Chapter 489: 489
"We would have become a second-grade tribe smoothly if only Luo Yunyang hadn't killed Leiming . That trouble-maker has sinned against the Human Tribe!" a young disciple from the Fiery Sun Path lamented .
His words quickly gave rise to resonating opinions . After all, getting promoted to a second-grade tribe had seemed easily obtainable before this hiccup had occurred .
Even though there was no reason to blame Luo Yunyang, this mood was contagious and people couldn't help but vent .
After all, the allure of becoming a second-grade tribe was just too great . For starters, if the Human Tribe became a grade-two tribe, the territory the humans would receive would bring them massive benefits .
"What shall we do now, Senior Brother Li?" a person with attractive features and slightly thin lips asked respectfully .
"What else can we do? This is already done . In my opinion, we should grasp this opportunity and find all sorts of ways to foster good relations with the Thunder Ray Tribe . Otherwise, we might be unable to ascend to a second-grade tribe even after 1,000 years . "
The man known as Senior Brother Li enjoyed the attention he was getting and spoke in a deadpan manner . "The Human Tribe is a subordinate of the Thunder Ray Tribe . We can't ascend without the Thunder Ray Tribe's approval, don't you agree?"
The handsome man nodded . Someone couldn't help but retort, "Unfortunately, our tribe's relationship with the Thunder Ray Tribe has already reached this state…"
The atmosphere became stifling when he said this . Although the Thunder Ray Tribe and the Human Tribe were not considered mortal enemies, it was still hard for the two tribes to live harmoniously .
"If we satisfy the Thunder Ray Tribe, everything else won't pose a problem," said the man known as Senior Brother Li .
This was a critical time for the Human Tribe, so Senior Brother Li wondered how he could lobby for support . Just as he was about to continue, he suddenly felt the atmosphere all around them tense up . He turned his head and saw Ke Linqi walking over slowly .
"Greetings, Uncle-Master!"
Ke Linqi had already ascended to the Nebula-Grade Realm . His status had also progressed considerably, so he was now the second-in-charge of the Fire Spirit Sky .
Due to his cultivation base, most people in the Fire Spirit Sky feared and respected him . Senior Brother Li, who had been speaking so enthusiastically just moments ago, bowed respectfully when he saw Ke Linqi .
After all, Ke Linqi could turn his world upside down with just a snap of a finger .
"You are trying to say that the Human Tribe should wag its tail and beg for mercy before the Thunder Ray Tribe in order to become a second-grade tribe?" Ke Linqi asked indifferently .
Senior Brother Li seemed embarrassed by this sudden question . He had a bad feeling about this . Thus, he struggled hard to control his emotions before replying respectfully, "I am only thinking of the Human Tribe, Uncle-Master . "
"Under the circumstances, if the Human Tribe wants to rise, there is only one way—we have to be forgiven by the Thunder Ray Tribe . "
Although Ke Linqi didn't comment, the corners of his lips curled up slightly . Before Senior Brother Li could feel any sense of self-satisfaction, a palm landed hard across his face .
The slap was extremely resounding . Senior Brother Li was so embarrassed that he couldn't think properly .
"You useless thing! Listen carefully! If a tribe wants to rise, it has to rely on self-improvement and personal strength . It will definitely not rise by being servile or underestimating itself!" Ke Linqi said icily . "If a tribe doesn't even have the right attitude to strive unremittingly, it can forget about becoming a second-grade tribe . Even a first-grade tribe that acted this way would only be someone else's slave!"
"Scram!" Ke Linqi snarled like a lion . As he was rebuked, Senior Brother Li nearly fell to the ground on his butt .
His heart was filled with rage as he stared at Ke Linqi . However, all this rage ultimately turned to shame .
The other Fiery Sun Path disciples that had been trying to reason with Senior Brother Li experienced flashes of understanding .
If the Human Tribe relied on others for everything, then it would be nothing but a slave of the Thunder Ray Tribe .
"Uncle-Master, this way, our road to becoming a second-grade tribe will be practically gone . "
Ke Linqi glared at the disciple who had spoken and said icily, "A mountain that stands thousands of miles tall can be formed by accumulating dirt!"
As Ke Linqi left, the Fiery Sun Path Disciples present felt like a fire had been lit in their hearts . Yes, the Human Tribe might not have passed the assessment this time thanks to the Thunder Ray Tribe's involvement . However, this had mainly happened because the Human Tribe lacked strength .
Practically all the disciples subconsciously made their way towards their private cultivation chambers . The young disciples currently felt a sense of responsibility .
Although Ke Linqi didn't look back, he was pleased with the reaction of these disciples .
