Chapter 42 The Fire Demon Part 3

Back in the village, the hunters waited for Guozhao Zhiqiang, but he has not returned since they parted ways two hours ago. Suddenly, there was a loud noise from the mountain.

Lim Junjie stood up, "Zhiqiang."

Guozhao Shaquan stood up, "We don't have to wait anymore. Senior brother might have already encountered the demon, let's head up the mountain."

The hunters ran up the mountain. Lim Junjie led the way. He sniffed and followed Guozhao Zhiqiang's scent and walked towards the dark cave. They heard a woman scream in pain.

Zheng Yaozu, "Shaquan, you stay outside with the other juniors."

The four brothers and Lim Junjie ran inside. When they came to the end of the cave, they didn't expect that the terrifying fire demons were just two ordinary people.

Zheng Yaozu asked in confusion, "What's going on?"

Guozhao Zhiqiang, "Bolin, go get Shaquan?"

Guozhao Bolin, "What? Senior brother, we are here to catch the fire demon, aren't we?"

Guozhao Zhiqiang said firmly, "Now."

Guozhao Bolin ran towards the entrance of the cave. After a while, Guozhao Shaquan appeared with Guozhao Bolin.

Guozhao Shaquan, "What's going on?"

Guozhao Zhiqiang looked at Gen and Wan, "They said she was going to have a baby, go and see if it's true."

Guozhao Shaquan knelt beside Wan. He touched Wan's stomach, it was hard. Wan's contractions seemed to get more intense. He looked at the four older brothers standing there, looking at him and Wan. He shook his head and said, "Why are you guy still standing here, everyone must know how to leave some privacy for the lady, don't look this way, face the entrance."

Hearing that the younger brother was protecting the patient's privacy, the four brothers walked towards the wall, facing the entrance.

Guozhao Shaquan took Wan's pants off and said calmly, "Older sister, I'm going to examine your bottom and help you deliver the baby. When I ask you to push, you push, okay."

Wan nodded. Guozhao Shaquan looked at Wan's private part and saw that it was bleeding. Guozhao Shaquan threw the talisman paper on the ground, and Shan appeared from the smoke.

Gen watches the teenager take care of his wife. At this moment, the young man didn't care whether he was demon blood or not. In the eyes of this young man, those who suffer are his patients. Only then did Gen realize that no matter how much he hated humans, the young men standing in front of him were exceptions.

Shan, "Shaquan, how can I help?"

Guozhao Shaquan, "Shan, I don't have any hemostatic medicine. You go to second senior brother and ask for painkillers, sutures, and a clean knife. Ask second senior brother to summon senior brother to pick up those items."

Shan, "Okay." Shan disappeared of the smoke.

After a while, the two magic circles in Guozhao Zhiqiang's hands brighten up. He put his hands together and disappeared as the bright light faded.

Wan screamed, "Please help me."

Lim Junjie shouted, "My lady, hang in there in a few moments. In a few moments, you going to see your child. You can do it." He expressed his encouragement to Wan.

Zheng Yaozu shouted, "Yes, he's right. You're going to see your child soon."

Guozhao Bolin also expressed concern, "Shaquan, do something to help her. She is in a lot of pain."

Guozhao Shaquan, "Labor is always painful. You are a man, and you should thank God." He threw another talisman on the ground, and with a flash of white light in the cave, Guozhao Zhiqiang walked out of the cave wall.

Guozhao Zhiqiang handed the bag to Guozhao Shaquan and went back to stand with his brothers. The brothers heard Guozhao Shaquan asked Wan to push several times. Then they finally heard the baby's cry. The older brother looked at each other and sighed happily.

Guozhao Shaquan wrapped the baby and handed it to Gen. He then cleaned Wan and put her pants back on.

Wan looked at Gen and said sadly, "Gave him a name."

Gen said, "Zemin." He turned to the hunters and kowtowed. "Thank you, hunters. I always thought hunters were always after us. I didn't expect you young hunters to help us today."

Guozhao Shaquan looked at Gen and said, "We were not taught that. We were taught to respect all living things."

Guozhao Bolin, "We only hunt those who cause harm to others."

Gen asked, "Please tell me which clan or sector you are from before you kill me."

Guozhao Shaquan, "We are Guozhao Hunters." He pointed to Lim Junjie. "He is the grandson of Mayor Lim from Waterfall City and Wolf Clan leader."

Zheng Tingfeng, "But we still regard him as a Guozhao hunter."

Zheng Yaozu teased, "Soon he will be the son-in-law of Wasteland."

Lim Junjie sneered, "Who?"

Zheng Yaozu said, "You."

