I'm involved in poverty alleviation in a primitive tribe.

When the Flame Bird Warriors came to their senses and tried to avenge the Flame Bird Witch, they were immediately killed by the Jiang tribesmen.

The stone python has been mostly dealt with, and the stone python warriors have been subdued by the iron-eating beast warriors.

"Open your eyes and look at your people. They are still fighting for you, and this is how you treat them?"

The Flame Bird Witch said ingratiatingly, "They're wrong. I'll make them stop right now. As long as you release me, I'll let them come down and follow your instructions."

Having said that, he actually ordered all the Flame Bird warriors to stop.

Before the Flame Bird Warriors could even rejoice at learning that the Flame Bird Witch was still alive, they instinctively stopped what they were doing as the Flame Bird Witch had instructed.

Jiang Ning wasn't afraid that the Flame Bird Warriors would continue fighting; he was just afraid they would escape.

The Flame Bird Warriors who come here all have Flame Birds or other flying battle pets, but there aren't many flying warriors from the Jiang tribe. Once the Flame Bird tribe members scatter and run away, they are hard to catch.

Although the Xuan Shui Rock Turtle was powerful, it was unable to attack so many Flame Birds at the same time.

If a few of them manage to escape, it's hard to guarantee they won't cause trouble for us later.

"Have them come down first."

The Flame Bird Witch, however, was not so easy to talk to: "As long as you release me, I will let them down right away."

Jiang Ning looked at him coldly: "If they knew you planned to send them to their deaths, would they still listen to you so obediently?"

The Flame Bird Witch said nonchalantly, "They are blessed by me, and their power is a gift from me. Naturally, they should give their lives for me."

The Iron-Eating Beast Shaman roared, "Use him to threaten the Flame Bird Warriors! Their shamans have all been captured; I don't believe they'll dare disobey!"

The Flame Bird Witch was afraid of Jiang Ning and the Mysterious Water Rock Turtle, but not of the Iron-Eating Beast Witch. Even though he had been defeated, he still looked down on the Iron-Eating Beast tribe of brutes.

He snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "Then you're welcome to try!"

"you!"

The Iron-Eating Beast Witch was furious, but he couldn't do anything about the Flame Bird Witch.

The atmosphere became tense, and Jiang Ning had no intention of letting a Xuanwu leave.

According to Cang Er, there are many unclaimed people here. Even if the Flame Bird Witch is alone now, he can always form a new tribe if he wants.

The Flame Bird Witch knew that once the Flame Bird Warriors were all under control, he would have no chance of survival, and he would never let the Flame Bird Warriors come down easily.

Jiang Ning suddenly smiled and said, "I can let you go."

Upon hearing this, a glimmer of hope suddenly shone in the eyes of the Flame Bird Witch, shining with an almost frightening intensity.

The bumblebee witch and the iron-eating beast witch were filled with hatred and resentment, anxiously wanting to say something.

Seeing that Jiang Ning had agreed to the Flame Bird Witch's request, the Stone Python Witch, fearing that he would be left behind, quickly promised, "Release me! My people will all belong to you!"

Jiang Ning agreed, then asked, "Can we let them come down now?"

The Flame Bird Shaman quickly made his demand: "Give me a Flame Bird! Let me leave this place! Only then will I let them come down!"

Jiang Ning shook his head: "Do you think that's possible? If we let you go, wouldn't these Flame Bird warriors be able to go wherever they want? Can you really keep your promise?"

Seeing that her little scheme had been exposed, the Flame Bird Witch cursed inwardly and could only ask, "So what do you want?"

Red Moon was also very troubled, as their Sky Wolf tribe had always found it inconvenient to encounter enemies that could fly.

The bumblebee shaman stepped forward and offered a suggestion: "Shaman, our purebone bumblebees have a skill: they can make swarms of bees weaker than themselves obey them. Why don't I have the bumblebees lure some swarms here and control these fire birds?"

The Flame Bird Witch scoffed, "You think you can defeat my Flame Bird? The Pure Bone Bumblebee can only suppress a swarm of bees at the Extra Bone level. You think such a swarm can defeat my Flame Bird? Besides, where are you going to find a swarm of bees in the dead of winter?"

