Chapter 371 Driving Out of the Tribe
A bright green light flew into the sky, interrupting the two beams of light that were about to connect.
The light emitted by the mother tree lingered on the emerald green halo for a moment before gradually receding and returning to the tree trunk beneath the statue.
When this light collided with the green glow emitted by Natia through the crystal, the entire sky instantly erupted with intense white light, illuminating the entire Lion's Roar tribe in a blinding white.
The beastmen in the tribe immediately closed their eyes, knelt on the ground, and prayed for the protection of the Mother Tree and the Beast God.
Icon Square was filled with kneeling people.
Around the stone houses on the edge of the tribe, orcs and females knelt down.
They saw the light emanating from Jiang Xi's hand, and they also saw the mother tree return along the same path.
They knelt on the ground, stunned, unable to react at all.
Nafiel unleashed his supernatural power, wanting to lend the female master a hand, but as soon as his power touched the holy female's light, he instantly felt a suction force.
Jiang Xi quickly grabbed him, interrupting his supernatural ability.
Her dark eyes narrowed slightly, pulling against the green light that was a combination of blue and gold in the air.
She sensed the suction and was pulled back in.
For a moment, the two forces were locked in a stalemate in the air, and the light grew increasingly blinding, forcing the beastmen to close their eyes.
Jiang Xi, however, saw countless glowing trees with vines hanging down like the mother tree in the light. But these trees were not just one color; there were emerald green, blue, gold, and one... colorless?
The towering, glowing trees seemed like a miracle.
But the scene only lasted for a moment before disappearing from sight. When her vision returned, Natia on the carriage staggered back two steps, her hand holding the crystal trembling, looking at Jiang Xi not far away in disbelief.
At the same time, the mother trees of various tribes in the Giant Tree Forest all shimmered with a bright green light, casting a dreamlike halo over the forest.
The orcs and females in the Giantwood Forest, wherever they were, knelt down and prayed to the miraculous Mother Tree.
Jiang Xi looked at her hands, then seemed to sense something as she looked towards the Giant Tree Forest.
Although the light had weakened by the time it reached the cursed land, she still felt the power... an endless source of power.
It was as if she could obtain the power of the entire mother tree of the giant forest whenever she wanted.
But now is clearly not the time to think about this.
Jiang Xi raised her eyes and looked at the Holy Maiden and the group of Holy City beastmen on the carriage.
"It seems the Mother Tree of the Cursed Lands does not welcome you."
Everyone witnessed what had just happened. The four holy females of the Holy City never expected that Jiang Xi would be able to withstand the power bestowed upon the Holy Female by the Mother Tree, and even subtly gain the upper hand.
The orcs and females of the Holy City looked toward the Holy Mother, awaiting her command.
But those gazes made Natia feel a sharp, humiliating ache; how dare they doubt her?
Just as Natia was about to say something, the crystal in her hand flickered slightly.
A flicker of excitement crossed her eyes, but she quickly suppressed it.
She held her chin high, looked at Jiang Xi, sneered, and then looked at the orcs accompanying her.
"Go and summon the orcs built by the royal court, and have them build me a dwelling in the Giantwood Forest."
Having said that, she sat back down on the carriage and ordered someone to lower the curtains.
"This land is cursed; let's settle in the forest."
The orcs of the Holy City looked at each other, exchanged glances, and obediently headed towards the forest not far from the tribe.
Natia clenched her fists beneath her robes, her eyes filled with a cold glint.
A favored female asked in a low voice.
“Holy Female, Jiang Xi… Is she really Jiang Xi? How did her power suddenly become so strong that she can communicate directly with the Mother Tree?”
Only the Holy Mother can communicate directly with the Mother Tree. Although the attendants can also interpret the Mother Tree's meaning through certain methods, they cannot be granted power by the Mother Tree like the Holy Mother.
Natia's eyes flickered slightly, and she said in a cold voice.
"The power of the curse has affected everything here, including the mother tree and Jiang Xi. They have all been corrupted. Only the Giant Tree Forest is a safe place."
Hearing her words, the four holy females and the beastmen outside were stunned.
"Contaminated?"
"Wouldn't that be very dangerous!"
“Holy Mother, should we change tribes? Perhaps we could go to the Sky Territory and the Python Tribe.”
They had absolute faith in the words of the Holy Mother.
"All the mother trees we've encountered along the way have blessed Her Majesty. No wonder the mother trees here haven't communicated with Her Majesty; they've been corrupted!"
Natia: "The peak season for the beast tide is approaching, and there's no time to visit other tribes. Let's settle down in the forest on the edge of the Lion's Roar tribe."
"The Giant Tree Forest is shrouded by the supreme Mother Tree, and pollutants dare not set foot in this area."
"I humbly obey Your Majesty."
Jiang Xi stood still, watching the Holy City's carriages and orcs enter the forest and stop on a flat piece of woodland where they could see the Lion's Roar tribe.
The injured orc came over to express his gratitude.
"Thank you, female servant, for saving my life."
As he spoke, he began to kneel down.
Jiang Xi supported him and shook her head.
"Go back and rest."
She looked at the orc, then at the other orcs watching, and spoke.
"There are quite a few fourth-tier orcs accompanying the temple. Don't be reckless; your own safety is the most important thing."
Someone shouted, "What are you afraid of? We have Earth-rank!"
"That's right! We have Earth-rank!"
"I don't think that Earth-ranked guy from the Holy City can beat Lu Liufeng at all!"
"Exactly! There's absolutely nothing to be afraid of!"
Jiang Xi frowned slightly. She didn't want Lu Liufeng and Nafier to become the source of their arrogance, or to be coerced by them.
The leader quickly came out and suppressed the arrogance of the orcs.
"No matter where the orcs come from, the Lion's Roar Tribe treats them all equally! Today, the Holy City is causing trouble in the tribe, so we will drive them out! Tomorrow, if other orcs cause trouble because they have Earth-rank members in the tribe, they will also be driven out! We will show no leniency!"
The orcs' minds cooled down slightly, and they quickly lowered their heads.
"No, no, how could we dare to cause trouble using Lu Liufeng and Nafi's names?"
Jiang Xi glanced at the giant forest of trees in the distance, where the wind and tears intertwined, then looked up at Nafiel.
"Let's go back."
There are some things she hasn't figured out and needs to go back and think about them carefully.
What is the power of that Holy Mother?
Also, she left way too abruptly.
Something unusual must be going on.
We must not let our guard down.
Haisia rushed over and paused for a moment when she saw her walking back.
"it's over?"
Nafi glanced at him, the meaning in his eyes was self-evident.
Nakan, who had come with Haisia, couldn't help but complain.
"It's all Haixia's fault! He led me astray!"
Haisia looked slightly embarrassed.
"I usually travel by water, this is the first time I've traveled in a tribe."
Nafiel looked at Nakan and thought to himself that there was no hope.
At this moment, Duobin and the others also rushed over. Seeing that the excitement had ended, they all beat their chests and stomped their feet, repeatedly patting their chests with their six legs.
"I knew I shouldn't have waited for you guys!"
Xiao Ai tugged at her bunny ears shyly.
Jiang Xi greeted them and gave them directions.
"The people from the Temple have moved to that forest. Lu Liufeng and the Temple's Earth-Rank cultivators are fighting there. If you're interested, you can go and see."
Young beastmen and newly transformed teenage beastmen always make people lower their guard.
It's one thing for them to enjoy joining in the fun, but who knows what kind of information they might find out?
