The Longevity Family: Starting From The Branches And Leaves

Chapter 307: Saintess Chiyue

"Grandfather, I pay my respects!"

In the hall of the Rainbow Tribe, Chen Ling bowed respectfully.

Gao Yi hurriedly helped him up, with a sincere expression, he said, "Linger, you saved tens of thousands of our Rainbow Tribe people. Grandfather should be the one thanking you on behalf of the tribe."

"Grandfather is too kind!" Chen Ling smiled.

If they had arrived one step later last night, the fate of the Rainbow Tribe would have been unimaginable.

"Grandfather, are the tribe members willing to relocate to Yudie City?"

Chen Ling sat down on a chair and casually asked.

"I have already discussed it with the tribe members. We will first move a portion of the tribe, and then see how the situation develops."

Gao Yi's expression was solemn as he said with a bitter smile.

Chen Ling nodded. He wouldn't interfere with how the Rainbow Tribe made decisions like this.

Picking up a teacup, he took a few sips and said in a deep voice, "Grandfather, in five days, we will return to the Chen family. At that time, the tribe members will follow me."

"By the way, I hope that Grandfather can also come to Yudie City!"

From the memories of the Wolf Tribe leader, this Transcending Tribulation Blood Lotus was extremely important to Chiyue. If everything went as expected, the people of the Chiyang Tribe should come to the Rainbow Tribe within five days.

As for whether they would directly attack or use diplomacy first, he couldn't predict.

Even if they didn't come, with the passage to the Ruins Secret Realm in his hands, they would have reservations and wouldn't dare to harm the Rainbow Tribe.

But just in case, he still hoped that Gao Yi would accompany him to Yudie City.

Gao Yi shook his head and said decisively, "As the patriarch, I cannot abandon other tribe members. Besides, at my age, there is nothing to fear!"

Seeing Gao Yi's resolute expression, Chen Ling didn't say much.

As long as he informed Gao Yi about the passage before leaving.

With this bargaining chip in hand, the Rainbow Tribe wouldn't face too much risk.

Afterwards, Chen Ling took his leave.

Two days later.

"They're here!"

Chen Ling, who was meditating in his room, suddenly opened his eyes, a hint of seriousness flashing in his pupils.

Just now, the three-colored Jade Butterflies that were patrolling around him sent him a message through their thoughts, saying that a Great Monster was rapidly approaching the Rainbow Tribe.

At the same time, he released his divine sense and sent a message to Gao Yi, Wei Wenwu, and others, asking them to prepare for battle.

Standing up, he quickly leaped towards the city wall.

At this moment, an extremely powerful and unmatched demonic sense swept over him.

In his sea of consciousness, the golden light of the Soul Tree flickered and directly annihilated this demonic sense.

"Rank Four Late Stage Demonic Beast."

Chen Ling relaxed. He was originally preparing to summon the Azure Flood Dragon, but his thoughts dissipated.

Although this demonic sense was extremely condensed, it was only at the Rank Four Late Stage cultivation level.

He was more than capable of dealing with it.

As long as it wasn't that Rank Five Mid Stage Crimson Blood Golden Crow, there wouldn't be a problem.

If it really was that Rank Five Golden Crow, then it would be troublesome.

Even though he had many means now, it would still be a difficult battle.

But the prerequisite was that the Chiyang Tribe only sent one tribe saint beast.

If the other two Rank Five Barbarian Cultivators also came, then he could only prepare to escape.

But at this point, there was no other way.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Ling calmed his nervous emotions.

He quickly leaped towards the city wall.

After sweeping over the Rainbow Tribe, the massive demonic sense quickly retreated.

Chen Ling was also quite surprised.

"Linger!"

On the city wall, Gao Yi, with a serious expression, called out to Chen Ling.

Although Chen Ling had displayed formidable strength, he had no confidence when it came to facing the Chiyang Tribe.

Even though the Rainbow Formation had been repaired, it wouldn't have much effect against a Rank Five Bone Artifact.

