Chapter 318: Chapter 309: Seriously Injured!_1

"I will scatter your Gu Yuan Tribe to the wind, let you roam the wilderness, and become wandering specters, never to be reborn!"

A voice full of resentment echoed in the heavens, while the figure of Tie Mo already vanished from everyone’s sight, turning into a beam of white light and plunging deep into the Desolate Ancient Forest.

Tie Mo had fled! The power displayed by Xiao Chen in this battle had threatened him, making him decide to retreat now and plan for the long term. As the battle envoy of the Iron Hoof Tribe, he didn’t just rely solely on fighting in person to crush a small tribe. He believed that once he spread the news, countless tribes would come to help him annihilate the small tribe that had damaged his reputation.

"We won, our Chief defeated the Battle Envoy!"

A somewhat trembling voice broke the silence in the tribe.

"That damn Envoy fled, and the lives of over a hundred thousand tribespeople are safe!"

Many of the Gu Yuan Tribe’s people had vacuous eyes, as if they couldn’t believe their own eyes. The battle envoy who was wildly arrogant and even threatened to massacre the entire Gu Yuan Tribe had actually run away not daring to fight. A high ranking figure who represented the Sect Master’s Tribe and came from above, had been defeated by their chief and fled into the Great Wasteland, without regard for his own face.

As for the five brothers of the Qingsky Five Tigers family, who originally wanted to repay Xiao Chen’s kindness, they were even more stunned. The combat power drawn from Xiao Chen was simply against heaven’s will. He had, with the cultivation of the late phase of the Blood Refining Realm, defeated a warrior who was at the peak of the Blood Refining Realm, on the verge of making the final breakthrough. Only now did they truly realize the vast gap between themselves, as warriors in the late phase of the Blood Refining Realm, and Xiao Chen. The leftover energy from the previous fight alone was enough to critically wound them.

However, they understood that despite Xiao Chen’s defeat of the Battle Envoy, the disaster for the Gu Yuan Tribe had already been laid. The Battle Envoy was the middle ranked representative of the Iron Hoof Tribe in the Great Wasteland.

No matter the reason for provoking the large-scale battle today, for the Iron Hoof War Division, it was perceived as the Gu Yuan Tribe challenging the dignity of the upper states, which would be absolutely suppressed. Just like, would anyone care about the life or death of an ant under their feet?

Moreover, due to the Battle Envoy Tie Mo’s greed for the young Pegasus, he would never rest until he was successful. As one of the five Ten-Thousand Men Leaders of the Iron Hoof War Division, he had myriad ways to crush the Gu Yuan Tribe. This brutal truth stemmed from the power imposed by the upper states of the Sect Master’s Tribe.

Besides, fundamentally speaking, the Gu Yuan Tribe was a subordinate tribe under the rule of the Iron Hoof Tribe. Eight hundred years ago, when the first chief established the tribe and opened up its territory, he traveled to Iron Hoof City to inscribe the tribe’s name on the Clan Stele there, establishing the relationship of subordination between the Gu Yuan Tribe and the Iron Hoof Tribe. The entire fate of the tribe was suppressed within Iron Hoof City. If Tie Mo erased the records of the Gu Yuan Tribe from the Clan Stele, then the Gu Yuan Tribe would become a drifting tribe in the Great Wasteland, a battle division not recognized by the Sect Master’s Tribe.

Even if Xiao Chen were a person of unmatched talent, he hasn’t been a cultivator for long enough and would be unable to resist the power of the Iron Hoof Tribe.

The erasure of the tribal record on the Clan Stele signified the Iron Hoof Tribe’s non-recognition of the Gu Yuan Tribe, which meant that they would have no place to stand in this wilderness. They could even be expelled from their territory and forced to fend for themselves in even more remote, desolate lands. And at the same time, how could that Battle Envoy Tie Mo not kick them while they’re down?

Feeling Tie Mo’s aura disappear deep into the wilderness, the boiling blood in Xiao Chen’s body finally calmed down. His eyes scanned the tribe, which had been affected by the large-scale battle, witnessing desolation everywhere, and heart-wrenching cries emerging from the ruins.

Even though it had been just one strike, both Xiao Chen and the Battle Envoy had exerted their full strength. The enormous shock wave produced by the clashing of their hot and cold energies had destroyed around a third of the buildings in the city. Some tribespeople were caught off guard by the aftermath of the fight and seriously injured, plunging the entire tribe into chaos.

Keeping his cool, Xiao Chen moved his mind, and the glowing green light on his body slowly faded and disappeared. The green light inside his war bones gradually retracted, and the Bronze War Body that had been more than ten feet tall slowly dissipated, emitting a taste of desolate eternity, and finally disappearing deep into the war bones.

However, in just a few short moments, Xiao Chen felt his energy fade away to the point of exhaustion. A severe weakness surged within him, his bronze battle body had far exceeded his expectations. The peak strike he had just used would have crushed even a normal warrior at the peak of the Blood Refining Realm.

Taking a deep breath to suppress the empty feeling within him, Xiao Chen spoke weakly, "Third Elder, arrange for our warriors to rescue the injured tribespeople as soon as possible, clean up the stone houses damaged in the battle, and help everyone settle down. For those who were injured or fell in battle, we need to offer resources for their families as soon as possible to soothe the people’s hearts!"

"Grand Elder, send a message to the Guardian Clan Soldiers, the leaders of the Thousands, and the five Elders leading conquests. After exterminating the foreign stray warriors at any cost, they should rush back to the tribe as quickly as possible!"

The recent battle had split the central stone tower of the Gu Yuan Tribe in half, reducing it to ruins. Fortunately, the lower two levels were still intact. After these words, Xiao Chen struggled to turn and walk towards the tower. After entering it, a somewhat weak voice came from within.

"The Grand Elder and the Second Elder, come in, we have matters to discuss!"

Splurt!

Entering the stone tower, Xiao Chen trembled, a mouthful of blood spewing out.

"Tribe Leader!"

"Brother Xiao"

Those who entered the stone tower were not only the two elders, but also Mu Qinglin and Lin Cai Er. Seeing Xiao Chen seriously injured and about to collapse, they were shocked. They rushed forward to support him.

At this moment, Xiao Chen’s face was as pale as paper, revealing a grave look. It was clear that he had also suffered heavy injuries. However, he had been forcefully suppressing it in order to intimidate the War Soldier and reassure the people.

Now he could no longer hold on. In order to defeat the war soldier earlier, Xiao Chen had to consume several Blood Refining Realm pills to forcibly increase his blood energy. Originally, under the state of the Bronze Battle Body, Xiao Chen’s physical body was sturdy.

The side effects of forcibly enhancing his battle strength finally showed. Originally, under the Bronze Battle Body, his body’s energy and blood were like a tough meridian, his physical body stable. Even with the impact of the potent medicinal power, his body remained sturdy. But once the War Body concealed, the originally suppressed medicinal impacts revealed themselves, fracturing patterns within his body.

But in the path of martial arts, there are no shortcuts. What isn’t yours will never be yours. During the fierce battle with the War Soldier, he too had suffered heavy injuries from the violent shockwaves. In order to deter Iron Hoof, Xiao Chen had even forced down the boiling blood within him. Fortunately, Iron Hoof eventually retreated out of fear of Xiao Chen’s unknown capabilities.

After swallowing a healing pill, Xiao Chen sat cross-legged on the ground, circulating his cultivation techniques for a long time. A trace of blood color finally appeared on his pale face, causing the others to finally relax.

Now that Gu Yuan Tribe had suffered such a calamity, if Xiao Chen were to be unable to support himself due to his severe injuries, what would become of their tribe?
