Chapter 1044: 477: Return to Lanling! The Destiny of Tianshui City!

The tribe before his eyes was not large, with all its members residing on a big mountain, probably totaling around tens of thousands of people.

For Suo Lun, there could be no better starting point for his conquest of the Barbaric Wilderness Continent.

However, how should he subjugate this tribe? Become their king?

By force, a honey trap, or cunning strategies? It didn’t matter!

But first, he needed to understand the tribe, its race, traditions, and at the very least, its language.

On the Barbaric Wilderness Continent, Suo Lun was like a mute, ignorant of the local language.

While Suo Lun was contemplating how to gain a foothold in the tribe and then ascend against the current...

Suddenly...

A flurry of footsteps approached rapidly.

Releasing his spiritual power, he immediately saw clearly that over a hundred Barbarian Warriors were swiftly encircling him, their speed incredibly fast.

Suo Lun fiercely drew his Ebony Sword and began to sprint away.

"Whoosh..."

Quickly, over a hundred Barbarian Warriors, screaming and roaring, leaped out from the dense shrubs and surrounded Suo Lun completely.

Despite Suo Lun’s speed being extremely fast, he was unable to break out of the encirclement, and each of the Barbarian Warriors was exceedingly quick.

A moment later, dozens of bows and arrows were aimed at Suo Lun.

Dozens of curved blades surrounded him from all sides.

At this point, Suo Lun could clearly see the appearances of these Barbarian Warriors!

Indeed, they looked vastly different from humans!

Suo Lun didn’t even know what to call their race, although they bore some resemblance to the Na’vi Species from the Earth movie "Avatar."

The Barbarian Warriors before him were all very tall, at least over one meter ninety or two meters.

Moreover, their arms and legs were particularly long.

Their faces were elongated, with especially pointed ears and their bodies covered in speckles of spots.

Their tails, like whips, trailed behind them.

The similarities they shared with humans were having hands and feet, walking upright, and possessing a face with eyes, ears, mouth, and nose, as well as hair.

In short, Suo Lun truly felt as if he was seeing beings from another planet.

Especially their eyes, astonishingly large!

And, each individual’s skin color was different, with shades of green, black, white, blue, red.

Moreover, the spots on their bodies were constantly glowing.

Over a hundred Barbarian Warriors had Suo Lun completely encircled.

By then, the little three-year-old girl had already shrunk her entire small body into Suo Lun’s embrace as if hiding from sight meant she was hidden.

Suo Lun began to evaluate in his heart whether he could escape using force.

Very quickly, he utterly dismissed the idea!

His body was completely new, albeit demonized with astonishing natural talent.

But in terms of Martial Arts, he was just at the beginning stage, having only absorbed the blood of a few hundred fierce beasts.

With easily over a hundred Barbarian Warriors before him, resisting by force would only lead down a path to death.

The leading Barbarian Warrior stepped forward, his gaze fiercely locked onto Suo Lun, and babbled a long string of words.

But Suo Lun couldn’t understand a thing he was saying.

Then, the Barbarian Warrior leader suddenly drew his blade and held it to Suo Lun’s throat, verbally interrogating him with a raised voice.

Suo Lun didn’t speak the human language, instead gesturing with his hands and feet to indicate that he didn’t understand what was being said.

The gaze of the Barbarian Warrior leader fell on the little girl in his arms, his hand reached out and grabbed the girl by the neck, hoisting her into the air.

"Yi ya ya ya..." The little girl struggled desperately, baring her teeth and issuing a threatening sound.

Seeing this, the surrounding Barbarian Warriors burst out laughing.

The warrior leader walked over and spoke a few words to a female warrior on horseback.

It seemed that this female warrior was their actual leader.

Her cold gaze lingered on Suo Lun for a long time before she waved her hand, issuing a command.

Shortly thereafter, several warriors stepped forward, bound Suo Lun tightly, and escorted him back to the tribe.

...

As a captive of these Barbarian Warriors, Suo Lun was brought to this completely unfamiliar tribe.

The entire tribe was built along a mountain, with a simple wall made of wood and stone at the mountain’s base, only four or five meters high and quite rudimentary.

"Creak..." The rough wooden gate opened.

Over a hundred Barbarian Warriors escorted Suo Lun into the interior of the tribe.

At the base of the mountain, vendors were densely packed, selling all kinds of things.

There were herbs, game, and various metals, weapons, and arrows.

However, the goods for sale were all very crude and primitive.

Additionally, Suo Lun noticed that the tribe was essentially composed of one race of people.

This meant that Suo Lun, an outsider, was particularly conspicuous.

It also proved that this race was very xenophobic!

Suo Lun was escorted up the mountain.

The tribe’s houses were built along the mountain, mostly made of wood and stone, equally rudimentary.

There was only one path leading up the mountain, winding its way higher.

The higher up they went, the larger and nicer the houses became.

It seemed that the higher a person lived in the tribe, the higher their status.

Halfway up the mountain, a cave appeared!

The group of Barbarian Tribe warriors pushed Suo Lun into the cave.

Perhaps this cave was the tribe’s prison!

Walking deeper into the cave, there were many sentry posts along the way.

Upon reaching the end of the cave, indeed, a row of prison cells was seen.

There were about a dozen cells, each with iron bars as thick as a calf’s leg.

The cells were packed with prisoners!

Suo Lun was thoroughly amazed; inside were a variety of races, most of which he couldn’t even name.
