"Look, what's going on? The people from the Rain Tribe are actually stronger than those from the Flower Tribe; they've opened two-thirds of the stone door in one go!"
"Yeah, it's simply unbelievable!"
"Oh my, it seems the Flower Tribe members are about to be sucked in!"
My gaze immediately shifted to the stage alongside Dumeng Princess, where I saw a member of the Flower Tribe being half-dragged into the stone door.
The Flower Tribe members were taken aback and stepped forward, seemingly wanting to rescue their comrade on stage, but they hesitated due to the rules.
"This is fantastic! Our Rain Tribe is truly impressive; it’s really true that the one who laughs last wins!" A member of the Rain Tribe stood up, retorting against the Flower Tribe. Just moments ago, the Flower Tribe had harshly criticized them, leaving them humiliated. They couldn't let this chance for revenge slip away.
The Flower Tribe members were instantly furious but found themselves powerless against the Rain Tribe.
"Oh my, the Flower Tribe members are gone!"
A wave of commotion erupted.
The Flower Tribe members were sucked into the stone door, and all that could be heard was a scream from one of them before everything fell silent as the stone door closed.
And thus, the Rain Tribe emerged victorious.
The Hostess stepped to the center, bringing the Rain Tribe members forward, raising her hand to announce to everyone present that the Rain Tribe was the winner of this round.
The Rain Tribe members were ecstatic, cheering loudly, while the Flower Tribe wore dejected expressions. Not only had they lost the competition, but they also lost a major prize.
However, it seemed that the Rain Tribe members were celebrating too soon because only one person could remain in the final competition.
As the next rounds progressed, tension escalated. Everyone's focus was on the stage as it moved on to the Wind Tribe and Electric Tribe.
"Look over there! How did some of those Flower Tribe members sneak away?" Dumeng Princess nudged me and whispered.
I turned my gaze in the direction indicated by Dumeng Princess and saw several members of the Flower Tribe sneaking out, looking quite suspicious.
"Where are they going?" I asked.
"I don't know, but they must have something else to do," she replied.
Frowning, I felt an uneasy sensation rising within me. I had to check it out; I couldn't shake the feeling that the Flower Tribe had ulterior motives.
"I'll go with you. If anything happens, we can look out for each other," Dumeng Princess said.
"But isn't it almost time for the Beast Clan to take the stage?" I expressed my concern. After all, Dumeng Princess was an important figure among the Beast Clan, and if she left, others might notice.
"Don't worry. Our Beast Clan doesn't really care about this Spirit Martial Conference anyway. Besides, we've never won it," Dumeng Princess said nonchalantly, giving me a gentle push to hurry me along.
We crouched down and slipped out while everyone's attention was focused on the competition.
As soon as we exited the venue, we spotted the Flower Tribe members getting onto an elevator.
"What should we do? They've gotten on the elevator!" I exclaimed anxiously. The elevator was quite far from the upper levels, and by the time it came back down, the Flower Tribe members would have vanished.
"Don't worry; I have a plan." With that, Dumeng Princess quickly pulled something from her pocket and tossed it toward the elevator, where some green powder stuck to it.
Dumeng Princess raised an eyebrow at me with a proud expression. Curious, I asked her what it was.
"This is our Beast Clan's most powerful Tracking Powder. As long as it sticks to them, we can find them. Let me show you something." Dumeng Princess took out a green Gecko.
This lizard looked rather peculiar.
I couldn't help but feel skeptical. Could such a small creature really lead us to the Flower Tribe members?
Seeing my doubtful expression, Dumeng Princess didn't argue with me. Just then, the elevator arrived, and we quickly stepped inside.
As the elevator doors closed, the Gecko in Dumeng Princess's hand suddenly jumped down and began bouncing around inside the elevator.
"What is it doing?" I wondered, intrigued by this little creature.
"It's sniffing out the scent of the Flower Tribe people," she replied.
My eyes lit up. Could this little guy really lead us to the Flower Tribe?
A flicker of hope ignited in my heart.
When the elevator reached the upper floor and the doors opened, the little creature leaped out with remarkable speed, its small head darting around as if searching for something.
