Talisman Emperor
Chapter 688 Receiving Clan Control
On the ground, 39 bone eagles and a Black Cerberus were all dead.
All the youths and youngsters of the tribe cheered in unison after seeing this scene, and they were overjoyed with the happiness written all over their faces.
In their eyes, these savage beasts were piles of food, the greatest guarantee for their survival, and that meant that they would not have to worry about starving for a very long period of time.
Xiao Yan stood at the side while his petite face was covered in pride as he felt extremely proud of being able to make such a huge contribution to the clan. Unfortunately, Big Brother Chen Xi did not come, so he was unable to share my happiness …
Xiao Yan was a little displeased when he thought of getting here.
For these past few days, he had been taking care of Chen Xi who was bedridden all day and night. On one hand, it was due to the instructions from the priest, and on the other, it was because he was happy to talk to Chen Xi.
He had known many things that he did not know in the past from Chen Xi, and it was as if he opened the door for her, whereas on the other side of the door was a sparkling world, a sparkling one, fascinating, and amazing.it is very interesting and very novel.
Coupled with Chen Xi who treated him well and had a warm demeanor, it allowed him to experience the feeling of being cared for. So he subconsciously considered Chen Xi to be his good friend.
Meng Wei's figure was firm and strong, yet her movements were extremely fast. He ran like a cheetah along a unique and profound rhythm, and he quickly flashed past all the corpses on the ground.
A wisp of surprise suddenly appeared on his rough and wide forehead. "I checked it out. They all died because their souls were destroyed with just one strike. This shows that the Divine Sense cultivation of the person who did this was extremely great, and it was many times greater than you and me! ”
Mo Ya was stunned, and then she said in astonishment, "Attack of Divine Sense? If that was true, wouldn't that mean a top expert appeared around him? "
Meng Wei nodded, and then she said abruptly, "Do you think ..that's Chen Xi's brother?"
"Him?" Mo Ya was stunned, and then she said in disdain, "How could she support such a huge Divine Sense with her weak body? I more believe it was done by the experts of the Xeno race because there was no way it was him! "
"Mo Ya!" Meng Wei's brows fused suddenly as a wisp of anger appeared on her dignified face, and her expression even revealed a trace of hatred as she scolded in a low voice. "I told you, don't mention the word Xeno-race anymore!"
Mo Ya pursed her lips and fell silent as she could understand Meng Wei's feelings, and she couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
Meng Wei took a deep breath, causing her expression to return to normal before she glanced at Mo Ya, and then she said as she gestured with her hand, "Alright, pack some food and return to the camp."
As he spoke, he began directing the small people to transport the corpses of the bone eagles, whereas he carried the large Black Cerberus like a cow alone.
…
Smoke curled up from the camp, and it quickly smelled the tantalizing aroma of meat.
Adults and children sat cross-legged on the ground holding and eating a piece of golden-yellow roasted meat. The atmosphere was very crowded, and everyone's faces were covered by a wisp of happiness that was impossible to hide.
Their profit this time was huge without a doubt. Several dozens of eagle bones and Black Cerberus were enough for them to eat for a very long time, and this meant they would temporarily not have to worry about starving.
Along the way here, they stored everything they could, and they were not even willing to throw away the beast bones as they expected nothing more than to boil them into a few bone soup pots. Now, they had suddenly gotten a fancy meal, so they naturally had to eat freely and reward their stomachs.
Amidst this bustling atmosphere, the beast skin tent belonging to the Lord Priest suddenly opened from within, and a thin and skinny old man walked out intermittently.
Swooshes!
In just an instant after they saw this old man, the lively and boisterous atmosphere in the campground instantly disappeared without a trace, and it became extremely silent. Every gaze that looked towards the old man was filled with respect and reverence.
Similarly, they were a little surprised. After all, throughout the journey during this journey, Lord Priest had never stepped out of his beast skin tent, yet he was actually out in person now. Could something have happened?
Soon, they vaguely understood. Because they saw that guest, Chen Xi, was following closely behind Lord Priest, and they guessed that the appearance of Lord Priest might be related to this person.
The old man walked to the camp. Although he was thin like a dry branch, yet he had a tall figure and heavy bearing, and he naturally carried the mighty aura of a person in a high position. His muddy gaze swept across everyone around him before he said in a hoarse voice, “I came out this time just to announce one thing. That from tomorrow onwards, Chen Xi will be in charge of all the affairs of our tribe. Mo Ya and Meng Wei also had to obey Chen Xi's orders. Does everyone hear me clearly? "
Whahuh? This outsider will take the position of Tribal Chief in the future?
Everyone was dumbfounded, and they barely dared to believe their ears.
This is too absurd! He's a sickly person who was seriously injured and almost lost his life, an outsider who was just taken by our tribe, what ability does he have to become our Chieftain?
Meng Wei's face became gloomy as well, and she frowned endlessly. He also never expected and could not understand why the Lord Priest whom he respected like a god in his heart suddenly announced such a thing at this moment.
Could it be that the Pastor of God is not happy with me as the Chief of the Tribe?
