Chapter 292: Chapter 283: To Know! - 2

This time, Wu Yuan did not lose his temper again, but clenched his fists, his face like still water. He had always firmly believed in the principle of the winner takes all, and that only the victors have the right to judge the rights and wrongs. It did not matter in the least to him that he had conspired with foreigners, as long as no one knew about it. To the people within his tribe and throughout the Great Wasteland, he was a respected chieftain. In his heart, he had long decided to kill the two men before him.

"With the arrival of the the War Envoy from the Iron Hoof Tribe this time encouraging us to kill the remaining survivors of the Exotic Clan hiding in the Great Wasteland, do you really want to die? If that is the case, our clan leader will naturally not be stopping you. Go home now and wash your necks, waiting for the Black Iron troops of my Wu Yuan Tribe to reap your heads!"

"In the past, we had cooperated often, Wu Yuan, and reduced many obstacles for your tribe. Are you not afraid that we would reveal everything now that you treat us this way?"

"Hahaha! My Wuyuan Tribe follows the order of the Iron Hoof Tribe, protects the brothers of the Great Wasteland, and the ancestral land. We mainly clear out the remnants of the exotic clan hidden in the Great Wasteland. Under the removal by the brave men of our Wuyuan Tribe, the remaining Ghost Clan which had been rampaging in the Great Wasteland for hundreds of years had to escape in the wild. Which tribe in the Great Wasteland doesn’t know about this? As for conspiring with foreigners, do you think our Great Wasteland Ancient Human Tribe will believe your one-sided words?"

As a chieftain who controls a tribe of more than 100,000 people, he who dares to do such a daring and unacceptable thing in the world wouldn’t be unprepared.

"Many say that the chieftain of the Wu Yuan tribe is as cunning as a fox and has a heart as black as ink. It’s indeed well deserved. However, simply relying on these to let us risk our lives for you is simply wishful thinking! We are not the second Gui Xiong."

"The Wu Yuan tribe might not be eligible, but this son here surely is!"

At this moment, a frivolous voice was heard coming from behind Wu Yuan. In the next moment, a young man dressed in white appeared before everyone. However, the gloom on his face had ruined his handsome features.

"Xiang’er ... You ..."

Upon hearing Xiang Tian’s voice, Wu Yuan was immediately shocked and flabbergasted. Initially, he had instructed him not to follow. Such private conspiracy with foreigners was a major taboo for their tribe, but he did not understand how deep Xiang Tian’s resentment towards Xiao Chen was. Every time he heard Xiao Chen’s name, his resentment would increase greatly, especially when his fame reverberated once again in the Giant Stone Valley after he defeated the revered Azure Blood Gold Blade of the Great Wasteland Ancient Human Tribe, Mu Qingcang. Xiang Tian could no longer control his violent rage.

Hidden in the barbaric ancient forest, upon hearing the blatant bargaining between Wu Yuan and the two remaining Exotic Clan members, he finally could not hide his figure any longer.

Just as Xiang Tian and the two remaining Exotic Clan members were arguing endlessly, more than ten figures had appeared outside the city of Gu Yuan Tribe. They were all on full gallop on their mounts, with steam coming out of their nostrils. Each of them looked very tired, the one leading was the Dark Hall Master, Tie Wen.

Tribe Stone Tower Hall.

At this moment, more than ten warriors who had raced from outside the city had appeared in the Great Hall. In addition, Xiao Chen and the Grand Elder of the Punishments were also present, while the Internal Affairs Elder had already left to handle the tribe’s internal affairs.

"Tie Hall Master, you and your brothers have been enduring the weather and living in the wilderness. It’s been extremely difficult. After this, as a Clan Chief, I will definitely reward you generously!"

Upon hearing Xiao Chen’s words, more than ten figures immediately bowed to the ground and cried out, "Thank you, Clan Chief, for the Gu Yuan. We are willing to give our lives at any time."

"Tie Hall Master, what have you discovered in the Great Wasteland this time?"

Upon hearing this, Tie Wen on the side immediately said, "Reporting to the Clan Chief, according to your instructions, I went to investigate near the Wu Yuan Tribe. According to the people living nearby, there is indeed a unit of the Ghost Tribe’s scattered soldiers stationed nearby. As the Blood Fiend Elder said, there are several foreign survivor warriors gathered nearby. Recently, the Iron Hoof Tribe issued a summoning order, and all the Human Tribes under its control were determined to eliminate the remaining Exotic Clan in the Great Wasteland. So, this Wu Yuan Tribe has been fighting this Foreign Scattered Battle Division for several months."

