At this moment, the space in front of the stronghold seemed to be locked. The soldiers of the Moon Wolf Division were completely stunned by the surging momentum before them. The entire stronghold was shrouded in panic.
Rumble!
Suddenly, an ear-piercing grinding sound rang out. The 15-zhang-tall stronghold gate slowly opened, and an old man walked out. Behind him, the five chiliarchs followed him out of the stronghold without any weapons.
At this moment, the mountain wall behind them was already filled with countless elderly, women, and children. Their eyes were filled with anticipation and fear as they looked at the army of tigers and wolves before them!
"As a lowly tribe, you failed to recognize the fate of your tribe and attempted to resist the heavenly might of your superior tribe with your meager strength. You have committed a grave sin. The chief of the Moon Wolf Tribe, Yue Xiang, is willing to accept the punishment of your superior tribe in exchange for your mercy and allow the bloodline of the Moon Wolf Tribe to continue. In the future, the Moon Wolf Division is willing to respect the Ancient Yuan Division and offer endless tributes!"
"I hope that the Ancient Yuan Division will be merciful and allow the Moon Wolf Tribe to continue!
Yue Xiang is willing to atone for his sins with his death and bear the sin of disrespecting the Ancient Yuan Division! "
The old man came to a distance of 60 zhangs away from the stronghold. He prostrated himself on both knees and kowtowed with his head on the ground. He held a bronze sword with both hands and shouted.
The five chiliarchs behind him also prostrated themselves on the ground. In the face of the Ancient Yuan Division, the Moon Wolf Tribe had submitted!
"Please, Shang Country Battalion, have mercy. Yue Xiang is willing to bear all the sins alone. Please, Shang Country, on account that Moon Wolf Battalion is a fellow human, and that there are many women and children in the clan, spare Moon Wolf Battalion!"
"Patriarch!"
In the stronghold behind him, the soldiers of the Moon Wolf Division, including the elderly and women, all exclaimed in shock. Taking a deep breath, the old man suddenly exuded an aura of decline, silencing the exclamations of the clansmen behind him. Once again, he kowtowed to the ground, expressing his submission to the Ancient Yuan Division.
Up in the air, Xiao Chen looked at everything in front of him. All of this was very similar. Once, in his tribe, there had been a similar old man who had experienced the same thing. In the Desolate Land, for the sake of the tribe's inheritance, there had never been a lack of people bowing to him. This was all because they were weak and helpless.
In the past, the Guyuan Tribe had been like this. However, after countless battles of blood and fire, the blood and flesh of the tribe's clansmen had been scattered across the Great Wilderness. At this moment, the Guyuan Tribe already had the power to control the life and death of other tribes.
"Approved!"
In the void, the corners of Xiao Chen's mouth curled up slightly as he spoke in an indifferent tone. He had agreed to the Moon Wolf Battle Tribe leader Yue Xiang's request.
"Thank you, Shang Bang tribe, for your kindness!"
Yue Xiang staggered to his feet and turned around slightly to look at the tribe behind him. He opened his mouth wide and a trace of reluctance appeared in his eyes. He gripped his sword tightly and swung it towards his neck.
"No!"
Boom!
A ray of light shot down from the sky and the old man was immediately sent flying several meters away. However, the power was very gentle and did not cause any harm to the old man.
Clang!
Then, a blue ray of light shot out from the old man's hand and sank into a boulder beside him. It was the bronze sword that the old man had been holding.
"Tribe leader!"
The five chiliarchs of the Moon Wolf Battle Tribe immediately came forward to help the old man up.
"The Moon Wolf Battle Tribe has accepted the mandate of heaven. The tribe leader's crime does not warrant death!"
In the void, Xiao Chen's voice came again. There was no sadness or joy in his voice, but it brought an invisible pressure to the people of the Moon Wolf Battle Tribe. This was because the life and death of the entire Moon Wolf Battle Tribe was decided by this young man.
"Ao Shan is tyrannical and dominates our territory. He dares to bully our fellow humans without any scruples, but when facing the alien races, he is as timid as a mouse and ignores the righteousness of the Human Race. Today, we, the Ancient Yuan Fortune Forging Tribe, have inherited the providence of the Human Race and wish to save the thousands of races in our territory from disaster and bring prosperity to the Human Race!"
"Since the Moon Wolf Battle Tribe has accepted the mandate of heaven and submitted to the Guyuan War Tribe, from today onwards, the Moon Wolf Battle Tribe will recruit three thousand human combat masters and four chiliarchs. They will be led by the tribe leader of the Moon Wolf Tribe to join the Guyuan War Tribe!"
"What? Does the Moon Wolf Battle Tribe have any objections?"
Seeing that the Moon Wolf Battle Tribe was still immersed in the atmosphere and had yet to react, Ding Shan suddenly shouted, causing everyone to stagger.
"The Moon Wolf Battle Tribe will obey the order of the kingdom. Subordinate Yue Xiang is willing to lead the combat masters under his command and follow the kingdom to conquer Ao Shan!"
Yue Xiang hurriedly bowed and agreed.
Recruiting Combat Masters was a decision that had been made at the very beginning of the discussion. Firstly, even though the human combat divisions were weak, they still had their uses as cannon fodder. As the saying went, when there were enough ants, they could even bite an elephant to death. Once the number of Combat Masters in the human combat divisions increased, it would be a huge threat to the Ao Shan Army.
Secondly, the three ten-thousand-strong combat masters of the Guyuan War Tribe had been conquering the Great Mang Wasteland, and their main force was heading straight for the central region of Fallen Dragon Territory. This exposed the rear of the combat masters to the eyes of the other combat divisions, so they had to mobilize all the combat masters they had subdued along the way. This was to ensure the safety of the conquering combat masters, and at the same time, to make the newly subdued combat divisions cautious and cautious!
