It was the pressure that came from her bloodline and her soul. For a moment, when she saw Sang, Zi Ling felt like surrendering immediately. Fortunately, she was the head of a clan after all, so her mental strength was naturally not weak. Therefore, she quickly came to her senses and without hesitation, her hands were once again filled with deep purple magical light.

"Ah woo~~~"

After the transformation was completed, Sang, who used his true form for the first time, looked at his clothes with some curiosity. However, he was not satisfied with it. Instead, he frowned slightly as if something was missing. However, he soon raised his head and looked at Zi Ling in front of him with nonchalant attitude.

"..."

"?!"

When their eyes met, Zi Ling's expression suddenly changed the next second. Without thinking, she twisted her body and tried to dodge to the side.

However... it's too late!

“Puff~~~”

The sharp claws slashed her waist fiercely, and blood instantly splattered in all directions. Naturally, a few drops of blood also splashed on the figure that suddenly appeared behind her. However...

“Zizzizi~~~”

A sharp sound like metal corroding came from Sang's body. However, Sang just looked at the blood splashing on her body calmly. She saw that the blood did not penetrate into her clothes as it eroded her body, but instead began to slide down her skin little by little.

Finally, it dripped onto the ground as if it were real liquid.

It was at that moment that Zi Ling realized that she had completely lost this game!

87. Calculation

The reason why God is called God, apart from the concepts or rules that he represents, which are illusory in nature, the most important point is that God possesses great power that is beyond the reach of all living beings.

This kind of great power is undoubtedly something to be admired, shocked, and desired.

It is for this reason that living beings have the idea of ​​petitioning God, hoping to use the power of God to accomplish things that are beyond human reach.

The power displayed by Yu Huan is just the tip of the iceberg. It is true that dream summoning only uses the power of the "Heroic Spirit" residing in the job card, but no matter what, anyone who has been able to become a "Heroic Spirit" in the past is also a famous god in history.

Of course, this god is not from this world.

But precisely because it existed, Yu Huan's words naturally did not contain any deception.

It was precisely because they heard this from Yu Huan's tone that the three people in front of them undoubtedly confirmed Yu Huan's identity as a messenger of God at this moment, as he was able to borrow the power of "God".

After confirming this, it seemed that they understood at this moment the reason why the prophet was so respectful and yielding to Yu Huan. Although the three of them were still determined to fight against Yu Huan, the hostility they had originally harbored had disappeared.

The Orcs are a race with faith, and this race's faith is undoubtedly the existence of a 'prophet' who can predict the future.

From ancient times to the present, all prophets who have obtained such special powers have their own "god" that they admire. Although no prophet has ever seen the other party's appearance, the confident expressions on their faces every time they predict the future are enough to show that the other party is not some randomly made-up god, but a real existence.

Every prophet worships this god as the highest object of admiration for the orcs, and the orcs who have received his favor naturally regard him as their only god to believe in.

No one knows what this god looks like, not even the prophet himself, but its existence can be confirmed.

Yu Huan's arrival is equivalent to bringing such an opportunity. For a group that already believes in gods, the importance of the arrival of a "messenger of God" is naturally self-evident. But precisely because of this, out of admiration for gods, some people will naturally become curious and suspicious about the identity of the messenger of God.

The five guardian races are not only the guardians of the prophet, but also the guardians of the orcs. They are naturally excited and have longing for Yu Huan, the "messenger of God", but they also have doubts.

This doubt was very simple. It was not a doubt about God, but a suspicion that someone might use the name of "God" to defraud the Orcs.

This kind of thing actually happened in the Demon Realm in the past. The magicians in the Mage Tower... were best at playing tricks.

To put it bluntly, if the initial suspicion towards Yu Huan was simply whether he was a messenger of God and the distrust of humans, then after Yu Huan fully demonstrated his strength, it was obvious that not many people in the Orc Tribe cared about him anymore.

