Chapter 441 - Expansion of the Human Clan
Chapter 441: Expansion of the Human Clan
It had been two months since the Black Dragon King left the Dragon Clan.
Under the urging of the elders, the Black Dragon King set off for the Shining Heaven Territory.
“We haven’t settled our own matters clearly. Why are you rushing us?”
After learning that the Phoenix Clan was still in the Shining Heaven Territory, the Black Dragon King was extremely reluctant.
Wasn’t the Shining Heaven Territory under the care of the Xuantian Sect?
It was unknown whether he return from the Shining Heaven Territory or not.
The Xuantian Sect wouldn’t just let a semi-god realm warrior of the Dragon Clan enter the Shining Heaven Territory, would they!
“This is provoking them!”
After he finished arranging his own affairs, the Black Dragon King had no more excuses to stay in the Dragon Clan.
After leaving the Endless Sea, the Black Dragon King decided to take a detour around the continent to watch the fight between the Human Clan and the Demon Clan first.
If the energy of the Xuantian Sect was attracted there, he would go to the place where the Phoenix Clan lived in seclusion.
“An alternate dimension? Is it the same place as the Land of Demon Slayers?”
The Black Dragon thought about the place where the Phoenix Clan lived in seclusion. He was a little confused. He could not figure out what that place looked like.
It was in the Shining Heaven Territory, yet it was not.
There was another entrance somewhere in the Shining Heaven Territory. The Phoenix Clan’s habitat was called Mount Wutong. It was in another world.
After thinking about it, the Black Dragon King could only rely on the Land of Demon Slayers.
“On the Demon Smelt Tower, every level on the tower is a different world. The Land of Demon Slayers is a powerful world. Then, the Phoenix Clan, which was equally powerful back then, should also have such a world!”
When he used the Land of Demon Slayers as an analogy, the Black Dragon could understand better.
“The Phoenix Clan is really something. How can they hide in such a place to survive?Hiding isn’t the problem, but why would they place the entrance in the Shining Heaven Territory? Don’t they know that the Xuantian Sect is there?”
Perhaps, the Phoenix tribe had set the entrance here to deal with the Xuantian Sect as soon as possible?
With all sorts of suspicions and anxieties, the Black Dragon King stepped into the Continent.
At this moment, after years of battles between humans and demons, the Continent was in a state of depression.
After the demons massacred the humans, the humans turned around to take revenge.
The demons that could be moved had already moved to places that the humans were unwilling to go. Those that could not be moved were either killed or were still bitterly guarding.
However, the area of influence of the demons was greatly reduced.
The large amount of empty space became a wasteland.
“Hehe, these orcs will have a hard time.”
After passing through a certain area, the orcs fought against the humans.
Both sides seemed to have similar strength.
However, the human side still had a portion of experts lying in ambush outside the battlefield.
It seemed that when both sides were tired of fighting, this portion of new forces would charge in.
Not long after, the humans began to retreat.
The orcs thought that the humans couldn’t hold on any longer and hurriedly followed.
“These fools. The humans are clearly on par with them. There must be a problem with retreating now, right?”
The Black Dragon King understood quickly. Both sides were bloodthirsty.
Even if the orcs did have their worries, they could not care less.
As expected, after the orcs followed the humans in their retreat, they fell into the ambush set up by the humans. The orcs stopped retreating and attacked with all their might.
Not long after, as the orcs used up the last bit of their strength, a new human army charged into the battlefield.
They charged in in as an encirclement.
When the orc side saw this, their morale was immediately drained.
What was left was a one-sided massacre.
Very quickly, the orc side was completely killed.
The new human army collected the spoils and escorted the other tired humans back.
“The humans are indeed cunning!”
The Black Dragon King frowned.
The humans and the orcs were clearly about the same strength.
In the end, the orcs lost.
Who knew what would happen when the demon clan faced these humans
The Black Dragon King became even more worried.
“Let’s hurry and find the Phoenix Clan!”
With a flick of his tail, the Black Dragon King burrowed into the clouds and hid himself. Then, he followed the clouds to the Shining Heaven Territory.
After Li Mu returned to the Xuantian Sect from Muyang City, he burrowed into the forbidden land.
Liu An and the others began their expansion plans.
The other human forces on the continent also followed suit after seeing Liu An’s plans.
After all, Liu An and the others were all eyeing the demon clan. They didn’t take the other small forces seriously.
However, the small human forces that survived were different.
They needed to recover their strength urgently. Let alone a mouthful of meat, even a mouthful of soup would do.
Before Liu An and the others take action, these humans had already made their move against the orcs.
In the Imperial Palace of Xia Country.
Liu An sat on the throne.
“My Lord, only four groups of demonic beasts have made their move.”
“It seems that these demonic beasts are quite careful. After we went to Muyang City, our country’s internal void was unwilling to make a move.”
Liu An pursed his lips.
This was a good opportunity for the demonic beasts to create trouble for them.
In the end, the demon beasts that entered the country were merely practice targets for the Xia Country’s human experts.
“Are you guys fighting too fiercely that the other demon beasts don’t dare to come in?”
Liu An said.
After he left Xia Country with Old Demon Han and the others, the country was really empty.
The experts that remained didn’t have much combat experience.
Originally, they were left to fight against the demon clan and train their troops properly.
The platform had been set up, but the demon clan was hesitant.
Their previous expansion had probably used too many unexpected tricks and scared the demon clan!
“My Lord, with four demon beast groups, we can be considered to have completed the task of training our troops.”
“It’s not enough!”
Liu An shook his head.
Xia Country had expanded too quickly.
Many new recruits had never seen blood before.
These new recruits, who were only in their twenties, were all born when the human clan fought back against the contraction of the demon clan.
They had never seen the cruelty of war with demon beasts.
“How about we attack the surrounding orcs?”
A minister suggested.
“Objection. After our country became strong, there weren’t many orcs around. They were left for civilian experts to practice. If we make a move, how will these civilian experts survive?”
A minister objected.
Immediately, a large number of people stood out to oppose.
Liu An raised his head and looked.
He realized that those who opposed were the representatives of the various families.
That’s right!
After the establishment of the country, other than the experts that Liu An brought with him, the rest were basically the aristocratic families of the continent’s indigenous people.
Right now, these indigenous aristocratic families opposed. They didn’t want the Xia Country to interfere with the orcs.
“Hmph!”
Liu An snorted.
Beasts were a difficult opponent, so the aristocratic families wanted to leave them to the Liu family.
On the other hand, the orcs were easy targets, these aristocratic families wanted to embrace them.
What was left for other warriors to practice?
Did they really treat the orcs as their own property?
Liu An knew better than anyone how the aristocratic families developed.
“Pass down the order. We’ll use the surrounding orcs to practice. In five years, our human clan will make a big move.”
After Liu An finished speaking, he stood up from the throne and left.
“A big move in five years, what does that mean?”
The officials were first stunned by Liu An’s strength of resolve, and then they heard another shocking piece of news.
The human clan would make a big move five years later,?
Were they going to attack the demon clan?
After their meeting with Liu An, some of the officials gathered in groups of twos and threes.
“A big move in five years, I’m afraid our clan won’t even have two true realm experts in five years.”
“Exactly! So, it’s still them getting the most benefits and us just trying to see what we can glean from these benefits. If things go wrong, the true realm experts in our clan will be killed because of this.”
“They still won’t let us rob these orcs? Hmph! Too overbearing!”
“What can we do? They are powerful, and we are dependent on their clan.”
“We can’t say this kid is mature, because he doesn’t know to give us some benefits. Yet to say that he is inexperienced would be wrong too, because his style of doing things is very sophisticated.”
