Cosmic Hegemony: I Just Want To Be A Wealthy Tyrant

The boy felt speechless when he saw Nie Linghui's fierce look.

It was obviously the fruit he gave her, but he became a villain.

This girl is somewhat mentally ill.

Nie Linghui breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the boy no longer asked her for fruit. She carefully put the dragon blood fruit into the storage bag, feeling a little embarrassed to take such a precious thing for nothing.

After thinking for a long time, Nie Linghui took out a High Grade Law Weapon from the storage bag and handed it to the little boy.

"I didn't ask for your Dragon Blood Fruit in vain. I see that you use a bow and arrow, so this Wind Spirit Bow should be a gift to you."

The boy took the Law Weapon from her with a curious expression. It was a palm-sized cyan bow and arrow, with a very delicate and beautiful shape, and its whole body was shining with spiritual light. The boy held it with his fingers and observed it for a long time, then asked in confusion:

"Is such a small bow for the Lilliputians? It's not as big as my hand. No, I'll give it back to you."

When Nie Linghui heard this, she immediately said angrily:

"This is a Law Weapon. Do you understand the Law Weapon? It will grow bigger if you lose Entering Spirit power."

After saying that, she also demonstrated it herself. The little boy looked at the enlarged Wind Spirit Bow, and little stars almost appeared in his eyes. He couldn't wait to grab it back, but found that the bow and arrow had no string at all.

"Why isn't there even a bowstring? Wait while I take off the bowstring and put it on."

With that said, he was about to dismantle his bone bow. Upon seeing this, Nie Linghui hurriedly stopped him, dumbfounded.

"This Law Weapon bow does not require strings. When you input the spiritual power in your body into it, it will automatically generate arrows with wind attributes. You see, that's it."

The boy looked at the bow and arrow in Nie Linghui's hand, and slowly produced a green arrow, with a thoughtful look in his eyes. Then he took the Wind Spirit Bow again and injected the strange power in his body into the bow. But after a while, there was still no movement from the bow and arrow. He immediately returned the bow and arrow to Nie Linghui with his head downcast.

Nie Linghui didn't know how to comfort the boy, so she held it in for a long time before she could say anything.

"Don't you have a Spirit Root?"

The little boy looked at her frustratedly and asked:

“What is Spirit Root?”

"Then how did you enter the Secret Realm?"

"Secret Realm? What is Secret Realm? You keep asking me how to enter Secret Realm, but I don't even know what Secret Realm is?"

Nie Linghui asked a little dullly after hearing this:

"How did you come to this world? This world is the Secret Realm."

"I've been here since I was born."

The dull girl Nie Linghui suddenly realized:

"So you are a Witch Race! This is the first time I have seen a Witch Race person! Didn't the book say that you are savage and look like ferocious beasts? Why do you look exactly like us Human Race kids?"

When the little boy heard this, he looked at Nie Linghui angrily and said:

"You look like a ferocious beast!"

Nie Linghui saw that the little boy was a little angry, and knew that she was speaking out of turn again. He quickly covered his mouth and said:

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it like that, I was just a little surprised. What's your name?"

"Gao Ri."

"What a strange surname. Do all your people have this surname?"

The little boy shook his head and said:

"I don't have a surname. My mother told me that I was born by the lake, and it was exactly noon when I was born. So I took this name."

Nie Linghui nodded suddenly. Seeing that the little boy still looked a little disappointed, she suddenly had an idea and took out a piece of silver soft armor from the storage bag and handed it to the little boy and said:

"Don't be sad, I will give you this dress. You can wear it even without Spirit Qi. Put it on and you will become Invulnerability To Spears and Sabers."

Although Gao Ri is much more mentally mature than his peers, he is still only a child under ten years old after all.

As the saying goes: A child's face can change on a June day.

Gao Ri stroked the cold soft armor, then untied the animal skin and put it on with a smile.

