Then, amidst the shocked gazes of the crowd, the "resurrected" Iron Skill Bone hobbled up to Mo Hua, and slowly knelt down before him, devoutly saying:

"Sinner Iron Skill Bone thanks the Divine Witch for his life-saving grace. Now, under the command of the ancestor, I swear to loyally serve the Divine Witch, fearless of fire and water, regardless of the cost. I beg the Divine Witch to save the Shugu Tribe from the famine, to continue the bloodline of the Shugu Tribe..."

Iron Skill Bone’s words were calm and devout, full of reverence.

This scene, these words, also stirred shock in the hearts of the people of the Shugu Tribe.

The Iron Skill Bone, who sacrificed his life... wasn’t dead?!

The Divine Witch retrieved Iron Skill Bone’s life from the ancestors?

The ancestors commanded Iron Skill Bone to serve the Divine Witch.

The ancestors also entreated the Divine Witch to save the Shugu Tribe from disaster?!

If this had happened elsewhere, they might have doubted it, but now they were in the Shugu Tribe’s ancestral tomb.

Mo Hua emerged from the White Bone Tomb, from the brink of life and death, from the ancestor’s "grave".

The image of white bones blooming like flowers, enhancing his presence, was still vivid.

Shock appeared on everyone’s face.

Subsequently, many Shugu Tribe barbarian soldiers uncontrollably knelt on the ground, offering the highest reverence to Mo Hua:

"Divine Witch is wise!"

"We beg the Divine Witch to save us from disaster!"

Faith ignited like a flame in the hearts of the Shugu Tribe, eventually becoming a raging fire.

More and more people from the Shugu Tribe, like "dominoes", one after another, knelt in front of Mo Hua, chanting:

"Divine Witch is wise!"

"We wish the Divine Witch to save us from disaster!"

The sound of praise, like a mountain and sea, swept through the entire White Bone Tomb.

The number of people kneeling increased, first the barbarian soldiers, then the heavy armored soldiers, and quickly even the Golden Core Stage of the Shugu Tribe couldn’t resist kneeling, a feeling of faith arising in their hearts.

In the end, everyone knelt on the ground, shouting "Divine Witch is wise".

The only one standing was Lugu.

He was the general and soon to be the Great Chief of the Shugu Tribe.

But his followers, his tribesmen, his subordinates, his barbarian soldiers, his clansmen, all knelt before Mo Hua.

In front of the worshipped Mo Hua, Lugu’s tall and mighty figure seemed extraordinarily lonely and small.

The will of the people, the reverence of the tribe, and the entrustment of the ancestors.

Lugu’s expression twisted, his heart in agony.

Ultimately, the momentum of the situation overcame his pride.

Lugu took a deep breath, his figure desolate, and knelt down on one knee before Mo Hua.

Thus, in the White Bone Tomb of the Shugu Tribe, under the witness of the Shugu ancestors, everyone in the Shugu Tribe, from the generals to the barbarian soldiers, from the late Golden Core to the ordinary Foundation Establishment Barbarian Cultivators, all knelt before Mo Hua, the sacred and solemn "Divine Witch"...

...

Lugu knelt down before Mo Hua, but that didn’t mean he was truly willing to submit.

Mo Hua knew this well, and he said nothing.

Since then, Lugu did not go to see Mo Hua.

Until one day three days later, just as dawn was breaking, Mo Hua had just opened his eyes after practicing formations all night, and saw a huge figure standing outside the house.

Unsurprisingly, it was Lugu.

"Come in." Mo Hua said.

With Mo Hua’s permission, Lugu then entered the house, at this time he not only appeared much more respectful, but even carried some caution.

This was the caution shown to a "strong power" and a "superior".

Lugu stood before Mo Hua, saying nothing.

Mo Hua looked up at him, calmly saying: "Did your ancestors appear in your dream?"

Lugu’s expression changed slightly, slowly saying: "Yes..."

He was just about to ask Mo Hua how he bewitched the ancestors.

But on second thought, it seemed impossible.

