Lilith and others witnessed Qin Jiu leaving through the wormhole. They looked at the empty space in front of them in disbelief and fell into the biggest cognitive gap in their lives.

Qin Jiu...can open a wormhole? !

Wang Ling thought of the wormhole he saw in Xingdu, and combined it with the subsequent encounter with Qin Jiu in Xingdu. He equated the two events and seemed to have guessed the origin of the Xingdu wormhole.

No one was willing to believe that Qin Jiu was related to the wormhole, but the facts were before their eyes, and Qin Jiu didn't seem to intend to deceive anyone at this moment.

This is not a good sign.

The clan leader had a vague uneasy premonition that Qin Jiu might be in danger on this trip.

An uneasy silence flowed in the air, carrying a suffocating sense of oppression.

In the end, it was Lilith who calmed down first and analyzed the current situation.

She looked up at the patriarch, her eyes so sharp that it seemed as if she could see through him.

"What did you talk about with Qin Jiu? We must know everything, not a single word is missing."

Kebli had no particular affection or dislike for Lilith. Now, when he heard that Lilith was actually interrogating her leader, he immediately stepped forward and rebuked her, "Speak with more respect."

Lilith just glanced at him and didn't take him seriously.

She didn't care about respect or not, Qin Jiu's safety should be put first. If Qin Jiu had any accident because of the old man in front of her, Lilith would not let anyone present go.

The same is true for Wang Ling and Gu Zheng.

So Gu Zheng and Wang Ling also silently stepped forward and stood beside Lilith. They didn't say anything, but they had made their position very clear.

Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming tense, the clan leader quickly stopped Kebli and sighed, "These things involve Qin Jiu's privacy, I can't tell you."

Hearing this, the remaining politeness on Lilith's face flew away with the wind, and she turned cold and was about to make a threat.

At this moment, the clan leader shook his head, as if accepting his fate, and said: "But, in the current situation, perhaps only you can help Qin Jiu."

"What do you mean?"

"I know where Qin Jiu is most likely to have gone, and I also know what she wants to do. But what she wants to do will lead to a result—" The clan leader stopped evading, stared straight at the girl in front of him, and said, "Qin Jiu will die."

When they heard this, their faces changed drastically. Lilith couldn't help but draw the gun from her waist and pointed it at the clan leader.

Kebli's divine pupils suddenly shrank, and he quickly stepped in front of the patriarch and blocked Lilith's gun.

For a moment, the air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.

The patriarch showed no fear. He just patted Kebli's shoulder gently and shook his head at him, signaling him not to worry.

Kebli reluctantly took a step sideways, but the look he gave Lilith was full of hostility.

The chieftain remained calm. He looked directly into the barrel of Lilith's gun and asked, "Have you ever thought about the consequences of doing this in my territory?"

"As long as you return Qin Jiu..."

"No, I didn't take Qin Jiu away. It was her own wish." The clan leader interrupted Lilith, his eyes showing seriousness. He asked again: "You want to kill me for Qin Jiu in my territory. Have you thought about the consequences? Can you bear this result?"

Lilith laughed in anger. She said, "At worst, I can die with you and take you with me to be buried with me."

The clan leader: "For the sake of Qin Jiu, is it worth it? If I remember correctly, you guys are all extraordinary, right? You don't cherish your bright future, but want to be buried with an old man like me? Is it worth it?"

"Stop talking nonsense. It's not for you to judge whether it's worth it or not."

The clan leader saw the resolute looks on their faces. He suddenly smiled and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, okay... Qin Jiu has made a close friend. Well, I tell you, now only you can help Qin Jiu and stop her from committing suicide. But you have to be mentally prepared, maybe what I say next is not so easy to accept."

Lilith showed a suspicious expression. She slowly put down the gun in her hand and waited for the chief to speak.

"Kal'an, come here." The patriarch waved to Ka'an. Ka'an hesitated for a moment, but still took two steps forward and stood beside the patriarch.

"This is Ka Lan. The two of us are considered...Qin Jiu's elders." The clan leader and Ka Lan told everyone some past events. He told them all about Qin Jiu's background and identity without reservation.

His intuition told him that the group of children in front of him would not betray Qin Jiu.

Even if they betrayed him, it didn't matter. After all, if they chose to stay out of it, Qin Jiu would hardly escape. In this case, it would be meaningless even if they knew Qin Jiu's secret.

"...So," the clan leader concluded, "Eve most likely wanted to devour Qin Jiu, which is why she made such a big fuss."

Everyone was overwhelmed by the shock and it took them a long time to recover.

These things sounded like stories made up by the clan leader and had no credibility. But if you think about the strange things that happened to Qin Jiu, everything seems reasonable.

How could Qin Jiu, a student who had never learned the knowledge of beast control and a child who grew up in an orphanage, get along well with war beasts? And how could he be smart enough to defeat them who had the top education level?

If what the patriarch said was true, then it all made sense.

Qin Jiu is an artificial human, so her intelligence, physical fitness and other aspects are higher than normal people. That is the result of genetic screening.

The reason why the war beast was close to her was probably because of the domineering nature of the snowflake tiger.

The descendants of humans and war beasts...

Such a ridiculous answer is actually the one closest to the truth!

The patriarch felt a little uneasy when he saw that they did not respond for a long time.

Was he wrong? Were these kids not trustworthy?

The clan leader asked nervously, "Are you afraid of Qin Jiu?"

Lilith and the others focused their eyes and set their gaze on the clan leader again.

“How could it be…” Gu Zheng chuckled, seeming somewhat relaxed. “I was so scared, I thought we were so bad that we lost to her. I almost doubted my life. Although she was cheating in the exam, at least I feel balanced now.”

A rare teasing smile appeared on Wang Ling's face, which was always serious: "Yeah, I thought we were just too stupid..."

Lilith knew they were talking about the entrance exam. She couldn't help but punched them lightly, rolled her eyes at them, and then brought the topic back to the right track: "So, how can we help Qin Jiu?"

When the patriarch saw that they were not afraid at all, he knew that he had made the right bet.

These kids are trustworthy.

He said to everyone: "You can't let Eve devour Qin Jiu, otherwise the entire galaxy will usher in its doomsday. There is one more thing..."

He said with some difficulty: "You can't kill Eve either."

"why?"

"because……

"If we kill Eve, Qin Jiu might die too."