Even if you're human, so what? As long as you have the strength to defeat the orcs fairly, you can still gain their respect. The law of the jungle is the most basic law and rule for being a beast.

As for being a "messenger of God", in addition to the fact that he was first recognized by the most noble prophet, the most important thing is that at this moment, when Yu Huan showed the power of "inviting God", he was undoubtedly recognized by the three patriarchs who protected the race at the same time.

In this way, it was equivalent to confirming Yu Huan's true identity as a divine messenger. Even if the three of them came with the intention of winning or losing, they naturally no longer harbored any hostility towards Yu Huan. Even the original thoughts of wanting to teach him a lesson or even kill him disappeared at this moment. Instead, if there was only one reason left to fight, it was:

"It is natural for prophets and saints throughout the ages to serve the gods, but the gods do not come to us at random. So since you are the messenger of the gods, there is nothing wrong with us saints serving as attendants."

Bai Quan suddenly said this, which made Yu Huan raise an eyebrow. For a moment, he didn't know what he wanted to express. According to this statement, after acknowledging his identity as a messenger of God, these childhood sweethearts no longer cared about Hu Churou being his 'attendant', right?

Thinking so in his mind, Li Shan and Ding Hua on the other side obviously thought that Bai Quan meant the same thing, and they both looked at him at the same time.

"Baiquan, you..."

Ding Hua, who was about to open her mouth to speak, was looked down at by Bai Quan. Having known each other for so many years, and most importantly, they had the same thoughts, she naturally saw the meaning in Bai Quan's eyes. She slowly closed her mouth and did not say anything more.

Baiquan... must have his own ideas.

"Then what? What do you want to express?"

If you don't understand the other party's purpose, just ask directly. Yu Huan asked directly at that moment.

"It's only natural for the Saint to serve the Divine Envoy. As the patriarch of the White Lion Clan, one of the five guardian clans, I have no complaints and I have no right to complain to the Divine Envoy or even demand the Saint's return!"

Yu Huan understood the meaning of this sentence. It directly acknowledged Yu Huan's identity as a divine messenger, and also agreed that it was natural for Hu Churou, as one of the three holy ladies, to follow Yu Huan.

but……

"But as a brother who grew up with a girl named Hu Churou and treated each other like siblings, I cannot agree with you giving your sister away as a subordinate just for this reason!"

There was a firm tone in the calm words. It sounded contradictory, but Yu Huan understood it.

"In other words, now that you're attacking me, you're no longer doing it as the patriarch of one of the five major clans, but simply as a 'brother' seeking to get your family back?"

Brother, I can clearly see your feelings for Hu Churou even without using my supernatural powers, so can't you just admit it openly?

With a hint of contempt in his eyes, Yu Huan asked this question with certainty. Bai Quan nodded without hesitation. Li Shan, one of the two people beside him, also nodded in the same way. At the same time, Ding Hua on the side gave a different opinion at this moment:

"Not a brother... not a sister, but a partner. How could I possibly hand over my Chu Rou to anyone else?"

Great, finally someone is here to honestly express their feelings, but unfortunately it's a girl...

Wait, it seems like I’m also a lesbian?

Oh, that's okay, carry on!

"I think I understand what you mean..."

Looking at the three people in front of him who were still eager to fight, Yu Fantasy thought for a moment before speaking:

"What you mean is that from now on, the battle between us is no longer a business matter, but a personal grudge. You are simply challenging me, your 'master', in order to regain ownership of my Chu Rou, right?"

In the smiling words, whether it was intentional or not, the words "my Chu Rou" and "master" immediately made the faces of the three people in front of him slightly darken. At that moment, Bai Quan and others nodded without thinking:

"Yes."

"Then why would I fight with you guys?"

However, after hearing what they said, Yu Huan waved his hand without thinking and suddenly said:

"I agreed to spar with you Orcs in order to spread faith among them. Now, apart from your five major tribes, there's basically no one else in the Orc tribe who can stand up to us. This means I have a sure win in this 'business'."

