Once upon a time there was a greedy snake.

Chapter 84 Niu Huanxi

"We have already won half the battle in this war."

As night fell, several minotaurs gathered in their tent, and judging from their clinking of glasses, they were already having a victory celebration.

"But isn't it a bit inappropriate to do this?"

It was at this moment that a minotaur raised his concerns.

"We haven't even completely won yet, and we're already celebrating. It just seems a bit..."

"It's also to find an excuse to have some fun, since living in these monkeys' territory is really too boring for everyone."

Yes, monkeys, that's how these minotaurs—or rather, the Hennus—view the Ignivas.

In the eyes of the Hengnu, these monkeys were far too savage, seemingly obsessed with hunting and fighting, as if they had no other thoughts.

Although the Hengnu people acknowledge that these monkeys do possess some fighting ability, their monotonous lifestyle still only represents a brief escape from ignorance.

But this is a good thing for the Hennu people.

It was precisely because these monkeys were so ignorant that the Hennu were able to conquer them so easily. Just like now, the Hennu hadn't even paid much price in terms of lives, yet they had already begun to stand on the heads of these Ignivas.

After all, the pursuit of happiness is innate in all living beings.

The Ignivas do not know what happiness is and have always suppressed themselves, but they still have a need for happiness, which the Hennu can provide. When these Ignivas began to pursue happiness, the Hennu became their mentors—and now, even the leaders of these Ignivas have been conquered by them.
"Even if some of these Ignivas could resist the temptation of gold and jewels, they couldn't resist it; it was an instinct stemming from their bodies."

Thinking back to the daytime, the leader of those Ignivas, who was clearly a powerful warrior, looked as helpless as a child.

The leader of the minotaurs laughed heartily.

"I never expected that this 'Red Shadow' would become the leader of these monkeys, yet still act like a child in this regard..."

Upon hearing this, the minotaurs present burst into laughter.

They had all heard about what happened during the day, and the so-called Crimson Shadow's performance was indeed quite clumsy—but they could understand it. After all, even if it were them, they would probably be just as embarrassed if they were to experience all the techniques of that pleasure art.

After all, that art of pleasure was a supreme method that the Hennu people had summarized after receiving the wisdom of the sacred bull god Dehennu and through countless generations. Only those of the Hennu people who were favored by the sacred bull god Dehennu could learn its essence and thus bring unparalleled pleasure to others.

This is the highest mystery, and no one can resist this supreme joy, especially when they discover that they cannot regain that happiness on their own.

“Since these savage monkeys like to conquer everything with force, let them do it… The sacred bull god Dehennu guides us, and we will conquer them with civilization and joy.”

Every one of the minotaurs present thought the same thing.

And the facts have proven that their methods are indeed very effective. Even though these monkeys look quite robust, it doesn't mean they are robust in other aspects as well.

With the addition of gold and jewels paving the way, the Hennu people had achieved almost unimpeded passage through the territory of the Ignivas.

They didn't actually fight these Ignivas, but they no longer needed to fight.

They have already achieved this, in a substantial sense, placing themselves above all the Ignivas. "Next, it's time to put them into operation."

After thirty days and nights, the minotaurs gathered together once again.

The Minotaur have their own unique methods for managing these uncivilized monkeys—firstly, as the earthly incarnation of the sacred bull god Dehennu, they are undoubtedly the most intelligent, possessing the most intelligent minds.

And these monkeys, those skilled in combat, could serve as the hands of the Dehennu in the world, just like the warriors of other races conquered by the Dehennu, as the armed force of the Dehennu to kill those who rebelled.

As for those who are not good at fighting, they should be separated. Those who are intelligent should be in charge of production, and those who cannot even do production should do odd jobs.

Everything has its place in existence, and everything has its purpose; this is the wisdom of Dehennu, the god of the bull.

The Minotaur didn't directly promote anything; they simply provided guidance, and these so-called Ignivas automatically found their proper place in the hierarchy.

After enjoying the pleasures provided by the Ihennu, these Ignivas were happy to help the Ihennu in every way.

Even though these Ignivas people see them as simply engaging in normal transactions, they still believe to this day that their status is far superior to that of the Hennu.

"But they are already ours."

After another thirty days and nights, the leader of the minotaurs stood atop the sacred mountain, overlooking the vast land below.

The sacred mountain of the Ignivas was not a place for ordinary people to set foot in, let alone an outsider, a Hennu. But after the Hennu summoned several masters of pleasure magic from the other side of the mountain, the warrior known as the Thirty-Sixth Generation Red Shadow began to be willing to do him favors in matters that would not have a major impact.

Just like now, as long as he climbs the mountain at night and is not seen by anyone, it is not considered that the Ignivas have violated their ancestral teachings.

But to this minotaur, this was precisely a sign that the Ignivas had been completely conquered.

"They are willing to break their principles for the sake of pleasure... even though they still leave themselves a piece of cloth to cover their shame."

The minotaur atop the mountain looked up at the night sky, which shone like a jewel.

"True wisdom transcends brute force!"

At the summit, the minotaur opened his arms to the view before him.

This fertile land has gradually been taken over by the Hennu people.

As the elite of the Hennu people who accomplished all of this independently, he rightfully enjoys the right to rule this region.

This brought him unprecedented joy.

"However... there is one major problem to deal with before we can fully take over this land."

Thinking this, the minotaur turned to look at the rammed earth mound in the distance.

That was the altar where the Ignivas worshipped the serpent god, symbolizing the last faith of the Ignivas.
