Chapter 32

Feng Ye is very agitated. After handing over some basic medical techniques to Feng Kui, Feng Ye began to ponder the Heavenly Dao. However, every time he calmed down, his primordial spirit would always feel a surge of restlessness.

The primordial spirit is warning! But Feng Ye couldn't figure out where the danger was coming from. Even with the help of the Taiji talisman, he couldn't calculate anything. At this moment, an argument came from outside the cave.

Feng Ye frowned, just as he was about to vent his frustration, someone came along. He walked over and saw Feng Kui and Feng Zhong, the two brothers, arguing.

"What are you two doing? Is it that your Uncle Yuan Kui has gone into seclusion, and you are rebelling now?"

"Teacher, my elder brother wants to move to the tribe, and I am trying to persuade him—"

"Teacher, I have made up my mind. The tribe needs me now, how can I ignore them for my own sake? Besides, the medical knowledge you taught me can be well practiced in the tribe."

"Even so, go ahead!" Feng Ye said indifferently. "Everyone has their own path. If you think this is your path, then just walk it. As your teacher, all I can do is help you up when you fall!"

Seeing Feng Ye agree, Feng Zhong became very anxious. "Teacher, why let my elder brother go like this? The human race is being invaded by the plague demons now!"

The plague demons' invasion startled Feng Ye. He calculated with his fingers, combining what Feng Zhong said, and finally understood what the primordial spirit's warning was about.

The Suiren tribe is currently suffering from an epidemic. But why would the primordial spirit warn him about this? Could this plague affect immortals as well?

Suppressing his doubts for the moment, Feng Ye looked at Feng Kui. "Are you still going to go?"

"The tribe is being invaded by the plague demons. Since I have the ability, I should go and help!"

"Even if it costs you your life, will you not regret it?"

Feng Kui hesitated for a moment. "I will not regret it!"

Feng Ye nodded in satisfaction. After all, Feng Kui is the reincarnation of the Suiren Emperor, who is always concerned about the human race. Fine, let him go. Moreover, if even I can't stay out of it, then this Suishan Huoyun Cave might not be safe either.

However, with his virtue, he shouldn't have any problems! Better safe than sorry. Thinking of this, Feng Ye bit his finger and drew a blood-colored talisman on Feng Kui's forehead. "You haven't yet condensed your life-bound true talisman, and it's unknown how much resistance you have to the plague demons. For safety, this talisman should protect you from the plague demons!"

But if it's a plague that even I can't handle, this talisman won't be of much use. However, to avoid discouraging Feng Kui, Feng Ye swallowed the second half of his words.

Watching Feng Kui leave the mountain, Feng Zhong worriedly said, "Teacher, the plague demons are dangerous. Why let my elder brother take this risk?"

"This is his destiny. If he wants to go, let him go. This might also be his opportunity! Don't worry about it. You go to the back mountain and watch over the Suiniao. It has a close relationship with Feng Kui, so don't let it go with him. Who knows if the plague demons can affect birds?"

Back in the cave, combining the information he just obtained, he activated the Taiji talisman and recalculated. Finally, he had some clues. It turns out this calamity is also related to Feng Ye.

Feng Ye originally thought that promoting medical knowledge in this era would be in line with the natural flow, ensuring the survival of the human race and aligning with the Heavenly Dao, thus earning merit. However, he overlooked one thing: human disasters.

Who would be the first to suffer from the rise of medical knowledge? Naturally, the deities who gain worship and faith from disease and death. They would not allow the prosperity of medical knowledge.

Death, the realm of the dead is just beginning to form, and a deity who fully controls the death domain has yet to be born. The most closely related to death and the underworld would be the Wu clan.

Xuanming controls the cold, which is inherently associated with the death domain, especially since winter is traditionally seen as the season with the highest mortality rate. Thus, it is said that Xuanming, the Wu ancestor, controls the death domain. After all, with his body covered in bones, it's hard to believe he has no connection to death.

Gonggong controls floods, and the ancient great flood destroyed the ancient civilization, making floods a symbol of death and destruction.

The third is Shebish, who controls plagues and has a particular affinity for death. Moreover, he controls diseases, making him a natural enemy of medical knowledge.

Therefore, even if the Wu clan is not in line with the Heavenly Dao, Shebish, as a deity, still has the basic ability to sense threats. The emergence of medical knowledge would naturally be sensed by him, and sending someone to investigate is possible.

Feng Ye considered this. If Shebish sends someone, it might not be a powerful individual, and he might not inform the other Wu ancestors. After all, this is his personal matter, and it's just a mental感应 (induction), which might not be very accurate. It could be a plot by Di Jun and others, so he wouldn't make a big deal out of it.

Moreover, based on Feng Ye's observations during his trip to the East Sea, the twelve Wu ancestors are not on good terms internally. They are only united against Di Jun's Heavenly Court. If the Wu clan were to conquer the Heavenly Court in the future, who would become the Heavenly Emperor would be a problem. Moreover, with Hou Tu transforming into the underworld, the Hou Tu clan is clearly not as influential as the other Wu ancestors.

Speaking of which, it's worth mentioning the structure of the Wu clan. Although they are led by the twelve Wu ancestors and fight against Di Jun's Heavenly Court, they have their own internal divisions.

First, in terms of combat, the five tribes of water, fire, wind, thunder, and metal are the most skilled in battle and form the backbone of the fight against Di Jun.

The tribe of Zhu Jiuyin controls time, observing the past and future, and is responsible for planning and strategy. The tribe of Di Jiang can traverse space, moving quickly and is responsible for gathering and transmitting information. Thus, the time and space tribes are responsible for overall strategy and planning, similar to a modern staff department.

As for the Hou Tu, Gou Mang, and Shebish tribes, they are responsible for logistics. The Hou Tu tribe is responsible for construction and defense, the Gou Mang tribe for food supply, and the Shebish tribe for witchcraft and poisons.

Finally, the Xuanming and Yuezi tribes are responsible for internal defense and law and order.

In other words, the Shebish tribe is responsible for the preparation of witchcraft and poisons, which are part of the logistics. This means they are not skilled in combat. Therefore, they usually have servants to protect them. However, the Shebish tribe has no subordinate races, so they use things like venomous insects, plague ghosts, and puppets.

Shebish is always reclusive and rarely contacts the other Wu ancestors. Unlike other Wu ancestors, he has no many subordinate tribes. He only has a direct lineage, and his clan is small and isolated. If he were to send someone to investigate, he probably wouldn't send a high-ranking individual, as it would be a long journey to the heart of the world, and Di Jun might detect and eliminate them.

In Feng Ye's view, the person sent would be cannon fodder, or perhaps a clone or puppet.

Well, Yuan Kui is a deity, and it would be better for him to investigate than for Feng Ye to do it himself. Thinking of this, Feng Ye went to the purification room and forced his way in.
