Chapter 637: Chapter 623: The Imperial Command from Ancestral Court, Xiao Chen obeys the order (Additional update for the purple thief and guest!)_1

(All fans of Xiasha are real sisters, welcome to join the group!!) In the Gu Yuan Tribe Mountain City, within the Blue Stone Garden.

Xiao Chen is teaching his precious disciple Zi Yuan. The child has grown rapidly after her recuperation days. The Purple Lotus Spiritual Fire that was generated within her was already establishing a connection with her, albeit a minor one. She hasn’t completely commanded it willingly, and it hasn’t developed fully according to her desires, but this is a significant step forward.

At this moment, Xiao Chen knits his brows as he senses a slight fluctuation in the space outside the mountain city. As the clan leader of the Gu Yuan Tribe, Xiao Chen’s destiny is intertwined with the overall destiny of the tribe. The fortune of the Gu Yuan Tribe has been nurtured over the years and has gradually integrated with the land within a radius of thousands of li outside the mountain city. That’s why he, even while being in the tribe, can sense the fluctuations occurring from the outside of the mountain city.

However, a moment later, Xiao Chen’s previously tense mind suddenly relaxes, because he feels a familiar presence.

Gently patting the child’s head, Xiao Chen’s figure turned into a stream of light, sweeping towards the city’s exterior. Not only him, but all the warriors of the Gu Yuan Tribe followed suit.

"Clan Leader!" Some tribespeople that were hunting in the mountains saluted when they saw Xiao Chen’s figure. But they didn’t dare to speak and only stared at the brutal warship in the sky.

"Haha." However, Xiao Chen gave a loud laugh. His figure positioned a hundred feet away from the bronze warship, loudly greeting, "Xiao Chen, the leader of the Gu Yuan Tribe, is honored to meet the Ancestral Court Battle Envoy."

Ancestral Court Battle Envoy!

Upon hearing Xiao Chen’s voice, the warriors behind him couldn’t help but gasp for cold air. Ancestral Court Battle Envoy! It really was the Ancestral Court Battle Envoy!

No wonder they used a void warship for traveling. Only the Human Ancestral Court had such grandeur in the entire Border Wilderness Domain!

"Brother Xiao, no need for such formality."

Soon after, a hearty laugh was heard from within the bronze warship. A middle-aged warrior in blood-colored armor appeared at the bow—none other than the Blood Wind Respecter himself!

"Blood Brother, representing the Human Ancestral Court and gracing the Gu Yuan Tribe with your presence is truly an honor. What orders from the Ancestral Court would Blood Brother bestow us this time?"

Once seated, the Gu Yuan Tribe’s many elders looked curiously at the Blood Wind, the Ancestral Court’s Battle Envoy, but wouldn’t dare to be disrespectful. Each one of them sat upright in their stone chairs, listening closely to the conversation between Xiao Chen and Blood Wind.

"The first purpose of this visit, as you already know, is the master’s decree to each grand battle unit to send Zhong Lou Realm warriors to join the Imperial Celestial Soldiers. I wonder if Clan Leader Xiao has already arranged candidates?"

During this serious discussion, Blood Wind became formal.

Xiao Chen then introduced the Qin family’s five brothers to Blood Wind. He also informed Blood Wind about the brothers’ shared mindset and their ability to fight above their level. This made Blood Wind extremely delighted.

"Excellent! Our Imperial Celestial Soldiers use battle arrays, including three-men arrays, five-person arrays, ten-men arrays, and even hundred-men arrays. Having a five-men array with perfect synchronization, the power that can be unleashed is a multiple of individual power!" After hearing Xiao Chen’s description, Blood Wind felt incredibly ecstatic.

Xiao Chen was also familiar with battle arrays, but his Gu Yuan Tribe didn’t have any related inheritance. A battle array was a secret technique that allowed some warriors to unite and form an array that could unleash incredibly powerful attacks.

Not only could battle arrays increase a warrior’s fighting power, but they could also reduce casualties. Xiao Chen was highly interested. It was as if Blood Wind knew what was on Xiao Chen’s mind. He changed the subject and asked with a slight chuckle, "Brother Xiao, are you very interested in battle arrays?"

Xiao Chen didn’t conceal anything and nodded in agreement. His interest was clear. He then heard Blood Wind continue, "Initially, I thought Brother Xiao would manage to send two Zhong Lou Realm warriors to join the Celestial Soldiers according to the Ancestral Court’s decree. I didn’t expect Brother to be so supportive. You even doubled the number of warriors. I will be generous too."

"However, battle arrays belong to the Ancestral Court’s secret techniques. If Human War Tribes want to obtain them, they need to accumulate enough military merits. I must not break the rules established by the Ancestral Court. Here I have a battle array named Eight-directions Rotation Array found in the relic. It requires eight warriors as the array with mutual protection and rotational attacks, which can preserve strength to the maximum limit and slay enemies."

Xiao Chen was surprised at this. After some exchanges, he finally understood why Blood Wind brought out the battle array. It turned out that he was commanded to form a new Celestial Soldiers Squad and needed to recruit soldiers himself.

Even though the Ancestral Court’s decree was non-negotiable and no tribe dared to shirk this responsibility, most tribes want to preserve their strength. They’re not selfish, but fear that top warriors will be drawn by the Ancestral Court and their tribes will face crisis. They do have some small calculations, but they didn’t expect Xiao Chen to be so generous and execute the Ancestral Court’s orders fully, even doubling the number of warriors.

