“That’s a great idea.”
Xiao Chen looked at the old patriarch and nodded.
"It can be considered as atonement for your sins..."
It’s not that he is too cruel, but that he can’t trust the old patriarch.
Once the old patriarch becomes the new Wolf God, can he, the Wolf King, stop him?
That's pretty bad.
If the old patriarch has no other plans, the subsequent troubles may come decades or even hundreds of years later.
But if there is a plan, and the old patriarch destroys the Wolf God's will and immediately continues to do what the Wolf God wants to do, then in the blink of an eye, there will be another disaster.
Although this possibility is small, it does exist.
Even if the old chief said that he imprisoned the Wolf King in order to prevent him from destroying the werewolf clan, even if he paid with his life for it and transformed into another form... who knows if this was part of the plan?
The best outcome is to erase the will, turn it into pure power, and dissipate in the ancestral land.
Although the werewolf clan will no longer have a wolf god in the future, the werewolves can enter the ancestral land to practice, and they can become faster and stronger... At that time, the werewolf clan may be able to return to its peak in a short period of time.
"Um."
The old patriarch nodded.
"If I succeed, I will destroy my own will..."
"You agreed so readily, is there some conspiracy?"
Xiao Chen looked at the old patriarch and asked directly.
"What if you didn't die, but pretended to die, and then turned around and devoured the werewolf clan?"
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, the old patriarch smiled bitterly, but he was not angry. It was normal for Xiao Chen to have this doubt and concern.
If it were him, he would have to have it too.
"Don't worry about this. The power will dissipate by then..."
The old patriarch replied.
"At this point, I have no conspiracy. I just want to protect the werewolf clan... This is the mission my father gave me. I will do it well even if it costs my life."
Xiao Chen looked at the old patriarch and didn't say anything more.
We’ll talk about it when the time comes. After all, it’s still uncertain whether it will succeed. It’s too early to talk about it now.
"Although I am not a good person, I also want to stop the Wolf God. In addition to doing it for the werewolf clan, it is also for the world..."
The old patriarch spoke again.
"When he leaves, the whole world will be in turmoil."
"Destabilize the whole world? Oh, you think too highly of him."
Xiao Chen sneered.
"You don't have to worry about this. I dare not say anything about other places, but if he dares to go to China, the Chinese masters will teach him a lesson in minutes. No, make him unable to be a human being!"
"Is there a strong man in China who is stronger than the Wolf God?"
The old patriarch was surprised.
"Of course, there are plenty of people like me in China."
Xiao Chen said casually, bragging about China out of habit.
"Although the Wolf God is very powerful, I have seen many who are stronger than him... Especially in China, there are small worlds like the Werewolf Ancestral Land, where there are hermits and masters who are powerful enough to move mountains and seas and pick stars and chase the moon."
“…”
The old patriarch's eyes narrowed. He really hadn't paid much attention to China over the years.
He had been there a few years ago, and there were indeed many experts there.
However, there are not many who can match him.
Thinking about what Xiao Chen said again, it was true. Those truly powerful characters were all practicing in seclusion in the small world. How could he possibly meet them?
"When do we go in?"
Xiao Chen changed the subject and stopped bragging, otherwise he would easily explode if he boasted too much.
Know when to stop, just right.
"I have to make some preparations, maybe the day after tomorrow."
The old patriarch thought for a moment and said.
"What can I do to help? I am the Wolf King after all, so just tell me what you want."
Xiao Chen said casually again.
"Of course, you have to come in with me. When I say 50% chance, not only will I risk my life, but you will also have to risk your life."
The old patriarch nodded and said.
"What?"
Xiao Chen was stunned. What the hell, I was just talking casually, why did you take it seriously?
Let him fight to the death?
And then only 50% sure?
He really wanted to refuse, but when he thought about what he had just said, he couldn't refuse.
"Don't worry, I won't let you die in there. If I die, the werewolf clan will still rely on you and Amos."
The old patriarch laughed.
"I'm not afraid of death, I just...well, I'm the Wolf King, and I have no choice but to do my duty."
Xiao Chen looked at the old patriarch and said through gritted teeth.
"Amos was right..."
The old patriarch smiled with relief and a bit of gratitude.
"I am not sure myself, but if I succeed, the werewolf tribe will be grateful to you..."
"No, just don't think about my body."
Xiao Chen curled his lips and subconsciously touched the bone ring on his left hand.
This is his biggest trump card to deal with the soul. He didn't use it before, but he will have to use it when he goes in again.
Even if the old patriarch didn't say anything, he would go in again, but he would go in again if he could avoid taking action. It would be great to just watch the excitement.
By then, both sides will suffer losses, and he will reap the benefits by using the bone ring to absorb a large amount of energy. Perfect!
He had a hunch that after the bone ring was upgraded, there would be earth-shaking changes and it would no longer be just a storage ring.
He imagined that it could be transformed into a real small world.
If this is true, then it would be wonderful. There is no need for Dragon Island or Gata Island. Our base camp will be in the bone ring from now on.
Not only can you carry it with you, it is also very safe!
