Chapter 144: The Redemption of the He Lian Clan
Khaleno nodded unconsciously, yes, whether in his past life or this life, he had never seen such a beautiful scenery, so beautiful that he couldn't even describe it with words. The Yewmoe tribe was indeed the group of people closest to nature on this continent!
Alright, everyone's not standing outside anymore, let's go to the ancestral temple with R! Mu Mu Lin smiled and jumped to He Lian Nu's side, gently pinching his two arms with her hand, seemingly muttering to herself: Hmm, left wrist fracture, just rest for a while and it will heal naturally. The real trouble is the evil power in the left upper arm, this power seems to have no consciousness, only instinctively devouring soul power and creating chaos. However, using the secret method of our clan, we should be able to suppress it easily. As for the right arm... all the meridians are completely shattered, seemingly crushed by both ice and fire soul powers. Because too much time was wasted, this arm is almost impossible to fully recover now. Even if we manage to rebuild the meridians, it can only become a normal arm that can't circulate soul power... Ah, wonderful! Truly too wonderful... As she spoke, Mu Mu Lin's eyes shone with an eerie light, but it was unclear what she was excited about.
Although Mù Mù Lǐn's voice was very light, Hè Lián Nuò listened to every word without missing a single one. The more he listened, the more shocked he became. Mù Mù Lǐn had simply pinched his two arms and had completely figured out the internal injuries, even coming up with a treatment plan. The renowned medical skills of the Yào Mù clan were indeed not in vain. However, at the end, Mù Mù Lǐn exclaimed "Miao!" twice, but it was unclear what he meant. Was it just that as a brilliant doctor, he had an impulse to take on the challenge when faced with a difficult and complicated case?
"Wood Clan Chief, this right arm... is there really no way to cure it?" Helianthus hesitated for a moment before finally speaking up. Although his left arm could also wield a weapon, it was ultimately not as agile as his right arm. In battle, even the slightest difference could change the entire situation!
Of course, there's no way now, the meridians inside have already shattered like powder, and it's fundamentally impossible to connect them again. If you had found me immediately after being severely injured, I might still have been able to help you recreate your meridians, but now... it's a bit too late! Mu Mu Lin lightly shook her head, yet there wasn't the slightest hint of regret on her face.
It's really hopeless... Hekuren let out a soft sigh, helplessly glancing at his right arm which could only make slight grasping motions. To be honest, he had been hoping to get treatment from the Yōmoku clan all along this journey, but now the chief of the Yōmoku clan himself said that it was impossible to cure, which made Hekuren's heart sink to a low point in an instant.
Alright, everyone follow me, remember not to trample the flowers and grass, and don't disturb the small animals, they are also the masters of this space! Mu Mu Lin ignored He Lian Nu's loss and seriously walked to a large tree, using his hands and feet to climb up. Only then did everyone discover that countless vines were intertwined on the branches of the giant trees in this space, forming a crisscrossing network of roads in the air. With Mu Mu Lin's help, everyone climbed up one by one and followed him on the vine roads. Except for Mo Fei Bai who was afraid of heights and He Lian Nu who was feeling down, everyone else felt very refreshed. Lei Shuo kindly helped Mo Fei Bai who had gone soft in the legs, while Lan You Ruo tried her best to cheer up He Lian Nu. Everyone chatted and laughed as they walked, and soon arrived at an enormous ancient tree.
Under Lan You's persuasion, Helian has recovered a lot. He looked up and felt that this old tree was several times larger than the Yuexing Tree in the Youyue Forest back then. It would take hundreds of people to encircle it. Unlike the short and small Yuexing Tree, the height of this old tree is almost proportional to its diameter. Looking up, he could only see the thick branches blocking out the sky, and couldn't even see the sky itself.
"This big tree is the sacred place of the R tribe. Normally, unless there's a major event, it won't be opened, and it's even more impossible for outsiders to enter. But today's situation is special, so let's just follow R in. Shu Qiu, go prepare some food!" After Mu Mu Lin finished speaking, he walked to the side of the tree trunk, lifted his right palm and lightly pressed it against the trunk. A green light flashed by, and a wide entrance appeared before everyone's eyes."
Young master, please! This is the first time a descendant of Helian has entered since Yaomu's seclusion. Mumu Lin put away her smile and bowed, making a welcoming gesture.
He nodded and walked in with a solemn expression. As soon as he entered the interior of the tree, a refreshing scent of grass and wood wafted into his nostrils. The scent was extremely fresh and natural, and He Lian Nu couldn't help but sniff repeatedly, letting more of the scent flood into his body.
Because it's inside a giant tree, it's impossible to light torches here. To solve the lighting problem, the Yāo Mù tribe has specially domesticated a large group of variant fireflies scattered around here. The light from these variant fireflies is dozens of times stronger than that of ordinary fireflies, and the entire hall is illuminated very brightly.
