Village Head's Debauchery - Chapter 1276

Chapter 1276: The Supreme Leader’s Word, Reclaiming The Floating Frost Valley
Yes, there were no free supports. Since this mysterious group had chosen to support them, there must surely be an agenda behind it. Though she was grateful for their assistance, after experiencing the betrayal that led to the near-annihilation of their resistance force, she would instead refuse their aid rather than suffer the same fate again.

“Does she speak for all of you?” Orion asked. It was only through their voices that he could distinguish their genders.

The group all lowered their heads and gently nodded.

They shared Iy’yra’s sentiments.

“Even if the Celestial Spirit Court approaches us, I have already picked a side—standing with you and the other Spirit Beast tribes in this region. I promise not to go back on my word,” Orion said, giving them his assurance.

“Since he has given you his word, he won’t go back on it, no matter what happens. So, you no longer need to worry about us pulling back our support at the last second,” Ilse added, looking at the Spirit Beasts.

Sensing the sincerity in their words, Iy’yra and the other Spirit Beasts visibly relaxed.

“Alright, we look forward to your support,” Iy’yra said.

The other Spirit Beasts nodded in agreement.

“Return them to their normal size so we can leave,” Orion instructed.

Maeve waved her hand, releasing a wave of star-like dust that washed over the Spirit Beasts.

Instantly, they began returning to their standard size, one by one, regaining the strength they had lost while in their miniature forms. After recovering, the Spirit Beasts spread out.

The transparent platform expanded, allowing those unable to fly to remain afloat in the air with the others.

They bowed respectfully toward the group.

“Let’s go. You can show us the way to your tribes,” Orion said.

“Are we going to split up?” Thrys asked, his tone filled with concern, sensing Orion’s intent.

Orion nodded. “Yes, our goal is to take control of the entire Floating Frost Valley at once. Each of us will head toward different tribes and seize them simultaneously. Doing this one by one would alert the Celestial Spirit Court’s tribes in the region, and we don’t know how they would treat the tribes still under their control,” he explained.

“The Celestial Spirit Court will hesitate to reclaim the region until they understand how you managed to achieve such a feat. During that time, we’ll reorganize the tribes and prepare them to properly defend their home.”

Iy’yra, Thrys, and the other Spirit Beasts widened their eyes at Orion’s elaborate plan. Sure, it was a simple strategy to consider, which was why they had been concerned about the Celestial Spirit Court reaching out to the group.

However, the problem was that they could only think that far because they were already familiar with how the Celestial Spirit Court operated in the region.

Orion had only recently learned about the Celestial Spirit Court’s existence from their information, yet he devised such an elaborate plan, which showed that his understanding of such affairs ran deep. They couldn’t help but wonder what position Orion held in the Material Realm.

“Yes, you’re right. The faster we seize control of Floating Frost Valley, the less time we give the Celestial Spirit Court forces to react, ensuring our victory,” Thrys said, nodding in agreement.

He didn’t dare consider the possibility that their strength might diminish if they divided—after all, they had been effortlessly captured by just five of them. Before they could even sense it, 100 Knight Ranked Spirit Beasts had been eliminated without creating a disturbance.

Iy’yra swiftly soared through the sky, landing in front of Orion. She lowered her head and said, “If you don’t mind, I’d like to take you there on my back.”

Orion nodded. Although it would have been more efficient to fly himself, he saw no reason to refuse the invitation to ride a Spirit Beast.

As long as they accomplished their task just as efficiently, it didn’t matter.

Besides, he had promised Sylvalis he would show her cool things during their time in the Spirit Realm, and what better way to do that than to take her atop a flying Spirit Beast?

It would certainly be something she could brag about to Grace when they returned to the Paradise Realm.

Orion climbed onto Iy’yra’s back, placing Sylvalis in front of him.

Seeing Iy’yra’s success, the other Spirit Beasts flew toward Orion’s wives’ clones, Ilse and Zera. They took their places on thirty-six winged Spirit Beasts. The remaining two Spirit Beasts headed toward Flintor and Iris, but they were sent to Brane and Zara instead.

