When Fangzheng brought the Witch Empress into the room, almost everyone in the room was stunned.
"High Priestess!!"
The Chief of the White Miao Tribe rushed over and knelt in front of the Witch Empress. Zhao Linger was also standing there, dumbfounded. She looked at her mother blankly with tears in her eyes. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't say anything.
"My child …"
At this moment, the Witch Empress also saw Zhao Linger. Or rather, the moment she entered, her attention was focused on her daughter. She quickly walked to Zhao Linger and extended her trembling hand. The Witch Empress' memory of her daughter was still stuck at the six-year-old girl before they escaped from the palace. Now, ten years had passed, and the little girl had grown into a slender and elegant lady.
"Mother —!!"
Zhao Linger screamed and threw herself into the Witch Empress' arms. Soon, the mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly. The others could not help but sigh when they saw this scene.
"Phew, anyway, at least one problem has been solved."
Fangzheng looked at this scene with satisfaction and nodded. Suddenly, a rash voice barged in from outside the door.
"Mother! I've found the Wind Spirit Pearl! "
Upon hearing this, everyone hurriedly raised their heads and looked towards the door. They saw a fourteen-year-old girl dressed in the Miao tribe's clothing happily rushing in. She was holding a Wind Spirit Pearl in her hand. The girl was stunned when she saw the people in the room. The White Miao Chief sighed helplessly and stood up hurriedly.
"Ah Nu, come and greet the High Priestess!"
"Eh? High Priestess? Eh? Lord High Priestess? "
The girl named Ah Nu stared at the Witch Empress with her eyes wide open and mouth as wide as an egg. After a while, she suddenly reacted and rushed to the Witch Empress.
"It's really Lord High Priestess. Do you still remember me, High Priestess? I'm Ah Nu! My mother and I visited you once … How did you end up here? I heard from my mother that you were executed by that hateful Shaman King, right? "
"That one is fake."
Hearing this, Fangzheng also interrupted at the right time.
"In fact, the real Shaman King was killed by Lord Moonworshipping ten years ago. After that, he found a Dryad to pretend to be the Shaman King, but I hacked him to death. The current Shaman King.... I wonder if he's a Peach Spirit or something else...."
"What? There's actually such a thing? "
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned and looked at the Witch Empress. The Witch Empress remained silent for a moment and nodded with a sad expression.
"This …"
For a moment, no one knew what to say.
"Done."
Fangzheng clapped his hands and broke the awkward silence.
"Now that the five Soul Orbs have arrived, we should consider what to do next … My opinion is that since the Witch Empress … or the High Priest has returned, the next step is to solve the drought problem. After that, we'll settle the score with the Black Miao Tribe. Of course, the Black Miao Tribe attacked the White Miao Tribe because Lord Moonworshipping spread lies. I think we can use the Witch Empress as a card to refute Lord Moonworshipping's lies. Perhaps we can invite a few reputable figures of the Black Miao Tribe to participate in the rain ceremony and let them see for themselves. Then, we can tell them the news that the Witch King has been killed. If we can get the support of the reputable leaders of the Black Miao Tribe, then we only need to deal with Lord Moonworshipping's lackey and the Water Demon Beast that hasn't been completely burned. "
"You're right, Lord."
The White Miao Tribe's chief nodded. Gai Luojiao had already retrieved the Fire Spirit Orb, and now that the Wind Spirit Orb was in her hands, she also hoped to solve this problem as soon as possible. Therefore, the White Miao Tribe's chief looked at the Witch Empress and asked respectfully.
"It depends on the High Priest."
"I have no opinion."
Although the Witch Empress was naive and sweet, she was still an adult. She knew that there were priorities. She had already reunited with her daughter, and there would be plenty of opportunities to reminisce with her in the future. The most important thing now was to solve the Miaojiang's drought problem. Therefore, the Witch Empress nodded and immediately stood up to make preparations.
The White Miao Tribe's people did things swiftly and decisively. The Witch Empress started preparing for the ceremony after saying a few words to Zhao Linger. On the other side, the White Miao Tribe's chief asked Gai Luojiao to bring some people to the Black Miao Tribe to check on the situation and inform them at the same time. At this time, Fangzheng called Lin Yueru, Nie Xiaoqian, and Caiyi over.