A Rank Five tribe that has stood in the ancient jungle for thousands of years is not something that their Rainbow Tribe can deal with.

In the next moment, figures landed on the city wall.

Wang Yun, Li Yourong, Wei Wenwu, and others all arrived.

They stared at the sky with solemn expressions.

"Husband!"

Wang Yun and the others walked behind Chen Ling, their eyes filled with concern.

After two days of rest, their cultivation had also recovered to the seventh or eighth level.

"It's okay, just listen to my arrangements later!"

Chen Ling smiled.

However, this place was still the territory of the Rainbow Tribe, and he couldn't act rashly before understanding the intentions of the Chi Yang Tribe.

After all, it involved the life and death of tens of thousands of Rainbow Tribe members.

"Hoo hoo!"

Suddenly, a series of eerie and piercing sounds echoed in the air, like the howling of a ghost and the howling of a wolf.

They struck the Rainbow Defense Barrier, creating a deafening roar.

The Rainbow Barrier shone brightly, but in just a few breaths, only a thin layer remained, like a piece of thin paper.

Chen Ling's gaze slightly condensed, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

As his divine sense swept over, he saw only two auras several miles away, but both were exceptionally powerful.

Above the sky, a huge fiery red light, like a small sun, bloomed with intense brilliance and was quickly flying towards the Rainbow City.

Clouds churned violently around it, like boiling hot water in a pot, rolling and sweeping.

The terrifying momentum was like a sun in the void, descending rapidly with astonishing power.

As the small sun approached, the entire Rainbow Tribe was enveloped in a frantic red glow.

Chen Ling focused his gaze and saw a golden crow with a body as red as blood, its eyes as red as lanterns. Its red feathers were like crimson blades, shining with a reddish-golden light.

It was about twenty zhang long, like a small red warship.

On its back sat a woman in a red dress.

The woman appeared to be twenty-five or twenty-six years old.

She wore a thin red dress, with a black animal skin belt tied around her slender waist. Her eyes were like ripples in autumn, full of spirituality, with a hint of depth and charm.

Her chest was full and proud, rising and falling with each breath.

The girl's vibrant spirituality and the captivating charm of a mature woman were naturally displayed in her.

There was also a Rank Four Late Stage Demonic Beast and a Rank Five Early Stage Barbarian Cultivator.

Facing the Rank Five Barbarian Cultivator, Chen Ling's divine sense only swept past without stopping.

"Chi Ye!"

Chen Ling frowned, his face darkened, and he immediately muttered.

He never expected that this woman would be so bold as to come alone.

But thinking about it, he understood. After all, this woman was a Rank Five Barbarian Cultivator.

In the savage jungle, Rank Five Barbarian Cultivators were few and far between.

They had the strength to rampage.

And it was said that she also mastered the technique of the Golden Armored Barbarian Soldiers.

She could summon a large number of troops at any time.

Coupled with the red-blooded golden crow, with its mysterious bloodline, it was obviously not lower than the Earth Rank.

The power of its bloodline Divine Ability was also absolutely not low.

Based on his understanding of the Golden Fire Crow, the innate flame of this red-blooded golden crow was at least at the Rank Four Late Stage.

And the Divine Ability it condensed seemed to be related to demonic perception.

Just now, that demonic perception sweep, an ordinary Rank Four Late Stage Demonic Beast would not necessarily be able to do it.

If it suddenly concentrated its attack on a Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivator, it was afraid that the sea of consciousness would be pierced through and they would die instantly.

"Ling'er, this woman is the Saintess of the Chi Yang Tribe, Chi Ye, and that Demonic Beast is the new generation of the red-blooded golden crow."

Gao Yi couldn't even look directly at the Chi Yang in the air, his expression solemn as he spoke to Chen Ling, his body trembling slightly.

Chen Ling nodded, his divine sense swept over, and he already understood the opponent's background.

With a thought, he summoned the Green Flood Dragon.

