Two days later, the tribe's soldiers who had gone out to battle returned. The cyan earthen jars filled with human remains added to the sadness of the tribe. The Human Tribe had fought hundreds of battles in the Desolate Land, and there had to be someone to defend the land beneath their feet and the women and children behind them. This was a test of blood and fire, and it was the glory that generations of the Human Tribe had sworn to defend with their lives.
It had only been a short dozen days, but the returning soldiers felt as if a lifetime had passed. The familiar city in front of them, the cyan houses, and the people gave them a sense of warmth. Perhaps it would not be long before their Gu Yuan Tribe would become the enemy of the entire world, and they would have no place in the Desolate Land.
The tribulation of the tribe had given them a head-on blow. In the Desolate Land, the strong were respected, and the powerful could summon clouds and rain with a flip of their hands. Their Gu Yuan Tribe was not powerful at the moment, and a mere Battle Envoy had already caused the entire tribe to panic. More than 170,000 tribesmen were shaken.
The three-story stone tower.
Under Xiao Chen's instructions, they simply renovated the stone hall. It looked very crude, the sharp edges and corners of the hastily built huge stones had yet to be polished smooth. However, they didn't care about all of this.
In the quiet hall, all the Blood Refining Realm warriors of the Gu Yuan Tribe were seated. Even the guest elder, the five Qiu brothers, who were about to leave, were present. No one mentioned the sudden disappearance of the five figures in the tribe, as if they had never existed.
After two days, and with the return of the tribe's tribesmen who had gone out to battle, the people of the tribe had a trace of support. Even though they knew that even if the entire tribe mobilized all its troops, they would not be able to defeat the Iron Hoof Tribe, they still felt some comfort in their hearts with the presence of their own tribe's soldiers.
"I believe everyone already knows what happened in the tribe a few days ago!"
Xiao Chen's eyes wandered, and he calmly looked at everyone below him. His gaze was focused on the Blood Refining Realm warriors who had integrated into the tribe not long ago.
As soon as Xiao Chen's voice fell, everyone fell silent. The middle-grade Iron Hoof Tribe was like a huge mountain pressing on everyone's hearts. This was not just the difference between a middle-grade and a low-grade Iron Hoof Tribe. Above the strong, a Heavenly Building Realm warrior was already an immortal on the land. He could transform the world into his own body, and he would not be considered weak in the Desolate Land. He could walk in the air, and he was truly a powerful expert who could trample on the earth.
And there was more than one such Heavenly Building Realm warrior in the Iron Hoof Tribe. Facing such a powerful warrior, Battle Envoy Tie Mo was nothing. Now that the enmity between Tie Mo and the Iron Hoof Tribe had been established, it was certain that Tie Mo would slander the Gu Yuan Tribe as traitors of the Human Clan, colluding with the Alien Race. In this way, the entire tribe would become the enemy of the whole world, and the Iron Hoof Tribe would completely crush the traitors of the Human Clan.
As for whether the people in the Desolate Land believed Tie Mo's side of the story, it was no longer important. What was important was that the Iron Hoof Tribe ruled over hundreds of thousands of miles of the Desolate Land, and thousands of human combat divisions had surrendered to them. The order of the Iron Hoof Tribe was an order to all the human combat divisions under their command. If the Gu Yuan Tribe was accused of colluding with the Alien Race, they would not be given a chance to refute, and could only accept their fate obediently.
Even if they knew that there was a secret behind this matter, the Iron Hoof Tribe would never admit that it was their own Battle Envoy who had seized the Gu Yuan Tribe's territory by force and slandered them. The only solution was to wipe out everything in a swift and decisive manner. This was the law of power that had existed in the Desolate Land for countless years.
"Leader, I, Old Shi, don't know what kind of bullsh * t Battle Envoy he is. If I met such a treacherous person, I would smash him into a meat pie with my hammer."
Shi Ya could not hold his temper anymore. He yelled in the hall, "Leader, I, Old Shi, will do whatever you say. I will listen to everything you say."
No one paid attention to Shi Ya's words. They all lowered their heads. At this moment, the hatred between the Gu Yuan Tribe and the Iron Hoof Tribe was already set in stone. Tie Mo would not let it go so easily. They could only pray that the Iron Hoof Tribe behind him could be excluded. But was this even possible?
Every member of the tribe was shaking their head.
The human combat divisions under their rule had colluded with the Alien Race, and this was discovered by the Battle Envoys who were patrolling in different areas. All of this was within Tie Mo's calculations. Just for a trace of greed, he would destroy a tribe.
In the face of such an enemy, the Gu Yuan Tribe might become the enemy of all the human battalions in the entire Giant Rock Valley in the next moment. This was without considering the direct forces of the Iron Hoof Tribe. All of this was too far away, and there was an insurmountable gap between them.
"Leader, is there no other way? Can we move the tribe away from the territory of the Iron Hoof Tribe and attach to another middle-rank tribe?" Elder Xue Sha said hesitantly. But a moment later, he smiled bitterly.
Only a middle-rank combat division could resist the attack of a middle-rank tribe. Even if they could move the entire tribe, the closest middle-rank combat division to the Iron Hoof Tribe was seven or eight hundred thousand li away. Along the way, there were endless ancient forests, dangerous mountains, and ferocious beasts in the Great Swamp. It was likely that the Gu Yuan Tribe would be destroyed by the Iron Hoof Tribe before they reached their destination.
But then again, which middle-rank tribe could accept a tribe that was guilty of colluding with the Alien Race? They would not want to offend a combat division of the same strength for a small tribe.
Xiao Chen said calmly, "My Gu Yuan Tribe is just a small remote tribe. We have been here for eight hundred years. Generations of our people have lived on this land for thousands of li. We have never even taken a step out of the Giant Rock Valley. Moreover, we are very far away from other middle-rank combat divisions. Even if we move the entire tribe, I think Tie Mo will not let us go. I believe that in order to please this Battle Envoy, many human tribes in the Giant Rock Valley will be willing to be ordered by him to encircle our Gu Yuan Tribe!"
Xue Sha let out a long sigh. They were all discerning people. The Gu Yuan Tribe was just a small remote tribe, but they had offended a Battle Envoy. At this moment, for them, it was no longer important whether the Gu Yuan Tribe had colluded with the Alien Race or not. What was important was that they had a chance to build a relationship with the Battle Envoy.
"What are you afraid of?
Our Gu Yuan Tribe has lived up to the will of our ancestors and did not dishonor the will of our ancestors. Now that we have suffered such a disaster, this is an injustice to our Gu Yuan Tribe. Since this is the case, if the saber in my hand can chop off the heads of the Alien Race, I can also chop off the heads of those who have slandered our tribe in order to wash away the glory of our tribe! "
Lin Shan roared. At this moment, he had become somewhat deranged.
"That's right!
Since Tribe Leader has no way out, we are not afraid to fight. Our Gu Yuan Tribe has lived up to our ancestors and did not dishonor the glory of our ancestors. There will be a day when our Gu Yuan Tribe will seek justice! "
The other Blood Refining Realm warriors in the main hall also became irritable. They had fought fiercely in the Great Desolate Jade Tribe. They had never thought that they would be treated like this in the end. Anger was burning in their chests.
