Lei Dian Shi stood quietly at the entrance of the Tengu clan's residence. The surroundings were so quiet that one could almost hear the sound of falling leaves.

The sunlight lazily sprinkled on the ground, but it could not dispel the heaviness in his heart.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the empty camp, his mind full of thoughts as he wondered how he could meet the leader of the Tengu clan.

After all, since the Crown of Wisdom is a treasure, it is most likely in the hands of the Tengu clan leader.

If the treasure is obtained by stealing or robbing, it is impossible no matter how you think about it.

Not to mention that he didn't know where the treasure was, even if he knew he couldn't get it.

We can only try direct negotiation.

But the problem now is, why is there no one at such a big door?

Just as he was lost in thought, a sinister aura quietly approached from behind him.

He turned around suddenly and saw two tall and mighty guards appear there like ghosts.

They were dressed in exquisite black armor, the armor plates gleaming coldly in the sunlight, and their faces were as cold as rocks.

One of the guards stepped forward, holding his spear horizontally, and said in a voice as cold as ice:

"Who are you? How dare you trespass into the Tengu clan's residence!"

Lei Dianshi's heart tightened, but he quickly calmed down. He straightened his chest, pointed at the Baichen clan clothing on his body, and said slowly:

"I am an envoy from the Baichen clan, and I wish to see the chief of the Tengu clan on an important matter."

Another guard frowned, his eyes filled with suspicion. He slowly paced around Lei Dian Shi, carefully examining him and questioning:

"A human? An envoy from the Baichen clan? Do you have any proof?"

Lei Dianshi secretly groaned in his heart. He had no proof at all. He came here to hunt for treasure as part of a deal with Qianhu Garden.

But Lei Dianshi remained calm and replied calmly:

"I came here on the orders of the Baichen clan elders. The matter is urgent, so I don't have any credentials with me."

"But I have undoubted faith in the friendship between the Baichen and Tengu clans, and I believe the clan leader will definitely meet me."

Although Lei Dianshi didn't know whether there was any friendship between the two tribes, since the guards would interrogate him instead of taking direct action, Lei Dianshi guessed that the Tengu tribe should remain neutral towards humans.

Therefore, the Tengu clan and the Baichen clan should have some intersections, so it is not an exaggeration to say that they have friendship.

The two guards looked at each other, obviously not believing his words.

They took another step closer, their spears almost touching Lei Dian Shi's chest, and threatened:

"Stop talking nonsense! If you don't tell the truth, I won't let you off easily."

Beads of sweat appeared on Lei Dianshi's forehead. He racked his brains to think of a countermeasure, but found that he was gradually losing the trick.

Just when he felt desperate, a steady sound of footsteps was heard.

A woman came quietly like a cold wind.

She was dressed in black and purple warrior armor, looking heroic.

Her long purple hair was tied behind her head, fluttering slightly in the wind.

His eyes were sharp and firm, as if he could see through all obstacles.

She nodded slightly to the guard and said concisely:

"I'll take this person away."

The guards looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, put away their spears, and stepped aside.

The woman walked up to Lei Dianshi and gave him a cold look, without a trace of warmth in her eyes.

Then, she turned around without a word and walked deeper into the camp with Lei Dian Shi, leaving the two guards looking at their backs with puzzled expressions.

The woman walked into the Tengu clan's residence with Lei Dian Shi. The stone pavement under her feet seemed to carry the sediment of time.

Tall buildings are arranged in an orderly manner, and ancient totems are faintly visible on the walls.

They came to a quiet reception place, which was surrounded by lush green plants. Several elegant flowers were quietly blooming, emitting bursts of fragrance.

A small pavilion sits in the center, its wooden structure exuding an ancient atmosphere.

There are several exquisite low tables and cushions in the pavilion, and a set of simple and elegant tea sets is placed on the tables.

The woman stopped and turned slightly to Lei Dian Shi and said:

"Wait here, I will help you notify the clan leader."

Her voice was clear and cool, like a mountain spring.

After saying that, she turned and left, her long purple hair fluttering gently in the breeze, leaving behind a mysterious silhouette.

Lei Dianshi looked at the direction the woman left, and countless doubts arose in his heart.

He didn't understand why the woman wanted to help him.

He slowly walked to the pavilion and sat down, his fingers gently stroking the tea set on the low table, feeling the delicate texture.

He looked around, trying to find some clues from the surrounding environment.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the waiting process was extremely long.

Lei Dianshi became increasingly restless. He paced back and forth in the pavilion, thinking about various possible situations.

Finally, the woman came back. Her steps were light, but carried an unquestionable strength.

But the news she brought was that the patriarch was missing.

Lei Dianshi opened his mouth and wanted to ask something, but the woman's cold eyes instantly forced him back.

Her eyes were as cold as ice, making Lei Dianshi feel a chill.

He swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth, feeling helpless.

The woman said expressionlessly:

"It's getting late today. You can leave now or stay overnight. Don't accuse me, the Tengu clan, of not knowing how to entertain guests."

"Of course, only for one night."

Her tone was firm, leaving no room for negotiation.

Lei Dianshi thought for a moment and decided to find a way to meet the clan leader no matter what.

He looked up at the sky, and the afterglow of the setting sun dyed the horizon orange-red.

He knew that if he left now, he might never have the chance to see the patriarch again.

So he decisively chose to stay another night.

He sat quietly in the pavilion, his eyes revealing determination and persistence.

He began to plan his next move, thinking about how to impress the leader of the Tengu clan and get him to give him a chance.

The night breeze blew gently, bringing a hint of coolness, but Lei Dianshi's heart was still burning.

The sky gradually darkened, and the night like thick ink enveloped the Tengu clan's residence.

Lei Dianshi sat alone in the reception courtyard, with a thousand thoughts in his mind.

At this moment, a figure appeared quietly, it was the woman.

She held some food in her hands and placed it silently on the table.

Her movements were gentle and graceful, as if she was afraid of disturbing the quiet night.

There was no conversation throughout the whole process. After putting down the food, the woman turned around and was about to leave.

The moment she turned around, Lei Dianshi's heart moved and he called out to her:

"Wait a moment, may I ask your name, young lady?"

The woman paused for a moment, then uttered a few words softly:

"Tenkuri Sara."

Lei Dianshi's heart was shaken, and a guess came to his mind:

She may be the ancestor of Kujo Sara.

But he immediately hid this thought very well, without showing any clue on his face.

He bowed slightly and said respectfully:

"Thank you, Miss Sara."

Lei Dian Shi knew that his greatest hope of meeting the leader of the Tengu clan lay in the woman before him.

He began to think of a solution, and soon, he had an idea. He coughed lightly and said slowly:

"Miss Sara, I'm new here and I'm curious about the Tengu Clan's residence. Could you please tell me the story of this place?"

Tianshu Sara frowned slightly, but when he saw Lei Dian Shi's sincere eyes, he hesitated for a moment and stayed.