Chant!

A dragon's roar resounds through the empty sky.

The massive body of the Flood Dragon emerges in the air.

It hovers in the sky, its entire body covered in green scales that emit a green-golden radiance, giving off a divine and extraordinary aura.

Its thunderous dragon eyes, filled with lightning, fixate on the Scarlet Blood Golden Crow, emitting a dragon's roar.

Surrounding its dragon claws, violent thunderous energy swirls and howls.

In the face of the Scarlet Blood Golden Crow, the Flood Dragon is faintly excited.

Just two days ago, it had eaten two Rank Four Demonic Beasts, and now it has food delivered to its doorstep.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, the Scarlet Blood Golden Crow and the Flood Dragon, still several miles apart, let out a loud cry.

Immediately after, a flame shoots out from its mouth.

Like a raging sea of fire, it surges from the sky, heading straight for the Flood Dragon.

The rolling flames turn the sky red, and the surging flames resemble a thousand galloping warhorses, charging forward with an overwhelming momentum.

The overwhelming flames envelop an area of tens of zhang.

In the piercing screech, a towering wave of fire rises, condensing into the illusion of a formidable Golden Crow.

"Sizzle!"

The Golden Crow formed by the Scarlet Blood Golden Crow's innate spirit flame exudes a terrifying destructive power, and it crashes towards the Flood Dragon.

Seeing this, the Flood Dragon's body emits a bright thunderous light, and at the same time, it lets out a deafening dragon's roar.

Amidst the shining thunderous scales, a thunderous energy shoots out from its mouth.

With a swing of its dragon tail, the surging thunderous energy instantly condenses into a gigantic thunderous blade tens of zhang long.

With a majestic momentum, it slashes towards the Golden Crow.

Boom!

In the next moment, the two terrifying attacks, capable of destroying heaven and earth, collide in the high sky.

Terrifying energy radiates in all directions, and thunderous energy and flames fill the sky.

After a brief confrontation, both attacks slowly dissipate.

This strike seems to be evenly matched.

However, those who know the attributes of these two Demonic Beasts can discern their relative strength.

On one hand, the Scarlet Blood Golden Crow's attack is fueled by its innate spirit flame, while the Flood Dragon's attack is just a regular one.

Furthermore, the Flood Dragon has only just reached Rank Four Late Stage, and its mastery of its own strength is not yet perfect.

It also lacks experience in facing enemies.

So, although it appears to be evenly matched, the Flood Dragon clearly has the upper hand.

Seeing this scene, surprise appears on the face of the girl on the Scarlet Blood Golden Crow's back.

The Scarlet Blood Golden Crow, an Earth Rank Middle Grade bloodline.

In terms of actual combat power, it is even stronger than an Earth Rank High Grade Demonic Beast.

It is one of the few beings that can contend with Demonic Beasts of astronomical bloodlines.

The Primordial Golden Crow Divine Beast is even on par with the true dragon, an ancient giant monster.

But in this remote and desolate small tribe, a Rank Four Late Stage Flood Dragon has appeared.

This is truly beyond her expectations.

No wonder both the Silver Wolf Tribe and the Thunderous Serpent Tribe were defeated.

And they dare to confront the Scarlet Sun Tribe head-on, seemingly fearless.

"Hehe, do you really think that having a Rank Four Flood Dragon here can contend against my Scarlet Sun Tribe?"

The woman coldly snorts.

"Chixia, show them what we're capable of!"

As her voice falls, the Scarlet Blood Golden Crow lets out a roar, clearly angered by the previous attack.

Its wings flap, and its body is engulfed in a blaze of flames, instantly disappearing within the flames.

Then, a fierce Golden Crow illusion roars out from within the flames.

Compared to before, this illusion has become more solid and powerful.

It seems like a living Scarlet Blood Golden Crow, flapping its fiery wings and rushing towards the Flood Dragon.

