Stone Age Husband Raising Journal

Chapter 179 – Parallel World (10)

After his relationship with Xiong Ye was dissolved, Shi Li had led a hedonistic life of pleasure and indulgence.

However, he knew that Xiong Ye wouldn’t do so.

Xiong Ye was a bit single-minded. He had never looked twice at any other person except for Shi Li.

He had been with Xiong Ye for so many years, but he had never seen Xiong Ye be interested in anyone else.

So, he’d always thought that Xiong Ye would be very sad and haggard over the past few days.

Due to his guilt, he hadn’t dared to face such a Xiong Ye and had kept away from the people of the Big Bear Tribe recently. Even if Yang Su said many bad things about the Big Bear Tribe to him, he hadn’t continued the conversation.

He felt that he couldn’t make it up to Xiong Ye, and since that was the case, he should be the one to give way.

However, what was he looking at now? He was actually seeing Xiong Ye being so close to someone else!

Shi Li instantly felt like he’d been cheated on.

“Big brother, the person beside Xiong Ye is Zhou Ji! Back then, when Xiong Ye brought him back to the Big Bear Tribe, I said a few things, and Hu Yue then drove me out of the Big Bear Tribe!” Yang Su said, “I went to ask around, and I heard that Hu Yue really supports him and Xiong Ye getting together!”

Yang Su was gritting his teeth as he spoke.

He was different from Shi Li. Although Yang Su was a bit lazy when he stayed in the Big Bear Tribe, his feelings for the Big Bear Tribe actually ran very deep.

After all, it was the place he’d grown up in from a small age.

But now, he’d been kicked out...

Yang Su continued, “Big brother, why did you end your relationship with Xiong Ye just like that? In the end, you let Zhou Ji gain all the advantages... Also, the Big Bear Tribe! You’re clearly their tribal chief, so you should go back...” He was hoping that Shi Li would go back and continue to be the tribal chief of the Big Bear Tribe.

Yang Su had spoken these words often recently, but Shi Li hadn’t listened to him before. Now, though, it was inevitable that they would start to sink in.

He’d seen Zhou Ji before and had even argued with Xiong Ye over Zhou Ji. At the time, Xiong Ye had agreed to dissolve their relationship. Could it be that Xiong Ye and that Zhou Ji had been together for a long time?

Shi Li strode towards Xiong Ye.

It had actually been Zhou Ji who had dragged Xiong Ye out to hang out.

As they wandered around, Zhou Ji had gone to pick up some loquat fruits for him to eat.

“I don’t need them. Eat it yourself.” Xiong Ye refused them. These loquats had large pits but not a lot of flesh. He wasn’t very interested.

Seeing that Xiong Ye had refused them, Zhou Ji peeled one and set it against Xiong Ye’s mouth, “Give it a taste. This loquat is very delicious.” He had eaten large loquats on earth, but the ones here were quite small and only about the size of a quail egg. That was annoying enough, but the pits inside were very large, and they were a little sour... However, the loquat he’d picked had been changed by his plant powers and didn’t have any such problems at all. It was definitely delicious!

Zhou Ji could always find him all kinds of delicious things to eat.

Xiong Ye thought about this as Zhou Ji fed him another one.

Xiong Ye spoke, “Zhou Ji, eat it yourself. You don’t have to give it to me.”

“I eat this every year. I’ve eaten a lot of them already.” Zhou Ji laughed and continued, “Later on, there will be plums, peaches, watermelons, and other things. They’re also very tasty.”

“Things at the Beast God Temple are really much better than they are elsewhere.” Xiong Ye couldn’t help saying.

“After all, this is the Beast God Temple.” Zhou Ji replied. While he spoke, he looked over at Shi Li––he’d already discovered Shi Li and ‘heard’ what Yang Su had said to him.

He felt that Shi Li and Yang Su were a little shameless.

“Xiong Ye!” Shi Li strode over to Xiong Ye.

“Shi Li.” Xiong Ye lifted his head to look at Shi Li. He’d thought that he would feel sad when he saw Shi Li again, but unexpectedly, that wasn’t the case. He actually felt calm.

“Xiong Ye, you look like you’re doing pretty well.” Shi Li said. He looked over at Zhou Ji with a judgemental gaze as he spoke.

Zhou Ji smiled at him.

Xiong Ye replied, “Is that right? Many people have been saying that.”

“Xiong Ye, it’s great that you’re not feeling sad over our break up. I was afraid that you would be unhappy before and didn’t dare to come seek you out.” Shi Li continued.

Xiong Ye became a little unhappy when he heard Shi Li’s words and frowned slightly.

Shi Li went on, “Xiong Ye, it’s great that you’ve thought it through, but you should pay attention and not get cheated...”

“I see.” Xiong Ye interrupted Shi Li.

Shi Li was a little unhappy. He became even more unhappy when he was interrupted by Xiong Ye, but he pushed on, “Although we’re now separated, it’s been so many years... We’re still friends, right? Xiong Ye, don’t be so sharp when you’re with me.”

Xiong Ye: “......” He wasn’t being sharp.

Xiong Ye didn’t understand what Shi Li was trying to do, so he simply went ahead and said, “I have something else to do and will leave first.” He didn’t have any feelings for Shi Li now, but to be honest, he didn’t really want to have to deal with him either.

