Chapter 461 - 460, The Heavy Gift_1
Ji Nuan nodded, "The saplings can drink it, but it’s best to consume only half of what an adult tree person would, otherwise, I worry they won’t be able to handle the potency of the potion."
The middle-aged tree person gratefully nodded.
When the others returned, their faces glowing red and brimming with vitality, Ji Nuan couldn’t help but let out a laugh.
The tree people looked at one another, then an elder tree person took out a big leaf package from his chest and placed it in front of Ji Nuan, "Shaman Ji Nuan, this is our old timers’ way of expressing gratitude to you."
Ji Nuan hastily refused, "The Clan Leader already gifted me with the Beast God fruit yesterday, and I can’t possibly accept any more."
The Clan Leader let out a hearty laugh, "Just accept it, Shaman Ji Nuan. If the worm disease can be treated, we won’t need as many Beast God fruits. There are only a limited number of Divine Wood Tree People that can survive on Beast God Mountain, having too many could affect our living environment."
Ji Nuan, under the expectant gazes of the tree people, opened the leaf package to find five Beast God fruits that left her assistant gasping behind her.
Ji Nuan shook her head with a wry smile, "This is too precious."
But the Clan Leader shook his head with a serious expression, "Shaman Ji Nuan, you may not understand the significance of this potion to our race. It’s not just a few old lives it saves. It’s the future of our Divine Wood Tree People."
With that, he addressed the gathered tree people, "Shaman Ji Nuan has created a potion to treat the worm disease for our race. Hence, we should give two Beast God fruits to Shaman Ji Nuan each year. What do you say?"
All the tree people present nodded in agreement unanimously.
Ji Nuan placed the Beast God fruits into her beast skin bag, stood up and asked, "How much potion would be enough for me to prepare more tonight?"
The Clan Leader stroked his white beard and pondered, "With bamboo containers this size, about twenty should do."
Ji Nuan nodded, intending to prepare thirty for them, as this process of brewing Fire Seed Fruit skin doesn’t take much effort at all.
"I’d like to go and see the contest grounds, I wonder..." Ji Nuan wanted to watch the Orcs compete for ranking with nothing else to do.
Mu Chun, now worm-free, and the other tree people stood up, "Of course, we’ll escort you. We made a promise to safeguard you in front of the clan leaders and your companion."
Ji Nuan laughed and nodded, as that was what she had in mind, given she didn’t know the way.
After bidding farewell to the Clan leader and tree people, Ji Nuan left the residence of the Divine Wood Tree People. After a short walk in the opposite direction to where the Orcs were stationed, they could hear the roars of the Orcs.
Turning around a few towering trees, a huge square emerged before them. Mu Chun led Ji Nuan to where the Watson Tribe’s people were. The sight of Ji Nuan surprised the creatures.
Ge Xing came over and eyed her up and down, "Weren’t you waiting for Xiu Yan to pick you up? How did you get here?"
Ji Nuan gestured behind to Mu Chun and the other tree people, their hair and eyebrows dyed brown by some unknown juice, "The potion was successfully brewed, and it proved effective in the trial. Since I had nothing better to do, I thought I’d come and take in the sight."
