When he returned to the tribe, his two wives had already come to welcome him. They were a little surprised to see Xiao Chen, which was why they spoke up.
Xiao Chen would not hide anything from his wives. Husband and wife were one. Xiao Chen was the chief of the tribe and held great authority in the tribe. His two wives supported him from behind, so he softly told his two wives about the worries in his heart.
"Husband, our Gu Yuan Tribe was able to develop from a small tribe to a power that shook the Desolate Border today. It can be said that we are able to stand on equal footing with Bai Ze, who has been reproducing for tens of thousands of years. In fact, our tribe is even stronger than Bai Ze. We have already gone through many trials and tribulations.
"Now that the entire Eastern Wasteland is enveloped by the foreign races, which tribe can remain unscathed? Which tribe is not facing extermination? Even if the foreign races did not plot against our Gu Yuan Tribe, our Gu Yuan Tribe and the foreign races would still be irreconcilable. A bloody battle is unavoidable. Now that the foreign races are plotting against our Gu Yuan Tribe, don't tell me that husband is afraid!"
The two wives snuggled up to Xiao Chen, speaking softly.
Could it be that he was afraid!
From a small tribe that was on the verge of collapse to a great tribe that shook the Desolate Border and even carried the destiny of a legendary marquis tribe that suppressed millions of miles of land, they had encountered many dangers along the way. Didn't they still survive step by step? Now that the foreign races were about to arrive, the spears in their hands were still as sharp as ever!
What was there to be afraid of?
Millions of tribesmen and hundreds of thousands of combat masters. With such confidence, what was there to be afraid of?
"Husband is too naive!" Then, Xiao Chen let out a long sigh and softly said with a smile.
After thinking through the key points, he naturally felt at ease and did not hesitate. Although the Gu Yuan Tribe was large and prosperous, its strength had increased by who knew how many times. How could it be afraid of battle?
"Husband is just too worried about the tribe's safety. Husband has contributed greatly to the Gu Yuan Tribe being able to reach its current state. It is precisely because husband fought against powerful enemies and pacified the people that our Gu Yuan Tribe has been able to develop like this.
"Husband, the Gu Yuan Tribe is no longer a small tribe with weak people. The younger generation of the tribe has begun to grow up. What you need to do is to control the general direction of the tribe. With you in charge of the tribe, the rest can be left to the rest of the tribe."
"That's right, my husband. Back then, our tribe was small and weak, and there were very few experts in the tribe. But now, the tribe has been integrated, and the new generation is growing up. If you protect them under your wings again, how can they grow up and expand the tribe in the future?"
"There is a price to pay for growth. It needs to be forged with blood and pain!"
Xiao Chen's eyes were filled with confusion. He just stood in the courtyard and did not speak. Mu Qing and Pinghua leaned on his back and did not speak again. They just waited quietly. Such a simple principle was naturally easy to understand. However, Xiao Chen was confused because of his concern. He had always placed great importance on the tribe.
After a full 15 minutes, the originally quiet aura on Xiao Chen's body suddenly burst forth. This was a power that belonged to the spiritual level. The original silence was swept away, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.
"Husband!"
"I have already thought it through. Especially in the past three years, I have cared too much about the tribe and rarely let the warriors of the tribe fight to the death. Now, our Gu Yuan Tribe has the strength, but we have lost the courage that warriors should have."
"Thanks to your reminder, I have misunderstood the intentions of the Ancestral Court. I have blindly protected the Human Tribe and even wanted to move several large tribes within a million miles to my Fallen Dragon Territory and gather them together to protect these large tribes."
"Husband, what do you mean?"
When the time came, Xiao Chen's words confused Mu Qing and Pinghua. They did not know why Xiao Chen was involved in the Ancestral Court from his own tribe.
"I was wrong. In the past two or three years, the Ancestral Court has not issued any other edicts to our large tribes to guard the Human World. They have also made our tribes fight on their own. Almost no warriors of the Ancestral Court have appeared. Almost all the tribes have been fighting on their own."
Xiao Chen's words were not wrong. However, the millions of miles of land around the Gu Yuan Tribe seemed peaceful because the Gu Yuan Tribe had tried their best to maintain the peace. But other than that, the Ancestral Court did not issue any edicts to the large tribes. It could even be said that they did not care about the lives and deaths of the large tribes.
Although the experts of the Foreign Tribes had been stopped by the various experts, there were still sporadic Foreign Tribe soldiers who had arrived in the Human World through special methods. They gathered with the Foreign Tribe soldiers hidden in the depths of the desolate land and continued to wreak havoc on the many human combat divisions. Over the years, countless low-rank combat divisions had been destroyed.
This was simply unavoidable. Even in the millions of miles of desolate land guarded by the Gu Yuan Tribe, there were countless low-rank combat divisions and scattered combat divisions. Moreover, their locations were scattered and there was no order to speak of.
Moreover, it was even more difficult to find traces of the Foreign Tribe soldiers. Even though the Gu Yuan Tribe had worked with several middle-rank combat divisions to clean up the desolate land many times, it was still difficult to completely eradicate them.
