Leading his formidable army in a swift advance, Chen Qing saw a majestic mountain looming in the distance shortly after nightfall.
Such a massive force could hardly escape the notice of the Dragon Elephant Tribe. As the army approached, more than a dozen Foundation Establishnt warriors flew out from the mountain.
The man at the forefront bore a seven-part resemblance to Lu Shengxiang.
Lu Shenglong shouted: "Who are you to dare cause trouble in the Dragon Elephant Tribe?"
Chen Qing stepped down from his war chariot, slowly walked to the front of the troops, with Lu Shengxiang following behind him.
Chen Qing shouted: "Lu Shenglong, your conspiracy has been exposed. Look and see who this is!"
Lu Shengxiang erged from behind Chen Qing, and the expressions of the Foundation Establishnt warriors behind Lu Shenglong changed dramatically. "Lu Shenglong, didn't you say the Young Master was killed by surrounding tribes?"
"Young Master!"
"Lu Shenglong!"
Lu Shengxiang shouted: "Big brother, we are brothers, I never thought you would attempt to kill !"
This cursed Lu Shenglong, even after Lu Shengxiang had been gone for so long, still hadn't fully conquered the Dragon Elephant Tribe!
He had originally thought that Lu Shenglong would be able to control the Dragon Elephant Tribe and engage in a great battle with him.
Firstly, to train the army.
Secondly, to weaken the strength of the Dragon Elephant Tribe, making it easier to control.
Chen Qing observed the scene in front of him and thought silently to himself that things were not going well.
No wonder Lu Shengxiang set such a high price, for it turned out that Lu Shenglong just had talent but was not popular.
If Lu Shenglong were to die, the entire Dragon Elephant Tribe would surely return fully to Lu Shengxiang's hands.
Having a subordinates hold close to two hundred Foundation Establishnt warriors in his grip was not good news for Chen Qing.
His own Foundation Establishnt warriors numbered only about sixty or seventy!
Thus, it seed that Lu Shenglong could not be killed.
He needed to be kept to restrain Lu Shengxiang.
Chen Qing imdiately stepped out, "I am soone who values talent. Lu Shenglong, you are in the mid-stage of Foundation Establishnt, and so am I. If you survive three of my moves, I will spare your life!"
On the brink of despair, Lu Shenglong suddenly saw a glimr of hope.
With a six hundred-strong Foundation Establishnt army pressing in, and Lu Shengxiang opposing him, most of the Foundation Establishnt warriors in the Dragon Elephant Tribe surely wouldn't follow his orders.
For him, it was nearly a hopeless situation.
Lu Shenglong imdiately agreed: "Very well, it shall be so!"
To avoid any further comnt from others, Chen Qing imdiately utilized Fatian Xiangdi, raising his hand to unleash a perfected Dragon Capturing Hand towards Lu Shenglong!
Lu Shenglong instantly thrust out his long spear, accompanied by a series of Dragon Roar chants, to et Chen Qing's massive hand.
Boom!
With a single palm strike, Lu Shenglong was sent flying, and the entire ground was struck down three feet deep by Chen Qing.
Chen Qing's eyes shifted slightly. Lu Shenglong held back, not using his full strength!
According to Zhang Can's intelligence, this person should be just a notch weaker than him and Zhang Can.
Stronger even than Zhang Jianfeng.
At this mont, Lu Shenglong was bleeding all over, clearly not using his full strength.
Was he trying to bolster my prestige?
He likely also intended to appear more miserable, leaving Lu Shengxiang speechless.
This person had deep strategies, imdiately seeing through my intentions!
Not bad, indeed usable!
Chen Qing did not hesitate, once again unleashing the Dragon Capturing Hand at Lu Shenglong!
Lu Shenglong swung his long spear, instantly releasing a Dragon Shadow which roared towards Chen Qing's massive hand!
The massive hand shattered the Dragon Shadow, striking Lu Shenglong again, leaving him drenched in blood.
Chen Qing struck once more, thrusting the entire earth three feet deeper, the surrounding people able to hear the sound of Lu Shenglong's bones breaking.
Chen Qing also slightly held back this ti, making Lu Shenglong only appear to be in a miserable state.
After three strikes, Chen Qing withdrew his hand.
Lu Shenglong struggled to rise, "The three moves are over."
Only then did Chen Qing remark: "Consider yourself sowhat skilled. Join Li Bingwei, serve for thirty years, and redeem your sins!"
Lu Shenglong breathed a sigh of relief, bowing: "Thank you, my lord, for your rcy in sparing my life!"
