The black figure really went into the hollow of the tree, and then, with the light of the lightning outside, Leng Jun could vaguely see the black figure's appearance.

Leng Jun felt that the person that gave the black figure should be a person, because he also walked on two legs. However, he didn't seem like a person because all of his fur was very long, whether it was his hair or his beard.

The black shadow also looked at Leng Jun who was curled up inside the tree hole, and revealed a look of confusion. After pausing for a moment, the dark figure seemed to not mind that there were other people in the tree hole, and still bent down to enter the tree hole.

The hole in the tree was so large that even though they were squeezed into it, the two of them still seemed very spacious. Although there was still a small gap between the two of them, Leng Jun could still feel a warm feeling coming from the black figure beside him.

Leng Jun calmed his fear a little. This strange person had a body temperature, which meant that he was at least human and not a ghost.

After confirming that the other party was not a ghost, Leng Jun became a lot more at ease, and started to quietly observe the person beside him.

This Weirdo was very tall, at least taller and sturdier than the Swordsman s he had seen in the Profound Sky City. He was not wearing coarse clothes like his, but a coat made of some unknown beast's skin.

Leng Jun realized that he had misunderstood. This Weirdo did not have any fur, only his hair and beard were especially long. Where the hide could not cover, a smooth, bronze-colored skin fell.

Leng Jun guessed that the person in front of him should be a barbarian. This was because this person was the same person that his mother had told him many stories about savages in the mountains in order to not let him go there alone. Leng Jun felt that this person in front of him looked exactly like the wild man that his mother had described to him back then.

Thinking about it, Leng Jun suddenly became afraid again. Because he remembered what his mother had said about the barbarians in the mountains who loved to eat children like him.

When the Weirdo heard the rustling sounds coming from Leng Jun's side, it was as if he was looking at him. Although he moved his gaze out of the tree cave after taking a look, Leng Jun was still extremely frightened.

"Gulp ~ gulp ~"

It was the sound of his stomach growling, the hungry growl of the Weirdo.

The sound was very loud, so loud that even though there was the sound of rain falling outside the tree hole, Leng Jun could still hear the sound clearly. It was obvious that this Weirdo had been starving for a while.

Leng Jun was even more afraid, he anxiously opened a small cloth bag he brought along, and after rummaging for a while, he took out an oily paper bag from inside.

Inside the oil paper bag, there were two pancakes that Leng Jun stole from the kitchen when he left the Swordsman Restaurant in Tian Wei City. Leng Jun's appetite was small, but even so, he only had two pancakes left.

Relying on his courage, Leng Jun opened the corner of the oil paper package, revealing the oil cake inside. Then, he extended his hand, and handed the oil paper bag over to Weirdo. He hoped that the Weirdo would accept it and not eat him after eating the biscuit.

Just as Leng Jun thought, Weirdo received the oilcake wrapped in oilpaper. However, the Weirdo took out a piece of paper from his oil bag that was sick, then returned the remaining piece of paper to Leng Jun.

Weirdo tore the biscuit in his hand and started to chew, then he shifted his gaze to the outside of the tree cave once again.

Leng Jun didn't understand why the Weirdo wanted to return the Oil Pancake to him. He only instinctively guessed that the Weirdo probably didn't like the Oil Pancake and still wanted to eat him.

The more Leng Jun thought about it, the more afraid he became. He wanted to escape, but the entrance of the tree was blocked by the Weirdo. He wanted to bribe the Weirdo to get back at him for all he had done. But now, he couldn't think of any other way.

In the end, Leng Jun was not afraid anymore. Since he had no other way, Leng Jun might as well accept his fate. After reducing the nervousness he felt from being afraid, Leng Jun also felt his stomach beginning to growl. Thus, he opened the oil paper bag that Weirdo returned to him in a huff, took out the oil cake inside, and started to eat it.

"Humph, even if I die, I want to be a dead meat ball!"

Just as Leng Jun was thinking, a voice suddenly came out.

"Thank you!"

Leng Jun clearly heard these two words, and hurriedly looked around. He discovered that other than him and the Weirdo, there was no one else.

"Is he talking to me?"

Just as Leng Jun was thinking, the Weirdo started to speak again.

"Thank you for the biscuit."

This time, Leng Jun was sure that the one speaking was the Weirdo in front of him. Thus, he whispered in a probing tone, "No need to thank me!"

Weirdo turned his head and looked at him again. This time, a smile actually appeared on Weirdo's face. Although his smile was a bit stiff, Leng Jun could still feel that this Weirdo didn't have any malice towards him.

Seeing this smile, a thought suddenly appeared in Leng Jun's mind.

Although he was not sure whether it was Jade Toad Peak or not, Leng Jun was sure that he was at South Coiled Mountain. And that South Heavenly King who was even more powerful than the thirty-six sect Sect Master s lived at South Coiled Mountain. Could this Weirdo in front of him be the South Heavenly King?

The more Leng Jun thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was right. It was only a short while ago that Weirdo entered the tree cave. His beast skin was actually not even slightly drenched by the pouring rain outside.

Seeing this, Leng Jun became more and more convinced that he was right. Thus, he timidly asked Weirdo: "Who are you, why are you here?"

Weirdo maintained his stiff smile and said, "Why am I here? It's because this is my home. Instead, it's you. Why would a little fellow like you be here, where are your parents? "

Hearing Weirdo say that this was his home, Leng Jun was almost certain that the Weirdo in front of him was South Heavenly King. But when he heard Weirdo mention him being with his parents, he could not help but feel sorrowful.

Leng Jun suddenly kneeled in front of Weirdo, then fiercely kowtowed and said: "I am here to learn from my master, you can take me as your disciple and teach me Martial Skill."

Weirdo was stunned, the smile on his face also disappeared, after being stunned for a while, he extended his hand out and pulled out Leng Jun's small head, preventing her from hitting it again.

"Why did you want to learn Martial Skill?"

Hearing Weirdo's question, Leng Jun suddenly stopped sobbing. He raised his head and resolutely said, "Revenge!"

Weirdo could see the anger of hatred in Leng Jun's eyes. He shook his head and said: "Even if you possess the overwhelming strength, it would not be that easy to take revenge. Furthermore, with the Martial Skill in your possession, you may even be in even more pain."

Leng Jun said with a resolute expression: "I'm not afraid!"
