After a century of worship, I became the ancestor of the tribe.

Chapter 46: Fu Fu: This Little Tribe Scammed Me (Please Read On)
call out!call out!
The pond was close to the eastern city wall of the tribe, and the place where Su Fu made his move was also near the eastern city wall.

The moment their figures were exposed, the rockets from the city wall had already fallen.

Along with the rockets came burning muskets, emitting a strong smell of grease.

"Wood dipped in animal fat, what a bunch of bumpkins."

Fu was naturally afraid of fire, so he quickly moved his body to avoid the falling musket.

He had only ever seen such primitive things as wooden guns in clan records before.

Hilarious! Who uses wood except for savages?

The firewood and mushrooms drying on the roof were also set ablaze.

The blazing flames illuminated the darkness even more.

Amidst the blazing flames, various roars and footsteps echoed continuously.

It's chaotic, and that's what's good.

He was surprised that a group of nobu could be so vigilant, given their limited defenses.

As he muttered incantations, a water dragon surged from his body and rushed toward the nearby houses.

The more chaotic it was, the happier he was to eat.

call out!
As soon as Fu moved, he heard a whooshing sound coming from the air.

He jolted and quickly rolled away, the arrow embedding itself in front of him.

On a distant rooftop, Huotang gripped a powerful bow, his gaze filled with murderous intent.

"Heavenly Vein?"

Lu Fu steadied himself, completely unconcerned.

What use is a single celestial vein to such a large tribe? Can it protect all the elderly, weak, women, and children?

How many times can we stop him?

However, after several such incidents, Fu became furious.

Three figures were constantly leaping and moving across the rooftop, each with a powerful bow aimed at him. No matter how he moved, he could not perfectly avoid the three.

It's not one celestial vein, it's three celestial veins.

"Very well, very well, Onobe actually has three Heavenly Veins. I underestimated you."

The serpent, shimmering with ghostly light, moved swiftly and rapidly through houses and passageways, leaving arrows trailing behind it.

"Ants, let's see how many warriors you can stop me from being from such a small tribe!"

Lu Fu had seen many such small tribes before; a hundred or eighty warriors was considered quite good.

In such a large clan city, what use are these few warriors? Can they carry several thousand clansmen on their backs?

If he were to take advantage of a few women and children, the attack on him would crumble, and the small group would be shrouded in fear of him.

He knocked away the people who surrounded him one after another, and then laughed loudly.

"Array up!"

At that moment, he heard a roar erupt from within the clan.

"Hilarious! A tiny tribe of a few people, what do they know about 'Lei' (a military term)..."

Suddenly, Fu's movements abruptly stopped.

Beside the bonfire reflecting the city, figures leaped up from various places to higher ground.

There were dozens of bonfires inside the city, with at least a dozen people around each bonfire, so there were at least several hundred people in total.

"A small tribe can have several hundred warriors?"

The thought flashed through Fu Fu's mind, and he quickly jumped off the city wall.

Flames continued to burst and explode as the fire raged, and his attempt to rush into the house was met with even more vicious arrows.

Clusters of water and fire burst open within the clan's city.

Fu was in a sorry state, with many black burn marks on his body.

If it weren't for the blessing of the Lingyu bloodline and water-based witchcraft, he would probably have been burned to ashes by now.

Three Celestial Veins.

Several hundred cracks in the stone.

Hitting a sorcerer like him is incredibly unsportsmanlike.

And this setup clearly indicates that it was rehearsed beforehand.

Otherwise, how could the campfire have lit up and he had jumped onto the roof so quickly after he was discovered, with his musket already soaked in grease?

Little Nobe, what a mess!

It's paranoia.

In a panic, Fu rushed towards the pond.

He still has a chance.

He is a water-based wizard, practicing the Lingyu Water Control Book. Little Yebu, do you even know what real witchcraft is?

……

On the mountain of the tribe.

Shen Can observed the encirclement from his vantage point. In less than a quarter of an hour, the guy was surrounded and running away in panic.

His gaze wandered and he saw a pond.

"Uncle Huoqi, tell the clansmen to come with me to bring the anesthetic powder and pour it into the pond."

"quick!"

……

The pond to the northeast was a hiding place that Fu had scouted out beforehand.

His original intention was to eat a portion of the Blazing Flame Clan members each day, hide in the pond during the day, and come out at night.

With his Lingyu bloodline talent, even if the little Nobu tribe overturned a mountain, they still wouldn't be able to find him.

To my utter surprise, aside from their somewhat unorthodox weaponry, the Onobe clan was incredibly well-organized.

What are you hundreds of martial artists doing huddled in this godforsaken place?

Waiting to defend against him?

"Pfft!"

As the musket fell into the pond with a thud, Fu twisted and dodged until he reached the edge of the pond, muttering incantations to himself.

Waves began to appear on the water's surface, and streams of water surged up, colliding with the falling muskets and rockets.

The power of water magic suddenly increased several times over.

Taking advantage of the situation, he jumped into the pond.