Seeing that Lu Shenglong was not killed, Lu Shengxiang naturally felt uneasy in his heart, but as Chen Qing had made his arrangents, he couldn't say more.
After all, since Lu Shenglong was taken away by Chen Qing, he wouldn't be contesting for power in the Dragon Elephant Tribe for thirty years.
Seeing the matter resolved, Chen Qing ordered: "Enter the Dragon Elephant Tribe, rest for a day, and tomorrow proceed to Longevity Mountain."
Led by Lu Shengxiang, Chen Qing stepped into the Dragon Elephant Tribe. He had to admit, the mountain where the Dragon Elephant Tribe resided was majestic and imposing.
Even if Chen Qing employed Fatian Xiangdi, it would not be easy to lift this great mountain.
Just settled into the main hall of the Dragon Elephant Tribe, Lu Shengxiang ca to visit, bringing three jade bottles.
Chen Qing picked up one of the jade bottles, clearly seeing the information of the Gu within.
All three were spiritual item Dragon Elephant Gus, with differing qualities.
Spiritual item Gus were indeed precious, even a large clan like the Dragon Elephant Tribe had only three in stock.
Chen Qing didn't worry about Lu Shengxiang deceiving him, for a simple reason.
Lu Shenglong was still alive. As long as Lu Shenglong claid the Dragon Elephant Tribe had more than three Dragon Elephant Gus, Lu Shengxiang would be disregarded by Chen Qing.
Lu Shengxiang would not dare take such a risk, so he had to present all of them.
This was also why Chen Qing kept Lu Shenglong alive.
Chen Qing took a brief look, his gaze falling on the highest quality Dragon Elephant Gu.
[Spiritual item Power Gu: Dragon Elephant]
Quality: Butterfly Transformation, Second Transformation
Life Span: 54/360
Effect: Strength of one dragon, nine elephants

The terse and straightforward power Gu worm information alone made Chen Qing imnsely excited with just the strength of one dragon, nine elephants.
With this Power Gu, his Fatian Xiangdi would achieve even greater enhancent!
Coupled with the power doubling from the Earth Walker, his entire strength would undergo a complete transformation!
Once he contracted this Dragon Elephant Gu, even Zhang Can would struggle to oppose him.
This was undoubtedly the most suitable Gu worm for him!
Having taken two jade bottles, leaving behind the one with the lowest quality Dragon Elephant Gu, Chen Qing remarked: "I only need two Dragon Elephant Gus, keep the remaining one for yourself."
"This is also compensation for not killing Lu Shenglong."
"However, you need not worry, since he will be with for thirty years and may not return to the Dragon Elephant Tribe afterward."
Hearing this, Lu Shengxiang felt sowhat appeased, "Thank you, Lord Wei."
After allowing Lu Shengxiang to depart, Chen Qing summoned Su Yi to bring Lu Shenglong, and when only the two of them were left in the hall, Chen Qing asked: "How have the battles against the surrounding tribes progressed recently?"
Lu Shenglong replied: "We're close to completely subduing the eight neighboring tribes."
Chen Qing stated: "Recover well. I'll leave you with a hundred n to fully conquer these tribes."
"Once conquered, bring them to ."
"As for the Dragon Elephant Tribe, those willing to follow you, I'll have them accompany you and won't pursue their offenses."
"Thirty years will be sufficient for us to return from the Death Realm."
"What to do is for you to figure out."
With a thought, Lu Shenglong imdiately realized Chen Qing intended to use him to counterbalance Lu Shengxiang.
How many Foundation Establishnt warriors he could recruit from those eight tribes depended on his abilities.
Lu Shenglong struggled to stand from the bed and declared, "I promise to bring back at least two hundred Foundation Establishnt warriors!"
Hearing this number, Chen Qing burst into laughter, "Very good, go ahead and recover well."
The Dragon Elephant Tribe, after all, wasn't like the major tribes in the Wu Country. The major clans in the Wu Country had been terrified into submission by Yan Shiyin, having no choice but to follow him.
The Dragon Elephant Tribe had preserved their strength entirely, so it was prudent to keep so contingencies.
Sitting alone in the great hall, Chen Qing couldn't help but feel a slight weariness.
How difficult it was to aspire to be a king!
Yet, finally, he had taken the first step.
"Relay orders to Zhang Can, Yan Bailiang, Lu Shengxiang, to split into three paths each leading two hundred Foundation Establishnt warriors. Invite every major clan encountered on the way south down to pay homage to the Miao God statue!"
"Those who do not respect it shall be dealt with as enemies of the Miao God, without rcy!"
