Chapter 762: Chapter 748: The War Envoy’s Purpose, The New Court Master! (Seeking Subscriptions 4/8)_1

[Looking for votes, whoosh whoosh whoosh!]

As this ancient, decayed figure swept towards the Gu Yuan Tribe Mountain City, there were sounds of piercing through the skies within the Gu Yuan Tribe which attracted the attention of the tribe’s people and many rangers outside the mountain city. They all raised their eyes to look at what was happening in the sky.

At the forefront was Xiao Chen, followed by seven respected dignitaries of the Gu Yuan Tribe. Behind them were the masters of various halls and other martial artists whose strength reached beyond the Four Heavens of the Towering Realm. It was a truly grand occasion - the entire strength of the tribe was mobilized, and it was only in the Human Ancestral Court of the Border Wasteland that such a grand ceremonial greeting could be found outside of the tribe.

Outside the mountain city, watching the many warriors of the Gu Yuan tribe led by Xiao Chen, the warrior from the ancestral court stopped hundreds of yards from the city.

"Gu Yuan Tribe Clan Leader Xiao Chen, pay respects to the Ancestral Court’s Battle Envoy!"

A hundred yards from the old man, Xiao Chen bowed. Behind him, the Gu Yuan Tribe warriors also bowed in respect.

Although Xiao Chen hadn’t seen this old man who served as a battle envoy of the Ancestral Court before, he felt the frail, decayed energy emanating from him. He guessed that this man was a warrior from a bygone age, who had recently awakened after a long sleep in the Ancestral Court.

However, Xiao Chen was constantly speculating to understand the reasons for the arrival of the Ancestral Court’s Battle Envoy this time. He did not expect that after his speech at the clan conference, a strong warrior from the Ancestral Court would appear so soon.

Three years ago, since the Ancestral Court issued an Imperial Command, Xiao Chen was tasked to guard the Desolate Wilds near the Gu Yuan Tribe. Since then, there hadn’t been any new command issued from the Ancestral Court for the Border Wasteland City, let alone for the Gu Yuan Tribe or even the Bai Ze and Sky Terrace Battle Divisions. Even when middle and high-ranking Battle Divisions were destroyed, there was no response from the Ancestral Court, so it’s no wonder that Xiao Chen was now constantly guessing the purpose of the Battle Envoy’s visit.

"It’s quite remarkable. I had not expected that after my two thousand years of sleep, upon waking up, I’d learn of a new Battle Division rising in the Border Wasteland. In just a few short years, it has grown to this level of influence. Although it has not yet been promoted to the rank of Marquis Clan, it already possesses the might of a Marquis Battle Division, which is indeed a lucky occurrence for our human race."

The old man’s first words confirmed Xiao Chen’s speculation: The figure before him was indeed a strong fighter from the Ancestral Court, who had fallen into a long sleep in a past era and had recently been awakened.

The old

man’s calm words resonated all around. For those below, they couldn’t help but inhale sharply. This was a powerful warrior from two thousand years ago. Back in that era, perhaps their own tribes didn’t even exist.

The old man’s cloudy eyes swept over the many warriors behind Xiao Chen. Although his gaze was dull, a sharp light flashed in his eyes. But at this moment, his heart was trembling like a stormy sea. The strength of the Gu Yuan Tribe was indeed astonishing.

In the Ancestral Court, warriors like him who fell into a long sleep would be informed of the era they were in and the current state of the Great Wasteland when they woke. After all, when they fell into sleep, their body’s consumption would be reduced to the minimum, their existing memories would also be halted right at the moment they fell asleep.

Nowadays in the Border Wasteland Ancestral Court, among those awakened, the Gu Yuan Tribe’s meteoric rise and swift accumulation of strength equivalent to a Marquis Battle Division was well known among the older generations of warriors who had been revived.

However, at this moment, as the old man observed the force exerted by the Gu Yuan Tribe, he saw it was many times more powerful than rumoured, which caused him utter disbelief. A tribe that had risen in less than ten years had ushered out seven respected major powerhouses, which he would have found hard to believe if not for his status as a Battle Envoy.

Not to mention Xiao Chen, who stood on the same level as the old man. Yet, differing from the old man who was already in his twilight years, Xiao Chen was like a newly risen sun, whose true brilliance had not yet fully emerged.

After these respected personages, there were more than a dozen martial artists who had reached the Fourth or Fifth Heavens of the Towering Realm. If not for the invading aliens, the Gu Yuan Tribe would have the capability to dominate the entire Border Wasteland with their strength.

At that moment, the old man looked again towards the Sky Vault above the Gu Yuan Tribe Mountain City. The Purple Gas, like a heavenly column, and the roaring Qi Spirit Serpent all appeared stunningly brilliant. Even amidst the crisis of alien invasion, the fortune of the Gu Yuan Tribe was still awe-inspiring. It seemed as though the old man suddenly understood something as the astonishment in his eyes disappeared, replaced by a look of realization.

"Before I fell into sleep, I was known as the Blood Bone Old Man." As the eyes of the old man lost their shock, they fell on Xiao Chen once again and he spoke again.

"The Gu Yuan tribe is extremely honoured by the arrival of the battle envoy from the ancestral court."

"Haha, after I woke up, I heard that the Gu Yuan Tribe’s Clan Leader Xiao Chen is unmatched in combat and holds the supreme martial spirit in the entire Border Wasteland. There’s no need to be so formal. Apart from acting as a Battle Envoy of the Ancestral Court, I am just an old warrior who is at the end of his days. It is you all who are different. The safety of the Border Wasteland lies in your hands not in mine."

