Gods: Start with Goblins

I thought the other party would give an excuse, but I didn't expect him to nod seriously.

"Well, you are a persistent person, and you are not very likable."

Kasyapa: ...

If she didn't have to maintain her superficial personality, her whole face would probably have turned black.

After saying this, Luo Dan turned around and left without stopping.

Kasyapa became even angrier.

She clenched her fists tightly, feeling extremely unwilling.

Seeing this, the patriarch sighed, but still followed suit to persuade Kasyapa.

"Jiaye, the clan leader advises you to stop as soon as possible. A man like Luodan is not someone you can control. He has also made it clear that he has no interest in you. He is a powerful person. Even if you cannot establish a relationship with him, don't offend him. Even if you have had physical contact, just let it go and forget about him."

Hearing the patriarch's words, Kasyapa felt even more uncomfortable.

These words sound as if they are so lowly, which makes people feel uncomfortable.

"Clan leader, I understand."

She spoke in a coquettish manner on the surface, but in fact she held the grudge in her heart.

Then she found Lodan again and chose a good night.

"What are you doing here again?"

This time, Kasyapa deliberately changed into a set of thin clothes, which, combined with his pretty face, made him look particularly attractive.

"Sir, please don't misunderstand me. I'm not trying to pester you. It's just that I can't repay you for saving my life. No matter what, I should come over and toast you. Otherwise, I would be too heartless."

She approached people under the pretext of repaying a favor, and the reason wasn't too abrupt.

"Sir, I just want to express my gratitude for saving my life. Is this not even possible? Sir, rest assured, after this gratitude, I will not pester you again. I just hope that you can fulfill my wish, and I will be satisfied."

She raised her eyes to look at him, her gaze fully revealing her expectation and pitiful appearance.

It seems that as long as the other party refuses, tears will fall in the next second.

However, Kasyapa's request was not excessive and could even be considered humble.

Anyone with a conscience probably wouldn't be able to refuse the other party.

Luo Dan was not a cruel person. Seeing this, he finally relented and did not keep the person away.

Silence meant consent. Kasyapa's expression relaxed and he walked in happily with the food.

"Thank you for giving me a chance. I am very grateful."

As she spoke, she presented the lunch boxes she had brought with her and opened them one by one in front of Luo Dan.

"Sir, this is a small dish that I cooked myself. It's not particularly delicious, but I hope you can taste it. I also warmed up two pots of good wine, hoping to drink with you."

After that, the dishes were placed on the table one by one, and two glasses of wine were poured.

"Sir, please."

Her attention was not actually on the food, but on the wine.

She tampered with the wine a little bit, and the food turned out to be fine.

"Sir, why don't you drink?"

Luodan raised his wine glass, then put it down again, and suddenly picked up a piece of food with chopsticks.

"I smell the aroma of your dishes and find them quite interesting. Let's eat something first."

Kasyapa: ...

Jiaye didn't think much about it at this moment. Seeing that he didn't drink it by accident, he thought he was lucky.

I originally made a few side dishes just to fool people, but I didn't expect that it would interrupt the original purpose.

She felt a little unwilling and depressed, and she drank the last glass of wine by herself.

But she didn't notice at all that when she drank the glass of wine, Luo Dan's eyes suddenly became very deep and indescribable.

The corners of his mouth seemed to curl up, but not, and the smile quickly disappeared.

When Kasyapa looked over, he seemed calm and composed again.

It was as if nothing had changed, nothing had happened.

But in fact, Luodan saw through something wrong from the beginning, so he did not drink the glass of wine. While picking up the food, he accidentally touched Kasyapa's wine glass and put some poison on it.

Kasyapa had been infected when he was drinking before.

But I just drank it, and the symptoms haven't appeared yet.

Kasyapa himself did not realize it, he was only thinking about how to make Luodan drink the glass of wine in front of him.

"Sir, what's the point of just eating? It's more fun to drink some wine under the flowers and moon. Let me accompany you."

Luodan's goal had been achieved, and he had no time to play along with Kasyapa.

