The Wing King looked at Xuan Ye’s confident face, hesitated for a long mont, then sighed deeply and said, "Well then, well then. The Dark Demon Clan and the Half-beast Clan have always been the biggest threats to our Winged Tribe. Since the Holy Church is determined to eradicate them, we should also contribute. Without their threat, it will only benefit our Winged Tribe. So, I’ve decided to personally lead two elder-level Wingn, along with a hundred Blue Feather Wingn and five hundred Red Feather Wingn to join you. This is already the strongest force our Winged Tribe can offer. Let us contribute our part for the peace of the continent."
Xuan Ye was overjoyed beyond expectation. With the help of these Wingn, not only would the shortcomings of the Holy Church due to unfamiliar terrain be circumvented, but their strength would also be significantly boosted. Now he was even more confident about dealing with the Dark Demon Clan. Excited, he reached out his right hand to the Wing King and said, "If that’s the case, then I thank His Majesty the Wing King. If this operation succeeds, the Holy Church will forever rember the friend that is the Winged Tribe." The Wing King extended his own strong right hand to shake Xuan Ye’s, and said with a bitter smile, "This is also for the sake of our Winged Tribe. Eliminating two nearby adversaries will allow us to live more peacefully. I believe that with our cooperation, both the Half-beasts and the Dark Witches will be unable to resist. So, Your Grace, you go back first. At dawn tomorrow, I will send soone to pick you up from here, and then we will head to the Half-beast Clan’s territory together. With the Winged Tribe’s scouts, any ambush will beco ineffective, and we must eradicate them with the swiftness of thunder." Saying this, a chilling glint flashed in the Wing King’s eyes. Xuan Ye felt a shiver in his heart and thought to himself that the Wing King seed even more bloodthirsty than himself! It seed he was not simple at all. But since both parties were using each other for now, there shouldn’t be any issues. With this in mind, he smiled and said, "If that’s so, then it’s settled. I won’t disturb your rest. I’ll wait for your ssage early tomorrow."
The Wing King nodded and said, "I need to arrange so things for tomorrow’s activities, so I will not see you out. Blue Falcon, please escort His Grace back."
"Yes, my King." A Blue Feather Wingman nad Blue Falcon flew over and gestured for Xuan Ye to follow. After exchanging goodbyes with the Wing King, Xuan Ye took off, led by the Blue Feather Wingman Blue Falcon, toward the Holy Church’s encampnt. Watching Xuan Ye’s figure fade away, the Wing King’s lips curled into a faint smile, but his eyes were filled with a cold intent. He called out in a low voice, "Co."
Four Blue Feather Wingn gathered around, and the Wing King ordered, "Pass on my command, before the break of dawn, assemble the leaders of the Blue Feather Clan Defense Battalion and the Red Feather Team leaders from patrols one to five hundred. We will join the Holy Church in battle."
"Yes, Wing King." The four of them respectfully acknowledged the order and took off to convey the commands. The Wing King pulled out a black orb from his bosom, flicked his wrist, and the orb emitted a piercing whistling sound, flying southeast. Golden light reappeared on the Wing King, who floated up and returned to his own dwelling in the trees.
Having settled the matter of enlisting the Winged Tribe’s help against the Dark Demon Clan with the Wing King, Xuan Ye was in high spirits. Under the escort of the Blue Feather Wingman Blue Falcon, he quickly returned to the camp. The main figures of the Holy Church’s expedition were all waiting for his return. Seeing Xuan Ye’s triumphant deanor, they didn’t need to ask to know that his mission was likely a success.
Blue Falcon floated in mid-air and saluted Xuan Ye, saying, "Your Grace, I shall take my leave until we et again." With that, he flapped his wings and returned to the embrace of the forest.
Xuan Ye landed next to Na Yan and said with a smile, "Our campaign should be able to proceed smoothly this ti." Without delay, he eagerly recounted his experiences in the Winged Forest.
As night enveloped them, everyone listened to Xuan Ye’s recount with various expressions. Na Yan asked cautiously, "Ye’er, do you think this Wing King can be trusted?"
Xuan Ye blinked slightly and nodded, "He should be trustable. After all, eradicating the Half-beasts and the Dark Witches only benefits them, and the Winged Tribe is known for their love of peace – their reputation is quite good."
With a grave face, Na Yan said, "It’s precisely because the Winged Tribe is known for their love of peace that I find it strange. I wouldn’t suspect anything if the Wing King had rely pointed out the way for us, but he so readily decided to lead the elite forces of his tribe to assist us. Don’t you think that’s suspicious? I think it’s best to be cautious."
Ballon laughed and said, "Priestess Na Yan, don’t you think you’re being a bit too careful? Don’t you trust Xuan Ye’s judgnt? I believe the Winged Tribe wouldn’t act against us. After all, they have no reason to offend the Holy Church for the sake of the Dark Demon Clan and the Half-beast Clan. We’ve never heard of any dishonorable acts by the Winged Tribe before! Judgnt Chief, what do you think?"
Xuan Yuan looked at Ballon expressionlessly and said, "What use is speculation now? Everything will beco clear tomorrow. Even if the Winged Tribe harbors ill intentions, they don’t have the strength to contend with us. It’s getting late; everyone should get so rest. We set out early tomorrow, aiming to complete the mission within three days." After speaking, he turned and left with the Holy Judges in tow.
Na Yan shook her head helplessly, patted Xuan Ye on the shoulder, and said, "Let’s hope everything goes smoothly tomorrow." Then she too returned to her own simple tent.
