Gu Yuan Tribe.
The news that Xiao Chen had been ambushed by the Other Tribes naturally could not be kept a secret from the people of Gu Yuan Tribe. In addition, Xiao Chen had purposely blocked the news, so other than some elders, ordinary people in the tribe did not know about it.
Faced with the news that Xiao Chen had wandered into the depths of the Cave Void, his fate unknown, the people of the tribe could be said to be agitated.
"I don't believe it. The Lord Chief is a good man. He will be fine!"
"Yes!
Yes!
Yes!
The Lord Chief will definitely be fine. Our Gu Yuan Tribe has been through a lot until now, shaking the desolate border and becoming a marquis tribe. This is all because of the Lord Chief's strength. How could he be in danger! "
"The warriors outside of the tribe are just rumors. The Lord Chief will be fine. They are cursing our Lord Chief. They really deserve to die!"
…
Whether it was the Gu Yuan Tribe or the entire desolate border, the news of Xiao Chen's whereabouts could be said to be surging like a storm.
Under the agreement with Xiao Chen, no one from the Ancestral Court of the Desolate Border appeared. This caused the news of Xiao Chen's whereabouts to be unknown, and the rumor that Xiao Chen had died at the hands of the Other Tribes became more and more intense.
Compared to the low morale of the Human Tribe, the hidden Other Tribes in the desolate border became more active. They frequently appeared and attacked the Human Tribe's military divisions.
Even after seeing that the Ancestral Court of the Human Tribe did not take any further action, they became even more brazen.
Xuanling Mountain Range, Xuanling City.
Over the past few days, Jian Jinghong had already unified the entire Xuanling City. He had completely defeated and annexed the original six great Wanderer Forces of Xuanling City.
At this moment, apart from the Mountain Sea Tribe that had previously followed him, Jian Jinghong had annexed a few of the major forces of Xuanling City. He also had 50,000 soldiers under him.
These 50,000 soldiers were carefully selected by him. Originally, each of the six great Wanderer Forces had tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of troops. That was because he included all the men, women, old and young.
Having gotten used to the elite troops of the Gu Yuan Tribe, Jian Jinghong naturally looked down on this motley crew. He chose the warriors that had surrendered from the major forces to form 50,000 soldiers.
In addition, in addition to the few followers he had brought from the tribe, there were as many as 15 Heavenly Layer Realm martial artists in the Sword Pavilion founded by Jian Jinghong, including two at the fourth level and one at the fifth level of the Heavenly Layer Realm.
Xuanling City, Yuan Ling Palace.
This hall that originally belonged to the number one wandering force of Xuanling City had now become the base of the Sword Pavilion.
In the main hall, there were dozens of figures discussing matters.
"Everyone, the foreign races outside Xuanling City have been more and more rampant recently. They have continuously attacked our Xuanling City and the surrounding tribes. Therefore, I am preparing to exterminate them."
Jian Jinghong's voice sounded. Sitting below him were many Heavy Building Realm cultivators. He was ordered by his master to come to Xuan Ling City to train. His mission was to unify Xuan Ling City and clear out the foreign races around Xuan Ling City.
Now that Xuanling City was under Sword Pavilion's rule, it was time to start the second step of exterminating the Clan. Moreover, there were rumors in the Desolate Border that Xiao Chen had fallen. Jian Jinghong naturally knew about it.
However, he did not believe that his Master had fallen. This was his intuition.
However, this news made the Clan hidden in the Xuanling Mountain Range even more rampant. Apart from that, the subordinates of the Sword Pavilion that he had established also became restless when they heard this news.
Thinking of this, Jian Jinghong's eyes swept across the palace. At this moment, he could see the expressions of all the warriors in the palace. Other than the few followers that he had brought with him, the others were all Wanderers. Naturally, they were arrogant and unruly. The only way to make them submit was with strength.
"Pavilion Master, the Clan outside the city is in the limelight. If we send troops to attack them now, it will be disadvantageous for us!"
"That's right, Pavilion Master. There are mines everywhere in the mountain range where the Clan is hiding. It won't be easy to exterminate them."
"The Clan is cunning. Now that they have heard some news that we don't know if it's true or false, they have become even more rampant. Our Sword Pavilion has just been established. If we attack recklessly and lose, it will be disadvantageous for our Sword Pavilion's Xuanling City!"
As soon as Jian Jinghong's words fell, a few Heaven Building Realm warriors refuted. Sword Pavilion had just been established and gathered their strength in a hurry. Needless to say, it was mixed.
"Do all the elders think the same?" Jian Jinghong sneered.
"That's right, Pavilion Master. We agree with Elder Xue and Elder Mu. The situation is unclear now. Sword Pavilion has just taken over Xuanling City. It's better to be safe."
Soon, another martial artist responded. The Elder Xue they mentioned was the Sword Pavilion's Fifth Heavenly Layer Realm Wanderer, and Elder Mu was the Fourth Heavenly Layer Realm martial artist.
As for the other Fourth Heaven Building Realm Wanderer, his surname was Qi. He did not speak at this moment. Although he did not speak, there was a flash of light in his eyes. Obviously, he was not a simple person.