Hearing this, he just smiled lightly, but the smile did not reach his eyes.

He pushed the glass back, calmly.

"No, I still have to go to the tribe leader to get the fruit of life. I'm afraid I don't have time to drink with you. You can drink alone."

After saying that, he got up and left.

Before Kasyapa could react, the person had already walked away.

This was not his excuse. He had indeed found the clan leader, and the clan leader wanted to hide when he saw him.

Luo Dan could see his displeasure, but he didn't expose it. Instead, he glanced at the patriarch calmly.

"As the head of a clan, I think you will not go back on your words, right? Otherwise, how can you remain trustworthy in front of the clan members?"

With just a few words, Luodan hijacked morality and threatened the patriarch from the moral high ground.

A trace of hatred flashed across the clan leader's eyes. He never expected that the man in front of him would be so shameless.

"I know you are anxious, Master Luo... But the fruit of life has not yet fully borne fruit. If you want to go with us to take a look, that's fine."

Luo Dan raised his eyebrows slightly and said nothing.

"So you don't have any yet?"

Luodan was not stupid and he keenly noticed this from what this man said.

The clan leader was exposed and a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face, but it soon became a matter of course.

"The reason why the Fruit of Life is so precious is precisely because it is hard to come by. If it were so easy to get, why would I trade it with you? Sir, if you want to get this Fruit of Life, you'll have to go with us."

The patriarch said this with great confidence, as if he did not think this was a lie, nor did he think there was anything wrong with it.

The corners of Luo Dan's mouth twitched.

He must be crazy to believe the promise of the patriarch.

Sure enough, it was another empty shell.

However, the job has already been done, and it is not his style not to ask for compensation.

Since the clan leader insisted that there was the fruit of life, but the process of getting it was rather tortuous, what would be wrong with me accompanying him?
Now, he became curious about the fruit of life mentioned by the patriarch.

Is there really such a fruit?

Why is the patriarch so secretive? Does this fruit hide some secret?
He narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes moved, but the strangeness in his eyes was quickly hidden.

"Okay, I'll trust you again and go with you. Just don't lie to me."

He said this coldly, with a hint of danger in his words.

The clan leader shuddered subconsciously and wiped the nonexistent sweat from his head. He didn't dare to offend Luo Dan, so he could only maintain a fake smile on his face.

"How could that be? Don't worry, I won't let you down, sir."

Luo Dan snorted coldly, without saying whether he believed it or not, and turned away for the time being.

"We'll set off tomorrow. I'll come find you early tomorrow morning."

He actually set the time earlier than the patriarch and seemed to be the one who made the final decision.

Seeing this, the clan leader felt some resentment and bit his back teeth hard.

"Bah, who do you think you are? You don't even dare to command us now?"

As the clan leader, he has always been the superior commander.

Now that he was suddenly suppressed by someone, the clan leader was naturally very angry.

But he couldn't beat Luodan, so he could only endure it.

As his eyes moved, he had already thought of a good idea, and a hint of viciousness flashed in his eyes.

Taking advantage of the moonlight, he quietly summoned his people.

Soon, a large number of tribesmen came to his yard and gathered around him.

"Chief, what's the matter with you calling us here in the middle of the night?"

"Yes, is it about that foreigner? That person seems to be very powerful. Chief, I heard that he is unwilling to take responsibility for Jiaye. A foreigner is bullying us, so why don't we show some support?"

The tribesmen were talking about this at once, but they had also heard of Luodan.

The patriarch clapped his hands to calm everyone down.

When everyone calmed down and looked at the clan leader, he coughed lightly and spoke word by word.

"Everyone, I called you here today because there is indeed something very important. Luo Dan will go with us to get the Fruit of Life tomorrow."

"The fruit of life? Chief, how can you give such an important thing to an outsider? We may not even be able to get it."

"Yes, Chief, this thing must not fall into the hands of outsiders, it is a good thing!"

The patriarch listened with some impatience, scratched his ears and sneered.

"Shut up, everyone!"

