As soon as Bai Qiankun stepped out of the courtyard, he saw a young member of the Huang family leading a large group of people toward him.

"What's going on here?" Bai Qiankun's smiling face suddenly fell.

"Clan leader, why did you come out? Where is Qiao Yaoyao? You must stand up for us!" Huang Shijiu, seeing Bai Qiankun, burst into tears.

"Yeah... that scourge has come out to harm people again!"

“I told you we couldn’t just leave her in the tribe because she’s female. Look what’s happened, she’s caused a death.”

Behind Huang Shijiu, some older females and young animals also joined in the discussion.

They are all not very capable of working, and for safety reasons, they usually stay in the tribe during the day.

The fact that they can still survive despite not being able to work shows that they are supported by others and have connections within the tribe.

Bai Qiankun frowned. "What nonsense are you talking about! You Yellow Rabbit Clan brat, your maternal grandmother is alright. Hurry up and go inside to pay your respects to your great-grandfather."

As for the others, this matter is a misunderstanding, and Elder Huang Gao has already resolved it. The shaman cannot tolerate any noise here. If you are bored and don't see anything interesting, go to the front and help me cut the animal meat.”

"What?" Huang Shijiu's young face was full of surprise.

She didn't even have time to cry anymore.

At this time, many of the Huangtu tribesmen who had been assigned by Huang Gao to repair Niu Dian's courtyard also came out.

Huang Shijiu met one of their eyes. "Cousin, is Grandma alright?"

"Hmm. What's this?"

When he saw the small group of people behind Huang Shijiu, his round eyes widened in surprise.

"......"

They were called here by another cousin along with Old Huang.

My cousin was the same way back then, crying his eyes out, saying how terrible and vicious Qiao Yaoyao was, and how badly she had harmed his grandmother.

He instantly understood that these people were also hired by that lunatic Huang San to 'seek justice'.

Before, he was one of these people, even though he was only half a beast crystal.

Now, he felt a chill run down his spine. "Cousin, please send everyone back safely. Thank you all, but it was all a misunderstanding. We misunderstood the witch doctor and the others."

Huang Shijiu was clearly somewhat skeptical of his words, after all, even witch doctors could turn bad!

"Cousin, everyone has come from so far away, at least let them see their grandmother!"

"That's right, that's right, let us take a look before we leave."

"Of course, let us meet the old lady."

"I'm sorry, everyone, but our grandmother needs to rest and can't be visited right now. If you'd like to see her, please come back in a few days."

The others who had come out to repair the wall also stepped forward.

Bai Qiankun's eyebrows were still furrowed. "Did you hear that? It's all a misunderstanding. If you want to visit, come back in a few days. If you're free, come with me to help out in the tribe."

Seeing that the Yellow Rabbit Clan members and their chieftain all said so, everyone tactfully waved their hands, "In that case, we'll come back in a few days. Hahaha, Chieftain, we'll be going now."

They're not stupid. They'd rather contribute in this situation and not get any benefits in return. Besides, their bodies aren't strong enough to withstand the strain. They should just go home and get some sunshine.

Soon, the crowd dispersed, and Bai Qiankun didn't waste any time, immediately transforming into his beast form and leaving.

One of the men stepped forward and pulled Huang Shijiu, who was still standing there in a daze, up.

"Huang San is being scolded inside right now. If you don't believe me, go and secretly go see your grandmother."

Huang Shijiu rubbed his red, swollen eyes. "Cousin, is Grandma really alright?"

The man patted his head. "Of course, would we and the clan chief joke about something like this? Nineteen, stay away from Huang San in the future, don't become as stupid as him."

Huang Shijiu pursed her lips. "Then I'll go see my maternal grandmother."

"Okay, go ahead, just watch quietly from outside, don't go in and get yelled at." His older brothers reminded him, but ignored him and started repairing the courtyard wall.

The old witch doctor's cave on the other side.

The old witch doctor listened for a while inside the cave and knew what was going on, but he didn't take it to heart at all.

Niu Dian will handle this small matter. Besides, no tribe would dare to truly offend a witch doctor.

