The next day, Lin Xiao did his morning practice with the others before departing to the village. Wenren Yu had no other choice but to stay because he didn't want his presence as an intruder in the village was made known.

With the destruction of Taiyi Sect occurring just recently, it would be highly suspicious if he just suddenly appeared.

They needed to wait for the right time.

"Brother, do you think the villagers will allow us to come and join in?" Lin Yun asked as he took his bag filled with some basic weapon to go.

Lin Xiao shrugged. "They're the one who invited us. Why would they reject us on their door? Unless they want to say that they're lying about inviting us to feast together, we shouldn't worry about anything."

"Alright. I'll do as you say, Brother."

Since Lin Yun was with him, Lin Xiao had no other choice but to circle around the mountain and head into the village using the different path. While passing the river, Lin Xiao pointed inside and told Lin Yun in small voice that the cave he found was there.

The two brothers rarely kept secret from each other except if it was truly a grave secret. Probably, when they have terminal illness, they would never want to tell it to the other party in fear that they would only cause worry. Or if they have a girl they liked, they wouldn't want to tell their brother before they were certain of their feelings and wanted to pursue that certain girl.

If not, the two of them would surely tease the other party.

"The bull is said to come from this direction, Brother," Lin Yun pointed to the front of the village when they could see it from a distance.

Lin Xiao nodded. "I know."

He was practically the one who pulled the bull to this area from the forest because that bull was chasing after him. In fact, Lin Xiao was wondering why that bull specifically chose to target him even when he did nothing at first.

"Oh, Little Xiao, Little Yun, you two are here." A middle aged man waved his hand. His hair was already partially white, but he still stood firmly. Sign of aging could be seen on his face and hands.

"Shopkeeper Wan," Lin Xiao greeted. He grinned. "Are you here to promote your new items again?"

"Ahahaha, I'm here to ask you to try something new, Little Xiao," Shopkeeper Wan replied with a grin. "You will help this old man to test his new items, right?"

"Uh…"

Lin Xiao knew that whenever Shopkeeper Wan found something interesting, he would ask someone in the village to try it out. Most of them wouldn't want to because it could be dangerous or embarrassing. Only Lin Xiao occasionally still accepted the request because of one very precious items.

"How much this time?"

"One silver."

"I want to see the items first," Lin Xiao didn't agree immediately. If Shopkeeper Wan quoted such a high price, it meant that the item must be very dangerous. He did love money, but he didn't want to risk his life just to earn a silver coin.

Shopkeeper Wan laughed. "Come to find me tomorrow. For today, you should just enjoy the feast."

"Thank you for your consideration, Shopkeeper Wan."

They entered the village and walked to the main hall. The bull was already roasted and put in the main table. Several people were guarding it as they have to wait for the three elders before they could start eating.

"Oh, it looks delicious."

"Indeed."

Lin Xiao waited at the back with his brother. As the younger generation, it was not weird that they would only get the last pick. There was a saying that they should respect the old, so they would wait patiently for their turn to come.

More and more people came to the main hall. Their gazes were fixed onto the large bull in the middle, but no one dared to approach it yet. Everyone knew the rules and no one dared to break it here.

"Oh, you also came here, Lin Xiao?"

The familiar voice made Lin Xiao turned his head. He could see Su Han walked in his direction with the latter's arm crossed.

"Why shouldn't I come?"

"You didn't participate yesterday, but you want to enjoy the feast?"

"I'm invited to come," Lin Xiao replied. "Also, do you even participate in the hunt yesterday?"

"Me? Of course I did! I helped to shoot an arrow."

An arrow?

Lin Xiao sent a mocking gaze at Su Han. He had already fired three arrows at that bull yesterday because the bull was actually chasing him. But it would be better for him to not mention it.

If he was not wrong, several hunting squad members were injured due to the bull yesterday. If he dared to tell them that he was the one who lured the bull here, they would surely come to beat him black and blue.

Lin Xiao still wanted to stay healthy to be able to test Shopkeeper Wang's item. He should refrain from getting beaten up for no reason like that.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Do you want to have a bout?"

"Huh, Su Han, you're saying that those who didn't participate can't eat, but I'm sure that more than half of the villagers here actually only hide in their houses when the bull come," Lin Xiao said with light tone. "Isn't your words the same as saying that the bull only belonged to your hunting squad?"