Then the problem is coming...

"Why would I agree to a personal vendetta under these circumstances? Putting aside the question of winning or losing, I can't agree to this just because it would cost my Chu Rou her life!"

There was an obvious hint of resistance in her smiling words. Come to think of it, this was understandable. After all, such a personal grudge would obviously not benefit Yu Huan at all. If she agreed, she would obviously be the one who suffered the loss regardless of winning or losing.

"Your Excellency, God's Envoy, don't worry about this!"

However, as if he had already guessed Yu Huan's answer, Bai Quan immediately gave another answer:

"I, Baiquan, as the leader of the White Lion Clan, swear to you once again that if I lose this battle, then all of my White Lion Clan members, currently numbering over 1,720, will offer their most loyal faith to you (the God), and this faith will continue for generations to come, until death!"

The decisive words undoubtedly made Li Shan and Ding Hua's expressions change slightly at the same time. They never expected that in order to get Yu Huan to agree, he would actually make such a promise directly. This was equivalent to using the entire White Lion Clan as a bet. Such behavior was obviously enough for the White Lion Clan to directly impeach him as the patriarch.

"Baiquan, you're crazy!"

"Baiquan, this promise... is broken!"

Dinghua and Lishan's voices sounded from both sides at the same time, obviously trying to dissuade Baiquan from retracting this idea.

The current situation clearly shows that the three of them are no match for Yu Huan. That is to say, even if Yu Huan agreed to fight, the final victory or defeat would not be on their side. Therefore, Bai Quan's action was obviously not an adventure, but a death wish!

Gambling the entire race for a woman is an extremely reckless act no matter how you look at it. However, Baiquan undoubtedly did so at this moment. As the clan leader, is he really doing it only for his own selfish reasons?

No, it’s not...at least that’s not the case in Yuhuan’s opinion.

"Your idea... is quite good!"

88. Make your choice!

"Your idea... is quite good!"

No one expected Bai Quan to have the courage to make such a decision. Perhaps in the eyes of others, such a decision of exchanging one's own race for a woman, when one might not even win, is definitely a manifestation of so-called "incompetence". However, Yu Huan understood the meaning of it in an instant. Not only did he not express disgust towards it, but there was a hint of admiration in his eyes when he looked at Bai Quan.

why?

It's very simple. What is the key to the Orcs' greatest hostility towards Yu Huan now?

It was simply because Hu Churou, as a saint and even the next prophet, recognized herself as her master... and although her master proclaimed herself as a messenger of God, she had no proof of it.

On this basis, if Yu Huan is confirmed to be a messenger of God, or even a god, then this concern will naturally no longer exist. At that time, out of years of admiration for the gods, the entire orc tribe will naturally believe in Yu Huan as a god and willingly dedicate their faith to him.

At that time, Hu Churou, as a prophet, would naturally be the first one to bear the brunt, so even calling her "master" would be a matter of course, and the entire orc tribe would no longer be able to say a word of objection.

This is an established fact, but the self-deceiving orcs have not yet understood this point... Or perhaps these so-called brothers and sisters or suitors of Hu Churou ignored this point out of jealousy, and therefore challenged her in a fit of rage.

However, Bai Quan was one of the wise ones. He saw clearly the interests involved and knew that if he won today's battle, he would be able to take Hu Churou away, which was a good thing. However, if he lost, it would be equivalent to indirectly acknowledging Yu Huan's identity as the Divine Envoy.

By then, even if they don't need to make a statement, the fact that the god they have worshipped for thousands of years has sent a messenger will be known to the entire orc tribe. Naturally, the believers will be unstoppable like a spring.

Rather than letting the tribesmen secretly or individually develop their own beliefs at that time, which would cause problems with the "royal power" because of theocracy, it would be better to make a rule with Yuhuan now. If he loses, he will openly believe in Yuhuan with his own race. This itself will not cause any loss to him or even to the White Lion Clan.

