Aztec Civilization: Destiny to Conquer America!

Chapter 2061 - 1505: This Cup of Cocoa, to the Future of the Gummy People!

"Young Divine Revelation Prophet! The location of the Great Sand River fief is north of the wilderness of the Northern Tekos Tribes, almost at the end of the world. If the location of this fief cannot be changed... then the area of this fief must at least be as large as the Cloud Mountain City Valley. Moreover, we, the Cloud Mountain Tribes, hope to take more tribespeople with us! Six thousand is truly too few. You must know, the Cloud Mountain City, one city, one fortress, still has nearly twenty thousand tribespeople, all of whom are kin of the same ancestor...""Honorable Elder of Yun Gushan, then according to your thoughts, how many of the Cloud Mountain Divine Descendants hope to take the Cloud Mountain Tribe and relocate westward to join the Kingdom of the Lake?"

"Ancestor’s blessing! At least double, twelve thousand people! This is not just my thought, but the baseline discussed collectively by the Cloud Mountain Divine Descendants before I left the city... Also, three honorable nobility titles are really too few, not enough for all the divine descendants to distribute. We hope to obtain five honorable nobility titles! In addition, since we have to reclaim land on the edge of the Northern Tekos wilderness and rebuild villages and city-states, we need the kingdom’s food support for the first three years of reclamation! And after three years, we will pay a tenth of our tribute to the kingdom, and another tenth to the Kingdom Priesthood. Yes, a total of twenty percent, just like the Otomi People..."

"..."

In the Prophet’s tent, mysterious symbols and banners together surrounded the strange hexagram image. The two elder priests of divine authority sat cross-legged on the black and white yin-yang fish cotton blanket, conducting a "divine spirit meeting."

Xiulote sat on the black dot of the white yin-yang fish, near the Chief Divine’s emblem. He wore an extremely formal Obsidian Feather Crown, inlaid with two red gemstones like the eyes of divine spirits, with a sun patterned obsidian pendant, appearing solemn and dignified, very heavy. At this moment, his eyes were lowered, his expression serene, listening patiently to the conditions of the Mixtec Elder Priest, like a generous and tolerant "Priest King."

"Powerful War God Huitzilopo witnesses! Our Cloud Mountain Tribes will devotedly worship Him as the only Chief Divine, demoting the traditional Rain God to a Subordinate God. All the Rain God priests will vow to serve the greater Chief Divine. Those unwilling will be relieved of their priestly positions... Moreover, as per the agreement, we will send young nobility offspring to join the Kingdom’s Divine Revelation University, to learn the Chief Divine Scriptures and ’Divine Revelation Teaching.’ In the future, all succeeding priests and nobility must have the experience of studying at the Divine Power University!"

"Of course, according to the previous negotiation agreement, the fief’s priests and nobility heritage remains decided by our own division, enjoying autonomous rights! To resist the harassment of the Canine Descendants from the more northeastern wilderness, the fief army will be independently formed and managed, but will obey the Kingdom of the Lake’s summons during external wars..."

"Yes! This is all of it! Equivalent-sized fief, twelve thousand tribespeople, five honorable nobility titles, three years of reclamation support... plus a twenty percent tribute ratio, and the autonomy of the fief!"

The Elder Priest of Cloud Mountain City, Yun Gushan, sat on the white dot of the black yin-yang fish. He wore the Feather Crown of the Cloud Rain God, Chaac, engraved with golden tiger claws, and decorated with Jaguar bones. His old eyebrows gently quivered, and the cautious eyes beneath them carefully observed the expression of the "Divine Revelation Prophet." Then, his mouth reciting a spell softly opened and closed, quietly lowering his voice, making every effort to humble himself, explaining the city’s demands.

"Revered Divine Revelation Prophet! Our Cloud Mountain City Tribes still have two years of grain in reserve. If we abandon some of the elderly and weak, we might even persist longer. Yet the city’s nobility actually doesn’t trust the god-king who wages wars unprovoked with cruel campaigns. The nobility do not believe the god-king’s promises, fearing the fate of the Tlaxcala Tribes might befall them..."

"Although we still have considerable grain, our willingness to abandon the ancestral land and surrender the fief is largely out of respect and trust for you! Your divine nature and brilliance, which we know quite a lot about, is something we can trust. In reality, your return to the Lake Capital City to hand over the alliance inheritance to your offspring, dedicated to the service of the War God Chief Divine, truly exceeded our expectations, and has earned our great admiration for you!"

"..."

The Mixtec Elder looked sincerely at Xiulote, who remained silent. Being most attuned to the disloyal vassalage concerning the Mexica Alliance, the Mixtec Tribes always had a profound understanding of the alliance politics.

Three years ago, the power struggle between the Mexica Alliance and the Kingdom of the Lake intensified. The Mixtec Tribes had thought that the "barbaric" Mexica Alliance would once again play out a cruel royal civil war, reenacting the tradition of the Mexica Royal Family!

But how events unfolded was unexpected. Prince Xiulote of the Kingdom of the Lake actually returned to the alliance, forfeiting his inheritance rights. As the temporary reconciliation of the two alliance royal families occurred, the Mixtec Tribes, who were initially just watching, suddenly faced impending doom. The mobilized great army of the alliance then advanced southward without hesitation, launching a "Divine War" aimed at thoroughly conquering the Cloud People and engulfing the Cloud Rain God...

"Respected Divine Revelation Prophet! You are a truly devout divine descendant, also a prophet who can foresee the future. You are a ’cloud-borne Jaguar,’ stripped of the Jaguar’s greedy ferocity, leaving only the holy purity of the cloud!"