The Blood Bone Old Man waved off the respect shown by the people of the Gu Yuan Tribe, and his words were rather candid.

"Elder, please follow me to our Gu Yuan Tribe Mountain City." Upon hearing the old man’s words, Xiao Chen respectfully invited the Blood Bone Old Man into the Gu Yuan Tribe Mountain City.

"Alright!" The Blood Bone Old Man nodded gently. Although he and Xiao Chen were both ranked as venerable elders, his strength was slightly superior to Xiao Chen’s. Even if they were not comparing their battle strength, it was not inappropriate for Xiao Chen to address him as an elder.

The elders of the Gu Yuan Tribe welcomed the Blood Bone Old Man into the tribe, leaving the multitude of warriors below to chatter and speculate about the purpose of the arrival of a battle envoy from the Ancestral Court.

"In my opinion, the Ancestral Court is issuing an imperial command for the Gu Yuan Tribe to mobilize their troops and wage a bloody war against the foreign tribes. Now the foreign tribes are so rampant, haven’t you heard the news over the past few days? All of it is unfavorable news for our human tribe. The Bottom-Rank Battle Division aside, even Middle-Rank, Top-Rank, and even the Marquis-Rank Battle Division, has the risk of being exterminated. At present, where in our Human Realm is safe!

"Indeed, not to mention our Border Wasteland, even if we’re talking about the entire Human World that’s in the Eastern Wasteland region. Where could be free from harm? It’s fortunate for us to have arrived near the Gu Yuan Tribe ahead of time and have their protection to avoid the descent of powerful foreign tribes. Now, even the entire tribe is at risk of being exterminated by foreign tribes, not to mention us, the wanderers."

"If only we could join the Gu Yuan Tribe. Even if we are to face a bloody battle with the foreign tribes in the future, and die in the Great Wasteland, our family members would still have a place to live. As long as the Gu Yuan Tribe exists, they can survive."

This was the voice of a wanderer who had a family to support. He came from generations of wanderers. Now, his old father has passed away, and he had underage children. This heavy burden sparked worries in the middle-aged wanderer’s eyes.

In the Tribal Grand Hall.

The Blood Bone Old Man did not take advantage of his envoy status to take the main seat, instead, he took the head seat to the right of Xiao Chen.

"Elder, may I know what command the Ancestral Court has issued this time? Is it to have our Gu Yuan Tribe deploy forces to suppress the foreign tribes?"

After taking his seat, Xiao Chen anxiously asked. The elders of the Gu Yuan Tribe also focused their attention on the Blood Bone Old Man, waiting for him to convey the Imperial Command.

"My purpose in coming here this time is not to ask your tribe to send troops, but to invite Clan Leader Xiao to the Ancestral Court. The crisis brought by the foreign tribes is imminent. In order to safeguard the Border Wasteland, the Eastern Wasteland Human Emperor Palace has appointed a new court leader for our Border Wasteland Human Tribe’s Ancestral Court. He will be arriving in the Border Wasteland soon."

"A new court leader!"

The next moment, Xiao Chen exclaimed in surprise. The position of the leader of the Border Wasteland Human Tribe’s Ancestral Court has been vacant for thousands of years, and it has been always held in proxy by Venerable Minghe, the great ancient elder of the Ancestral Court. In the past, Venerable Minghe’s strength was enough to suppress the Border Wasteland,

However, the crisis brought by the foreign tribes has become sharper than ever. Even though the Border Wasteland is the most remote area in the entire Eastern Wasteland, it is still impossible to escape the attention of the foreign tribes. Venerable Minghe’s strength appears to be somewhat frail and powerless. The Human Tribe’s Eastern Emperor Palace appointing a new court leader is an inevitable choice.

"In addition, those of us who just woke up from our slumbers wanted to meet the real Clan Leader Xiao. Ever since we woke up, your Xiao Clan and the Gu Yuan Tribe have been continually spoken of by us old folks."

For these ancient martial artists, who have exhausted their potential and willingly sealed themselves in the Blood Stone in order to wake up and exchange their broken bodies for the peace of the human tribe when the human tribe faces a crisis, Xiao Chen also held them in high regard.

Moreover, to summon him to the Ancestral Court, there is no need to send a Venerable One from the seventh stage of the Towering Realm. This intention seems too grand.

"Now, with the foreign tribes pressing closer with every step, and the arrival of the new court leader, we should discuss how to conduct ourselves in the face of the crisis faced by the human tribes of the Border Wasteland. Your Gu Yuan Tribe now has the qualifications to collaborate with the Ancestral Court to hunt throughout the Border Wasteland."

"Not only your Gu Yuan Tribe, but other tribes such as Bai Ze and Sky Terrace, have also received imperial commands."

"Xiao Chen, receive your command!" At once, Xiao Chen bowed and intoned as he accepted the bronze-colored token from the Blood Bone Old Man’s hand. When his Combat Qi entered the token, a faint, but unmistakable aura was revealed. This was left behind by Venerable Minghe, the Grand Elder of the Ancestral Court.

Now that a crisis has descended upon the Ancestral Court, the commands issued by the Ancestral Court all contain a special aura left behind by Venerable Minghe. Others cannot counterfeit this, of course. Now that the new court leader is about to arrive, the future instructions will bear the mark of the new court leader!
