_1 The young man’s words were stabbing daggers, every sentence plunging the Gu Yuan Clan into an abyss of no return.

The Grand Elder and others behind Xiao Chen exchanged glances, their eyes flaming with rage and their hearts seething with fury.

They didn’t recognize the young man standing before them; they didn’t understand why he was plotting against the Gu Yuan Clan.

Under the oppressive aura of Ten-Thousand Men Leader, Tie Mo, they found themselves unable to refute the accusations.

Their faces turned red, apprehensive that the top-notch warrior would believe the youth’s one-sided story, causing disaster to befall the Gu Yuan Clan.

The power that the Iron Hoof War Division had accumulated over thousands of years from the Superior Clan alone was sufficient to crush the Gu Yuan Clan.

To the mid-tier Iron Hoof Clan, obliterating the Gu Yuan Clan was an easy task, similar to humans stepping on the earth without taking notice of the ants beneath their feet.

Why would it be necessary to investigate the truths behind the Gu Yuan Clan’s alliance with the Exotic Clan?

Danger should be eliminated at its root.

At the moment, they fretted that Tie Mo wouldn’t tell right from wrong.

“Xiao Chen, have you anything else to say!”

Xiao Chen glanced at the young man beside him; seeing the grim smile on the youth’s lips, he had already condemned him in his heart.

Then, he turned his gaze towards the middle-aged man in the white robe, struggling to read his intentions from his face but failing.

Tie Mo’s state of mind was beyond sorrow and joy, making it impossible for others to discern his thoughts.

Fortunately, although Tie Mo was furious, he did not immediately take action.

Xiao Chen didn’t feel his killing intent, indicating there was still room for maneuver.

The Gu Yuan Clan was not yet robust enough to resist the Iron Hoof Clan; metaphorically, he was under someone else’s roof, so he had to lower his head.

With determination, Xiao Chen spoke solemnly, “Commander Sir, not to mention far-off matters, since I took the position of the Clan Leader, the Gu Yuan Clan has eradicated thousands of Exotic Clans.

As for the allegation of swallowing similar clans, all the clans in the whole valley can testify whether my Gu Yuan Clan has provoked internal strife.”

“Commander Sir, one can know a person’s face but not his heart, what is evil but appears to be loyal happens frequently in our Great Wasteland.

I suggest we arrest all top-ranking individuals of the Gu Yuan Clan for a proper investigation.

The current Great Wasteland is unstable; to protect our Human Clan, preventive measures must be taken.

If it’s inconvenient for you, our Blackwood Clan can assist!”

Blackwood Combat Division, ranked 16th among the Human Warrior Divisions in the Giant Stone Valley.

“Hmph,” Tie Mo snorted coldly, which instantly gave the young man a start.

“Do you think I need you to instruct me!”

“Not at all!

As a member of the Great Wasteland Ancient Human Tribe, I have the overall interest of the human tribe at heart.

Over the years, I have been fortunate to follow closely behind the young clan leader and have received continuous instruction.

I understand that everyone who colludes with the Exotic Clan must be punished!”

The young man quickly regained his composure, unperturbed by Tie Mo’s imposing manner.

He spoke confidently, the corner of his mouth lifting proudly, indicating he was associated with the young clan leader of the Iron Hoof Combat Division.

“Ha ha, what is the Wu Yuan Clan!

Merely a remote and small clan.”

What!

Wu Yuan was instantly taken aback; he hadn’t anticipated that even after revealing his association with the young clan leader, Tie Mo was completely unimpressed, which infuriated him.

He managed an awkward smile before speaking up again, “Sir, you are right.

Our Blackwood Clan is indeed a remote and small clan, but our young clan leader, he…”

“Scoundrel, how dare a mere servant stir up trouble in my presence!” Iron Mo shouted again, “The young tribal leader is not yet the tribal leader, he has no right to interfere in matters arranged by the Clan Leader!”

As the real power holder of the Iron Hoof Tribe and a warrior in the Near Layered Tower Realm, he only needed to pass through the thunder tribulation to become a Great Venerable in the Layered Tower Realm and the supreme elder of the tribe.

