When the tribe leader saw me stand up, she raised her eyebrows and said faintly, "Oh?
How does the God Envoy prove it? "
Looking at her words, it seemed that she had already expected today's events and wasn't surprised that I had stood up.
I reckon that my identity as the God Envoy wouldn't be of much use. With the current situation, there might only be a chance if I lured the Fox King out.
Thinking about that, I smiled at the tribe leader and said, "I'm the envoy sent by the Fox King, so I have full authority to represent the Fox King.
Yaoyao is the Holy Maiden of Qing Qiu Kingdom and not the sacrifice that you mentioned.
Not only that, I also represent the Fox King in supporting Yaoyao to become the next tribe leader. "
After I said that, the High Priestess, who was originally lowering her head, suddenly straightened her body and her eyes were filled with pride.
The tribe leader's face was about to freeze as she glared at me fiercely, as though she wanted to skin me alive.
She clenched her fists so tightly that the veins on her hands were bulging.
At that moment, the evil sacrificial spirit that hadn't made a move by my side lifted her head and looked at her.
The tribe leader might have sensed that the evil sacrificial spirit's power wasn't ordinary and that she wasn't her opponent.
Moreover, I had the identity of the God Envoy. If she were to make a move on me, it would mean that she was rebelling against the Fox King. By then, the Qing Qiu tribe wouldn't be able to tolerate her.
She hesitated for a long while before slowly loosening her fists. She avoided talking about the Fox King and started to make a fuss about me. "There's no way to verify what the God Envoy said.
Furthermore, you have a close relationship with Yaoyao, so you'll definitely side with her at such a crucial moment.
So, can I assume that you're just making up your story? "
I didn't expect that she would still be quibbling.
I didn't give her any face and said coldly, "How dare you! Could it be that you dare to go against the Fox King's orders?"
After hearing what I said, the tribe leader's expression darkened and she pouted. "I don't dare."
After she said that, she immediately pulled herself together and seemed to have thought of something before she continued, "However, since the God Envoy said that it was the Fox King's orders, could the God Envoy please take out the Fox King's order and announce this directly?
Otherwise, what you said previously can only be considered as your side of the story.
Our Qing Qiu tribe has an important mission and the current situation is even more severe, so we definitely can't trust others so easily. "
After listening to him, I couldn't help but feel startled.
I had never heard the sacrificial evil spirit or the high priest mention anything about the Fox King Warrant.
Could it be that she's deliberately trying to make me panic?
I immediately walked toward the sacrificial evil spirit and whispered, "Is it true?"
After getting his confirmation, I looked a little embarrassed.
She then asked him if he had the warrant, but he just shook his head and didn't say anything.
On second thought, perhaps the evil sacrificial spirit had the token on his own body, but his body had been destroyed. At this time, he was only attached to the little zombie, so it was normal that he didn't have the token.
Looking at the High Priest's expectant gaze, it was not difficult to tell that he did not have the warrant on him.
I had thought that I could save the situation by bringing out the Fox King, but I hadn't expected that I would end up smashing my own feet with a rock.
Moreover, she claimed that this was for the Demon Race's mission, which pushed her to an extremely high position. It seemed like it would be very difficult to overthrow her.
At the moment, I couldn't think of a reasonable rebuttal, so I stood rooted to the spot for a long time.
The tribe leader saw that she had the upper hand and that I was speechless, so she hastily chased after me and continued, "Since the God's Envoy can't take out the Fox King Warrant, then the previous words don't count."
After she said that, she looked at me with a smile and continued, "Ever since Yaoyao appeared in our Qing Qiu Kingdom, I realized that the Qing Qiu tribe had reached a moment of life and death.
I didn't expect that she had advanced to the Yang God Celestial Master rank. Our Qing Qiu Kingdom definitely can't tolerate her.
So, before you all came, I had already discussed with the elders to resolve the matter.
However, in consideration of the God's Envoy's reputation, I changed my decision at the last minute. I won't harm Yaoyao's life, but I will use a secret technique to abolish her cultivation and expel her from Qing Qiu Kingdom. She will never be able to step into Qing Qiu Kingdom again. "
At that moment, she was displaying the authority of the tribe leader and didn't allow for any rebuttal.
It was obvious from her words that she didn't want to completely fall out with me.
Of course, I knew that it wasn't because of my identity as the God's Envoy, but because she was afraid of the sacrificial evil spirit around me.
However, I didn't know what the secret technique she was talking about was. If something went wrong during the process, I was afraid that it would be difficult to guarantee Yaoyao's safety.
Thinking about that, I slowly approached the High Priestess and asked about the secret technique that the tribe leader had mentioned.
The High Priestess seemed to know that there was no hope of turning the situation around today, so she sighed and explained to me.
According to him, the secret technique was passed down by the tribe leader of each generation. It was a method used to punish the tribe members.
However, the process was very dangerous, and the person being punished was in extreme pain. It was worse than having their tendons pulled out and bones pulled out.
If one's willpower wasn't strong enough, it was very likely that they would lose their life.
After listening to him, I finally understood what the tribe leader was planning.
She kept saying that she would spare Yaoyao's life for my sake.
However, it seemed that as long as she used some tricks during the process of Yaoyao receiving the ring, Yaoyao would definitely die.
At that time, even if I wanted to cause trouble for her, she could push the blame onto Yaoyao herself and blame her for her lack of willpower.
Previously, I didn't have any hope for peace talks.
After seeing the tribe leader's insistence, my heart wavered in recommending Yaoyao. After all, this matter didn't directly benefit me.
