The Emperor Reigns Them All - Chapter 485
Chapter 485 I Can’t Do That
Although the fierce beasts didn’t have spiritual intelligence, ordinary wolves could communicate with each other. Somehow, this big gray wolf, which seemed to be the wolf king, was interested in him—or it was more likely that it suspected him, so it stood in the way and inquired.
Li Ye almost wanted to die. “How could I know what you meant?”
He turned to glare at Wei Weiwu with deep resentment in his heart. “Why is your dog gray? Are there huskies in the demon clan? Now this stupid wolf regards me as one of its own kind. Tell me what to do!”
Wei Weiwu looked innocent.
The big gray wolf seemed to be anxious. “Howl, howl, howl?”
Li Ye laughed helplessly in his heart. “Why are there a pause and a rhythm? Should I dance in response?”
He looked back at Qi Potian and the others and wondered if anyone could understand the big gray wolf’s cry and translate it for him, but he found that they all looked blank.
“To tell you the truth, although we used to be animals, we were different kinds, after all. We don’t know what its rhythmic howl means.”
Li Ye felt a sharp pain in his teeth. There was no demon wolf in the team.
Li Ye was very uncomfortable. While the big gray wolf was howling, the nearby war wolves all stood up and looked at Li Ye with doubts. The wolves in front were approaching.
The big gray wolf began to urge him again. “Howl, howl?”
Li Ye thought for a moment. Then he looked up at the big gray wolf seriously. He opened his mouth and said, “Woof?”
The big gray wolf remained silent.
Li Ye was speechless.
Li Ye felt that he needed to respond. After all, they were deep into the fierce beasts now. If they were besieged, they would definitely die. Their plan would fail, and he didn’t know whether they could escape.
But when Li Ye heard the two woofs, he was stunned. He guaranteed with his dignity and personality that he didn’t want to bark like a dog. He wanted to say something like “Get out of my way, all of you.” But when he spoke, his sound became like that.
Li Ye didn’t give up and decided to reorganize his words. He wanted to tell the big gray wolf that he was not its relative or its kind and ask it to get out of the way, so he said, “Woof woof woof!”
The big gray wolf, “???”
The big gray wolf was confused and didn’t understand what Li Ye was talking about.
Li Ye almost bit his tongue. He looked back and stared at Wei Weiwu. “You bastard. What kind of fucking technique are you using? Why can’t I speak?”
Qi Potian, Li Jian, and the other cultivators covered their faces with their claws, looking like they couldn’t bear to look directly at Li Ye. Li Ye was their leader, but he began to bark like a dog under the “threat” of the big gray wolf.
The big gray wolf no longer stood like a person but got down on all fours and began to bare its teeth toward Li Ye with a growl in his throat. Besides him, the surrounding war wolves were ready to fight.
Li Ye was sad in his heart. “It was a bad day. I disguised as a fierce beast, but I was seen through so quickly by a group of fucking wolves. Who the hell is an intelligent creature?”
It seemed that the plan had failed and that a big battle was inevitable. Li Ye bared his teeth and motioned Wei Weiwu and the other cultivators to be ready to fight and rush out first. Li Ye said, “Woof!”
“I’m Prince An of the Tang Empire. I’ve comprehended the third realm of the Way of Emperor. I’m a Great Cultivator who can defeat a cultivator in the Real Immortal Realm. But now I’m barking like a dog. What about my dignity?”
As expected, the big gray wolf’s eyes were red, and the other wolves were about to rush over. Seeing the bad situation, the sparrow flapped its wings, ready to escape.
But at this moment, a little squirrel jumped in front of Li Ye and opened its arms to block him behind. It looked at the big gray wolf firmly. “Squeak!”
Li Ye didn’t know what to say.
“Miss Hong Xiu, are you so righteous and not afraid of death?”
When he was about to push Hong Xiu away, the big gray wolf cried doubtfully, “Howl, howl?”
The little squirrel looked serious. “Squeak!”
The big gray wolf looked thoughtful. “Howl?”
Hong Xiu was serious. “Squeak, squeak!”
The big gray wolf nodded. “Howl.”
Hong Xiu also nodded. “Squeak.”
Li Ye was speechless.
The sparrow, Wei Weiwu, Qi Potian, Li Jian, and the others were also speechless.Access Novel Time Z
“It seems that they are communicating. But you’re not from the same species! It’s cross-species communication. Do you pretend to understand each other, like a blind cat killing the mouse, right? Do you learn each other’s language? The eighth level of wolf’s language? The tenth level of squirrel’s language?”
Then the little squirrel looked back. Hong Xiu’s voice sounded in Li Ye’s consciousness. “Your Highness, I told it that you were not a wolf but a dog, but that stupid wolf didn’t believe it. It also suspected that you were a cultivator, but not a real dog, because there are no dogs in the fierce beasts. Your Highness, don’t worry. I’ve told it that you are a dog… Your Highness, I’m not scolding you… Do you understand what I mean?”
Li Ye almost burst into tears. “What the fuck, I certainly understand.”
Li Ye had no time to wonder why Hong Xiu could communicate with it. He immediately responded to her through the sound transmission technique. “Then ask him to get out of the way. We still have a task to do!”
“Yes, Your Highness!” Hong Xiu was very happy that she finally had a chance to perform.
She turned around and looked at the big gray wolf seriously again. “Squeak, squeak!”
The big gray wolf looked thoughtful. “Howl!”
The little squirrel bared its teeth and waved its claws angrily. “Squeak!”
The big gray wolf looked solemn. “Howl!”
The little squirrel was deflated. “Squeak.”