Jiang Ning also felt it was inappropriate. The group of firebirds brought by the Firebird Witch was indeed quite strong, mostly spirit bone ferocious birds or pure bone ferocious birds. The swarm of bees alone probably wouldn't be enough.

"I can only give you one firebird. Get them down first, and then I'll let you and this witch leave."

The Flame Bird Witch wanted to ask, "What's the difference between this and what happened before?"

Jiang Ning added, "You don't have to listen to me. Anyway, once you die, they will slowly become ordinary people and won't pose any threat to me."

The Flame Bird Witch racked his brains but couldn't come up with a good solution. Although he could order the Flame Bird Warriors to flee and join other tribes to avenge him, what would be the point of avenging him then, since he would be dead by then?

What does the life of my people matter? As long as I, the shaman, am alive, I can have as many people as I want in the future. My own life is the most important thing.

Thinking about what was in the animal skin bag he carried, he finally made a decision: "Alright! We'll do it your way! You must swear by the witch's seal that I will have all the firebird warriors come down, and then I will leave this place. No one here, including the battle pets, is allowed to stop me."

Jiang Ning's eyes flickered, and as if remembering something, she actually agreed: "Alright! I swear by my witch seal that as long as you make all the Flame Bird Warriors surrender, I will let you leave, and no one present, including the battle pets, shall stop you."

The bumblebee witch and the iron-eating beast witch have a blood feud with the firebird witch. Seeing Jiang Ning make such a vow, they were extremely anxious. Even Red Moon, who was standing to the side, could not understand Jiang Ning's choice.

When the Flame Bird Shaman saw that Jiang Ning had truly sworn an oath with the Shaman's Seal, he was overjoyed and immediately ordered the Flame Bird Warriors to land.

Their conversation was completely open, and many of the stronger warriors overheard their shamans betraying them, yet they were unable to refute it.

Warriors are awakened by shamans, and they cannot disobey the shamans' commands. In such situations, it would be better if they were just ordinary people, at least they wouldn't be so deeply controlled by the shamans.

A somber mood enveloped the Flame Bird Warriors and the Stone Python Warriors, but the others had no interest in paying them any attention.

The bumblebees stung them one by one, paralyzing their limbs. Then the iron-eating beast warriors swarmed in and tied them up one by one.

In the end, they ran out of bumblebee venom and had to knock out and tie up the weaker ones.

The Flame Bird Shaman summoned a flame bird and, with the Stone Python Shaman on his back, excitedly leaped aboard. He reassured himself, "It's alright. I'm a Mystic Shaman, the Stone Python Shaman is a Spirit Shaman, and we have that thing in our hands. Reorganizing a tribe won't be difficult. Then…"

He took one last look at Jiang Ning, deeply imprinting her appearance and aura in his mind, before urging the firebird beneath his feet to take flight.

With a flap of its wings, the Flame Bird took flight. Watching the Flame Bird's movements, the Bumblebee Witch almost shed tears of blood. She couldn't understand why, when her enemies were already in her hands, the witch would let them leave.

In the blink of an eye, Red Spot, who was gnawing on the stone python, casually raised his head and shot down the firebird that hadn't even taken flight yet with a spurt of blood. Then Red Spot turned back to continue gnawing on the stone python, which tasted quite good.

The Flame Bird Witch and the Stone Python Witch fell to the ground. Fortunately, the Flame Bird hadn't flown very high, and the Flame Bird Witch, being a level three warrior, quickly regained his senses and angrily shouted, "You swore an oath with your witch seal! You said you would let us leave! You said no battle pets would stop us! You broke your oath! Aren't you afraid your witch power will dissipate!"

Jiang Ning was overjoyed that she could finally clean up the battlefield and then have some time to take a good look at the Iron-Eating Beast.

She glanced at the Flame Bird Witch and kindly explained, "You're right, I swore by my witch seal that no one or my battle pet would stop me. But this Mystic Water Rock Turtle isn't anyone's battle pet, so what it does is none of my business."