And if he wins by chance, he can also let the messenger of God "let go" of Hu Churou, which is a truly beneficial choice with no harm.

With this in mind, Baiquan challenged Yuhuan. He wasn't so conceited as to believe that Yuhuan, a divine messenger, wouldn't see through such a trick. But even if he did, what would it matter? To a god, wasn't human wisdom... something that easily piqued their interest?

and so……

"I accept your challenge!"

With a smile on his face, he agreed to the other party's request without hesitation. This was not because the other party's provocation was successful, but as Baiquan guessed, as a "god", Yu Huan recognized the other party's "intelligence" in challenging him, and therefore responded to the other party's intellect and accepted this challenge:

"Don't say I'm bullying you. Now I'll give you a chance to defeat me!"

Since he had accepted the challenge, it was obviously meaningless to win directly. Therefore, Yu Huan casually took out seven job cards from his card pack and placed them with his back to the opponent before speaking:

"The seven job cards represent the power of seven 'Heroic Spirits'. I can use their powers at will, but now... I'm giving you the chance to choose one!"

Of course, that wasn't meant to be a gift to the other person, but...

"Seven job cards, seven different jobs. You choose one, and I'll use it. I promise you that besides the ability of this job card, I won't use any other 'divine power' or 'magic power'... I guarantee this in the name of my god, Yu Huan!"

Well, she is just Yu Huan's clone, and the real Yu Huan is still in the goddess ruins, so although what she said has no binding force, there is nothing wrong with it.

"..."

Yu Huan's words instantly silenced Bai Quan. This was undoubtedly Yu Huan's biggest concession yet. Furthermore, if he only used a single divine power, he might still have a chance of winning. So, after hesitating for a moment, just as Bai Quan was about to agree...

"Lord Divine Envoy, my ant tribe also wishes to join this gamble. I wonder if you... would mind adding one more person?"

Before Baiquan could speak, Lishan's low voice suddenly rang out beside him. The sudden voice startled Baiquan slightly. When he turned his head to look at the other party, Lishan spoke in a calm tone:

"You're not the only one who would give everything for her, and...after knowing each other for so long, I believe you're not the kind of person who would do anything for a personal relationship!"

His calm tone fully expressed his trust in his close friend. Although he did not understand the meaning of Baiquan's challenge, this obviously did not hinder Lishan's trust in Baiquan.

Bai Quan was slightly taken aback by this. At this time, the top painter on the side also spoke:

"That's right, you've taken all the limelight. Do you really think you can give everything for her? Even I, the clan leader, can do that!"

There was a hint of tsundere in his unhappy voice, and when he looked up at Yu Huan, he still did not hide his hostility and said:

"So add me in. You're a messenger of God after all, a subordinate of God. You shouldn't mind a small matter like three against one, right?"

The voice was not very clever, with a hint of provocation, but it also contained the girl's little thoughts at the moment. At the moment, Yu Huan could not express any other emotion except laughing at the other party's reaction.

"you……"

At the same time, after hearing Ding Hua's words, Bai Quan immediately looked at the two of them. From their eyes, Bai Quan could see that it was not a reckless joke to use his own race as a bet towards the newcomer, but a real thought and certainty that Bai Quan must have a purpose in doing so.

"..."

Bai Quan obviously had nothing to say at the moment. After a moment of silence, he nodded heavily.

"Okay, let's... bring Chu Rou back together!"

The firm tone of the words immediately made the two people around him smile. Although it was inappropriate at this time, Yu Huan's voice still intervened cautiously:

"Well... excuse me for interrupting you guys. Before you make a decision on this kind of thing, I think you should...consult with me, the person involved?"

He was talking about a one-on-one fight, and now he's talking about three against one or something, and he's still making passionate speeches like a 'protagonist'. Does he really take her, the messenger of God, seriously?
