Reincarnated as a Divine Tree

Chapter 17: We want to go too!

Chapter 17: We want to go too!

When all changes ceased, a glimmer of light slowly ascended above.

Another new day had dawned.

Feeling the changes within himself, Noah Ji was overjoyed.

Indeed, vitality was his foundation.

Deduction was beneficial, but one must not overindulge.

Inside the Li Clan, Joshua Li sat in the central chair of the main hall, his gaze fixed ahead but unfocused, lost in thought.

At that moment, a clan member entered:

“Report to the Clan Chief, there has been no movement from the Chen Clan.”

Joshua Li’s eyes gradually regained focus, but upon hearing the report from the clan member below, his face did not show joy; instead, he frowned slightly.

He had speculated on several current situations of the Chen Clan.

He had considered the possibility that the Chen Clan would fight desperately, gathering all their warriors to carve a bloody path out.

He had also thought that the Chen Clan might secretly send someone out to seek external assistance.

If it were indeed these two scenarios, it would mean that the Chen Clan truly had no way out.

But regardless of the situation, it should not be as it was now, completely silent, like still water.

Too quiet, unsettlingly so, but he had no idea what the Chen Clan was planning.

Could it be they were waiting for something? Or trying to outlast them?

With the Chen Clan’s food supplies, they should not be able to hold out past tomorrow.

In contrast, his Li Clan had warriors with abundant Qi and Blood and sufficient food. Over the long term, the Chen Clan’s situation would only weaken further.

Joshua Li pondered from every angle but could not figure out the reason.

He wanted to discuss it with someone, but thinking of the others in the clan, they would probably just say:

“Clan Chief, no need for words, let’s just storm in and trample them!”

Joshua Li shook his head, dismissing the thought.

“Go, send a few nimble people to scout nearby, preferably to get a clear understanding of the situation inside the Chen Clan and observe the condition of their warriors.”

“Yes!”

After issuing the order, Joshua Li chuckled at himself.

Now that the Chen Clan was at the end of its rope, their downfall was just a matter of time. Perhaps he was worrying too much.

Half a day later, news arrived.

According to the clan member’s description, the once bustling Chen Clan square was now deserted, and the warriors seen were tense, pale, and full of worry, clearly showing signs of Qi and Blood decline.

Hearing this, Joshua Li felt much more at ease.

If that was the case, then he would wait another two days, and then he could easily eradicate the Chen Clan.

Just in time, two people in his clan were about to make a breakthrough in the next two days!

Then he would see how the Chen Clan would cope!

Thinking of this, Joshua Li’s lips curled into a slight smile.

“Alexander, what do you think our father and uncles have been up to lately, all secretive?”

In the pavilion, Lucas Chen spoke, his eyes filled with confusion.

Usually, the clan would be on high alert, and he would occasionally see his father and uncles rushing about.

But these past two days, he had not seen them at all.

This was too unreasonable.

Before Alexander Chen could reply, Lucas Chen continued:

“No, I must go see tonight, maybe my father and the others are plotting something shady!”

As a member of the clan, although he was young and of low Realm, he felt it was necessary to be aware of the clan’s current plans, especially with the clan’s survival at stake.

Night fell quickly.

The ancestral hall, quiet during the day, now seemed a bit crowded.

In addition to the few who had gone hunting the day before, there were several more Body Tempering Realm warriors from the clan.

Ethan Chen stood at the forefront, and when he saw the Sacred Tree of the clan sprout new branches, he could hardly conceal his joy.

This meant his sacrifice yesterday was correct, and the changes in the Sacred Tree also represented the clan’s hope, so tonight he called a few more people to hunt more fierce beasts.

“Clan Chief, during the day, our people spotted someone from the Li Clan spying.”

Upon hearing this, the joy on Ethan Chen’s face faded, but he still nodded.

“It doesn’t matter.”

This was within his expectations. It would be strange if the Li Clan did nothing.

But he was not worried, as most of the clan members were unaware of the specifics of hunting in the secret passage; as long as they acted as usual, that was enough.

And after the spying, the Li Clan did not attack, indicating they had not noticed anything and were still waiting for an opportunity.

But this was not only an opportunity for the Li Clan but also for his Chen Clan.

If they could seize it well, the clan might turn defeat into victory.

Today’s hunt was even more crucial!

Otherwise, the clan would run out of food tomorrow, and with the clan members’ Qi and Blood not flourishing, hunting would be difficult, and the situation would only worsen.

Under the dark night sky, a crescent moon hung aloft.

The branches and leaves of the Sacred Tree of the clan once again emitted a faint luminescence.

Ethan Chen’s gaze sharpened, no longer hesitating, he immediately waved his hand:

“Let’s go!”

“Clan Chief, I want to go too!”

Just as everyone was preparing to enter the secret passage, a figure walked into the ancestral hall.

“Oliver? Why are you here?”

Ethan Chen asked in surprise upon seeing the newcomer.

“Today, the Li Clan sent someone to scout, and it’s unlikely they will attack tonight. Since that’s the case, I might as well go hunting too.”

After hearing this, Ethan Chen nodded slightly, then hesitated and said,

“Although that’s true, however…”

“Hmm? Oliver, you’ve reached the late stage of the Blood Condensation Realm?”

Ethan Chen was halfway through speaking when he suddenly turned his gaze to Oliver Chen, whose Qi and Blood were even more robust than his, clearly a sign of advancement in Realm.

“Mm.”

After receiving Oliver Chen’s affirmative answer, Ethan Chen’s face lit up with joy, nodding repeatedly:

“Excellent! Excellent!”

“With your talent, our Chen Clan will surely prosper!”

“Since you wish to go, then go!”

The others around them were envious.

Many of the Body Tempering Realm warriors were his elders, yet there was a whole Realm difference between them.

Indeed, people should not be judged by the same standard.

Even Elijah Chen and Mason Chen were full of admiration:

“Big brother has a fine son.”

“It’s just a pity…”

Both had a look of reminiscence but said no more.

The clan had not had it easy these past ten years, losing countless members.

A flash of sorrow crossed Oliver Chen’s eyes as he heard the two talking.

The other clan members also fell silent, and the atmosphere grew heavy.

Just as Ethan Chen was about to speak and break the somber mood, a scream suddenly pierced the air.

“Ouch!”

Turning towards the sound, they saw two figures lying on the ground near the surrounding wall, as if they had fallen from above.

The two were Lucas Chen and Alexander Chen, who had come to eavesdrop on the conversation.

Now discovered, the two had a look of panic but still got up, standing tall and proud:

“Clan Chief, we want to go too!”

“Yes, we want to go.”

Before the Clan Chief could speak, Elijah Chen had already scolded:

“Nonsense!”

“This is a serious matter for the clan, not child’s play, go back at once!”

Lucas Chen did not back down but snorted:

“We are also members of the clan, we want to contribute, why can’t we go!”

“You, still talking back!”

Elijah Chen looked around urgently, his gaze finally resting on Noah Ji’s branches.

He hesitated for a long time but ultimately did not dare to act.
