The return of Bai Ling, the High Priestess, caught the attention of all the Lizardmen in the Bck Mountain tribe.

  At this moment, the area outside the chieftain's wooden house was teeming with people.

  The chieftain's wooden house stood like an isoted isnd amidst a sea of people.

  "What happened?"

  "No idea!"

  The icy mist emanating from the chieftain's wooden house sparked murmurs among the Lizardmen outside.

  Before long, uhe watchful eyes of the crowd, a white figure emerged from the door.

  "It's the High Priestess!"

  "It really is the High Priestess!"

  "The High Priestess has returned!"

  The snow-white figure firmed Bai Ling, the High Priestess's identity to the Lizardmen.

  Because only the High Priestess's lineage had bodies as white as snow.

  For a moment, the crowd outside was in an uproar!

  When they saw what the High Priestess held in her hand, the expressions of the Lizardmen outside ged again.

  "It's the chieftain, it's the chieftain!"

  "It's the chieftain's head!"

  "Ah!"

  Terrified screams erupted from the crowd.

  The Lizardmen warriors of the Bck Mountain tribe, who were standing guard outside, were also at a loss.

  Fag the sea of tribespeople outside, Bai Ling expressionlessly raised Scarface's head high.

  "I am Bai Ling, the sole survivor of the High Priestess's lineage. I will save you, I won't let you starve or be sughtered again. You have the freedom to choose whether to follow me or tio follow the Elder cil!"

  "Seize them!"

  At this moment, the Lizardmen warriors of the Bck Mountain tribe outside reacted.

  They realized what had happened ihe wooden house.

  Hundreds of Bck Mountain tribe warriors surrouhem.

  "Stop them!"

  The elders of the Yue hurriedly emerged from the wooden house.

  The Lizardmen warriors of the Yue quickly formed a defensive liside.

  Both sides faced off outside the chieftain's wooden house.

  "We 't let the Elder cil tio persecute the High Priestess!"

  "Don't harm the High Priestess!"

  "We 't let them harm the High Priestess!"

  The crowd outside was emotionally charged.

  They had had enough of the Elder cil's rule.

  They believed more in the High Priestess's ability t them a better life.

  "Stop, back off!"

  The surging crowd prompted the Bck Mountain tribe's Lizardmen warriors to shout loudly.

  But the crowd remained unmoved, advang step by step.

  Some Lizardmen warriors showed a fierce expression.

  Holding stone machetes, they were about to charge forward.

  "Shan Ben, what are you doing? e back!"

  Shan Ben remained unmoved, raising his stone machete high.

  "Anyone who dares to step forward, I'll kill them. The Bck Mountain tribe's rulers are the Elder cil, not some High Priestess!"

  Fag the fierce Shahe approag Lizardmen civilians showed fear.

  "Ah!"

  A frail Lizardman roared.

  Though fear was in its eyes, there was more determination.

  It suddenly charged forward, crashing into Shan Ben.

  Unfortunately, it was too weak.

  Even with all its strength, it only mao push Shan Ben back a few steps.

  "You court death!"

  The furious Shan Ben puhe back of the Lizardman civilian's head.

  The Lizardman civilian immediately colpsed to the ground.

  "You piece of trash only fit to live in a cesspit!"

  The enraged Shan Ben kicked and cursed the Lizardman civilian.

  The crowd watg this se fell into a deathly silence.

  "Shan Ben, stop!"

  Seeing the crowd's atmosphere turning tehe Lizardmen warriors behind Sharied to stop him.

  But Shan Ben, in his rage, remained unmoved.

  His kicks became even more forceful.

  "Ah!"

  A Lizardman civilian shouted and charged at Shan Ben.

  It lunged, crashing into Shan Ben.

  Shaaggered back repeatedly.

  "You bastard, c death!"

  Shan Ben gred angrily.

  He raised his stone machete and swung it at the Lizardman civilian.

  "Ah!"

  At that moment, the crowd erupted in angry roars.

  One Lizardman civilian after another rushed out.

  They angrily pounced on Shan Ben.

  Just as Shan Ben raised his machete, he was tackled to the ground.

  Several Lizardmen pinned Shan Ben down.

  They pounded his head with their fists.

  Shan Ben was sooen bloody and mangled.

  "What are you doing, back off!"

  Seeing this, his panions rushed forward to stop them.

  "Kill them!"

  At that moment, a voice roared from the crowd.

  "Kill!"

  Another roar followed.

  "Kill!"

  In that instant, the cries of battle echoed through the heavens ah.

  The Lizardman civilians oskirts angrily charged at the Lizardman warriors.

  A dark wave of people instantly overwhelmed the Lizardman warriors oskirts.

  "Extermihe Elder cil, bring back the High Priestess!"

  The Lizardman civilians shouted loudly.

  Their momentum grew stronger and stronger.

  The overwhelming shouts let the Lizardman civilians oskirts know what was happening.

  The civilians, already dissatisfied with the Elder cil, ighe fire in their hearts.

  The angry yet frail Lizardman civilians flocked in groups.

  They rushed into the tall and spacious wooden houses.

  They veheir a the Elder cil on the Lizardmen associated with the elders.

  "Food, so much food!"

  When the Lizardman civilians rushed into those tall wooden houses, they found them filled with various foods.

  This made the Lizardman civilians even angrier.

  They were starving, while the elders were enjoying endless delicacies.

  For a moment, the Aral Tribe was in an uproar.

  All the upper-css Lizardmen became targets for the civilians' purge.

  The once high and mighty upper-css Lizardmen were dragged out of the wooden houses by the angry civilians.

  In the excited eyes of thousands of Lizardman civilians, they were executed.

  The thick st of blood quickly spread throughout the Aral Tribe.

  And Bai Ling, standing at the chieftain's door, watched coldly.

  "Chieftain, should we stop them?"

  Behind Bai Ling, Bck Scale felt a bit uneasy.

  If the chieftain spoke up, it would surely calm the out-of-trol Lizardman civilians.

  Bai Ling listened expressionlessly to the roars and screams from all dires.

  "No need, better a short pain than a long ohe Elder cil must be pletely eradicated!"

  Bai Ling's eyes narrowed slightly, filled with murderous i.

  No one uood the nature of the Elder cil better than Bai Ling.

  If the Elder cil wasn't removed, the Bck Mountain tribe wouldn't willingly submit to the leader.

  Even if they submitted, it would only be temporary.

  Rather than waiting for the Bck Mountain tribe to rebel and be sughtered by the leader, it was better to eradicate the Elder ow.

  In this way, the Yue could merge with the Bck Mountain tribe.

  And it could lead the s Lizardmen to grorosper.

  With the fishing tools taught by the leader, the s Lizardmen would no lo hungry.

  As long as food lentiful, the popution would surge.

  One day, the s Lizardmen could also bee a major tribe.

  Meanwhile, in the southern waters.

  "What a otion!"

  Standing on the ice, Li Meng gazed in the dire of the Bck Mountain tribe.

  Though it was a bit far, Li Meng could hear the cmor of the Bck Mountain tribe.

  "It seems Bai Ling succeeded!"

  Li Meng grinned, sitting leisurely on the ice.

  Now, it was just a matter of patiently waiting.
