Chapter 159 A Heartwarming Conversation
He was holding a feathered crown that looked ethereal.
It was even more beautiful and exquisite than the previous feathered crown. Most importantly, it was so white that it seemed to be untouched by any dust. The feathers swayed gently in the surrounding breeze, adding to its ethereal quality.
The feathers he used in the previous sacrifices were also from the Rabbit Forest. The feather crown made for him was made of feathers from the Rainbow Phoenix Chicken, which was also very characteristic of the Beastman Continent, but it did not look as sacred as the one in front of him.
But these feathers…
Why does he look so familiar?
"How is it? Does it look good?" Tu Lin looked at Lin Baiyan with expectant eyes.
Lin Baiyan nodded hesitantly, "It's beautiful, of course it's beautiful, but..."
"Uncle Rabbit Forest, where did you get these feathers?" Lin Baiyan asked uncertainly.
Upon hearing Lin Baiyan's question, Tu Lin's face stiffened abruptly, and he finally said somewhat embarrassedly, "I borrowed some from the long-necked beasts in the tribe..."
Lin Baiyan was speechless. Although the long-necked beasts he brought back had settled in the tribe, they didn't usually like to get close to the beastmen. They just wouldn't refuse the food the beastmen gave them. Every day, they dutifully circled the tribe, like a different kind of working person.
The feathered crest in Rabbit Forest's hand looks like it used a lot of feathers; the long-necked beasts probably had to be plucked bald. How could they be willing to do that?
"The big white ones didn't attack you, did they?" Lin Baiyan found it somewhat amusing; Rabbit Forest had really gone to great lengths for this feathered crown.
Tu Lin gently placed the feather crest on the table, her face looking somewhat unnatural. "It's alright, I'm not injured."
He knew, of course, how powerful these long-necked beasts were, so he didn't go alone. He called Badger Cun along. Rabbit Forest had heard that Badger Cun couldn't even subdue these long-necked beasts and had almost let them injure the sub-beastmen.
This is a good opportunity to give him a chance to practice his reaction skills.
Badger: "Thank you, Uncle Rabbit Forest!" ?·°(???﹏???)°·?
So Tu Lin led Huan Cun in chasing the long-necked beasts for several days, causing chaos and confusion, before they finally managed to gather enough feathers to make a crown.
Of course, Badger's contribution was indispensable, after all, he got pecked on the butt by the long-necked beasts several times.
Badger Cun, clutching his butt and whimpering: (?o︵o?)
He originally intended to make a cloak for Lin Baiyan using the snow-white fox pelt from the tribe, or the wolf king's pelt, which would also look extremely cool.
However, with the weather so hot now, wearing such thick animal hides would be torture, so Tu Lin thought about it and decided to give up.
But this feathered crown looks really beautiful too!
"Come, let me put it on you and see." Tu Lin picked up the feathered crown, gently placed it on Lin Baiyan's head, circled him several times, and finally nodded in satisfaction.
"Great, great, I knew this white would suit you better."
These days, people on the Orc Continent value vibrant colors, but for some reason, Tu Lin always felt that this pure white color, untouched by a speck of dust, was more fitting for Lin Baiyan.
As it turned out, his idea was correct. After Lin Baiyan put on the feather crown, he looked as pure and holy as the snow on a high mountain, and he looked ethereal. His skin was already fair, so the color suited him well.
"I'll take this scepter then." As if by magic, Tu Lin produced another scepter carved from wolf bone from behind his back. The scepter was inlaid with many dazzling stones, and it was unknown how long Tu Lin had been collecting them.
When Tu Lin saw Lin Baiyan's outfit, he couldn't hide the affection in his eyes. "You look so good. You look more like a real priest now."
"No, we, Bai Yan, are already a great priest."
He could see Lin Baiyan's progress over the past six months. Now, Lin Baiyan was able to handle the affairs of the tribe perfectly.
Even the rituals he wasn't very good at before, he has gradually become proficient after six months of training, and now he can completely preside over a ritual.
Lin Baiyan suddenly met Tu Lin's gratified gaze, and scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly, "Uncle Tu Lin..."
Tu Lin was somewhat moved and wanted to reach out and pat Lin Baiyan's head, but his hand was halfway in when he realized that Lin Baiyan was wearing a feathered crown. So he patted his shoulder instead, "Now I'm really relieved."
Under the leadership of Lang Cang and Lin Baiyan, the Cangyan tribe is thriving and becoming increasingly prosperous, with the tribe gaining more members.
Lin Baiyan and Lang Cang did a much better job than he had imagined. You have to understand, they were just cubs before.
Tu Lin only recently learned that Lang Cang had just come of age. He never expected that the two highest-ranking figures in their tribe were both cubs.
At this point, Tu Lin had no choice but to boast a little. If he hadn't acted decisively and chosen Lin Baiyan and Lang Cang, the Cangyan tribe probably wouldn't even exist now.
Thinking of this, Tu Lin felt a little smug.
"Alright, put them away for now. On the day of the sacrifice, you can wear a beautiful outfit, and then take the feathered crown and scepter. You'll be the greatest priest!" Tu Lin took off the feathered crown.
Lin Baiyan obediently put down the scepter as well. "Uncle Rabbit Lin, thank you."
"If it weren't for you taking charge of things from the beginning, we probably wouldn't have survived to the north." Lin Baiyan looked at the elderly sub-beastman in front of him with a sincere expression.
Lin Baiyan's sudden emotional outburst caught Tu Lin off guard, and he quickly waved his hand, "I didn't do anything, I was just taking advantage of my age."
Lin Baiyan shook his head. The contributions of Tu Lin to them were obvious to all, and Lin Baiyan had long regarded him as his true elder.
He leaned forward slightly and reached out to hug Tu Lin.
Tu Lin was startled by his sudden action and was stunned for a moment. Finally, she reached out and patted Lin Baiyan's back, her smile unusually gentle. "Alright, alright, how old are you and you're still acting like a child."
Lin Baiyan gave him a hug, a little embarrassed, "I'm just a cub!"
Tu Lin looked at him with a smile on his face, "Alright, alright, Bai Yan is a cub."
The next day, when the sun was at its highest point, the sacrificial ceremony of the Cangyan tribe officially began.
This sacrificial ceremony is to celebrate the Cangyan tribe officially moving into their new house.
After more than three months, all the houses in the Cangyan tribe were completed.
Lin Baiyan, wearing a feathered crown and holding a scepter, walked step by step toward the high platform.
