Wait a minute, where is my master?

The two women were startled by the Taoist's clap, and Little Hong, the Clan Leader, and others also halted their discussion, turning their heads in bemusement to look at him.

"Cluck cluck?"

The elderly Age Chicken tentatively called out.

Little White, the translator, brightened up at hearing this and spoke.

"Temple master, is he saying there's not enough meat? There is some in the storeroom, we can send someone to get it right away."

Clearly, there had been a misunderstanding.

"...What does that have to do with anything?"

Jin Xu muttered to himself, then cleared his throat twice and said,

"Ahem, it's not about the meat. I just heard from Little White that the Clan Leader and Uncle Hong you are planning to rename the Age Chicken clan?"

"Cluck cluck."

"The elders indeed had this intention.

"Since this magic and divine skills were acquired from you, why not have you, the young Taoist, bestow the new name upon our clan as well?"

The Age Chicken imitator translated in a low voice, mimicking the tone of the original speaker.

The Clan Leader thought that the Taoist slapping the table was an expression of anger that they had decided on a new name without consulting him. By saying this now, it was essentially handing over the rights to name the clan to the young Taoist.

But he was still mistaken.

Of course, under normal circumstances, no matter how hard the elderly Age Chicken racked his brain, he would never guess why Jin Xu was slapping the table and yelling that it wasn't okay.

The young Taoist sitting diagonally opposite him, upon hearing the others asking him to name them, almost without hesitation, immediately waved his hands and refused.

Not to mention others, just looking at the nicknames of his friends and companions by his side... Jin Xu felt he was not cut out for the task of naming.

It couldn't possibly be that the fine Age Chicken clan would end up being called the Little * clan... right?

Seeing the young Taoist refuse, the elderly Age Chicken was slightly taken aback, then said,

"Cluck cluck."

"Temple master, he says if you do not wish to bestow a name, then they will stick to the original plan and rename themselves to ancient..."

"Ahem, I think the name Age Chicken is quite nice, perhaps Clan Leader, you could just not change it?"

Little White was halfway through translating when Jin Xu interrupted.

The elderly Age Chicken looked at Mr. Hong next to him with a puzzled expression, pondered for a moment, and then called out in a relaxed tone.

"Since the young Taoist says so, let it be."

After Husky translated the words of the other party, he whispered to the young Taoist,

"Temple master, I think that ancient...um."

Before he could finish speaking, Jin Xu raised his hand and stuffed a piece of fish into his mouth.

"There, eat and don't talk."

After the naming kerfuffle had passed, no other complications arose at the banquet.

An hour passed.

With their bellies full of food and wine, Jin Xu and his companions arrived outside the grove where the Great Master had lost his life force.

"Cluck cluck."

"The remains of that Great Master are just ahead. Young Taoist, please do not approach on your own later.

"According to the bloodline memory, apart from those bearing the bloodline of the Clan Leader of the Age Chicken clan, others who approach the remains of the Great Master will be subject to inexplicable attacks, even spiritual sense investigation is not allowed.

"Therefore, the few of you wait here for a while, and I will go forward to retrieve that purple-gold box for you."

As they walked towards the center of the coconut grove, the elderly Age Chicken specifically reminded everyone out loud.

Jin Xu nodded to indicate that he was aware.

And the Clan Leader was able to disclose this secret to everyone because the young Taoist had already given them the Golden Paper to copy earlier.

The group walked on the soft soil, heading deeper into the woods for about the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea.

The aged Age Chicken leading the way suddenly stopped in its tracks.

Little Taoist noticed that, seven paces ahead under a robust coconut tree, a huge purple-gold skeleton was propped against it.

In its right hand, it tightly clutched a not-so-large purple-gold box.

It must be the Sacred Treasure spoken of by the old Clan Leader.

"Glo-glot-da."

"Temple master, he says to wait here for a moment," Little White translated dutifully in a low voice.

"Hmm, be careful, old Clan Leader," Jin Xu nodded slightly, then his gaze suddenly turned to the small box, with a trace of confusion flashing in his eyes.

For some reason, he felt an extreme familiarity with the object inside the box.

Moreover, despite having no excess desires for a long time, he now felt an incredibly strong desire to possess that purple-gold box.

"Strange, if what the old Clan Leader said is true and this thing has been here for three hundred thousand years, why do I have this feeling?"

While Jin Xu was lost in his confusion,

The aged Age Chicken had already started hobbling towards the purple-gold skeleton of the Great Master, its steps shaky but it's mood exceedingly delightful.

His tribe, under his leadership, had been given a chance for rebirth; no longer would they suffer baseless calamities or be treated as food by anyone else.

"Surely in the future, I too may leave a name in the history of the Age Chicken tribe," thought the old Age Chicken, feeling emotional as he arrived in front of the purple-gold skeleton.

His beady eyes stared at it for a moment, then with a deep crow, he fluttered his wings and lightly struck the skeleton's right wrist.

The purple-gold box fell to the soft ground with a thud.

After awakening the ancestral memory from his bloodline, the old Clan Leader had visited this place countless times.

In his youth, he had tried various strikes against this skeleton. Indeed, as recorded in the memories, it had no reaction to Age Chickens with the bloodline of the Clan Leader.

However, the inherited memory was clear that it was best not to tamper with the purple-gold box to avoid any unpredictable dangers.

Therefore, for many years, the Clan Leaders of the Age Chicken tribe never touched the purple-gold box.

"Ha, this time, I too have made a decision against the wishes of my ancestors.

"But if our ancestor knew that my actions brought about a new dawn for the Age Chicken tribe, surely you would understand," said the old Age Chicken after knocking down the purple-gold box, standing in place and waiting for a moment in front of the purple-gold skeleton.

After making sure there was no change, he let out a very human-like long sigh before bending down to pick up the purple-gold box by its bronze ring and shakily walked towards Little Taoist and others waiting at a distance.

On the perimeter of the coconut grove.

Jin Xu stared at the purple-gold box in the beak of the aged Age Chicken, feeling the desire to obtain it growing ever stronger.

"Hiss!"

Little Taoist frowned, circulated the Golden spiritual power within his body, and forcefully suppressed the abnormal feeling.

Although the desire had calmed, the familiar sensation did not dissipate.

His brows furrowed, he watched silently as the old Age Chicken came closer step by step, planning to check the contents of the purple-gold box immediately after receiving it.

A few breaths of time passed.

Finally, the old Clan Leader reached Jin Xu, holding the purple-gold box by its bronze ring.

He raised his head, and Little Taoist bent down to receive it.

The moment Jin Xu took hold of the purple-gold box, he felt a cool sensation in his hands.

However, before he could open the box,

At the coconut tree seven paces away, the skeleton,

Underwent a sudden change!