So, after Qiao Yaoyao left, he took out his scepter and slowly cultivated to recover the divine power he had lost while treating Qiao Yaoyao.

When Niu Dian requested an audience again, he brought in the unconscious Qiao Yaoyao.

The old witch doctor felt genuinely dizzy.

"Who hurt her?" the old witch doctor asked in a hostile tone.

Niu Dian carefully put the person in his arms down. "There was no one there. She used her divine power to save people and then fainted from exhaustion."

"Nonsense, her staff is still with me, how could she use divine power?"

Niu Dian: "I'm also surprised, but she really can use divine power with her bare hands."

The old witch doctor's heart pounded wildly.

Could it be!

Could it be that his previous guess was true?

The old witch doctor looked at the unconscious Qiao Yaoyao with a complicated expression, then whispered to Niu Dian, "Little Dian, don't tell anyone about this."

As he spoke, he mysteriously walked towards another cave inside the house. After a moment, he took out a scroll filled with leaves.

Then, he carefully unrolled the scroll, and fearing that Niu Dian might not understand his meaning, he pointed to a withered yellow leaf with inscriptions on it.

"Perhaps it is true, but whether it is or not, let's pretend we don't know."

We'll talk about it another day.

Niu Dian's eyes became dull after they fell on the leaves.

He nodded slowly. "Yes, Master."

The scroll records a myth widely circulated in the world of beasts.

Legend has it that many, many years ago, there were no beastmen on this continent. Later, a god named Ba fell in love with a dragon beast on earth, and the dragon beast gave birth to a child who was half-god and half-beast.

This child is their Beast God.

But there's another passage here, one I've never heard of before: it's said that among the descendants of the Beast God, if there are beastmen with divine power, they will be born with a great deal of divine power.

Furthermore, they can use divine power without the aid of external tools.

But having this power is not a good thing.

According to the leaves, every orc who possesses this divine power has seized the power of the Beast God, so they must voluntarily sacrifice themselves to the Beast God after their abilities have reached their peak.

Otherwise, the power of the Beast God would be diminished, and the power that could be bestowed upon ordinary beastmen would become weaker.

The old witch doctor sighed softly, "It's hard to tell right now, so don't worry about it and don't tell anyone else."

"Yes, Master." Niu Dian's eyelashes trembled, and he lowered his head slightly, hiding the emotions in his eyes, and replied respectfully.

The old witch doctor nodded. His apprentice was more cold-hearted than him. By the time Qiao Yaoyao grew up to be able to be sacrificed, he would probably be gone. At that time, he would just throw Niu Dian to carry out the sacrifice.

He reached out and summoned his scepter, then broke off the branch that belonged to Qiao Yaoyao and placed it on her body.

Then he waved his scepter.

White divine power enveloped Qiao Yaoyao, and the bells on the scepter jingled. Amidst the clear and melodious sound of the bells, Qiao Yaoyao slowly opened her eyes.

"Master, Senior Brother!" Qiao Yaoyao sat up abruptly, touching the animal skin bag in her hand. She asked in confusion, "Did I just faint?"

The old witch doctor looked up and couldn't help but roll his eyes at her.

"Yes. You have overused your divine power. In the next few days, you should learn the proper conduct of a shaman from Niu Dian. Do not act rashly. The first thing we shamans need to cultivate is a calm and peaceful mind."

The old witch doctor took two deep breaths. The Beast God must have been testing him, which was why he suddenly awakened Qiao Yaoyao's witch doctor abilities just when he was about to return to the Beast God's side.

Then, in just one day, he used up the divine power that would have taken him several months to recover.

He tried his best to maintain the calmness and composure he had cultivated over the years.

"Alright, Qiao Yaoyao, you can go now. Remember to cultivate diligently, and don't forget that the punishment within you still needs cultivation to be lifted!"

"What punishment?" Niu Dian frowned slightly.

"Oh, it's about when I used the witch doctor's power to hurt people..."

"So I need to reach level three of witch doctor within three months." Qiao Yaoyao explained to Niu Dian helplessly.

Then she smiled ingratiatingly at him, "I'll need your guidance a lot in the future, senior brother. My life depends on you!"
