36 -35 Tribal Trivial Matters_1
The early morning afterglow cast a faint golden hue over the entire Gu Yuan Tribe.
The number of pedestrians on the streets within the tribe was gradually increasing, while squads of golden-clad, sharp-witted Guardian Clan Soldiers, with their powerful and vigorous steps, patrolled in unison.
Nowadays, the Gu Yuan Tribe’s Guardian Clan Soldiers are a far cry from their impoverished appearance before the great war.
With all the armor and weapons resources of the three tribes combined, there are now over a thousand Guardian Clan soldiers, each wearing inferior quality battle armor and armed with inferior quality war weapons.
Their uniform equipment is a source of great envy among surrounding tribes and has caused Ding Shan, the War Soldier Commander, to wake up laughing several times in his sleep.
After experiencing a bleak year, the Gu Yuan Tribe has now become extraordinarily lively, and its abundant resources have transformed it into a trading center for dozens of nearby tribes.
Everyday countless herb gatherers and rangers flock to the Gu Yuan Tribe hoping for a good harvest.
When these people return to their tribes, they spread the stories of the Gu Yuan Tribe’s prosperity and the renown of their young tribal leader, boosting the tribe’s reputation far and wide.
Time loses meaning when one cultivates.
More than ten days have passed since the master alchemist Hu Guyue visited.
Almost every other day, Master Hu would bring Mu Yun Tian to Xiao Chen’s residence, inquiring about the return of his master, but each visit ended in vain.
This greatly benefited Xiao Chen.
In recent days, he has enjoyed his exchanges with Master Hu.
On one hand is a rising alchemist with an unparalleled alchemical heritage, and on the other hand is a master who has been immersed in alchemy for decades. freewebnoveℓ.com
It was as the saying goes, “when kindred spirits meet they are loath to part.”
Xiao Chen, a novice at alchemy, benefitted greatly from their interactions over several days.
He zealously learned the common knowledge of alchemy from the elder Hu Guyue.
They exchanged experiences during the day, and at night, Xiao Chen would watch over the medicine cauldron and tirelessly refine medicine.
Despite the hardship, he was quite reassured seeing his success rate of producing medicine slowly increase.
As for the illness of young Mu Yun Tian, Xiao Chen had already consulted the chronicles in his mind.
He had a deeper understanding of the symptoms and had also come up with a better treatment method.
But he felt it wasn’t yet the right time to notify the two.
In other words, Xiao Chen didn’t feel that his current gains were enough, and they had not yet reached his expectations.
Xiao Chen had no intention of playing the nice guy.
His heart was cunning.
He saw this as a business transaction and knew that there was a golden opportunity in front of him.
He held a good hand and was dealing with a big sheep ripe for the taking.
How could he not take full advantage?
“Greetings, Tribal Chief.” Seeing Xiao Chen emerge from his seclusion, the guards immediately bowed and saluted.
“Hmm… go and gather the elders and commanders to discuss business at my residence.”
The guards immediately obeyed and dispersed to deliver the message.
Ever since Xiao Chen indulged in Alchemy, he had essentially become a hands-off manager, leaving all tribal affairs – big and small – to the Grand Elder and others.
Only when they situation was too challenging, Xiao Chen would step out of his room to handle it.
After resolving the issue, he would immediately disappear back into his room, leaving others to shake their heads in resigned amusement.
In his words, the more able, the more work.
As a soul that had traveled from another world, he was influenced by the future’s principle of division of labor.
He wouldn’t be bothered with such trivial matters.
Only strength is valued in this world where martial power is supreme.
Both good and evil depended on the strength of one’s power.
As they say, “Victory makes a king, defeat a bandit”.
That’s why Xiao Chen always aimed to consolidate his power, whether it was his personal power or that of the Gu Yuan Tribe, at all times.
As Xiao Chen sat in the hall, lost in his thoughts, he heard chaotic footsteps outside.
The Grand Elder and others had arrived.
“Brother chieftain, Cai Er heard that you’ve recently turned into a girl and have been hiding behind closed doors.
Are you up to no good?”
Before they saw the person, a voice called out.
Xiao Chen immediately broke into a cold sweat.
Since becoming the tribe’s leader, everyone showed him utmost respect, except for one person – Lin Cai Er.
A petite figure darted past the others like a butterfly flitting through flowers and pounced onto Xiao Chen, who was sitting on the main seat.
Now that the tribe’s crisis was over, she seemed to have returned to the innocence of her younger days.
Xiao Chen wasn’t angry at Lin Cai Er’s behaviour, but rather heartened.
Ever since he had become a tribal leader, he had become somewhat lonely, appearing like a recluse.
Lin Cai Er added a touch of joy to his monotonous cultivation.
Everyone paid their respects to Xiao Chen and took their seats together.
Only Lin Cai Er continue to cling to Xiao Chen, her feet as firmly planted as nails, not budging an inch as she clung onto him, her big eyes darting around in defiance, an expression that clearly said, “I’m not going anywhere, come at me”.
In the past dozen or so days, the Gu Yuan Tribe had entered a period of rapid expansion, reminiscent of a rural rags-to-riches story.
