Chapter 780 - 772: Great Fate Master (Second Update)
The Youluo Tree Beastman listened to the question, paused, seeming to ponder. After a while, he seemed to think of something and said, "It seems to be a very powerful Artifact Refiner."
"It was sought by the Clan Leader of the most powerful generation of the Vine Clan at that time. The Clan Leader even promised the Artifact Refiner something, it was that if he ever encountered a female, he would protect her."
For some reason, upon hearing these words, Su Muyao’s heart suddenly raced several times.
She always felt she was close to the truth.
Yue Wuhen realized something, glanced at Su Muyao, and asked, "What kind of female?"
The Youluo Tree Beastman said, "I don’t know what kind of female, I heard this news through Ci Xiang."
"When Ci Xiang spoke these words, her expression was strange."
"Oh, by the way, she said it’s an animal-type female. She said that the main reason her Thorn Flower Clan was exiled was that the Flower Clan High Priest didn’t speak a word for them. That High Priest only gave them Thorn Flower Illusion Moon Liquid, saying that by using the liquid of the Thorn Flower Illusion Moon Liquid, they could sense the aura of that female."
"She was very unhappy, feeling that even the High Priest only wanted to protect that female. She didn’t understand what kind of female could make the High Priest biased."
"She said, if only the High Priest had spoken a word for the Thorn Flower Clan at that time, they wouldn’t have been exiled."
"She said the High Priest did it intentionally, so her clan would be exiled here, waiting for that female, to protect her."
Teng Lixuan listened to these words, then looked at Su Muyao, and even the green tear mole on his face seemed to move slightly, "Miss Su, you wouldn’t happen to be that female, would you?"
Su Muyao’s complexion changed dramatically, her expression turning blurry as she said, "How could it be possible."
How could she be such a female?
But if she wasn’t, many things would not make sense.
Shen Ci’an’s lazy expression turned deep, "Flower Clan High Priest?"
"Is the Thorn Flower Clan a branch of the Flower Clan?"
The Youluo Tree Beastman said, "The Flower Clan is vast; the Thorn Flower Clan is just one of the many clans within the Flower Clan. The High Priest is the High Priest of all flower-like clans, holding a revered position as the belief of Flower Clan Beastmen, different from ordinary High Priests, also called Great Fate Master."
The Youluo Tree Beastman carefully looked at Su Muyao and softly said, "At that time, Ci Xiang dripped medicine on my branch, which carried the aura of Illusion Moon Liquid. As long as the aura of that female is sensed, the Secret Technique Power on it will activate."
The Youluo Tree Beastman roughly understood that Ci Xiang intended to use him to harm that female.
Her heart was already twisted.
However, in hindsight, the Youluo Tree Beastman realized that Ci Xiang might have liked that High Priest.
Originally, she wouldn’t dare to wish for that High Priest because he was so revered, untouched by worldly matters, devoid of desires.
She could keep her emotions to herself.
But if that High Priest had a female he cared about, Ci Xiang couldn’t handle it.
Ci Xiang’s nature was quite obsessive, so doing such things seemed not so surprising.
No wonder, when Ci Xiang was with him back then, she often mentioned that Flower Clan High Priest.
Upon hearing this, Yue Wuhen already understood something. Of course, Mei Qingchen and Shen Ci’an realized that the female might be Su Muyao.
Yue Wuhen said, "How did she know that the searched female would ultimately come to dig up your Youluo Branch?"
The Youluo Tree Beastman said, "I’m unsure, maybe someone could predict or divine?"
Su Muyao thought of the Beastman who could predict Heavenly Secrets, Luo Leshuang.
But Luo Leshuang was from the outside Beast World, how could he be involved with the ancient plant-type Beastmen?
Yet Su Muyao felt something wasn’t right.
Because the Luo Clan had connections with the Youluo Sword Sect.
The Youluo Sword Sect also knew about the so-called Youluo Fragrance.
Perhaps there were some links among them.
"Do you know the Luo Family?"
The Youluo Tree Beastman was puzzled for a moment and said, "Seems there’s a Luo Clan, but I don’t know about the Luo Family."
"My memory is incomplete, mostly fuzzy, unsure if it’s correct."
He only knew clearly about matters concerning Thorn Flower and Jin Lianrong.
Since he’s a fragmented soul, naturally his memory was broken and incomplete.
Even so, Su Muyao and the others learned quite a bit of information.
Su Muyao felt complex and heavy, believing she might have some secrets herself.
"Then do you know about the Destructive Black Lotus and Chaos Wild Beastman?"
The Youluo Tree Beastman said, "Feels familiar, but can’t recall."
"Lotus? Seems related to the Golden Lotus Clan."
They asked about several things; the Youluo Tree Beastman didn’t know much but shared what he did know.
Su Muyao had a persistent question, "Do you have many Artifact Refiners there? What kind of Beastman are they, plant-type Beastmen?"
The Youluo Tree Beastman replied, "Artifact Refiners are very rare and very valuable. If a truly powerful Artifact Refiner exists, all clans would seek him for artifact refining, because truly powerful Magic Artifacts can save lives."
"Oh, yes, the Thorn Flower Clan isn’t good at attacking. If they had attacking Magic Artifacts or even protective Magic Artifacts, their clan could become stronger. Unfortunately, some powerful Magic Artifacts aren’t purchasable at will."
The Youluo Tree Beastman also liked powerful Magic Artifacts.
In Su Muyao’s perception, there currently aren’t any Artifact Refiners in the Beast World.
Various clans and major powers hold Magic Artifacts inherited and passed down, not newly refined.
Su Muyao recalled Xia Min mentioning something about Ancestor Sang.
And remembers that, during her time in the Fox Clan, Hua Linye merged with the Fox King’s Inner Core, obtaining the memory of the Fox King from ten thousand years ago, saying that Sang Yao later awakened the ability of artifact refining on his own.
When Su Muyao previously analyzed certain matters, she hypothesized that someone in the Insect Clan could refine Magic Artifacts, otherwise how would Liu Mengyan possess so many life-saving Magic Treasures?
But these were just speculations, difficult to investigate.
It turns out that long ago, when plant-type Beastmen existed, there were already Artifact Refiners.
The Youluo Tree Beastman shared so much also in hopes of survival.
Of course, he had his own intentions but didn’t show them.
"I have shared everything I know with you, could you let me go?"
Yue Wuhen looked at the Youluo Tree Beastman and said lightly, "Though you shared a lot, you could harm your once-fiancee, your childhood sweetheart, out of a misunderstanding, by using Youluo Fragrance, which shows your nature."
"Moreover, you supported the Black Lion Beastmen against the Golden Leopard Clan, and the outside Beast World has Black Panther Beastman from the Youluo Sword Sect. They also know how to wield Youluo Fragrance, trying to control Mei Qingchen."
Mei Qingchen’s face changed a few times.
If he hadn’t made a puppet beforehand, he might now be under the control of the Youluo Sword Sect, perhaps would have acted against his wife several times.
After Yue Wuhen gave him the Golden Lotus Branch and Heart Blood, he understood the puppet’s memory.
Knowing the puppet acted against his wife with a sword made his heart unbearable just by imagining it.
Not to mention, without him using the Purification Power, the Golden Leopard Tribe might not exist anymore.
The Youluo Tree Beastman listened to these words, his face changed dramatically, unexpectedly they didn’t believe him.
Shen Ci’an approached the residual soul of the Youluo Tree with a smile, saying, "You still have a Secret Technique. You deliberately let us relax our vigilance to believe you, so you can find an opportunity to survive by taking over us."
The Youluo Tree Beastman was shocked, how could this Beastman know his thoughts.
