Chapter 81 Migration
Rocky island, on a cliff.
Wu Yue looked at the horned jade pendant coiled under Ji Rong's beard and explained the thoughtful accommodations arranged for them by the Wu Yao Clan;
On the other side, Gu Qingqing and Ji Zhuang compared and confirmed the sea chart.
After hearing what Wu Yue had said, Gu Qingqing happily scratched her leg and excitedly exclaimed, "I didn't expect that Wuqi, that three unlike creatures, to be so generous!"
She put down the nautical chart and chased Feng Qing all over the place like she was chasing a mouse, laughing loudly.
Upon hearing this, Ji Zhuang was so happy that he couldn't help but fly around twice.
Ji Rong was equally delighted. All her exposed roots stood up, moving on their own even without wind. They swayed left and right in a regular and orderly manner, appearing extremely happy.
"Two days later?" Upon hearing this, Jiao Jue squinted his eyes with delight and twitched his dragon whiskers, praising, "Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful."
Jiao Jue thought to himself, after killing Huang Wen and encountering the Mirror Spirit, his dragon life seemed to take off on the spot, with the potential to soar into the sky!
That's absolutely brilliant!
"No wonder the gods indulge in extravagance yet show no signs of decay."
Jiao Jue thought to himself, "How could they decline if they imprisoned such grand rules as cause and effect?"
"Lord Golden Dragon."
The shaman bowed and said, "Two days from now, I would like to ask you to appear and escort us to participate in the sacrificial ceremony and perform the clan's rites."
“Of course.” Jiao Jue nodded and said, “Two days later, I will accompany this fox, who has received your greetings, to escort you there.”
Wu Yue and Xun Wu bowed deeply in gratitude once again.
Although Wu Yue can wield the power of a great shaman, he is a symbol of the pure blood of the ancient shaman, and cannot squander his remaining lifespan on the pomp and circumstance of the clan.
It would be wonderful if Jiao Jue were willing to give it to me.
After expressing their gratitude, Wu Yue and Tuan Wu hurriedly headed back to their temporary settlement.
Two days later, they were to set off.
Take what you should take, and leave behind what you shouldn't.
Fortunately, they lived nearby during this relocation, so they were able to pack and cover up the items they couldn't take with them temporarily, and they could retrieve them later.
Gu Qingqing and Ji Zhuang also began to tidy up, but they only walked around the charred cave with its bare stone walls before coming out.
Gu Qingqing couldn't help but look at Ji Zhuang, who was still beaming with joy, with her fox-like eyes drooping, and sighed, "Our lives are getting poorer and poorer."
This time, they're so poor they only have a pile of straw to be used as bedding. If we bring that along, we'll lose all face and dignity.
Ji Zhuang turned his head slightly and glanced at Gu Qingqing with one eye, saying, "I have to leave this grass here. You are auspicious, so you go over there. I want to stay here with my sister."
Upon hearing this, Jiao Jue laughed and said, "Little bird, if you don't go, how will the fox cross the sea?"
"Would you like to be a lucky charm too? If so, I'll have the old man add you to the list."
Ji Zhuang shook his head and slowly said, "Qing-jie is enough. I can take Qing-jie there, but what will happen to my younger sister if I go with her?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Rong felt that her brother was always thinking of her.
She looked down at Jiao Jue, who had been smiling with narrowed eyes ever since she heard the news, and said, "You've all left, so what am I going to do? What if something finds me and digs me out?"
Jiao Jue shook his head and laughed, "This place is remote and desolate. Your brother will take you there and come back. He won't lose you."
"My brother is only at the mortal demon realm. There must be a few people in this sea with higher cultivation levels."
Jiao Jue thought about it and agreed. He beckoned to Ji Zhuang, took out a storage bag containing spirit crystals from his mouth, and said, "After you send the person back tomorrow, remember to put ten spirit crystals in the stone troughs under the twelve stone slabs with inscriptions around here every day at Chenshi (7-9 AM)."
Ji Zhuang gripped the bag tightly and nodded emphatically.
Jiao Jue then taught Ji Zhuang the incantation to start the battle, but the incantation was obscure and difficult to understand.
Jiao Jue taught him word by word, and Ji Zhuang learned word by word. At least he learned to speak them, but as for the meaning, Ji Zhuang didn't know.
Gu Qingqing and Ji Rong were stunned when they heard this. They knew that Jiao Jue was very wealthy, but they never expected that Jiao Jue would spend 120 spirit crystals a day just to set up an inscription array!
