In the next moment, Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows. Without moving his body, a scorching hot Qi and blood burst out from his body and merged with the pegasus's golden flames.
Boom!
The golden flames seemed to have obtained enough fuel as they suddenly flared up. It was as if ice water was poured into a pot of boiling oil. The raging flames soared into the sky, connecting the sky and the earth, turning the surroundings golden. The little pegasus took the opportunity to flap its wings, leaving behind a phantom in the sky as it rushed towards Xiao Chen.
Roar!
An invisible wave was transmitted into Xiao Chen's mind. "This bastard wants to enslave me!"
The golden pegasus retracted its wings and came to the back of Xiao Chen. Its golden eyes flickered as it looked at the middle-aged man in white with great fear.
Xiao Chen gently stroked the pegasus's golden mane to calm it down. Then, he lowered his head and looked at the battle envoy with a solemn expression. Even without the pegasus neighing, Xiao Chen had already figured out the battle envoy's intention.
Not only Xiao Chen and the three elders, there were also some elders in the tribe. They smelled something unusual and all of them had a solemn expression on their faces. This was a feeling brought about by decades of killing in the wilderness.
"I didn't expect the Shang Nation's battle envoy to come again. Xiao Chen is flattered. I wonder why the battle envoy has come. Could it be that the Shang Nation has issued an edict?"
Xiao Chen didn't show any signs of abnormality before falling out with the battle envoy.
Seeing that Xiao Chen had casually saved the pegasus from his frosty Battle Qi, the middle-ranked battle envoy Tie Mo wasn't angry. Instead, he said calmly, "The rumors in the Great Wilderness are indeed true. Chief Xiao's strength is comparable to that of the older generation's warriors!"
"Xiao Chen is just a kid. It's just an empty title given by the people of the Great Wilderness. It's not worth mentioning. All he did was kill a peak Blood Refining Realm foreign race warrior!"
Xiao Chen calmed himself down and said again, "Battle envoy, please enter the palace. Xiao Chen is thousands of miles away from the Great Wilderness. Please forgive me for not welcoming you!"
"Forget it!"
Battle envoy Tie Mo waved his hand. At this moment, he didn't hide his greed for the pegasus at all. He glanced at the people of the Gu Yuan Tribe with a faint smile. He didn't care about Xiao Chen's words or Xiao Chen's battle strength at all. Finally, his gaze landed on Xiao Chen and said, "This seat has come again to discuss something with Chief Xiao. There's no need to enter the palace. I've already waited for you for five days. It's better for us to settle this matter as soon as possible. This seat's trip to the West Palace is not in vain. Besides, this is also for the Gu Yuan Tribe!"
Here it comes!
The three elders raised their eyebrows and looked indignant. They didn't expect this Battle Envoy to be so shameless.
Xiao Chen also frowned and said in a deep voice, "May I know what the Battle Envoy wants?"
Tie Mo glanced at Xiao Chen and the others again and smiled. He said, "As the captain of the Iron Hoof Tribe, I've been stationed at the battlefield of the Blood Clan all year round. This time, I've received the chief's order to patrol the various tribes in the Giant Rock Valley. I didn't expect to see such a talented warrior like Chief Xiao. You even single-handedly annihilated a small foreign race tribe. You're very much to my liking. Therefore, I've come to give your Gu Yuan Tribe a chance to become a subordinate of the Iron Hoof Tribe. I'll also give you, Xiao Chen, a chance to submit to me and follow me to conquer the Great Wilderness. At that time, you might even have a chance to leave the Iron Hoof Tribe and enter the Great Wilderness to fight against the Hundred Tribes!"
What!
The clansmen of the Gu Yuan Tribe were in an uproar when they heard Tie Mo's words. They were shocked by Tie Mo's words and only thought of becoming a subordinate of the Iron Hoof Tribe.
Damn it!
The three elders looked at each other. As expected, this Battle Envoy had ill intentions. In front of so many people of the Gu Yuan Tribe, he had been ambiguous, causing the people below to be confused and thinking that they could join the middle-tier Iron Horseshoe Division.
"What?
Does Chief Xiao have anything else to say? "
Tie Mo said, "You have to understand that not everyone has the opportunity to become my subordinate. Your Gu Yuan Tribe is so poor and small that it might be wiped out by natural or man-made disasters. If you submit to me, I will be your backer. Just like that little bastard of the Wu Yuan Tribe, he wouldn't dare to cause trouble here even if he had the guts!"
"If you submit to me, I will be your Gu Yuan Tribe's protective umbrella. In Giant Rock Valley, except for a few individual human tribes, your Gu Yuan Tribe won't have to care about other tribes. Otherwise, you have to understand that even if you are a genius, it will be a waste if you don't grow up. You won't be able to protect your tribe!"
"Also, I am a good friend of the Ingot Elephant Tribe. On that day, the Chief ordered the human tribes to stop fighting among themselves, so that the Ingot Elephant Tribe could put aside their grudges against your tribe and focus on exterminating the alien tribes. Without me, do you think you can resist the revenge of the Ingot Elephant Tribe? You are really ignorant and ridiculous."
The three elders and the others were shocked. At this moment, the Battle Envoy's words were full of hidden meanings and hints. Not only did he mention that the Gu Yuan Tribe was in danger, but he also seemed to know what the Gu Yuan Tribe had been through these days. He also pointed out the grudges between the Gu Yuan Tribe and the Ingot Elephant Tribe. His meaning was very clear. He wanted Xiao Chen and the others to realize that their tribe's foundation was still shallow and that they shouldn't work together. The lives of thousands of people in the tribe were in his hands, so submitting to Tie Mo was the right choice.
Unable to suppress the anger in his heart, the Second Elder finally said, "Battle Envoy, you are wrong. Since the Gu Yuan Tribe was established, we have always followed the will of our ancestors and followed the orders of the Shang Nation's Patriarch. We didn't dare to slack off at all. Recently, we even received the order from our Lord and sent our elite soldiers to the Great Wilderness to exterminate the remnants of the alien tribes that brought chaos to the Great Wilderness. Moreover, there is no grudge between the Gu Yuan Tribe and the Ingot Elephant Tribe. The battle on the platform has already been canceled, so why would there be a fight to the death?"
"Presumptuous!"
All of a sudden, Battle Envoy Tiemo stepped forward. His icy aura swept across the surroundings like a gust of wind. It was a bone-chilling intent that could even freeze the Battle Qi in people's bodies. Except for Xiao Chen, all the others turned pale. Some of them even had a layer of frost on their bodies. Tiemo's eyes were full of disdain.
He didn't conceal his majestic momentum at all. Then, he flew up into the air and glanced around before slowly saying, "I will not beat around the bush. This time, I'm here to ask your Gu Yuan Tribe to surrender to me and become my tribe. Your entire tribe will become my servants. I pity your remote tribe and will give you a chance to survive. There are endless natural and man-made disasters in the Great Wilderness. What are you hesitating for? I, the captain of the Iron Hoof Tribe, am a powerful martial artist who is only one step away from becoming a Heavenly Building Great Sage. Xiao Chen, why don't you surrender to me?"
"Kneel down!"
"Sign a slave contract with me and become my servant obediently. Otherwise, the name of Gu Yuan Tribe will not be left on the clan stele of the Iron Hoof Tribe."
