their bodies could read and understand the book. Sigh… we can discuss this again in the future if you are willing to listen and understand your situation properly." Dr.Ju finished.
Su Chen was nodding his head in agreement but noticed Dr.ju glancing at him, realizing that the commotion they just cause probably roused the entire village since the entire storage was drained of food right now.
He immediately figured what it meant and disappeared to sort out the problems. He figured if he wasn't transparent enough problems would arise in the future if the kid stayed in the village.
Since the authority of the village Chief was paramount based on strength and almost everyone knew that the 'Mysterious' Doctor Ju. May seem gentle and outspoke on the outside but deep down everyone feared him.
He had completely knocked out one of the stronger hunters in the village when he went on a rampage when one of the neighboring villages almost killed his son. Because it would've resulted in a war between villages, Chief couldn't hold the guy back and Dr.Ju had to step in.
From that day onwards no one doubted him again and everyone would put up a smiling face and bow their head when they saw him.
The weak respected the strong that how it was have been. there is no law with absolute strength, the law does not bind someone that can crush the whole village single-handedly.
When the food started disappearing into Dr.Ju house, everyone started gulping saliva and figured it out. No one wanted to be beaten black and blue just for being stupid enough to make noise outside his house.
But they knew soon they would get an explanation from the Chief since he said he would explain after he took almost all the villages food storages.
People wanted to voice their opinions but when they notice earlier Chief had sent all three hunting squads out at the same time. the Situation should've been dire.
Although the women in the village were more straightforward and aggressive compared to the men. They weren't stupid, they knew when to draw the line and shut up.
They saw Chief came out of the house, and his face was pale compared to what they usually saw him like. He even seemed to have aged more than 20 years. The villages had worried faces as they glanced at the omnipotent village chief.
They heard the village chief sigh, they could see he had even accumulated grey hair. There weren't many but they were visible on his scalp and beard.
" Everyone, should not panic too much about the food shortage currently, we will have food for the short run but not long run. Our rations are all used up so we will have to put in extra effort for a few weeks to replenish the supply. " Su Chen said.
Glancing at the nearly 100 inhabitants of the village. He couldn't believe a Young boy of 10-12 years could consume the food of roughly 100 people that would last 3 months within a few hours.
Su Chen contemplated for a bit before his expression became completely serious. He looked the crowd, glancing at everyone making sure no outsiders were present and took a huge breath before speaking again.
" The boy that saved my daughter, he is not a native to the surrounding villages. He… " Su Chen paused for a bit and realized everyone was taking a deep breath in.
" What I am about to say cannot be divulged outside the village, the death penalty hadn't been used for more than 200 years in our village but today I am lifting it and saying anyone who is found to have spread the contents of today's meeting will be killed, not just you but your family members as well!" Su Chen said, he suddenly released his aura… and his body expanded by a full size, his aura shot up from the peak vein refinement 10 layer .. and shot through to the Body refinement realm 4 then suddenly to the 10 stage. Everyone was terrified!
They believed he was always in the peak of the ven refinement realm and Dr.Ju to be at Body refinement realm. But they were mistaken… it wasn't Dr. Ju but him.
This level of strength was weaker than an ant during ancient times, it was said that the cultivators passed the Nirava realm. They would fly through the sky break the atmosphere and travel the starry skies.
" I don't want to hurt any of you, my fellow clansmen, where have been a clan for more than 10s of thousands of years. Protecting the land from endless forest and making sure the secrets from the ancient times do not get spread again and further the collapse of the world. We are the guardian clan. But just as everyone knows, our planet cannot hold us anymore it is Dying! " Su Chen said looking at the crowd.
He knew he didn't even need to repeat this. Everyone knew this. Due to the hunting expedition they had to expand more and more for resources and what the hunters saw, they would obviously replay to everyone else. They knew that the Desolate forest and animal life was decaying.
Their Clan was the most ancient clans on the planet, they had lived during the time when the planet thrived and was one of the most fortunate clans to survive the calamity in ancient times. They did not know how they survive the calamities of all the generations but they did. That's why each one was loyal to the village.
No one ever married outside the clan before, no women or man would except a person from outside the village, it was more like a bloodline attraction they felt. If they didn't feel fated, they would either choose to destroy you or ignore you.
" The boy we found… is.."
He glanced at everyone again, he knew he had to come up with something but he didn't know what.
after the discussion with his father, they agreed on telling everyone. Best to make things transparent then lie to their own people. It would cause widespread panic but it would only help them in the end.
"He is a Blood demon.."
"what??!!!'
Everyone seemed to scream and panicked at the same time. Some of the people seemed to have lost their souls and fainted on the spot.
" This ….. this! "
Someone seemed to want to voice their opinion but before he could say anything Su Chen glared at him, he released his killing intent and the guy immediately shut up. covered in cold sweat.
Who did not know what are blood demons where?, most clans might not know but because they were an ancient clan they knew exactly what that was. The beings that brought about the destruction of the Planet were the blood demons.
They became crazed and slaughtered everyone and everything. consuming the flesh and absorb the victim's cultivation bases.
This group of people got their hands on an even more ancient cultivation inheritance, these inheritances weren't complete and became crazed for that. They went bezerk when the spirititual enegery wasn't enough and started slaughtering their fellows, even consuming them..
And now… they hear that there was a being like that in the village, who wouldn't be shocked and scared out of their witts just hearing that??!!
