บท 2337: The Gap

As for why Fang Heng focused solely on the Wood tribe...

On one hand, it was to consolidate strength, but more importantly, it was to stoke friction between the Wood tribe and the Leaf tribe.

Moreover, Fang Heng was more eager now to meet with the Root tribe.

The Federation had dealings with all four major tribes, including the tree spirits, using spatial ores for material exchanges.

Compared to the other two tribes, cooperation with the Root tribe has been relatively pleasant.

In the dense forest of the Inner World' agreed upon in advance, Fang Heng met with the Wood tribe elder, Pavao.

A few days earlier, upon hearing that Fang Heng needed branches from the sacred tree, the Root tribe had expressed a desire to meet Fang Heng in person and discuss cooperation.