Meng Wei's eyebrows unite and form the character shape ‘ ⁇ ’. Even with his open-minded nature, for a while he was unable to accept the scene before his eyes.
What if an accident were to happen, it would be a great disaster!
After all, as they left their ancestral lands and began the journey, they lost too many clans along the way, he said, and it could be said that all of them could arrive here safely after paying the soul and blood costs of their clansmen who had sacrificed themselves.
Could this outsider, Chen Xi, bear such a heavy burden?
Right at this moment, Mo Ya spoke up abruptly. "Lord Priest, I disagree."
The old man's snow-white eyebrows coalesced, and then he said nonchalantly, "Mo Yes, are you questioning my authority?" His hoarse and low voice carried a trace of displeasure.
Mo Ya's entire body stiffened before she gritted her teeth and knelt on the ground. "Lord Priest, Mo Ya didn't question you. But our Ninth Hell Clan has experienced great danger and hardship and sacrificed many people to gain our current peace. Now, outsiders will meddle in the affairs of our clan, I. ...it is very difficult for me to accept this in my heart. "
Thumping! Thumping!
The other clans knelt on the ground as well, and they said in unison, "Lord Priest, please reconsider."
Among the people present, only Meng Wei and Xiao Yan did not kneel. Xiao Yan pursed his lips and was a little confused as to what to do, and he did not know whether he should support his clan or support this new good friend he made.
On the other hand, Mo Ya stared fixedly at Chen Xi from start to finish. His gaze was horrifying as if he was scanning his prey and wanted to see everything about Chen Xi.
But in a short time, he failed. Chen Xi's gaze was warm, calm, and deep like a boundless starry sky, and it caused her to be unable to discern anything about Chen Xi.
"I've made up my mind, you all don't have to keep trying to persuade me!" The old man's attitude was very firm, and he said in a hoarse voice, "I can only tell all of you that If you want to leave this place, Ninth Hell, I can only tell you, that being said had no way out, then only Chen Xi could reach it! "
What's up!?
Everyone is surprised. Although they knew the Pastor of God attached great importance to this outsider, yet they never imagined that it would be such. He had only placed the hopes of their clan onto Chen Xi!
"If it's really like that, then I agree!" Meng Wei spoke suddenly, and she did not look at Chen Xi but said in a deep voice, "But I have to make something clear. If he dares to do something that harms my clan, then I, Meng Wei, will kill him even if I have to give up my life! "
Chen Xi was stunned, yet he was able to understand Meng Wei's thoughts as he would definitely do the same at Meng Wei's place. After all, Meng Wei was sincerely thinking about the life and safety of her clan.
Just this caused Chen Xi to be unable to get angry at Meng Wei, and she only smiled bitterly when she saw the old man by her side. To be honest, he would not interfere in this if he had a choice because not only would he not be considered a good person, it would instead cause public outrage. Who faces such a problem?
The old man's eyes narrowed before he smiled and shook his head at Chen Xi to show that Chen Xi should not remember him.
"Okay, I agree too!" Mo Ya noticed that Lord Priest's demeanor was firm, and she knew she couldn't change it, so she gritted her teeth and immediately said, "But just like Meng Wei, she's, as long as this outsider shows a slight sign of having ill intentions towards my clan, then I will definitely make him regret being born! "
Chen Xi was stunned once again, and then she sighed deeply in her heart but said nothing. After all, his life was saved by this simple yet unyielding Ninth Hell clan, so how could he be angry towards the people who had saved his life?
When they saw Meng Wei and Mo Ya agree, the others glanced at each other before choosing to obey Lord Priest's orders.
"Alright, Chen Xi, I will entrust the rest to you. As for Mo Ya and Meng Wei, the two of you come with me because I have something to tell you both. "As soon as the old man finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards his tent.
…
After the Priestess, Mo Ya, and Meng Wei left, Chen Xi wisely chose to return to her residence first.
Although these members of the Ninth Hell tribe openly showed obedience, the conflicting feelings in their hearts were not something that could be eliminated in a short period of time.
So talking to them at this moment would only invite dislike.
But before he left, Chen Xi still gave one instruction. At dawn tomorrow, he wanted the children and teenagers to come together, and he would replace Meng Wei in teaching and guiding them in their training.
But these words attracted the angry gazes and cold snort of a group of young men. Compared to those adults, the youths who were around 11 or 12 years old were not skilled at hiding their feelings. Just like now, they were staring at Chen Xi as if they were looking at a ferocious beast, and it was filled with dense hostility.
Only Xiao Yan who was around eight or nine years old stood up and cheered, and he became the only child among all those present who greeted Chen Xi.
But within a short period of time, he felt the vagaries of the surrounding atmosphere and numerous angry gazes darting towards him, and this caused him to feel uneasy before finally sitting timidly.
She pursed her tiny lips, and then she muttered with annoyance and embarrassment. "Once you all know how interesting the stories Big Brother tells you, you all will definitely not treat him like this!"
Chen Xi who had just entered the tent staggered and almost fell to the ground when she heard these words, and she did not know whether to laugh or cry. Could it be that in the little girl's heart, I am just an existence who knows how to tell stories ?!
