After Admitting The Wrong God They Regret It - Chapter 47
The demon clan swiftly began to ascertain whether the information from the other party was true, whether it was a trap set by the alliance and the abyss. Upon receiving basic confirmation, they immediately prepared to take Xinghui to the Lingyan Star.
At this moment, the Lingyan Star was anxiously awaiting the arrival of the demon clan.
The alliance covers a wide range, basically all within the scope of the abyss are signatories to the alliance agreement and belong to the alliance members.
However, just like the demon clan, not all races are as unwavering in their faith in the gods as the races in the upper star systems.
The faith of the Lingyan tribe itself is not very strong, it is considered a race with a low presence in the alliance, so they have always lived in remote lower star systems, with low levels of technology, and have even been isolated from surrounding planets due to their lack of firm faith.
In addition, on the edge of the abyss, the effect of the abyss on suppressing pollution sources in these remote areas of the lower star systems is poor. The Lingyan tribe has repeatedly sought help in vain because of the relationship between technology and resources. They simply cannot obtain items with divine spiritual power. It was at this time that they saw the live broadcast footage.
The spiritual power of the Lingyan tribe is relatively mild and suitable for exploration work. Before the cosmic storm, the Lingyan tribe had many masters in similar industries. Like the demon clan, they also tried to seek help from the Bright Star and searched everywhere on their own planet for resources to suppress genetic diseases.
But in these few months, their requests for help have never received specific information. The Bright Star has always used the excuse that the Lord of Gods is unwell, and there are many planets worse off than Lingyan Star, asking them to persevere. They have been politely refused many times.
It was at this time that they saw the live broadcast clip, including the black-haired god and the fragments of the god surrounding him.
In the process of exploration, they discovered a mineral in a canyon crevice similar to the fragments of the god, and that mineral also has a certain inhibitory effect on genetic diseases, so they brought it back.
However, if it’s just the fragments of the god, placing them aside would not have much impact on the situation of the tribe members. So they tentatively sought help from the demon clan.
Now it’s the second day since they received the demon clan’s reply message.
“Chief, will the demon clan really come?”
A young Lingyan clan member stood behind the chief of the Lingyan tribe, tightly pursing his lips, his face showing an uncertain expression. They have sought help from the gods too many times, and each time they returned empty-handed, which was a huge blow to all the Lingyan tribe.
Indeed, they found those clips that hadn’t been deleted from the network, confirming that the demon clan also has a god, and the black-haired god can also suppress genetic diseases. But after being rejected so many times, the concept of gods has already taken shape in the minds of these young people.
The fact that the other party fled from the Bright Star to the demon clan and received shelter from the demon clan is probably also because of the demon clan’s strong abilities. For races like theirs, if they didn’t have the mineral that resembles god fragments, would these gods really care about them?
“They will come, they will.”
The chief of the Lingyan tribe, Baoshan, is relatively young by interstellar standards, in his forties, but he has aged rapidly in the past decade due to the torment of genetic diseases.
He didn’t know if he was comforting the people around him or himself.
“At least we have the fragments of the god, right?”
“But wasn’t it supposed to be an exchange operation in the first place? Why don’t we just explain the situation to the Bright Star?”
The young man was puzzled.
“Isn’t the Bright Star also searching for fragments of the god everywhere?”
All these gods are the same, so why should they risk seeking help from the demon clan? Wouldn’t this be considered betrayal to the Bright Star? If the people of the Bright Star arrive before the demon clan, the situation would definitely be bad.
“In any case, it’s just exchanging that damned thing for a place to survive,” the young man’s face was slightly mocking, “why bother to distinguish so clearly?”
“Baofan.”
After hearing these words, Baoshan smiled.
“I admit there is indeed some selfishness in this matter, but I have dealt with the old men of the upper star systems many times over the years, and I understand their thoughts. I not only sent a message to the demon clan, but also to the Bright Star. I just didn’t mention the matter of the god fragments at the beginning, just asking for help again, seeking assistance.”
Baofan raised his head and looked at the aging chief.
“It’s also a bit of a gamble. I wanted to see who would reply first. The demon clan replied quickly, and it wasn’t evasion or rejection, but genuinely asking us what help we needed. After learning about the severity of our genetic diseases, they even taught me the distribution of the minerals I consulted you about a few days ago. You also know that in these past few days, we have found two new energy mines in that possible mineral distribution, which are indeed concealed by powerful star beast spiritual power.”
So he believed not in any god, but simply chose the one who had truly provided some help to them.
Even if Yue Jian of the Bright Star is really ill and extremely busy, sheltering so many star systems in the alliance, he simply doesn’t have time for their small planets. But his vision is not as broad as the entire universe; what he needs to protect is his own people.
“I understand.”
Baofan responded lightly, pulling up the hood covering the back of his head with his hand.
“I’ll go to meet them, and you mentioned before that we need to leave Lingyan Star, right? I’ve already had them prepare for it.”
Baoshan nodded.
Since they have chosen the demon clan, after handing over the fragments of the god to Xinghui, they cannot continue to reside on Lingyan Star. That would practically make them a target in the eyes of the alliance.
