Chapter 1099 Lion Camel Dragon

This elderly man from the Qing tribe is the tribe's chief, named "Qingmu".

Beside Aoki were Qingrou and the hunting team members Qingyuan had just sent to deliver the message. He had obviously learned about Bai Pu's abilities and deeds from Qingrou and the others.

"Young traveler, thank you for your timely intervention in saving Qingyuan and his group."

Chief Aoki first expressed his gratitude, then hurriedly asked, "I heard from Aono that you can purify the berserk meat?"

"Chieftain, it's true! Look, this pile of meat that was originally intended to be buried in the ground, which was all ferocious meat, has now been purified into good meat by Brother Bai Pu!"

Qingyuan said excitedly.

Chief Aoki circled the pile of good meat twice, his chest heaving and his breathing becoming heavier; he was clearly very excited.

"But……"

Chief Aoki looked at Bai Pu, "Young man, could you explain your ability to purify this berserk flesh? Please don't misunderstand, I'm not spying on your secrets... I just want to know, is purifying the berserk flesh a heavy burden for you?"

Through his intuition, Bai Pu could clearly understand what the Qingmu clan chief meant.

Bai Pu's mind was racing.

If you go along with it and say "it's a heavy burden," you might be able to take advantage of the situation and gain some benefits.

But Bai Pu thought further ahead.

He frankly stated, "No, I'm happy to purify this meat; it's as easy for me as breathing."

It's not as simple as breathing; it's something Bai Pu could only dream of.

By absorbing the violent evolutionary factors, Bai Pu can increase the bonus of [Pureblood Defense].

"Good, that's great..." Chief Aoki breathed a sigh of relief. "If the purification ability is a burden, then we'd be embarrassed to let you keep purifying the berserk flesh."

Qingrou interjected, "Clan leader, do we no longer need to move away from Cuiling?"

As soon as he spoke, the other members of the Qing clan looked at Chief Qingmu with hopeful eyes.

Chief Qingmu sighed, "I understand what you mean. If possible, who would want to leave their homeland? Migrating westward is a long journey, requiring the abandonment of many elderly and weak members of the tribe. Even if we reach Lingxi and rebuild our territory, we will have to pay an unimaginable price..."

After a pause, Chief Aoki continued, "However, we have no choice but to migrate!"

"Why?"

Qingrou exclaimed, "With Bai Pu here, we can get enough food from the ferocious animals!"

"Bai Pu is not a member of the Qing clan; he will leave sooner or later!"

Chief Qingmu said solemnly, "Moreover, even if Bai Pu didn't leave, Cuiling would have long been uninhabitable. A huge shadow from the East Sea is already approaching Cuiling! It is an existence that our Qing clan cannot resist!"

As soon as Chief Qingmu uttered these words, Bai Pu quickly received a notification from the spirit world.

Main Quest: Great Crisis

[Mission Objective: Help the Qing Clan eliminate the threat to their survival]

[Task Difficulty: S]

[Task period: 30 days]

[Quest Rewards: +1500~5000 Qing Clan Reputation; 500~1500 Qing Clan Merit Points]

[Failure Penalty: 1000 Low-Grade Spirit Crystals Deducted] [Accept?]

Having triggered the main quest, Bai Pu immediately chose to accept it.

“Chief Aoki, I am a traveler who has lost my home. I have come from afar and need a place to stay. If the Aoki Clan accepts me, I am willing to join them.”

Chief Aoki readily agreed: "It is the Aoki clan's good fortune to have you join us."

[You have joined the faction: Green Ridge Clan.]

[Reputation with the Green Ridge Clan is now available. Your current reputation level is: Friendly.]

Bai Pu checked his reputation points. Probably because he helped the hunting team and purified the Berserker Meat, Bai Pu already had 2400/3000 Qing Clan reputation points, directly reaching the Friendly level.

"Clan Chief Aoki, may I ask what you mean by the 'great shadow over the East Sea' you mentioned?"

Bai Pu then asked.

Clearly, there are two paths to choose from for the main quest "helping the Qing tribe eliminate the threat to their survival".

The first path is to protect the Qing tribe's migration. Along the way, they will clear away monsters and demonic plants, cut through thorns and brambles, and reach the west of the Green Ridge. Then, they will choose a suitable place to live and breed, and re-establish their tribe's territory. During this process, they may encounter hostility from the tribes in the western part of the ridge.

The second path should be to resolve the "huge shadow over the East China Sea".

Chief Aoki revealed a hint of fear: "That was a huge, sky-covering monster. It came from the East Sea and was extremely ferocious... I suspect that it is the reason for the recent increase in raging beasts, and that it is the source of the raging pollution."

"Has the clan leader seen that great demon beast? How strong is it? How does it compare to this raging dragon rhinoceros?" Bai Pu asked immediately afterward.

“I’ve only seen it from afar. It’s a monster with huge fleshy wings and a thick mane like a lion on its neck. I call it ‘Lion Camel Dragon’. I don’t know how strong it is, but in terms of size alone, it’s at least twice the size of the Rampaging Dragon Rhinoceros. And I’ve never seen that kind of aura before. I felt fear when I saw it from afar.”

Chief Aoki sighed, "I've seen many monsters in my life, but that Lion Camel Dragon is definitely the strongest I've ever seen. Even if you put all the able-bodied men of my tribe together, they wouldn't be a match for it."

Bai Pu nodded: "Where was the last time you saw the Lion Camel Dragon?"

"What are you going to do?" Chief Aoki asked in return.

"I want to see it up close and experience its power."

Bai Pu said with a smile, "Don't worry about my safety, I have a unique escape ability."

"I believe you on this point. Without special abilities, it would be impossible to cross the mountains and come to Cuiling."

Chief Qingmu sighed, "However, Bai Pu, you should not take the risk. Our Qing clan's fighting strength is not enough to kill the Lion Camel Dragon."

"What if we combine the strength of the three clans of Cuiling?"

Bai Pu's vision was far superior to that of the Green Wood Clan Chief. "The Stone Clan excels in defense, the Black Bird Clan excels in aerial combat... plus the Green Clan's poison! Can the three clans, working together, kill the Lion Camel Dragon?"

Chief Aoki was stunned for a moment: "This, I don't know either."

Qingyuan said, "The Stone Clan and the Black Bird Clan have always been in conflict with us, so they won't help us."

All three tribes live in Cuiling, and given the scarcity of food, conflicts are inevitable.

Bai Pu shook his head and said, "This isn't helping the Qing Clan, it's helping themselves. If possible, the Shi Clan and the Xuan Niao Clan probably wouldn't want to migrate either."

As Chief Aoki just said, the migration will require abandoning a group of elderly and weak members of the clan, as well as relinquishing the clan's land to establish a new clan territory in Lingxi. The cost of this process is unimaginable.

Seeing that the Qing Clan members were somewhat interested, Bai Pu quickly added, "Could the Qing Clan send a messenger to tell the Shi Clan and the Xuan Niao Clan that the Qing Clan has a method to purify the berserk flesh, which can be shared with them, so that they can postpone their relocation and discuss ways to deal with the Lion Camel Dragon together?"
