Chapter 1736 Blood Oath


Chapter 1736 Blood Oath

Ji Xiaoyan could actually guess a thing or two about the reason why Nightmare Foil was avoiding people from the Juli tribe.

The magic prohibition disk usually has no effect, but in this situation, it is a golden hen that can lay eggs. Once you have tasted the huge benefits it brings, as a player, how could you give such a treasure away just because of a word from the NPC?

Wouldn’t that give away all your future interests?

If it were her, she wouldn't be able to return it.

Therefore, Ji Xiaoyan finally shook his head at the patriarch of the Juli clan, and then said: "Master, that's it. Let them all come back. There is no need to guard outside Duyun Town anymore. Those adventurers are I don’t think it’s impossible to return the magic forbidden disk to you. There’s no need to waste time.”

The leader of the Juli clan was a little unwilling. He was silent for a moment and said to Ji Xiaoyan: “The newly captured town needs teleporters to rebuild the teleportation array. Only those adventurers can use it. We have already dealt with the teleportation array, so they will definitely invite the teleportation array to enter Duyun Town. As soon as those teleportation masters arrive, we will definitely be able to seize the teleportation array and enter Duyun Town with them."

"It's useless." Ji Xiaoyan sighed, " If the teleporters can't get in, they'll have to wait in the town. Moreover, if Duyun Town itself has a more accomplished teleporter, all your plans will be useless, Patriarch!"

The leader of the Juli clan is still unwilling.

“I still don’t believe that adventurers like them can stay in Duyun Town like this for the rest of their lives.”

Ji Xiaoyan shook his head and sighed: "Maybe they can stay that long? We don't have time to spend with them!"

The leader of the Juli clan raised his eyes and looked at Ji Xiaoyan intently, with a puzzled look on his face.

"The Fox Clan and Sha City have both come. Next, our Qingcheng's attitude towards them will eventually be noticed by them. By then, it will be time to start a war. While it is still calm outside, let's They all come back." Ji Xiaoyan said to the leader of the Juli clan with a solemn face, "We are going to start preparing for war."

The leader of the Juli clan looked at Ji in surprise. Xiaoyan asked with some uncertainty: "Is what the Lord of the City said true? Are we going to fight the Fox Clan and Sha City?"

"Maybe." Ji Xiaoyan muttered conservatively, Then he said: "Before the war begins, we still need to do a lot of things. Later, General Manager Qing Gong will give you a charter for the Juli clan. You can start preparing according to General Manager Qing Gong's instructions."

Although the leader of the Juli Clan was a little reluctant, he finally nodded with the overall situation in mind, and then asked Ji Xiaoyan again before leaving: "Mr. City Lord, those people from the Muxian Clan have been staying here for several days. What do you think of them?" No plans? ”
"Plan?" Ji Xiaoyan was stunned for a moment and looked at the Juli clan leader with some confusion: "I heard that they have been honest in Qingcheng recently and haven't caused any trouble! Why does the clan leader say such a thing? ”

The leader of the Juli tribe thought about it. Ji Xiaoyan said: "People from the Muxian tribe occasionally come to visit our Juli tribe, and many people in the tribe have chatted with them. I heard that the settlement area of ​​the Muxian tribe has been occupied by other races, and it is impossible for them to go back. That's why I came to Qingcheng. It's just that you, Lord City Lord, have never been there. They expressed their willingness to accept them, so they are a little uneasy. They have been coming to our Juli clan frequently these days and want me to bring you a message to ask them when they can officially become a member of Qingcheng."
< br>Ji Xiaoyan rolled his eyes and remained silent for a moment.

“Does the City Lord think there is something wrong with the Osmanthus Clan?” the chief of the Juli Clan asked doubtfully.

"The Osmanthus Clan had a good relationship with the Fox Clan before." Ji Xiaoyan thought for a while and said honestly: "During the Fox Clan's celebration, I met the Muxian Clan there. I'm just worried about how they will come now. If you take refuge in Qingcheng, will there be any shadow of the Fox clan behind you?"

"Ying? Isn’t it?”

“Who can tell clearly? What we know about the Osmanthus Clan is what they say. None of us have the right to decide whether it is true or not.”< br>
The leader of the Juli clan thought about it, nodded, and said one more sentence to Ji Xiaoyan before leaving: "Lord City Lord, I think it is not a long-term solution to leave them hanging in Qingcheng like this. If you are willing to accept them, accept them, and let them do what they should do for Qingcheng; if they are not willing to accept it, leave them here. There's no point in clearing the city. If it's as you said, Lord City Lord, then, if they and If there is any connection with the Fox Clan, it will be a problem!”