Gen, "Thank you hunters." He sighed and looked at Guozhao Zhiqiang. "I'm ready, young hunter."

Guozhao Zhiqiang pulled his sword out of the scabbard. Guozhao Shaquan quickly held onto Guozhao Zhiqiang's right wrist, "Senior brother, please rethink again, baby Zemin has just been born, do you really want another orphan?"

Guozhao Bolin, "Very true. The three of us know very well how an orphan grows up. His name is Zemin…the meaning… it's not enough to let you know that this fire demon has a heart of repentance, and how he views of the human race now?"

Lim Junjie cried and said sadly, "Zhiqiang, you should know that we are always outsiders in the eyes of ordinary people. When I was crying, I just want my mother to wipe away my tears and my father to tell me that everything will be fine. No matter how much Uncle Lim and Aunt Huang love me, there is always a void deep inside that only a mother and father can fill."

Guozhao Bolin said, "Senior brother, do you remember how much we wanted red egg on our birthday? Do you remember that we would pretend to be in the arms of our parents in that old temple when we were cold? I will never forget about that feeling because I do feel warmer even though I know we're just coaxing our hearts."

Guozhao Zhiqiang suddenly remembered that when Guozhao Bolin, Guozhao Zhaohui, and him were running away from Master Ho, they hid in an old temple. Heavy rain prevented them from continuing to walk. Guozhao Zhiqiang held Guozhao Bolin and Guozhao Zhaohui in his arms.

Guozhao Bolin said in a low voice, "I'm cold."

Guozhao Zhiqiang said, "Let's wait until our clothes are dry."

Guozhao Zhaohui said, "Big brother, I'm also cold."

Guozhao Zhiqiang said with a smiled, "Just pretend we are outside in the hot summer sun. The sun is high and hot. Sweat is running down our faces...and..."

Guozhao Zhaohui hugged tightly onto Guozhao Zhiqiang's arm and said, "If only I could be held in my mother's arms or my father's arms this cold feeling will go away."

Guozhao Bolin said, "Warm..." He smiled and chuckled.

Guozhao Zhiqiang said with a smile, "Or... let me see... We are in a small house. Our father just came back from hunting, and our mother was cooking soup for us by the fire. She poured the soup. Give us a bowl of hot soup. We were sitting and drinking mother's soup..."

Guozhao Bolin chuckled, "Big brother, I feel warm...continue...continue..."

When Guozhao Zhiqiang pointed his swords at Gen's neck, Guozhao Bolin's tender voice echoed in his mind. Guozhao Zhiqiang moved his sword away and pointed the sword at Gen's face. He said, "Swear to me that you will always be my servant and only obey my orders."

Gen kissed Guozhao Zhiqiang's sword, "I swear to the sword spirit that I will only be loyal to the master's orders."

Gen's finger touched Guozhao Zhiqiang's sword and blood dripped onto the sword. Wan did the same. When Wan stretched Zemin's little finger to Guozhao Zhiqiang's sword, Guozhao Zhiqiang drew the sword and retracted the sword into the scabbard on his back.

Gen, "Master this is..."

Guozhao Zhiqiang, "Not him. He is innocent. He will grow up in Cloud City, and Teacher Li will teach him the principles of Guozhao."

Wan said happily, "Thank you master."

Guozhao Zhiqiang, "You two understand, what will happen if you betray me?"

Gen and Wan nodded.

Lim Junjie was at a loss, "What will happen?"

Zheng Tingfeng frowned, "You are so stupid, they swear to the original spirit inside the sword, if they betray the original spirit, those spirits killed by the sword will hunt them down."

Guozhao Zhiqiang, "Get up, I don't like people bowing their heads and kneeling in front of me."

Gen, "Yes, zhu ren."

Guozhao Zhiqiang, "Don't call me that."

Wan looked at Guozhao Zhiqiang and said, "But you are our zhu ren, otherwise what would you call you?"

Guozhao Zhiqiang said, "I don't like being the master of anyone."

Gen said, "Zhu ren, just accept it. There is no more suitable term than this."

Guozhao Bolin, "Brother, please accept it. They seem to be very sincere."

Guozhao Zhiqiang was about to open his mouth, but Zheng Yaozu interrupted him, "Senior brother, accept it, or do you want them to call you savior."

Guozhao Zhiqiang sighed, "Okay."

Gen and Wan, "Thank you zhu ren."

Guozhao Bolin, "Let's go home. The Mid-Autumn Festival will be in two weeks."

Lim Junjie, "Cool. I've never attended one before."

Guozhao Zhiqiang looked at his brothers and said, "Let's go back to Cloud City."