He had already considered this. He heard that Xinghui had sheltered a planet that originally belonged to a lower star system, where there were few people, only some children of local races. He had studied that planet, and it seemed quite suitable for the Lingyan tribe to live on. His goal was to use the fragments of the god as an exchange to obtain a new place to survive.
As he was contemplating this, Baofan, who had just left, hurriedly returned.
“Chief!”
Baoshan turned to look at him.
“They’re here?”
The young man’s face looked somewhat unpleasant.
“It’s not a starship from the demon clan that’s arrived. Judging from the appearance of that starship, it looks like the coating commonly used by the upper star systems. I just don’t know which race from the upper star system has come.”
Baoshan’s expression also changed drastically.
“How could they come so quickly?”
He stood up all of a sudden.
He had sent a message to the demon clan and tentatively sought help, and also mentioned the matter of the fragments of the god. In total, it had only been two or three days. Even if the upper star systems received the message, they couldn’t have arrived so quickly. By the time they arrived, they should have left with the demon clan and waited here boldly.
The starship of the upper star system slowly landed in the open space of the Lingyan tribe.
The emblem on the starship finally became visible.
It was the elves of the upper star system.
The elves who came down from the starship were a smiling young man with long elf ears. His emerald hair and azure eyes exuded intoxicating colors under the light. Looking at the Lingyan tribe who came to greet them, the man still smiled warmly.
“You must be the chief of the Lingyan tribe?” He elegantly extended his hand, maintaining the best etiquette. “I am Zuo Tan, the court judge of the elves. I’m sure the chief is aware of the purpose of my visit. Regarding the fragments of the god mentioned by the chief, it’s quite a coincidence. While all races are searching for the fragments of the god with all their might, our elven fleet happened to be closest to the Lingyan tribe.”
Baoshan politely smiled.
“Judge Zuo, welcome to our humble abode. We really have nothing to offer here, and most of the young adults in the tribe are bedridden due to genetic diseases.”
Zuo Tan looked at this good-tempered person, but having held a high position of authority for a long time, he didn’t particularly value these remote lower star systems. Moreover, he understood that they intercepted the message sent by the Lingyan tribe to the demon clan, and they weren’t sure when the demon clan would arrive. If it came to a showdown, he knew his own limits. Apart from the dragon clan and a few other races, no one dared to compare spiritual power and physique in front of the demon clan.
Listening to Baoshan beating around the bush and stalling for time, while overtly and covertly mocking Yue Jian for failing to protect them, letting the situation in their tribe become more severe, Zuo Tan was starting to feel impatient.
“Chief, I think you should know that His Highness Yue Jian is currently unwell, and he’s really unable to do much. Don’t you feel his concern for you in the past five years? Just recently, the alliance has changed its relationship with the demon clan. Sending secret messages to the demon clan like you did can be sentenced in a military court, do you know that? I advise you to hand over the fragments of the god as soon as possible. His Highness Yue Jian is still very kind. After that, he will definitely help your tribe.”
Seeing the expressions of the Lingyan tribe behind him, Zuo Tan took a step further.
“Your tribe has been sheltered by the abyss for ten years, and later by His Highness Yue Jian. You can’t forget your roots, can you? It would be very ugly if it came to that. Besides, you don’t even know the details of the black-haired god. How dare you send the message to the demon clan? I thought that being cunning, sly, and malicious was common knowledge among the demon clans in the interstellar.”
“Chief.”
Baofan called out softly, using his eyes to ask what they should do next.
Although the other party was not a race with strong attack power, the elves, as an upper race, were still something they couldn’t deal with. Not to mention that most of the Lingyan tribe were tortured by genetic diseases and were in no condition to resist.
They couldn’t wait for the demon clan.
Baoshan felt a bit unwilling. Was there any way to delay the time?
But under the pressure of the impending arrival of the demon clan, Zuo Tan had already lost the patience to continue the conversation with them.
“If it weren’t for His Highness Yue Jian’s instructions to communicate with you people from the lower star systems properly and not to do anything rash because you were temporarily blinded, I would have taken all of you back to the military court…”
He glanced disapprovingly at the Lingyan tribe.
Then, with great care, he took out a potted plant from the package he had brought.
The plant in the pot was different from the ones Yue Jian usually grew. It had lush foliage and colorful flowers.
“Anyway, the fragments of the god will resonate with the power of the god, so you don’t have to say anything.”
As soon as he said this, the fragrant aroma of the flowers filled the air.
As the fragrance spread, waves of warm white light illuminated from a corner of a house.
Author’s note:
Regarding the distress signal:
Yuanyuan: My wife will definitely save them. Maybe there are wild races who want to acknowledge a god again. Let them fend for themselves first, stop always relying on my wife!

The bad news is probably that I have a fever, but the good news is it’s not too uncomfortable, and with ibuprofen, it’s even less painful when Aunt Flo visits haha_(:з」∠)_
I’ll write a longer chapter once the fever subsides.
Love you guys.
I’m gonna lie down first.
