The Great Wild God - Chapter 22
Chapter 22 Qing Xuan
After Ge Yi, Gu Shan, and the others retreated, Chen Xun returned to his original location, took out the medicine basket from the cliff cave, loaded the exotic beast skeleton, cut off a large piece of snake meat, and returned to the Black Python Stone Stronghold. (The fourth was even more.
Apart from the heavy-edged spear of the Black Mountain Man Wu Gu Lei and the two green nuts that looked like pine in his arms, Chen Xun’s greatest harvest this time was the snow-white beast skeleton that looked the size of a civet cat.
After such a fierce battle, the pair of bone spurs that had been removed from the beast skeleton were still intact. It seemed that they were truly extraordinary.
Worried that Gu Chen and Gu Hu of the Black Mountain Tribe would send people into the mountains to slaughter them again, Chen Xun did not dare to return along the same path. Instead, he walked towards the north from other mountains and valleys.
When he entered the mountain, Chen Xun hid some spirit medicines.
He was also a newborn calf that didn’t fear tigers. He thought that after the Dark Scaled Sly died, there wouldn’t be any ferocious beasts in his territory. He rushed in and didn’t want to directly crash into the Blue Eyed Condor’s nest.
When he left the mountain, he was much more cautious, so he was naturally much slower.
After resting in the mountains for a night, Chen Xun didn’t return to the stronghold until the afternoon of the next day.
Standing on the ridge in front of the stronghold, he saw several large bronze chariots parked in the square in front of the stone hall.
The bronze chariot was as huge as a shack, and it was definitely not owned by the Python Fang Ridge Wildlands
There was only one possibility. The azure-armored general, the two noble youths, and the Azure Water Warriors had all arrived at the black python today.
Fortune is not disaster, but disaster cannot be avoided.
Chen Xun bore his scalp and walked towards the stronghold with the medicine basket on his back. From afar, he saw Zong Ya standing on the stronghold wall and giving him a look.
Zong Ya saw that Chen Xun ignored his gaze and walked straight into the stronghold. He hurriedly walked down the stronghold wall and walked over.
“Why didn’t you see me waving at you on the village wall? Did you offend these Canglan people when you entered the mountain the day before yesterday? When these Canglan people saw Grandpa, they asked about you. The other two brats gritted their teeth and shouted at Grandpa, demanding that the Black Python hand you over!”
Chen Xun smiled bitterly. Whoever’s fists were bigger these days was reasonable.
There were some things that he could not hide from just because he wanted to. Moreover, the Azure Water Warrior really wanted to harm him. Yesterday, in the valley, Ge Yi and the other two Azure Water Warriors chased after him. He would definitely not be able to escape.
That azure-armored general gave him a feeling as deep as the Abyss Sea, far beyond Zong Sang, Nan Liao, and other high-ranked brute martial artists.
Even if it was Heavenly Barbarians, Chen Xun thought to himself, it would probably require an extremely profound Heavenly Barbarians to be able to compete with him.
Chen Xun didn’t think that the azure-armored general would be bored to the point of coming to the black python for him.
Perhaps it was related to the alliance between the Su Clan and Montenegro.
Although there were more than 5,000 clansmen in the Montenegro, their battle prowess was only comparable to that of the Black Python.
If the Su Clan formed an alliance with the Montenegro Tribe, there might be other secrets. Perhaps it was because of this layer of secrets that the azure-armored general brought the Azure Water Warrior to the Black Python.
Zong Ya was young and vigorous. He was unyielding. He could not bear to have his prey snatched away after a day and night of hard work. Chen Xun did not tell him what had happened in the mountains. He only said,
“Nothing happened. Go tell Grandpa that I’m back. If anything happens, I’ll be in the shack.”
******************
Returning to the shack, Chen Xun had just put down the medicine basket when Clan Chief Nan Liao came in with his body lowered.
“What exactly happened when you entered the mountain?”
Nan Liao was over two meters tall and could only lower his head while standing in the shack. He nervously asked Chen Xun what had happened in the mountains.
Su Qingfeng from the Su Wu Lieutenant’s Mansion came to the Black Python and asked Chen Xun specifically. He couldn’t help but be nervous about this matter.
Chen Xun knew that Nan Liao would not sacrifice the Black Python because of him, but it was precisely because of this that Nan Liao was able to calmly deal with the situation in front of him than Zong Ya and Zong Sang.
Chen Xun believed that it was also true that Grandpa Zongsang had asked Nan Liao to call him personally.
Chen Xun had concealed the fact that the two Canglan youths were filled with killing intent. He had told Nan Liao about everything else.
“What? You ran to that deep place, killed Gu Lei of Black Mountain Tribe, and crippled Gu Shan!” When Nan Liao heard what had happened in the mountains yesterday, his face revealed a look of shock. When he was absent-minded, he suddenly raised his head and with a “bang”, a large hole was immediately erected in Chen Xun’s shelter that protected him from the wind and rain.
Chen Xun showed the heavy spear to Nan Liao.
