176: Chapter 175: Kill the Chicken to Scare the Monkey!_1 176: Chapter 175: Kill the Chicken to Scare the Monkey!_1 He is Xiao Chen!

Boom!

Everyone was suddenly astounded!

People know their surroundings well, especially in a land spanning tens of thousands of miles around, neighbouring the Gu Yuan Tribe, a human tribe.

They couldn’t possibly be oblivious to the significant changes occurring around their tribe.

Major changes have occurred over the year; four major lower-tier battle tribes have been annihilated by another tribe one after another.

Perhaps these tribes’ strength wasn’t significant to them, but their collective strength made them unavoidably alert to the Gu Yuan Tribe’s situation.

The Gu Yuan Tribe’s mission wasn’t only about the Elemental Stone Vein; who could deny they came to probe the real strength of the Gu Yuan Tribe?

In the Great Wasteland, among the Human Bloodline, some accumulated power to divide the land and govern over a section of Earth.

They have the responsibility of defending their territory and protecting their people.

This is a conventional practice agreed upon in the Great Wasteland.

These tribes have combined and entered the Gu Yuan Tribe’s territory without informing the latter, blatantly disregarding the rules, believing that they could intimidate the tribe with their numbers.

Ultimately, they didn’t treat the Gu Yuan Tribe with due respect.

At this moment, they were overpowered by Xiao Chen’s vigorous actions.

All of them knew the strength of the middle-aged man he defeated; the man was the leader of a tribe called the Qingquan Tribe from ten thousand miles away.

He was at the peak of the Blood Refining Realm, with his martial arts skills refined to near perfection.

All accompanying him respected him immensely.

These tribe leaders and elders were all experienced and had seen many strong ones.

They recognized some of them, but they had never seen someone as powerful as Xiao Chen.

His cultivation level seemed to be on par with the Qingquan Tribe Leader, clearly in the Blood Refining Realm, yet he managed to suppress the Qingquan Tribe Leader in a blink.

Moreover, they were ultimately wrong about the matter today.

They forcibly intruded on someone else’s turf and were caught red-handed.

At first, they thought that with their numbers and their long-standing underestimation of the Gu Yuan Tribe, they could get away easily.

Never in their wildest dreams did they expect that the rumors were true.

The Gu Yuan Tribe Leader was indeed as peerlessly strong as rumored, and with his strong suppressive power, regardless of the reason, they had already become at a disadvantage.

Clang!

Despite this, they were still on guard, their eyes revealing deep wariness as they looked at Xiao Chen.

The most powerful person amongst them, the Qingquan Tribe Leader, was now at Xiao Chen’s mercy.

They decided it was best not to humiliate themselves further.

If Xiao Chen could suppress Qingquan so easily, he could naturally suppress them as well.

Just then, an elderly man stepped forward from the crowd, his eyes hinting at shrewdness.

He said, “I never expected you to be the famous leader of the Gu Yuan Tribe.

It’s true that seeing is believing.

Your cultivation depth is beyond belief; you control your breath so masterfully, manipulating your Blood Qi fluctuations at will.

You are indeed a young hero.

This…This…

We did not intend to be enemies with the Gu Yuan Tribe.

The invasion of your tribe’s territory was merely a misunderstanding, and for any offenses we have committed, we ask for your forgiveness, Xiao Clan Leader!”

Hearing the elderly man’s words, Xiao Chen gave a cold smile but chose not to respond.

The Qingquan Tribe Leader, who he held captive, slowly came to his senses after a brief daze.

As realization set in, he was filled with humiliation.

As the leader of his tribe, he was humiliated in front of a large audience, unable to move while held by the neck like a little chicken.

His face flushed with the rage, fear, and humiliation boiling within him.

He still couldn’t believe it even now.

As a warrior at the peak of the midstage Blood Refining Realm, he might not be on par with the genius warriors of superior reputation, but he was not weak either.

The current humiliation was more painful than death.

Honor was everything in the Great Wasteland, and his dignity had been swept away in an instant.

How could he hold his head high in the peerless Great Wasteland Path from now on?

His resentment was obvious.

As for what the Qingquan Tribe Leader was thinking, Xiao Chen didn’t care.

If anyone was to blame, it was the Qingquan Tribe Leader for his bad luck.

He walked right into Xiao Chen’s hands and became a sacrifice for the Gu Yuan Tribe to make a show of strength.

Kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.

At this moment, the Qingquan Tribe Leader was the chicken that Xiao Chen decided to kill.

Who could say it was anything other than bad luck that he was chosen by Xiao Chen?

Now that everyone has paid a visit in the Gu Yuan Tribe territory, Xiao Chen isn’t particularly concerned about these wandering invasions.

After all, they wander around the Great Wasteland with no fixed abode, running wherever there’s a profit.

But he can’t take it lightly when established tribes disrespectfully invade the Gu Yuan Tribe.

The Gu Yuan Tribe was established in the Great Wasteland for over eight hundred years.

Their prestige is not to be violated!

If the Gu Yuan Tribe doesn’t react to these tribes’ audacious invasions, wouldn’t that suggest the Gu Yuan Tribe is weak and can be bullied?

Of course, Xiao Chen isn’t arrogant enough to believe that his tribe can dominate an area of ten thousand miles and crush all other tribes.

Moreover, the Gu Yuan Tribe’s crisis is not just limited to this.

They can’t just seek temporary satisfaction and let the Gu Yuan Tribe fall into a disadvantageous position.

Hence, imposing by killing a chicken is a method that Xiao Chen concluded.

Since they still don’t have the strength to crush all tribes, they could kill one with significant strength instead to make an example of it.

Of course, he needed to choose carefully.

Killing a weak tribe wouldn’t serve the purpose of demonstrating power, and a too-strong tribe would only put the Gu Yuan Tribe in a more passive position.

It is no good to bite off more than one can chew.

The Qingquan Tribe Leader, reaching the peak of the midstage Blood Refining Realm, was an excellent choice!

If the Qingquan Tribe Leader knew what Xiao Chen was thinking, he would know how unfairly he was treated!

“Clan Leader Xiao, we were indeed wrong to have trespassed on your territory today without informing your tribe.

But we meant no harm.

Can we let the Qingquan Tribe Leader go first and then negotiate the rest?”

“Indeed, Clan Leader Xiao, we are all part of the human clan and should support each other.

The tribes of the ten thousand mile land are all defending the Land of Human Clan.

A few days ago, we heard that your territory had discovered an Elemental Stone Vein, a major fortune.

We came uninvited to congratulate the Gu Yuan Tribe on their luck!”

“We, the five tribes, came to congratulate the Gu Yuan Tribe on their grand victory over the neighboring tribes, demonstrating their power and prestige throughout the ten thousand miles of land, and for getting the opportunity to settle.

We wanted to witness the magnificence of Clan Leader Xiao.”

We came to congratulate the Gu Yuan Tribe on their luck of finding a fortune.

They have defeated their enemies gloriously, striking fear in their hearts near and far!

Xiao Chen didn’t believe that these people didn’t know that the Elemental Stone Vein had been completely mined.

At this time, they were brazenly using this matter to mock Xiao Chen.

They probably also knew that Xiao Chen would not dare to kill them all.

The Gu Yuan Tribe couldn’t bear the consequences.

So there was still some fear towards Xiao Chen, but they were not completely panicked.

Their words were to remind Xiao Chen that the five tribes were something the Gu Yuan couldn’t handle easily.
