Sovereign of the Heaven - C271

“I never thought that Elder Ting and Elder Hong would actually prepare to re-select the Patriarch’s successor. It looks like we have a chance.”

“Forget it. You also know that the requirements to become the Patriarch are very harsh. Do you think that the two Elders’ assessment will be easy?”

The news of the exam was spread all over the Witch race. The young generation was very excited, but there were some people who did not intend to take part in the exam. Everyone knew that the examination would not be easy, so there were not many people who would actually take the examination.

However, she didn’t expect that the two elders would actually prepare to retake the exam. This was also normal, after all, Jie Long also knew that she had been gone for too long, but she really didn’t have confidence in taking the exam.

Although Herba Hydrae was not satisfied with what she had done, the problem was that no one could change the decision between Clan Elder Hong and Clan Elder Ting, even the Acting Clan Chief Yan Zhen had to listen to it.

“Elder Hong and Elder Ting are preparing to re-select the Patriarch’s successor, Jie Duo. This assessment must not be easy. You must be careful.”

Inside a yurt, Herba Hydrae said sincerely: “This Yan Huai always wanted to kill you, so you be careful.”

She was not afraid of danger, she only wanted to take back the position of clan leader.

“Oh, that’s right,” Di Chen asked. “Herba Hydrae, didn’t the two elders say how the assessment would be conducted?”

Herba Hydrae shook her head: “In the past, choosing the position of Patriarch always depended on talent, but this is the first time I have said that I would take the examination, but I can roughly guess.”

Speaking of which, Herba Hydrae’s face became solemn, and after a moment of silence, she said: “The two elders must want the examinees to enter Temple of Magi.”

Hearing the name Temple of Magi, Jie Wei’s face was filled with fear.

Di Chen frowned: “Where exactly is this Temple of Magi, Jie Long seems to be very afraid.”

Herba Hydrae explained: “You know that our Witch race worships the Sorcerer, and the Temple of Magi is the place where we worship the Sorcerer. Just many years ago, the Sorcerer was already abandoned and had been closed up by us, and that place is extremely dangerous.

It was said that one of the people who entered the Temple of Magi to offer sacrifices died in the night. No one knew the reason, but afterwards, every single person who entered the Temple of Magi would die one after another, and the Temple of Magi became more and more evil, which was why the Witch race closed the Temple of Magi.

“What?” When Di Chen heard this, he stood up. If even the Herba Hydrae was going to die, then how terrifying would the Temple of Magi be?

Di Chen shot a glance at Jie Gen. He was very clear that the latter had some special abilities, but its combat ability was weak, so he would definitely die if he entered the Temple of Magi. Furthermore, that crafty Yan Hui would definitely attack Jie Gen.

“Can I go in?” Di Chen asked, he wanted to protect Jie Wei as well so that they would be safe.

The Herba Hydrae was startled, she did not expect Di Chen to say such words. She stayed silent for a while and said: “The Temple of Magi is the most sacred place in our Witch race, although it is currently abandoned, but in the end, it is still a place that cannot be invaded by the Witch race, and outsiders cannot enter.

However, Herba Hydrae also knew that the possibility of the two elders agreeing was relatively low. After all, allowing an outsider to enter the Temple of Magi was against the laws of the Witch race.

But then again, it was the same for the others who were in danger from Jie Dui. Jie Dui’s magic was not weak, at least he had a chance, but Jie Duo had wasted a lot of insect Gu, so he had to prepare more during this period of time.

In a yurt.

There was still some time left for the assessment, and in the past two days, Di Chen had been reading and writing, all for the purpose of raising his cultivation.

“How long are you planning to stay here? Don’t you want to snatch the Shanghai Sword Pavilion’s medallion back?”

Luo Yumeng had been accompanying Di Chen all this time, she was not concerned with the matters of the Witch race, she only wanted to snatch back her own order badge, but Di Chen had yet to make a move.

Di Chen thought for a while and said: “Your order badge is in Hong, we need your help.”

During this time, Di Chen heard that the relationship between the Hong and him was not good, and there were often fights, so he wanted to use the Witch race to snatch back his order badge.

Luo Yumeng saw through Di Chen’s intention with a single glance, and said: “With your personality, even if you can’t get back the badge, you wouldn’t still wait like this. I think you’re worried about Jie Long, don’t you know that what you’re doing is very dangerous?”

In fact, according to Di Chen’s previous plans, he would definitely investigate the Hong first. But during this period of time, Di Chen had not moved at all, which made Luo Yumeng a little unhappy.

Furthermore, Di Chen was even prepared to help Jie Wei take the position of the junior family head. However, he would definitely offend Yan Huai, so it would be very dangerous for Di Chen, an outsider, to meddle in the affairs of the Witch race.

How could Di Chen not know how serious the matter is? He turned silent for a moment, then said to Luo Yumeng: “How about this, you go investigate the Hong first, if you can find any clues that might help us offend the order badge.”

Luo Yumeng didn’t want to stay in the Witch race in the first place, she had only painstakingly been drawn out by Jie Yuan. She didn’t dare to leave without Di Chen’s consent, so she said after thinking for a while, “This is for the best, I will quickly gather information about the Hong. It would be even better if we can snatch back the command medallion.”

