Just as Chen Qingyu was about to enter the secret passage, a rustling sound suddenly came from the sacred tree not far away from them.
The abnormality of the sacred tree attracted the attention of the two.
In the sight of the two people, a dazzling light suddenly appeared in the sacred tree that was emitting fluorescence at night.
As the trunk and branches swayed, a dark green leaf emitting green light slowly floated out from the branches and fell.
Soon, the leaf fell in front of Chen Qingyu.
Looking at the leaves slowly floating in front of him, Chen Qingyu frowned slightly.
Chen Xingzhen, who was standing by, was overjoyed at this moment and said hurriedly:
"Qingyu, take it quickly! This is the blessing of the sacred tree!"
After hearing this, Chen Qingyu reached out his hand helplessly to catch the leaf that was floating down, but his expression showed disapproval. It was just a locust leaf that could be seen everywhere. How could it provide protection?
If this sacred tree could now crawl out of the ground and repel the Li family, then he would feel that the sacred tree was the real blessing.
It's just treating some injuries, which is nothing and can't save the current family.
If the clan leader hadn't been there, he wouldn't have wanted this locust leaf!
It's nothing else.
He, Chen Qingyu, can do it with his own strength!
The dark green leaf fell into Chen Qingyu's hands, and soon lost its luster, turning into an ordinary-looking leaf.
However, Chen Xingzhen on the side was overjoyed at this time:
"Great! With the blessing of the sacred tree, this journey will surely be safe and sound."
Chen Qingyu casually put away the leaves, without listening to Chen Xingzhen's words of gratitude to the sacred tree, and then jumped into the secret passage below.
Above, Ji Yang felt a pang of heartache.
The locust leaf just now was one that he had invested two points of vitality into using his magical power of "blinding the eye with a leaf".
This was more than the injuries of the dozen or so tribesmen he had treated before, and it also made his already scarce vitality even worse.
However, considering that the journey was too dangerous, Ji Yang did not hesitate.
Although he could see Chen Qingyu's disdain and arrogance, the current situation was too bad. Moreover, Chen Qingyu was already the pillar of the family. If he was gone, how would he deal with the Li family in the future?
Whether it was for the Chen family or for himself, he had to show some appreciation.
We can only hope that Chen Qingyu can return safely this time, and preferably hunt a few more ferocious beasts.
One is fine.
If it really doesn't work, it's okay for the person to come back!
The current Chen family cannot withstand the blow.
After Chen Xingzhen left, the ancestral hall became quiet again, and Ji Yang began to concentrate on absorbing the moonlight.
Now Ji Yang's roots have spread beyond the ancestral hall, and from time to time he can sense the tribesmen patrolling outside the hall.
These tribesmen gathered in pairs and occasionally chatted with each other, which added more fun to Ji Yang.
But most of the time, Ji Yang heard more of the worries and lack of confidence of his fellow tribesmen.
If you think about it carefully, given the current situation of the family, the family members really cannot be confident.
But now the situation is uncertain and the outcome is still unknown.
He is no longer the dead tree he was a few days ago.
If he had a few more days of buffer time, allowing him to absorb more energy and blood and perform more deductions, the family crisis could be easily resolved.
"Qinghe, do you think the Li family will call in tonight?"
When Ji Yang heard these slightly familiar voices, his consciousness couldn't help but pause.
They were Chen Qinghe and Chen Qingmeng, who were assigned by Chen Xingzhen to patrol the area around the family.
The two men were holding knives and sticks, carefully looking around.
"have no idea."
Chen Qinghe shook his head.
"Qinghe, what should we do if the Li family breaks in?"
"Well, of course I'll fight them!"
There was a hint of determination on Chen Qinghe's slightly childish face, but the hand holding the handle of the knife was extremely strong. Even with his determined eyes, he still couldn't hide the panic in his heart.
After all, they are still two teenagers.
In the ancestral hall, Ji Yang couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he heard the conversation between the two.
At this age, it shouldn't be like this, but in this world, this is the rule, regardless of age.
"Qinghe, I do have a plan."
Chen Qingmeng stopped and said confidently.
"ah?"
"You have a plan too?"
After hearing this, Chen Qinghe couldn't help but look at this companion who grew up with him, with a hint of surprise, confusion, and strangeness in his eyes.
It was because it was the first time he heard Chen Qingmeng say that he also had a plan.
"My plan is, we go to the ancestral hall again and chop down the sacred tree! Maybe we can save the family!"
In the ancestral hall, Ji Yang, who was listening attentively to the plan, felt speechless.
If these two guys dare to come again, he will make sure to let them taste his power!
On the side, Chen Qinghe felt relieved.
Fortunately, this is still the Chen Qingmeng that I know, and he has not changed.
"I'm afraid this plan won't work for now. Since the last time we went there, there have been a lot more tribesmen patrolling outside the ancestral hall, and the tribe leader seems to have been staying in the ancestral hall all the time recently."
Seeing that his plan did not work, Chen Qingmeng sighed:
"That's a shame."
"Indeed, it's a bit of a pity."
Ji Yang also sighed in his heart.
Seeing this, Chen Qinghe patted his shoulder and said comfortingly:
"But it doesn't matter. We can go there next time. There will be plenty of opportunities! That tree can't possibly run away."
The disappointment on Chen Qingmeng's face disappeared instantly after being comforted, and the two continued their patrol.
"I'll be waiting for you."
In the ancestral hall, Ji Yang uttered words of resentment in his heart.
…
"Why didn't we see any blood coagulation beasts?"
Outside the secret passage, there is a mass grave in the mountain.
Chen Qingyu stood on top of a huge tree crown and looked around.
It has been about half an hour since he left the family secret passage, but today he has not seen a single ferocious beast in the blood coagulation realm.
Although he saw two Body Tempering Realm beasts, they were also at a lower level and he looked down on such prey.
After all, the difference in qi and blood between the two is not small, and even if it is used as food for the tribe members, it will not be enough to fill them up.
Thinking back to the blue wolf yesterday, Chen Qingyu seemed to have realized something.
Each ferocious beast has its own territory.
As for the blue wolf in the innate realm yesterday, its strength must be among the best in the Burial Mountain.
Even though the blue wolf did not consider this place as its territory, it did not conceal its blood and breath when it was chasing its prey yesterday.
Just the aura left along the way is enough to scare other ferocious beasts away and make them stay away from this place.
