Reincarnated as a Divine Tree

“`

“Thank you, Clan Chief!”

“Thank you, Clan Chief!”

…

Hearing the clan’s rewards, many house servants beamed with joy and expressed their gratitude.

For ordinary people like them, eating just a few ounces a day made their blood surge and filled them with energy.

Five pounds of Blood Rice was more than enough for their monthly needs, and they could even share some with their families.

James Chen was also overjoyed at this moment.

What delighted him wasn’t the five pounds of Blood Rice, but the merits he gained from this harvest.

Combined with the time he previously bought for the clan, he believed it wouldn’t be long before he became a clan warrior.

Just as James was lost in thought, Ethan Chen’s voice suddenly reached his ears:

“James Chen, Oliver Chen, for your merits in planting Blood Rice, the clan will make an exception and teach you both the Body Tempering method.”

“Whether you succeed or not will depend on your own abilities.”

Hearing this, James, who was still deep in thought, was initially stunned but then overjoyed.

This was the opportunity he had been waiting for.

Even though he was already in his twenties, not the best age for Body Tempering, he knew he had to try. Otherwise, how was he different from a salted fish?

Moreover, once he became a warrior, he would be fundamentally different from ordinary people. Perhaps he could even reach greater heights.

But why did Oliver Chen get this opportunity too?

In every aspect, he was better than Oliver.

Looking at the equally delighted Oliver, James had some doubts in his heart but wasn’t foolish enough to contradict the Clan Chief.

When he turned his head, he met Ethan Chen’s gaze.

“James Chen, your outstanding merits in planting Blood Rice have earned you the privilege to temper your body with the flesh of fierce beasts.”

James, who had initially had some complaints, brightened up upon hearing this and quickly expressed his gratitude.

Tempering with the flesh of fierce beasts was far more effective than Blood Rice! His chances of becoming a warrior were much higher!

This was the clan’s trust in him and the Clan Chief’s recognition of him!

After rewarding the house servants, Ethan Chen looked at their joyful faces and smiled slightly.

In the past, he might not have been so generous. After all, there were nearly forty house servants now, and giving each five pounds of Blood Rice amounted to about two hundred pounds, nearly half the yield of an acre of fertile fields.

But now, he saw further.

Using some Blood Rice to win people’s hearts was the perfect strategy.

Perhaps among these house servants, some outstanding individuals might emerge.

As for them overshadowing the main family, Ethan didn’t care. These house servants were all older and not even warriors. If one or two capable individuals did emerge, it would be a pleasant surprise.

Letting Oliver and James become warriors was a small matter for the clan now.

Once they became warriors, they could do more for the clan.

James Chen was someone worth focusing on.

Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses.

This man was eloquent and had handled Gabriel Zhou’s visit very well last time. The clan currently lacked such a person.

As for the other clan members, they were somewhat lacking in this regard.

This was both a good and a bad thing.

A clan couldn’t have only one type of person; that would lead to difficulties.

Watching the busy clan members in the fertile fields, Ethan Chen stopped paying attention. In two days, it would be time for his meeting with Gabriel Zhou, and he needed to prepare.

But just as Ethan returned to the clan, a clan member suddenly reported:

“Clan Chief, one of the Spirit-Tailed Chickens is missing!”

“Hmm?”

Looking at the puzzled clan member scratching his head, Ethan was momentarily stunned but still asked:

“Tell me the details.”

“Clan Chief, it’s like this. I went to feed them early this morning, but when I got to the coop, I only saw one Spirit-Tailed Chicken. The other one seemed to be missing.”

“Those two Spirit-Tailed Chickens were specially kept for breeding by you, Clan Chief.”

After explaining, the clan member felt dejected, feeling guilty for losing the chicken.

If word got out, the other clan members would probably laugh at him for not being able to keep an eye on a chicken.

Seeing this, Ethan Chen smiled and comforted him:

“It’s alright, it’s just a chicken. No big deal. In a few days, I’ll have someone go to Disordered Burial Mountain to catch another one.”

After comforting the clan member, Ethan Chen headed to the Ancestral Hall to pay respects to the Sacred Tree.

Such a small matter didn’t concern him.

“What? The chicken is missing?”

Noah Ji, who was in the Ancestral Hall, didn’t think much of it at first. But when he used his senses to check, he found that his chicken was missing, which surprised him.

For the past few days, he had been monitoring the Spirit-Tailed Chicken he had used his Supernatural Power on, but recently, he hadn’t paid much attention.

He didn’t expect that in such a short time, the chicken would go missing.

No, he had to find it. That wasn’t an ordinary Spirit-Tailed Chicken; it had cost him two points of Vitality and one point of Spiritual Power!

“Huh?”

Ethan Chen, who had entered the Ancestral Hall, exclaimed in surprise, his face showing some confusion.

After confirming the thought that had come to his mind, Ethan was sure it was the Sacred Tree’s will.

Anything that caught the Sacred Tree’s attention was definitely not ordinary, even though he didn’t know what was special about it.

But since the Sacred Tree had spoken, he had to give it his all.

However, most of the clan members were busy harvesting Blood Rice, and there weren’t many suitable people to search for the missing Spirit-Tailed Chicken.

But Ethan quickly thought of a suitable candidate.

…

In his room, Oliver Chen was continuously practicing his punches, performing the moves of the Grand Ancestor Long Fist.

But each punch he threw didn’t emit any Qi and Blood.

After reaching the Innate Realm, he could perfectly control his Qi and Blood and practice combat skills without releasing them.

Since his battle with the Green Wolf, his understanding of the Grand Ancestor Long Fist had deepened, reaching a masterful level. This was partly due to his talent, but mostly from the insights transmitted by the Sacred Tree in his mind.

While Oliver was practicing his combat skills, a clan member’s voice suddenly came from outside:

“Oliver, are you there?”

Oliver opened the door and saw a panting clan member who had run over quickly.

“Qingxiu, what’s the matter?”

Oliver asked, puzzled.

“It’s the Clan Chief. He asked me to tell you…”

Before Qingxiu could finish his sentence, Oliver’s eyes lit up, and his aura surged, cutting off Qingxiu’s remaining words.

“Alright, I understand. I will give it my all!”

Oliver said with a firm and resolute tone.

These past few days, he had been worried about the clan’s future. That day, if the Clan Chief hadn’t stopped him, he would have fought Gabriel Zhou.

Now, with the Blood Rice harvest and the clan chief sending a message before the Zhou Family’s arrival, it was clear they were preparing to confront the Zhou Family.

He would give it his all and never retreat!