Di Chen said seriously: “Then Yan Huai actually knows the reason why I’m here, I’m guessing he will think of a way to deal with the two of us, how about you leave this place right now.”

Luo Yumeng nodded, but in truth, she had already felt Yan Huai’s killing intent.

“Also, this Eastern Desolation is filled with people from all over. Be careful.”

Di Chen reminded her. Earlier, a patriarch of the poor race almost killed Luo Yumeng, with her cultivation, she would definitely be in danger if she were to barge into the Eastern Desolation alone.

“I know, you should be careful as well,” Luo Yumeng nodded, still left the Witch race. In her opinion, staying in the Witch race was actually dangerous, after all, it was obvious that someone from the Witch race wanted to kill him.

Luo Yumeng had still left the Witch race, and just as she walked out, she met You Mo and Yan Hui.

“Where is Miss Yu Meng going?” Yan Hui looked at Luo Yumeng playfully.

Luo Yumeng was very clear that Yan Hui already had the intention to kill him, and said with a smile: “I came to the Eastern Desolation this time because of some private matters, and because I met with danger earlier, I decided to travel with Di Chen, but since the danger has passed, there is no need for me to stay.”

Yan Hui made an ‘oh’ sound, he did not intend to persuade her to stay, so he smiled and said: “Lady Yu Meng, please leave.”

Luo Yumeng left with a smile, but just as she left, her eyes turned cold. She could hear that Yan Hui really wanted to kill her earlier.

Yan Hui looked at Luo Yumeng’s back, and laughed: “She is smart, running pretty fast, just that…”

His gaze once again fell on the yurt where Di Chen was and coldly said: “That guy won’t be tactful then.”

You Mo narrowed his eyes and said, “We can’t let him live …”

Yan Hui did not wait for him to finish speaking before reaching out to stop him from continuing. “Don’t speak nonsense, I know what I’m doing.”

You Mo knew that Yan Hui had already planned for this, and kept his words.

After Luo Yumeng left, Jie Qian walked in. She didn’t really like Luo Yumeng, so when she was around, Jie Wei usually didn’t come in.

“Big brother Di Chen, are you free?” Jie Qian asked blankly.

Di Chen laughed: “What is it?”

Jie Wei said: “Tomorrow is the examination day, I do not have confidence, I want you to accompany me to catch a purple blood worm to come back.”

In fact, many people in Witch race wanted to catch purple blood worm and refine it into a parasite. However, there were too few of these poisonous insects, and they were also too dangerous, so no one dared to capture them. Jie Duo really didn’t have any confidence this time, so he wanted to take the risk.

“Alright,” Di Chen agreed without hesitation. He thought that he might not be able to help Jie Qian pass the examination, so he could only do his best to help her raise her strength.

Jie Qian laughed happily and pulled Di Chen out.

At this time, Zha Zhu walked over, looked at Jie Wei and asked: “Jie Wei, Big Brother Di Chen, where are you guys going?”

Jie Qian explained: “Big Brother Di Chen and I will go catch the purple blood worm.”

Zha Zhu’s expression changed when she heard this, and advised: “Jie Wei, you’re too reckless. It’s not like you don’t know how dangerous this purple blood worm is, its poison has no antidote, so I think it’s better if you don’t go. Herba Hydrae will definitely not let you go.”

Witch race had always been good at refining Insect Gu, but there had yet to be anyone who could refine a purple blood worm into a Insect Gu. Even Herba Hydrae did not dare to, since it was too dangerous, and there was no cure for its poison.

Jie Qian shook his head: “Without purple blood worm, I have no confidence. Although this insect is dangerous, it’s not like I don’t have the chance. I must go.”

Zha Zhu originally wanted to advise her against it, but seeing that Jie Wei’s heart had made up her mind, she could only change her words: “Then I’ll accompany you.”

The three of them then headed off in a certain direction.

Not far away, Yan Hui frowned as he looked at Jie Wei’s back, and said: “I wonder what the hell they are trying to do.”

When he thought about how he almost killed You Mo earlier, he became a little worried. Although this fellow looked weak, he was actually very strong.

You Mo said indifferently: “Who cares what they are up to, I don’t believe they can pose any threat to us.”

Yan Hui shook his head: “Although that woman has left, we cannot be careless.”

When everyone saw Luo Yumeng leaving the Witch race, Yan Hui heaved a sigh of relief. At least Yan Hui did not need to think of a way to kill him.

You Mo laughed: Didn’t you already catch the Water Pattern Spider, the insect’s poison is very strong, the moment you get poisoned, you will definitely die, in Witch race, other than the Herba Hydrae and the two elders, no one else can refine the Water Pattern Spider into a parasite, with this insect, why are you afraid of them?

Yan Hui took out a small bottle. The bottle was filled with water and a white spider was soaking in the water, upon seeing the spider, Yan Hui immediately smiled, if the two elders were to see the Water Pattern Spider, they would be surprised, right?

There was no one in the younger generation of Witch race who could refine a Worm Gu stronger than the Water Pattern Spider.

Yan Hui stared at Di Chen’s back. Previously, he had already wanted to kill Di Chen, but he had never had the chance.
