Chapter 807: Roast Goose
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
While Han Sen was still thinking, he heard a woman laugh . He wasn't sure from which direction it came .
"Have humans come here, as well? Or was that just another spirit?" Han Sen looked around him but failed to see anyone .
The land below was devoid of anyone and anything, creatures included . The fruit they had sought was nearly matured, and most of the creatures and spirits that vied for one were already up on the island waiting for their chance .
"Moment, did you hear a woman laugh?" Han Sen asked, looking at her .
Moment Queen shook her head and said, "What woman's laughter?"
"Did I mishear that, then?" Han Sen wondered, confused . Just as he was ready to forget about it, he heard the laughter once more . It was so clear this time, that he knew he had not misheard it .
"Are you really telling me you didn't hear that?" Han Sen looked at Moment Queen and asked again .
Moment Queen merely frowned and looked around, not seeing anything out of place .
"Little Silver, did you hear that?" Han Sen asked the silver fox, who was resting on his shoulder . It looked at Han Sen with a face that suggested it had not heard a thing .
"That's weird . I heard a woman's laugh, I am absolutely positive . " With a puzzled expression, Han Sen perked up his ears and resolved to pay attention and sniff out the source of the laughter, if it ever sounded again .
A little while later, while Han Sen was climbing the vine, more of that bell-like laughter chimed . Moment Queen and the silver fox still didn't hear a thing .
Han Sen used his dongxuan aura to sense what was around him, but it was to no avail . He couldn't sense any creatures sneaking about .
And this was how it was, all the way up . He would hear the laughter, do his best to locate where it came from, fail, and proceed on up the vine .
"This is getting really weird now . " Han Sen, despite his best efforts, could not uncover the source of this laughter . Onwards he went .
The Empty Island was far bigger than Han Sen imagined it would be . It was like a small kingdom perched above the clouds . Following the vines, they were led up to the island . When there, they saw a number of barren mountains in the distance, which were devoid of all life .
"Let me return to the Sea of Soul, in case I unwittingly draw the attention and possible ire of the Devil-Blood King . Venture there alone and do not draw any unnecessary attention to yourself . If he does not notice your presence, we may very well have a chance of securing the fruit . " It was obvious that Moment Queen believed Han Sen had no chance of competing with the Devil-Blood King .
"Okay . " Han Sen knew he wasn't powerful enough . His compatriots were too fewer; even fewer if you did not count the lazy fairy . It was indeed best to keep a low profile .
Han Sen returned Moment Queen to the Sea of Soul, and then he ventured on towards the center of the island . The Empty Vine ought to have been there .
He walked for ten miles before hearing a familiar voice crying for help . Han Sen was taken by surprise, as he recognized the voice as belonging to a human . It most certainly couldn't have been a spirit .
"Oh, divine masters above, I beseech thee to deliver me aid!" The voice was one of pity, and Han Sen couldn't shake the feeling he had heard that voice many times before .
"Isn't that Wang Yuhang's voice? Why in the world is he here? That should be impossible . " Han Sen, with a head full of questions, felt his face morph .
This was where super creatures roamed in abundance . If Wang Yuhang had continued to accompany Han Sen, since the time they parted ways, God knew what might have transpired . Bad luck tended to follow him like a terrible smell . It was highly likely Han Sen would have been killed by now, as a result of it .
Han Sen then decided to turn around and walk away, but Wang Yuhang's voice was getting audibly closer .
"Bollocks! I cannot be this unlucky, surely?!" Han Sen's heart began to sink, as he saw Wang Yuhang exit the valley ahead .
Wang Yuhang was a great distance away but still, he had managed to spot Han Sen . With a face of surprise, he ran towards him in great hurry, shouting, "Bossman! I cannot believe you have come here to help little old me . To think you have come here to save me from another perilous endeavor . I am touched by your generosity . Touched, I tell you! Here I am, about to die a brutal death, and you have come to save me . "
Han Sen felt rather awkward right now . He hadn't the faintest idea where Wang Yuhang had been spending his days, and he most certainly didn't expect him to be here of all places . He was definitely not planning on saving him .
But having been spotted, there was no point in Han Sen trying to make a quick getaway . Looking behind Wang Yuhang, Han Sen saw a big white goose giving him chase .
When it caught up to Wang Yuhang, it managed to lean forward and snap its beak on his fleeing bum . The pain that resulted from such vicious pecks to the backside had him screaming in pain .
"Bossman, save me!" Wang Yuhang yelled to Han Sen .
Pulling out his Flaming Rex Spike, Han Sen ran forward to engage the goose . Fortunately, the lifeforce of the goose was relatively weak and was more likely a sacred-blood creature more than anything . All he would have to do was kill it .
He struck once, and the goose almost disappeared in a billow of white feathers . The goose was set on fire by the weapon, but it actually managed to survive the hit .
The white goose quacked in agony, as it slowly became a black goose . Delivering another smack, Han Sen brought the feathered fiend to a fiery end .
"Sacred-blood Creature White Goose killed . Beast soul gained . Eat its flesh to gain zero to ten sacred geno points randomly . "
Han Sen had a look at the scorched remains of the goose and thought it best not to waste it . Retrieving his Death Knell, he had it drink its blood in the hopes it would grow .
Han Sen also summoned Princess YinYang . He had them start a fire, so they could cook and have some roast goose to eat .
"Bossman, you truly are a kind soul . I cannot believe you were so willing to help me . " Wang Yuhang gave Han Sen a suffocating hug, as tears and snots dribbled into his clothing .
"I had no idea you would be here . I was only passing through . But tell me, what brought you this far out into the wilds?" Han Sen asked Wang Yuhang .
When Wang Yuhang heard what Han Sen had to say, however, he did not believe him . He looked touched and said, "I knew you came this way to have my back . Feel free to admit it . You came all this way just to save little old me, did you not? Oh, golly! You sure know how to touch a man . "
"Stop . Tell me why you're here . " Han Sen told him as he saw Wang Yuhang leaning in for another wet hug .
Wang Yuhang, however, suddenly looked angry . He said, "Those people are not human, I tell you . I was ice fishing out on an ice lake when they got the drop on me . They knocked me out, and when I woke up, I found myself here inside a cage . They did not treat me like a human being, and left me locked inside a cage for the longest time . Humans should not be forced to suffer in such a way, I tell you . "
Wang Yuhang's voice rose in anger the more he talked, and by the end, Han Sen asked him to stop . But then, he told Han Sen that the people who captured him came under attack by two powerful creatures . Amidst the carnage, he was able to escape .
"Eat something . Once you've had your fill, return to fonder pastures . " Han Sen was not as brave as the others, who had dared bring Wang Yuhang out here . So, Han Sen prepared him food and bid that he leave .
"Of course . " Wang Yuhang grabbed a large chunk of roast goose and began to chow down on it, heartily .
"Quack!"
A strange goose-like quack was heard high in the sky above them . Hurriedly, it descended to land directly in front of Wang Yuhang . Its landing whipped up fierce winds, as their new feathered-foe's red eyes flickered between the roast meal and the unfortunate man that dined on it .