Ji Rong couldn't help but think of the days when she and her brother worked in Ligu City, those days when they toiled all day for just a few spirit crystals.
Ji Rong thought to herself that it was no match for this dragon. The moment they compared, she wanted to jump up and give it a good beating.
How come they're still so rich after eating like this for so many years!
Gu Qingqing was not only impressed by Jiao Jue's wealth, but also by his high level of skill in inscribing and seal carving.
Such exquisite inscriptions combined to form a seemingly natural environment only requires 120 spirit crystals per day! It can also be controlled with incantations.
This dragon is truly highly skilled in the art of formations!
Feng Qing, who was sitting on Ji Zhuang, said, "I'm not leaving, my legs are too weak!"
Jiao Jue squinted at her and said, "Fox, paint all over its body."
Upon hearing this, Feng Qing, who was sitting, immediately sat up. It pawed at the ground and nodded like a chick pecking at rice, which was extremely cute.
Ji Rong felt that Feng Qing was becoming more and more like a living thing, and asked curiously, "Brother Jiaolong, why is your mirror spirit becoming more and more like a fox? You still say it's an inanimate object? Tell me the truth."
Upon hearing this, Jiao Jue sneered, "Then think about it, who did it learn from?"
——————
The next morning, Wu Yue came to deliver the sacrificial procedures.
They first need to go to Huofeng Island to worship their ancestors, and after the ceremony, they will settle down on Xifeng Island, and then go to Wangfeng Island, Jiefeng Island, and Tuifeng Island to hand over matters concerning the spiritual veins.
Hundreds of large thatched huts have been temporarily erected on Xifeng Island to serve as temporary residences for the remnants of the ancient shaman tribe.
Wu Yue had no objection to this, and added that in addition to Lord Xiangrui Jinlong, Lord Xiangrui Gu and Lord Ji Zhuang, who had helped him many times, would also be going tomorrow.
Wu Yue originally intended to argue a few points.
He knew those few cultivators; their cultivation was too low, and their bloodline was ordinary, unlike the rare dragons.
But with the clan union imminent, raising a few more birds and beasts was not a big deal for them, who possessed a spirit crystal vein mine, so they readily agreed.
The two witches exchanged a few words and then parted ways hastily, agreeing to meet again the next day.
Early the next morning, Jiao Jue stretched out his true form, which was several dozen feet long. He carried the people of the Wu tribe on his back, and had Wu Yue and Tuan Wu sit on his head. He made a hand seal to put on a protective shield and flew towards Huofeng Island, the land of the Wu Yao Wu tribe.
Ji Zhuang followed closely behind.
Feng Qing and Gu Qingqing sat on Ji Zhuang's neck and tail respectively. They used their tails to encircle Ji Zhuang's back twice like a fence, firmly holding the dozens of children on Ji Zhuang's back.
On Wokwind Island, Wuqi and his group were already waiting.
As they gazed upon the Great Wuyue, who arrived with his people riding a golden dragon with a single horn, and followed by a large gray bird that carefully protected the children, they became even more convinced that welcoming the Great Wuyue back was a wise decision, a blessing from their ancestors.
Once the jade pendant had landed, he looked up and saw that the spirit trees here were short and had few leaves, undoubtedly due to the constant exposure to strong winds.
But now Jiao Jue could not feel a single bit of the gale, and he thought to himself that the Lich King must have spent a lot of money to set up a huge array to make a show of it.
As Jiao Jue suspected, Huofeng Island did indeed set up a transformation array, but not just for the sake of appearances, but also to take into account the elderly and weak of the Wu tribe's remnants.
Wuqi led his people in bowing and shouting, "Greetings to Great Wuyue, Greetings to Lord Jinlong, Lord Gu, and Lord Ji."
Wu Yue held a tortoise shell, and Xuanwu held the clan book; they then descended from the dragon's body.
Wu Yue walked up to Wu Qi and said, "No need for formalities, let's begin."
Wu Qi quickly agreed, and he turned slightly to lead the way for Wu Yue.
Wu Yue kept his eyes straight ahead, but out of the corner of his eye he saw that the road in front of him was wide and paved with white marrow stone slabs.
But see that:
The trees are low, with delicate green leaves.
The grass on the ground was lush and green;
A peaceful, spiritual energy permeated the air.
The footsteps behind him were light and orderly, without any whispering. Wu Yue couldn't help but admire Wu Qi's thoughtfulness once again.
