Chapter 1316 The Balance is Broken
Mo Ning's sweat-dampened hair still clung to her cheeks, and the blankness in her eyes had gradually faded. Hearing Yin's words, she said, her face pale:
"Great Shaman, I was wrong, please don't take it from me."

Yunxi was eager to understand the situation and didn't want to waste any time. She simply waved her sleeve and sent the person out of the stone house. As for what would happen to the person afterward, it was none of her business. After all, she never showed mercy to those with wicked intentions.

Shuo and Yin dared not utter a word of criticism regarding Yun Xi's actions. They sat quietly in their chairs, not daring to speak rashly. They could tell that the Beast God's envoy in front of them was clearly not a good-natured person.

Having learned about the current situation on the Beast World Continent through Mo Ning's memories, Yun Xi decided to speak:

"Yin, when did Mo Ning's ancestors come to the Golden Python Tribe?"

Yin thought for a moment and then replied:
"It seems to have been more than a thousand years ago, and Mo Ning was the third generation of their lineage."

After listening, Yunxi continued to ask:

"Were any of Mo Ning's ancestors females brought back from outside by orcs?"

"Yes."

"Morning's ancestors taught you how to plant and raise animals, and instructed the orcs on how to build houses, which increased your chances of survival, didn't they?"

"Yes."

"Wasn't it Mo Ning's ancestor who suggested that females should not have to endure the pain of the sacred lake's body transformation? She must have said that females should accept the protection of males, provide assistance, and take on the responsibility of bearing and raising offspring, right?"

Yin's mouth dropped open in astonishment, but in the end, she only managed to utter one word:

"Yes."

Yunxi gave a sarcastic sneer, wondering if this transmigrated woman's brain was bound by foot bindings, bringing that patriarchal ideology to the Beast World Continent.

Perhaps initially, the farming and animal husbandry techniques she brought greatly improved the quality of life for the beastmen, but over time, the drawbacks became apparent, and the beast world continent ran into problems after only three generations.

Yunxi did not deny that entering the agricultural era was wrong, but it was necessary to adapt to local conditions. The environment of the Beast World Continent was not peaceful. The orcs did not have a numerical advantage, and they also had to compete with wild beasts for survival resources.

The transmigrated woman's interference, ignoring the actual situation in the beast world, deprived the females who should have possessed combat power of the opportunity to acquire the ability to transform, causing their bodies to become increasingly fragile. Therefore, when they conceived offspring with female beastmen, they were simply unable to produce strong beastman offspring.

Because the union of two sperm is a two-way selection process, simply put, strong sperm will automatically ignore weak eggs, and when the egg cannot accept strong sperm, it can only automatically downgrade and choose slightly weaker sperm to combine with. This results in the number of children born not only decreasing but also becoming weaker and weaker.

Yunxi sighed and continued to ask:
"A thousand years ago, were the offspring conceived by females able to transform during their infancy?"

Shuo and Yin exchanged a glance, then nodded simultaneously.

Yunxi shook her head speechlessly, then frowned and asked:
"Besides the Golden Python tribe, do the Mo Ning family have descendants in other tribes as well?"

Yin immediately replied:
"Yes, back then, because Mo Ning's great-grandmother knew how to plant and raise animals, she was invited by the chieftains of the eight tribes to guide them in planting and raising animals. During that time, she had offspring with the strongest orcs of the eight tribes, and those children stayed in their respective tribes."

However, all of Moning's great-grandmother's offspring were female. After being taught, they remained in the tribe where their father lived, but they maintained contact with each other and would meet at the annual grand gathering.

Yunxi scoffed and said:

"She can only give birth to females; it is impossible for her to give birth to males."

Shuo tightened his grip on his cane and asked in a deep voice:

"Respected envoy, is it because she taught the orcs planting and breeding that she was punished and unable to breed strong orcs?" Yun Xi sneered.

"This is the explanation passed down from Mo Ning's ancestors."

".yes."

As the clan leader, Shuo has his own perspective on the issue. In fact, he had discovered this rather special situation a long time ago, but he couldn't find a reasonable explanation. Now, through the attitude of the Beast God's messenger, he seems to have grasped the key point.

Yin reacted even faster. While the clan leader and the envoy were talking, he had already connected the dots between what he had heard from the envoy and himself. He then gasped and looked up sharply at Yun Xi, saying:
"My lord, is the reduction and disappearance of the Sacred Lake related to Moning's ancestors? Because she said that females should not suffer the pain of transformation, female orcs gradually lost their ability to transform and their bodies became weaker and weaker. Even if they gave birth to male cubs, the cubs could not transform on their own during their infancy and could only obtain the power to transform through the Sacred Lake."

However, the original purpose of the sacred lake was to give those weak cubs a chance to transform, so that they could have a chance to survive.

Currently, almost all the cubs rely on the Sacred Lake for their transformation power, which is why the Sacred Lake is shrinking rapidly and will disappear once its power is exhausted.

Yunxi smiled after hearing this and said:

"It seems you're not stupid after all; you've figured out the reason why the sacred lake disappeared on your own."

Yin opened his mouth, and after a long while, he said:

"We made a mistake; that unknown plant wasn't the culprit behind the disappearance of the sacred lake?"

Yunxi said calmly:
"That's not entirely true. I couldn't make an accurate judgment before seeing that plant. However, its appearance conveniently obscured the real reason, leading you to make the wrong judgment, which is why the Beast God sent me here."

To avoid trouble, Yunxi decided to continue using the Beast God's name to get things done. She figured that as long as the problem was solved, the Beast God wouldn't blame her.

Shuo sighed and said:

"Your Excellency, what should we do next?"

Yunxi thought for a moment and said:

"Once the other high priests arrive, I will learn more about the situation before and after the sacred lake disappeared, and then decide how to solve the current predicament. I need to prepare some potions to improve the females of the tribe. You can arrange for the orcs to gather these plants."

Yunxi chose to use what was available, raising her hand to show Yin the illusory images of several plants.

Knowing the importance of the task, Yin immediately took out a leather scroll from the leather pouch at his waist, carefully wrote down all the plants Yunxi needed with a quill pen, and solemnly said:

"Your Excellency, I will send people to pick them now. You may visit my pharmacy first, where I have collected most of the medicinal plants and animals."

Yunxi nodded in agreement, and the clan chief Shuo, who was standing to the side, also stood up:

"Your Excellency, I will arrange separate accommodations for you."

Yunxi waved her hand and refused:
"You don't need to make any special arrangements, just point me to an open space."

Although Shuo did not understand Yunxi's intention, he still respectfully agreed and personally led Yunxi to the large square in the clan where the covenant ceremony was held.

Yunxi nodded in satisfaction as she looked at the ten acres of open land. She then raised her hand and threw out her capsule magic house, which appeared out of thin air as a two-courtyard house, attracting the attention of the Golden Python Tribe people.