“Xiong Ye, why are you in such a hurry to leave? Is it because you feel guilty? You and my big brother hadn’t even separated yet, but you already to together with Zhou Ji, right? You betrayed my brother...” Yang Su jumped in.

Yang Su’s words weren’t finished when Xiong Ye’s energy stretched out to press against Yang Su.

Yang Su had always made trouble for him. He had overlooked it before due to his relationship with Shi Li, but he was now no longer willing to be talked to like this.

“What are you doing?” Yang Su trembled and fell onto his butt on the ground.

Xiong Ye was cold and merciless towards Yang Su... Shi Li found it a little difficult to accept this kind of change, and he almost instinctively released his own energy to clash against Xiong Ye’s. “Xiong Ye, what crazy stuff are you trying to pull!”

Xiong Ye didn’t flinch or retreat. He frowned at Shi Li, “Lion Beast King, you should check your brother’s actions and help him understand what can and cannot be said.”

At this time, Yang Su was already unable to speak. Shi Li met Xiong Ye’s eyes and suddenly felt furious.

Shi Li, who had still been able to hold back a bit before, could no longer control himself, “Xiong Ye, you’re so protective of this Zhou Ji. Are others not allowed to say anything about him?”

Xiong Ye: “......” It had clearly been Yang Su framing him just now. What did this have to do with Zhou Ji?

“Or is it that he hit the nail on the head, and you’re now embarrassed and angry?” Shi Li continued.

“Lion Beast King, did you come to make trouble because you want to fight me?” Xiong Ye asked.

“You want to fight me?” Shi Li grew even more furious. “Xiong Ye, I really misjudged you! Not only did you hook up with this Zhou Ji even before we separated, you’re now also refusing to acknowledge us?!”

Xiong Ye: “......”

“Do you really think he likes you? It’s all because of your position and strength!” Shi Li said.

Xiong Ye looked helplessly at Shi Li, “What exactly are you trying to say? Aren’t the people around you also aiming for you because of your position and strength?”

Shi Li froze.

Zhou Ji finally couldn’t hold back his laughter.

Zhou Ji could generally guess at what Shi Li was thinking now.

If he thought of Shi Li as an old upstart from Earth, his style of conduct would make sense.

This kind of person could cheat on his wife, but he would never be willing to accept it if his wife cheated on him.

He’d come to find Xiong Ye and spoken such strange things today. There was no doubt that it was because he couldn’t bear to see Xiong Ye living well.

Shi Li’s expression turned cold when he heard Zhou Ji’s laugher. He subconsciously increased the pressure of his energy and even sent it towards Zhou Ji.

Zhou Ji hid behind Xiong Ye, and Xiong Ye protected him. “Shi Li, what exactly are you trying to do?”

“Lion Beast King! Please stop!” The voice of the High Priest rang out. The High Priest, who had specially headed over after learning that His Majesty the Beast God and Xiong Ye had gone out together, noticed that Shi Li wanted to attack the Beast God and was almost beside himself with anger.

Xiong Ye and Shi Li both stopped when they heard the High Priest’s voice.

The High Priest then said, “Lion Beast King, how could you casually attack people?”

“It was Xiong Ye who attacked people first!” Shi Li said.

“Even if that’s the case, you shouldn’t attack... an ordinary person!” The High Priest went on.

“It was Xiong Ye who attacked my brother first.” Shi Li replied.

The High Priest felt somewhat embarrassed. At this time, Zhou Ji spoke up, “High Priest, they were the ones who stopped us, and Xiong Ye only made a move after Shi Li’s younger brother spoke rudely to Xiong Ye!”

The High Priest immediately looked at Shi Li when he heard this, “Lion Beast King, what else do you have to say?”

Shi Li’s expression was very ugly to look at.

The High Priest was obviously on Xiong Ye’s side that day and was being very impolite to Shi Li, who’d originally felt that he was beloved by the Beast God Temple. This was a great blow to Shi Li.

Fortunately, the High Priest didn’t say much else––he spoke with Xiong Ye about the Big Bear Tribe’s territory and ignored Shi Li.

Shi Li couldn’t help but grit his teeth as he watched Xiong Ye and the High Priest walk off.

Xiong Ye didn’t think about it as much as Shi Li. When the High Priest came over to talk to him, he spoke with the High Priest about the Big Bear Tribe’s future.

“If you want your tribe to develop and become better, knowledge is very important. You should let the people of your tribe learn more...” The High Priest tried to trick Xiong Ye into staying.

Xiong Ye fell into deep thought.

Over the next few days, Xiong Ye’s life continued as usual, but Shi Li’s life didn’t go as smoothly.

The High Priest had felt sympathy for Shi Li previously and had given him some benefits, but he didn’t give him any of those now.

Additionally... Many tribes had gone back, and there was nobody praising and servicing Shi Li anymore. Shi Li was very unaccustomed to this.

Xiong Ye on the other hand... everyone could see that the Beast God Temple placed a lot of importance on Xiong Ye.

All of this left Shi Li extremely dissatisfied.

So, when he happened to see Zhou Ji on his own, he directly made a move.

Zhou Ji was someone who should’ve died a long time ago in the Elephant Tribe... He might as well just kill him now!

Shi Li had killed many people over the years. When it came to killing an ordinary person... He didn’t take it seriously at all.
