Unfortunate Hero's Retirement Life

Heero entered the Purple Mountain territory with ease. He thought everything would go smoothly as he planned.

Swish!

Before Heero could take the third step, an arrow whistled through the air and landed right in front of Heero. It was a warning.

Heero stopped his steps and looked up. He looked at where the arrow came from.

In a thick branch of a tree, a woman with purple-clad stood with a bow in her hand and an arrow nocked on.

If Heero took another step, she would shoot the arrow to immobilize Heero.

"Haven't I told you? You shall not trespass into our territory, Purple Mountain!" The woman spoke in Dramonia Language.

"I am sorry, but can we have a friendly talk? This matter is related to your people as well and I hope we can have a proper discussion, " Heero replied in a fluent Dramonia Language.

"He's truly coming from the dungeon as well…" Elazaro Tania muttered in a low voice as she watched the conversation from behind.

"But how did he learn our language while this woman does not understand us?"

There were so many mysteries around the man. Unfortunately, Tania did not dare to uncover the mysteries as she recalled last night's battle.

Even Hong Yu and Han Ying were surprised. They could not help but have the same thought as Elazaro Tania.

*** ***

"What do you want to discuss!? And identify yourself!" The woman in purple-clad relented.

She was willing to listen to what Heero wanted to say. The reason was that Heero spoke Dramonia Language fluently, making him less

suspicious than the man who came earlier.

But of course, she did not let her guard down. She still had her bow aimed at Heero while speaking.

"My name is Xing Heero, Saint's disciple! I want to talk regarding the specter, " Heero replied as he revealed his identity.

As for the people who came with him, only Musashi Hirata understood what Heero's talked about.

"Saint's disciple?" He muttered in wonder. Heero was already too strong for him, then what about his Master's Master?

It was hard to imagine how strong Saint was while he could not even see his Master's limit.

"What are they talking about? Tell me! Tell me!" Musashi Noboru and his two brothers stuck next to Hirata.

Musashi Hirata shook his head, "I don't know, they spoke too fast,"

The woman in purple-clad fell silent right after Heero revealed his identity. The atmosphere around them turned unusually quiet.

After a momentary silence, the woman opened her mouth in a sneer, "Before you lied by saying you are from Hero Guild. Now, you even dare to impersonate Saint's disciple!"

In her words, she raised his voice, anger could be felt from her voice.

"Death is your just punishment! Your remnant will be offered to the Mountain God, daring to impersonate as Saint's disciple!"

After that, the woman released the arrow. At the same time, she shot her arrow, hundreds of arrows followed afterward. Hundreds of arrows from different directions raining down at Heero.

"We have to help!" Bai Xin Yue's reaction was faster than everyone.

She wanted to rush over to help but Musashi Hirata held her back.

"What are you doing, we should help him!"

"You are underestimating Master too much! Just stay here and watch it! Don't be a hindrance to Master's plan!"

Musashi Hirata trusted his Master, he would not die in the face of thousands of arrows, let alone a few hundred arrows.

Heero was a little surprised, but not so much. He expected such a thing would happen.

Shoosh! Shoosh! Shoosh!

The arrows rained down Heero's original spot, but the man vanished.

The woman in purple-clad scanned the surroundings, searching for Heero. But her research was to no avail.

But then, her eyes landed on the group that was not far from the border. Just as she was about to motion her hand to capture the group, a voice was heard from her side.

"It's enough! I don't want to fight you guys!"

The woman in purple-clad turned toward the voice. The vanishing man appeared next to her with an exquisite bow in his hand.

The purple-colored now was a longbow with a familiar engraving to her. Her eyes turned sharp and she scanned the longbow with familiar engraving.

The symbol she would never forget was engraved at the bow, Purple Mountain Tribe symbol. On top of that, there was another engraving next to her tribe symbol. A mark left behind by the longbow's maker, her ancestor's mark.

From the story, she heard from the elder in her tribe, there were two similar longbows. One was kept in her tribe Ancestral Temple and another one was given to the tribe benefactor. The benefactor who saved her tribe from annihilation and taught them how to fight.

As for why Heero had the longbow. It was a gift from his master, so he stored it in his space storage.

Heero threw the longbow to the woman and said, "Take it to your chief or elders! Tell them, I have come!"

The woman in purple-clad caught the longbow. She caressed the longbow with her eyes closed. She was engrossed by the feeling.

Realizing the longbow in her hand was the real deal, the woman nodded her head at Heero. She signaled her people to stop the attack.

"I will deliver the bow to the Chief. Please wait here, " The woman in purple-clad said in a polite tone.

She turned around, but then she stopped halfway before she turned back toward Heero.

The woman bowed her head, "I apologize for the earlier. After I give the bow to the Chief, I will properly apologize to you, "

After that, the woman left. She headed back to her tribe to inform Heero's arrival. This was a big event for her tribe, so she headed back in a hurry.

Meanwhile, Heero regrouped with his group. The Trio Sword Lunatic and the other heroes were waiting for him as well.

Before Musashi Noboru could ask, Park Jin-Soo stepped in first.

"So… Mind telling us what all is this about? You seem very familiar with them? Are you also a human from a dungeon?" Park Jin-Soo delivered a series of questions in a cold tone.

"Does it matter? Where do I come from?" Heero shot a sharp glare at Park Jin-Soo.

The latter flinched and took a step back. He lost his momentum in that instant and his plan failed. He wanted to make the other heroes against Heero with this. However, he did not have the guts to confront Heero head-on.

At this point, everyone already realized Heero's origin. About eighty percent, they believed Heero was also from the dungeon.

"It's a long story, but I will make it short! My Master is these people's benefactor! Who are they? They are Purple Mountain Tribe! They regarded my Master almost as he's their God!"

"Don't be surprised by this. As for our purpose of talking to them, it was not to ask about the dungeon but to make them into our allies to fight the Specter! So mindful of your words…"

"Forget it, you can't offend them as you can't speak with them! What you need to do is just follow me quietly!"

Huo Liang Xun raised his hand after Heero finished.

"Why don't you tell us everything you know about? Are you perhaps hiding something from us?"

"Don't have time for that! They are coming!" Heero pointed at a group that descended from the Purple Mountain.

"Also, please don't mix politics into the mission! Let alone bringing my origin to overthrow me! If you want to take me down from my position, bring proof of my wrongdoings!"

"Keep quiet and follow my order if you want to leave this place alive!"
