Reincarnated as a Divine Tree-Chapter 152Vol. 1 - - New Ideas
Ji Yang did not dwell on it too much.
Ever since he awakened Chen Qingcheng’s spirit, he had been observing the child's growth closely.
Through careful examination, Ji Yang noticed that Chen Qingcheng’s development was several times faster than that of an ordinary infant. More importantly, his intelligence was awakening much earlier.
At this rate, it wouldn’t take many years for these new clan members to mature.
This was precisely why Ji Yang had temporarily set aside his deductions and conserved his spiritual energy to awaken the spirits of many children.
But as he pondered, he sighed inwardly.
Awakening their intelligence so early—was it truly a blessing or a curse for these infants?
For the clan, it was undoubtedly a good thing. After all, they were not yet strong and desperately needed fresh blood to reinforce their power.
The faster they grew, the quicker the clan would flourish, especially in a world as unstable as this.
Yet, for those whose intelligence had not yet fully formed, it might mean the loss of a portion of their childhood, forcing them to participate in the clan’s development far too soon.
That was not necessarily a good thing.
Ji Yang did not dwell on the thought. When the clansmen brought their children to the ancestral hall with joyous hearts, praying for blessings, they had likely already made their choice.
Growth always came with a price. In the grand scheme of things, the current sacrifice was not too heavy.
A beautiful childhood could only exist if supported by a strong clan.
Ji Yang’s gaze shifted downward to check his deduction points. Over the past month, he had gained only a handful, but he still had a decent reserve.
Now, however, his vitality was running a little low. He was still far from achieving the tenfold deduction he desired, and it would take several more months of accumulation.

"Wolf! A giant green wolf!"
"Everyone, stay alert!"
"Quick, notify the clan leader and elders! Tell them the green wolf is approaching!"
At the entrance of the clan’s territory, two guards spotted a massive green wolf striding toward them from the distance and immediately raised the alarm.
Before long, numerous clan members emerged, armed with blades.
Their expressions were steady, unshaken by fear. Without hesitation, they formed a battle formation, preparing to fight the approaching beast.
This was their territory—how could they allow a fierce creature to roam unchecked? Especially when their clan’s divine tree stood behind them.

Even though the green wolf was massive and exuded an imposing aura, none of them wavered.
"Wait! There’s someone on its back!"
Just as they were about to strike, one of the clansmen suddenly called out.
The others quickly turned to look.
"It’s Brother Qingyu!"
A shout of joy rang out, and as the green wolf drew closer, many recognized the familiar figure.
"It really is Brother Qingyu!"
"What’s going on? Where did that wolf come from?"
"The clan leader is here—make way!"
As Chen Xingzhen arrived at the gates, Chen Qingyu had already leaped off the green wolf’s back. Seeing the enormous beast before him, Chen Xingzhen’s eyes flickered with surprise.
He had only sent Qingyu to scout the mountains. How had he ended up bringing back what appeared to be the Wolf King?
"You’re saying this green wolf… eats grass?"
After listening to Chen Qingyu’s explanation, the well-experienced Chen Xingzhen still looked slightly bewildered. At the same time, he caught a glint of disdain in the green wolf’s eyes.
The expression seemed to say—
"Wolves can’t eat grass? How ignorant."
Chen Xingzhen was momentarily speechless. This wolf was truly an oddity.
But after witnessing it graze with their own eyes, all skepticism vanished. This wolf really did eat grass.
Upon learning that the green wolf was only at the early Body Tempering Realm, the gathered clansmen were even more astonished. Its size alone was far greater than that of Blood Coagulation Realm green wolves—how could it possibly be so weak?
Yet, after testing it, they found that not only was the wolf merely at the Body Tempering Realm, but it was also at the early stage, a classic case of all show and no substance.
Was this truly the Wolf King?
Under the skeptical gazes of the clansmen, the green wolf abruptly halted its chewing, its pupils deepening. A long, resounding howl escaped its throat, exuding an air of dominance.
The display left the crowd momentarily stunned, but they quickly accepted the situation.
"Clan leader, my idea is this—using this Wolf King to tame the other green wolves," Chen Qingyu proposed.
Chen Xingzhen did not respond immediately, but Chen Tianlu, standing nearby, hesitated.
"Qingyu, isn’t that too dangerous? Those green wolves are fierce beasts, strong and difficult to tame. If anything goes wrong, our clansmen’s safety will be at risk."
Many nodded in agreement.
Wolves were cunning creatures, unpredictable in nature. There was no telling whether these green wolves might turn aggressive.
"I think it’s worth a try," Chen Tianyu interjected after some thought. "With the divine tree protecting our clan, taming these green wolves would be a huge advantage."
Chen Xingzhen remained silent, deep in thought.
Last time, they had slain many green wolves, but the pack still remained—and they were not weak.
If the wolves attempted to reclaim territory in the Chaotic Burial Mountain, the clan would have no choice but to eradicate them completely.
But if they could be tamed, the benefits would be substantial. Their sheer size and endurance would make them excellent mounts, far surpassing horses.
Although the clan had acquired horses, the road between the Chaotic Burial Mountain and Yong’an City was rough. Even on horseback, travel was slow, and encounters with wild beasts could easily unsettle the animals.
But the green wolves, having lived in these mountains for years, were different. They had adapted to the terrain and had no fear of predators. Their overall endurance and resilience were far superior.
And in battle, they could provide valuable combat power.
Yet, even with the Wolf King’s presence, taming their wild nature would be no easy feat—especially since the other green wolves did not eat grass.
Chen Xingzhen hesitated.
The idea was tempting, and if successful, the clan would gain a powerful advantage.
After a moment of contemplation, he made his decision.
"Very well. Since you brought this wolf back, you will be responsible for this endeavor," he said to Chen Qingyu. "But you must ensure the safety of our clansmen."
Chen Qingyu nodded in agreement.
The others did not object and instead looked forward to the prospect. After all, riding wolves would be far more impressive than riding horses.

What? Become a traitor?
When Chen Qingyu explained what he wanted the green wolf to do, the beast shook its head violently, a look of firm resistance in its eyes.
Seeing its refusal, Chen Qingyu pressed on.
"It seems you can’t hide the fact that you eat grass."
Faced with this threat, the green wolf remained unmoved, its determination growing stronger.
Yes, it ate grass—but it was still the Wolf King of the pack! Even if it had no real strength to back that title.
How could it possibly betray its own kind?
