Chapter 917: Chapter 900 Ancestral Court Delivers News: The Frontier is in Turmoil! (Make-up 37)

Xiao Chen was ambushed by a foreign tribe monarch, to Venerable Minghe and Elder Shi, it was like thunder from a clear sky, truly leaving them incapable of reacting in time.

Especially for Elder Shi, Xiao Chen could be said to have climbed to his current heights under his watchful eye, but now he had actually fallen outside the realm of reality, his life or death unknown.

"Clan Leader, Xiao Chen was ambushed by a foreign tribe. Has the Divine Marquis Palace made no other moves?"

Finally, Elder Shi still couldn’t help asking, Xiao Chen had been conferred the title of God Marquis and had even gone to the Divine Marquis Palace to brand the God Marquis Seal. Now that his life or death was uncertain, the Divine Marquis Palace should, both sentimentally and reasonably, dispatch strong ones to the void world to search for Xiao Chen’s whereabouts.

"I have received no imperial command concerning the Divine Marquis Palace."

Upon hearing this, Ziyang God Marquis, however, slightly shook his head; the news of Xiao Chen being ambushed by a monarch of a foreign tribe reached him through the human monarchs stationed in the Eastern Wasteland South Region.

All God Marquises are branded with the God Marquis Seal at the Divine Marquis Palace. When they encounter danger, anomalies should arise concerning the seal left in the Divine Marquis Palace, and surely the warriors there will notice. But he didn’t know why the Divine Marquis Palace had not relayed even the slightest message.

In actuality, in the Human Ancestral Court, the status of a God Marquis is even higher than that of a Near Monarch Expert, and to the human race, each God Marquis is of immense importance. They cannot afford to lose even one lightly.

In the past, if a God Marquis of the Divine Marquis Palace encountered danger or was ambushed and fell at the hands of foreign tribes, the strong ones from the Divine Marquis Palace would certainly retaliate against the foreign tribes.

But somehow, this time Xiao Chen encountered an ambush by the foreign tribes, and the Divine Marquis Palace had neither dispatched the strong ones nor had any other messages come forth, which also puzzled Ziyang God Marquis.

"Is the Divine Marquis Palace not going to bother about the life or death of that lad Xiao Chen?"

Elder Shi was agitated, roaring in the Great Hall, even forgetting that the person he was in front of was the Ancestral Court Clan Leader, Ziyang God Marquis.

Before Elder Shi’s roar, the Great Hall was silent, but there was nothing that they could do.

The void world, limitless above and below, with no sense of direction, vast and boundless, even if they entered it, there would be a great chance of falling within it, let alone not knowing where Xiao Chen had fallen in the void world now.

"This message is presently only known by a few of us. Remember not to spread it outward to avoid unnecessary panic," the voice of Ziyang God Marquis rang out after a long while.

The foreign tribes were currently rampant, and Xiao Chen could be said to be a monument to the entire Border Wilderness Domain. If word got out that he was ambushed by a monarch of a foreign tribe, and his life or death was unknown, it would definitely be a blow to the morale of the warriors of the Border Wilderness Domain.

"Reporting to the Clan Leader, and the Elders, Stone Fang Venerable of the Gu Yuan Tribe requests an audience." Just then, a warrior outside the hall called out loudly.

Could it be that the Gu Yuan Tribe is already aware?

Hearing the shout from outside, a few people in the Great Hall exchanged glances, eyes revealing a hint of bewilderment. It was intriguing that at this time, a warrior from the Gu Yuan Tribe came to visit.

However, Ziyang God Marquis was certain he was the first to receive news of Xiao Chen’s ambush; this was a message personally passed down by a monarch, and there was no chance of it being leaked.

"We pay our respects to the Clan Leader and the Elders." Soon Stone Fang entered the Great Hall, bowing deeply in salute to several people.

"There’s no need for formalities."

Stone Fang stood up and without delay spoke, "Clan Leader, I bring news from my clan leader, he is not in grave danger."

What!

The words from Stone Fang instantly caused an outcry among the few in the hall.

"Are you speaking the truth?"

Elder Shi even stood up from the stone chair and approached Stone Fang, shouting loudly, "How do you know Xiao Chen is alright?"

Whirr!

Suddenly a jade plaque appeared in Stone Fang’s hand, resonating with a whirring sound.

"This is?"

This was indeed the token with the identity seal imprinted by Xiao Chen. Ziyang God Marquis had received the news of the ambush two days later, and it was only after two days that Xiao Chen had awakened and allowed Stone Fang to bring his branded Qi jade plaque to the Ancestral Court.

"This is Xiao Chen’s Qi, without a doubt!"

Seeing this jade plaque, Elder Shi finally relaxed, putting down his original worry.

"How is Xiao Chen now?" regaining his composure, Elder Shi immediately asked again.

"Our clan leader has suffered severe injuries and is now hiding in some place in the void world, receiving treatment for his wounds. He specifically sent a message asking me to come to the Ancestral Court to inform the Clan Leader and the Elders."

"Good! Good! Good!"

Elder Shi exclaimed in delight, joy apparent in his eyes.

"I knew that lad Xiao Chen is a person of great destiny; how could he fall so easily into the hands of the foreign tribes."

It was not just Elder Shi, but the other three people in the hall also showed relief in their eyes. Xiao Chen’s safety was incredibly important for the Border Wilderness Domain at current times.

This was no laughing matter. Now the Gu Yuan Tribe was the leading tribe in the Border Wastelands, and Xiao Chen was the one who had led them from obscurity to prominence. If something were to happen to him, they were very worried that the Gu Yuan Tribe would never recover.

