The gate of the city opened. Hao Tao, Tao Sha, and the other human elders walked out one after another.
People lined up neatly, stood on both sides of the main gate of the city, and solemnly bowed to Suiren-Shi. A few clan elders, who were descendants of Suiren-Shi, even knelt on the ground respectfully.
"Rise, don't stand on ceremony … Manners are important indeed, but if you stick to them too much, that would be bad." Suiren waved his hand, and everyone straightened their bodies. He gently glanced at everyone on the scene with his eyes, especially Man Man, Shaosi, Taisi, and Yu Mu.
Led by Ji Hao, everyone came to the headquarters tent. Suiren saw the Pan Gu bell and the Pan Gu Defense magic formation. He stopped, pointed at the bell, grinned, and said, "Marquis Yao, you're a good commander."
Ji Hao grinned embarrassedly. Suiren seemed to be complimenting him, but Ji Hao didn't hear any compliment. On the contrary, he seemed to be blaming Suiren. Suiren-Shi continued, "You're so good. You're almost like their biological parents."
Shaking his head, Suiren turned around, glanced at the group of human commanders, and said in a deep voice, "You're brave human warriors, human warriors. You wear armors and hold weapons, fight against spirit beasts, fight against the non-humankind, and protect your people. You're eagles soaring in the sky, not chicks hiding in their nests, trembling in fear. "
Pointing at the Pan Gu bell, Suiren continued, "This bell is powerful, and so is this great magic formation. This walled city was protected from the wind and rain. It was very safe and comfortable. You've been hiding in this city? Until now? "
Chuckling, Suiren walked to Yi Di and pulled out a few arrows from his quiver. He nodded and said, "Ah, these arrows are nice … They're at least ten times more powerful than the ones made by the best Eastern Wasteland arrow makers, aren't they? Where did they come from? "
Yi Di's face turned dark. He grinned embarrassedly and said, "Marquis Yao gave them to me!"
Suiren-Shi nodded and asked, "Can you make such powerful arrows yourself?"
The faces of Yi Di and the group of Eastern Wasteland archers turned green instantly. They looked at Ji Hao together — What a joke! Even Eastern Wasteland arrow makers couldn't make spell symbol arrows, so how could they?
Suiren turned around and looked at Ji Hao. Before he asked a question, Ji Hao hurriedly raised his hands and said, "With a pre-world supreme treasure, I analyzed the spell symbols of the hurricane, volcano collapse, and 'wolf tooth' and strengthened them, then made these arrows."
Suiren nodded and said with a deep voice, "Marquis Yao, you can't make these arrows yourself either, right?
Ji Hao remained silent. Compared to that five-colored cauldron, his tool-making skills were truly a mess. Po might be able to forge more powerful spell symbol arrows than the ones produced by the cauldron, but Po couldn't possibly forge tens of billions of powerful spell symbol arrows at one time like the cauldron.
Suiren glanced at Ji Hao, then turned to Yi Di and said, "If Marquis Yao isn't with you one day, and you don't have these top-grade arrows, can you still fight?" Suiren glanced at Ji Hao, then turned to Yi Di and said, "If Marquis Yao isn't with you one day, and you don't have these top-grade arrows, can you still fight?"
The faces of Yi Di and the group of Eastern Wasteland commanders immediately turned deathly pale. Their legs trembled, and they couldn't say a word for a long while.
Suiren then walked to the few elders of Taotie Clan behind Tao Sha. Fiddling with the Taotie tooth tied around their waists, he said blandly, "I remember that Taotie Clan has only one Taotie tooth, which is the greatest treasure of our clan. How many Taotie tooth do we have now? "
Man Man raised her hands, raised her Taotie tooth high, and said, "Thirty-one Taotie tooth in total, including mine!"
Suiren smilingly glanced at Man Man and continued blandly, "Making one or two Taotie tooth for the little girl to play with is fine. But as elders of your clan, these imitation Taotie tooth tooth … Alright, alright, we don't have too many of these powerful magic treasures, and it's not a bad thing to keep them as a trump card. But, look at your armors, your weapons, your blades, spears, swords, halberds, and all the other daily armors!"
All warriors lowered their heads and looked at their armors and weapons.
The armors and weapons worn by all human warriors in the city were all made by Ji Hao with the five-colored cauldron. They were all upgraded and improved by Ji Hao, and were now tens of times more powerful than the armors and weapons produced by their own clans.
"Good armors can help you survive on battlefields, and good weapons can help you kill more enemies." said Suiren with a deep voice. Suiren said in a low voice, "That's a good thing … The only bad thing is that these armors and weapons were personally forged by you?"
Suiren snapped, "Were these armors forged by the craftsmen of your clans and clans one hammer at a time? Were these weapons personally forged by your craftsmen? Were those spell symbols carved by your family's Maguspriests? "
"When you get used to getting good armors and weapons from Marquis Yao, when you don't have the time to study better forging methods and spell symbols, when all your armors and weapons become better from Marquis Yao … If one day, Marquis Yao is gone, what will you do?"
Suiren walked to Ji Hao, shook his head, and grabbed Ji Hao's wrist.
"I was going to talk more with you, but I thought about it. There's no need to. You should think about what you should do in the future."
Pointing at the north, Suiren continued in a deep voice, "In the north, those water-kind spirit creatures are heading south again. Stop them and buy time for the flood-control army. This is what you should do. Do you want to stay in the city like chickens, or rush out and fight against those water-kind spirit creatures? Make your choice! "
Suiren's tone turned especially harsh as he continued, "I just want you to remember one thing. Ever since the ancient time, facing any enemy, no human warrior has ever won a victory by hiding behind a high wall! The territory and the foundation of the human race today are all earned by generations of warriors with swords, sabers, and hot blood! "
"Are you all cowards who don't dare to fight to the death?"
Suiren said this in a serious tone. Hearing this, the faces of all elders and warriors on the scene blushed.
"Hao Tao, from now on, this army is under your command. I won't force you to do anything. I only want you to do your best! " Pointing at Hao Tao, Suiren waved his hand. The Pan Gu bell silently flew up and flew back to Ji Hao.
Ji Hao called the bell back. Following Suiren's request, he chose Man Man, Shaosi, Taisi, Feng Xing, and Yu Mu to come with him. Even Yemo Shayi stayed in the city, under Hao Tao's command. Next, Suiren wielded his broad sleeve and released a dazzling fiery light, then the group of people disappeared.