"Has it found the Flower Tribe people?" I asked.
"Yes, they should be heading this way," Dumeng Princess said, pointing to the left. The little creature also turned its gaze in that direction.
It seemed this little guy was quite impressive after all.
"Let's go!" I urged.
"Okay!"
We followed closely behind the little creature, which picked up speed. After a while, it vanished from sight.
I stopped to catch my breath; I was exhausted. How could that little thing move so much faster?
Dumeng Princess also paused and looked ahead. "The Flower Tribe people should be just up ahead. That's why it was moving so quickly; their scent is very strong, and this little guy is quite enthusiastic about it."
After saying that, Dumeng Princess's expression froze for a moment as if she was pondering something.
"Wait a minute. This path leads to the Bird Tribe's dwelling. What could the Flower Tribe people be planning?"
"The Residence of the Bird Tribe"
Dumeng Princess nodded and said, "Yes, take a good look. I believe the Flower Tribe is not just trying to harm the Rain Tribe, but the entire tribe. Think about it, why would the Flower Tribe go to the Bird Tribe's residence first instead of the Rain Tribe?"
I was taken aback for a moment as thoughts raced through my mind. I immediately ran towards the Bird Tribe's residence. It was possible that the Flower Tribe intended to frame the Bird Tribe under the guise of the Beast Clan, as their most obvious conflict was indeed with the Beast Clan.
"How did you run so fast?" Dumeng Princess caught up with me.
I ignored her. I knew that if I was even a moment late and allowed the Flower Tribe to succeed, the Beast Clan would be in serious trouble.
"I mean, what are you doing—"
I quickly turned around and covered Dumeng Princess's mouth. At that moment, we had arrived at the Bird Tribe's residence.
"What are you doing? Do you want the Flower Tribe to discover us?" I whispered to Dumeng Princess.
Dumeng Princess immediately covered her own mouth, and I turned my attention back to the Bird Tribe's residence.
We were positioned in a concealed spot, just right in a corner where we could clearly see the most important area of the Bird Tribe.
"What is that?"
Members of the Flower Tribe took out two round-bodied, sharp-beaked creatures and threw them into two rooms of the Bird Tribe.
"Oh no, that's our Beast Clan's Venomous Wing. We usually wouldn't bring them out. This kind of creature releases a deadly gas. Once someone enters there, they will immediately inhale this toxic gas and die without any antidote," Dumeng Princess said.
My heart sank. How did the Flower Tribe get their hands on Venomous Wings?
Dumeng Princess's expression changed drastically as if she realized something. "There must be a traitor in our clan. Venomous Wings are not something just anyone can handle; they are usually cared for by trusted confidants of my father."
I felt a weight in my heart, suddenly aware of how dire the situation was.
Suddenly, a chilling scream echoed from within the two rooms.
It seemed to be the voices of Luan Bai and Luanqing.
"This is bad, something might have happened," I rushed out without caring whether the people from the Flower Tribe would see me.
"Don't go in, be careful!" Dumeng Princess immediately unleashed a beam of light to block my way.
"Why won't you let me in? The people inside are Luan Yuan's two sons. If something happens to them, it will be a huge problem for the Beast Tribe!"
Dumeng Princess frowned and said, "I know that, but have you forgotten? There is Venomous Wing's poison gas inside. Are you just going to walk in there and die for nothing? Don't you want to see your Ruoxi again?"
I hesitated for a moment. Dumeng Princess impatiently took out two scarves from her pocket and handed one to me. "Take this. It's not an ordinary scarf. If you wrap it around your mouth, it will isolate Venomous Wing's poison gas. That way, you won't get poisoned. I still want to see what your Ruoxi looks like, so don't let me down."
"Okay." I took the scarf from Dumeng Princess and wrapped it around my face before rushing into the room. There, I saw Luan Bai rolling on the ground in great pain, gripping his own hands tightly.
It seemed that Luan Bai had inhaled Venomous Wing's poison gas. My heart grew heavier; this poison was incurable.
At that moment, a strange cry came from nearby. Following the sound, I looked over and saw the Venomous Wing that had been released by the people from the Flower Tribe earlier.
