Daily Intelligence, Starting Out I Obtain the Heaven-devouring Demonic Art

93: Tiansheng Village!Tiansheng Village... is nestled deep within Gathering Spirit Valley, where mist and clouds linger year-round. The only entrance and exit is a cave concealed by a hundred-foot waterfall.

After passing through the cave, the first thing one sees is an ancient banyan tree at the village entrance, so massive it would take three people to encircle it.

Its branches are lush with leaves, and countless aerial roots hang from its gnarled branches. Every time the moonlight first rises, the aerial roots condense into glistening dewdrops, which the villagers call ’Condensing Dew.’ Drinking it is said to clear the mind and brighten the eyes.

Winding flagstone paths connect the bamboo-fenced cottages within the village. The walls are covered with ’Moonlight Grass’ that emits a faint luminescence, making the village appear like a fallen galaxy at night.

In the Spirit Stream on the west side of the village, colorful koi swim in the clear water, occasionally leaping out of the surface, scattering tiny specks of Spiritual Light.

By the stream, several white-haired, youthful-faced elders sit cross-legged in meditation. As they breathe, points of Spiritual Qi, condensed into light, flutter like fireflies.

In the largest open space in the village, several children chase and play. Occasionally, a child’s fingertip sparks with a faint Spiritual Light, drawing kind laughter from the elders nearby.

Wisps of cooking smoke rise, intertwining with the valley’s mist. The air is filled with the fresh scent of spirit rice and medicinal herbs.

Here, there are no external conflicts or disturbances, only the tranquility of time, like a pure land cherished by heaven and earth, a true haven.

When Pei San returned to the familiar village, he could no longer suppress his homesickness.

Greeting many villagers, he ran towards his home, eager to pour out his grievances to his father.

Not long after, Pei San finally arrived at his house.

”Father! I’m back!”

Pei San, unable to contain his joy, shouted.

Soon, a dark-skinned, bearded man walked out of the house. It was Pei San’s father, Pei Ri Tian.

”Son... son? Why... why are you back?”

Pei Ri Tian looked at his son, Pei San, who had suddenly returned home. Although his face showed joy, there was a subtle hint of unnaturalness.

But Pei San didn’t notice. He directly threw himself into his father’s arms, recounting his experiences and grievances from this period.

”Cough, cough, cough...!”

”Son! This is why your father made you leave the village to train outside! Hardship can make you grow quickly!”

”Of course, for the wrongs you’ve suffered, once your father’s injuries heal, I will definitely resolve them for you! Rest for a night today, and tomorrow, continue your training outside the village! How can you see a rainbow without experiencing the storm? Understand?”

Pei Ri Tian covered his mouth, coughing violently a few times, and comforted him.

However, when he lowered his hand, a trace of blood appeared in his palm.

”Father, I understand!”

Pei San nodded with a serious expression.

After his father’s comfort, his mood improved significantly.

And he also firmly believed that once his father’s injuries healed, he would be able to avenge himself.

Afterward, Pei San went straight back to his room.

A figure emerged from the shadows behind him and hugged Pei San.

”Xiao San! I missed you so much!”

A gentle female voice sounded.

”Xiao Bai! I missed you too!”

Pei San also turned and hugged Xiao Bai.

Just as the two were about to engage in intimacy...

”Wait! Xiao Bai, cover your head first, or I’ll feel uncomfortable!”

Pei San found a cloth and, after covering Xiao Bai’s head, the two quickly became one.

However, Xiao Bai, whose head was covered, vaguely showed some animal-like white fur.

After a night passed... Pei San got up, took a quick stroll around Tiansheng Village, and then, following his father’s words, prepared to continue his training in the outside world.

Although it was morning, Pei Ri Tian had meticulously prepared a hot pot and a pot of good wine, ready to see his son off.

”By the way, Father, has my mother left the village again? When will she be back?”

Pei San asked, puzzled, adding a piece of meat to the hot pot. The taste was incredibly delicious, making one want to eat more and more.

”Your mother... didn’t say when she left! She should be back before too long!”

Pei Ri Tian’s gaze showed a hint of unnaturalness again upon hearing this, but he was looking down at his food, so Pei San still didn’t notice anything unusual.

”Alright then!”

”Father, why is this meat so delicious today? It’s really too good!”

Pei San no longer dwelled on his mother, instead picking up another piece of meat and saying.

However, just then, a rabbit ear floated up from the bottom of the pot, causing Pei San’s hand, holding the meat, to freeze.

”Father! Why is there a rabbit ear in this pot?”

Pei San stared at his father, asking nervously.

”It’s rabbit meat! Of course, there are rabbit ears!”

Pei Ri Tian said as if it were the most natural thing.

”Ra... rabbit meat? Did Father... eat Xiao Bai?!”

Pei San sprang to his feet, his eyes filled with disbelief.

”Xiao Bai was just a rabbit. Isn’t it normal for her to be eaten?”

Pei Ri Tian said indifferently.

”No... Xiao Bai... Xiao Bai was my lover!”

Pei San said, heartbroken and indignant.

”Nonsense! Xiao Bai was just a rabbit, a rabbit that failed to shapeshift!”

Pei Ri Tian scolded.

”Father! You... you...!”

Pei San stared at his father, his face full of grievances, too angry to speak.

”I’ll just ask you one thing: now that Xiao Bai is dead, do you still intend to disown me as your father?”

Pei Ri Tian pointed at the bubbling hot pot and asked.

”I... acknowledge you!”

Pei San lowered his head, his mood somewhat downcast.

In fact, thinking about it seriously, Xiao Bai’s existence was just for him to vent his beastly desires and peculiar preferences.

Now that Xiao Bai was gone, he was initially a little angry, but he quickly calmed down.

”Then, is this rabbit meat fragrant?”

Pei Ri Tian asked again.

”Fragrant...!”

Pei San hesitated for a moment before saying.

”Then there you have it, eat...!”

Pei Ri Tian pointed at the rabbit meat in the hot pot and said.

”Okay...!”

Pei San gradually stopped resisting the rabbit meat and ate it with great relish.

Finally, Pei San left Tiansheng Village again.

And after his son, Pei San, departed, Pei Ri Tian’s expression gradually relaxed. He picked up a hammer and walked into a patch of woods behind the village.

”Luckily, my son didn’t discover it!”

Pei Ri Tian murmured.

Soon, an altar the size of a basketball court appeared in Pei Ri Tian’s sight. Bound above the altar was a woman covered in blood.

Drip, drip, drip...!

Blood continuously dripped from the woman’s body, gradually filling a mysterious rune on the altar... And at this time, Wang Teng had already arrived at Zijing Mountain. Two Prodigies with special Physiques were about to begin their battle.

[Today’s Intel 1: Among the spectators at Zijing Mountain, Chen Mingce, a Prodigy from the Blood Fiend Evil Sect, intends to reap the benefits of their conflict, killing Chu Fenghen and Yun Moxiao to improve his dragon-tiger rankings.]

”Chen Mingce, I remember he’s a Prodigy ranked thirty-fifth on the dragon-tiger rankings, possessing the special Devouring Spirit Physique!”

”In that case, don’t blame me for being impolite today!”

Wang Teng’s lips curved into a brilliant smile...
