Traveling to the future, the story with the orc king

At this moment, the Queen of Dragons, who was sitting beside him, looked at her heroic son with a loving look in her eyes. She smiled and asked, "Yan'er, what brings you here today?"

Long Yan raised his head, looked at the Queen with a sharp gaze, and said, "Father and Mother, I wonder if the two rare medicinal herbs you obtained earlier for refining the promotion pills have been refined?"

The Dragon Queen shook her head slightly and said, "Because we are not sure yet, the two medicinal herbs have not been refined yet. Why are you asking this, Yan'er?"

Upon hearing this, Long Yan couldn't help but feel an overwhelming surge of joy. He took out an exquisite jade bottle from his storage space. Then, with a look of excitement on his face, he handed the bottle to the Dragon Queen and said, "Mother and Father, take a look at this!"

The Dragon Queen gracefully reached out and took the elixir bottle. She gently opened the cap, and a rich, refreshing, and invigorating medicinal aroma instantly filled her nostrils. With just a sniff, the Dragon Queen's eyes lit up. Drawing on her years of experience and keen perception, she immediately recognized the elixir within as the extremely precious and rare "Promotion Pill"!

Unable to conceal his surprise, he quickly turned to look at the Dragon Emperor beside him, and said in a voice trembling slightly with excitement, "Your Majesty, look! It's actually the 'Promotion Pill'!"

The Dragon Emperor naturally smelled the unique medicinal fragrance, a scent that seemed to possess a magical power, causing the previously calm spiritual energy within him to stir. Almost instantly, the Dragon Emperor confirmed that this was undoubtedly the "Promotion Pill." However, at this moment, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind: a "Promotion Pill" of such high quality could only be created by the legendary god-level alchemist, Master Lin Yaochen? Despite this suspicion, the Dragon Emperor maintained a gentle smile. He looked at Long Yan with a loving gaze and asked softly, "Yan'er, tell me, who exactly created this 'Promotion Pill'?"

"Father, it was Ziyu who refined it. Two sets of herbs made a total of eleven advancement pills," Long Yan said proudly. "Before Fifth Grandfather passed away, he gave the elixir for refining the advancement pills to Ziyu. He said: As long as Ziyu's spiritual energy reaches level nine, he can refine the advancement pills, and his success rate will be higher than his. Father, you know that Ziyu and I disappeared more than ten days ago. At that time, we entered a secret realm together and obtained a treasure there. Ziyu's spiritual energy reached level nine."

The Dragon Emperor and the Dragon Queen stared at each other, their eyes meeting with unconcealed joy. The Dragon Queen produced a storage bag and handed it to Long Yan. "This is the elixir for refining the advancement pill," she said.

Long Yan quickly reached out to take the storage bag. After examining it, he looked up at the Queen in surprise and asked, puzzled, "Mother and Father, how could there be five spiritual medicines in here?"

Hearing this, a bitter smile emerged on the Dragon Queen's face. She shook her head helplessly and explained, "Yan'er, three of them belong to the sea clan. The Sea Emperor personally sent people to deliver them and begged us to help refine the promotion pills. Your father and I are worried about this matter and don't know how to deal with it." The Dragon Emperor on the side also smiled and nodded, indicating that he agreed with the Dragon Queen's statement.

After hearing this, Long Yan handed the brocade box containing the elixir back to the Dragon Emperor and the Dragon Queen without hesitation, and said in a firm tone: "Father, Mother, I will leave this promotion pill to you! I have other important things to do, so I will take my leave first." Before he finished speaking, he turned around and hurried away with big strides.

Watching Long Yan's retreating figure, the Dragon Queen couldn't help but chuckle, jokingly saying to the Dragon Emperor, "Look at our son! He's become quite different since he got a wife!" Upon hearing this, the Dragon Emperor also laughed heartily, his laughter echoing throughout the palace. Then, the two began to seriously discuss how to properly distribute the "Promotion Pills."

..............................

