She Shocks The Whole World After Retirement

Chapter 310: I Hate Crying People the Most

Yu Huang looked in the direction where the blood was dripping from and saw a man lying on the ground ten meters away. His eyes were wide open and he was staring at the moon in pain.

There was a huge bloody hole in the man’s chest.

Yu Huang approached the man and saw that his heart was missing.

She frowned slightly and looked around. When she didn’t see the culprit, she turned around and went back to where they had set up camp.

Lin Jiansheng had already cleaned up the snow on the ground. The furnace was quite big, and the surroundings were very clean. It seemed that a hunter had rested here before. He was worried that starting a fire would trigger a mountain fire, so he specially made a furnace.

“Why did you take so long?” Lin Jiansheng broke the branch and threw it into the furnace while forming a cone shape. “Quick, use your Purifying Evil Phoenix Flame to start a fire.”

Yu Huang released Xuan Yu, who flew to the fire and flapped his wings a few times. The Purifying Evil Phoenix Flame then began to burn on the pile of firewood.

Yu Huang thought about what she had just seen. She said, “I saw a… woman who ate people’s hearts.” Yu Huang was not sure if that was a woman.

Lin Jiansheng looked up at her.

As if knowing what Yu Huang was suspecting, Lin Jiansheng told her, “That’s not a woman. It’s a monster that was born in the Broken Cliff.”

“Monster?”

“Yes, the grievous energy barrier in the Broken Cliff is too heavy. Some of the vengeful spirits that died there will not be released. As time passes, they will absorb more grievous energy and transform into various monsters.”

“Hunters who hunt in the Broken Cliff are most afraid of meeting ‘desire’. ‘Desire’ is a type of monster produced by resentment. They can transform into the appearance of the woman that hunters like the most and seduce them before devouring their bodies.”

“You must have met one of those monsters.”

Yu Huang frowned. She said, “They clearly knew that there would be such monsters in the Broken Cliff. Why don’t these hunters know how to be vigilant?”

“They are very cunning,” Lin Jiansheng told Yu Huang. “Some of them are very smart. They will blend into the hunter group and pretend to be friends with them before seducing them.”

Yu Huang exclaimed, “Impressive!”

These monsters were really dedicated.

“Remember, the people you see in the Broken Cliff might not necessarily be humans.” Lin Jiansheng placed his hands on the fire to absorb the heat. He said, “This is a place that shouldn’t exist. At the end of the day, these monsters are also a species created from human sins.”

“They deserved it.”

The Broken Cliff was a land of abandoned corpses for thousands of years.

For thousands of years, countless people had abandoned corpses that could not be disposed of at the bottom of the cliff. Over time, the bottom of the cliff became a valley of corpses. The resentment here was the richest in the world.

No one dared to risk entering Broken Cliff. Lin Jiansheng might be the first in history.

Lin Jiansheng asked Yu Huang, “Are you hungry?”

Yu Huang nodded. “A little.”

Lin Jiansheng took out two sweet potatoes and a few potatoes from his storage and threw them into the firewood. He said to Yu Huang, “Your hotpot and my sweet potato potatoes will be our food for the next few months.”

“I can eat everything.”

“That’s good.”

After the two of them roasted sweet potatoes and potatoes, Yu Huang flew to a tree and slept with her clothes on. Lin Jiansheng was afraid of the cold, so he set up a small tent beside the bonfire to block the wind and snow. He then covered it with a thick blanket.

The Purifying Evil Phoenix Flame was indestructible and could burn for an entire night. This night, the mentor and disciple slept rather peacefully.

In the morning, Yu Huang destroyed the Purifying Evil Phoenix Flame with a stomp and continued following Lin Jiansheng in the direction of Broken Cliff. Along the way, Lin Jiansheng would occasionally encounter medicinal herbs and point them out to Yu Huang.

Lin Jiansheng said, “There aren’t many alchemists in our world. That’s because our continent is lacking in medicinal herbs. I heard from your father that in the Upper World, other than Beast Tamers and Diviners, alchemists are also a lucrative profession.”

Lin Jiansheng said with a face full of yearning, “I wonder if it’s more profitable to be an alchemist or a Purifying Spirit Master.”

Yu Huang asked, “Do you want to change your profession?”

“I do,” Lin Jiansheng said. “In the future, you will definitely go to the outside world to explore. How can I be at ease if you go alone? I will naturally accompany you. In the outside world, if our profession as a Purifying Spirit Master is not profitable, we have to change professions.”

When Yu Huang heard this, her heart felt warm. She said, “Then change your profession!”

“Okay.”

As they walked, they encountered a small team of hunters.

There were nine people in this team, seven men, two women, and a child. However, at this moment, the atmosphere in this hunter team was very tense. Everyone’s face was covered with a layer of gloom.

In front of them was a corpse that had lost its heart.

Before Yu Huang and the rest approached, they heard the leader of the hunter team growl. “Isaac’s heart is missing. It must have been eaten by a monster!”

“But Isaac is very cautious. He’s an old hunter. He shouldn’t have fallen for it!”

The captain raised his head and looked at the two women in the team with a sinister gaze. He said sinisterly, “You two women have unknown backgrounds. Your identities are very suspicious.”

As he spoke, the captain’s attention was mainly focused on the beautiful female hunter with a child.

The female hunter was carrying a bow and arrow on her back. She was wearing a leather jacket that was standard for hunters. She looked like an expert hunter.

The leader’s gaze made the mother feel uneasy. She subconsciously shielded the little boy behind her and explained in a low voice, “It’s not me. I’m a hunter. I’m very good at hunting. You guys also acknowledged my archery skills.”

The captain took a deep look at the woman before his gaze landed on the other woman’s face. Compared to the mother who had a child, this woman’s appearance was relatively ordinary, but it could be considered above average.

Seeing the captain look at her, the woman was so frightened that her face turned red. She explained with tears in her eyes, “Captain, it’s not me, I only know how to cook! Isaac is so heroic and mighty, so how could I hurt him?!”

This woman looked delicate and pitiful. She really didn’t look like someone who could kill.

No matter how he looked at it, that beautiful woman with the bow on her back looked like the murderer.

The captain stared at the two women. He was conflicted.

Yu Huang and Lin Jiansheng were standing on the mountaintop. Upon seeing this scene, they didn’t interfere. Lin Jiansheng asked Yu Huang, “Is that man the person you saw last night?”

Yu Huang nodded.

Lin Jiansheng added, “That pitiful woman who is crying is Desire.”

Yu Huang looked at Lin Jiansheng in astonishment and asked curiously, “How did you know?”

Lin Jiansheng sneered and said, “These monsters are best at playing with people’s hearts. They know very well what kind of people these boorish men like, so they deliberately put on a soft and pitiful appearance to gain their sympathy. When I see such a crying woman, I feel annoyed. It’s very fake.”

Yu Huang said, “But when you reunited with my father, you were also crying your eyes out.”

Lin Jiansheng immediately felt embarrassed.

He stuffed his hands into the pockets of his jacket and defended himself stubbornly, “A man doesn’t cry easily. It’s just that I felt sad and sorry for your father.”

Yu Huang said, “Oh.”

This “Oh” was meaningful.

Lin Jiansheng felt a little awkward as well. He leaned against the tree behind him and said, “Since there’s nothing else, let’s just watch.”