North Road Battle Masters.
In five days' time, Shi Ya and Mu Wuya led the ten thousand combat masters under their command and eight thousand soldiers from their subordinate combat divisions to conquer the five thousand li of Great Mang Wasteland.
Along the way, they had subdued a total of eighty-two human combat divisions. At this moment, the number of combat masters in the north road expedition had reached an astonishing sixty thousand. They were all combat masters from the tribes they had subdued along the way.
Hong long long!
In a valley that was shaped like a crescent moon, the sound of explosions of Battle Qi could be heard, mixed with the sounds of shouting and killing.
The scorching sun hung high in the sky, but a faint chill flashed through the valley. A blazing blood energy distorted the air in the valley, making it scorching hot.
The ground was dyed red with blood, and a thick stench of blood spread out from the valley. At this moment, a large stronghold in the valley was surrounded by countless combat masters. Some of the combat masters had already killed until their eyes were as red as blood.
In the stronghold, there were endless screams and wails. There were people who wanted to rush out of the stronghold and escape into the depths of the Great Mang Wasteland Forest. However, this short distance of a hundred zhang had become a natural chasm, a path of death!
"Reporting to Battle Envoy, all the combat masters and martial artists who dared to resist the heavenly might of the Shangguan Nation have been killed. Only the old, the weak, the women, and the children are left. Does Battle Envoy have any other orders?"
Suddenly, a figure rushed out of the stronghold from within the blood mist. There was still a thick stench of blood on his body. He arrived in front of Shi Ya and Mu Wuya and knelt down to ask for instructions.
This Blood Refining Realm martial artist was the clan leader of a vassal combat division. Not only that, there were several combat masters from the vassal combat divisions fighting in the stronghold.
Along the way, the three ten thousand combat masters of the Gu Yuan Combat Division were like a hot knife through butter. Wherever they pointed their weapons, the human combat divisions along the way all submitted to them, crawling on the ground and begging for their last breaths to survive.
Of course, there were still some human combat divisions who did not know how to appreciate kindness. They wanted to test whether the Gu Yuan Combat Division really had the guts to start a massacre. However, there were some things that the Gu Yuan Combat Division did not even need to do personally. They only needed to give an order and tens of thousands of people would desperately carry them out.
The mountain valley in front of him was like this. He believed that in this Fallen Dragon Ridge, this battalion in front of him might not be the only one with such courage.
In the valley, the name of this human combat division was no longer important. From this moment on, this human combat division had completely disappeared from the Great Mang Wasteland.
"Chiliarchs, thank you for your hard work."
Mu Wuya gestured for the chiliarch to stand up. At this moment, the sounds of fighting in the stronghold had almost completely disappeared. Instead, the screams and moans of women could be heard. They naturally knew what the situation in the stronghold was like.
Just as Shi Ya and Mu Wuya thought, the soldiers of the vassal combat divisions had not only killed all the martial artists in the stronghold, but they had also slaughtered all the men in the entire tribe. At this moment, the only people left in the stronghold were some young women.
In the Great Mang Wasteland, young women were also a resource that all the large tribes fought over. After all, the survival of a tribe was inseparable from the expansion of population.
"This time, this human combat division is like an egg hitting a rock. They have failed to recognize the will of the heavens. The soldiers under your command have also suffered some losses when attacking this human combat division. On behalf of the clan leader, I will take the spoils of this tribe as a reward for the warriors under your command!"
"Your subordinate thanks the Shang Nation's Clan Master for the reward."
Hearing Shi Ya's words, the warriors of the vassal combat divisions beside him could not help but be overjoyed. Originally, they had been worried that after they attacked this human combat division, the Gu Yuan Tribe would come out to reap the spoils and take all the resources of this human combat division for themselves. They had not expected that the Gu Yuan Tribe would not take any of the spoils and allow them to divide them equally.
"Haha, this is what you warriors deserve. My Gu Yuan Tribe will never mistreat the warriors who fought in the bloody battle."
The Gu Yuan Battalion did not care about the resources gathered by the human battalion in front of them. Giving them to the vassal battalions could stimulate their morale. After all, with the motivation of profit, they would be able to complete the orders the Gu Yuan Battalion gave them with all their heart.
Now that the Gu Yuan Tribe had forged a tribe of luck, unless it was a human tribe that brought disaster to the great wilderness, if they destroyed a human combat division, it would more or less affect the tribe's luck.
Of course, this did not mean that the Gu Yuan Tribe would be bound by the luck of the human race just because it had forged a tribe of luck. This depended on how much benefit the Gu Yuan Tribe would receive from destroying this human combat division, and whether it was worth it for the Gu Yuan Tribe to do so. If the vassal combat divisions did so, the impact on the Gu Yuan Tribe would be minimized.
In the southern region of the Fallen Dragon Territory.
The Green Feather Eagle hovered in the sky and dived down to the ground. When the huge Green Feather Eagle landed, a Green Feather soldier shouted.
"Reporting to Elder Xue Sha, Major Xiao, the Crimson Wood Tribe, Redrain Tribe, and several other combat masters have already breached the tribe that is putting up a desperate struggle against our Ancient Origin Combat Masters, and they are currently cleaning up the defeated soldiers!
There were also tens of thousands of soldiers standing behind Xue Sha and Xiao Xiong. At this moment, the southern combat masters had already swept through the great wilderness, subduing more than 70 human combat divisions and destroying five tribes.
And now, the sixth human combat division that was resisting stubbornly was on the verge of destruction!