Nan Feng took the Heavy Sharp Spear and felt very heavy. It was more than twice as heavy as the refined iron spear he had used. Of course, he knew that this was a divine weapon that could only be forged in Azure Water City. It should have been exchanged by the Black Mountain Tribe from the Su Clan.
‘”No wonder Gu Hu came over today. He gritted his teeth and saw that everyone wanted to swallow it alive. So his left shoulder and right shoulder were cut off by you. You brat,” Nan Liao patted Chen Xun’s shoulder. “When we get to the Stone Hall, don’t say anything else. Everything will depend on how the Shaman arranges it.”
Chen Xun nodded and followed Nan Liao to the stone hall at the center of the stronghold.
As he approached, Chen Xun felt even more deeply the enormity of the bronze chariot. It was simply a giant copper-forged house that was directly placed on the six-wheeled chariot made of refined iron.
The door of the bronze chariot was complete. The four walls were decorated with exquisitely carved bird and beast patterns. There were also many profound talismans that he did not know. They revealed a powerful aura and faintly affected the mysterious power between heaven and earth.
Such a bronze chariot would probably be worth as many as the Black Python Stone Village.
There were four huge bronze chariots parked in the square in front of the stone hall. In front of each bronze chariot, there were six tall and sturdy scaled horses that were taken care of by a special person.
The Scaled Horse and Python Fang Ridge also produced.
The adult scaled horse was five meters tall and ten meters long. Its body was incomparably large, just like a giant tower that could run rampant.
The green scales around the Scaled Horse were like iron armor, capable of controlling swords and sharp arrows. The four iron hooves stepped on the mountains and stepped on the ridge, running like lightning.
Scaled horses were as strong as dragons, and they could only drag the huge copper chariot that weighed tens of thousands of kilograms over mountains and mountains if they were tied up with four scaled horses.
Grandpa Zongtu once said that when the Black Python’s power was at its peak, there were more than a thousand scaled horses riding in its possession, spreading across the Azure Water, and there were no tribes that did not surrender.
Zong Sang’s greatest wish was to capture a wild scaled horse in the depths of Python Fang Ridge and tame it as a mount.
However, in the past three years or so since Chen Xun arrived at the Black Python, Zong Sang’s wish had never come true. None of the tribes in the northern mountain of Python Fang Ridge had ever seen a family that could tame those wild scaled horses.
Chen Xun and Nan Liao approached, and the ten plus scaled horses all looked over vigilantly. They screamed in unison, and their momentum surged. They rolled in the square in front of the stone hall like thunder, startling Chen Xun.
He had never seen a Scaled Horse at close range before. He hadn’t thought that more than twenty Scaled Horses would hiss in unison, and their momentum would be so terrifying. Yet, the Scaled Horse actually had fierce flames in its eyes, and it had the aura of experiencing countless battlefield killings. Chen Xun was secretly worried that if a Scaled Horse went berserk and raised its hooves to kick him, would he be able to withstand this attack at this moment?
As for the coachmen standing beside the bronze carriage, although they weren’t any weaker than Ge Yi’s Azure Water Warriors, their muscles were firm and filled with strength as if they were made of iron, but their strength wasn’t any weaker than Zong Sang’s.
Looking at these bronze chariots, these scaled horses, these coachmen, and the six Azure Water Warriors that came out yesterday, Chen Xun thought to himself, could that azure-armored general that made him feel as deep as the Abyss Sea be the Sect Master of the Azure Water Su Clan?
This was the prestige that only the Su Clan possessed.
Compared to these ragged tribes, the black python was so shabby that it was no better than the rest of its underwear.
Chen Xunzheng was thinking nonsense as he walked towards the stone hall with Nan Liao. He wasn’t wary that a bronze carriage would suddenly open. Half of a beautiful figure poked out from the bronze carriage and softly cried out, “It really suffocated people in the carriage …”
When she saw Chen Xun in front of the car, she was shocked. She covered her delicate lips and hid back in the car. However, when she returned to the car, she did not close the door. Instead, she curiously sized up Chen Xun, a barbarian youth.
Chen Xun didn’t expect that there would be women in the bronze carriage, so he was shocked.
It was a beautiful girl who looked a year or two older than him, and her face was as beautiful as jade. She wore a pale blue dress, and her skin was like snow. Even though she was in the bronze carriage, her skirt did not flutter in the wind. It was like a white lotus flower, and it had an extraordinary beauty. It was like a heavenly immortal descending from the mortal world, occupying Chen Xun’s eyes …
There were more than a thousand Black Pythons, and more than sixty percent of them were women.
However, let alone the Black Python, Chen Xun hadn’t seen a slender, fair-skinned girl in the past three years from the surrounding tribes like Black Mountain.
This was also mainly a difficult wilderness to survive, so that the black python woman to be strong for the beauty; There were also girls with good aptitudes who practiced brutal cultivation. Normally, Wu Sang, Nan Liao, and the others would go out to hunt in the village. They were the main force guarding the village, but they were all five big and three thick. They truly did not conform to Chen Xun’s aesthetic standards.
