Chapter 4432

After Tu Mo returned to the Zhu Que Department.

The entire Zhu Que Department also prepared to host a grand banquet.

At night, sky-high bonfires burned.

Almost all the clansmen of the Zhu Que Department gathered in one place.

Many banquet tables were set up in between.

There were also delicacies cooked from the meat of various freshly hunted beasts.

At the main banquet table located in the center.

Jun Xiaoyao was honored with the seat of highest prestige.

Beside him were Tu Mo, Tu Su, and others.

"Young Master Jun is truly the savior of our Zhu Que Department."

"If it weren't for you, Young Master, our Zhu Que Department would not have its current atmosphere."

"This old man toasts you, Young Master."

A highly prestigious elder of the Zhu Que Department raised a wine cup toward Jun Xiaoyao.

"You are too kind." Jun Xiaoyao also raised his wine cup and smiled indifferently.

Meanwhile, his gaze secretly swept across the entire venue.

He did not see the figure of Tu Tian.

Previously, although Tu Tian was defeated by Tu Su and was quite disheveled, losing his former status.

But he was still one of the top talents of the Zhu Que Department.

Jun Xiaoyao had already guessed as much in his heart.

In fact, letting Tu Su bring out the Ancestral Totem Tree in public was also part of the plan.

After the banquet ended.

In the following days.

The Zhu Que Department remained in a jubilant atmosphere.

At the same time, some elders suggested that Tu Mo continue to hold the position of Chief of the Zhu Que Department.

This made the expressions of those from Tu Tian's faction look extremely ugly.

However, they could not stop anything.

Because, not to mention Tu Mo's current cultivation base.

Just the talent of Tu Su's Ten Thousand Flame Zhu Que bloodline alone.

Destined her to lead the Zhu Que Department in the future.

Even Tu Mo was only holding the position temporarily.

And besides the matter of replacing the Chief.

The most important thing, of course, was the Ancestral Totem Tree.

This was once the sacred tree of the Totem Saint Clan.

Now, the cultivators of the five major tribes of the Totem Saint Clan.

If they needed to cultivate totems.

They had to go hunting.

But the former Totem Saint Clan possessed the Ancestral Totem Tree.

They could refine and obtain totems through the Ancestral Totem Tree.

The efficiency and the power of the totems would be greatly increased.

If other tribes were to learn of this Ancestral Totem Tree, it would certainly stir up a storm.

Therefore, the elders of the Zhu Que Department discussed and decided to plant the Ancestral Totem Tree deep within the most core ancestral land of the Zhu Que Department.

After the Zhu Que Department strengthened its foundation with the help of the Ancestral Totem Tree.

Then they would inform the other tribes.

The Zhu Que Department doing this was not because they wanted to completely monopolize the Ancestral Totem Tree.

But because they understood.

With the methods of tribes like the Wild Dragon Department.

If they were to know of the tree's existence now.

Then once they seized it, it would never be the Zhu Que Department's turn again.

After arranging the matters, the Zhu Que Department began various plans and preparations.

However, not many days passed.

Suddenly.

In the void outside the territory of the Zhu Que Department.

Batches of people riding ancient warships appeared.

"Not good, it's people from the other tribes..."

Some cultivators of the Zhu Que Department noticed, and their expressions changed one after another.

They immediately understood why these tribes had come.

And importantly, it was not just one tribe that had come.

But all four of the other major tribes had arrived.

At the same time, within the Zhu Que Department.

Some elders of the Zhu Que Department gathered together, their faces filled with anxiety.

"What exactly is going on?" an elder asked in a deep voice.

"There must be a mole!" another elder said with fury.

The Ancestral Totem Tree was of vital importance to their Zhu Que Department.

Yet, not even a few days had passed before the people of the four major tribes came knocking.

This was clearly because someone within their tribe had deliberately leaked the news.

At this moment, Tu Mo, Tu Su, and Jun Xiaoyao appeared.

"No need to be anxious, let's go out and see first," Tu Mo said.

As he spoke, he glanced at Jun Xiaoyao, whose expression remained calm.

Sure enough, everything was within his planned arrangements.

And just at this moment, a sound like a thunderclap exploded in the void outside.

"Tu Mo, I heard you returned alive, why not come out and meet us?"

Hearing this voice, Tu Mo's expression tightened slightly.

Immediately, their group arrived at the void on the outskirts of the Zhu Que Department.

At this moment, clansmen from all branches of the Zhu Que Department had appeared.

They looked over.

And saw that in the void, ancient warships had emerged from four directions.

It was indeed the people from the other four departments.

And the one who had just spoken was from the Wild Dragon Department.

On the warship of the Wild Dragon Department.

Stood a middle-aged man with a figure like an iron tower.

His skin was bronze-colored, his muscles bulging like an ancient wild beast, carrying explosive power.

His sharp facial features carried an air of natural authority.

It was none other than the Chief of the Wild Dragon Department, Man Kui.

Beside him stood Man Wuji.

In addition, the chiefs of the other departments also appeared one after another.

This was enough to show how much they valued and craved the Ancestral Totem Tree.

"Tu Mo, I didn't expect to see you again in my lifetime."

The Chief of the Wild Dragon Department, Man Kui, looked at Tu Mo.

Although he said this, a cold glint flashed in the depths of his eyes.

He thought back to the days when Tu Mo led the Zhu Que Department and suppressed their Wild Dragon Department.

"You came here, surely not just to see someone like me who should have already fallen?" Tu Mo said indifferently.

"Heh... I heard you obtained the Ancestral Totem Tree, surely you didn't bring it out from the Wild Ancient Abyss, did you?"

"This Ancestral Totem Tree belongs to the entire Totem Saint Clan, it is not something exclusive to your Zhu Que Department."

Man Kui said, looking toward the depths of the Zhu Que Department.

Although there were some formations isolating and shielding it.

He seemed to be able to faintly feel that familiar aura and power.

The Ancestral Totem Tree was once the supreme treasure of the Totem Saint Clan.

He could not let such a supreme treasure remain in the Zhu Que Department.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be long before the Zhu Que Department rose again and suppressed his Wild Dragon Department.

"Indeed, the Ancestral Totem Tree returning to our tribe is something to be celebrated."

"But how to utilize this tree, I think it still needs to be discussed," the Chief of the Heavenly Tiger Department also said.

"Indeed, I think so too."

The chiefs of the Soaring Snake Department and the Azure Ape Department also said.

They were not like the Wild Dragon Department, not wanting to see the Zhu Que Department rise.

They simply wanted a share of the pie.

Seeing this, the group of elders of the Zhu Que Department all had gloomy expressions.

It wasn't that they wanted to hide the Ancestral Totem Tree forever.

But in recent years, the Zhu Que Department had declined, so they needed the Ancestral Totem Tree to increase their foundation.

Otherwise, facing the targeting of the Wild Dragon Department, they would appear extremely passive.

"Who exactly is it..."

The group of Zhu Que Department elders had faces as gloomy as water.

It was because of that mole that their Zhu Que Department was now in such a passive position.

"I know who did it," Tu Su suddenly said.

"Hmm?" The many people of the Zhu Que Department present all looked at Tu Su.

Tu Su took out a projection stone.

A scene manifested.

Inside a hall, a figure was secretly sending a message.

That figure was none other than Tu Tian!
