Chapter 750

"Sacrificial Rites, my lord."

No sooner had the words left his lips than a voice greeting them came from outside the house.

A woman wearing a mask walked in.

"High Priestess, my lord!"

Ah Yan Yue and Ah Lita called out in unison.

Such an attitude made Jiang Yan raise an eyebrow; although he had said this Sacrificial Rites was Highly Respected, was even the tribal chief so respectful?

Four eyes met, or at least that was how it appeared to Jiang Yan.

"Mr. Jiang, thank you for your help; otherwise, they would have been Afraid It's Impossible to return safely."

Just as Jiang Yan thought this Sacrificial Rites was going to play a game of staring contests with him, she suddenly spoke.

"It was merely a trivial effort; my lord, there is no need for such courtesy."

Jiang Yan spoke lightly while sensing the Sacrificial Rites' power; compared to others, this Sacrificial Rites' aura was indeed the strongest in the tribe.

"Mr. Jiang!"

Plop—The Sacrificial Rites, my lord, directly knelt to the ground.

"Please save our tribe; I have received a divine oracle stating that as long as Mr. Jiang lends his hand, we can absolutely resolve our predicament and escape."

"..."

This sudden turn of events left even Jiang Yan stunned; hey, hey, hey, what divine oracle? Wasn't the Moon Goddess already dead and gone? Where did you get that from?

"Uh, this..."

Not only Jiang Yan, but even the mother and daughter over there were stunned; Sacrificial Rites, my lord, are you serious? Give us a look, and we'll kneel immediately!

"Wait, wait, wait, answer my questions first; as for other matters, we'll discuss them later."

"Mr. Jiang, please ask."

The Sacrificial Rites, my lord, maintained the kneeling posture and did not rise.

Jiang Yan also had no desire to care; sit or not, it's your choice.

"When did the black... ah, the impure qi appear? When did the faith in the Moon Goddess begin? And what is the story behind that huge white stone?"

Regarding the last question, Jiang Yan did not worry at all about what they thought of him; don't ask how I know, just answer.

"I do not know, I do not know; as for that white stone... rather, the Moon Goddess's protection is precisely that stone."

Speaking to this point, the Sacrificial Rites clearly paused, as if thinking, as if hesitating.

"To speak the truth, I have only lived for over three hundred years; the impure qi and the faith in the Moon Goddess began long ago, and thanks to the Moon Goddess's protection, our tribe has been able to preserve itself."

"With the Moon Goddess's protection, that glowing white barrier exists; those who go out carrying fragments of it will also have the effect of temporarily shielding against the impure qi."

Hearing this, the corner of Jiang Yan's eye twitched; what happened to the Sacrificial Rites, my lord? What happened to gaining some insight?

Sigh! Saying it was the same as not saying anything!

Jiang Yan covered his head, seeming to have a headache from playing with a group of juniors here.

Seeing Jiang Yan like this, all three felt their hearts sink.

"Mr. Jiang, what I said about receiving the divine oracle is true! Look at this."

As if trying to retain Jiang Yan, the Sacrificial Rites took out a scroll, opened it, and then closed it.

The speed was fast, but Jiang Yan saw it clearly.

A portrait! It was precisely portraits of himself in his original form and in disguise!

Not only that, judging by the traces, this portrait had existed for a long time.
