“They’re retreating! Retreating!”

A cheer suddenly erupted from the crowd, immediately attracting everyone’s gazes. It also attracted the gaze of the high priest who was quickly instructing the other two priests.

Everyone looked at the cheering person and followed his finger to the sky. They saw that all the ships of the Sand Eagle Fleet were turning around and slowly retreating into the distance.

Although the two war fortresses were slow because of Chu Nan’s destruction of the power furnace, they still firmly flew into the distance.

Although it was slow, it did not take long for them to turn into two black dots in the air and gradually disappear from sight.

!!

In a short period of time, the Sand Eagle Fleet which was dense like a group of flies surrounding two large iron balls floating above their heads had actually disappeared without a trace.

At first, the Rand Clansmen under the sky could not believe the facts they saw. Not many people cheered because of this. Most of them still stared at the sky nervously, afraid that the Sand Eagle’s fleet would fly out at any time.

Surrounded by Sand Eagle’s people and completely suppressed for six days, their hearts were already filled with despair.

Chu Nan’s appearance brought them a trace of hope, but even if they saw that the Sand Eagle Fleet had really retreated, they still did not dare to relax so easily.

A few minutes after the Sand Eagle’s fleet completely disappeared into the sky, a few cheers erupted from the crowd. Then, the cheers immediately spread wildly. In just a moment, the entire Holy Mountain fell into joy.

The two priests standing opposite the high priest were pleasantly surprised. The female priest said to the high priest with a glowing face, “That’s great! Sand Eagle’s people have finally been beaten away. The Holy Mountain is saved! We don’t have to leave anymore!”

The other male priest also patted his chest excitedly and said with lingering fear, “Fortunately, Sand Eagle’s people have finally retreated. Otherwise, the Sky Dome would not be able to last for long. Once the Sky Dome breaks, the Holy Mountain will be finished.”

However, the high priest was not as excited as the two of them. Instead, he first glanced in the direction of the Sand Eagle fleet’s retreat before turning to look at Angie Prairie, who was staring at the other sky not far away with concern.

Chu Nan had just fled in that direction. Angie Prairie was clearly worried about his situation.

“Miss Angie Prairie, can you contact Chu Nan?” the high priest asked.

Angie Prairie turned to look at the high priest and shook her head.

“No, the distance is too far. It’s beyond the communication range.”

“Then he…” The high priest hesitated for a moment, “I think since Sand Eagle’s people retreated, it proves that their Void Break Martial Artist’s pursuit of Chu Nan has failed. Therefore, he should be fine. You don’t have to worry.”

“I’m not worried about him. If he only wants to escape, it’s definitely not a problem.” Angie Prairie shook her head again. “I’m only worried about what you and your clansmen plan to do next.”

The high priest pondered and did not answer immediately. The female priest beside him replied happily, “Of course, it’s to immediately restore order and let everyone return to normal life.”

“Is that so?” Angie Prairie glanced at her and suddenly stretched out her hand to the high priest. “If that’s the decision, give me the thing first.”

The high priest was stunned, “Give you what?”

“You previously promised Chu Nan that regardless of whether the Holy Mountain is protected this time, you will let him have the chance to learn the higher-level Goddess’ Song and the elemental power cultivation method. Now that the Holy Mountain has been protected, you should fulfill your promise. Chu Nan is not here now, so it’s probably very difficult for him to return here. Therefore, please hand these two cultivation methods to me first and let me pass them to him,” Angie Prairie said.

The high priest frowned greatly. The female priest who was still happy earlier immediately said in dissatisfaction, “Hey, the danger of the Holy Mountain has just been resolved, and you’re in a hurry to ask for the cultivation method? Moreover, the high priest previously agreed to give Chu Nan a chance to participate in the trial, not directly give it to him. Let him return to participate in the trial. As long as he passes, we’ll naturally fulfill our promise.”

Angie Prairie ignored her and looked at the high priest.

The high priest frowned deeply and thought for a moment before saying, “This… Miss Angie Prairie, I’m very grateful to you and Chu Nan for your outstanding contributions in protecting the Holy Mountain and I’m willing to hand these two cultivation methods to Chu Nan and fulfill my promise to him. But due to the rules of the Holy Mountain, if he doesn’t pass the trial, he can’t obtain the inheritance. Please forgive us.”

“But I’m afraid he won’t have the chance to take the trial,” Angie Prairie said again.

“Why do you say that?” the high priest asked with a frown.

“Because if you still want to stay here, when the Sand Eagle’s people come again, the Holy Mountain will be completely destroyed. At that time, not only will Chu Nan not have the chance to participate in the trial, you might not even be able to protect yourself.”

Angie Prairie’s tone was extremely calm as if she was saying a simple fact. However, when they heard the Rand Clansmen beside her, they were immediately dissatisfied.

That female priest was furious, “What right do you have to say that? Since we can successfully defend the Holy Mountain this time, we can naturally do it next time! If the Sand Eagle’s people dare to come again, we’ll definitely make them pay a painful price!”

Angie Prairie turned to look at her and looked straight into her eyes. She did not speak, but the female priest involuntarily took a step back and shouted, “What do you want to do? The… the high priest made it very clear that he would give him a chance to test himself. This is already an exception for us. In the past, no outsider had ever had the chance to participate in the test.”

Angie Prairie still ignored her. Instead, she turned to the high priest again and asked, “Is this your final decision?”

The high priest smiled bitterly and looked at the surrounding clansmen who had different expressions but all had complicated expressions. He sighed, “Miss Angie Prairie, the Holy Mountain has just escaped danger. There are still many things to deal with. Can we discuss this later?”

“Alright.” Angie Prairie nodded. “Since this is your decision, I don’t have the ability to force you to change this decision now. If the Holy Mountain is destroyed next, I’ll ask Master to take action and let her snatch those two cultivation methods from Sand Eagle.”

With that, Angie Prairie raised her hand and waved it lightly at the high priest.

“Goodbye.”

After saying this, Angie Prairie turned around and shot out like an arrow. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared from the sky and into the vast wasteland.

The group of Rand Clansmen stared blankly in the direction where Angie Prairie had disappeared, unable to react for a moment.

Why did this girl leave just like that?

At this moment, Iho had just arranged a group of civilians from the Holy Clan. When he turned around and saw that Angie Prairie had actually run out alone, he was immediately shocked. He hurriedly flew over and asked the high priest in confusion, “Why did she leave?”

The high priest sighed deeply and calmed down. He did not answer Iho’s question but waved at the priests who surrounded him.

“Come, immediately hold a meeting with the Elder Council. Let’s discuss how to retreat from the Holy Mountain.”

All the surrounding Rand Clansmen were stunned and looked at the high priest in disbelief.

It was not easy to protect the Holy Mountain, but now, the high priest actually wanted them to retreat?
