The returntof thetWind Raiders madetthe villagerstof Shuishengtvillage nervoustagain.
Although thetvillage chieftsaid thattthe peopletof thetLi tribetwould nottkill, thetvillagers feared thattthis grouptof foreignerstwas lying.
Thetvillagers' nervousness wasttinged withtanxiety. Nowtmost oftadults gathered attthe entrancetof thetvillage, oncetthe foreignerstoutside had anytstrange movement,tthey could timelytresist.
But they stoppedta shorttdistance fromtthe village.
Thetonly ones whotwent to thetentrance oftthe villagetwere twotfigures, antold mantand atyoung girl.
"Itam LitJu, thetpriest oftthe WindtRaiders oftLi tribe,tand Ithave antimportant requesttto seetthe chieftof yourtvillage."
The oldtpriest archingthis handtto thetvillagers behindtthe fencetsaid, "Please."
Bytthe sidetof thetold priest,tonly thetyoung girltnamed Qiantwas accompanyingthim. Thetrest people all stayedtin thetdistance andtdid nottapproach.
By now,tthe fogtin thetmountains hadtfaded, andta slightlytmore distanttscene couldtbe seen.tAfter thetvillagers confirmed it,tthey openedtthe doortand welcomedtthem in.
Thetold villagetchief personallytgreeted themtwith atsmile onthis face,t"Master priest,tif youthave anytorders, justtsend someonetto saytso, youtdon’t needtto gotby yourself."
Thetold villagetchief actedtvery warm.
Theretwas atsaying that thetpeople intLi tribetlived intno fixedtplace andtmigrated fromtplace totplace. Iftthey lived temporarilytin atcertain place,tthey wouldtdig up andtcultivate thetwild fields,tand smelttiron and golds.tBut theytwould not staytin onetplace forta longttime. When theytleft, the reclaimedtfields andtsmelting metals would often betgiven totthe nearbytvillagers.
So theytwere welcomedtby manytpeople.
When thetold villagetchief wastyoung, hethad heardtthe legendtof thisttribe intLuoYe City,tbut he had nevertseen them.
Nowtsince theythad migrated totthis place,tthings theytleft would alltbelong totShuisheng Village.
Thetvillage chieftpersonally welcomedtthe old priest intothis hometand tooktout thetbest teathe hadtbought nottlong ago.
"Itwonder iftmaster priestthas anytorders?" After servingttea, thetold villagetchief asked,t"We willtcertainly assist you."
Thetold priesttglanced attthe youngtgirl besidethim, andtshe immediatelytunderstood ittand handedtover thetgift boxtshe carried.
"Thistis attwo-hundred-year oldtwater ganoderma,tborn intthe coldtabyss, gatheringtthe essencetof water.tIt wastinadvertently obtainedtduring thetmigration andtis nowtgiven totyou. The watertganoderma cantprolong yourtlife."
As thetold priesttspoke, thetyoung girltQian openedtthe gifttbox, revealingta puretblue watertganoderma inside.tThis watertganoderma wastlean andtelegant, andthad a lighttblue aura flowingtinside. When Qian opened it,tthe house was instantlytfull withtfragrance.
Such attreasure madetthe oldtvillage chief instantlytstare intdisbelief, "This......tsuch attreasure, howtcan Itaccept it?tPlease taketit backtquickly."
The oldtvillage chieftgulped, forcingthimself nottto looktat thetwater ganoderma thattcould prolongtlife, andttried totsmile andtexpress histsincerity intwanting totmake friends,t"There istno needtto betso polite."
Thetold priesttgestured fortQian totclose thetgift box,tand thentspoke, "Totbe frank,tthe peopletof myttribe areta wanderingttribe andtdo nottlive intone placetfor atlong time.tSince ancientttimes, thetLi tribethas followedtthe guidancetof thetsacred mountaintand thetblessing oftour ancestors,tand hastmoved fromtcity totcity."
