1244: Chapter 1211: Undercurrents Surging, Future Developnts!
(Making up for yesterday) 1244: Chapter 1211: Undercurrents Surging, Future Developnts!
(Making up for yesterday) Emperor Xiangyang Family was originally located under what is now the administration of the Gu Yuan Tribe, an imperial clan whose ancestors included an emperor and whose lineage was long and illustrious.
Though the emperor was no longer present, the foundation of the entire family was not to be underestimated.
This ti, the King from Emperor Xiangyang Family who ca was an elderly man, appearing as a smiley old man.
However, in his seemingly cloudy eyes, there was occasionally a sharp gleam showing.
“Xiang Song, elder, you are the pillar among the large hidden families in our Southern Domain, today we should advance and retreat together!”
Accompanying the King from the Emperor Xiangyang Family was a middle-aged man adorned in a King Liuyun Battle Robe, his eyes shining with a sharp light.
This was Feng Qianlin, head of the Fengyun Family from the hidden families of the Southern Domain.
Emperor Xiangyang Family and Fengyun Family were two of the hidden families under the jurisdiction of the Gu Yuan Tribe’s dominion, but there were others besides these two, such as the Nine Springs Family that had forrly allied with the Gu Yuan Tribe!
However, in comparison with these two grand families, the Nine Springs Family seed sowhat in decline.
Additionally, across the vast earth, there were so Ancient Clans, such as the Ancient Xiaoshan Tribe from the forr Qiao Mountain Region, who used to be royal clans but had fallen even faster.
The passing on of kings ceased, without a new King erging, yet even so, these Ancient Clans that had lost their kings are still far more powerful than the typical Legendary Marquis Departnt!
“I’m old now; today, it’s a world of warriors.”
King Xiang Song said cheerfully, showing no particular concern, and in front of him, besides Feng Qianlin of the Fengyun Family, a group of ancient clan warriors gathered.
“Xiang Song elder, you are still vigorous despite your age, and we, the hidden families and ancient clans of the Southern Domain, we all need you to take charge for us!”
Prompted by King Liuyun, a warrior from the Jin Lan Tribe sincerely complinted.
“Yes, indeed, our hidden families and ancient clans, our ancestors have all shed blood for the Human Clan, benefitted from the patronage of the upper echelons of humanity, and the descendants have thrived on this Earth.
Previously, our concealnt was nothing special, but now with Gu Yuan forging a King-level Tribe, then…”
Another warrior spoke up, though he did not finish, everyone knew the underlying worry.
In the past, being concealed, belonging to a Great Aristocratic Family or Ancient Clan, they could be likened to local tyrants over this land, and even if their respective territories had Legendary Marquis Departnts, they did not care about them at all—however, with the ergence of a King-level Tribe, they could ignore Legendary Marquis Departnts, but facing the Supre King Tribe required careful consideration.
“Xiao Mou is deeply grateful that the four elders could co!”
At this mont, Xiao Chen left Celestial Seal King and greeted King Heavenly Cassia and others with a fist salute.
“Xiao Clan Leader, my Four Great King-level Tribes in the Southern Domain of the Eastern Wasteland have long been weak, each also suppressing a Kings’ Void Path in the Northern Border of the Southern Domain, even if wanting to care for the Southern Border, it is beyond our ability, but now, with your Gu Yuan King’s Departnt in the Southern Border, governing all domains, and our Four Great King-level Tribes stationed in the Northern Border, we will at least not be as passive as before!” King Heavenly Cassia said laughingly.
“The Southern Domain of the Eastern Wasteland is so vast; previously, with only our four King-level Tribes supporting, it was really hard to manage, but now, the Southern territories of the Southern Domain of the Eastern Wasteland can be left to your Gu Yuan King’s Departnt!”
Despite King Heavenly Blade’s typically cold tone, there was a sense of relief.
“My four King-level Tribes may only be four in the Southern Domain, but there are more than just those aristocratic families, could it be…?”
Imdiately afterwards, Xiao Chen’s mind stirred, and he queried aloud.
“Does Xiao Clan Leader not understand?”
King Heavenly Lan’s eyes carried a hint of coldness.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen realized, and it appeared the relationships between the King-level Tribes and aristocratic families in the Southern Domain of the Eastern Wasteland were indeed much more complicated than he had imagined.
King Heavenly Lan’s gaze turned towards King Xiang Song and a group of aristocratic ancient clan warriors huddling together, with the coldness in his eyes intensifying.
“A group of warriors inheriting blessings, squandering the glory of their ancestors, truly ashad to be associated with them!”
…
“Xiao Clan Leader’s fa has spread through All Heavens and Myriads of Realms, his combat power is otherworldly; indeed, it’s fortunate for our Human Clan, a blessing for many tribes of the Southern Domain of the Eastern Wasteland, and the safety of dozens of Human Race Territories in the Southern Domain in future days will rely on the Gu Yuan King’s Departnt!”
“Yes, yes indeed, from now on, our tribe will be sheltered under the Gu Yuan King’s Departnt, these years the Southern Domain had no King-level Tribe erge, foreign races ravaged us and we, the hidden ancient clans, have greatly suffered, but now we finally have soone to counsel for us, isn’t that right, King Xiao!”
“Our King Xiao commands respect across the Myriads of Realms with his fighting prowess, making foreign races tremble at the re ntion of his na, now with Gu Yuan King’s Departnt presiding over the land, we can also rest easy!”
In front of Xiao Chen, a group of ancient clan warriors of hidden families surrounded him, their words of praise unceasing.