However, what awaits it is the Flood Dragon's thunderous giant claw, condensed into a gigantic thunderous blade tens of zhang long, unparalleled in sharpness.

Boom!

With a fierce clash, the Golden Crow's flames instantly burst open, turning into flames that gradually dissipated.

But the Thunder Blade continued to slash towards the Golden Crow.

As the Thunder Blade struck down, a red light flashed on the woman's forehead, and a red flame flew out, rapidly transforming into a tens of zhang long Flood Dragon made of fire.

It instantly collided with the Thunder Blade.

This seemingly inconspicuous flame was just as powerful as the violent Golden Crow from earlier.

Boom!

It collided heavily with the Thunder Blade.

After a few breaths, the two gradually dissipated.

"I, the Saintess of the Chi Yang Tribe, have come to visit. Why did your Seven-Colored Tribe attack me?" The woman's face sank as she spoke to the people on the city wall. Her voice was crisp and pleasant, but filled with anger.

"I am Gao Yi, the chief of the Seven-Colored Tribe. I pay my respects to the Saintess!" Gao Yi bowed hurriedly and spoke with utmost respect.

"Hmph, since you know who I am, why don't you open the formation and let me in?" Chi Ye's beautiful eyes swept across the sky, showing some fear as she spoke.

Although her tone sounded angry, she no longer had the imposing manner she had before.

"Ling'er, what do you think?" Gao Yi hurriedly asked for Chen Ling's opinion.

Chen Ling nodded slightly.

Facing Chi Ye alone, she was not afraid.

She dared to come alone, so what was there to fear?

"Saintess, you have misunderstood. The area around the tribe has not been safe recently, so the defensive formation has always been activated." Gao Yi's face was filled with sincere fear.

Then, he controlled the formation disk and slowly retracted the Seven-Colored Defense Formation.

Wang Yun and the others stood behind Chen Ling in tacit agreement, ready to take action at any time.

The blue Flood Dragon slowly circled around Chen Ling, its eyes gleaming with a fierce light as it stared intently at the Golden Crow and the woman in red.

The Golden Crow slowly descended, and Chi Ye's gaze swept across everyone before finally falling on Chen Ling. Her pleasant voice rang out again, "Don't panic, everyone. I came here this time just to inquire about the situation of the Wolf Tribe's chief."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ling couldn't help but relax.

From the tone of this woman, she could tell that there had been a turning point in the situation.

Perhaps she also feared the strength of the blue Flood Dragon.

Gao Yi's face was filled with even more smiles, as if a burden had been lifted from his shoulders.

"This Fellow Daoist, our Savage Tribe has always been straightforward. I want to ask, is the Wolf Tribe's bone ring in your hands?" The woman's gaze was fixed on Chen Ling as she spoke calmly.

Chen Ling's thoughts stirred slightly. This woman was so straightforward, she must know that the bone ring was in her hands.

Her gaze then swept over the Golden Crow, and she immediately understood.

It must be the drop of Golden Crow's blood on her body that made the Golden Crow sense it.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have leaked out.

Since that was the case, there was no need for her to hide it, so she nodded.

"Good, as long as you give me the bone ring, I will leave this place and no longer interfere in the affairs of the Seven-Colored Tribe!"

"And I will also give Fellow Daoist some tribe treasures as an exchange!"

A hint of joy flashed in Chi Ye's eyes as she spoke slowly.

Chen Ling pondered for a moment and clasped her hands, "Saintess Chi, let's discuss this in the main hall."

According to the information provided by Mu Lan and the others, Chi Ye was indeed a woman of her word.

But Chi Shu relied solely on personal preferences and was unpredictable in his killings.

Chi Ye agreed, but Chi Shu might not.

So it was necessary to establish a contract to prevent the opponent from turning the tables later.

Moreover, she could hand over the secret realm teleportation bone artifact, but she still had to fight for the Rank Five Golden Flame Vein.

Chi Ye's gaze swept across Chen Ling, then leaped down from the back of the Golden Crow and followed them into the city.