Even if the young tribal leader succeeded the Clan Leader, Iron Mo would still be a crucial pillar of the tribe.

With the current vigorous status of the Iron Hoof Tribe’s leader and his multitude of offspring, it was still uncertain who would succeed to the throne.

This was one reason he had no regard for others, let alone allowing a mere warrior give orders in front of him.

Finally, the middle-aged combat envoy’s gaze fell on Xiao Chen.

His eyes turned cold as he said dispassionately, “You’ve got guts.

I’ve heard about your fame in Duanmu City.

You’ve managed to suppress the Azure Blood Gold Blade.

Your combat power must be nearing the Peak of the Blood-Refining Realm already.

No wonder you dare to swallow the eight wastelands and sweep across the six realms!”

“Our Human Tribe has been fighting relentlessly in the Great Wasteland and immeasurable lives have been lost.

There are always human tribes being obliterated at any time, even mid-tier tribes like our Iron Hoof and even top-tier tribes face existential crises.

Generation after generation of the Human Tribe has shed blood in the vast wasteland by adhering to the principle of the survival of the fittest, and only the tribes with proven strength and battle experience can survive and withstand the attack of other races.

You’re doing well, your Gu Yuan Tribe must go all out to root out the remnants of the Blood Clan this time!”

“Indeed!

When it comes to eradicating the Survivors of the Exotic Clan, my Gu Yuan Tribe is second to none!”

From the previous tense situation to the current turn of events, the members of the Gu Yuan Tribe couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.

“This time, I’m touring the Giant Stone Valley to supervise the elimination of the remnants of the Blood Clan and to assess the strength of each human tribe in my jurisdiction, and rearrange the tribal rankings.

Since leaving Duanmu City, you’re the only tribe across tens of thousands of miles that barely passes muster!”

The mention of tribal ranking caught everyone in the Gu Yuan Tribe by surprise.

The countless inferior tribes under the Iron Hoof Tribe’s rule were constantly forming and disintegrating, with new tribes being established by human warriors gathering tribesmen every day.

In order to manage these human tribes, the Iron Hoof Tribe had categorized them into three ranks.

The first rank consists of the top ten lower-tier battle divisions like the Four Overlord tribes.

Those ranked within the top hundred in the Giant Stone Valley could barely qualify as middle-tier lower tribes, while the remaining ones belonged to the lowest-tier.

The Gu Yuan Tribe originally belonged to this lowest rank, which was why they hadn’t even set foot in Iron Hoof City despite having been established for eight hundred years.

“With Clan Leader Xiao’s combat power being comparable to that of a peak Blood Refining Realm Warrior and with the tribe boasting eighteen Blood Refining Realm Warriors, six of whom are in the late-phase of the Blood Refining Realm, I believe it’s quite enough to qualify as a superior lower-tier tribe!”

At this moment, the Blood Refining Realm Warriors of the Gu Yuan Tribe were exposed under Iron Mo’s gaze, even the Qiu brothers were included.

What!

The news that they were classified as a superior lower-tier tribe was a big shake for the Gu Yuan Tribe.

Some of the older tribesmen even had tears welling up in their eyes.

The rise in tribal rank meant that the Gu Yuan Tribe’s strength had been recognized by the Sect Master’s Tribe, which in turn implied a change in tribal status.

From now on, within the territory of the Iron Hoof Tribe, whether it was clashing with other tribes or trading with them, the Gu Yuan Tribe would gain significant advantages.

Previously, smaller tribes like the Gu Yuan Tribe were hardly paid attention by the Iron Hoof Tribe.

Now, the Gu Yuan Tribe is able to enter the Iron Hoof Tribe’s field of vision.

Even if they cannot obtain rewards from the upper tribes, they can still see a different world from what they have now.

However, Xiao Chen wasn’t as excited as the rest of the tribe.

He was extremely sober at the moment, and wasn’t fooled by this flattery.

Based on the current strength of the Gu Yuan Tribe, they could be honored among the middle-tier lower tribes, but it was difficult to be classified as a superior lower-tier tribe.

Why was this envoy from a higher tribe praising the Gu Yuan Tribe?
