The World of Beasts: Snake, I am the mother of all dragons
Chapter 323 The Patriarchs' Suspicion
In an instant, Bai Luoluo's expression became solemn, and his eyes swept across every family head present with determination.
"Next, I believe everyone present has a clear idea in mind. So, please state your stance."
Bai Luoluo's steady and powerful voice echoed in the air, carrying an invisible sense of oppression.
Xiao Yiyun, the head of the Xiao family, stood up first. His eyes revealed determination and loyalty. He placed his right hand solemnly on his heart and immediately expressed his joining in the name of the Beast God with an excited tone.
"My Xiao family is willing to join wholeheartedly, follow till death, and go all out!"
Ouyang Qingfeng, the head of the Ouyang family, also stood up immediately and echoed loudly with the same piety and determination.
"My Ouyang family is also willing to work hand in hand with everyone and obey your orders!"
The two men's voices were firm, injecting a shot of confidence into the negotiations.
Mu Qingwan of the Cailu Mu family raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a gentle yet powerful smile, and nodded gently, "Then it's a pleasure to work with you. I look forward to us creating brilliant achievements together."
However, the atmosphere at the scene did not completely relax because of this, and the Ye family and the Mao family were slow to express their stance.
Mao Run, the head of the Mao family, seemed a little uneasy under the gaze of everyone. There was a hint of panic in his eyes. He subconsciously turned his head to look at Ye Ling, his eyes full of inquiry and dependence, as if waiting for Ye Ling to make a decision.
Ye Ling slowly raised his head, his expression extremely solemn. His eyes were fixed on Bai Luoluo, and he asked, "I still have a question. Could you please answer it?"
"But it doesn't matter."
"Okay. Miss Bai, are you a witch?"
As soon as this question was asked, the entire secret room fell silent. Everyone held their breath, eagerly awaiting Bai Luoluo's answer.
After all, the abilities displayed by Bai Luoluo, whether it is the magic of prophecy or the production of Holy Healing Spirit Juice and Pregnancy Pill, seem to be something that only a witch can possess in everyone's cognition.
Bai Luoluo immediately understood Ye Ling’s concerns.
She had long heard that the Monkey Clan were kind-hearted doctors and had always been favored by the Beast God. Even the witch priest Lingxi was very caring towards them.
Ye Ling's doubts at this moment are perfectly normal.
If she was really a witch, she auctioned the Holy Healing Spirit at a high price, making the lives of the orcs seem to be divided into different levels. This is obviously contrary to the mission of the witch and the blessing of the Beast God.
Bai Luoluo said frankly without hesitation, "Although I possess some special abilities, I am not a witch at the moment."
“Hiss——”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"This...can't be right?"
This answer was completely unexpected to most people.
For a moment, everyone was whispering to each other, their eyes filled with confusion and curiosity.
"If this isn't a witch, then what is it?"
"So, predictions, healing, and even promoting reproduction—aren't these the abilities of witches?"
"How could it not be a witch? Could it be that these are not gifts from the Beast God?"
"..."
Ye Ling's expression became more and more solemn, his brows were furrowed, and he seemed to be thinking about something.
"Of course, I completely understand your concerns, Master Ye. You're simply worried that I might have evil intentions. If that happens, the entire Beast City will likely be plunged into an irreparable disaster, right?"
Ye Ling looked directly at Bai Luoluo without avoiding the question. "Indeed, you already possess such powerful abilities, and with Old Master Jin's family backing you up, you shouldn't need our insignificant help at all, right?"
The solemn and subtle gazes were fixed on Bai Luoluo, and everyone couldn't help but explore and wonder.
Ye Ling leaned forward slightly, her voice steady but with a hint of urgency: "Logically speaking, with your abilities and means, you don't even need our help to secretly develop and expand your power."
"But now you are so anxious to ask me to serve you. This really makes me feel strange."
Upon hearing this, Bai Luoluo couldn't help but sigh softly, and the sigh seemed to be filled with endless worries.
She raised her eyes, slowly sweeping her gaze over the crowd, her expression becoming increasingly serious. "Since that's the case, I'll be frank. What do you, the family heads, think of the impending beast tide?"
When everyone heard this question, they were all stunned and exchanged glances with each other. Although they felt strange about the sudden shift in the topic, they still expressed their opinions in a factual manner.
"I'm afraid this beast tide will be a bit difficult. Although we have been familiar with dealing with ferocious beasts over the years, the situation now is very different."
Mu Qingwan paused slightly, her brows furrowed, a look of worry on her face. "The recent situation in Beast City is not optimistic. The Shadow Wolf Clan of the Guards is divided and facing numerous internal conflicts. I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to take on such a heavy responsibility."
Another family head immediately said, "Yes, not only that, but rumors about Lie Xiaotian have been spreading everywhere recently. As the commander who fought against the tide of ferocious beasts, the city lord is now facing such a bad reputation. I'm afraid he will face many difficulties in command and construction this time."
As he spoke, he shook his head gently, his eyes full of helplessness.
After everyone paused for a moment, Ye Ling, who had been silent the entire time, said softly, "However, considering the strength of our several major families, combined with the other forces in the city, it should be more than enough to fight against the ferocious beasts."
Bai Luoluo listened quietly to everyone's speeches and slowly spoke, "Now, a beast tide is about to strike, and this time, it's completely different from the past. Beast City, which is facing both internal and external troubles, may be in danger."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone showed expressions of disbelief.
Patriarch Ouyang couldn't help but ask, "How is this possible? Over the years, Beast City's defenses have been strengthened every year. Why is it that they've failed this year?"
Everyone nodded in agreement. In their opinion, the defense of the Beast City was impregnable, and it was simply a fantasy for the ferocious beasts to break through.
"Even if the Shadow Wolf Clan can no longer serve as the main force, the major families are not all pushovers. A shortage of manpower shouldn't be a difficult problem for Lie Xiaotian, right?"
"But what if I say that Lie Xiao Tiancai will be the biggest crisis in Beast City this time?"
When Bai Luoluo expressed the idea that Lie Xiaotian might sacrifice the entire Beast City, everyone was unexpectedly confused.
"what?"
Everyone exclaimed, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.
"How is this possible? If so, why would he have worked so diligently to protect Beast City for so many years?"
Ye Ling stood up excitedly, unable to believe it.
"If, in his heart, the only obsession is to improve his strength, then power and status are just means to pave the way for him."
The family heads present were no ordinary people and they immediately analyzed the possibilities.
