Chapter 350: Chapter 340: Conquering the Separated Units! (Wee Hours Update)_1

A miasma of blood and gore hung heavily in the air, accompanied by the stench of decay. However, right now, Queyue Ming had no capacity to worry about these, he hurriedly bowed to Xiao Chen, "Thank you, sir. The Queyue Clan is deeply indebted to you."

Gratitude filled his eyes at this moment, the dire circumstances had taken an unexpected turn. If it hadn’t been for Xiao Chen, several of his tribe members from the Queyue Scattered Tribe would have fallen victim to the beasts today.

This young warrior of unknown origin in front of him was probably even stronger than he had initially assumed. Just the extraordinary and otherworldly azure steed alone indicated his exceptional background.

With just a casual stab, he had killed the Azure Serpent Beast, a two-star beast that was a disaster for Queyue. He was incredibly mighty!

"Thank you for your help, sir."

It wasn’t just Queyue Ming, but the two children who had also been shaken awake from their trauma were also bowing to Xiao Chen in gratitude. The life-threatening danger they had just experienced felt like they had fallen into an endless pit, yet they were pulled back by Xiao Chen.

"If you truly wish to visit the ruins of the Dragon Fall Ancient City, I am willing to guide you there!"

Xiao Chen saved the lives of two young members of the tribe, and this made Queyue Ming thankful. It seemed as if he had made a substantial resolution in his heart as he spoke.

"No way, let me go instead for Brother Ming. Sir, you only need one guide. I also know the way to the ruins. At that moment, one of the young men hurriedly interjected.

"That’s right, Brother Ming. You can’t go. If you leave, our Queyue Tribe will only have one senior warrior—the chief Centurion—left. How will he resist the evil beasts and the potential attack from the Clear Mountain Scattered Tribe living miles away, who have always wanted to annex our hunting grounds?

Xiao Chen said nothing about the argument happening in front of him. This was an unwelcome situation that had happened before in many small tribes across the Desolate Wilds, including the Gu Yuan Tribe.

In small tribes like these, if a powerful force or warrior met with an accident or demise, it would spell a catastrophe.

...

Soon, Xiao Chen followed Queyue Ming to the assembly point of his scattered tribe. As expected, the Queyue Clan was incredibly weak. They barely managed to form a squadron of one hundred war soldiers.

He further observed that the other warriors that could qualify as war soldiers were all middle-aged or older, with limited potential for future growth.

Even more, the entire tribe had a meagre population of about 2000 people. As for their power, it could barely hold itself together. Xiao Chen did not pay much heed to it.

"Sir, once my elder brother returns from hunting, I’ll handle the aftermath here and then set off with you to the deep mountain range and head towards the ancient ruins."

After reprimanding the chatty warriors around him, Queyue Ming once again addressed Xiao Chen. His words carried a tone of determination, as if he wasn’t going to return.

"Are you scared?" Xiao Chen asked in a soft voice.

"Yes, there are monstrous beasts deep within the mountain range. Our Queyue Scattered Tribe has suffered greatly from those beasts for centuries. We lose clan members to them every single year."

Queyue Ming replied honestly.

"After expressing your fear, why did you still agree to accompany me to the Dragon Fall Ancient Land ruins?"

At this moment, Xiao Chen looked upon the burly man in front of him with admiration. He could sense the turbulence within him, unlike the calm displayed on his face.

"Sir, you have saved members of my Queyue Scattered Tribe. You have shown us great kindness. I, Queyue Ming, am not an ungrateful man."

Even though he didn’t understand why Xiao Chen asked such a question, Queyue Ming replied earnestly.

= "Good!"

At this moment, Xiao Chen’s admiration for Queyue Ming only grew stronger.

Xiao Chen nodded his approval and addressed him, "First, tell me the details about the Dragon Fall Ancient Land. Once I’ve investigated what you’ve told me, I’ll consider taking your Queyue Clan into my Gu Yuan Battle Division."

What!

"Sir, you’re the leader of a clan?" Staring blankly at Xiao Chen, Queyue Ming looked utterly incredulous.

"What, you don’t believe me?" Xiao Chen retorted.

"No, no, not at all!"

At this moment, Queyue Ming was tingling with excitement. The young warrior standing before him was the leader of a tribe.

"I do believe you, sir."

Remembering Xiao Chen slaying the Azure Serpent Beast with a single strike, it became apparent that the tribe he held command over wasn’t just any average tribe, but a lower-grade war tribe. Only a lower-grade war tribe could have a Blood Refining Realm Warrior. The only other Blood Refining Realm Warrior he had seen was the tribal chief of the Xi Ting War Tribe, located hundreds of miles away. Yet, even he could only admire that warrior from afar.

The chief of the Xi Ting War Tribe was only at the early stage of the Blood Refining Realm, with not even one complete division of war masters. Yet, even so, they were considered the most powerful human war tribe within a few hundred miles radius. But, Xiao Chen’s aura was many times stronger than that tribe leader. One could only imagine how powerful his tribe must be.

"If I take you to the Dragon Fall Ancient City ruins, will you truly integrate my Queyue Scattered Tribe into your powerful tribe?"

After some moments of silence during which his excitement settled, Queyue Ming cautiously asked again.

"What, are you unwilling?" Xiao Chen asked nonchalantly.

"Willing, of course, we’re willing! I, Queyue Ming, on behalf of my elder brother Queyue Deng and all the members of our tribe, thank you for your kindness."

Queyue Ming trembled and immediately kowtowed. This was no joke—joining a powerful human war tribe that was even mightier than the Xi Ting War Tribe in their neighborhood made sense. They couldn’t be unwilling. Even when his hunting elder brother came back and heard this, he would undoubtedly concur.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Queyue Ming knelt down and began to kowtow to Xiao Chen, expressing their respect and gratitude by banging his head on the ground.

"Alright, get up now!"

Xiao Chen didn’t mind at all, and asked him to rise. The next moment, his eyes grew stern, tinged with a hint of ruthlessness that instantly made the excited Queyue Ming sober up—as if he were thrown into an icy cave.

"Si... Sir."

"You know the consequences if you can’t complete the task, don’t you?"

Xiao Chen’s voice was filled with an icy coldness that engulfed Queyue Ming, who replied hurriedly: "Please trust me, sir. I’ll definitely lead you into the ruins of the Dragon Fall Ancient City. If there’s any treachery, you can kill me without any qualms."

"Sir, you might want to hear more about the ruins of the ancient city. Once my brother comes back from hunting, I’ll be ready to set off with you."

At these words, Xiao Chen nodded, indicating him to continue.