Ji Xiaoyan nodded, sighed and sent away the leader of the Juli Clan. He sat alone in the palace of the City Lord and thought for a long time before taking him. Shang Jiajia and Frisman walked all the way out of the city lord's mansion and went to the area where the Muxian tribe temporarily lived.

When Ji Xiaoyan arrived, the leader of the Muxian tribe was not there. He heard that he went to a store in Qingcheng to buy things.

A woman from the Muxian tribe brought Ji Xiaoyan into the house and stayed with her all the way. After waiting for a long time, she saw the leader of the Muxian tribe running back in a panic, and said to Ji Xiaoyan with an extremely apologetic look on his face: "Lord City Lord , I didn’t know you were coming.”

“It’s okay.” Ji Xiaoyan nodded, asked the leader of the Mulberry Clan to sit down, and started chatting with him. It seemed like he was just passing by, so he came. Just talk to him.

However, the chief of the Muxian tribe had always been thinking about joining Qingcheng, so seeing that Ji Xiaoyan basically had nothing to talk about on his own initiative, the chief of the Muxian tribe hurriedly spoke, with a hint of worry. He said to Ji Xiaoyan: "Lord City Lord, we are in Qingcheng We have lived here for a long time. Do you think we will become a formal member of Qingcheng? To be honest, the clan members feel uneasy about living here these days, and they all urge me to confirm this status quickly. Come down."

Ji Xiaoyan smiled slightly and said nothing.

The leader of the Muxian tribe was a little anxious, thought for a moment, and continued to Ji Xiaoyan: "We have heard a lot of rumors in Qingcheng these days. The relationship between the city lord and the Fox tribe does not seem to be that good. Our Muxian tribe used to It is indeed somewhat related to the Fox Clan, but I swear in the name of the Lord God that our Osmanthus Clan is really It was only because our ancestors were kind to the Fox Clan that we were reluctantly invited to the celebration... The relationship between our Osmanthus Clan and the Fox Clan is not good!"

"Actually, there is a Fox Clan! In this relationship, why would the clan leader be so reluctant?" Ji Xiaoyan smiled slightly and said to the clan leader of the Osmanthus clan with squinted eyes. "Lord City Lord..." The leader of the Mulberry Clan shook his head bitterly and said to Ji Xiaoyan: "The Fox Clan itself is not willing to accept our Mulberry Clan, so why should we shamelessly ask for it again? Now our clan's land No more, the fox clan is more It’s impossible for them to be willing to take us in. We’ve seen clearly the true face of the Fox Clan, and we really don’t want to look for them anymore!”

Ji Xiaoyan looked seriously into the eyes of the leader of the Muxian Clan! , observed carefully.

For Qingcheng, it is naturally good to have one more racial ally. Not to mention, this Osmanthus clan is directly attached to their Qingcheng. This is more worthy of having than an alliance, but her only worry is that She was sincere, and she didn't want to attract another race with the same thoughts as Xiye to stay in her Qingcheng.

Thinking of this, Ji Xiaoyan did not go around in circles with the chief of the Muxian tribe, and said directly: "Master, I will tell you directly. I have never promised you to join Qingcheng. I am just worried about whether you have different intentions! If you can prove that you If you can find a way to guarantee that you will never betray me or Qingcheng, then I will let you become a member of Qingcheng. Otherwise, when the lockdown ends, I can only ask you to find another place. "

After hearing this, the leader of the Muxian tribe stood up in surprise and immediately smiled at Ji Xiaoyan: "Okay, okay, okay, as long as City Lord Ji is willing to let us stay, we of the Muxian tribe will naturally I am willing to stand with you forever. As for this proof of intention, I wonder if the Lord of the City is willing to accept the blood oath from our Osmanthus clan? "

"Blood oath?" Ji Xiaoyan was a little curious.

When Frisman heard this, he hurriedly leaned into Ji Xiaoyan’s ear and explained to her: “This blood oath is actually an oath sworn by the whole clan with blood, in order to be witnessed by the Lord God. The highest standard among the oaths, if the Osmanthus Clan is willing to pledge their blood to Qingcheng, then you don’t have to worry, Xiaoyan. Will they betray you?"