"A bunch of savage ants, let me show you what real witchcraft is!"

Half-swimming in the water, the scales around the fish shimmered with an eerie light, ripples rose on the surface, and waves surged like the tide, rising in circles.

"Wow!"

Suddenly, Fu felt her limbs go weak, and her half-swimming body sank downwards. The hand that had been casting the spell trembled, and the splash of water that had just been stirred up fell back into the water with a splash.

"Hey hey..."

Lu Fu shook her head violently, feeling a little dizzy.

Oh no, this water is wrong!
Someone drugged it.

Poisoning someone in their own village's pond?
No, you're sick in the head.

In the instant his mind went blank, he suddenly snapped to attention and hurriedly tried to dart out of the pond.

He mustered his strength to dodge most of the muskets, and used all four limbs to climb out of the water, heading towards the top of the mountain.

"Buzz!"

In an instant, a formed jet of water shot towards Fu Fu's lower back.

His body was limp and he couldn't react at all. He screamed and rolled over, crashing into the stone wall. Then he was kicked hard and flew up and crashed into the pond again.

“Drugging…ambush…savage and despicable…gurgle…”

……

"Fall down, keep falling!"

Outside the pond, Shen Can blew on his fingers that had been used to prick people's kidneys, and beckoned his clansmen to continue pouring anesthetic into the pond.

From the firelight illuminating the tribe, he guessed the origin of the human-faced, fish-bodied creature.

Is a monster that can transform between a human and a Lingyu still human?

"Put out the fire and save our people."

Huotang gave the order, leading a squad of archers to form a line around the pond, their arrows aimed at the water.

Some of the clansmen poured the anesthetic into it.

The falling calf struggled for a moment at first, then floated up, its body twitching as it tried to control itself, but its body wouldn't obey it.

"Ah Chan, leave him alive."

Shen Can nodded.

If it weren't for the need to spare his life, he would have already ordered his men to kill the man.

The presence of the Lingyu tribe here is alarming.

With such strength, he is at most a second-tier wizard, which is completely unworthy of the renowned Lingyu tribe.

Not long after, Fu was pulled out of the water and regained her human form while unconscious.

"Break his limbs."

"Crack!"

"Crack!"

The sound of shattering rang out repeatedly, and the unconscious Fu let out a painful hiss.

His limbs were completely crippled, probably thanks to the anesthetic powder; he didn't even wake up despite such severe injuries.

"Go prepare a fire room and move the third-tier animal hide bands and the remaining anesthetic powder into the fire room."

……

Inside the cave, a bonfire roared, and waves of heat surged.

A stone pillar stands in the center of the cave, with a groove around its exterior filled with animal fat.

The third-tier beast tendons pierced through the shoulders of the stone pillar, and the limp body slowly opened its eyes to see a burning campfire.

The pain and the effects of the anesthetic left him in a semi-real, semi-dreamlike state.

Where is this.

He quickly recalled that he seemed to have discovered a savage tribe and was about to feast on them.

then……

"mean!"

Lu Fu cursed out instinctively.

Upon closer inspection, I realized I was tightly locked up, with holes piercing through my shoulders and back, and my limbs were likely shattered.

He was captured by a nomad.

This Nobe... is he out of his mind?

They were beaten and forced to flee in a sorry state as soon as they entered, and the pond was even drugged.

This small tribe definitely tricked him; he can't stand this injustice.

"woke up?"

Shen Can and Huo Tang approached.

“Ants, I am Ling…”

"Pfft!" Shen Can raised his hand, and a stream of water pierced into Fu Fu's lower abdomen.

The pain from one spot radiated throughout her entire body. Fu's face contorted in rage as she glared at Shen Can. "You stabbed me in the lower back when I was running away!"

"Yes, the Lingyu Water Control Technique is really useful."

As he spoke, Shen Can raised his hand, without even reciting the incantation, and a wisp of water vapor gathered between his fingers.

"You...you...how could you possibly know how to cultivate the Lingyu Water Control Technique!"

Fu Fu's eyes widened in disbelief.

This is the foundation of the Lingyu tribe, which has been passed down for 3,600 years.

"I learned it from you. It's no big deal. I can figure it out in no time."

Fu was stunned for a moment, then opened his mouth to spit on Shen Can.

You can do it in a minute. Why don't you just say that you created the Lingyu Water Control Technique?

Unfortunately, he got slapped hard by Shen Can first.

"Name, type".

"The floodwaters have receded, why are you still staying nearby?"

"Although I don't know where you obtained the method of water manipulation, you mere ants-like savages are not worthy to judge me..."

"what!"

Shen Can raised his hand and unleashed a stream of water, which pierced Fu Fu's lower back on the other side.

Then, he reached out and rubbed the arm where the bones had been broken.

“I’ll talk, I’ll talk… My name is Fu, the exiled fish of the Lingyu… I… Ah!”

But Shen Can pretended not to hear and handed Fu Fu's other arm to Huo Tang.

"Take a deep breath, it's normal to feel pain."

"Ah... Ouch..."