The remaining sixteen, like the Quill Hedgehog Tribe, were either unfit for riding or wingless, and they descended to the icy ground below.

Frost gathered on their feet and legs, but surprisingly, it immediately dispersed, forming a small spiral of cloudy frost around their feet. This created a strange scene in which it seemed as though they were walking several inches above the frosty land.

Witnessing this scene, Lyndon and the others felt their admiration for the Supreme Leader rise even higher. Who else could say they had been proudly offered a ride on a Spirit Beast during their first journey into the Spirit Realm?

Not even their ancestors!

The group was divided as follows: Three of Orion’s wives’ clones, along with eight Prismerion Divine Apostles and ten of his bonded servants, went to ten tribes. Ilse accompanied one of the groups, while twelve of his bond servants, ten divine apostles plus an unconscious Fintor, Zera, Brane, and the others, including the Four-Eared Elves and two more of his wives’ clones, Gina and Reena, who hadn’t yet been assigned to a group, joined Orion and Sylvalis, lead by Celeste’s, Maeve’s, and Fifi’s clones at the forefront.

With this formation, they were confident they could recapture all ten Spirit Beast tribes and reclaim Floating Frost Valley in a single day. And if they encountered any unexpected formidable individual, a Vylkr spawn, or a Divine Corps member, his wives’ clones would be able to buy time for the others to escape and return to Paradise.

If the situation proved too challenging, they would even self-destruct.

Once the arrangements were made, they swiftly spread out, heading in different directions.

…….

On a vast, snowy, floating island—tens of thousands of kilometres in radius—with streams of floating rivers crossing the island from afar and disappearing into the distance, a vast wooden fortress was built around it.

There were no less than two enormous gates serving as the entry and exit points of the island. Stationed at the gates were Silver-Winged Rhinos and Black-Feathered Winged Monkeys, and thousands were atop the wooden walls. Guarding the perimeter of the fortress were hundreds of these same Spirit Beasts, ensuring every stone was overturned during their checks.

Four Black-Feathered Winged Monkeys hovered at the centre of the enormous gates, monitoring their surroundings attentively.

“This is ridiculous. We should be hunting down real threats, not standing here watching over a beaten-down tribe. What do they expect? That they’ll suddenly grow a spine and rise up again? Hah! Not in a thousand years,” one of the four Black-Feathered Winged Monkeys grumbled.

“Exactly! We crushed their so-called rebellion with ease. If they had any strength left, they would’ve shown it already. Instead, all they do is cower in fear. Honestly, this is just a waste of our time,” Another one scoffed.

“You two only know how to complain. Orders are orders. The higher-ups don’t want any loose ends, and that means keeping an eye on things. Though I won’t lie, if I have to stay here much longer, I might start taking some of them to satisfy my appetite,” another one said with a sigh, crossing his arms.

“The rebellion was dealt with two weeks ago. The tribes have been handled, and yet they haven’t managed to chase down the remaining rebels for two weeks,” another one chimed in, his tone filled with dissatisfaction.

“Hehehe… Look at it this way. At least we aren’t the ones chasing the rebels. Two weeks, and they still haven’t caught them? That’s just embarrassing. We would’ve finished the job in two days,” another chuckled.

Just as the other Black-Feathered Winged Monkey wanted to respond, he paused and narrowed his eyes at a dot approaching in the distance. The other Black-Feathered Winged Monkeys noticed the strangeness and became alert.

The dot began to clear, revealing itself to be an enormous, expanding tsunami.

“SEND THE ALARM! WE ARE UNDER ATTACK!!”

“QUICKLY ALERT THOSE WITHIN THE FORTRESS!!”

They immediately raised the alarm, alerting those inside about the sudden approaching attack. Though they weren’t sure if this was a sudden environmental change or an ambush, they understood that it was heading in their direction. As such, they could only identify it as an attack.

The only thing they could do now was prevent the tsunami from reaching the fortress or relocate to a safe area until the chaos subsided. The Spirit Beasts above had also noticed the approaching tsunami and sounded the alarms at the same time.

Unfortunately, before they could properly react, the floating tsunami swiftly arrived, traversing the vast distance in the blink of an eye.
