Chapter 917: The Heavenly Witch River of the Heavenly Witch Realm

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Although the few panic-stricken people who ran to the gate of the stone city were killed, the soldiers who were rushing in were not killed.

Di Jiu, Cao Xi, and everyone being held captive were chased to a huge square. Di Jiu realized that the victorious party hadn’t occupied all the critical places immediately. Instead, they had surrounded the captives, which gave Di Jiu the feeling that the captives were the most precious element.

However, Di Jiu didn’t care at the moment and was actually glad because his consciousness had come into contact with the language law there. As long as he came into contact with the language law, the language would be the same everywhere. If he could use his Spiritual Force and Divine Essence there, once he landed in this place, he could know the language law. He did not need to spend so much time.

The tall defeated soldiers were also driven to the captive circle, where Di Jiu was.

A fat man in an unknown suit of armor took a stride to the top of the square and scanned everyone happily. This was his loot.

“You guys are very lucky, as the Great Wing Tribe has never killed any captives.” After the fatty scanned them, he spoke with satisfaction.

Di Jiu could sense that many people around him were relieved. It seemed that, except for the Great Wing Tribe, the other tribes loved killing captives.

Fatty changed the topic. “However, the Great Wing Tribe doesn’t take in any useless people. When you guys arrive at the Great Wing Tribe, you will construct the Heavenly Witch River. The few of you who make the highest contribution will join the Great Wing Tribe and become part of us...”

Then, the fatty talked about the rewards for building the Heavenly Witch River, which Di Jiu didn’t care about. However, he had obtained some foundational things. At least, he knew that there was a Heavenly Witch River in this place. All the tribes seemed to be constructing this Heavenly Witch River. At the same time, Di Jiu knew that the war between the tribes was most likely for the sake of capturing people to construct the Heavenly Witch River.

What he couldn’t figure out was something else. Since everyone had to construct the Heavenly Witch River, they could just do it together. Why was there a need for war?

The Great Wing Tribe was very direct. After the fatty finished talking, they immediately drove all the captives out of the stone city.

Nobody complained along the way, and everyone was very cautious. Di Jiu very soon figured out why these captives were so cautious. As long as they proceeded according to the rules, there wouldn’t be any problems. If anyone dared to deviate from the stipulated route, they would immediately be shot to death.

“Di Jiu, I think this seems to be a very ancient planet. I’m at least sure that this planet is not in the Five-Element Universe. It’s strange that these people defeat each other but abandon the other party’s territory. Why do they want to detain all these captives?” Cao Xi, who was walking ahead of Di Jiu, asked in a low voice.

Di Jiu replied with certainty, “They are naturally not from the Five-Element Universe. I still haven’t figured out what kind of place this is. These people have captured us because they need us to construct the Heavenly Witch River. Oh, that’s right. The fatty who spoke just now is the chief of the Great Wing Tribe...”

“The Heavenly Witch River...” Cao Xi mumbled these words repeatedly. Suddenly, she looked at Di Jiu and her eyes lit up.

Di Jiu looked at Cao Xi and said, “Cao Xi, why are you looking at me like that?”

Cao Xi had addressed Di Jiu by saying his name, so he naturally wouldn’t be polite.

Cao Xi’s voice trembled. “Di Jiu, if this place is where I believe it to be, perhaps you could really fight Du Bu...”

Di Jiu frowned. He thought that even if this place was where Cao Xi believed it was, it still wasn’t related to him dealing with Du Bu.

When he thought of Du Bu, his mood became bad again. Du Bu’s power had already reached such an extent that Di Jiu couldn’t do anything to him regardless of how hard he tried. He wondered how Du Mo had plotted against Du Bu in the past. Du Mo was also a genius after all.

“Di Jiu, nobody knows Du Bu’s weakness, but I do...”

Before Cao Xi could finish, there was a buzzing sound and a whip suddenly landed, hitting the area between her eyebrows.

Di Jiu was shocked. He was sure that Cao Xi had at least a Sacred Body. Thanks to the Sacred Body, this whip wouldn’t do anything to her even if she lost her cultivation.

Before this whip landed on Cao Xi’s head, Di Jiu hurriedly pounced over and blocked her with his body. At the same time, his intent moved and the strength of his back rapidly weakened.

Slap! Flesh and blood flew around. This whip nearly broke Di Jiu’s back, and his backbone could be seen clearly.

“Huh...” That whip hadn’t hit Cao Xi. Instead, Di Jiu’s bone had been whipped out. She exclaimed in shock and subconsciously looked at the whip.

Di Jiu shouted, “We will definitely work hard to construct the Heavenly Witch River! May the Great Wing Tribe have a long life...”

Some captives around him, who were unaware of what had happened, quickly shouted alongside Di Jiu, “We will definitely work hard to construct the Heavenly Witch River! May the Great Wing Tribe have a long life.”

Upon hearing that, several higher-ranking soldiers came over to check the situation. For a moment, that soldier forgot to continue provoking Di Jiu.

When Cao Xi saw that soldier leave, she looked at Di Jiu apologetically. She then realized that not only could he understand the language here, but he could also speak the same language.

She was very thankful for Di Jiu. If he hadn’t helped her block that attack, she might have exposed her physical strength. Then, the two of them would definitely have been unable to stay among the captives without a problem.

...

The group of captives walked for one day and one night without eating or drinking before they arrived at a gathering place.

This didn’t matter to Di Jiu and Cao Xi, but the others were very exhausted. Fortunately, they had arrived at their destination.

The Great Wing Tribe provided each of them with a big bowl of black paste. Di Jiu didn’t know what this paste was but knew that it was definitely not delicious. The others held up the big black bowl emotionally, and each of them ate it in a very carefree manner.

Di Jiu and Cao Xi distributed their share to the few people beside them, so they immediately gained the favor of the people around them.

If soldiers hadn’t been guarding him, Di Jiu would have asked Cao Xi why she had said that he could now perhaps fight Du Bu. Then, he would ask her where this place was. What was the Heavenly Witch River? Why did they have to construct it?

Perhaps, they had to construct the Heavenly Witch River on the second day. That night, all the captives were driven to a huge basin. As long as they were driven to this basin and made to guard the entrance, nobody would be able to escape this place.

Di Jiu was relieved. So long as no soldiers were guarding the inside of the basin, he could ask Cao Xi what he wanted to know. At the same time, he could imagine that although the Great Wing Tribe hadn’t killed this group of captives, only a few of them would probably survive in the end.

A group of people was squeezed together in this basin at night. They had only drunk a bowl of black paste and they had to construct the Heavenly Witch River the following day. It would be strange if they were able to live for much longer.

When all the captives entered the basin and the guarding soldiers left, Di Jiu found an old man he had given some black paste to and asked, “Senior, may I ask what this place is? What is the Heavenly Witch River?”

The old man looked at Di Jiu in shock before answering after some time, “This is naturally the Great Wing Tribe, but how come you don’t know about the Heavenly Witch River?”

Di Jiu quickly lowered his voice. “My friend and I fled over from somewhere far away. We don’t have a Heavenly Witch River there...”

The old man frowned. After some time, he said, “That is impossible. There are Heavenly Witch Rivers everywhere in the Heavenly Witch Realm. How could you not have a Heavenly Witch River?”

Di Jiu had finally realized what the Heavenly Witch Realm was. However, he didn’t understand. If the entire realm had such a river, what kind of river was this?
