Chapter 2893: I Say, I Say

~7 min read 1,216 words

Just smelling the aroma already made the Feather God Tribe prisoners in the heavenly prison unable to bear it, let alone now these people eating it right in front of them.

Especially this Feather God Tribe elder, watching the Iron Peak Clan Chief's barbarian bunch eat, his mouth was full of oil, saliva practically pouring like a waterfall, dripping uncontrollably.

Torment, absolute torment.

Even if he grits his teeth and forces himself to endure, this Feather God Tribe elder feels his whole body is near its limit.

"Delicious, delicious."

Moreover, you barbarians, just eat if you're going to eat, can you stop smacking your lips? And you keep commenting from time to time.

Five dishes, in this situation they should be savored slowly, but the Iron Peak Clan Chief and his group couldn't help themselves.

In two or three bites they gobble it all up.

Xu Jie felt helpless; how long has it been? Just a few blinks and you've eaten it all clean.

Can you slow down a bit?

But it's not a big problem; we can just make more. Let's see how many rounds these Feather God Tribe can endure.

Watching the five plates of delicious food being eaten clean by the Iron Peak Clan Chief and others, this Feather God Tribe elder unconsciously let out a sigh of relief, yet couldn't help feeling a pang of regret.

I can't describe what feeling this is; logically, seeing the dishes finished, this Feather God Tribe elder should feel relieved.

After all, he could finally breathe easy, but having not eaten a bite, his heart felt empty, leaving him helpless.

However, this complexity didn't last long, for soon Ye Zhangqing began the next round.

Seeing the stove once again sending out fragrance, this Feather God Tribe elder wore a look of having seen a ghost, as if he'd seen some terrifying monster, his eyes involuntarily widening.

Damn, you really aren't giving him any breathing space—how long has it been, and you're back again?

His eyes showed utter terror, as if he'd seen a ghost.

Moreover, this time the aroma—whether an illusion or not—felt even richer than before.

The other Feather God Tribe prisoners in the cells felt the same, each one terrified yet struggling, greedily sucking in the fragrance in the air.

Such relentless torment indeed made some Feather God Tribe members unable to bear it.

Each had endured to their limit, yet still it was that same Feather God Tribe member from before.

Last time, under the elder's angry shout, he finally managed to hold back, but now, speaking again, even facing the elder's scolding, he spoke with a complex expression.

"Shut your mouth, do you want to betray the tribe?"

"Elder, I really can't take it anymore."

"Nonsense, get lost and shut your mouth."

"No, I just want one bite, just one bite."

In the end, this Feather God Tribe member still couldn't resist the food's temptation; even the elder's words were useless on him.

No longer heeding the elder, this Feather God Tribe member turned his head to Xu Jie and said.

"I tell you, give me a bite to eat, I tell you, I'll say everything."

Hearing this, Xu Jie stepped forward with a smile; although those two elders still hadn't yielded, it was merely an ordinary Feather God Tribe member.

But someone speaking up is a good sign.

Someone has started; are we still afraid those two elders won't speak?

Smiling at this Feather God Tribe member, Xu Jie chuckled and asked.

"Go ahead, speak well, and I'll let you eat a big bowl."

"Really?"

"Really."

"Good, do you want to enter the Feather God Tribe's Shenjie?"

"Yes."

"Shut your mouth, do you want to be a criminal, do you want to betray your kin?"

Watching this clan member actually speak up, the elder was so angry he wanted to go up and kill him himself.

But he himself was a prisoner, naturally unable to stop him, and facing his angry shout, that Feather God Tribe member had no intention of paying heed.

At this moment, his mind held only one thought: to eat; as long as he could get food, nothing else mattered.

So this Feather God Tribe member completely ignored the elder's reprimand beside him and began speaking on his own.

And as this Feather God Tribe member spoke, the elder who had been roaring also gradually sank into despair.

Being fellow Feather God Tribe members, he naturally knew whether the other's words were true or false.

This damned thing, for a bite of food, spares no words, speaking more truly than pearls, not a single false sentence.

His mood sank straight to the bottom, the whole person couldn't help falling into despair—what a weak-willed wretch.

According to this Feather God Tribe member, the simplest way to enter the Feather God Tribe's Shenjie is bloodline induction.

As long as one possesses Feather God Tribe bloodline, they can enter the Feather God Tribe's Shenjie unhindered.

How these Feather God Tribe members enter and exit the Shenjie.

However, for outsiders like Xu Jie and his group, wanting to enter the Shenjie is quite troublesome.

Because they lack Feather God Tribe bloodline, they cannot pass freely through the Shenjie entrance, which is similar to the Barbarian God Tribe.

Moreover, without Feather God Tribe bloodline, even knowing the entrance's location, they cannot open it.

What's more, the entrances to the Feather God Tribe's Shenjie, though not just one, are constantly shifting; this method is something Xu Jie and his group have never heard of before.

Under these circumstances, to enter the Feather God Tribe's Shenjie, there is only one way: someone must bring them in.

And to bring outsiders into the Shenjie, these ordinary tribe members still lack the qualification.

Only elder-level figures can, relying on their own bloodline, bring outsiders into the Shenjie.

One could say the Feather God Tribe's Shenjie defense has basically no loopholes.

After all, to become an elder-level figure, loyalty to the tribe is beyond doubt.

For so many years, within the Feather God Tribe, there has never been an incident where an Elder-level person betrayed the tribe.

Upon hearing this tribesman's words, Xu Jie pondered for a moment, then said indifferently.

"So, in the end, this matter still has to fall on the Elder's head?"

"Yes, we don't have that authority."

Upon hearing that, this tribe member looked at Xu Jie with some apprehension; now that they've spoken, if they don't get to eat, they'll really be in big trouble.

So, seeing Xu Jie's gaze, the Feather God Tribe member hastily asked carefully.

"Can I eat now?"

Although they had told the other party a lot of information, in reality it wasn't useful; they weren't sure whether Xu Jie would give them food.

Fortunately, under the apprehensive gaze of that Feather God Tribe member, Xu Jie finally broke into a smile and said.

"Rest assured, since I already said that if you're willing to speak, I'll give you food."

Immediately, Xu Jie turned around, personally filled a bowl of rice for them, and sent it into the Prison Cell.

Although it had no substantial effect, this Feather God Tribe member still made a good start; with someone taking the lead, the following matters would be much simpler.
