Chapter 2914: with translation of chapter title

Just came out of seclusion, hadn't even had time to share that bellyful of joy with Ye Zhangqing, let alone detail my own changes.

The Iron Peak Clan Chief rushed over, and as soon as he spoke he demanded I find a solution, leaving Xu Jie completely bewildered.

The Iron Peak Clan Chief then faithfully repeated the ancestors' meaning, which he had already told Ye Zhangqing before.

Upon hearing that, Xu Jie fell silent.

Thinking of a plan, that momentarily stumped him.

After all, the Feather God Tribe aren't fools; you can't trick them twice in the same place, let alone three times.

Trying to replicate the previous plan now is nothing short of wishful thinking.

Seeing Xu Jie remain silent, the Iron Peak Clan Chief beside him urged anxiously.

"Young Xu, what do you say?"

Upon hearing that, Xu Jie spoke with a somewhat embarrassed expression.

"Senior, I really don't have any good ideas right now."

Hearing that, the Iron Peak Clan Chief grew anxious.

"You also have no solution? You………………… you're not just full of dirty tricks, right? You're not supposed to be resourceful?"

Huh???

Although the Iron Peak Clan Chief corrected himself in time, Xu Jie still wore a strange look, wondering what "full of dirty tricks" meant—was that praise or an insult?

Since Xu Jie had no solution, this left the Iron Peak Clan Chief completely at a loss.

According to the ancestors' intent, if there is no better plan, the proposal to attack the Feather God Tribe Divine Realm will likely have to be temporarily shelved.

The main issue is the casualty problem.

"Senior, give me some time to think."

Finally, Xu Jie said helplessly, he has some wisdom but he's not a deity.

We've already schemed twice; the Feather God Tribe surely have defenses ready, and the difficulty has skyrocketed.

I don't know how long it's been since those two elders lost contact with the tribe.

It's obvious the Feather God Tribe suspects those two elders of their own clan; the cards we hold are basically useless now.

Seeing Xu Jie say that, the Iron Peak Clan Chief could only nod helplessly.

After staying another day at the summit of Divine Mountain, since there was temporarily nothing to do, Ye Zhangqing also planned to leave.

After all, Bai Hua Xianzi and the other girls are still in the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens; I can't linger here.

The five ancestors certainly wouldn't want Ye Zhangqing to leave, but they have no reason to force him to stay.

After all, isn't there a spatial passage? When we have time later, we can go to the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens for a meal—it's no trouble.

Ye Zhangqing naturally nodded in agreement, and then left the Barbarian God Tribe Divine Realm.

With this spatial passage, traveling between the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens and the Barbarian God Tribe Divine Realm is truly much more convenient.

This time, the Iron Peak Tribe swapped in another batch of tribespeople to accompany us.

The previous batch stayed behind in the tribe, having already eaten, so they must have been swapped out.

Only the Iron Peak Clan Chief clung on shamelessly, ostensibly to supervise those Feather God Tribe people.

Although they've surrendered, we can't fully trust them; we still need someone to hold the fort.

After a safe return to the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens, although the absence wasn't long, as soon as Ye Zhangqing's group got back, Zhao Zhengping spoke bluntly.

"Junior brother, you've finally returned—something's happened in the city."

Huh??? Upon hearing that, Ye Zhangqing questioned doubtfully.

"What happened?"

"A Jiu's seventh elder brother has come, also sent by the Feather God Tribe to scout the city for information."

Huh??? Shadow Demon Tribe?

Upon hearing that, Ye Zhangqing and Xu Jie exchanged a glance, then both gave Zhao Zhengping a hard stare.

Just now you sounded so scared, I thought the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens had been breached, but it turned out only a scout had entered.

Moreover, from Zhao Zhengping's tone, this person has already been captured; otherwise he wouldn't know their identity, nor that they are A Jiu's older brother.

Such a small matter, yet you made it sound terrifying.

"A Shadow Demon Tribe scout, hmph—definitely the Feather God Tribe has grown suspicious."

The Iron Peak Clan Chief also couldn't help but mutter a curse.

The speaker meant nothing, but the listener took it to heart; upon hearing that, Xu Jie, who had previously paid little attention, suddenly shifted his gaze and his eyes lit up as he said.

"Senior Brother, where is the person now?"

"He's with A Jiu; after eating some dry rations, he surrendered."

Zhao Zhengping replied truthfully, this time putting it very lightly.

But hearing that, Ye Zhangqing and the others felt it was anything but pleasant.

No way—you just said a scout had infiltrated the city, your tone was like the sky was falling, yet now you talk about surrender so lightly and nonchalantly?

Persuading a Shadow Demon Tribe prince to surrender—is that easy?

Listening to your tone, it's like a street beggar who, given a bowl of rice, would just follow you—could it really be that easy……………

No, Ye Zhangqing's dry rations might actually be able to do that.

Slightly taken aback, Xu Jie secretly grew more excited and said.

"Good, then have you been in contact with the Feather God Tribe these past few days?"

"No, I've been with A Jiu the whole time, and the Feather God Tribe side hasn't reached out either."

"Good, excellent."

Huh???

Xu Jie suddenly cheered, leaving Zhao Zhengping bewildered, and he spoke doubtfully.

"What good?"

"This person's arrival is good, it's like meeting a pillow when you're sleepy, good good good, this person will be of great use."

Xu Jie, excited at the side, left Zhao Zhengping utterly confused, having no idea what this guy meant.

Ignoring him, Xu Jie simply turned his head and said to the Iron Peak Clan Chief.

"Senior, we have a solution."

"What solution? What solution?"

The Iron Peak Clan Chief and Zhao Zhengping, thinking alike, looked at Xu Jie full of doubt and said.

"I didn't say anything; what solution do you have?"

He didn't say a word just now; why did this kid suddenly turn his head to look at me?

Seeing the Iron Peak Clan Chief having completely forgotten the previous events, Xu Jie felt only weary, with no one who understands him.

How lonely this life is.

"Junior Brother, are you planning to make an issue out of this Old Seven?"

At this moment, Ye Zhangqing beside him, thoughtfully asked, since I know the full story, a little thought makes it clear.

Hearing that, Xu Jie nodded repeatedly, sighing.

"Only my junior brother knows me."

The only person in this world who can understand him, Xu San, is Junior Brother Zhangqing; as for others, well, summer insects cannot discuss ice, utterly foolish.

Seeing Xu Jie nod, Ye Zhangqing said no more; these matters, Third Senior Brother is familiar with, handing them to him is no problem.

"Senior, I'll entrust you with overseeing the Feather God Tribe's affairs; recently, unless I personally speak, no member of the Feather God Tribe may contact the outside world, under any circumstances."

Turning his head, he solemnly looked at the Iron Peak Clan Chief and said; hearing that, although the Iron Peak Clan Chief didn't know the reason, he still nodded heavily.

"Good, this small matter, you can rest assured."

Not contacting the outside world, this matter is no problem for the Iron Peak Clan Chief, with no difficulty.

Afterward, Xu Jie looked toward Ye Zhangqing and said.

"Junior Brother, let's go take a look at this Seventh Prince of the Shadow Demon Tribe."
