Among the two deacons behind Yu Xiao, a young man with a thin body and sharp eyes immediately bowed and said.
"Back to the Great Elder, the letter was sent out ten days ago. Even if it was delayed on the road, the Eighty-one Village should have received the letter a week ago."
"Um."
Yu Xiao didn't say much. Since no one came, let's just wait. It's just that in previous years, the last cottage that came here would be scolded by Yu Xiao.
"Shashasha..."
Not long after, the sound of neat footsteps came from the grass. The footsteps sounded like a large number of people, but the noise caused by the movements was uniform.
Immediately afterwards, a team of a hundred people could be seen walking from the grass to the open space around Lingxiao Mountain.
Most of the entire team are young men and women with impressive appearance. Although these people are young, their cultivation level is not low. From the blood energy emanating from their bodies, it can be seen that these people are not comparable to those of Miluo Village.
The middle-aged man at the front of the team, tall and tall, came at full speed. Seeing Yuxiao, he laughed and said
"Hunyuan Village pays homage to the Great Elder. I haven't seen you for a year, but the Great Elder is still strong and healthy, hahaha."
Hunyuan Village is the strongest village of Jiuli Tribe.
Li Wendao, the leader of the Hunyuan Village, is a leader in the late stage of the Earthly Immortal Realm. So Yuxiao had to give him some face, and then smiled and said
"It turns out I asked my brother."
Smiling, Yuxiao continued:
"Every year, Hunyuan Village is the first to arrive. The other villages are a little slack."
A word of slacking off proved that Yu Xiao was already dissatisfied.
Li Wendao led the team forward and said slowly
"You can't blame them. Maybe other cottages have limited cultivation and are slower to travel."
Although his tone was light, it was full of arrogance.
Their Hunyuan Village is the strongest among the eighty-one villages. Not only the clan leaders and elders are strong, but also the cultivation of ordinary clan members is not low.
With a high level of cultivation and a good leader leading the way, it is difficult to slow down in a hurry.
"Who has limited cultivation? It seems like your people from Hunyuan Village didn't come very fast, right?"
At this moment, an unhappy voice came. Then a team of hundreds of people came out of the grass. All the tribesmen in this team, regardless of gender, had dark skin and even stronger bodies. And looking at the blood energy exuding from these people, it is also not low.
"It turns out to be brother King Kong from Jinshan Village."
Looking at the middle-aged man leading the group with a provocative look on his face, Li Wenwen smiled playfully. Jinshan Village is also one of the top four among the 81 mountain villages of the Jiuli tribe.
Among the top four copycats, except for Hunyuan copycat, which is firmly ranked first, the other second, third, and fourth rankings are not specific to which copycat. Therefore, the other three cottages all want to surpass Hunyuan cottage and claim the first place.
Looking at Jin Guang, the leader of Jinshan Clan, who was walking slowly and full of strength, Li Wenwen couldn't help but asked arrogantly.
"Brother King Kong, don't you agree with what I just said?"
As he spoke, the pressure around Li Wendao burst out like a volcanic eruption, and the pressure from the late stage of the Earthly Immortal Realm pressed towards King Kong.
However, he is also the leader of the top four copycat clans, and King Kong is also in the late stage of the Earthly Immortal Realm. Therefore, King Kong also responded with a heavy snort, showing his coercion and resisting Li Wenwen.
For a moment, the two clan leaders were at war with each other. However, it can be seen in the pressure that fills the sky, even if they are both in the late Earth Fairy Realm. However, the combat power ratio between King Kong and Li Wendao is still somewhat inferior.
"Hey, it's so lively."
At this moment, a team came from the other direction. The patriarch at the front turned out to be a middle-aged woman. The middle-aged woman was wearing a blue gauze dress, and the decoration on her jade arms looked like the feathers of a peacock.
As for the team behind the woman, the men are handsome and the women are handsome. Peacock Village is also among the top four villages in the Jiuli tribe, and it is also the most beautiful village in the entire tribe.
"It turns out to be Miss Kong Yu."
Seeing the woman who suddenly appeared, Li Wendao and King Kong stopped at the same time. Several of their major cottages were competing against each other, so Li Daodao and Jingang didn't want them to fight here, leaving Kong Yu to watch the excitement.
"Hey, I thought I could watch a fight between dragons and tigers. It's boring."
Seeing the two of them calling it a truce, Kong Yu, who was walking slowly, waved his hand and said slightly disappointed. A few words, but full of endless charm.
"Sister Kong Yu, don't use your charm skills on us. We have been fighting since we were young. After so many years, who doesn't understand who? Can you trick me?"
King Kong said carelessly.
If it were anyone else, they would have seen what Kong Yu looked like just now. Maybe he would be fascinated and fall under Kong Yu's pomegranate skirt, taking Kong Yu's words as a command. But King Kong and Li Daowao's combat power is superior to Kong Yu's.
In addition, I was wary of Kong Yu's charm skills, so I didn't catch him.
"Okay, everyone, stop arguing. All the copycats will be here soon. Don't let other copycats see the joke."