“This must be elder King Xiang Song; truly deserving of being from an Imperial-ridian Great Clan, back then Emperor Xiangyang, who waged conquest across Hundred Realms with an emperor, is indeed the person I admire most!”
Xiao Chen’s voice suddenly rose, addressing an elder in the middle, then his gaze shifted toward a middle-aged king next to him.
“I presu this is King Liuyun.”
However, just as King Liuyun was about to speak, Xiao Chen’s gaze had already turned elsewhere, sweeping around the vicinity.
Besides these two king-level figures, there were also a host of ancient clan leaders, totaling thirteen semi-kings!
Emperor Xiangyang Family, Fengyun Family, Nine Springs Family—these were the king-tier aristocratic families hidden among the human race territories governed by the Gu Yuan Tribe.
In addition to this, there were thirteen ancient families; though their kings were absent, the overall strength of the tribes should not be underestimated.
Witnessing Xiao Chen’s gaze sweeping over him and moving on, King Liuyun felt a great affront, but the next mont, he was restrained by King Xiang Song and forcibly suppressed his anger.
“Our esteed guests have traveled from afar.
Congratulations to my Gu Yuan for our ascension to king-level tribe.
I have prepared so modest wine.”
Soon, Xiao Chen’s voice resonated once more.
Yuwang Hall!
As the venue where the Gu Yuan Tribe entertained these formidable people, only warriors who dominated a whole region, legends in their own right, could enter the hall.
But once again, a clear division appeared in the Great Hall.
King Heavenly Cassia and four other king-level figures, along with the legendary tribes under the Gu Yuan Tribe, were all seated to Xiao Chen’s right.
While a host of hidden families and ancient clans took their seats to Xiao Chen’s left, a veiled opposition was discernible among them, clearly indicating long-standing grievances.
“Today, my Gu Yuan has forged itself into a king-level tribe.
Illustrious kings and warriors from various tribes have co to the Gu Yuan Tribe.
Xiao Mou has prepared simple blood food to entertain you all!”
As Xiao Chen’s words fell, a procession of Gu Yuan Tribe maidens entered the Great Hall one after another, presenting the blood food.
“Clan Leader Xiao, your tribe’s promotion to the Supre King Tribe, presiding over the Southern Domain and governing nurous human territories, we will henceforth rely on the Gu Yuan King Tribe in these vast lands!”
As the feast began, voices erged from the Great Hall.
If it weren’t for the Gu Yuan Tribe’s rise to king-level status, it would not have been easy to gather warriors from so many territories.
“As tribes under the Gu Yuan King Tribe, our loyalty to the Gu Yuan will naturally guide us henceforth.”
The dominant tribes of various territories naturally pledged their loyalty to Xiao Chen.
“All esteed clan leaders, my Gu Yuan Tribe is honored by your tribe’s recognition and entrusted with a significant duty of governing these domains.
Yet the Southern Domain is vast in its terrain, and solely relying on my Gu Yuan Tribe, it’s difficult to cover all we must.
Thus, actual implentation still requires many clan leaders to collaborate wholeheartedly with my Gu Yuan Tribe!”
Xiao Chen spoke softly.
Although the Gu Yuan Tribe had indeed beco a king-level tribe and now governed thirty-seven human territories, in reality, besides the Border Wasteland Region, other territories were rely under distant command.
Of course, they could station War Masters to preside over various territories, but those born and bred local tribes still controlled substantial regional power.
“Today, we have nurous kings, governing tribes from different territories, as well as a host of hidden families and ancient clans.
Taking this opportunity, I would like to discuss with you all the future developnt of the thirty-seven human territories in the south governed by my Gu Yuan Tribe.”
Have we co to it!
Xiao Chen’s voice was faint yet startled the warriors in the Great Hall, especially those from the hidden and ancient families.
Essentially, their primary reason for coming was related to this matter.
Those who proliferated in the Desolate Land and ruled over territories, the Battle Division, naturally belonged to the Gu Yuan Tribe, annually paying tribute and bearing the duty to accompany the Sect Master’s Tribe in Conquest.
But these hidden families and ancient clans were of concealed heritage, rarely appearing before the eyes of other tribal clansn.
They did not govern the lands; indeed, it could be said they seldom involved themselves in the myriad conflicts on this vast land, whether those within the human race or involving foreign races’ ravages.
However, non-involvent in conflicts did not an they refrained from harvesting resources from these lands.
In other words, they rely enjoyed the bounty of the land without fulfilling any duty of guardianship.
If this had been before, when the thirty-six human territories lacked a king, and no one was unified, they would have managed themselves unbridled.
But now, with the Gu Yuan Tribe forging itself into a king-level tribe, nominally, these thirty-seven territories were all under the Gu Yuan Tribe, and they could no longer act as recklessly as before!
Thus, the upcoming attitude of the Gu Yuan Tribe was crucial!
“My Gu Yuan Tribe has just been promoted to a king-level tribe, and everything is just starting.
To be honest, compared to any human tribe here, my Gu Yuan appears far too young.”
Xiao Chen’s voice then followed, pausing before continuing: “With four king-level tribes as predecessors, how can my Gu Yuan stand alone?
Thus, regarding the future developnt of the territories under my governance, I think we should still follow the old customs of our human race.
I wonder what you all think?”
What!
Xiao Chen’s words stirred excitent among so warriors of secretive grand clans.
What were those ‘old customs of the human race’?
Didn’t it an these great hidden families were still to develop under the previous conditions?
This implied the Gu Yuan Tribe had no intention of intervening in these hidden families.
Is this really so!
Compared to the excitent in the eyes of other warriors, Emperor Xiangyang, with his dim eyes, showed no trace of thrill.
