Zhan Xuan sneered. "If the legend of the Holy Cave is true, those people would be wishing for a thunderbolt to strike them. Why would they curse your sister, the clan leader? After all, even if the clan leader and I were engaged, someone else would still have to be sent in. Who would be willing to abandon their own daughter?"

Ye Li followed his advice and immediately took him to a hidden valley.

However, he soon heard hurried footsteps behind him, and Xie Jianshu complained, "You two are so mean! How could you leave me and run away?"

Ye Li quickly reminded him, "Shh, keep your voice down, Boss Xuan and I are going to do something big!"

Xie Jianshu was in high spirits: "If you want to accomplish great things, how can you do it without me? We are a trio of heroes!"

Zhan Xuan raised his hand and patted the back of his head: "Don't be so self-indulgent. What are you good for?"

Xie Jianshu argued aggrievedly: "I can be a lookout for you, Boss Xuan, how can you despise me? We are good brothers who have been through life and death together!"

Zhan Xuan scolded in a low voice: "Shut up, if you keep talking nonsense I will really kick you back, do you have to make such a fuss? Do you think everyone knows that you are going to do something bad?"

Xie Jianshu quickly covered his mouth with a pleading look on his face.

Just at this moment, a rolling thunder suddenly exploded in the ears of the three people, and the rumbling sound spread far away.

Ye Li said worriedly: "Boss Xuan, it looks like it's going to rain heavily!"

Zhan Xuan said gloomily, "This is the opportunity we've been waiting for. Is the Holy Cave ahead of us?"

He pointed to a raised mound and asked!

Ye Li nodded: "Yes, when I became sworn brothers with the clan leader's sister, I came here to burn incense. Look, isn't that the incense table?"

After determining the location, Zhan Xuan took out three explosive bombs without hesitation.

He warned Ye Li and Xie Jianshu, "Stay away to avoid being injured by the explosion!"

The two asked almost in unison: "What about you?"

Zhan Xuan frowned and replied, "I have my own way of defending myself. I'm strong and I can run fast, so I won't get hurt!"

After getting his assurance, the two of them retreated far away.

Zhan Xuan raised the corner of his lips sarcastically, raised his hand and threw out three explosive bombs.

Lightning suddenly exploded in the sky, and with the power of the thunder bomb, it actually blew up the entire mountain.

The rumbling sound was deafening, as if the sky was falling.

Zhan Xuan fled in the flying mud. After meeting up with Ye Li and Xie Jianshu, he ran towards the dense forest.

Ye Li suddenly stopped in his tracks. He looked at the sky in horror and said, "Boss Xuan, look, what is that?"

Zhan Xuan subconsciously looked up and saw a giant silver python flying towards them amidst lightning and thunder.

He couldn't help but sneer: "I thought there was some holy object, but it's just a fattened venomous snake!"

Seeing that the giant python was about to rush in front of the three people, he promptly threw all the remaining thunder bombs in his hand at them.

"Bang bang bang!" After several loud noises, a bloody hole was seen on the giant python's body, and broken flesh was splattered everywhere.

Not far away came the terrified voices of the witches: "Chief, these outsiders have damaged the sacred objects. They deserve to die. Capture them!"

Pang Qiang led his men to rush in front of them, and just then the giant python fell to the ground without a sound.

She asked in disbelief: "Ye Li, it was you guys who damaged the sacred object, right?"

Zhan Xuan interrupted first: "It's not us. Didn't you see the lightning and fire exploding in the air? It must have done so much evil and suffered a calamity from the heavens!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed drastically.

Xie Jianshu also echoed: "Exactly. We are human, not gods. How can we have such great abilities?"

Pang Qiang breathed a sigh of relief. She turned to look at everyone and said, "You heard it too. They just happened to be here. The sacred object was destroyed by lightning and fire. They had nothing to do with it!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a woman in a blue brocade dress walked out quickly and said, "Pang Qiang, you are trying to excuse them. Because they helped you get rid of the sacred object, you no longer have to enter the Holy Cave and feed it with your flesh and blood, right?"

Pang Qiang glared at her in dissatisfaction: "Chu Xiu, as the leader of the witch tribe, I am fully aware of the mission I bear. I will never disrespect the sacred object!"

Chu Xiu raised an eyebrow: "Okay, to prove your innocence, you ordered them to be killed. It was because of their arrival that the sacred object was in trouble. This also means that our witch tribe no longer has the protection of the gods!"

Her words garnered support from many people, who shouted, "Kill them! Avenge the sacred object! Calm the gods' wrath!"

A trace of panic flashed across Pang Qiangyu's pale little face. She was careless. Why didn't she realize Chu Xiu's ambition before?

She subconsciously took a half step back and whispered to Zhan Xuan who was standing not far away: "What are you still standing there for? Take Ye Li and run away quickly. I'll delay them for a while!"

Zhan Xuan subconsciously frowned. As a real man, he would not run away from the battlefield.

Besides, Ye Li would definitely not want to leave, after all, Pang Qiang was his savior.

Thinking of this, he said coldly: "The so-called sacred object is nothing more than a python that devours human flesh and blood. Since you care so much about it, why don't you use your own body to feed it?"

A trace of guilt flashed across Chu Xiu's face, but she forced herself to say, "This is the clan leader's duty. She is a woman surnamed Pang, and only her flesh and blood can satisfy the sacred object!"

Zhan Xuan looked at Pang Qiang sympathetically: "Look, these people think you are a fool. They are using your life to exchange for their peace!"

Chu Xiu argued anxiously: "You are talking nonsense. We all respect the clan leader very much. How could we treat her as a fool?"

Zhan Xuan calmly asked, "Then why did you watch her die? Did you know that she had to go to the Holy Cave on her coming-of-age day?"

Chu Xiu wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Grandma: "Shut up, since the sacred object has been killed by thunder and fire, it must be its calamity. We can only obey God's will!"

Chu Xiu's gloomy eyes rolled around. She was silent for a moment before she gritted her teeth and said, "Grandma, the death of the sacred object is Pang Qiang's fault. She can't stay in the witch tribe any longer. She must be driven out!"

Grandma was stunned for a moment, then she heard Pang Qiang's loud reply: "Okay, from now on, I am no longer the leader of the witch tribe. You all take care of yourselves!"

After saying that, she stood together with Zhan Xuan and the other two.

Ye Li shouted excitedly: "Sister Clan Leader!"

Pang Qiang gave a bitter laugh: "Where is the clan leader? I have been expelled from the witch tribe. From now on, just call me Sister Qiang!"

Ye Li narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Sister Qiang is going back to the Northwest Military Camp with us. Boss Xuan will definitely be able to help you conceal your identity!"