Yuxiao took a step forward and said.
Yu Xiao presides over the selection every year, and Yu Xiao is used to seeing the fights between these clan leaders every year.
Regarding the words of the great elder of the Presbyterian Church, no matter how arrogant these top-ranked clan leaders are. But I dare not not listen. Then everyone bowed and took a step back.
Since Li Dawen, tribesmen from other villages have come to Yuling Mountain one after another. In one morning, eighty of the Jiuli tribe's eighty-one cottages came.
Eighty cottages with more than 8,000 people. Each village stood side by side, with a group of clan leaders standing at the front. For a time, the open space in front of Lingxiao Mountain was filled with people, and the momentum was quite grand.
"What's going on? Everyone is here, but Miluo Village is the only one left."
"Isn't it too much to make everyone wait like this for a small Miluo village?"
“…”
For a moment, the whispers of the clan leaders sounded. But these voices were full of displeasure.
Even when Li asked, the corners of Jingang and Kong Yu's mouths also raised in displeasure. Before Miluo Village, there were no strong men in the Earthly Immortal Realm, and the strength of the people in the village was not high.
Therefore, in the ranking of Miluo Village among the 81 cottages, it would be good if it can be ranked in the middle. Now in such a small village, the top four clan leaders have been waiting here all morning. How can anyone not be angry
"coming!"
While everyone was discussing, someone shouted. Immediately, a team of a hundred people was seen walking slowly from the jungle in the distance.
At this time, other cottages have arrived. So you can imagine which copycat you can come to at this time.
"Great Elder, I am late to Miluo Village, please forgive me!"
The first thing Menglin did when he came to people's eyes was to apologize to Yuxiao. Meng Lin and all the tribesmen stopped and bowed one after another.
It can be seen that everyone in Miluo Village, from the clan leader Meng Lin down to the ordinary clan members, are tired of life.
Menglin really couldn't tell the pain, after the other village chiefs received the letter. Immediately select tribesmen to set off to show respect for the Presbyterian Church.
But in order to wait for Li Mo, Meng Lin had to choose someone to wait all night and wait until the next day before setting off.
Along the way, Menglin knew that he was already late, so he led the villagers on their way as fast as they could. But in the end it was still a whole morning later than others.
The great elder Yu Xiao, standing in the center of the crowd, raised his head and didn't even mean to look at Meng Lin. Menglin has kept everyone waiting for so long, and Yuxiao also wants to cure Menglin.
As long as Yuxiao didn't speak, Menglin and the tribesmen in Miluo Village could not get up.
"Let me tell you, Brother Menglin. Look at you, do you look like you came back from begging for food? How did you end up like this?"
"Menglin, we haven't seen each other for more than fifty years, right? Your arrogance is really getting bigger and bigger."
“…”
For a moment, several clan leaders stood in front of a group of cottages. They all mocked Meng Lin, Li Wen and the other top clan leaders did not speak.
Given their status, they didn't even bother to ridicule Meng Lin. So those who are now taunting Meng Lin are the village chiefs who are ranked in the middle, similar to those of Miluo Village, and Gelong, the leader of Gordo Village.
At this moment, Gelong's face was still pale, even after nearly two months. But the internal injuries in Geron's body were still not much better.
When he thought of his internal injuries, Gelong looked at Menglin with resentment in his eyes.
As for the other copycat clan leaders, they are usually in a competitive relationship, so at this time, they will add insult to injury if they can.
Yuxiao didn't speak, and Menglin couldn't get up. So when he heard the cynicism of these people, Menglin was angry and clenched his fists in anger, but Menglin knew it. Once he stood up to refute, Yuxiao might blame the entire Miluo Village.
It will even involve Li Mo, and Yu Xiao can disqualify a copycat from participating in the election with just one sentence.
"enough."
Not wanting to waste time, Yu Xiao scolded the clan leaders. They can still be polite to Li Wendao, but of course Yu Xiao still scolds these lower-ranked clan leaders if he wants to.
"yes!"
Although these clan leaders looked arrogant and domineering in front of Meng Lin, in front of Yu Xiao, they were all very honest.
"Menglin, did you forget your roots when you entered the early stage of the Earthly Immortal Realm?"
Yuxiao Ao raised his head and asked condescendingly.
"He entered the fairyland?"
"Hiss..."
Upon hearing Yu Xiao's words, the expressions of the patriarchs who had previously mocked Meng Lin changed. They had only cared about mocking Meng Lin before, and didn't pay attention to exploring Meng Lin's cultivation level.
So these people still think that Menglin has the same level of cultivation in the Nascent Soul Realm as they do. Now Menglin has entered the Earthly Immortal Realm.
Even if it is only the early stage of the Earthly Immortal Realm, even if the cultivation level of the people in the Miluo Village has not improved yet. But the ranking of their Miluo Village has already entered the top twenty.
The higher the ranking, the smaller the annual offerings required. This shows that the more cultivation resources the cottage can leave behind.
So it won't take long, maybe Miluo Village will be able to leave those few cottages far behind.