The tribe had successively assimilated the Black Mountain and other tribes, plundering all their resources and population.
The Gu Yuan Tribe’s storage was piled high with all kinds of resources like small mountains.
Once everyone was seated, the meeting proceeded as usual, with the Grand Elder starting off, each one subsequently reporting various matters to Xiao Chen.
Sitting at the head of the table, Xiao Chen made decisions on the tribal affairs put forth to him.
However, if there was any contentious issue, he would not dictate unilaterally but would let everyone discuss it together to choose the most suitable solution.
However, when it came to tribal internal affairs, Elder Xiao Tan was the most knowledgeable.
As Xiao Chen’s clansman, Xiao Tan was extremely vigilant, showing no signs of complacency.
“Reporting to the Tribal Chief, after the big battle, our Gu Yuan Tribe absorbed more than 4,200 people from other tribes.
Women accounted for about 80% of this.
Along with the casualties from our tribe, our tribe now has a population of over 16,000.
Furthermore, due to the widespread reputation of the Tribal Chief, many scattered tribes come to Gu Yuan daily, intending to join our tribe for protection.’
In the frontier continent, more precisely, there is a tribe level below other low-ranked tribes, which are the unincorporated scattered tribes.
These scattered tribes lack resources, have no homes, are constantly in danger, lack a strong one to suppress the foundations.
For these scattered nomadic tribes, the chances of survival are much greater if they join a graded tribe.
“Corresponding to these annexed tribes, we will place them outside our tribe city as previously discussed.
They will be allowed to join the Gu Yuan Tribe only after meeting the conditions set by us.
Our Gu Yuan Tribe cannot feed useless people.’
The conditions set by Gu Yuan are also common practices among all the tribes on the continent, after all, there is no such thing as a free lunch.
“Following the Tribal Chief’s order, maintain the Guardian Clan Soldiers at 1,500.
The shortfall has been selected from the tribe.
Weapons and armors are all in place.” With everyone finished reporting, the War Soldier Commander Ding Shan stood up and reported to Xiao Chen.
The past half a month had been Ding Shan’s most comfortable time, having superior equipment and abundant soldiers.
Whenever he walked, he always smiled.
Even if a clan soldier made a mistake on his watch, he did not severely punish, but just chastised a bit, making all the clan soldiers thought as if Ding Yanwang had changed into a different person.
In this way, time quietly passed away.
Everyone noticed that it was already noon when they finished discussing tribal affairs.
By then, Lin Cai Er, couldn’t bear it any longer, pretending to be angry, she said, “Big brother Tribal Chief, you must compensate me.
Sister Mu Qing has already become a Blood Refining Realm Warrior, but Cai Er still isn’t.
You have to tell whether you were secretly giving preferential help to sister Mu.
Cai Er wants it too.’
In this tribal War, Mu Qing single-handedly turned the tide, her power in the Blood Refining Realm was so shocking to everyone that it made the little girl extremely envious.
Every few days she would come to bother Xiao Chen.
Patting Lin Cai Er lightly on the head and under her highly reluctant dodging, Xiao Chen finally stopped his movements and started, “Do note in your mind while being a warrior, do not pursue instant success.
It’s the biggest secret within the heavenly earth, buried inside human bodies.
One should be very cautious, cannot afford to make slightest mistaking.’
“All of you have worked hard lately.
Gu Yuan has what it has today, it’s inseparable from everyone’s hard work.
I, as your tribal chief won’t forget any tribesmen who has battled for the tribe.
The porcelain bottles on the stone table, take one each, there are five Bone Strengthening Pills in each bottle, when you return take one pill each day while cultivating, it will definitely have twice the result with half the effort.’
“What, elixir!
It is an elixir!”
“Is this the elixir?” Hearing Xiao Chen say that the porcelain bottles contained elixir concocted by real alchemists, everyone tightly held the porcelain bottles in their hands.
They were so excited they could melt the porcelain bottles into their bodies.
After all, in Gu Yuan’s history, the appearance of the elixir could be counted easily on fingers.
The cultivators in the tribe swallowed herbs directly, and a better concoction was only from exploding and mixing various herbs into a pill simple.
Now that the real elixir appeared before them, it was not surprising that everyone is excited so much.
“This must be the elixir concocted by Master Hu.’
These days, Hu Guyue is frequently seen going in and out of Xiao Chen’s mansion, everyone is aware of his alchemist stature, and they are nothing but respectful to him.
The Bone Strengthening Elixirs in these porcelain bottles are what Xiao Chen has been diligently concocting these days.
In response to everyone’s speculation, Xiao Chen neither agreed nor disagreed.
Treasure the elixir in their bosom, everyone dispersed, they could not wait to feel the effect of the elixir, even Lin Cai Er who was clinging to Xiao Chen, quickly disappeared.
It seemed that sister Mu Qing’s breakthrough to Blood Refining Realm had hit her hard.
Only Mu Qing and Xiao Chen were left in the hall at this point.
“You–”
“You–”
“You speak first!”
