The burly man glared hatefully at the girl: "You sinners, instead of properly atoning all day and praying for the gods' forgiveness, you even dare to try to steal our food?"

The girl cried out, "Consider it as you lending me your nutrient paste, I'll return it to you when I grow up!"

Another burly man said, "Who the hell would return things after they grow up, do you take us for fools?"

The girl suddenly pointed behind the burly man and shouted, "It's the god!"

The burly man looked shocked and glanced behind the girl: "The god really came!"

The girl spat: "You think you can deceive me with that?"

The burly man snorted coldly: "Just messing with you, haven't you always been trying to cheat us?"

As the burly man held her down to the ground, his knife seeming to target her, cold sweat dripped from her forehead.

'Am I going to die here?'

'But if I die, I can finally rest forever, no longer having to struggle like this every day.'

Thinking this, the girl suddenly felt somewhat relaxed.

At the next moment, there was a pattering sound, the three burly men simultaneously fell to the ground, and a strange voice came through, speaking a language that the girl couldn't understand.

The girl quickly turned her head and saw a figure slowly descending from the sky, speaking bizarre words as he looked at her.

"Holy shit, the god really came?"

Seeing this scene, the girl was both shocked and scared, kneeling on the ground, trembling unceasingly.

The figure descending from the sky was surprisingly Zhou Bai. He looked at the girl who was trembling all over, speaking nonstop gibberish, and revealed a helpless expression.

"What she says sounds a bit incomprehensible, it doesn't seem to be English, rather like some kind of dialect." Zhou Bai touched his chin, "Has the language transformed due to the passage of time?"

Christina said, "This little girl seems to be very afraid of you."

Zhou Bai said, "The Heavenly Demon didn't pass down his techniques to them, maybe she mistook me for a god."

He looked at the girl again, noticing her dark skin, frail figure, and the short clothes and shorts made from the packaging of nutrient paste.

He also glanced at the tattered clothes on the other three burly men.

'Nutrient paste delivered daily, hence plenty of packaging available, might as well use it to make clothes?'

A slight sweep of Primordial Spirit power restored the original appearance of these clothes, seemingly some kind of white uniform. Zhou Bai guessed it might have been worn by the subjects during the Heavenly Demon's experiments, now perhaps the only clothes available for humans here.

"The level of civilization here seems very low."

Zhou Bai looked up at the artificial sky and the barren land underfoot, shaking his head, "The Heavenly Demon didn't give them anything but food and drink, not even a blade of grass; these guys can't develop at all; the only resource is nutrient paste."

Zhou Bai then started trying to use Primordial Spirit power to communicate with the girl, quickly learning her language thanks to his current cultivation, realm, memory, and thinking ability.

Zhou Bai looked at the girl, thinking to himself: 'This should be a dialect developed on the basis of Chinese, with many errors and changes possibly arising from environmental changes and wrong inheritances.'

The girl looked at Zhou Bai, thinking: 'This guy looks silly and can't speak fluently, maybe I can trick him into helping me beat the 'Sated Gang' and rescue my sister?'

The girl looked at Zhou Bai with a face of innocence and said, "Who are you? Are you a god? Have you come to save us?"

Seeing the girl's innocent look and her on the verge of tears expression, Zhou Bai comforted, "You can call me Zhou Bai. I'm not a god, just a very handsome man. I'm here to rule over your world."

The girl immediately said, "Great! Not far from here, there's a gang called the 'Sated Gang'. The gang is filled with old, weak, sick, and disabled and has consumed a lot of divine food. This is a perfect opportunity for you to rob them and accumulate for your unifying empire!"

Zhou Bai frowned and looked at her, "Why do I feel like you're trying to fool me?"

The girl immediately knelt down again, pleading desperately, "Spare me, great deity! I'm telling the absolute truth, not a word is false! I still have more than a dozen kids at home waiting for my care; if you want to kill me, at least let me go back to feed them once more."

Zhou Bai looked at the girl in front of him, finding her peculiarly strange, 'This place supposedly has a very low level of civilization, yet how is this little devil so cunning?'

Christina laughed, "Zhou Bai, don't you think this little girl is a lot like you? Equally shameless, equally bold, daring to lie and deceive."

Zhou Bai snorted coldly, "I'm not as foolish as her."

Zhou Bai then asked the girl to introduce herself, and this time she spoke honestly, claiming to be called A'zhu and identifying as a sinner.

Zhou Bai curiously asked, "What is a sinner?"

From A'zhu's explanation, Zhou Bai learned that there are two types of people in this world: sinners and good citizens.

Sinners are so because they once angered the gods, so both they and their descendants are sinners, essential to serve good citizens day and night and must rely on good citizens to distribute divine food.

The so-called divine food is the food granted by the gods to the good citizens, which sinners can only consume once allocated by the good citizens.

After A'zhu finished speaking, she frequently glanced at the nutrient paste on the ground, as if fearing that Zhou Bai would notice.

Zhou Bai shrugged, and directly said, "If you want to eat, just eat. I'm not interested in this."

Hearing this, A'zhu immediately grabbed the nutrient paste, tore open the packaging, and wolfed down one piece while carefully saving the other, seemingly intending to give it to someone else.

Zhou Bai couldn't be bothered to think further; he planned to simply conquer this place by force and quickly investigate the situation with his cultivation.

No matter if he could rule the Heavenly Demon through conquering mankind here, he did not intend to allow the humans here to continue living such a primitive life.

So Zhou Bai straightforwardly said, "Wherever your people are gathered, lead me there." He finished speaking, directly grabbed A'zhu, leaping into the sky, looking down over the land.

Grabbed and lifted, A'zhu screamed in fear, hugging Zhou Bai tightly.

But the girl's adaptability was incredibly strong; even before Zhou Bai could comfort her, she seemed to have fully adapted to high-altitude flying. After calling out a few times, she pointed to a building below, "There! There!"

Zhou Bai nodded, his figure moved, already descending to the location A'zhu pointed out.

Alongside the gust of wind brought over by him, the houses and roofs on the ground were directly blown away.

Zhou Bai paused in surprise to discover that the houses here were actually constructed using the plastic packaging of nutrient paste.

'Come to think of it, almost nothing else exists in this experimental area; the nutrient paste delivered daily instead becomes the sole renewable resource.'

'The packaging of nutrient paste has become a valuable material for these people, used to make clothes, houses, and furniture.'

'The weather in this area is controlled by the Heavenly Demon; it's clear skies all year round, presumably with no storms or rainfall, so such houses suffice.'

With thoughts and analysis completed in an instant, yet such structures were obviously unsteady; with one blow of Zhou Bai's wind, they collapsed easily.

However, as large chunks of buildings were blown down, one building surprisingly stood firm, even in the fierce winds.

Zhou Bai was startled, examined it closely, and almost couldn't help but swear.