Moreover, Yaoyao didn't have the intention to become the tribe leader. I really couldn't bear to force this burden on her.
However, after analyzing the tribe leader's intentions, I understood that she didn't intend to let Yaoyao go. She wanted to kill her. I definitely couldn't let that happen.
It wasn't a solution to be in a stalemate here. Looking at the tribe leader's complacent expression, I felt vexed.
After thinking about it again and again, I brought Yaoyao and the sacrificial evil spirit to leave the Fox King Palace.
The High Priestess wanted to stop me, but the words were stuck in her mouth for a long time. In the end, she sighed and followed after me.
After exiting the Fox King Palace, the High Priestess kept sighing behind me and muttered something.
After muttering to himself for a while, he trotted over and knelt down in front of me. With an anxious expression, he said, "Lord God's Envoy, you must save the Saintess. You can't let the Patriarch cripple her cultivation."
How could I not understand the meaning behind it? But besides taking Yaoyao away from the Green Hill Country, there was no other way.
However, Yaoyao refused to leave. It seemed that if I wanted to turn the situation around, I would have to find another way.
Fortunately, the tribe leader didn't use force. Perhaps she wanted to wait for me to understand the situation and retreat.
After helping the High Priestess up, I told her my thoughts and asked her if she had any weakness as the tribe leader.
At present, we couldn't make the first move. Firstly, we had no reason to attack her. Secondly, once we made a move, it would definitely cause internal turmoil in the Green Hill Country. At that time, a bloody battle would be unavoidable. Yaoyao and the sacrificial evil spirit didn't want to see such a situation.
After listening to my words, the High Priestess hesitated. It seemed that she was thinking about something.
This kind of matter couldn't be rushed, so I brought everyone to the High Priestess' residence.
After entering the house, the High Priestess bit her lips and sighed softly. It seemed that she had made a decision in her heart.
He shook his head and said, "The tribe leader has been in power for hundreds of years. During this period, she hasn't made any wrong decisions.
However, I do know something about her. If this matter is made public, she will definitely not have a chance to rise again. "
I was delighted and hurriedly asked what it was about.
After listening to my words, he looked embarrassed. Could it be that this matter was related to him?
Without waiting for me to speak, the High Priestess sighed softly and told me about this matter.
Ever since the tribe leader knew that the High Priestess wanted to elect Yaoyao as the next tribe leader, he was somewhat resentful.
However, the High Priestess had a high status in the Green Hill Country. Moreover, she was also a Yang God Celestial Master. Her strength was comparable to the tribe leader.
Thus, the tribe leader couldn't do anything to the High Priestess. She could only compete with him secretly.
However, this wouldn't last long. Moreover, in the past few months, Yaoyao's strength had already broken through to the middle stage of Yang God Celestial Master. With this speed, she would soon surpass the tribe leader.
Yaoyao was already a thorn in the tribe leader's side. She had to be removed as soon as possible.
However, the High Priestess had always protected Yaoyao. She had even brought up the Fox King.
The tribe leader also didn't have a reasonable reason to kill Yaoyao. For a moment, both sides were in a deadlock.
However, the longer this dragged on, the stronger Yaoyao's strength would become.
The tribe leader believed that when Yaoyao's strength surpassed her, she would definitely use force to snatch the position of tribe leader.
After weighing the pros and cons, the tribe leader could only shift her focus to the matter of raising her cultivation.
Although her bloodline talent was already excellent in the Green Hill Country, it still couldn't compare to Yaoyao.
Moreover, due to the change in the Green Hill Country's bloodline, after becoming a Celestial Master, her cultivation speed was very slow. Not to mention the cultivation after becoming a Yang God Celestial Master.
The tribe leader tried everything she could, but she couldn't raise her cultivation by even a little bit.
Just as she was burning with anxiety, the High Priestess' son told her that there was a secret technique that could help her raise her cultivation.
This secret technique was passed down by the High Priestess of the Green Hill Country. The other tribe members didn't know how to cultivate this secret technique.
This secret technique could raise a cultivator's cultivation in a very short period of time, but other than the High Priestess, no one else could cultivate this secret technique.
The mission of the High Priestess was to protect the Green Hill Country, and this secret technique could only be used when the Green Hill Country was in danger.
Although the secret technique's effect was obvious, it came at the cost of a hundred years of life.
The previous generations of High Priestess had never used this secret technique. Firstly, it wasn't a matter of life and death for the Green Hill Country, and secondly, due to the bloodline restrictions, her cultivation was not high. Even if she used the secret technique, she couldn't raise her cultivation by much.
Therefore, this secret technique was gradually shelved.
When the tribe leader learned of this, she didn't hesitate to ask the High Priestess' son to tell her how to cultivate this secret technique.
She was already a late-stage Yang God Celestial Master. If she could raise her strength to the Rush Realm through this secret technique, her lifespan would be greatly extended. Losing a hundred years was nothing.
However, the High Priestess' son had his own plans.
Of course, he wouldn't hand over the secret technique so easily. Instead, he put forward a condition in exchange.
Speaking up to this point, the High Priestess looked a little embarrassed. Her words were very vague, and she seemed to be hesitating.
From his appearance, I could guess that the condition wasn't anything good.
However, in order to understand the situation, I still had to ask.
After listening to my words, the High Priestess sighed softly. "My unfilial son has been in love with the tribe leader for a long time, so he used this as a reason to let the tribe leader marry him.
However, the tribe leader didn't agree immediately. She only said that she would consider this matter after the matter was done. "