"Well, now you all know that the Witch Empress is going to hold a ceremony. But according to my experience, this kind of routine will usually cause trouble for the villains."
"Yes, yes …"
Hearing Fangzheng's words, Lin Yueru nodded. She had joined Fangzheng's' Game Testing Group 'for a few days, and she could understand the meaning of the villains' routines.
"Yueru, Caiyi, I want you to stay by Linger's side and pay attention to the surroundings. The Lord of Baiyue might send someone to cause trouble … Little Qian, go back to the airship. Tell Love Song to stop what she's doing and raise the airship to a high altitude. Head towards the direction of the altar and observe the surroundings. Report to me immediately if there are any unusual movements. "
"I understand, Brother Fang. Hold me."
Hearing until here, Lin Yueru also patted her chest, while Cai Yi and Nie Xiaoqian also bowed respectfully.
"Caiyi will obey the Exalted Immortal's order."
"I understand."
"Okay, let's go."
Following Fangzheng's order, the three women left immediately. At this time, Fangzheng breathed a sigh of relief. He naturally stayed with the Witch Empress just in case. After all, Fangzheng was sure that if the Lord of Baiyue knew about this, he would definitely make things difficult for them. Besides, the water demonic beasts were aquatic demonic beasts. They might not be able to do anything on land, but the water was their domain. Once the rain was successful, it would solve the drought in Miao Jiang, but at the same time, it would give the water demonic beasts a home advantage.
Fangzheng was sure that the Lord of Baiyue would take this opportunity to make trouble.
"Hey …"
At this moment, Fangzheng suddenly felt someone tugging at the corner of his clothes. He turned his head and saw the Miao girl, Ah Nu, looking at him curiously.
"You're Fangzheng? The immortal who flew down from the sky in a big white ship? You look like a Han, right? Why are you helping us? And how did you rescue the High Priestess? I heard from my mother that she was killed long ago. No one has found her for so many years … "
Ah Nu's mouth was like a lark, chattering fast. Her voice was also very pleasant to listen to. After all, in the game, Fangzheng could only see the text in the dialog box, and it was impossible for him to hear their voices. In that era, there was no such thing as game dubbing.
Hearing Ah Nu's question, Fangzheng's curiosity was piqued. He looked at her with a smile.
"You want to know?"
"Of course?"
"Haha, I'm not telling you."
As he spoke, Fangzheng stretched out his hand, pulled Ah Nu's smiling face, and left with a grin. Ah Nu stood there in a daze. After a while, she suddenly stamped her feet and came to her senses. When she wanted to look for Fangzheng, Fangzheng had already disappeared.
Everyone moved quickly. Not long after the airship ascended again, the preparations for the ceremony were completed. The Black Miao Tribe had also sent a few Elders to observe the ritual altar. One of the Elders who wore a black eye patch looked at the Witch Empress on the altar with a dumbfounded expression.
But at this moment, the ritual had already begun.
The Witch Empress placed the Five Spirit Pearls in five different directions on the altar. Then, she prayed in a low voice and began to chant the incantation for rain.
"Gods of heaven and earth! In the name of the Holy Spirit Nuwa, I beg you to grant new life to this land … "
As the Witch Empress prayed, thick rain clouds gradually appeared and covered the entire sky. Then … heavy rain poured down.
"It's raining! It's raining!! "
Looking at the rain falling from the sky, both the White Miao tribe and the Black Miao tribe screamed. However, the White Miao tribe was more excited while the Black Miao tribe was more terrified.
"Oh no, Lady Nuwa is here!!"
Many Black Miao soldiers dropped their weapons and ran for their lives. Not long after, more than half of the Black Miao soldiers ran away. They attacked the White Miao tribe because of the lack of water. Now that the drought was over, they were naturally unwilling to continue fighting.
It seemed like a crisis had been resolved just like that.
However, Fangzheng knew very well that things were not that simple.
"…"
He could feel the ground trembling slightly. At the same time, Fangzheng received a report from Ai Ge.
"Father, the meter shows that there are several signs of life approaching quickly from the three o 'clock direction!"
Upon hearing Ai Ge's report, Fangzheng's lips curled into a smile.
As expected, the Lord of the Baiyue Cult was here to cause trouble.
