Chapter 781 The Passionate Scorpion Wizard and the Temptation of the Little Pill
The orc who came to report was one of the orc warriors from the Poison Scorpion tribe who had been enslaved by Witch Moon.
He naturally had a deep impression of that smiling, terrifying little female.
The man, who had been leisurely inspecting the tribe, turned pale the moment he saw Wu Yue's familiar little face.
Howling, it took off running towards its captain's tent.
Upon hearing his subordinate's report, Du Huo's face paled, and his pupils dilated slightly.
He heard his own trembling voice, almost splitting his body: "Are you sure you didn't see wrong?"
The orc wiped his face: "Captain, that face of mine..."
Before he could finish speaking, a clear, cheerful voice boomed in their ears: "What a coincidence, I didn't expect to run into an acquaintance as soon as I arrived at the Crimson Flame Plains."
The two orcs froze, staring blankly at the direction from which the sound came.
Oh, it's a familiar voice.
Oh, it's that familiar smile.
Oh, it's that familiar, dreadful little female witch.
"Ha...haha, what a coincidence! Why are you out at this time of day, Wu? It's so cold in the middle of winter."
Poisonfire greeted him with an awkward laugh.
Wu Yue smiled at him and said, "Yes, it's so cold in the middle of winter. Won't you invite me into the tent to sit down?"
Poisonfire inwardly grumbled, but his actions were quite obedient as he led the terrifying little female witch back to his warm tent.
Seeing their nervous expressions, Wu Yue said with a smile, "I came here today to request an audience with your tribe's shaman. Our tribe has many precious items that we would like to discuss with your tribe's shaman."
Upon hearing this, Poison Fire was somewhat skeptical.
What valuable items could be found in that remote corner of the base forest?
But faced with this seemingly smiling but actually tormenting little female witch, he still timidly agreed.
Within the territory of the Poison Scorpion Tribe, the Poison Scorpion Wizard lazily nestled on a thick animal hide mat, his long, thin fingers toying with a small, plump, white Gu worm.
Winter was excessively boring, and there were no enemies to provide nourishment for his Gu worms.
"My lord wizard, Poisonfire has returned. He says he has something very important to report."
The orc warriors guarding outside reported respectfully.
The scorpion wizard raised an eyebrow slightly: "Oh? Let him in."
In the long winter, could it be that some inconsiderate creature has come to bring food to his little darling?
Poison Fire cautiously crept into his wizard's residence and recounted how Wu Yue and the other person had come to visit and wanted to make a deal with his wizard.
Upon hearing the name of the Forest Witch Moon at the base, the Poison Scorpion Wizard suddenly sat up straight.
Those usually gloomy eyes were now shining with an incredibly bright light.
"Is Wu Yue still in the tent you stayed in during your patrol?"
Shocked by his wizard's appearance, Poisonfire nodded shakily: "Yes, she said she's waiting for your news there."
"Someone! Bring me my animal hide."
Upon hearing this, the Poison Scorpion Wizard immediately stood up, took the animal skin handed to him by the orc, wrapped it around his body, and walked outside.
Du Huo, feeling dizzy, followed behind his wizard, watching helplessly as he led a squad of orc warriors past him in a grand procession toward the patrol tents on the edge of the territory.
Who is he? Where is he? What is he doing?
Although I was completely confused, my legs still moved obediently to keep up with the departing group.
Wu Yue, who had just finished a hot meal of barbecue in the patrol tent, felt the ground beneath her feet tremble slightly, and the snow on the branches not far away was falling down in a flurry.
"somebody is coming?"
Yuan Lang relaxed his brows and looked into the snow-covered plain not far away: "Hmm, it should be the orc team from the Poison Scorpion Tribe."
A moment later, a group of strong orc warriors escorted a lean, human male to the tent.
This must be the shaman of the Scorpion Tribe.
For some reason, Wu Yue always felt that the wizard's gaze was particularly intense when he looked at her.
"Respected Wizard Moon, it's been a long time. Your strength has surpassed mine by a great deal."
The moment he saw Wu Yue, the Poison Scorpion Wizard's originally bright eyes became even more intense.
He was right; this seemingly skinny little female wizard had a powerful tribe backing her.
Otherwise, how could a little shaman from a small, impoverished tribe become a shaman stronger than herself in such a short time?
With warm smiles on their faces, the two stepped into the cozy animal skin tent.
Upon learning of Wu Yue's purpose, the Poison Scorpion Wizard enthusiastically expressed his willingness to trade with the Snow Tiger Tribe.
They are willing to send orc warriors to spread the word about the Snow Tiger Tribe's trading caravan after winter ends.
The Poison Scorpion Wizard invited Wu Yue to visit the tribe's settlement.
Wu Yue smiled and declined, "I haven't been back for a long time and I miss my tribesmen very much, so I won't delay you."
With that, she smiled and took out a magic pill made by kneading flour several times from a small pouch beside her.
A look of pain crossed her fair, delicate face: "This is a pill I finally obtained that can enhance my witchcraft."
Wizard, your support for our Snow Tiger Tribe's trade makes you a friend of mine, Wuyue.
Please accept this precious pill; I hope you won't find it unsuitable.
The scorpion wizard stared with fervor at the dark pill between the fair fingers.
He carefully took out a small piece of clean, white animal hide from his pocket and, without any hesitation, gestured for Wu Yue to place the pill on it.
"Don't worry, Wizard Moon. In the Crimson Flame Plains, anyone who dares to have any disloyalty to the Snow Tiger Tribe's people and traded goods will be dealt with swiftly by my Poison Scorpion Tribe."
After saying that, he saw that Wu Yue had no intention of returning to the tribe's settlement with him.
After saying goodbye, he hurriedly headed towards the tribe, escorted by many orc warriors.
The pure magical energy emanating from the small, dark pill in his arms constantly stirred his emotions.
If it weren't for the safety concerns about taking it outside, he would have swallowed it the moment he got his hands on it.
He thought that his stagnant magical power, which had been declining for many years, was about to have a new breakthrough.
"hey-hey..."
Even the gloomy, venomous wizard couldn't help but chuckle.
Upon hearing this, the orc warriors guarding the area almost forgot that they were still in beast form and couldn't resist raising their claws to scratch their ears.
They must have eaten poisonous wild vegetables for breakfast, and then they heard their own wizard laughing?
After watching the Poison Scorpion Wizard and his group leave, Wu Yue smiled and left some food for Poison Fire and the others before riding away on Ta Yun with Yuan Lang.
Only after the two figures disappeared into the vast snowfield did Poison Fire finally let out a big sigh of relief.
"I wonder if it's snowing in the boundless desert deep within the Crimson Flame Plains?"
Yuan Lang chuckled and patted her head, saying, "No rush. Let's stay here for a few days. The pheasants you like are almost gone."
Today's update is here. Thank you to everyone who still remembers YiYi. More updates tomorrow. Looking forward to your support.
