Next day, Huo Heng showed up with two big dark panda eyes, looking aggrieved.

But he kept his lips sealed about what happened last night.

Because for someone from Flame Village, it was too embarrassing to talk about!

What Huo Heng didn't expect was that no matter where he went, people around him whispered and pointed at him; after a moment, they burst into laughter.

Once or twice was bearable, but by the third time, and with a group of young people from Flame Village, Huo Heng couldn't take it anymore.

"What are you laughing at?!" Huo Heng rolled up his sleeves and walked over, looking displeased.

"Just two panda eyes, is it that funny?"

Huo Heng couldn't understand.

People from Flame Village were always so combative, and it was common to see people with panda eyes, yet they never laughed like this before.

Unexpectedly, Huo Heng's angry shout not only didn't make the young people from Flame Village calm down, but they also laughed even louder.

One of them walked over, patted Huo Heng on the shoulder, and comforted him:

"Huo Heng, getting knocked out by two women isn't something embarrassing, don't be angry."

Huo Heng heard this and his anger was instantly quenched like being doused with cold water.

"How... how did you know?!" Huo Heng looked at the person in disbelief, "Weren't you passed out like a dead dog by the bonfire last night?"

"Cough cough cough." The young man, called a "dead dog," coughed a few times.

But suddenly he remembered that not only himself, but even Village Chief Huo Lie was like a "dead dog," so he wasn't so embarrassed anymore.

Besides, being drunk was not as embarrassing as getting knocked out by two punches from a woman.

"Naturally, someone told me." The Flame Village youngster winked at Huo Heng.

No matter how much Huo Heng questioned further, the Flame Village youngster just wouldn't say a word more. "Secret, secret, I promised to keep it a secret!"

The whole village was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

Similarly embarrassed like Huo Heng, were Feng Ya and Shui Rou.

Fengbai Village.

Feng Pingcheng found Feng Ya, pulled her aside, and gave her a look of exasperation and sighed heavily. "Tell me, you've tried twice already, how come you still haven't succeeded?"

"What success?" Feng Ya looked bewildered, not catching on immediately.

Feng Pingcheng clapped his hands and glared at her. "Night attack on Lord Han Zhan? What else could it be."

"Failing is one thing, but being so careless that now everyone in the village knows about it."

"You said you wanted to have dozens of children with Lord Han Zhan and would guarantee they wouldn't starve."

"Oh you, oh you."

Feng Pingcheng's words made Feng Ya's face turn bright red immediately.

How could the village chief have known about this!

Her first thought was that Huo Heng hadn't been beaten enough, and dared to spread it around!

"Huo Heng! I'm going to kill you!"

The baby-faced Feng Ya puffed up her cheeks in anger, like a white, plump, round bun.

"Three big buns" rushed out in a flurry.

Water Village.

As the village chief, Shui Rou's prestige and reputation were high in Water Village.

But today, she clearly felt that when people looked at her, aside from respect, there was something else.

At this moment, a woman from Water Village, encouraged and prodded by her husband, finally mustered up the courage to come up to Shui Rou.

"Um... Village Chief Shui Rou... I wanted to ask you about the Water Transformation Technique."

"Water Transformation Technique?" Shui Rou was slightly stunned. "Didn't everyone master that as children? What's left to ask about."

Hearing Shui Rou's words, the female villager from Water Village lowered her head even more.

Glancing sideways, she saw her husband looking encouragingly at her, so she bit her lip and lifted her head to say:

"Not the simple Water Transformation Technique, it's just that, I want to learn from you, Village Chief Shui Rou, some tips on partial water transformation..."

Upon hearing this, Shui Rou's mind buzzed as if struck by lightning.

Tips on partial water transformation?

Wasn't that something I mentioned jokingly last night to compete with Feng Ya? How did this female villager from Water Village know about it!

"Who else knows about this." Shui Rou forced herself to calm her tone, pretending to ask casually.

"The... the whole village knows, everyone is very eager to know, how to... do partial water transformation." The female villager's voice got quieter as she spoke.

"Didn't expect you to be so talented in this area too!"

Hearing this, Shui Rou nearly stumbled.

The whole village knows?!

In her mind quickly appeared two people, one was Huo Heng—she immediately crossed him out in her mind the minute he appeared.

Huo Heng was from Flame Village and valued his reputation the most; he couldn't possibly spread this around.

As for the second person, it was Feng Ya.

This woman, known for her green tea nature, could it be she was the one spreading rumors outside to ruin my reputation?

Thinking of this, Shui Rou executed the Water Concealment Technique, disappearing right in front of the female villager, leaving only her clothes swirling in the air.

It was too embarrassing; she didn't want to show herself!

...

North Sea Coast.

A young handsome man and a towering Mountain Giant stood side by side, gazing into the distance.

At the farthest edge was a blurred piece of land.

"I plan to cross the sea," Han Zhan said, stating his plan, "Village Chief Tu, do you have any idea?"

With a deep, honest voice matching his sturdy build, Tu Housheng shook his head.

"Lord Han Zhan, I am an Earth Awakener, which doesn't do much good in the vast sea of the North Sea."

"However, as the once dominant overlord of North Sea, perhaps the North Sea Profound Turtle can cross it."

North Sea Profound Turtle?

Currently buried in the sea by Fu Xi, but with the villagers from Water Village, they might be able to use Water Transformation Technique to recover it.

It's a good idea.

Han Zhan nodded, suddenly turning to look at the "honest man" Tu Housheng standing next to him.

"Village Chief Tu, when I asked you out for a walk this morning, you seemed to be talking with them about something?"

The "them" Han Zhan referred to included Feng Pingcheng, some young people from Flame Village, and quite a few villagers from Water Village.

They all seemed to be listening with great interest at that time.

"Nothing much, just ordinary conversation; sharing some of my experiences to enhance the relationship between our villages."

Tu Housheng said honestly.

"Yes, indeed, since you were the last to join, getting closer to Fengbai Village and Flame Village involves good communication.","That's very good."

Han Zhan always worried that Tu Housheng, being too honest, wouldn't fit into other groups.

Seeing his active engagement with others made Han Zhan feel gratified.

Just as their conversation ended,

In the distance, suddenly came a scream from Huo Heng, like a pig being slaughtered.

"Not me! I'm innocent! It really wasn't me who said it!"

The straightforward Mountain Giant scratched his head.