Similarly, in the past two years, the Gu Yuan Tribe had destroyed nearly a hundred low-rank combat divisions and scattered combat divisions in the millions of miles of land that they had patrolled. This was only after they had been discovered. It was difficult to predict the number of tribes that were located in remote areas or in ancient forests.
"Husband, what do you mean by this? What is the Ancestral Court's intention?"
"The Ancestral Court is raising Gu!" Xiao Chen's eyes flashed with a bright light!
"The Ancestral Court is not taking action. They are using the hands of the Foreign Tribes to raise Gu. They want to train a lion that has been through hundreds of battles!
"Although the Desolate Border is in constant turmoil and chaos, a true war that affects the entire Desolate Border has not been seen for tens of thousands of years. After such a long time, the battle blood that belongs to the Human Race has been dormant in the depths of their bloodline. Now, the Ancestral Court wants to awaken it!
"Even if a hundred people die and only one remains, as long as the battle blood is awakened, it will be the greatest harvest!"
Xiao Chen's words caused Mu Qing and Nianhua Liang's hearts to tremble involuntarily. Although they also wanted to train the warriors of their own tribes, they shuddered when they heard Xiao Chen's analysis of the Ancestral Court's true intentions.
There were hundreds of millions of humans in the entire Desolate Border. The Ancestral Court's actions would cause the deaths of many of their kinsmen.
Raising Gu was using fresh blood to stimulate one's courage!
"Husband, are you going to issue a new order for the tribes to fight?" Mu Qing asked softly.
"No need. Now that the matter has become a foregone conclusion, you have reminded me that although the Ancestral Court's method seems cruel, using the lives of hundreds of millions of people in the Desolate Border as a bet is the most correct. Now that the crisis has arrived, the invasion of the Hundred Races has become increasingly undisguised. It has reached a point where we have no choice but to fight. It is time for the Human Race's battle blood to be ignited!"
"Last time, the leaders of several large tribes gathered at my Gu Yuan Tribe, but there was a disagreement. They were unwilling to move near my Gu Yuan Tribe, so we can take advantage of this situation. In the future, the Combat Masters of my Gu Yuan Tribe will retreat to the territory under my Gu Yuan Tribe's jurisdiction. Since the various tribes live and reproduce on this land, they naturally have a responsibility to defend their land and resist the foreign races. My Gu Yuan Tribe only needs to do our best to resist the powerful foreign races. As for the foreign race wandering the Desolate Border, let the various tribes deal with them!"
However, the two women understood that as Xiao Chen's voice fell, countless human tribes in the millions of lands around the Gu Yuan Tribe would tremble in fear. They would be in a precarious situation, living in the endless invasion of the foreign races. They might not even know when they would be wiped out, or when their descendants would be wiped out!
"Alright, leave these matters to the elders in the tribe to pass on the edict. This time, your husband has obtained a Martial Path Building, which is ranked as high as the ninth level. Pinghua, refine it into your body and make up for the incomplete Martial Path Building!"
After a moment, Xiao Chen changed the topic, and a white jade tower appeared in his hand. The tower had nine floors, and the white jade was sparkling and translucent. It exuded a strange and mysterious aura, as if it wanted to ascend to the heavens and fight for supremacy.
Ninth level Martial Path Building!
This Rank 9 Martial Path Tower startled Mu Qing and Pinghua. This was definitely a treasure that could shake up the entire desolate border. And Pinghua's expression was even more sluggish. This Rank 9 Martial Path Tower was actually prepared by Xiao Chen for her. This was simply like a dream.
Xiao Chen and Mu Qing had both forged the Ninth level Martial Path Building. This was known to Pinghua. Although her aptitude was not bad, there was still a gap between her and the truly talented people. What she had condensed was only the Seventh level Martial Path Building. Although it seemed to be only a difference of two levels, the gap between them was like heaven and earth.
Ninth level Martial Path Building was qualified to be promoted to the King Realm. Only warriors who had completed the Ninth level Martial Path Building could have the opportunity to explore the King's Way. Now that she had found a Ninth level Martial Path Building for her, although refining someone else's Martial Path Building would lead to a dead end in the future, if there was no opportunity, she could only stop at the Seventh Level Martial Path Building. Now that she had the opportunity to go further, how could she not be satisfied?
"Sister, your husband has found such a treasure for you. Sister, you'd better refine it quickly. Don't let your husband down!"
Compared to Pinghua's sluggish expression, Mu Qing reacted. There was a touch of curiosity in his eyes. A Ninth level Martial Path Building had been preserved so well.
There were only two explanations for this situation. First, it was a Legendary Sovereign who willingly stayed behind after his death. Second, it could be that he was killed by a supreme being, which was why a Ninth Heavenly Layer Cultivator didn't react at all. Regardless of which explanation it was, it had to be said that this Ninth Level Martial Path was very precious.
Handing the Martial Pavilion to Pinching Flower to refine could be considered as fulfilling one of Xiao Chen's greatest wishes. Pinching Flower, who had just come out of closed-door cultivation to refine the Purple Snake Sword, entered closed-door cultivation again under Mu Qing's watch. This time, he was going to refine a Rank 9 Martial Pavilion.
Xiao Chen left the courtyard and went to the tribe's hall. After figuring out the true intention of the Ancestral Court, the Gu Yuan Tribe also needed some changes!