In response to the roars of the warriors in the hall, Elder Qi's lips curled into a faint sneer, as if he was mocking the ignorance of the warriors in the hall.
"Did the surviving non-humankind beings hear some groundless news, or did you hear some groundless news?"
Jian Jinghong sneered. A sharp light gathered around him as he swept his gaze across the hall and said word by word.
Looking at Jian Jinghong's gaze, some of the weaker elders felt a stinging pain in their eyes. However, Elder Xue and Elder Mu did not care at all. They turned their gazes to where they stood.
"Three days later, gather at the city gate and attack Xuanling Mountain Range. Those who don't arrive will be killed!"
In the next moment, Jian Jinghong's voice sounded again.
Currently, the morale of the entire Desolate Border had suffered a great blow due to the disappearance of Xiao Chen. On the other hand, the morale of the Clan had greatly increased. Even the decline caused by the defeat of the Blood Clan in the Battle of Providence had been reversed.
It was precisely because the Clan had become increasingly rampant that Jian Jinghong had decided to attack the Clan. He had even cancelled his original plan of spending half a month to unify the Sword Pavilion and had decided to unify it through a bloody battle.
"Pavilion Master, you are harming the Sword Pavilion by making such an arbitrary decision. I can understand that the Pavilion Master is feeling depressed. You can rest for a few days. We will naturally handle the Pavilion Master's affairs. Perhaps the Pavilion Master can make a trip back to the tribe, perhaps …"
Clang!
Before Elder Xue could finish his words, a clanging sound rang in the hall. An invisible Sword Qi rose and instantly slashed towards him.
Almost in an instant, before any of the warriors could react, a line of blood appeared on Elder Xue's neck, and a few drops of crystal-clear blood seeped out.
"You …"
Elder Xue's eyes widened. He wanted to speak, but no words came out. In the blink of an eye, a head rolled on the ground and blood spurted out.
Jian Jinghong's sudden attack instantly silenced the entire hall. Everyone looked at the rolling head on the ground and was so shocked that they could no longer speak. Especially the few warriors who had been refuting Jian Jinghong, their faces were even paler.
"This …"
They had not expected Jian Jinghong to be so decisive and kill without hesitation. Even the cultivators who were a level higher than him could not avoid his Sword Qi.
"This Pavilion Master has also heard of the rumors outside. However, does it affect you guys at all?"
After killing Elder Xue, the hall quietened down. Jian Jinghong retracted his killing intent and swept his gaze across the hall once again as he spoke.
"The entire Desolate Border belongs to my Gu Yuan Tribe. How big of a wave can a mere Mysterious Spirit City stir up?"
"My Gu Yuan Tribe has a Legendary Powerhouse, dozens of Venerable Almighty, and hundreds of Heaven Building Realm martial artists. Even if you have other thoughts, what can you do? In the face of my Gu Yuan Tribe, you're just ants!"
Jian Jinghong got up and walked out of the hall. As he walked, he said, "Also, even if there is no Gu Yuan Tribe, what right do you have to refute me!"
"Three days later, gather at the city gate and attack the Mysterious Spirit Mountain Range. Those who don't arrive will be killed!"
Jian Jinghong's silhouette disappeared from the hall. However, the last words that were transmitted into the hall had a different feeling to them, even though they were the same as before.
This time, the words were even more murderous, causing everyone to tremble.
However, these Heaven Building Realm warriors who had recovered from their shock could not help but smile bitterly. Thinking back to their previous actions, it seemed that they had taken themselves too seriously.
In the face of the huge Gu Yuan Tribe, so what if the rumors outside were true? As long as they still lived in the Desolate Border Region, the Gu Yuan Tribe would be an insurmountable mountain pressing on their heads.
Compared to the inexplicable horror of the warriors in the hall, Elder Qi got up and left. He looked at Elder Xue's head that was rolling on the ground. Even though he was a Heaven Building Realm fifth level warrior when he was alive, he was about to turn into a pile of bones at this moment.
Compared to the dead Elder Xue, Elder Qi was more aware of his own situation and knew his own limits.
In the eyes of warriors like them, dominating a city was the pinnacle that they could achieve in their lifetime. However, for the Gu Yuan Tribe, their pursuit was not worth mentioning at all.
After leaving the hall, Elder Qi did not return to his residence. Instead, he went to Jian Jinghong's residence.
"Pavilion Master." Elder Qi bowed respectfully to Jian Jinghong.
Even if the rumors of Xiao Chen's death outside the Void Hole were true, Jian Jinghong's strength alone was not something that Elder Qi could resist.
"May I know why Elder Qi is here?" Jian Jinghong was very surprised by Elder Qi's visit.
Elder Qi was originally a Heaven Building Realm warrior in the Mysterious Spirit City Wanderer Force and had submitted to the Sword Pavilion.
However, he had been very low-key these days and did not fight for anything. Among the many Heaven Building Realm warriors that had submitted to him, he was not eye-catching at all if his strength was not at the fourth level.
