Hand in Hand, Embracing, the Great War Erupts

Houtu smiled and said, "If it's just about preventing the Great River from overflowing, that's not a problem. We just need to use our supernatural powers to raise the ground where the tribe is located."

Although Wu Chu's worries seemed unnecessary to her, this affection made her feel involuntarily happy.

Although Houtu said that, Wu Chu still took out a ball of light from his sleeve and handed it over, saying, "This Little Enlightenment Tea Tree is my Companion Spirit Root. It has the quality of a superior Innate level and contains a protective array. Take it back and plant it in your backyard so that it can protect the tribe with the array."

Houtu watched him silently, without taking the Spirit Root.

Wu Chu reached out and took her hand, placing the ball of light in it. He said, "Although even a top-grade Innate Spirit Root's Guardian Formation can't withstand the attack of the Daluo Realm expert, it can still hold back the flood, freeing you up to do other things."

Although Houtu is not the owner of this Spirit Root, she can still borrow some of the power of the Guardian Formation by negotiating with Spirit Root.

Houtu silently looked at the Spirit Root inside the sphere of light, then glanced at Wu Chu.

Wu Chu didn't let go, silently holding her soft, delicate hand. He continued, feeling the smoothness and warmth of her skin, "Although this conflict between the Dragon Clan and the Qilin Clan is just a test, once the battle begins, no one knows what the outcome will be. And no one can be sure whether this test will escalate into a full-scale war. Although the possibility is low, we must prepare. If a full-scale war breaks out, how can your small tribe by the Great River survive?"

Houtu nodded slightly, understanding what Wu Chu were worried about.

She simply hadn't thought about it that thoroughly.

"Given these extraordinary times, I won't keep you any longer. I'll see you out!"

As Wu Chu spoke, he took Houtu Tu's hand and, using the power of the Mountain Protection Array, a purple halo enveloped them. In a flash, they arrived at the edge of the formation.

"Sister, please take care! Don't worry about Purple Jade Mountain, we're protected by Guardian Formation! Besides, we have an avatar of that senior at home. If they really want to take advantage of the chaos to attack me, I won't promise not to use that senior's avatar first!"

Miss Houtu nodded and said, "Take care too!"

As she spoke, she looked down at the hand that Wu Chu was still holding.

Wu Chu pretended not to see, and casually opened his arms to hug her, saying, "Take care. As long as it doesn't affect the tribe, let them fight to the death, but don't get involved! I'm worried Yinglong old dragon Gengchen might deliberately have his aquatic tribes lead the enemy to your tribe, taking the opportunity to cause trouble and drag you into the mess."

Miss Houtu patted Wu Chu on the back and smiled, "Got it!"

The two waved goodbye reluctantly, and only Houtu could no longer be seen did Wu Chu, with his hands behind his back, humming a song and looking quite cheerful, slowly float into the Guardian Formation.

A probing war broke out between the two races a few days later.

Although the Purple Jade Mountain region is vast, stretching hundreds of thousands of miles in all directions, the roars of dragons and beasts echoing in the sky still reached their ears.

Wu Chu and the other little ones, including Little Moon Spirit, sat in the pavilion. It was as if a water curtain was hanging in the pavilion. In front of the water curtain, Bi Fang Bird Bi Huo shrank its body and, along with the Little Deer Cub Yoyo and the Big Cat Bai Jun, obediently lay on the ground watching.

Inside the water curtain, a scene of flooding Jinshan Temple was unfolding.

The location is in the Houtu Tribe.

Just as Wu Chu had guessed, after the war began, the wide Great River began to overflow, creating towering waves that submerged both banks.

The colossal beasts soared through the sky, unleashing their supernatural powers and crashing into the Great River. In the Great River, countless aquatic creatures also used their supernatural powers, stirring up giant waves to meet the spells and even bombard the colossal beasts.

Some of the giant beasts seemed to disdain using their supernatural powers and charged directly into the Great River, where they fought with the aquatic creatures. In the blink of an eye, the turbid torrent turned crimson, and countless fish carcasses floated to the surface.

In such a situation, where is there any peace?

As a result, the floodwaters spread to both banks, and the Houtu Tribe, located on the banks of the Great River, although situated on a cliff thousands of feet high, could not escape being swallowed up by the enormous waves.

Inside the water curtain, Miss Houtu used the technique of "Heaven and Earth Manifestation," instantly raising her figure by tens of thousands of feet, leaving the little ones in front of the water curtain in awe.

What stunned them even more was that Houtu used her supernatural powers to raise the land where the tribe was located, supporting the tribe like a Heaven Pillar, and rapidly ascending into the sky, preventing it from being swept away by the flood.

Within the tribe, a green Guardian Formation spread out, shielding the swaying tribe at the center of the Heaven Pillar and protecting the floodwaters from their impact.

Wow! I never knew Sister Houtu was so amazing!

Some of the Little Flower Fairies were seeing Miss Houtu use her supernatural powers for the first time, and they all gasped in amazement, their mouths agape, their faces filled with disbelief.

"A Chu, if the floodwaters rise, will they reach our area?"

Little Moon Spirit asked with some concern.

Within the curtain of water, the towering mountains and valleys on both sides were submerged. The once towering peaks now looked like isolated islands in the sea. Countless creatures fled. Those that flew in the sky fared somewhat better, but what could those that ran on the ground do against the torrent?

The scenes that came into view looked like apocalyptic landscapes.

This is merely a probing battle between the Dragon Clan and the Qilin Clan. What would it be like if the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin Clan Three Clans were to engage in a full-scale war in the future?

Imagine the future Witch-Demon War, with the Heaven Pillar collapsing and the Celestial River pouring into the Primordial World... and in the even more distant future, the war Sage, shattering the Primordial World...

Wu Chu dared not imagine what Purple Jade Mountain would look like then.

"Don't worry! Our Purple Jade Mountain is protected by Guardian Formation!" Wu Chu said.

At this moment, within the water curtain, Miss Houtu shrank in size and appeared above the tribe's Guardian Formation, standing with her hands behind her back, suspended in mid-air, her sash and cascading black hair fluttering in the wind—the very Celestial Silkworm Silk Ribbon that Wu Chu had given her.

At this moment, within the water curtain, a figure was blasted out of the Great River and flew backwards towards the direction of the Houtu Tribe. Another figure rushed out of the water, giving chase, roaring as it unleashed its magical light without mercy.

Along with the light of the magic spell came the light of a Spirit Treasure.

When...

The two Spirit Treasure collided in mid-air, but the other one was pulled along and flew towards the direction of the Houtu Tribe, about to crash into the Heaven Pillar supporting the tribe.

Upon seeing this, Wu Chu couldn't help but sigh inwardly: Yinglong, that old scoundrel, truly has no good intentions!