Ji Xiaoyan raised his eyebrows, blinked, and then smiled and nodded to the leader of the Osmanthus clan: "In that case, the leader will decide when to arrange it. After taking the oath, I agree that the Osmanthus Clan will officially become a part of Qingcheng!”

"We can start right away. Lord City Lord, please wait a moment. I will call all the tribesmen over immediately." The chief of the Muxian tribe said excitedly to Ji Xiaoyan, turned around and immediately left the house, leaving a somewhat surprised Ji Xiaoyan. Xiaoyan turned to look at Frisman.

“Don’t you need to prepare for this kind of blood oath for several days?”

“No, just need the whole clan to be here.” Frisman shook his head and said Zhu Ji Xiaoyan said: "At that time, no one will drop a drop of blood. It will all be mixed in a vessel, and then the clan leader will swear an oath to complete it. This oath is binding on everyone who drops blood."

Ji Xiaoyan nodded in understanding, and then asked a little strangely: "Then why didn't your leader of the undead clan get this blood oath for me in the first place?"

Frisman couldn't help but turn over. He rolled his eyes and said to Ji Xiaoyan: "Our undead tribe is in alliance with Qingcheng, and we don't want to be affiliated with Qingcheng. Naturally, we don't need this blood oath of the whole tribe!"

When Ji Xiaoyan heard this, he said awkwardly and giggled.

Soon, the chief of the Muxian tribe came in person to ask Ji Xiaoyan to change places. He said he was borrowing a place from the Juli tribe and took her to a small square in the Juli tribe's settlement.

Ji Xiaoyan saw all the people of the Osmanthus clan for the first time and was a little surprised that there were so many people.

The small square of the Juli tribe is quite large for normal people like them, and can accommodate at least a thousand people. The number of people from the Osmanthus clan who came to seek refuge occupied half of the small square, at least 500 if not 800.

"Xiaoyan, it seems that the people of the Osmanthus clan really come here to seek refuge! I think this sincerity is enough for the clan to act!" Frisman couldn't help but said with emotion.

Ji Xiaoyan nodded expressionlessly, and then watched the leader of the Muxian tribe salute happily to her, then took out a white cup the size of a faceplate, raised it toward the sky, and muttered something like Then he started talking.

"The oath is about to begin." Friesman explained to Ji Xiaoyan with all his heart.

Soon, the chief of the Muxian tribe stopped talking, took back his cup, raised his cup to the numerous indigenous people of the Muxian tribe behind him, and shouted loudly: "Today, the Muxian tribe is here. I sincerely ask the Lord God to witness that we, the Osmanthus Clan, will be attached to Qingcheng for all our lives, obey all instructions and arrangements of Qingcheng, and be loyal to Qingcheng. Heart, sincerity, dedication, never betray! Now, with the blood of the whole clan, we pledge our clan's oath."

Ji Xiaoyan couldn't help but cast his eyes to the sky after listening to the words of the Muxian clan. The shock of this blood oath ceremony also caused a little doubt as to whether the light would really hear and control this oath.

Then, the leader of the Muxian tribe took out a dagger and stabbed his finger directly. A drop of bright red blood dripped out and fell into the white cup. The other natives of the Muxian tribe They walked towards him in tacit understanding, and then used the dagger in their hands to drip all the blood into the cup

Because there were so many people, the ceremony didn't go very fast, but Ji Xiaoyan didn't feel restless or impatient at all. She knew that this was the highest respect and loyalty shown to her by a race. People acted seriously on their beliefs, and she, as the recipient, naturally also needed to be pious.

So until the sky gradually darkened, Ji Xiaoyan still sat upright on the main seat. Although her whole body was aching at the moment, she still persisted.

The leader of the Muxian tribe waited with a serious face until the last tribesman dropped blood into the cup. Then he took a deep breath, glanced at everyone with satisfaction, and solemnly raised the full cup with both hands. Putting the cup of blood on his chest, he smiled solemnly at Ji Xiaoyan and watched her face her After Ji nodded and smiled back, he said loudly: "Here today, I, the Osmanthus Clan, swear with the blood of the entire clan to adhere to Qingcheng and never betray me. I hope the Lord God will witness it."

The next second , Ji Xiaoyan saw that in the originally calm sky, the clouds began to flow, gradually speeding up to form a vortex. A few seconds later, a white light shone softly from the center of the vortex and fell into the cup on the chest of the leader of the Muxian tribe.

I saw that the originally calm blood in the cup seemed to be alive. It began to rise and fall around the white light, and slowly formed a blood-colored bead chain and began to fly towards the sky.