"what can I do?"
Amos and the elder asked at the same time.
"Amos, prepare to hold a clan meeting. All clan elders and core members must attend... At that time, I will announce you as the next clan leader."
The old patriarch looked at Amos and said.
"As for my identity as a demon wolf... after I die, you will announce it. It's not that I don't dare to face it, but at this time, the werewolf tribe cannot have any more trouble."
“…”
Amos was silent. He never thought that he would become the patriarch.
"Joel, are you willing to sacrifice your life for the werewolf clan?"
The old patriarch looked at the elders again and asked.
"Of course I do!"
The patriarch said loudly without even thinking.
“…”
Xiao Chen glanced at Chief Joel. Well, this guy is truly righteous. Look, he’s getting carried away again.
"Very good, I will use you when the time comes."
The old patriarch smiled with relief.
"Don't let anyone know about dealing with the Wolf God for now... After all, this matter has a huge impact. Just tell Alec and the others. They will also need to do something."
"Um."
Amos nodded. If word got out that the Wolf God was going to devour all werewolves, it would definitely cause chaos and panic.
"Let's stop here for today. I'm injured and need to recover."
The old patriarch said slowly.
"In the afternoon, let Alec and the others come first... Xiao Chen, you should also recover from your injuries as soon as possible."
"good."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"By the way, do you need me to perform the Wolf King Ceremony for you?"
The old patriarch thought of something and asked.
"No need, I can't afford it..."
Xiao Chen's face darkened.
"Don't worry, I have no plans for you and I won't do anything else."
The old patriarch smiled bitterly when he saw Xiao Chen's reaction.
"Oh, who knows? Anyway, don't try to make me believe you... Amos, don't believe this old guy either, he is very evil! Before me, he was planning to take over your body!"
Xiao Chen turned around and said to Amos.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Amos was stunned and looked at the old patriarch with a complicated expression.
"My life was saved by the clan leader. It's okay if he wants to take it away."
"What are you talking about? I saved your life."
Xiao Chen was annoyed.
"Can I have it, too?"
"Can."
Amos looked at Xiao Chen and nodded.
“…”
Xiao Chen was speechless and didn't bother to say anything more. People's concepts are still different.
"Okay, that's it. I need to recover from my injuries and keep an eye on the ancestral land..."
The old patriarch said this and slowly stood up.
"You can also pay more attention to the Wolf God incarnation. If it cracks, it means that the situation in the ancestral land is not good... If it breaks, then the Wolf God will leave the ancestral land."
"Um."
Amos nodded.
"I'll go inform the other elders..."
"Go ahead."
After the old patriarch finished speaking, he turned around, hunched over, and left.
Xiao Chen looked at the old patriarch's back and curled his lips. He really despised this old guy.
When the old patriarch's back disappeared, he withdrew his gaze and looked at Amos: "How does it feel to have your faith shattered?"
"I……"
Amos opened his mouth and smiled wryly.
He was a little confused.
"It's okay. When the old beliefs are shattered, we can build new ones."
Xiao Chen comforted.
"A new faith?"
Amos was startled.
"Yeah, me."
Xiao Chen pointed at himself.
"From now on, you can regard me as your belief and your idol..."
“…”
Amos was speechless, you?
"Why, am I not excellent and powerful?"
Xiao Chen was annoyed.
"At least he's much better than that old guy who's full of schemes and intrigues..."
"well……"
Amos sighed softly. He could understand that the old patriarch imprisoned the Wolf God, but he still couldn't get over the fact that the old patriarch was a demon wolf.
The Wolf God was imprisoned for the sake of the werewolf clan.
The establishment of [Demon Wolf] was for himself.
The former can be explained and accepted, but the latter...how can we let it go and forgive it?
"Don't think too much. Don't forget that we are still in big trouble."
Xiao Chen patted Amos on the shoulder and stood up.
"Let's deal with this big problem of Wolf God before we consider other things."
"Um."
Amos nodded.
"That's right, let's solve the big problem first. I want to protect the werewolf clan..."
"Haha, that's right to think so."
Xiao Chen smiled, then looked at the elder.
"Old Qiaoer, huh? There aren't many people I admire, but you are one... You are simply the embodiment of justice."
"No, no... I don't deserve to be the Wolf King."
The clan elder was stunned and spoke quickly.
"Wolf King, you are also very righteous. I admire you very much..."
“…”
Xiao Chen's mouth twitched. Are you praising me? Why do I feel like you are scolding me?
Just like in this society, praising who is a good person~
He said this to the tribe elder with a bit of joking, but the old werewolf turned out to be serious.
"Wolf King, I am going back to our ancestral land to keep an eye on things. I will report to you at any time if there is any situation."
The clan elder said to Xiao Chen.
"Of course, you can also come to me if you have any questions."
"Well, okay."
Xiao Chen nodded. Although he was somewhat teasing towards the elder, he did not tell any lies.
He really admired the justice of this elder. There were not many people like him nowadays.
It is precisely because there are not many of them that they seem silly...and also more precious.