No matter what, the patriarch is still the patriarch.

As soon as he opened his mouth, coupled with his cultivation and aptitude, he was able to overwhelm everyone.

No matter how noisy everyone was, or how dissatisfied they were, they all stopped at this moment, but their expressions were different and they did not seem calm.

The clan leader snorted coldly.

"You idiots, when did you see me bend my elbows?"

As soon as this rhetorical question was asked, the tribesmen seemed to realize something and strangely calmed down.

"Chief, what do you mean?"

"Yes, Chief, are you planning to take advantage of that outsider?"

Everyone exchanged meaningful glances, not knowing what they were thinking of.

The patriarch's mouth curled up into a sneer again.

"This stranger was not only rude, but also abandoned the girl from our tribe. If I just forgive him and even give him the Fruit of Life, that would be a real betrayal. So, I gathered everyone here today to give you a task. On the way to get the Fruit of Life, kill him directly..."

The patriarch did not finish the rest of his words, but just made a gesture of wiping his neck.

In an instant, the eyes of all the tribesmen lit up and their faces became full of vigor and vitality.

"Why didn't you say it earlier, Chief? I knew you weren't the kind of person who would bully the weak and fear the strong. You're just an outsider, what's so great about that!"

"Chief, don't worry. A foreigner dares to step on our heads. We must teach him a lesson this time. It would be best if his soul were buried here, so that everyone knows the consequences of offending us!"

These words really touched the clan leader's heart. Although he did not express any particular agreement on his face, he looked very approving.

"Chief, what should we do next?"

The patriarch waved his hand, his expression very calm.

"No rush. Yes, we have one night to prepare. That's enough time. You just need to carefully select the strongest and most powerful member of the tribe. That person is very capable, even better than me. Therefore, this assassination must be foolproof and the plan must be meticulous."

When they heard that Luo Dan's strength was above that of the clan leader, everyone became much more cautious.

Finally, after a night of discussion, he picked out an elite team.

Almost no one slept tonight, everyone had their own plans.

However, no matter what, time passes by little by little, and dawn will always come.

As the sky turned pale, the clan leader's expression became indescribably strange.

"Its daybreak."

The brave warriors of the tribe whom he carefully selected stood aside, looking at each other with solemn expressions.

"I hope you won't let me down."

After a while, the patriarch curled his lips meaningfully and left only one sentence.

His tribesmen also looked puzzled, and then bowed to him.

Luodan had already washed and dressed, and came to find the patriarch.

Unexpectedly, the patriarch had already made all the arrangements, including the luggage and people to be carried.

"Sir, now you are here. I am ready here too. We can set off now."

Luo Dan's eyes deliberately swept over those muscular men. Although he didn't say anything, his eyes revealed something meaningful.

The patriarch's eyelids twitched, and he quickly explained to avoid the other party noticing anything.

"These are the warriors of my tribe. They have come here to protect us."

"Ah."

Luo Dan responded casually and quickly looked away, seemingly not caring.

Seeing the other party's nonchalant look, the clan leader actually felt a little unhappy.

These are the elite of their own tribe, and seem to be not in the eyes of the other side.

But he is just a dead person, there is no need to take his evaluation seriously.

The clan leader comforted himself in this way, and when he thought of the man's tragic end, he felt a little better and his expression softened.

"Mr. Luo, if there is nothing else, shall we set off?"

"Things like picking fruit are best done as early as possible!"

He was just urging casually, and his tone didn't seem particularly urgent.

Luo Dan looked the man up and down, but didn't see anything wrong. What's more, what he said was correct, so he nodded lightly and responded.

"it is good."

Several people set off quickly.

On the way, the patriarch gestured to the elite members of the tribe, and they also exchanged glances with each other.

But when the exchange was halfway through, Luo Dan in front of them suddenly stopped, as if he was a mountain in front of them, full of oppression.

The clan leader, who already had something to hide, felt extremely depressed.

For a moment, he even thought that the person in front of him had discovered their conspiracy. (End of this chapter)