It was the coldest time of year, with biting winds howling across the land and temperatures dropping to the point of shivering. Such frigid weather had driven some orcs into a long hibernation to shield themselves from the harsh cold. Because of this, orcs rarely convened a general meeting unless something extremely serious was happening.

However, on this very day, the Dragon Emperor suddenly issued an imperial decree, summoning the chiefs of the Winged, Wolf, Tiger, Dragon, Fox, Lion, Peacock, and Bear tribes, and inviting the highly respected Prime Minister Bai to discuss important matters. Upon receiving this unexpected notice, the chiefs were filled with surprise and confusion.

They hurriedly set off, rushing towards the Dragon Emperor Palace. Several clan leaders met outside the magnificent Dragon Emperor Palace. The Wing Clan leader was the first to swallow his curiosity. He quickly approached Prime Minister Bai, who was standing at the palace gate, and asked, "Old Bai, why has the Dragon Emperor summoned us so hastily? Is something earth-shattering about to happen?" The other clan leaders also cast inquiring glances, hoping for an answer from Prime Minister Bai.

Prime Minister Bai smiled and said, "Lao Yi, I just got here and haven't even entered yet. I wonder why His Majesty summoned us here?"

The tribe leaders looked at each other, their heads tilted, confused as to what was going on. The Tiger tribe leader said, "Let's go! Why are you still standing here?" Then he walked toward the conference hall. The other tribe leaders followed suit.

The clan leaders, along with Prime Minister Bai, entered the conference hall. The Dragon Emperor sat solemnly on his throne. After the clan leaders took their seats, the Dragon Emperor's commanding voice rang out, "I've summoned you all here today because of a matter of vital importance to the future of the Beast Tribe. The 'Promotion Pills' have been successfully refined, yielding nine. I've summoned you all to discuss how to distribute these 'Promotion Pills.'"

The clan leaders exchanged glances, their gazes meeting with unconcealed shock. They muttered, "Nine... six more than before!" For a moment, their emotions surged like surging waves, a mingling of excitement and nervousness. They knew perfectly well what these advancement pills meant to their respective clans, and the earth-shaking changes they would bring.

At this moment, the Dragon Emperor's slightly cheerful voice rang out again: "Don't worry, everyone. We still have two batches of spiritual herbs for the promotion pills that have yet to be refined. According to this Emperor's estimate, we can produce another six to nine 'Promotion Pills'."

As soon as these words were spoken, they exploded like thunder in everyone's ears. "What?" The Wolf and Tiger Clan leaders exclaimed almost simultaneously, their faces filled with disbelief. The Snake, Bear, and Fox Clan leaders, their previously languid demeanor from the cold, vanished in an instant. They abruptly stood up from their seats, eyes wide with astonishment. You know, in the past, each batch of spiritual herbs used to refine a promotion pill could only yield a maximum of three, and often it took three batches of spiritual herbs to successfully refine one. The number the Dragon Emperor had just revealed was far beyond their expectations. How could they not be utterly shocked?

After the turbulent emotions of the clan leaders gradually calmed down, the Dragon Emperor, seated at the head of the table, radiating an aura of supreme majesty, finally spoke slowly. His voice boomed throughout the hall: "Clan leaders, how should we distribute the 'Promotion Pills' this time? What are your thoughts and suggestions? Share them."

Prime Minister Bai spoke first, "Your Majesty, I suggest distributing it to the orcs of each tribe who need to take the promotion pills."

The Fox Tribe leader thought for a moment and then bowed, "Your Majesty, I agree with Prime Minister Bai. We will first distribute the pills to the orcs who need them. Any leftovers will be distributed to the various tribes."

At this time, the Lion Clan leader stood up and said: "I think we can hold a martial arts competition, allowing the beast tribes to compete for the promotion pill based on their strength."

The Peacock Tribe leader stood up and said, "Your Majesty, why don't we wait until all the advancement pills are refined before discussing the distribution issue? We can first calculate the number of advancement pills each tribe needs."

All the clan leaders spoke one after another, and the discussion was lively.
