"You...how can you be sure that God will transfer people away? To God, the former site of the Obsidian Tribe is just an abandoned land that he doesn't want anyone to set foot on." Ji looked at Xuan and said.
"We will definitely go." Xuan affirmed, "They used the Yunlu and Obsidian tribesmen to lure us here. We came, but instead of going to the Thorn Tribe to die as they had planned, we turned around and went to the former site of the Obsidian Tribe."
"You say, God...will he be curious, confused, or afraid about the reason why we gave up Yunli and the Obsidian tribe? Will he think...is there something more important out there? Do you think God...would dare to take a gamble?" Xuan's voice was very low, like the whisper of a devil.
That was the burial place of his biological father, the orc who had been able to compete head-on with God for the stone slab. How could God not be wary of him? How could God not be afraid that You had left a trick up your sleeve?
Especially...his biological father Yun Yao ran away to the south while pregnant with him. How could God be sure whether Yun Yao was alive or not, whether the baby in Yun Yao's belly was alive or not, and whether the unknown force in the south had any connection with Yun Yao or the baby in Yun Yao's belly?
Calculating the time, didn’t that unknown force in the south appear just a few years after that cub became an adult?
At this sensitive time, when God knew that Ji and the unknown force in the south were lured to the north, they abandoned their tribesmen, lovers, and relatives and ran to the place he thought was an abandoned land.
Would God think too much about it?
Even if the god believed that the stone tablet in his hand was real, he would still care about the fact that they went to the former site of the Obsidian Tribe. He would worry that You might have left a backup plan at the former site of the Obsidian Tribe.
By then, God's attention will definitely shift to the former site of the Obsidian Tribe.
As long as God mobilizes the people he has placed in the Thorn Tribe to encircle Ji and Xuan and go to the former site of the Obsidian Tribe, things will be easy.
Ji, with the people he brought from the northwest and the nearly 6,000 orcs from these seven tribes, was bound to destroy the Thorn Tribe.
Xuan looked at Ji and said, "If God is so confident that he doesn't care about my presence at the former site of the Obsidian Tribe, then don't blame me for taking the stone tablet away with the pearl."
He transformed into a human form, raised his hand and touched the pearl that he had always worn around his neck as an ornament, occasionally stuffing it with necessities, and continued, "As long as they don't see me with their own eyes, I have a way to avoid being discovered by them, and I also have a way to take the stone tablet away."
He tapped the pearl lightly, took out the mini Xuan made by Meng Yuqing with his fur, and then put the mini Xuan back in Ji's surprised eyes.
"If God really doesn't send anyone here," Xuan said with a smile, "then I'll just take the stone tablet and run south, run to the north-south barrier, and break the seal on the stone tablet. Let's see... who's more anxious... him, or us?"
"The stone slab, the Obsidian tribe, and the Cloud Oak are all very important to us, but to God, the lives of the Obsidian tribe and the Cloud Oak are far less important than the stone slab. Otherwise, He wouldn't have allowed the Thorn Tribe to keep them for so long."
"If we trick the gods into thinking we don't care that much about the Obsidian tribe and Yun Qu, or if we trick the gods into thinking we've given up on them and chosen something more important, then they won't be that dangerous anymore."
"After all, when threatening someone, it has to be about something the threatened person cares about."
After listening to Xuan's words, Ji had to admit that he was convinced by Xuan.
If God uses the people they care about to force them, then don't blame them for using things God cares about more to fight back against God.
He stood there and looked at Xuan for a long time. No matter whether he was in human or animal form, the person in front of him looked very much like his best friend.
The first time he saw him, he felt as if he saw his close friend who was full of vigor and vitality more than 20 years ago.
But the little guy in front of him is much "badder" than his best friend.
His best friend is too upright...
"Then it's too dangerous for you to go alone." Ji said this after collecting his thoughts.
He agreed with Xuan's action plan, but was still worried about Xuan going alone.
Xuan shook his head and looked at Ji, "I have to go alone. My method is only enough to ensure that I won't be discovered by the people guarding there. I can't do anything about other people. It will be even more dangerous if they follow."
The pearl Meng Yuqing gave him could only hold one cubic meter of energy. According to Meng Yuqing, one cubic meter was actually a lot.
The energy came in strands. In order to cram more into him, Meng Yuqing arranged each strand of energy neatly and put them in one by one to ensure that there would not be any gaps in the cubic meter that could hold the energy.
For Xuan, these are enough for him to cause trouble at the former site of the Obsidian Tribe. He is not an orc with very weak strength, so he does not need to use energy all the time. He only needs to use it when necessary to conceal his existence.
But if he brings others with him, he will have to share his energy with others, so the energy may not be usable.
After listening to Xuan's words, Ji remained silent. He didn't know whether what Xuan said was true or false, but he knew that Xuan would definitely not take anyone else with him.
He looked at Xuan for a long time before speaking, "Don't joke about your own safety. There are people waiting for you to return to Qingshan City."
"Yeah." Xuan nodded, his eyes full of tenderness, "I know, I won't joke about my own safety."
"It's good that you know." Ji stopped trying to persuade Xuan and said, "Let me tell you about the terrain of the Obsidian Tribe. Maybe it will be helpful to you."
"Okay." Xuan responded and listened quietly as Ji told Xuan the terrain, layout, important places and everything about the Obsidian Tribe.
Although more than 20 years have passed, the appearance of the Obsidian Tribe is still so clear in Ji's memory.
Listening to Ji's story, the image of the Obsidian Tribe in Xuan's mind gradually became fuller. It was no longer just the name of a tribe, nor was it just four ordinary words.
It was a tribe that existed and prospered more than 20 years ago, provided shelter to many people, and represented safety in the hearts of many people.
After Ji finished speaking, the two were silent for a while. After they had calmed down, they talked about the details of Ji and their actions after Xuan led away the people from the Thorn Tribe, how to quickly rescue the people from the Obsidian Tribe, and how to quickly find Yun Li and protect him.