While Hong Xiu and the big gray wolf were busy communicating with each other, Li Ye, Wei Weiwu, and the others looked at each other and felt very magical. At this moment, Li Ye deeply realized that there was no end to learning in this big world.
It seemed very wise to bring Hong Xiu together. She could communicate with the fierce beasts, so Li Ye and the others wouldn’t be exposed, and it wouldn’t be difficult to pass the area of wolves. Li Ye felt that the prospect was bright. With Hong Xiu around, it wouldn’t be difficult to sneak into the central area.
With their intelligence, as long as they could communicate with the fierce beasts, it would be easy to deceive them. They could make a monkey out of the fierce beasts with a few tricks, and they could make a lot of chances, at least.
Before Li Ye figured out how to praise Hong Xiu later, Hong Xiu looked back with her head low. She gesticulated with her short hands, looking very distressed, helpless, and sad.
Li Ye’s heart jolted. His intuition told him that something was wrong. “What did the big gray wolf say to Hong Xiu so that she couldn’t even speak fluently?” Li Ye quickly asked, “What did the big gray wolf say?”
Hong Xiu sadly said, “That stupid wolf wanted to test you to prove that you’re a dog.”
Li Ye asked in confusion, “How to prove that?”
When he was on the earth, someone asked him to prove that he was himself. At that time, he felt that it was bullshit. But now he was asked to prove that he was a dog. In comparison, the former was more acceptable.
Hong Xiu raised her head and said decisively, “Your Highness, let’s kill them!”
Li Ye said seriously, “No, you have to believe me!”
He thought that the big gray wolf must give Hong Xiu a problem that she thought that he couldn’t do it, so she would think like that. But Li Ye thought that he could pass the test, no matter what the big gray wolf’s problem was.
“Are you kidding? We human beings are intelligent. I have lived two lives, and now I’m Prince An of the Tang Empire. I’m the most intelligent among the intelligent creatures. I’ve seen all kinds of strong wind and big waves. How will I be stumped by a stupid wolf?”
“To say the least, I’ve already barked like a dog, so nothing will be more humiliating than that.”
Han Xin could bear the humiliation of crawling between another’s legs. In Li Ye’s opinion, for the victory of the team and the big plan to attack Macaque Mountain with thousands of troops, even if he had to crawl between the big gray wolf’s legs, he would do that.
Anyway, he would kill that stupid wolf in less than half a day.
Hong Xiu’s voice was complicated. “But you will sacrifice a lot!”
Li Ye said righteously, “If I don’t sacrifice, I won’t achieve the great cause! Don’t worry. No matter how difficult it is, I can overcome it!”
Hong Xiu sighed and turned to say to the big gray wolf.
The big gray wolf responded and felt a little excited.Updates by Novel Time Z
As Li Ye watched with expectation, the big gray wolf turned its ass toward them.
Then, a big piece of fresh shit appeared in front of Li Ye. Because the big gray wolf was huge, so the shit was probably dozens of kilograms.
Li Ye suddenly realized what the so-called problem was. His whole body froze there.
After shitting, the big gray wolf turned around and sat on the ground, looking straight at Li Ye expectantly. There was a smile on its mouth?
Hong Xiu’s voice was full of sadness and sympathy. “The stupid wolf said that a wolf would travel 500 kilometers to eat meat, while a dog would travel 500 kilometers to eat shit. A dog can’t change its nature of eating shit, so to test if you are a real dog…”
Li Ye opened his eyes as wide as copper bells, and the hair on his body stood on end. At this moment, his mind was in a mess. “What the fuck?!”
“This stupid wolf wants me to eat shit?”
“The shit that it’s pulling out now?”
“It’s a big piece?!”
“Fuck you!”
Li Ye turned and left!
“Screw the big plan of the demon clan. Screw the attack to Macaque Mountain. Screw Han Xin’s humiliation. Screw the great cause with sacrifice!”
“I can’t do that!”
“Compared to this, barking like a dog is nothing.”
“I can bark a hundred times!”
Li Ye burst into tears. “Who said that the intelligent creatures could overwhelm the fierce beasts?” He was overwhelmed by a stupid wolf’s intelligence today!
The sparrow laughed so hard that it fell to the ground again. It covered its belly with its wings and rolled on the ground.
Li Ye looked back, motioning Wei Weiwu and the others to take action.
He would rather not carry out the plan today. At worst, he could lead the team to attack forcibly. He could be killed but not be humiliated. He had never been wronged like this in his two lives! Facing the hot shit, he lost his reason and burned with anger. He ordered in a fierce and cruel tone, “Woof woof woof!”
Hearing Li Ye’s words, Wei Weiwu and the other cultivators couldn’t help laughing, though they were full of anger and sympathy for Li Ye in their hearts—the mood and the sound were too incompatible.
When the cultivators were ready to fight, the sparrow got up and hugged Li Ye’s leg. It tried to hold back its laughter, but its shoulders and wings were still shaking. It secretly transmitted its voice to Li Ye. “Your Highness, don’t panic. It’s not a dead end yet. I have an idea!”
Li Ye stared at it fiercely. Seeing it gloating, he wished to pluck out all its feathers. “What’s your idea?”
The sparrow immediately said, “The big gray wolf made a mistake. There is something wrong with the way of testing if you’re a dog, so we can refute it! Your Highness, think about it. It’s true that a dog can’t change its nature of eating shit, but dogs only eat people’s shit. Have you ever seen that they eat other animals’ shit?”
Li Ye took a deep breath and pressed the sparrow to the ground. “Is this your idea? Do you want me to eat people’s shit? Is people’s shit not shit?!”
Li Ye really wanted to stew the sparrow now and turn it into a piece of shit tomorrow!
The sparrow stood stunned there, and it was suddenly enlightened. It said, “You’re right…”
