Shen Yan lowered his voice. “Leave them to us. I’ll send them home.”
Huai Shan sneered. “That won’t do. You’re the leader of the feather tribe, and they’re beasts of the Rock Wolf Tribe. If you take them away and something happens, how will I explain it to Patriarch Shuang Yun? For safety’s sake, it’s better for me to send them home personally.”
Shen Yan said that the feather tribe and the Rock Wolf Tribe were friendly neighbors. He was also friends with Shuang Yun and would definitely take good care of the Rock Wolf Tribe.
But no matter what he said, Huai Shan refused to let him go.
It was obvious that he was determined to enter the mountain.
Sending these beasts home was just his excuse.
Shen Yan was a little impatient. If not for the fact that the other party was from the temple, he would have torn this treacherous snake beast into two!
At this moment, Big Goody and Huanhuan appeared.
The wolf beasts knew Huanhuan. When they saw her, they made way for her.
Meng Li immediately went forward and frowned. “Why are you here?”
“With what’s happening, of course, I have to take matters into my own hands.”
Huanhuan wanted to slide down the wolf’s tail to the ground like before, but thinking about the current situation, she thought it wouldn’t look good if she slid down with so many people looking at her.
She stretched out her arms and was carried down by Sang Ye.
......
The movements of the wolf beasts attracted Huai Shan’s attention. He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a petite female. Although half of her face was covered, he could tell from her eyes that she was a rare beauty.
Huai Shan smiled evilly. “Which female is this? She’s so beautiful!”
Huanhuan spoke calmly as if she did not see the greed in his eyes.
“Thank you for your kindness, Lord Oracle. You helped treat my people who suffered from dead blood disease. When Patriarch Shuang Yun returns, we’ll personally send crystals as repayment.”
Huai Shan said indifferently, “Who are you? Why should I listen to you?!”
“I’m a witch doctor of the Rock Wolf Tribe. I wonder if this identity makes me qualified to talk to you?”
Huai Shan was slightly stunned, then he burst out laughing. “A female can be a witch doctor? This is the funniest joke I’ve ever heard in my life! Hahahaha!”
He smiled fearlessly, completely disregarding this delicate female.
When he finished laughing, Huanhuan said again, “If you don’t believe me, you can ask the others in the Rock Wolf Tribe and see if I’m telling the truth.”
Meng Li immediately stood up and said loudly, “This female is the witch doctor of our Rock Wolf Tribe! It’s true!”
His disciple, Bei Chu, immediately echoed, “That’s right! She’s the witch doctor!”
The wolf beasts also agreed, saying that Huanhuan was the tribe’s witch doctor!
Although she had never officially taken on the role of a witch doctor in the past, she had always been the one to treat those in the tribe. It was precisely because of her superb medical skills that the population of the Rock Wolf Tribe had barely decreased in the past year.
In addition, she knew words and had a lot of knowledge. She was also willing to teach the children in the tribe. All the tribesmen respected her very much.
It could even be said that Huanhuan’s prestige in the Rock Wolf Tribe was no lower than Shuang Yun’s.
Since she said she was a witch doctor, she must be one!
No one in the Rock Wolf Tribe was more qualified to be a witch doctor than her!
Huai Shan’s expression gradually darkened. He stared into Huanhuan’s eyes. “Shuang Yun really let a female be a witch doctor? Has your Rock Wolf Tribe fallen to this state?”
In the face of his mockery, Huanhuan remained indifferent. “The position of witch doctor has always been for the capable. I have the ability and the prestige. Why can’t I be a witch doctor?”
“But you’re only a female! Females are born to stay at home and give birth! I’ve never heard of a female becoming a witch doctor!”
Huanhuan suddenly asked a completely unrelated question. “Have you heard the story of a frog at the bottom of a well?”
Huai Shan frowned. “What frog?”
“In the past, there was a frog who knew nothing else every since he was born. Every day, he would look up and see that the sky was as big as the well he was in. Hence, he assumed that the entire sky was only the size of the well. He was even smug about it and felt that he was really smart.”
At first, Huai Shan did not understand what this story meant. After a while, he reacted and was immediately furious. “You’re actually mocking me for being like that stupid frog!”
Huanhuan chuckled. “I’m just reminding you that there’s always someone better. You’ve never seen many magical things, but they really exist. Don’t be a frog in a well.”
She paused and turned to the children beside her. “Do you remember this?”
The children obediently replied, “Yes!”
“Mhm, how obedient ~”
Huai Shan felt that he was being underestimated by this small female. He gritted his teeth in anger. “You’re courting death!”
Huanhuan was still very calm. “Are you really going to fight us? Are you sure you can beat us?”
Not only were there nearly a hundred wolf beasts, but there were also more than a hundred feather beasts. They were all brave and good at fighting.
In comparison, Huai Shan’s guards were no match for them at all. As for the beasts who had changed sides, they were just a mob and not worth mentioning.
Huai Shan obviously understood that too, so he was prepared.
With a nasty smile, he grabbed Dong Ya’s hair and forced him to look up, revealing his old, haggard face.
“You know this guy, right? I’ll count to three. If you don’t get out of my way, I’ll twist his head off!”
As soon as Sang Ye saw Dong Ya’s face, he immediately whispered, “It’s a healing spell.”
Huanhuan glanced at him.
Sang Ye explained, “The prerequisite for casting a healing spell is to absorb the vitality of others. In order to cast the healing spell, Huai Shan absorbed Dong Ya’s vitality. Dong Ya is in danger now.”
Huanhuan glanced at Feng Lan and the other two unconscious wolf beasts. The three of them had probably lost their vitality like Dong Ya, which was why they were unconscious.
Huanhuan frowned at Huai Shan’s threat, but in the end, she chose to retreat.
The wolf beasts retreated with her.
Huai Shan laughed proudly and immediately strode into the rock mountain with his guards.
The moment they tried to enter the cave, the mutated creepers that were lying quietly on the rock wall suddenly raised their vines and rushed out. They wrapped them around Huai Shan’s neck and pulled him over!
Something big happened at this moment!
The guards reacted quickly and immediately rushed over to save him.
Sang Ye took the opportunity to transform into a snake beast and quickly darted over. He swept Dong Ya, Feng Lan, and the others away and returned to the cave.
The guards tore off the vines and saved Huai Shan.
But when they came back to their senses, they found that the hostages had been rescued.
Huai Shan kicked the guard beside him angrily. “Useless fool!”
