After drinking the medicine, Clement became much more obedient.

He first pestered his mother for a while to make up for the intimacy he didn't get yesterday. Then, he took the initiative to slither into her sleeve.

Bai Di came to look for Huanhuan, saying that the elders of the Elders' Association wanted to see her.

They wanted to see her about the dissolution of the Elders' Association.

"Tell them to wait for me in the front hall."

"Mhm."

Bai Di left the bedroom to bring the elders to the front hall.

"Sit down. Huanhuan will be here soon."

With that, Bai Di stood beside her. His tall body was covered in metal armor, and he exuded a cold, hard aura that kept people away.

The elders wanted to probe, but seeing his cold appearance, no one spoke. They could only obediently cower.

A moment later, Huanhuan walked into the front hall.

Since she was indoors and it was too stuffy to wear a veiled hat, she didn't wear one. She just wore a snow veil over her face.

Even so, her eyes were shockingly beautiful.

The moment the elders saw her, they were involuntarily attracted to her eyes. They sat there in a daze, even forgetting to get up and bow.

After Huanhuan sat down, no one reacted.

Bai Di had no choice but to release his aura.

The air suddenly became oppressive. The elders' hearts trembled under the pressure, and they suddenly came back to their senses.

As if waking from a dream, they quickly got up and bowed.

"Greetings, Prophet."

Huanhuan said, "Sit down and talk."

The elders took their seats one after another.

pαпdα`noνɐ1`сoМ As there were no chairs or stools in the 10,000 Beast Temple, everyone sat on the floor. The floor was smooth stone and was covered in soft and thick cotton cushions. It was not uncomfortable to sit on it.

In this era, regardless of gender, most beasts wore animal hide skirts. A small number of beasts with better conditions would buy some cotton cloth for themselves to wear.

But be it animal hide skirts or cotton clothes, they all had something in common.

They didn't wear pants.

Beasts didn't like to wear pants. They didn't wear pants, shorts, or underwear.

When they sat on the floor, they liked to sit cross-legged, so a lot of them were exposed.

The eight elders in front of her sat cross-legged together. It was fine if their skirts were longer, but some of them were shorter. As they sat down, their skirts rode up to their thighs, revealing everything underneath.

Huanhuan only took a look and felt extremely blinded.

She coughed lightly. "Sitting cross-legged for too long is bad for your spine. You should kneel like me."

The elders did not know what bone the spine was, but since the prophet said that it was not good to sit cross-legged, they immediately changed their sitting posture and collectively knelt.

Now, they were no longer exposed.

Huanhuan heaved a long sigh of relief. "Why are you looking for me?"

There were a total of ten elders in the Elders' Association. Other than the first elder who had been hung on the city gate and the second elder who had been sent to the Sun God Temple to take up a position, there were still eight elders left. Now, all eight elders were here.

The third elder was the representative.

Faced with Huanhuan's question, everyone focused their gazes on the third elder.

The third elder enjoyed being treated like the leader.

He straightened his back and explained their intentions this time.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

"I heard that you want to dissolve the Elders' Association. We're here this time because we hope that you won't dissolve the association on account of our hard work over the years and leave us old fellows a way out."

These words were sincere. Huanhuan smiled. "Don't worry, even if the association is disbanded, I won't force you to a dead end."

Everyone was puzzled.

Huanhuan said slowly, "I have a very important mission for you. As long as you succeed, you'll be heavily rewarded."

The third elder quickly asked, "What mission is it?"

"I need to build altars in various beast cities and tribes on the beast continent. The more the better. It's best if each tribe and beast city can have its own altar. The scale of the altars is set according to the size of the tribes and beast cities. You can split up, and I'll give you three months. Those who can build more than five altars can get 100 green crystals. In the end, the person who builds the most altars will not only get an additional 50 green crystals, but they can also be put in an important position again."

The elders' eyes lit up.

Even for them, 100 green crystals was a lot.

Moreover, the person who built the most altars could be given an important position.

This meant that even without the Elders' Association, they could still obtain power from Huanhuan.

At the thought of this, the elders agreed one after another. They wanted to show that they could definitely complete the mission arranged by the prophet!

...

In order to get as much of a headstart, after the elders left the divine mountain, they immediately went home to pack their luggage. They wanted to set off for the various beast cities and tribes as soon as possible.

After sending the elders away, Huanhuan continued to ponder over what gifts to give her mates.

She decided to plant four pots of flowers for Bai Di, Shuang Yun, and Sang Ye.

The variety of flowers in each pot would be different, and since she had a natural affinity with plants, the flowers she personally nurtured would grow especially quickly. Ten days was more than enough.

This way, all four conditions would be met.

Huanhuan browsed through the seeds in the space and finally chose bougainvillea, rose, golden willow, and red blossom.

She placed the seeds in their pots, then bit her finger and dripped a drop of blood into each.

They immediately took root and sprouted at a visible speed.

In the blink of an eye, they had grown into seedlings.

Huanhuan carefully watered them and muttered softly, "You have to grow up quickly. It's best if flowers bloom."

The four seedlings seemed to sense her anticipation and tried their best to grow taller.

The next morning, when Huanhuan came to look at them, she realized that they were already half a meter tall. The red blossom had even formed a small flower bud.

Huanhuan was very surprised. "You guys are so hardworking!"

At this moment, Jian Yi hurried in with a rather solemn expression.

"Lady Huanhuan, something bad has happened."

Huanhuan immediately put down the flower pot in her hand and frowned. "What's wrong?"

"A guard just reported that someone kidnapped the first elder!"

"What?!" Huanhuan suddenly stood up. "Someone actually kidnapped the criminal from the execution ground in broad daylight? Send someone to chase after them immediately. We can't let the first elder go. We have to see him, dead or alive!"

"I've sent people after them, but they're very skilled. The people I sent couldn't catch up."

At this, Jian Yi lowered his head and looked ashamed.

Shuang Yun suddenly walked in. "I'll go after them."

Huanhuan was very hesitant. She was worried about letting Shuang Yun leave.

"Executing the first elder is your first decision after taking the throne. If you let him escape, it's equivalent to your humiliation. How can you establish your might in front of the beasts in the world in the future? Leave this matter to me. I promise I won't let the first elder escape alive."

Hearing his words, Huanhuan could only nod in agreement. "Alright, then be careful on your way. Come back quickly. When you come back, I'll give you your gift."

"Alright!"