Xiao Chen did not articulate his initial intention when he asked his five brothers to join the Ancestral Court together, which was for the sake of mutual protection.

"As for other war formations, as long as Brother Xiao gains enough combat merit in the future, they can all be exchanged from the Ancestral Court, even the Void Battleships can be obtained from the Ancestral Court!"

Seeing the curious gaze of the crowd, Blood Wind couldn’t help but rub his nose in embarrassment, saying, "The bronze battleship outside was borrowed from my master. However, it won’t be long before my combat merit accumulates enough to exchange for a void ship from the Ancestral Court as my vehicle!"

Xiao Chen couldn’t help but chuckle. Blood Wind, though he practiced for centuries, was sincere to his core. This could be seen from his emphasis on accumulating enough combat merits to exchange for a battleship.

"Oh right, the Human Emperor’s Palace has already issued an order. To inspire human warriors to fight bravely against aliens, from now on until the end of the Hundred Realms’ War, all combat merits earned will be doubled!"

Blood Wind’s words finally made Xiao Chen understand why the combat merit he earned for killing the Ghost Tribe on the Void Path had been doubled. The decisions made by the Human Emperor’s Palace reminded him of some motivational measures from the future. It seems that such existences persist regardless of time and space.

"Alright, besides the issue of summoning heavenly warriors, I have other business here." Blood Wind paused briefly, then continued, his tone heavy.

"Gu Yuan Combat Unit of the Border Wilderness, let Xiao Chen take orders!"

With Blood Wind’s bellow, a purple-green token appeared in his hand. The token bore two ancient characters, signifying "Ancestral Court".

"Xiao Chen accepts the command!"

Xiao Chen stood up, followed by a group of tribal elders who also stood out and bowed in response.

"The arrival of the Hundred Realms’ River is imminent, and aliens run rampant, ravaging our Border Wilderness. The Human Ancestral Court, due to its exhaustion, has divided the vast regions of the Border Wilderness, assigning different combat units to jointly defend and eradicate the remnants of the aliens hiding in the Wild Mountain Range!"

"Although the Gu Yuan unit of the Border Wasteland only established a clan a few years ago, they are flourishing and filled with potential. Hence, Clan Leader Xiao Chen of the Gu Yuan Tribe is commanded to take on the responsibility of guarding the seventy thousand mile human realm land in the Southwest Region of the Border Wilderness. The middle-grade Iron Hoof Combat Clan, the middle-grade Blue Mountain Combat Clan, the middle-grade Red Bear Combat Clan, the middle-grade Transcendent Halberd Combat Clan, are all temporarily under the jurisdiction of the Gu Yuan Tribal Combat Unit, dedicating all their efforts to eliminating the remnants of aliens in their domain!"

The Blue Mountain, the Red Bear, the Transcendent Halberd, and other combat units are middle-grade combat units on the vast land southeast of the Iron Hoof Combat Unit, neighboring the Iron Hoof unit.

Assigning powerful combat units from different regions of the Border Wilderness to jointly guard the Wild Mountain range has been a precedent in the Border Wilderness. However, Xiao Chen did not expect that he would be the sole leader in charge of a major area of land.

In the past, before the rise of the Gu Yuan Tribe, these combat units were all under the jurisdiction of the Maple Battle Unit in the Border Wilderness, the Maple Battle Unit being ranked the seventh top-tier combat unit in the Border Wilderness.

Xiao Chen didn’t expect that the Ancestral Court would reassign this region to the Gu Yuan Tribe. Apparently, his promotion to the state of the Sage, although his tribal position had not yet been raised, had already been recognized by the Ancestral Court.

"From the day the decree is issued, Xiao Chen of the Gu Yuan Tribe has the right to summon war masters and warriors from the other four combat units to conquer the Wilderness!"

As Blood Wind’s words fell, watching the Gu Yuan tribespeople still in shock, he couldn’t help but softly urge, "Chief Xiao, won’t you accept the command?"

The purple-green color of the token gave off a cold sensation. Xiao Chen sensed a faint aura hidden deep within it.

"The Gu Yuan Combat Unit accepts the command!"

"The token from the Ancestral Court contains the luck of our human race. The aliens simply cannot forge it. With this token, if the four combat units don’t comply, Brother Xiao has the rights to behead them first and report afterwards!"

"Also, the decree of the Ancestral Court has been sent to all the mid-level combat units. Soon, the clan leaders of these four major clans will come to the Gu Yuan Tribe to pay their respects to you, the newly-appointed feudal lord!"

"With command over four units, you have the right to conquer the Wilderness within seventy thousand miles!"

"Brother Blood, you’re overselling me. I’m merely a feudal lord serving the orders of the Ancestral Court, temporarily taking up the responsibility of eliminating the aliens. Once the aliens are eliminated, I will naturally hand over the token from the Ancestral Court to Elder Ming Hin."

"Haha!" Blood Wind laughed and then said no more. "We must eradicate the remnants in the Wilderness during this clearance operation, otherwise, when the battle in the Realm River begins, the risk of being attacked from the rear will arise."

"Of course. The aliens harbor unyielding malice towards our human race. We don’t know how many aliens are hiding in the Wilderness. They should have been swept out completely a long time ago!" Xiao Chen agreed with Blood Wind’s statement. He was slightly caught off guard by the decree from the Ancestral Court but it fell in line with his wishes. If the Gu Yuan Tribe were integrated into the control of other high-level combat units instead, he would feel uncomfortable.