Originally, the soft armor was a bit too big for him, but within a few seconds, the soft armor automatically fit onto his body.

Gao Ri moved a bit, and the soft armor was clearly on his body, but he couldn't feel any weight at all. He took out an arrow and pierced it into the soft armor, but the extremely sharp arrow was easily blocked by the soft armor. He didn't even feel any pain.

This magical scene made Gao Ri extremely happy. He hugged Nie Linghui excitedly and danced on the spot. This embarrassed the little princess. This was the first time in her life that she was hugged like this, even though the other person was just a child.

After a while of commotion, Nie Linghui asked Gao Ri:

"How long are we going to hide here? Are they gone already?"

Hearing this, Gao Ri shook his head and said:

"These damn demons are very bad. They must still be nearby. We will have to stay for a while longer."

Nie Linghui didn't say anything after hearing this. After a moment of silence, the restless little girl asked again:

"Where is your home? How did you come out alone?"

Gao Ri saw Nie Linghui's brows tangled together. He hesitated for a moment before speaking:

"Grandpa told me that we cannot tell any outsiders about our home. But I don't think you are a bad person, so I will tell you secretly that my home lives at the foot of the Holy Mountain. I came to the grassland with my tribe to hunt for food. I just came out. Unexpectedly, I encountered a hateful demon on the way. Alas! I don’t know if uncle and grandpa escaped..."

After listening to Gao Ri's story, Nie Linghui learned that his uncle and grandpa took the initiative to stop the demons in order to cover Gao Ri's escape. Gao Ri fled all the way here, and then met her who was besieged. All this seems to be destined, very similar to the fate and disasters in the book.

Thinking of this, Nie Linghui couldn't help but let out a long sigh. She didn't know if Senior Brother Weibai and Senior Brother Hu Yanzhuo were anxious if they didn't find her.

The two of them each had their own sad things, and the air suddenly became silent.

After a long silence, the little boy calmed down and said to Nie Linghui:

"I know a shortcut to get back to the Holy Mountain. Let's find another way out. The demon shouldn't be able to find it."

Nie Linghui herself didn't have any opinions. When the little boy said this, she nodded in agreement.

The two crawled along another passage for nearly an hour before reaching the end of the passage. Gao Ri first stuck out his little head and observed for a while. Outside the entrance of the cave, the wind was calm and the grass was luxuriant. Then she whispered to Nie Huiling behind her:

"Come out, it's safe here."

The two of them got out of the hole. At this time, the sun outside was no longer so hot, and the wind on the grassland blew on them, which was very refreshing. Gao Ri observed it for a moment, then hunched over and walked in one direction. Nie Linghui also followed his example. The two of them walked forward for dozens of steps, but the surroundings suddenly turned into snow-covered mountains and forests. Gusts of cold wind hit, and the freezing Gao Ri shivered instantly.

Gao Ri looked at the scene in front of him with a confused look on his face. He didn't understand how he could change places after just one step when he was still on the prairie.

He didn't understand, but Nie Huiling knew what the scene in front of her meant. Her expression changed drastically, she grabbed Gao Ri's little hand and said nervously:

"Don't move! We are trapped in the formation. If you take one wrong step, you will never find a way out. You listen to me and don't look back. Let's go back step by step. I hope this is just a poor illusion. Formation, otherwise..."

Nie Linghui did not finish her words because she felt that it would be better not to say such desperate words. Now it was just her and a child younger than herself, and the sudden trap actually made her learn to grow up.

The two of them were like a pair of frightened deer, stepping back step by step. Nie Linghui kept praying in her heart, hoping that the next step would be to retreat and her eyes would turn into that green grassland again. Unfortunately, her wish came true.

After walking back for dozens of steps, not only did the scenery remain unchanged, there were actually billowing dark clouds gathering toward them above the icy and snowy woods. Nie Linghui said to Gao Ri in despair:

"Don't move. If you move again, the formation's killing array will be triggered. We... are trapped."
