I really became a king.

Chapter 564: Minotaur Messenger

Zhuliu City, an exquisite small courtyard.

Jiang Yi was sitting there, opposite him was a minotaur in a long robe.

Seeing the minotaur that really appeared in front of him, Jiang Yi was not too surprised. After all, he had even seen the legendary dog-headed man, so there was nothing to be curious about the appearance of a minotaur.

But the other person was wearing a gray robe and holding a tangled rattan cane in his hand, which made him look very much like the legendary priest.

Jiang Yi watched the Minotaur performing the sacrifice, but the Minotaur's eyes were fixed on the thin bamboo in the center of the courtyard.

"This is……"

At first, the Minotaur sacrificed that this thin bamboo was a little special, but after a closer look, he found that it was not an ordinary thing, but was cast into a sophisticated confusing formation, making it difficult to see clearly.

But he had a faint feeling that made him feel thrilling, and finally couldn't help asking: "May I ask, Your Majesty, is this thin bamboo a treasure passed down from generation to generation?"

Jiang Yi did not hide it and nodded: "Yes, it is a treasure passed down from generation to generation."

The Minotaur priest took a breath and thought: I didn't expect that a small human tribe not only has a palm-sized mansion, but also has a heritage treasure!

There was not just one minotaur in the room, there were three others. After hearing what was said, they all looked at the palm fire bamboo in the courtyard with burning eyes, not hiding their greed at all.

As one of the large tribes among the Tauren, their Barbarian Stone Tribe has several secret techniques for refining their innate Dharma images, but no inherited treasures.

Therefore, the innate Dharma images of all the powerful Minotaur warriors at the seventh level and above are almost the same. They have long been known to other tribes in the Yinshan Realm, and they have found ways to crack them.

This is also the fundamental reason why the Minotaur has an extremely low status in this world.

You know, an inherited treasure like the Palm Fire Bamboo is not just a treasure, it represents the heritage of a tribe.

Why could powerful tribes like those dominate the entire Yinshan Realm?

Because of the inherited treasure, they can continuously create strong people with different innate (martial) abilities, and they are infinitely powerful.

Tribes like the Minotaur can only rely on a few inherited secret techniques to shape their own Dharma images. There are no secrets left and they can be easily broken.

The situation of the Tauren is similar to that of the human tribes in this world. They are all enslaved because they have no inherited treasures.

But now it’s different. This small human tribe called “Taimang” actually possesses a precious inherited treasure.

Except for the leading Minotaur priest, the other three Minotaur warriors did not hide their greed, but they soon disappeared because they did not dare.

After taking a look at Fulong and Dong Chengyang who were standing silently behind Jiang Yi, the Minotaur felt mixed emotions.

They could never understand why a small Taimang tribe had so many eighth-level powerful people.

Originally, they thought that the Taimang tribe only had one powerful person, Ghost Lord Fang Yue, so they planned to use force to capture Zhuliu City.

But after some inquiries, they discovered that in addition to Fang Yue, there was actually another tribal elder named Xu Heng who had also entered the eighth realm.

Two extremely powerful men could support a huge city in the Yinshan Realm. Their strength should not be underestimated.

However, the Tauren did not change their plan. As a large tribe, they could not retreat just because of two powerful men.

But not long ago, they discovered that there was actually an eighth-level powerful person hidden in this small Zhuliu City.

Moreover, he is a veteran and powerful man, whose strength has reached the peak of the eighth realm, and he is only half a step away from the legendary ninth realm.

Because of this discovery, disagreements arose within the once highly united Tauren tribe.

Some of the Tauren still insisted on the plan of a violent attack, while others advocated a peaceful way to take Zhuliu City.

In the end, the moderate faction gained the upper hand, which led to the trip of the Minotaur priest to Zhuliu City. However, they never expected to see two eighth-level strongmen in Zhuliu City.

Moreover, he was a completely unfamiliar and powerful being who had never appeared in the Yinshan Realm.

The Tauren couldn't help but feel fortunate that they did not take radical measures, otherwise it would be unknown whether they could obtain Zhuliu City, but the Tauren tribe would definitely suffer a heavy blow, and might even be directly reduced to a slave race.

He really couldn't understand why a small human Taimang tribe had five eighth-level powerful people and a heritage treasure.

"Could it be that humans, who have always been regarded as a slave race by the various tribes in the Yinshan Realm, are about to rise up?"

The Minotaur priest was shocked by this idea, and his first thought was to spread the news at all costs and unite with other major tribes to destroy the Taimang tribe.

But he immediately drove the thought out of his mind.

Ultimately, although the status of minotaurs is slightly higher than that of humans, they are all connected by the same fate.

They were all at the bottom of the Yinshan Realm, and were always facing the miserable fate of being enslaved. Even if the Taimang tribe in front of them was wiped out, they, the Tauren, would not gain any benefits.

Instead of working for other big clans, it is better to try to gain some benefits for the Tauren, such as the Zhuliu City in front of us.

"High Priest Thor, why are you interested in this Zhuliu City?" Jiang Yi waved his hand gently, and the wide-open door slowly closed.

The minotaur then reluctantly withdrew his gaze. Hearing this, the four minotaurs looked at each other but did not answer immediately.

Jiang Yi didn't care and continued, "Or is there something in Zhuliu City that you Tauren people urgently need?"

After he finished speaking, High Priest Thor remained affectionate, but the expressions of the three minotaurs behind him were a little unnatural.

"Lord Jiang is too sensitive. The reason we want Zhuliu City is just to open up a new gathering point in this area. After all, the situation of us Tauren in the north is not good. I think Lord Jiang should have heard about it."

Jiang Yi nodded. The situation of the Minotaur in the northern gathering place was indeed not good.

Compared to the cunning and cruel kobolds, tauren are much gentler.

But he is a typical person with strong limbs and simple mind. There are very few wise men like the high priest in front of him.

It is also for this reason that the Tauren became a vassal corps of other major clans.

They were forcibly recruited by various major clans to fight for the interests of other clans. Sometimes, there would even be situations where two ordinary Tauren legions belonging to different camps would kill each other.

Therefore, it is understandable that the Tauren are eager to get rid of the northern gathering place.

But Jiang Yi shook his head gently: "If you can't be frank, then there is no point in talking further."

After saying that, he stood up and walked out.

The other three minotaur warriors immediately became anxious and wanted to forcibly stop Jiang Yi, but they were stopped by the high priest Thor, who only sighed:

"Master Jiang, why do you still ask when you already know the answer? Our two tribes are in similar situations and can be said to share the same fate. We just want to find a way out for the Tauren."

Seeing that Jiang Yi was unmoved and did not pause for a moment, Thor sighed and said, "This matter concerns the secret of my Tauren heritage and cannot be leaked. Why does Lord Jiang have to force me so hard..."

Jiang Yi stopped, turned around and said with a smile: "If I'm not mistaken, you are here for the ancient ruins of Zhuliu City, right?"

The other three minotaur warriors changed their expressions, but High Priest Thor smiled bitterly and acquiesced: "Please help me, Lord Jiang. If you have any conditions, please feel free to ask. As long as we minotaur can do it, we will definitely meet them."

Jiang Yi then turned around and walked back, saying with a smile: "Then we have to have a good talk..."
