Chapter 214: Chapter 214: Huo Liuli’s Choice

At this moment, Huang Fei seemed to detect something and suddenly looked towards Bing Xiao.

But Bing Xiao was one step ahead and spoke directly, "Lord Huang, when we catch Xiao Zhan later, can I vent my anger on him?"

Huang Fei was stunned for a moment, his doubts immediately dissipated, and he laughed, "Of course, there’s no problem. Xiao Zhan, that guy, anyone can vent on him."

"Haha, then thank you, Lord Huang."

"It’s a trivial matter."

Jiang Xian’er listened to the conversation between the two and breathed a sigh of relief.

Compared to Huang Fei, Bing Xiao was not nearly as treacherous.

At the same time.

As Huang Jun’s men invaded the Earthfire Tribe, the unalerted Earthfire Tribe was caught off guard and many were killed before they even had the chance to react.

However, even the most careful ambush can be detected and as the enemy moved deeper, the commotion grew.

Eventually, with a fireball shot into the sky, igniting it, the entire Earthfire Tribe knew of the enemy’s invasion and immediately responded accordingly.

At this time, the Ice Dragon on the outskirts knew it was their turn to act.

With a low shout from Bing Xiao, the Mystic Ice Dragon appeared above his head.

"Members of the Mystic Ice Tribe, follow my command and charge with me!"

"Kill!"

Inside a stone house of the Earthfire Tribe.

Huo Lingjun saw the alert outside, her expression changed dramatically, and she sat up from the bed.

Huo Liuli also entered the door at this moment, but her expression was not particularly panicked, "Clan Leader, unidentified assailants have launched a sneak attack on us, and they’ve already broken through our defense line."

"They’ve broken through the defense? And they are unidentified? Not from the Mystic Ice Tribe?" Huo Lingjun asked in quick succession, surprised.

Huo Liuli shook her head, "So far, there’s no sign of the Mystic Ice Tribe. The attackers are exceptionally strong, most are Fire Attribute Artifact Spirits; they must have come prepared."

"Others?" Huo Lingjun thought of the group that had been searching for Xiao Zhan outside.

She sneered, "Even if it’s others, they must be in collusion with the Mystic Ice Tribe. Without the Mystic Ice Tribe’s support, no one can penetrate the core area of our tribe!"

As soon as Huo Lingjun finished speaking, a dragon’s roar came from outside.

Then she felt a subtle change in the temperature around her.

She guessed correctly; the people from the Mystic Ice Tribe were indeed involved.

She immediately said, "The strength of those outside is extraordinary, and they’re in league with the Mystic Ice Tribe; we’re not their match at all."

"Since the defense line has already been breached, we might as well not hold it; notify everyone to retract inward, fall back to wherever they can!"

Huo Lingjun was gathering their strength for a last desperate stand.

"I’ve already arranged for this," said Huo Liuli.

Huo Lingjun was somewhat surprised, not expecting Liuli to make the correct arrangements.

Then she added, "The Mystic Ice Tribe has chosen to collude with outsiders. Tonight is destined to be a battle of life and death; we can’t proceed with the original plan anymore. Have you made up your mind?"

Hearing this, Huo Liuli’s expression faltered, hesitating.

Seeing her like this, Huo Lingjun knew she hadn’t made up her mind and said anxiously, "Where is Huo Li? Get him over here first."

Huo Liuli shook her head, "Huo Li is not in the room."

"Send someone to bring him back."

Huo Lingjun was frantic and looking at Huo Liuli’s hesitant expression, she sighed helplessly, "How can you have the best of both worlds? You have to make a choice tonight."

Huo Liuli said, "I know."

Huo Liuli always spoke so calmly, making people wonder if she were an emotionless robot.

But Huo Lingjun knew she wasn’t like that; the once vivacious Liuli had reasons for becoming what she was now.

Thinking of that reason, she felt a pang of pain, and as if thinking of something, she fell silent.

After a moment, she said quietly, "Actually, after fighting with the Mystic Ice Tribe for so many years, both I and our tribe’s members are tired. I’m old now and can’t change, but Xiao Zhan’s emergence is a chance for change, and the only chance you have. Your mother had no choice before, but you do."

Hearing this, the calmness on Huo Liuli’s face finally showed a trace of emotion.

However, the emotion quickly passed, and once again, she regained her composure, "I know what to do."

With that, Huo Liuli walked out of the stone house.

Huo Lingjun watched her departing figure fade away, feeling suddenly very tired; she lay back down on the bed, looking out the window, her expression solemn yet relaxed.

Now injured and unable to do anything, not even activate the Fiery Fire Array, the future of the Earthfire Tribe was entirely in Huo Liuli’s hands.

It was either to choose like her mother, to sacrifice herself for the sake of continuing the tribe’s century-old lineage.

Or to choose to break the rules, to take a revolutionary path.

All of this depended on how she decided.

Elsewhere, Xiao Zhan and Ye Youlong realized an invasion was happening while they were asleep and immediately reacted.

Dressing quickly, they went to the frontline, but they did not rush into battle because they noticed the people charging at the front were different from those of the Mystic Ice Tribe.

"Judging by their attack methods, they should be from an army," Ye Youlong’s voice came.

She was more familiar with the army and could infer it from some of the habits exhibited by these people.

Xiao Zhan’s heart sank upon hearing this, "If these are army people, then there’s no need to guess; it would be Huang Jun’s men. It seems Huang Jun has reached a cooperative relationship with the Mystic Ice Tribe."

"We have even more enemies now."

But Xiao Zhan just smiled lightly, "What does it matter if there are more? Here in the Earthfire Tribe, it’s our home ground; even if Huang Jun sends twice as many people, they’re all on a path to death!"

Ye Youlong also nodded, "Let’s take this opportunity to completely finish them off."

"Good!"

Xiao Zhan immediately ran towards Holy Fire Square.

If it had been two days earlier, they would have been very worried.

But after exploring a small forest called "Holy Fire Origin" with Huo Liuli, Xiao Zhan no longer feared anything.

At this moment, the tribespeople of the Earthfire Tribe were converging towards the square.

The synchronized attack of the Mystic Ice Tribe and Huang Jun left them powerless to resist, and with the retreat order from Huo Liuli, they all fled with life-threatening speed.

Soon, the last member of the Earthfire Tribe entered the square.

It didn’t take long for Huang Jun and the others to arrive in front of the square.

Huang Jun gestured, and all his people surrounded the square tightly.

The Ice Dragon, seeing this scene, couldn’t help but let out a triumphant laugh, "Huo Lingjun, why aren’t you resisting this time? You might as well activate the Fiery Fire Array?"