"Has your clan leader sent back any other messages?" As everyone regained their composure, Ziyang God Marquis asked again.

"Lord of the court, my clan leader has also sent back word that his being ambushed in the Border Wasteland will surely cause a stir. Therefore, it might be better to take this opportunity to systematically reevaluate the entire Border Wasteland," Stone Fang’s voice sounded, pausing before he continued, "Especially those remnants of exotic clans hidden deep within the Border Wasteland, they might take advantage of the news of my clan leader’s ambush to stir up trouble. So, it might be wise to seize this chance to wipe them out in one fell swoop."

"Is this the Xiao Clan Leader’s idea?" Ziyang God Marquis inquired.

"It is indeed my clan leader’s intention. To avoid leaking any information, this purge will be carried out jointly by the Ancestral Court and our Gu Yuan Tribe. The other tribes of the Border Wasteland Region are not to be notified."

Stone Fang said once more with respect, but his heart was surging with emotion. Once upon a time, the Gu Yuan Tribe was just a small family with a population of less than ten thousand and a force of no more than a thousand soldiers. But now, they could stand on equal footing with the Ancestral Court of a region.

"When did the Xiao Clan Leader say he would return?"

"According to the message from our clan leader, he has been severely injured this time. It will be at least a month and at most three before he returns. Then, it will be time to raise our Gu Yuan forces and clean up the enemies’ lair!"

"Excellent!" A sharp light flashed in Ziyang God Marquis’s eyes as he spoke aloud.

The initial suppression of the news of Xiao Chen’s ambush had been necessary, but now that Xiao Chen’s safety was confirmed, it was no longer necessary to keep the news secret. Moreover, they wanted to use the news to lure the snakes out of their holes.

An hour later!

Stone Fang entered the Mountain and River Seal Space through the entrance within the Bronze Ancient City.

In the Blood Pond, Xiao Chen was still absorbing the essence transformed from various medicinal herbs, beast blood, and spirit fruits. Sensing Stone Fang’s return, he opened his eyes.

"Clan leader, the lord of the court has agreed to your proposal."

Seeing Xiao Chen open his eyes, Stone Fang spoke out.

"Except for a few elders, keep the news of the tribe leader’s safety strictly sealed. Only when our tribe’s warriors believe it will the outside world truly think the clan leader’s life and death are uncertain."

"Understood!" Soon Stone Fang left the Mountain and River Seal, returning to the tribe within the Bronze Ancient City.

This method of healing may not have been as effective as purely medicinal pills, but it was abundant in quantity, turning into a vast ocean of medicinal power. A vast amount of herbal essence was absorbed into his body, and Xiao Chen’s injuries were rapidly healing.

Although Xiao Chen’s War Body had been shattered by the violent aura, his flesh’s regenerative capabilities had begun to manifest due to being tempered twice. Now, healing was almost like plundering the essence of the spirit energy to nourish his War Body.

Within the Circulating Heaven Qi Sea.

The previously shattered Battle Qi was reborn like dawn’s light, imbued with divine brilliance, and as a vast amount of spirit energy essence flooded in, his Qi Sea began to swell once more.

Before coming from the Eastern Emperor Domain, he had heard from Manager Han about the Martial Arts Classics, which gave Xiao Chen some insights. In the past, when he cultivated his Battle Qi, he had neglected some finer points.

The Sky Python Art.

This Martial Arts Classic, inherited by the Purple Snake Battle Division, was created by the ancestors of the human race who observed the Ancient Ferocious Beast, the Purple Winged Heaven-Swallowing Python. At first glance, it seemed more appropriate to call it the Purple Winged Sky Python Art.

However, now that Xiao Chen understood the principle behind it, he realized why it was called the Sky Python Art and why the previous "Purple Winged" designation was removed.

It indicated that this Martial Arts Classic could vary greatly. Different warriors who cultivated it might end up with different manifestations, so naming it "Purple Winged" was inappropriate.

Although he practiced both his War Body and Battle Qi in the past, he primarily focused on his War Body, usually breaking through with his Battle Qi only after his War Body had advanced.

As a result, since his War Body was tempered, absorbing Primal Energy had become much easier, and advancing in realm had been straightforward. This had caused him to overlook the subtlety of Martial Arts Classics.

Xiao Chen quickly closed his eyes again, revisiting the cultivation method of the Sky Python Art, and began to mobilize the operation of the Battle Qi within his body.

While Xiao Chen was healing,

a message spread from an unknown part of the Border Wasteland: Xiao Chen, the clan leader of the Gu Yuan Marquis Division, the foremost Battle Division of the Boundary Wasteland Domain, was ambushed by exotic strong ones outside a void passage.

This message quickly swept through the entire Border Wasteland Domain, and eventually, the content of the message also changed beyond recognition.

Unexceptionally, this message was immensely shocking, even panicking, to the many tribes and warriors of the Border Wasteland. After the victorious blood sacrifice battle, Xiao Chen had led the Gu Yuan Tribe to stand in front of all warriors in the entire Border Wasteland Domain.

Later, the Eastern Emperor himself arrived and, by a royal edict, appointed Xiao Chen as a God Marquis, with the Border Wasteland Domain as his fief. His power peaked at that moment. Such a formidable warrior, who had shaken the Border Wasteland, was now missing, presumed dead!

And this was when the exotic clans were ravaging the lands. To many warriors, this was catastrophic news. Without Xiao Chen, who would lead the Gu Yuan Tribe?

Without the Gu Yuan Tribe, how could the Border Wasteland Domain withstand the conquest of exotic tribes?
