#1117 - Chapter 1117 Returning to the Yandi Tribe
"Excellent! Since you all agree, I won't be ambiguous. I'll prepare the sacrificial insect now, and we'll drink blood wine together to make our oath!" Long Liu said.
Afterward, Long Liu ordered people to prepare four bowls of wine. He picked up a bronze dagger and cut open a slit on the sacrificial insect's body.
The blood dripped into the bowls, and the wine instantly turned light red.
The four raised their glasses and drank them in one gulp.
...
In the following days, Long Liu kept his promise and successively transported a large number of bronze swords and bronze spears.
However, due to the limited number of warriors in La Di, only over three thousand were distributed.
The remaining weapons would be picked up by people sent by Lie Yan in due time.
As for La Di's debts, Long Liu generously wiped them all out.
In fact, the people of La Di had been working continuously for several months and had already created enough value. However, exploitation has no end, and the people of La Di would never be able to repay their debts as long as they didn't leave.
Blue Star Calendar, Nata Era, October 1287.
After staying in Long Di for nearly 8 months, the people of La Di finally embarked on the road to continue heading north.
This time, their destination was the new settlement of the Yan Di tribe.
Another month passed, and they finally reached their destination.
"Father! Father! I'm back!" As soon as Lie Yan returned to the tribe, he ran towards the central area.
Although it was also his first time back, the chief's residence was definitely in the very center. So he didn't need anyone to lead the way and naturally found it.
"Son... you, you, you... you're not dead?" Hou of Lie Huo could hardly believe his ears after hearing his son's voice.
"That's right! Father! I'm not dead!" Lie Yan replied.
"How is that possible? Didn't you fall off the cliff? How could you not be dead? No, no, no, this isn't real, I must be dreaming." Hou of Lie Huo shook his head desperately, unwilling to believe everything he was seeing.
"Father, I really didn't die, it was Taigong who saved me!" Lie Yan explained.
"Taigong? Are you talking about Yao Tao's father?" Hou of Lie Huo asked.
Now that Yao Tao had married Jin Wang Ji, her father was naturally Taigong.
"Yes." Lie Yan nodded.
"Good! Good! Good! That's really great!" Hou of Lie Huo exclaimed repeatedly.
Hou of Lie Huo only had this one son.
When he learned that Lie Yan had jumped off the cliff, he felt like the sky had fallen. In nearly a year, he had aged a lot.
Now that he learned that his son was actually not dead, a long-lost smile appeared on his hesitant face.
"Father, I'm sorry! It's my son who has implicated you and the entire tribe." Lie Yan felt a pang of heartache when he saw his father's white hair.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect you, kid, to say sorry now!" Hou of Lie Huo laughed heartily.
"Your son has grown up!" Lie Yan smiled.
At this time, Hou of Bai Yu and Cheng Bang also arrived.
"Taigong! Thank you for saving my son." Hou of Lie Huo bowed deeply to express his gratitude.
"It's nothing, this matter was originally inseparable from me." Cheng Bang waved his hand in response.
"Who is this?" Hou of Lie Huo looked at Hou of Bai Yu.
"Oh, Father, let me introduce you, this is the leader of La Di, Hou of Bai Yu." Lie Yan said.
"The leader of La Di?" Hou of Lie Huo was incredulous.
La Di was quite far away from Yan Di, and he didn't know why Hou of Bai Yu would appear here.
"Hou of Lie Huo, I've long admired your name." Hou of Bai Yu smiled.
They were people of the same level, so there was no need to perform etiquette.
"Yes, Father. In the past year, Taigong and I went to La Di." Lie Yan said.
"Is that so? What did you go to La Di for?" Hou of Lie Huo asked.
"Father, this matter is a long story, let's go inside and talk." Lie Yan said.
"Okay, please come in!" Hou of Lie Huo invited the two into the grass hut.
Ten minutes later.
"What? You... you actually dare to do such a rebellious thing?" Hou of Lie Huo was startled when he heard that they were planning to attack Jin Di.
"Father, don't get excited, listen to me finish." Lie Yan comforted him.
"Hmph! I just said that you've grown up after being away for a year. I didn't expect you to still be so naive and foolish!" Hou of Lie Huo didn't listen to what he had to say and directly came to a conclusion.
"Hou of Lie Huo, then tell me, where is the plan to attack Jin Di naive and foolish?" Cheng Bang asked.
"Taigong, please don't trust Lie Yan's words. Yao Tao is your daughter, how can you do such a thing?" Hou of Lie Huo said.
"Personal matters are small, Nata Clan matters are big. I don't want to bring the entire Nata Clan into eternal doom because of my own reasons," Cheng Bang said.
"Taigong, these words are too serious!" Hou of Lie Huo said.
"Are they too serious? Let me ask you, when Jin Wang first obtained the position of leader of the Nata Clan from the hands of the leader of Yan Di, did he have any selfish motives?" Cheng Bang asked.
