The Black Wind Tribe was in chaos. After Li Qing shouted, he was horrified to find that no one answered him. He looked around and saw that the Black Wind Tribe members who had been surrounding him were nowhere to be found. Tu was nowhere to be seen, and the Moth Witch was neither alive nor dead. As for the Red Flower Tribe... Li Qing couldn't find even a single companion. It was as if he was the only one left in the whole world, which made Li Qing feel terrible.
Flames were burning fiercely all around him, and visibility was decreasing further, so Li Qing could only barely see objects three or four meters away, which made him feel a sense of danger.
Suddenly, Li Qing heard a low growl coming from behind him.
"Big Black!"
Li Qing turned around in surprise and saw that the big black dog was carrying two or three people on its back and walking towards them. He couldn't help but shout out in delight.
Yes, Big Black has awakened into a ferocious beast, but it is still a dog after all, and dogs have an extremely keen sense of smell. At this moment, it can't see its surroundings clearly, but Big Black is there. Big Black can do it! It helps it find its lost brothers in the surrounding tribes!
The people on Big Black's back were almost unharmed. Upon seeing Li Qing, they even stood up, jumped off Big Black, greeted Li Qing, and anxiously reported their situation.
"They've all gotten separated. The chieftain, Chu, and the others are all gone, as are those bastards from the Black Wind Tribe. They're all scattered and can't be found!"
"If it weren't for the big gang helping us, we probably wouldn't have found you even when we were dying," the young soldier said, his voice breaking as he wiped his nose, his voice trembling with emotion. "Wheat, what do you think we should do now?"
With Chu Hedian absent, they regarded Li Qing as their leader, the only person they could rely on now.
Li Qing decisively ordered, "We must find our lost brothers no matter what, and then we'll return to the tribe. This is a critical moment; acting alone is tantamount to suicide!"
"But, what should we do?"
The surrounding visibility was extremely poor; outside of the visible range, they could only see some scattered firelight, which put them under tremendous mental stress.
Li Qing mounted Dahei and said to the others, "You all come up here too. Dahei has a very keen sense of smell. If we follow it, we'll definitely find our brothers."
After the last soldier sat back on Big Black, Li Qing immediately ordered Big Black, "Let's go!"
Just then, Li Qing suddenly saw a warhorse rushing out from the front, and the person sitting on that warhorse was none other than Dian!
Dian was, after all, the chieftain of the Red Flower Tribe. Even though he was only a level three warrior, his experience allowed him to quickly find a safe way out for himself at this moment.
Dian's appearance relieved some of the pressure on everyone, including Li Qing, especially the young people. In their hearts, the chieftain was everything; as long as the chieftain was there, there was nothing that couldn't be accomplished.
“Wheat, how are things on your side?” Dian asked anxiously. “I’ve seen several Black Wind Tribe warriors lying on the ground, and they look like they’re not going to make it.”
Li Qing clasped his fists tightly and said, "We're alright!"
Running up to Li Qing, and seeing that Li Qing and the others on Da Hei's back were indeed unharmed, Dian breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What exactly was that falling from the sky just now? It was terrifying! As soon as it touched the ground, it burst into flames!"
Li Qing smiled wryly and said, "It's the same thing you and the Jie Wu saw back then... Let's just call this thing a meteorite."
Upon hearing this, Dian gasped and instinctively asked, "Meteorite... what is that? Does it mean that all those prophecies have come true?"
Li Qing sighed, "What's the use of saying all this now? Let's find Chu and the others first and talk to them. We absolutely cannot abandon them!"
Hearing this, Dian didn't blame Li Qing for his tone, but instead agreed in a deep voice: "Yes! I don't want to see any more people from the Red Flower Tribe die!"
Li Qing nodded, then suddenly thought of something and suggested, "Chief, let's split up; that would be more efficient!"
Dian frowned and said, "But in the current situation, it's not very safe to split up."
Li Qing laughed and said, "It's alright, Chief. Warhorse and Big Black have very strong senses of smell. Even if we split up and get lost, it won't matter. Warhorse and Big Black will not lose contact! Big Black's scent is different from other wild animals, so Warhorse will definitely not forget its scent. As for us, there will be no accidents. Big Black and I can communicate without any problems now. We can find you anytime if anything happens."
“Wheat, but given the current situation…”
"Yes, I think it's better for us to follow the chief."
Having finally met the chief, the soldiers beside Li Qing were filled with apprehension at the prospect of parting ways.
Li Qing turned around and said sternly to them, "We are doing this for the better of our tribe! Are you willing to see more people die?"
"this……"
"Alright, Mai Zi." Dian sighed. He had been persuaded by Li Qing. "I understand what you mean, but they are doing it for our own good. Don't blame them too much."
Dian continued, "Don't make things too difficult for Mai Zi. I agree with what he said, so let's do as he says!"
Since Dian Du had said so, what could they say? They could only lower their heads and reluctantly agree.
Without wasting any more time, Dian Jian, seeing that nothing was amiss, immediately pulled on the reins. "Five hundred breaths. No matter what happens after five hundred breaths, we must gather outside the Black Wind Tribe's entrance!"
Li Qing nodded and said, "Okay."
Five hundred breaths sounds like a long time, but in this situation, it's definitely not enough. However, Li Qing also knows that in situations like this, it's even more important to agree on a specific time to meet, otherwise everything will fall apart!
This is also one of the things Li Qing greatly admires about Dian. After all, if it were Chu or someone else by his side at this time, Li Qing is almost certain that they would never give such an order as Dian did.
Dian smiled, but at that moment, her smile looked even uglier than a cry: "Then I'll go."
With that, he turned his back on Li Qing and rode away.
Li Qing stroked Da Hei's fur. Strangely enough, this action helped him to get out of his bad mood a little. He turned his back to the people behind him, composed himself, and turned back to them gently, saying, "Let's go too. The brothers of the tribe are still waiting for us!"