Hearing Tie Wen’s words, Xiao Chen didn’t show any surprises. After all, he already knew most of what Tie Wen had said.

"However, the weird thing is that more than a month ago, this Ghost Tribe’s Scattered Battle Division, which had been fighting with the Wu Yuan Tribe for months, was actually defeated. Their leader had to take his troops to run deep into the Great Wasteland, even abandoning the nest which had been operational for hundreds of years."

At that moment, a sharp light shot out from Xiao Chen’s eyes, and his hands, which were lightly resting on the stone chair, instinctively clenched.

"The news of the Ghost Tribe’s escape is buzzing around the lands a thousand miles near the Wuyuan Tribe, and it was even praised by the battle envoy of the Sect Master’s Tribe."

"Escaped?"

Xiao Chen did not believe it was mere coincidence that his Gu Yuan Tribe encountered such a thing. The Ghost Tribe survivors had been beaten and were fleeing straight towards his Gu Yuan Tribe. This was a distance thousands of miles away. There were over a dozen human tribes located within or nearby this range. If the only aim was to slaughter human tribes for blood food, there was no need to go the extra mile, running all those thousands of miles away!

"Chief, could it really be a coincidence that the Ghost Tribe’s scattered battle division ambushed our Gu Yuan Tribe?"

The report from Tie Wen made the two Grand Elders furrow their brows, raising some questions.

"Coincidence?" A smirk flashed across Xiao Chen’s face, then disappeared a moment later.

"Iron Hall Master, do you have any news on the investigation into the connection between the Wuyuan Tribe and the Baoxiang Tribe?"

"Reporting to the Chief, my investigation has revealed the Wuyuan Tribe and Baoxiang Tribe are related by marriage. The chieftain of Wuyuan’s wedded sister is married to the Baoxiang Tribe’s chief. Moreover, it was because of this, that the current Wuyuan Tribe’s chief could outdo his many competitors and inherited the position of chief."

"After marrying the chieftain of Baoxiang Tribe, Wuyuan Tribe’s chief’s sister had two children, one of whom is the Heavenly Xiang prince who is at odds with the chief."

What!

The words of the two elders were filled with shock.

Hearing this result, Xiao Chen did not show any surprise. This was but a minor difference from his expectations.

On the day of the Iron Hoof Tribe’s battle envoy arrival, the young warriors accompanying him did not hide their hostility towards the Gu Yuan Tribe. This was unusual since Xiao Chen could ascertain that he did not know this young warrior. Where this hostility came from was unknown.

"Furthermore, I disguised myself as a Great Wasteland Ranger and infiltrated the Wuyan Tribe. I discovered there was a disappearance. Xiang Tian reportedly appeared in the Wuyuan Tribe shortly after the battle envoys arrived at the Gu Yuan Tribe, and he went with the young chieftain of the Wuyuan Tribe, who had come to Gu Yuan Tribe with the battle envoy from Sect Master’s Tribe, to the front line to deal with the Exotic Clan’s survivors. Not long after, news of the Ghost Tribe Soldiers being defeated by the Wuyuan Tribe and fleeing the Great Wasteland emerged."

The Great Hall suddenly fell silent, a suppressed atmosphere mingling within.

"Chief, are you suggesting that Xiang Tian and the Wuyuan Tribe are really conspiring with the Exotic Clan, defying the world, and committing such disgraceful acts against our ancestors?"

Everyone found it hard to believe as they originally thought the battle between their tribe and the Baoxiang Tribe had been cancelled and concluded. Even if the Baoxiang Tribe misbehaved due to arrogance, believing that the Gu Yuan tribe damaged their face, they would retain some caution. They never expected Xiang Tian, for his own selfish desires, to deceive his ancestors and not hesitate to join forces with the Exotic Clan.

"In the Great Wasteland, one is either a victor or a victim. Since the beginning of time, there have always been differences among humanity, those who ignore the greater good to satisfy personal gains."

Compared to the anger of the tribe people, Xiao Chen was more open-minded about the matter. In this world, there were no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. As long as there were enough benefits, someone would always take risks, and with enough money, ghosts would grind away!