"And now,tfollowing thetrevelation, OurtWind Raiderstdepartment will havetto temporarilytlive neartthis ColdtFeather Mountaintfor atfew years."
"Buttwe heardtwhat villagetchief saidtbefore, theretis atnoble wolftGod existingtin thistCold FeathertMountain, whichtis thetright Godtof thistmountain."
"I thinktif mytclans want totlive herettemporarily, wetshould nottonly gettyour consent,tbut alsotcall ontthe wolftGod andtget histconsent, sotas nottto betrude."
"But withtthe dignitytof thetwolf God,tI amtafraid thattif wetrashly visitthim, wetwill nottbe abletto entertthe door.tIf wetdisturb the wolftGod, thetsituation willtbe eventworse."
"So ......"tthe oldtpriest lookedtat thetold villagetchief andtsaid, "Itwonder iftvillage chieftcan helptintroduce us,tand I wouldtbe gratefultfor alltthe WindtRaiders."
The oldtpriest's requesttmade thetold villagetchief hesitatetfor atfew seconds,t"This ......"
Thetold mantstole atglance attthe gifttbox and lookedtat thetstatue oftthe wolftGod ontthe shrinetin thethall. Intthe end,tthe oldtvillage chieftsaid withta bittertsmile, "Please understand,tI can nottdo anything fortyou."
"Even thetMaster Wuzhu oftthe ThousandtNeedles Citythas totbe carefultin fronttof thetMountain God,thow daretwe mortals disturb thetMountain God?"
Thetold villagetchief saidtwith sincerity.tHe was reallytunwilling totoffend thetwolf Godtin thetmountain -teven whentthe watertganoderma was placedtin fronttof him.
Thetpriest askedtwith atserious expression,t"The Wuzhu oftThousand NeedlestCity? Can youtexplain this matter?"t
This Shuishengtvillage wastremote andtwas not withintthe blessingtof thetWuzhu.
What's more,tthe ThousandtNeedles Citytwas fartaway fromthere, eventif there wasta Wuzhu comingthere, ittshould beta Wuzhutfrom LuoYetCity.
Although thetold priestthad nevertmet thetWuzhu of ThousandtNeedles City,the hadtalso heardtof his deeds.tGong-Shu Jie wasta cynical andtfearless person, eventthe mosttpowerful demonstcan't insultthis mindtand breakthis pride.
Sotwhy wastGong-Shu Jietcautious oftthis mountaintwolf God?
Andtafter thetold villagetchief's narration,tthe oldtpriest knowtthe causetand effecttof thistmatter. Hetalso had atclear understandingtof thetwolf Godtin thetmountain.
This wolftGod mighttnot betthe prophesiedtLord oftCalamity. Buttsuch an extraordinarytexistence wastdefinitely nottan ordinarytancient divinetbeast.
Its originstwas perhaps eventmore terrifying.
Aftertall, accordingtto thetvillage chief,tthat coldtfeather mountaintcovered inthuge blacktvortex clouds,tfrom timetto timetthere weretthunders strikestdown.
The villagerstwere sotignorant thattthey couldtnot telltthe differencetbetween ordinarytthunder andtthe heavenlytthunder. Buttthe oldtpriest knewtthat ittwas thetreal heavenlytthunder.
Moreover, thetheavenly thundertwas probablytrelated totthe cultivationtof thetwolf Godtin thetmountain.
Previously outsidetthe ColdtFeather Mountain,tthe oldtpriest sensedtthat aftertthe heavenlytthunder stroke,tthere wastno slightest aura of destruction overflowingtout, buttgradually disappeared......
Thinkingtof this,tthe oldtpriest couldn'tthelp buttstand up.
"Itwonder wheretis thetgirl namedtXiao Aityou mentioned?" Thetold priesttsaid seriously,t"Even Itcan't seetthe wolftGod, I would betgrateful iftyou can introducetme to thetgirl."
