When Lu Yun and the others returned to where the Houtu clan was, they found that it was crowded with people, all of them monks who had come down from above.

However, the destination was different. Lu Yun also saw the disciples of the Hidden Sword Sect led by Song Xiao.

When the two parties meet, the family naturally stands together.

There is a dispute in the cave.

It was the Bodhi Cave people and the Lishuijian people who were making trouble together.

The general process is that the people from Lishuijian discovered this place first, and after learning the reason from the Divine Doctor Valley, they took the initiative to help.

Then the Bodhi Cave man happened to appear.

These people discovered the existence of the Houtu tribe, thought they were being deceived, and wanted to arrest them for interrogation.

When Li Shuijian refused, the two sides started to argue, and when they were about to start a fight, a sword was inserted between the two sides.

The dark and simple heavy sword requires both hands to pull out, and can easily eliminate the anger of both sides.

Lu Yun walked to Wu Zhuo's side, looked at the depressed faces of both parties, and spoke in a calm tone.

"If you want to fight, go out and fight. This place will collapse. I don't mind giving you a sword first."

She doesn't mind if the two sects fight in the ring, as long as it doesn't interfere with her business.

"Or, you want to pick up the rest."

That "thing" is the tree demon.

At this moment, the tree demon is sitting on the mountain watching the fight between tigers. If you make a fuss, people will laugh at it. If you wait until both sides are hurt, the other party will take action leisurely. Isn't it just following the footsteps of the Houtu tribe?

After being reminded by Lu Yun, both parties became more awake.

Of course, the most important thing was that Lu Yun's previous deeds made them feel suppressed and did not dare to act rashly when facing Lu Yun.

The news of Lu Yun's previous injury has not spread to the Hidden Sword Sect, and the others still don't know Lu Yun's current situation.

"Lu Yun, what are you going to do?"

Song Xiao came over and asked, this attitude was led by Lu Yun.

"Everyone has invited us, so of course we have to go and meet for a while."

Lu Yun said with a chuckle, her expression was particularly arrogant.

If they were the only ones, they would probably have some concerns, but this time they were accompanied by those elders.

Lu Yun didn't believe that those elders didn't know the danger of the tree demon.

Letting disciples practice in danger, and letting disciples die are two different concepts. Those standing here are not elite disciples that the sect has cultivated with great difficulty. We cannot let them all die here.

Since those people allowed them to come here, it means that either they are watching in secret, or the tree demon has a solution that they can solve.

Lu Yun is more inclined to the second idea.

Therefore, it is natural to meet the tree demon.

"Are you really going?"

Datu hesitated here.

When he first met Lu Yun, he really wanted to trick them into confronting the tree demon, but when the number of people increased and he saw them discussing how to attack the tree demon, Dadu hesitated.

He is afraid.

The monks in front of me are so vivid, just like the first tribesmen of the Houtu tribe in the records.

But later.

Those living lives are dying here one by one.

The land of racial history failed to participate. Even if he shoulders a heavy mission and sorrow, he will not feel that those people died because of him.

But now it's different.

If the other party really died in the hands of the tree demon because of his instigation, he didn't know if he could bear it.

Having lived underground for so many years, Dadu has never seen the outside world a few times since he was born.

Depression, despair, sadness...

Here, day and night, he endured the torture of imminent annihilation.

His father was so tortured by these emotions that he later lost his mind.

Ever since he took over the responsibility of the clan leader, Dadu knew what kind of ending he would have.

He is the leader of the Houtu Clan and will also be the last leader of the Houtu Clan.

He would watch his tribesmen die one by one, and then wait for the moment he closed his eyes.The Houtu clan ceased to exist.

He was ready to accept his fate.

Destiny was slowly approaching as he thought.

Da Tu's mind was extremely complicated, and many thoughts were flickering in his mind. In his ears, the disciples of the sect were discussing how to kill the tree demon.

Confident and arrogant.

It was like, the tree demon who forced their race to perish was nothing in the eyes of the monks.

But since he was born, all he heard was how terrifying the tree demon was.

The first thing he learned was not to live, but how to deal with the bones of his own people.

He is a dwarf who grew up among white bones.

He is a coward who only dares to hide underground.

But...does he really want to bow his head and obey fate from now on, or even turn a blind eye to the hope that comes to him?

Dadi... was confused.

He lowered his head, his small voice was drowned in the crowd, and Datu's trembling shoulders were held down.

It's Lu Yun.

She was still standing, but now she was only slightly bent.

It was obviously a condescending gesture, but it did not make Dadi feel any aggression. Instead, it was peaceful, like a steady sword.

It has an edge, but it is hidden in a sheath.

"It's not just you, we want to get out of here too."

"This place is too small and it doesn't belong to us."

Lu Yun spoke plainly, and her voice was methodical, which made Datu feel at ease.

His body relaxed a lot and he looked up at Lu Yun, meeting a pair of clear and restrained eyes.

A faint sense of relief appeared in his pupils, like mist, making Datu's vision blurry.

Yes, it's not just the Houtu tribe who have to escape their fate now, but also these monks.

They are together, they are equal.

"Okay, I'll help you."

The hoarse voice spoke of Dadi's determination.

"Okay." Lu Yun took her arm away.

The cave is full of people.

The children of the Houtu tribe were still huddled in the corner, looking at these people with wide eyes.

Some are soft-hearted and feed those children with spiritual fruits and elixirs.

Under the influence of a large number of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, the bodies of those children finally regained life, and even their gray and dry eyes became bright.

But that's not enough.

Qi Yun wiped his hands and walked to Lu Yun's side.

"Sister Lu, if you want to save them, you must kill the tree demon."

The bodies of these children looked dry on the surface, but no external scars could be seen.

But their bodies, to be precise, their blood and even their bones are covered with a kind of roots.

Very thin and difficult to discern with the naked eye.

Lu Yun concentrated and saw small wriggling roots in the small piece of flesh and blood dug out by Qi Yun for research.

After leaving the petri dish made of the flesh, those roots did not die, but became more active.

It is these things that grow all over the body of the Thousand Earth Tribe.

They live on the nutrients provided by these roots, and are constantly demanded by these roots.

This situation is like being parasitized by a tree demon or living in symbiosis with a tree demon.

Regardless of the reason, as long as the tree demon is alive, the Thousand Earth Tribe cannot escape the control of the tree demon.

Only death can liberate this race.