The ancestors had an ancient inheritance, such mighty power, how could they be bewitched by a "demon monster"?

If this "demon monster" truly possessed the capability to bewitch the Shugu ancestors, conversely, it would suggest that this "demon monster" might not be an evil demon.

And truly be a deity with divine power, walking in the Great Wilderness as a Divine Witch.

Lugu subconsciously thought this.

But his pride refused to admit it.

He stubbornly believed that Mo Hua, with a black heart under a white face, was just an evil demon monster, not related at all to the great deities.

Especially...

Lugu thought of the tall, gloomy corpse behind Mo Hua, thought of his brother who still couldn’t rest in peace after death, and his face darkened like water.

Mo Hua seemed to pierce through Lugu’s thoughts at once, slowly saying: "Are you still concerned about your brother’s matter?"

Lugu remained silent, but his eyes were full of clear hatred, which already explained his feelings.

Mo Hua calmly asked: "Would you be satisfied if your brother were now buried in the ground?"

Lugu coldly said: "Resting in peace, at least he wouldn’t be disturbed, wouldn’t be manipulated as a ’puppet’."

Mo Hua asked him: "And then?"

Lugu frowned, "And then what?"

Mo Hua, with an indifferent tone, said: "What comes from resting in peace? What comes from being undisturbed? Is your brother an ordinary person? Does he need peace after death?"

Lugu was stunned.

Mo Hua continued: "Let me ask you a question... If right now, your brother just died, buried underground, his physical body decaying, his achievements sealed, how would the people of the Great Wilderness see him?"

Lugu was somewhat amazed.

Mo Hua said coldly: "Others would only see him as a failure, a mediocrity of a commander, an inactive general, dying under schemes and only having cultivation skills as a stupid brute."

"Shut up!" Lugu was furious, his eyes blood-red, like an enraged fierce beast, glaring at Mo Hua.

Mo Hua remained indifferent to Lugu’s rage, calmly saying:

"You can be angry, you can rage, but does it help?"

"Public opinion is relentless, facts need no debate, your brother’s deeds are just that. People will only see him as a failure. His name is renowned now, but in ten years, it will fade. A hundred years later, it will disappear into dust, and no one will mention it again."

"This is the ’peace after death’ you desire..."

"Peace after death also means... anonymity."

Mo Hua looked at Lugu with a calm gaze.

Lugu’s anger gradually faded away, replaced by clear pain and the sorrow of a nameless hero.

Mo Hua fell silent, then slowly spoke again after a moment:

"But... now that his corpse is in my hands, it’s completely different..."

Lugu was stunned, looking up at Mo Hua.

Mo Hua’s voice was calm, with a hint of coldness, "Given time, I will ask the Divine Lord to bestow your brother a fate. Even dead, your brother can ’live’ again, fighting in all directions in another form."

"His remains can still walk on the land of the Great Wilderness."

"His physical body will crush all the Divine Lord’s foes."

"Even dead, left with just a ’corpse’, he still may have a chance for achievements and still might have another chance to establish immortal merit in the Great Wilderness, allowing his deeds and fame to be passed down forever..."

"He would expand territories for the Divine Lord and unify the Great Wilderness."

"The entire Barbaric Wilderness, for generations, will praise your brother’s renown."

"If it were you, what would you choose?"

Mo Hua’s words were powerful.

In Lugu’s heart, stormy waves rose, filled with ambition, burning like fiery flames in his chest.

"Even dead, with only a corpse, still may achieve, still may accomplish feats unfinished in life..."

These words resonated in Lugu’s ears.

Lugu suppressed his ambition, knelt on one knee before Mo Hua.

This time, he sincerely knelt.

He no longer cared about what Mo Hua did to his brother; instead, he was now full of gratitude.

"Thank you... Divine Witch..."

"Lugu, along with the entire Shugu Tribe, from now on, is willing to serve the Divine Witch, fight the enemies, and be willing to give up our lives."

Mo Hua looked at Lugu, who knelt on one knee before him, making a vow, his gaze deep and slowly nodded.
