414 Celestial Water Spark (1/2)

As such, if the Great Ironhawk Tribe had succeeded in their plans, the Darkmoon Tribe would have slowly ceased to exist if they could not find another Water Vein in the underground to regain access to drinkable water.

Leon began to understand why they would go to such lengths to keep the secret sealed. The Great Ironhawk Tribe wanted to destroy the Darkmoon Tribe, but they do not want to fight an all-out war.

This should also be why the spies no longer tried to recruit him and made attempts on his life. It was not a closed secret that he can cure Demon Possession. If the spies stayed within the tribe for a period of time, they would come to learn this truth.

They had no other choice but to kill him since he could potentially remove their runes once they are caught, which in the end, did happen.

”Why is the Great Ironhawk Tribe doing this? Why target the Water Vein? Does the Great Ironhawk Tribe want to destroy the Darkmoon Tribe?” Master Woodrow questioned with his hypnotic voice.

”The Great Ironhawk Tribe does not intend to destroy the Darkmoon Tribe specifically... Other groups had also been sent to aim for the Water Veins of Blackwind Tribe and Crimsonfog Tribe as well.” Ironback said with a struggling expression, as if not knowing how else to answer the question.

”Oh?”

Master Woodrow narrowed his eyes dangerously and exchanged a glance with Chief Valencia.

”The Great Ironhawk Tribe want to destroy the entire Seven Tribe Alliance by themselves? Or do they want to force us to migrate to the central plains and surrender to them? Either way, the Great Ironhawk Tribe sure has a big appetite!”

Ironback continued to struggle and failed to answer any further questions. He knew some information, but he did not know the most vital parts of the great mission assigned to him and the others.

”The chief did not mention this in his plans...” The spy could only say.

After Master Woodrow asked a few more questions without gaining anything useful from the spy's answers in return, he said, ”It seems this person does not know anything else.”

”Since he is no longer useful, then he also no longer needs to live.” Chief Valencia said coldly, giving the person the death sentence.

She had been holding back her fury while the interrogation was underway. But now, there was no longer any need of her to hold it back. She immediately used her hand as a sharp knife and decapitated the person.

”Haiz, lass, you're letting your anger blind you!” Master Woodrow sighed with a shake of his head after Chief Valencia killed Ironback.

After hearing this much, Chief Valencia was slightly startled and refrained from killing the other unconscious spy.

Nevertheless, she did not feel good. She wanted nothing more than to immediately set out and slaughter every person from the Great Ironhawk Tribe.

”What you said makes a lot of sense… I will have to trouble Little Brother Leonhardt again later,” Chief Valencia said wryly with a forced smile.

”Don't worry about it.”

Leon smiled lightly in response. However, he could not help but start to think about the Water Vein. He had yet to see the Darkmoon Tribe's Water Vein for himself; thus, he was quite curious about it.

”What do you have on your mind, Little Brother Leonhardt?” Master Woodrow asked after noticing Leon's thoughtful expression.

Leon gathered his thoughts for a moment before he said, ”There's something I've always found strange. The tribes on the Infertile Plains have always been using the Water Veins for the past few hundred years?”

”That's right. That has always been the case. Without the Water Vein, it is challenging for a tribe to prosper. After all, one would be at the mercy of others if they have to buy water from them. Has Little Brother Leonhardt never seen a Water Vein before?” Master Woodrow asks.

Leon shook his head.

”Would like you to check it out?” Chief Valencia offered.

Leon turned to the chief and asks with surprise, ”Is that fine?”

Considering how furious Chief Valencia is after learning the Water Vein was being targeted, he would assume that he would not be getting a chance to check it out.