Here, all the furnishings are arranged as they were back then. In the middle of the hall, several senior members of the family are seated, their clothes and hats still intact from that year's battle. They didn't even leave behind a single bone... Mu Mu's voice is somewhat subdued, it's clear that the battle had caused harm to the Mu family, although he hadn't personally experienced it, he could deeply feel it.
He Lian Nu was taken aback by the words, and immediately strode towards the interior of the hall. In the center of the hall, he indeed saw dozens of white spirit tablets, with some old clothes placed under them, which were naturally the last remaining items left behind by the ancestors of the Yao Mu clan.
For some reason, seeing these, Helian seemed to have seen that brutal war years ago. The Helian clan with the heavenly wolf holy mark on their chest bathed in blood and fought fiercely, wearing golden yellow battle robes, the Duanjin clan charged at the forefront of the troops, wearing green battle robes, the Yaomu clan's eyes were firm, constantly drawing the bowstring, wearing light blue battle robes, the Tian Shui clan protected all the comrades, even for the sake of their companions falling in the blood pool. Wearing fiery red battle robes, the Xuanhuo clan's face turned red, shouting and chopping down the enemy one by one, wearing black battle robes, the Shengtu clan crowded around Helian, fighting to the death to resist the knives, guns, bows, and arrows for them. It was a bloody battle with rivers of blood flowing, after that battle, the Helian clan withdrew from the Soul Realm, the five branches of the Helian clan hid their names and identities, everything was quickly forgotten with time, but everything was also remembered by some people like the ancestral clothes and hats being worshipped under the spiritual tablet.
He Lian'nuo walked to the spirit tablet, suddenly knelt down with a thud, and kowtowed three times in succession. It was clear that he had used all his strength, but after just three knocks, his forehead was already a bloody mess. Lan Youruo hastily pulled out her handkerchief to wipe it for him, but he pushed her away forcefully.
The ancestors of the Yāo Mù clan, the descendants of Hè Lián, Hè Lián Nuò. Today, I have come to pay my respects to you! Although it has been several hundred years since then, although I did not personally experience that war, although the outcome of the war was Hè Lián's defeat, however, everything you did is etched in my heart, I know that Hè Lián owes you an apology. Hè Lián owes you an apology, not because he dragged you into the war, but because after the war, he extinguished your hope for a comeback, Hè Lián Wú Shuāng, although he is our ancestor, but I am very clear that his choice to fall into the mortal world back then was completely wrong! And my purpose in coming here today is to correct this mistake, to lead the Yāo Mù clan, which has been forgotten by the mainland for so long, to reclaim their former glory. In the future, on a certain day, the Hè Lián wolf flag, which had disappeared for several hundred years, will definitely be planted at the peak of Yāo Yuè! Hè Lián Nuò's face was covered in blood, even his eyes were blurry from the blood, but he seemed to feel no pain. He only knew that before these people who had sacrificed so much for Hè Lián, he could only use blood and sincerity to redeem himself.
Ancestors, have you seen this? This young man who has been shouting about bringing Helián to the peak of Yāo Yuè is actually a descendant of Helián with the complete Tiān Láng Sacred Seal! I had always thought that since the Tiān Láng Pool was destroyed, the complete Tiān Láng Sacred Seal would never appear again. And before the Five Departments went into seclusion, they made a promise that would never be fulfilled. But I didn't expect this young man to appear and completely overturn my expectations. There's no way around it, the final trust of the Yào Mù clan is placed in his hands, although with some reluctance. If I decide to bring disaster to the Yào Mù clan today, ancestors, don't blame me! Mù Mù Lín didn't know when he knelt beside Helián Nuò, his tone was light and casual, without a hint of solemnity or respect. But when Helián Nuò turned to look at him, he found that Mù Mù Lín's face was already filled with tears!
Luo Fei was also kneeling, and at this moment he was looking at Mu Mu Lin with a mixture of emotions. He knew his old friend's personality all too well, and the more critical the situation, the more Mu Mu Lin would pretend to be nonchalant. In reality, those who were familiar with him knew that no one cherished relationships more than him, nor was anyone more loyal to the Helian clan!
Alright, the memorial service is over, let's go, it's time to let the old guys rest! Mu Mu Lin pretended to be nonchalant and wiped away a tear, slowly standing up, seemingly casual as she said to Helian No: Before we eat, let's take care of your right arm first!
What's going on? Didn't you say... Hurenno suddenly widened his eyes, and he still wasn't quite clear about the meaning of MuMu's words.
"Ah, yes, your right arm is completely ruined, and the meridians can't be connected again. It's thoroughly crippled, and even I won't be able to cure it. However, I can try... giving you a new arm! Mu Mu Lin smiled mysteriously and walked out of the great hall first."
