Chapter 1710 Tell Me You're Not Angry

Seeing how well they worked together, the clone felt relieved.

A faint commotion came from behind a haystack a hundred meters away.

The clone just looked up.

"Who goes there?!" The Elf King pulled a villager into his hand with a single stroke.

"Spare me, spare me!" The villagers were so frightened that they turned pale and hurriedly begged for mercy.

The clone and Xiaoyue quickly walked over, "Let him go, he has no cultivation, he's just an ordinary person."

The Elf King was unwilling to let them go: "Why would an ordinary person peek?"

"It must be the first time they've seen someone with your appearance, so they found it novel and that's why they were peeking at you from the shadows."

"Looks like this?" The Elf King released the villager and walked slowly towards Xiaoyue. "What do I look like?"

Full of pressure.

With every step he took, he exuded an overwhelming aura of hormones, making Xiaoyue's face flush red. She stammered, "You...I..."

He stammered for a long time, but couldn't utter a single complete sentence.

"Ahhh! Help! There's a monster! A monster with pointed ears!" The villagers had just taken the opportunity to run away, but after running a distance, they immediately shouted, attracting everyone in the village to come over.

"What kind of monster is this?"

"He's so tall!"

"Is it a humanoid soul beast? But it doesn't have the aura of a soul beast on it!"

The villagers had no idea about elves. They instinctively regarded the Elf King as an unknown and evil race.

"He just grabbed me and tried to eat me!" The villagers, who had just escaped and spread the news, cried out loudly to everyone.

The Elf King had no other choice.

Even if he did eat people, he would still choose those that looked good and were edible, right?

The villager was covered in the smell of fish.

He felt his soul ascend to heaven just from smelling it.

"What! It can eat people? Those two, weren't they from outside a few days ago? Did they bring this monster here?"

The villagers' eyes fell on the clone and Xiaoyue.

Of course, the most attention was drawn to the Elf King.

After all, he was extremely tall and handsome, and he gave off a tough and intimidating vibe, so it was hard for people not to be wary of him.

"Don't be afraid, everyone. I've already gone to town to call the disciples from the Beast Taming Academy."

"They can definitely kill this man-eating monster!"

Kill?

The Elf King frowned in displeasure upon hearing those two words. He already disliked foreigners, and now, despite doing nothing, these humans were hostile towards him.

Could he just crush them to death?

Sensing the killing intent emanating from the Elf King, his clone approached and reassured him, "Don't bother with a bunch of ignorant ordinary people."

"Yeah, yeah, they won't dare do anything to you. The beast-taming academy they're talking about is my family's academy. When those disciples come, I'll just make them leave," Xiaoyue comforted her.

The Elf King's brow relaxed slightly.

Unexpectedly, he was protected by two human women.

Although, he doesn't need it.

Fine, I'll just do as they say. This isn't the elven realm; if I go on a killing spree, it will surely incur the wrath of the human race's supreme rulers.

"They have accomplices! Right inside the herbalist's house!" The sharp-eyed villagers spotted Grace and Li Lebin refining medicine inside the open door.

"Where's Pharmacist Hua?"

"Could it be that Pharmacist Hua has already..."

"Pharmacist Hua was a good person. She treated us for free and took great care of us. Now that she has died tragically in the mouth of this monster, I must avenge her!"

Every villager on the island had benefited from Hua Ling's kindness.

They also know how to repay kindness.

One by one, completely disregarding the vast disparity in strength between the two sides, they grabbed whatever weapons were available nearby—shovels, spades, stones, and so on.

He charged over, yelling.

To prevent the Elf King from getting angry, Xiaoyue immediately took out an isolation talisman and locked the villagers inside.

"Alright, alright, they won't bother you anymore." Xiaoyue gave the Elf King an awkward smile.

"You are also human, how can you act as accomplices to tyrants!" The villagers desperately tried to smash the isolation barrier.

But it's useless.

Just then, the villager who had gone out to report the news arrived with disciples from the Beast Taming Academy: "It's just ahead! There's a very tall, man-eating monster!"

Several disciples from the Beast Taming Academy strode over with an air of superiority: "Don't worry, these are just monsters. We can crush them with a flick of our fingers!"

"That's right, we're all experts who have broken through to the god level!"

"Wow? This doesn't look like a man-eating monster at all." The disciples immediately spotted the Elf King, who was the tallest and most conspicuous in the crowd.

Then he saw the clone beside him. "What a beautiful woman. Is she human?"

Then, she saw Xiaoyue: "Xiaoyue? What are you doing here? Are you being blackmailed?"

Every disciple of the Beast Taming Academy knew Xiao Yue's identity. Although they were elite disciples of the academy, they rarely had the opportunity to see Xiao Yue on a regular basis.

Now that we've finally met, we should try our best to get on their good side.

“I wasn’t being blackmailed,” Xiaoyue said.

If she were being threatened, would she still be standing here unharmed?

"He's not some man-eating monster, he's my friend."

"So it was your friend! What a misunderstanding!" The disciples laughed heartily.

The villagers inside the isolation barrier were in cahoots and didn't believe Xiaoyue's words at all: "What a load of rubbish, it's all a misunderstanding! Someone was almost eaten by him just now!"

"You say I eat people, do you have any evidence?" The Elf King shattered the barrier with a single palm strike.

His eyes were fixed on the person who was speaking.

The latter felt as if his blood had frozen, and he couldn't utter a sound from his terrified throat.

The Elf King did not intentionally release his oppressive aura.

However, he had been in a high position for too long, and his authority was imposing even without anger.

Not only the villagers, but also several disciples with god-level cultivation felt very uncomfortable; they didn't even have the courage to look directly at the Elf King.

This won't do. If this continues, they might suffer internal injuries.

One of the disciples, quick-witted as ever, said, "I think everyone has really misunderstood. He's so powerful that even the few of us are no match for him. If he wanted to eat people, would any of you here have any chance of survival?"

The villagers agreed with this statement.

The dissenting voices gradually disappeared.

The Elf King suppressed his anger and suppressed his imposing aura.

If these villagers don't know what's good for them, he will definitely massacre the entire village.

"I'm sorry." After the disciples dispersed the villagers, they apologized to the Elf King.

There was nothing they could do; they said some offensive things before they understood right from wrong.

Such a top-tier expert is someone these small fry can't possibly mess with. If they don't back down, this day next year could be their death anniversary.

But the Elf King didn't want to pay any attention to them.

"It's alright, it's alright, the misunderstanding is cleared up, he's not angry anymore." Seeing that the atmosphere was too tense, Xiaoyue stepped in to mediate.

"Quickly, tell me you're not angry anymore." She pinched the soft flesh on the Elf King's waist.
