Chapter 869: Collective Seclusion
"Yes, we will faithfully follow the Ancestral Tree's decree and your orders, Clan Leader!" All the elders of the Blue Gold Tree clan respectfully knelt before Tang San with full submission.
Tang San smiled slightly and said, "Over the next month, I'll guide everyone in understanding the power of the Ancestral Tree. Then, we will set off. I've already petitioned the Ancestral Court to inform the major cities of our demands. If within a month they still haven't released our clansmen, then it will be time for us to take action."
"Understood!"
After giving these instructions, Tang San ordered the elders of the Blue Gold Tree clan to cultivate on their own, to experience the benefits of the Ancestral Tree's blessing. Then, he too went into seclusion, not by the Ancestral Tree's side, but in the residence that had long been prepared for the clan leader.
Jin Miaosen had always followed closely beside Tang San, and naturally, she too had received the radiance of the Ancestral Tree. Her reverence for this "long-lost elder brother" far surpassed that of the elders. She had never expected to see him again, much less that his arrival would resolve the Blue Gold Tree clan's major issues in such a short time, and even show hope for the clan's rise. This was what every Blue Gold Tree longed for in their dreams! As a direct descendant of the Ancestral Tree, what could be more thrilling than this?
After seeing Jin Miaosen off, Tang San closed the door, sat cross-legged on the bed, and began to reflect on the gains from this journey, including his interactions with the Firedawn clan in the Magma Red Sea.
Without a doubt, the experience with the Blue Gold Tree clan was a pleasant surprise for him, but it was equally a great boon for the entire Daemon Continent. Unintentionally triggered by Tang San's chaos energy, the Ancestral Tree's awakening was an incredibly good thing for the entire continent. The previously dwindling fortune of both demons and nymphs had begun to rise again.
At the forefront of this, the greatest beneficiary was the Celestial Fox clan, which was not something Tang San had hoped to see. But what was done was done. The power of the Ancestral Tree, stemming from the very life source of the planet, was so immense that even if Tang San wanted to undo it now, he wouldn't be able to. Any attempt to disrupt it would inevitably provoke the wrath of the planar ruler. The life source of a planet was the foundation of its existence and evolution; nothing could be more important than that.
Therefore, all he could do now was go with the flow and guide the situation.
