As the braided priest finished speaking, there was a burst of exclamation from the crowd, followed immediately by several slightly harsh words.
"The high priest is right. The last clan leader has been missing for so many years. Although this boy has taken the pendant of the gods, he may not be the real young master."
"Yes, I think there is a high probability that they are spies sent by the Five Tribes to deliberately split our Eternal Tribe..."
Disturbing words kept coming. I looked up and saw that the people speaking were all young and strong men. Obviously, these people should be the guards raised by the little braided priest, and it was normal for him to speak for him.
Dong Shoucheng was so angry that he drew his sword and went to settle the score with the guards.
However, they are more powerful in numbers, so they are not afraid of being alone in Dongshou.
The braided priest next to him squinted his eyes, seeing that the situation was a little out of control, and he showed a look of gloating.
I said in a calm voice: "Dong Shoucheng, according to the clan rules, what is the crime of framing the clan leader?"
"It's a serious crime, and according to clan rules, you should be executed!" Dong Shoucheng replied.
I nodded, my eyes narrowed, and a trace of killing intent flashed in my eyes!
I was holding a short knife in my hand, and the little braided priest was less than two meters away from me!
I appeared in front of him with a big stride, and then I raised my knife and dropped it, and a bloody human head rolled to my feet!
I stabbed the bloody human head with my short knife, raised it high, and shouted coldly: "This person wantonly framed this young master, he should be killed according to the clan rules!"
I glanced at the other three priests and the silent priest guards, and said word by word: "Whoever questions my identity, please also come forward!"
After I finished speaking, everyone below looked at each other in complete silence.
But in this silence, several priests' guards suddenly stood up and wanted to rush forward with their weapons drawn.
I raised my eyebrows, but before I could take action, Dong Shoucheng, who had seen all this long ago, had already blocked their way. He grabbed a big knife in his hand, and with fierce force, he pulled out the few who had not had time to pull it out.
The priests and guards with weapons chopped them to the ground like chopping melons and vegetables.
"Anyone who is dissatisfied with the young master must first pass me, Dong Shoucheng!" Dong Shoucheng shouted, holding up the bloody sword.
He already had a loud voice, but this roar immediately shocked the entire audience!
The three priests behind them suddenly showed a look of fear and quickly knelt down on the ground.
"We have met the young master. When the young master returns, the eternal tribe will last forever for generations to come!"
As soon as the three priests expressed their stance, the rest of the tribal people could no longer hold back their excitement and fell to the ground one after another, shouting loudly.
"Long live young master!"
"The Eternal Tribe will last forever!!"
I stared at this scene, and my heart moved slightly.
I threw the human head on the knife to the ground. It was not that I was too ruthless. I had just arrived, and I was incompatible with these priests who had vested interests. If I didn't have some necessary means, I might be the one who would be decapitated, but it was me.
Already...
I glanced behind me at the priest who was kneeling on the ground with a respectful expression on his face, and said, "Tell me all the affairs in the tribe. In addition, take this body away. From today on, Dong Shoucheng will be our eternal tribe."
the high priest.”
Dong Shoucheng was startled. He didn't expect that I would actually let him become the high priest, and he suddenly didn't recover.
"Young Master, Dong Shoucheng is not the high priest. My father and my grandfather have been waiting for the return of the clan leader. Unfortunately, they could not serve the clan leader until their death. This is their lifelong regret. Now I, Dong Shoucheng, am honored to follow the young master.
After the master's death, I would rather be a vulgar servant who goes through fire and water for the young master than be a superior priest..."
Dong Shoucheng’s words were true, and my heart felt warm after hearing them!
"Needless to say, your boss is very loyal to my Chen family, and I have seen it. You are the most suitable person to take the position of high priest... The Eternal Tribe has been without an owner for hundreds of years, and now everything is in ruins. I hope
You can do more for me, and from now on, I will look at anyone's performance. As long as they are loyal and talented, everyone will have the opportunity to become a priest. I want this eternal tribe to no longer be chaotic and peaceful.
Decline, I want the Five Clan tribes to be uneasy from now on!!"
My voice fell slowly, and everyone was inspired, especially the white-haired old men. Although most of them were over fifty, they burst into tears after seeing the return of the Chen family that they had served for generations...
Dong Shoucheng suddenly knelt down on the ground and said: "Shoucheng swears again that if he has second thoughts about the young master in the future, he will be punished by heaven and earth!"
"Okay, get up. You have worked hard these days to take care of Dong Bo's funeral. The other three priests will give you two days to report your respective properties and belongings to me. I don't want the Eternal Tribe to be left in ruins.
At this time, someone was lining their own pockets..."
The three priests prostrated themselves on the ground, not daring to look at me, and kept saying yes.
I turned to leave, and before I left in the crowd, I inadvertently looked back and saw that the faces of the three priests were particularly ugly, and two of them had extremely cold eyes.
I looked up outside and saw that there was a splendid house not far away. Compared to the tents and thatched huts next to it, it was much more magnificent. And this house was owned by one of the priests.
From this point alone, we can feel that the ruin and weakness of the Eternal Tribe cannot be separated from the destruction of these four priests.
If we want to revive the Eternal Tribe now, the first thing we need to solve is to let the people have food to eat, have clothes to wear, and solve their most basic difficulties. Only in this way can they follow me more wholeheartedly.
Naturally, all the resources and things needed for this have to be scraped off from a few extremely wealthy priests...
The next day, Dong Shoucheng sent me a group of young men from the tribe.
Each of them has dark skin, and most of them wear simple animal skin sweaters. They are not even strong.
But Dong Shoucheng told me that they, like the Dong family, have honored serving and being loyal to the clan leader for generations, so they are no better than those corrupted priests, these young men who are so poor that they can’t even eat enough food, but they are more loyal to the clan leader.
The most loyal supporter of the clan leader.
Dong Shoucheng pulled this group of men in front of me. Under my gaze, they raised their heads and their eyes were bright. Although most of them were thin, their faces were all filled with respect and joy...
"I've seen the young master!" they shouted in unison.
A thought occurred to me, these people are the executors I need most urgently right now!
I thank Dong Shoucheng from the bottom of my heart. With him, I feel a lot more relaxed in the tribe.
I stared at these strong men and said: "I know that you have been hungry and cold for a long time. I also know that your ancestors were servants and generals of the Chen family. Your loyalty is unmatched. From now on,
You are my escorts... The Eternal Tribe has been dilapidated for a long time, and it is time to restore its former glory."
I changed the topic and continued, "I order you to immediately confiscate all the property of the former high priest. If there is any resistance, kill them on the spot!!"