At first glance, Chen Xun was a little stunned. He didn’t expect that there would be such an extraordinary and elegant young girl in this world.
“Cough!” Nan Liao walked for a long time, but he didn’t see Chen Xun following him. He turned around and saw Chen Xun standing beside the bronze carriage in a daze. He lightly coughed and reminded him to come over.
“This barbarian is so stupid! You’re dumbfounded when you look at Sister Qingxuan!”
A bronze bell-like smile came from within the bronze carriage. Only then did Chen Xun awaken from his shock, and his face and ears flushed red as he followed Nan Liao’s footsteps.
He remembered that the night before yesterday, those two Azure Water Noble teenagers had said that they wanted to sew feathers for this girl called Qing Xuan. She must be an Azure Water Noble teenager, right?
She didn’t know what kind of relationship she had with the azure-armored general.
**********************
The stone hall was made of huge stones, and the stone beams that entered the door were wide and long, weighing tens of thousands of kilograms.
The stone hall was divided into three halls. The main hall in the middle offered sacrifices to the ancestors, the Xiangdian hall on the left held public discussions on clan affairs, and the Xiangdian hall on the right received distinguished guests.
This was the first time Chen Xun had stepped into the stone hall where the black python sacrificed its ancestral spirit. He saw that the hall was filled with stone stools. It looked incomparably rough, but it also had an ancient aura.
Although the Black Python had only retreated from the northern foot of Python Fang Ridge thirty years ago to this stone stronghold, looking at the stone palace and the traces of many stone tools inside, it was likely that it had a history of more than a thousand years.
After the azure-armored general sat upright in the middle of the stone table, on the left were the two Azure Water Noble youths, as well as the high-grade Barbarian Martial Ancient Protectors, Ge Yi, and other Azure Water warriors of the Montenegro Tribe.
Wu Gong Zong Tu, Zong Sang, and the others sat behind the stone table on the right and watched Chen Xun follow Nan Liao into the stone hall.
Seeing Chen Xun holding the heavy spear that Gu Lei had used in his hand, Gu Hu was enraged. He patted the stone table and roared angrily,
“Your Black Python clansmen killed my right and left arm and took over the Divine Weapons of the Montenegro Tribe from the Martial Commandant’s Manor. All of them are here. Zong Tu, what do you have to say now?”
Zong Tu sat behind the stone table on the right and narrowed his triangular eyes. Seeing Chen Xun’s calm and composed expression, he felt confident in his heart.
Zong Tu took care of the furious Gu Hu and bowed to the azure-armored general. He said slowly,
‘”Ah Xun was separated from his father in the depths of Python Fang Ridge more than three years ago. He went to the Black Python alone. He didn’t go anywhere. He stayed with us for the past three years as a guest. General Su Wu, please check this out.”
“Oh, really? I thought the Black Python had another genius like Shouyang,”
The azure-armored general opened his bright eyes and stared at Chen Xun, seemingly wanting to see through his five internal organs and six lungs. He said,
“However, without cultivating the Nine Nether Barbarian Soul passed down by the Black Python for a thousand years, he can kill the Ancient Thunder of the Black Mountain Tribe. Once the Ancient Mountain dies, it will be crippled. It’s really great …”
Chen Xun said fearlessly, “I’m practicing the Great Roc Secret Fist!”
The azure-armored general’s cultivation was as deep as the Abyss Sea. Chen Xun never expected that this person and the Azure Water Warrior would actually come for him when they arrived at the Black Python.
He remembered what Grandpa Zongtu had said about “Huai Bi Qi Qi Qi”. He thought that the azure-armored general would not put him in his eyes. He seemed to be coming for him, but he still suspected the Black Python.
Grandpa Zongtu had mentioned that the Black Python had a glorious history in Canglan. Chen Xun didn’t know how the Black Python had been forced to retreat to this small stone stronghold. However, it must have something to do with the sudden rise of the Su Clan in Canglan 600 to 700 years ago.
If the Black Python had been defeated by the Su Clan six to seven hundred years ago, the current Su Clan, as the Master of the Azure Tide, would not have been able to kill the Black Python completely, but they would definitely not have sat down to watch the Black Python rise and revive.
Chen Xun didn’t want to provoke the Black Python to exterminate its clan, so he took out five diagrams of the Great Roc Secret Fist from his bosom.
Although the azure-armored general gave him an unfathomable feeling that was as deep as the Abyss Sea, Chen Xun was not afraid that the Six-Armed Giant Demon’s drop of demonic blood in his body would be able to tear through the void and shatter the Dao Void of the mountains, so Chen Xun was not afraid that the azure-armored general would be able to see anything unusual.
As the master of the Azure Water Range, the Su Clan controlled the Azure Water Range’s thousands of tribes. This time, they did not hesitate to surrender and form an alliance with the small Black Mountain Tribe. Chen Xun thought to himself that there might be some iron law restriction set by an enormous force above the Azure Water Range that prevented the Su Clan from doing anything recklessly in the area south of the Python Tooth Ridge.
As long as this azure-armored general called General Su Wu could still reason with him, Chen Xun was not afraid to reason with him.
