Chapter 343: Chapter 333 Return to the Hidden Valley! (First Update)_1

In the eastern extreme of the Giant Stone Valley, mountain ranges stretched out, with peaks lining continuously, dotted with ancient forests. From time to time, a dull roar of beasts resounded from within them, like thunder or like a tsunami. This mountain range spanned approximately ten thousand miles, but it was an insignificant branch of the vast Luo Long Mountain Range that stretched diagonally across the southeast of the continent.

Amidst these giant mountain ranges, ancient trees towered in the desolate and foggy wilds. Inside the dense jungle, there was always a gloomy feeling. Sunshine struggled to penetrate it, making the mysterious forest even more oppressive. Swamps and poisonous insects were common occurrences. Even the periphery of the mountain range was not a place easily accessible by ordinary clansmen.

In the midst of this dense jungle, a Human Race army of over a thousand warriors advanced, led by a man dressed in cyan armor, wielding a black spear. He floated more than a yard off the ground, his mount stepping on the void. Behind him were seven figures shrouded in blood qi. Following them were nearly a thousand war soldiers. At this moment, every face displayed exhaustion, seemingly having just come out of a fierce battle, with some of them heavily injured and swaying atop their mounts.

This was the third day after Xiao Chen massacred ten thousand people, stunning the Great Wasteland. After the Iron Hoof’s tribal leader’s projection dispersed that day, the various tribal war soldiers joined in the encirclement and suppression of the Gu Yuan Tribe also scattered. They lost their command, and even though Tie Mo tried to coerce and lure them, he couldn’t mobilize any soldiers.

Without a doubt, it wouldn’t be long before Tie Mo’s name would spread throughout the Giant Stone Valley - known for seizing through cunning and deceit, harming the innocent, and disregarding the greater cause of the Human Race for personal gain. His reputation was truly wretched.

Even more, Xiao Chen’s killing of ten thousand people, causing rivers of blood and the floating of weapons, greatly terrified everyone. Who dared to defy a prominent tribe openly if not a madman? The large-scale coalition of tribes that surrounded and suppressed rebel tribes disbanded, making even Tie Mo’s setup of the Gu Yuan Tribe fall flat and becoming a laughingstock of the Giant Stone Valley.

It also provided a breather for the Gu Yuan Tribe’s upcoming migration.

On that day, Xiao Chen attempted to confuse Tie Mo to siege his tribe, commanding Ding Shan, Dark Hall’s Tie Wen, and the Qiong Family’s five brothers to take the 12,000 slaves from their tribe to escape to the eastern extreme of Giant Stone Valley. The suspicious and cunning Tie Mo dispatched a second battle division to the eastern extreme. The injured warriors who followed were due to their movement. Fortunately, Xiao Chen arrived just in time, with combined strength, they defeated this division.

The only surprise for Xiao Chen was that the five visiting guest elders of the tribe didn’t leave but wanted to accompany Xiao Chen to Dragon Fall Ridge. For the Gu Yuan Tribe, everything in Dragon Fall Ridge was an unknown. At this moment, having an additional five late-phase Blood Refining Realm Warriors would greatly enhance the tribe’s strength.

At this moment, Xiao Chen finally recalled the Qiong Family Head’s mysterious smile when he commanded them to escort over ten thousand slaves to the eastern extreme. So they had already made a decision.

Upon entering the Desolate Ancient Forest, the original tens of thousands of slaves dispersed and fled. Fortunately, they had already completed the task of confusing Tie Mo. Xiao Chen let them flee, and whether they could survive in the Desolate Ancient Forest would depend on their own fate.

Moreover, the journey from the bloody battlefield to rendezvous with Ding Shan and the other war soldiers was also not peaceful. They were blocked by Xiang Lieshan from the Bao Xiang Tribe. Xiang Lieshan seemed to have hidden his strength, as if to ambush Xiao Chen.

They were fighting a Peak of the Blood-Refining Realm warrior, along with three thousand elite soldiers. Their blood qi filled the air and they were as sharp as blades. Xiao Chen, engaged in a bloody battle, had to fight with injure for injure. Eventually, he broke through the Bao Xiang Tribe’s siege.

The defeat this time round can be seen as a devastating blow to the prestige of the Iron Hoof War Division. For them, the only way to deter all the tribes in the Great Wasteland is to completely eliminate Xiao Chen, even if it means forcibly expelling the Gu Yuan Tribe from the Iron Hoof War Division in a power show.

Five days later.

Xiao Chen finally arrived at the valley where the Gu Yuan Tribe had taken refuge. Fortunately, everything was normal, and no accidents had occurred during these days.

The small valley was filled with people, making it much noisier than before. You could even hear some voices quarreling.

The same low cave was filled with members of the Gu Yuan Tribe’s Blood Refining Realm Warriors. It was a bit crowded. This time, the Gu Yuan Tribe had taken the first step in their journey of tens of thousands of miles. Even if the Iron Hoof War Division were to attack again, they would still have at least a month’s buffer. By then, the Gu Yuan Tribe would have entered the Dragon Fall Ridge. They would establish a base and gather the luck of the entire tribe, ensuring that even if a Towering Realm Great Venerable from the Iron Hoof War Division appeared, Xiao Chen could still face it with the momentum of the entire tribe.

At this moment in the cave, there were the three elders, six chieftains, five conquest elders, five guest elders, two remaining guardian elders, the Dark Hall master, and the Hundred Herbs Shop master, all gathered in front of Xiao Chen.

"Everyone, we have done a great job in ensuring the migration of our tribe. However, our Gu Yuan Tribe is still in crisis. Although I have crushed the siege of War Master Iron Mo, and made a Heart Demon Oath in front of many tribes in the Great Wasteland, proving our tribe’s innocence, we are now in a state of life and death struggle with the Iron Hoof War Division. Hence, we need to work together and overcome this difficulty!"

"The Iron Hoof Tribe is despicable! They seized by force and caused our Gu Yuan Tribe to be cast away into the wilderness. They are rampant in their rule over this land!"

The complain resonated clearly in the confines of the cave. Seeing everyone looking at her, Lin Cai Er shrank behind Mu Qing, not caring about the angry glare from Lin Shan, the second elder.

"The Heavenly Horse is a symbol of the human clan’s strongest. It has the bloodline of the ancient giant dragon, noble and pure. If fate permits and this bloodline returns to its roots, it can even become a Heavenly Dragon Horse, an existence that can rival kings. Few beings on this earth can resist such a temptation, not even the Iron Hoof Tribe that rules this land. An animal king, if allowed to grow, can protect a tribe for tens of thousands of years. How can they tolerate the existence of a tribe that can surpass them?"

Xiao Chen slightly smiled without showing any annoyance. Over the past few days, the Gu Yuan Tribe has been living under the yoke of the Iron Hoof War Division, which has worn them down, even the Blood Refining Realm Warriors.

One does not fear the thief’s stealing, but rather, his coveting. The temptation that this young Heavenly Horse poses to the Iron Hoof War Division can’t be underestimated. Moreover, on this ancient land, survival is about the survival of the fittest. Thieves may be in the minority, but the real danger lies in the robbers. In the eyes of the strong ones, there is no need to hide.
