"The old and young in the clan have been arranged."
In the Chen family ancestral hall, Chen Xingzhen asked.
On the side, Chen Tianyu replied:
"There are a total of 42 people in the tribe, young and old, and they have all entered the secret passage."
Chen Xingzhen nodded slightly. At this time, Chen Tianjing also stepped forward and reported:
"Clan leader, there are a total of eighteen warriors in the clan who are at the middle stage of the Body Tempering Realm or above, and they are all here now."
After hearing this, Chen Xingzhen looked forward and saw countless familiar faces.
Eighteen people were not a small number, and even seemed a bit crowded in the family ancestral hall. Together with their four blood coagulation realm warriors, there were a total of twenty-two people.
These twenty-two people are also the only remaining glory of the family. Unfortunately, among these eighteen clan members, there are not many warriors in the late Body Tempering Realm, and many of them are old, and there are few younger ones.
From this we can see that the Chen family is now in a period of transition.
And today's battle will determine the future of the family.
Facing the tribesmen's expectant eyes, Chen Xingzhen took two steps forward and then said solemnly:
"My Chen family has been in this mass grave for more than 20 years. Although we have experienced some setbacks along the way, we have never perished."
"But in the past few years, the family has been deteriorating, the situation has become increasingly worse, and there are even foreign enemies coveting us. Now the family is facing a life-and-death moment."
"Today is the day for the decisive battle between my Chen family and his Li family. If we win, our family will prosper, and if we lose, our family will perish."
Hearing Chen Xingzhen's generous words in front of him, many tribesmen below showed firmness and determination in their eyes, and the situation on the field was also silent.
At this moment, the only option is to fight to the death. How can we surrender?
Seeing that the tribesmen were excited and ready to fight to the death, Chen Xingzhen continued:
"Although with our family's current strength, we may not be a match for the Li family, but things are different now because we have the protection of the sacred tree!"
"As long as the sacred tree survives, there is hope for the family!"
"Before today's battle, offer sacrifices to the sacred tree once more and receive its blessing!"
Chen Xingzhen's words made many of the tribesmen below feel confused.
With a powerful enemy at hand, shouldn't we try to find a way to deal with the Li family? Why do we still need to worship the sacred tree at this critical moment?
After the war, if the family is still alive, wouldn’t it be better to worship them?
If the family is gone, what is there to worship?
For a moment, many tribesmen looked hesitant.
At this time, a figure suddenly stood up and began to worship the sacred tree.
"Qingyu?"
Many of the tribesmen behind him showed a hint of surprise when they saw the person who was the first to worship.
You know, before this, Chen Qingyu was the person who was most opposed to the sacred tree. He even proposed to cut down the family sacred tree several times during the clan meeting.
Although it failed due to the obstruction of the clan leader, it also made many clan members have a bad impression of the family sacred tree.
The divine power displayed by the sacred tree a few days ago did change the views of some tribesmen on the sacred tree, but they did not think that the sacred tree could save the family that was now on the verge of extinction.
But now seeing Chen Qingyu offering sacrifices, the others no longer hesitated and began to worship the sacred tree.
Chen Xingzhen, Chen Tianyu and others standing by paid their respects with all their heart.
After all, the three of them already knew that the family sacred tree is now the hope of the family.
Just as everyone was worshiping, the sacred tree in front of them began to emit a dim light again. For a moment, countless green spots of light flew out from the branches and leaves of the sacred tree and lingered around the ancestral hall.
The eyes of all the tribesmen who absorbed the green light brightened, and a hint of confidence emerged in their expressions.
Not only that, after the green light spots dissipated, seven or eight bright green rays of light flashed on the sacred tree again.
These green rays flew out from the branches and leaves, and then fell into the hands of several tribesmen.
When they looked carefully, the green light had turned into a dark green locust leaf.
Currently, only Chen Xingzhen and Chen Qingyu know the effects of locust leaves. When Chen Xingzhen saw these locust leaves, a faint smile appeared on his face.
The locust leaves did not fall randomly. Upon closer inspection, it was not difficult to find that the people with the locust leaves were the strongest people in the family.
In addition to Chen Qingyu and several Blood Coagulation Realm warriors, there are also several clansmen in the late Body Tempering Realm.
The people who got the locust leaves looked confused and didn't understand what the locust leaves in their hands were for.
The other tribesmen nearby were also observing these locust leaves with great curiosity, with a hint of doubt in their eyes.
Chen Xingzhen explained:
"This is the blessing of the sacred tree. You only need to crush it at the critical moment and you can use it!"
"Remember, the sacred tree can only protect you temporarily, so you must use it at the critical moment!"
Seeing Chen Xingzhen being so serious, the people who got the locust leaves also carefully put them away.
At the side, Chen Qingyu snorted lightly, and when the locust leaf fell into his hand, he put it away seemingly casually, but his movements were quite careful.
"Alright, the blessing of the sacred tree has been achieved. All tribesmen, start to act according to the previous plan!"
After saying this, each clan member in the ancestral hall began to act in an orderly manner.
After a while, Chen Xingzhen was the only one left in the ancestral hall.
The family’s plan was simple: lure someone into a trap.
The Li family is always monitoring their actions and will notice if anything goes wrong.
Today, he has sent most of his clansmen into the secret passage, leaving only warriors above the middle stage of the Body Tempering Realm.
Once the Li family realizes that something is wrong, they will definitely attack.
What they have to do is to launch an attack after the Li family enters the family.
The plan is simple, but it just needs to be practical.
Perhaps they could catch the Li family off guard at the beginning, but in the end it would still depend on the strength of both sides. Given the current gap between the two families, they probably would not be their match even with the help of their ancestors.
