Huanhuan called out to Little Purple.
Dozens of butterfly flowers gathered at her feet and sent her steadily to the ground.
She bent down and took out the broken blade from the hole.
"First Elder, this is yours. Take it back."
The first elder did not take the blade. Instead, he turned to look at the second elder, who was standing not far away. The bone knife was given to him by the second elder. The second elder must know that the divine artifact was fake. The second elder was in cahoots with Lin Huanhuan!
"You traitor!"
The second elder was so frightened by his murderous gaze that his heart trembled.
As the second elder had followed the first elder for many years, he knew the first elder's personality very well. Now that the first elder had determined that he was a traitor, he would definitely think of ways to kill him in the future.
If he wanted to protect himself, he had to find another master.
As for who he should turn to…
He had two puppet worms in his body, and his life was in Lin Huanhuan's hands.
Even if it was just for the sake of his life, he could only submit to her.
Many thoughts raced through his mind.
But it was only a blink of an eye before he made his decision.
The second elder took two steps to the side and distanced himself from the elders beside him. He argued, "You clearly got someone to forge that bone knife. What does it have to do with me? You're the one who's ambitious and wants to inherit the position of prophet. You're the real traitor!"
Everyone looked stunned.
The first elder's face turned from white to black.
If not for the fact that there were many people watching, he would have rushed forward and torn apart the traitor who was spouting nonsense!
The second elder made up his mind to seize this opportunity to prove his allegiance, so he spoke more and more enthusiastically.
"You gave me a pill previously and asked me to secretly put it in Huanhuan's food when she wasn't looking. I couldn't bear to hurt the kind-hearted Huanhuan, so I took the initiative to surrender to her and tell her the truth. Not only did the kind-hearted Huanhuan let me live, but she also reminded me not to collude with you again. Otherwise, I would definitely be harmed by you. Huanhuan is really the kindest female I've ever seen. I must have been blind to want to hurt her!"
He wiped his tears as he spoke. His acting was on point.
Huanhuan couldn't help but secretly applaud him.
'Second Elder, I didn't expect you to be a capable actor!'
The first elder was so angry that his face turned green again.
"Y-You're talking nonsense! When did I ask you to drug Lin Huanhuan? Show me the evidence!"
The second elder turned to look at Huanhuan and begged while crying, "Lady Huanhuan can testify for me!"
Everyone's gazes focused on Huanhuan again.
Huanhuan coughed lightly. "Most of what the second elder said is true. The first elder did ask him to drug me previously. I've even seen that pill with my own eyes. It contains the egg of a puppet worm. After a person eats it, they'll be parasitized by the puppet worm and become a puppet under its master's control."
The first elder cried out, "You're talking nonsense! This is all slander! I didn't do it!"
pαndα`noνɐ1~сoМ Huanhuan stopped arguing with him and turned to look at Leng Xiao. "Take him away and lock him up. After the ceremony ends, interrogate him properly."
"Alright!"
Leng Xiao was about to arrest them when the first elder screamed, "I'm the first elder. What right do you have to arrest me?!"
Huanhuan put her hands in her sleeves and said calmly, "I'm the successor of the prophet and have the divine artifact given to me by the prophet. I have the right to deal with everything in the 10,000 Beast Temple, including your Elders' Association."
"That divine artifact of yours is fake!"
"If my divine artifact is fake, how did I open the altar?"
"Y-You must have played some tricks! Don't fall for her tricks…"
Before the first elder could finish, he was knocked unconscious by Leng Xiao.
Leng Xiao personally tied him up, threw him aside, and handed him to Shuang Jing.
The remaining members of the Elders' Association wanted to stand up for the first elder, but when they saw that the first elder had been knocked unconscious and tied up, they were immediately too frightened to speak. They were afraid that they would be knocked unconscious and tied up too.
Not only the Elders' Association but the others present were also shocked by Huanhuan's swiftness.
They did not expect this delicate and small female to be so ruthless. She did not give the first elder any face and arrested him just like that.
Huanhuan did not want to comfort everyone's frightened hearts. She brought the topic back to business.
"The 10,000 Beast Ceremony begins now!"
Everyone held their breaths, not daring to make another sound. They quietly watched the little female on the stage.
When everyone saw Huanhuan kneeling in front of the statue, they quickly knelt down too.
Huanhuan knelt on the ground and pressed her palms together. She looked at the tall and dignified statue in front of her with an extremely pious expression.
But inside, she was roaring—
Damn it! Due to the fright from falling off the cliff just now, she had forgotten the contents of the sheepskin book!
What should he do next?
What should she say?
Oh my God!
If she went to Jian Yi now to ask for the sheepskin book, would she be chased down the mountain by everyone?
Huanhuan lowered her body and pressed her forehead to the ground.
Everyone below the platform copied her and pressed their foreheads to the ground.
It was so quiet that one could hear the sounds of breathing.
Huanhuan wanted to cry. 'Yin Ji, I've let you down! I'm embarrassing you!'
At the critical moment, Little Brat reminded her.
"If you really don't remember, just dance."
What dance would she dance?
There was only the Dance of the Gods.
Huanhuan took out the Prediction Mask and put it on her face before standing up calmly.
Everyone below the platform stood up with her.
Huanhuan took a deep breath and exhaled gently.
When her body relaxed, she raised her arms and began to dance.
Her skirt swayed as she danced. Her white jade-like bare feet stepped on the ground, and the black crystal anklets made a crisp collision sound when they touched the ground.
The lotus bloomed with pale pink layers of petals, and the butterfly flowers danced around her.
Her snow-white mask refracted a mysterious light in the sun.
This was the Dance of the Gods.
A sacrificial dance that could summon gods.
Everyone widened their eyes and stared at the female on the stage without blinking.
As if they had seen a goddess, reverence appeared in their hearts.
The clouds in the sky rolled, and countless pale golden spots of light flew out of the statue and sprinkled on the altar.
With Huanhuan as the center, grass spread in all directions, and hundreds of flowers bloomed.
This was a miracle!
No one dared to make a sound as they were afraid of disturbing the goddess' dance. They could only shout in their hearts and involuntarily kneel down again.
There were even tears of excitement.
They had participated in more than one ceremony.
But this was the first time they had seen such a beautiful miracle.
Huanhuan was really a goddess sent by the heavens to protect them!
