Chapter 134 From This Day Forever, There Will Be No More Sky Wolf King Tribes
Chapter 134 From This Day Forever, There Will Be No More Sky Wolf King Tribes
Xiao Pengtian is currently the only Grandmaster-level expert in the Sirius King Tribe. Although his cultivation level may have declined, there is still hope that he can recover to the Grandmaster level in the future.
With Xiao Hongbo dead, Xiao Pengtian is the only candidate to become the next Sirius King.
Now that the Tianlang King tribe is in dire straits, Yelü Nanyan wants to know what Xiao Pengtian's plans are.
After hearing Yelü Nanyan's question, Xiao Pengtian remained silent for a moment.
After a while, Xiao Pengtian did not answer Yelü Nanyan's question, but instead asked, "Your Highness, if we return to the grasslands, will the Northern Xianwang tribe let us go?"
Yelü Nanyan replied, "No."
Xiao Pengtian continued, "At that time, whether it's you, Princess Consort, or Yao Yao, you will both be captured by the Northern King and made his slaves. Will you, Princess Consort, be willing to be the Northern King's woman or his slave?"
Yelü Nanyan did not answer the question. If she had to choose between the two, Yelü Nanyan would definitely choose the young man not far away. She would never choose that old geezer, the Prince of Northern Xian.
However, Yelü Nanyan was also very clear in her heart that she was the queen of the Tianlang King tribe and still held power. Once she went to the Northern King's mansion and became the Northern King's woman, she would lose all her power and become just an ordinary member of the Northern King's harem.
Moreover, she is already in her thirties this year. Compared to the other women of the Northern King, she is older and ages faster.
Perhaps at first the Northern King would still be attracted to her beauty, but maybe in a few years, when she grows old and loses her beauty, the Northern King will lose all interest in her, and she will only be able to live out her days alone in the Northern King's harem.
But thinking about these things is useless now; she has no choice.
Moreover, the life in Daxia was what she had always longed for since she was a child. If she missed this opportunity, she might very well return to her previous life of wandering and displacement.
She had had enough of living a nomadic life, constantly moving from place to place.
Seeing that Yelü Nanyan did not answer his question, Xiao Pengtian said, "The Northern King is only seventeen years old at most this year, and he is already a Grandmaster. I believe that he is very likely to become a Celestial Realm expert in the future. Since our tribe was born, we have always admired the strong. Since he is strong and has defeated us, we have no reason not to submit to him."
"The Sirius King Tribe has come to its current state through continuous wars and the annexation of smaller tribes. Now that we have lost, our fate will be the same as that of the smaller tribes we defeated in the past. I don't think this is something that is hard to accept."
Upon hearing Xiao Pengtian's words, the elders of the barbarian tribe fell into deep thought.
Indeed, the Sirius King tribe has achieved its current status by constantly annexing surrounding smaller tribes through war, which is how it developed.
Among these elders are some people from other small tribes. For example, the Second Elder was absorbed into the Sirius King's tribe after it annexed a small tribe.
If we consider Northshire as a larger barbarian tribe, then migrating to Northshire doesn't seem like such an unacceptable thing.
At this moment, the elders of the barbarian tribe no longer had much resistance to moving to the Northern Prefecture. After all, they had no other choice. If they returned to the grasslands and were discovered by the Northern Xian King, they would only be annexed.
Moreover, under Yelü Nanyan's leadership over the years, the people of the Tianlangwang tribe had longed for the lifestyle of the Great Xia.
Now that such a good opportunity is presented to them, it seems obvious how they will choose.
At this moment, the high priest opened his eyes and said, "Vote! Raise your hand if you agree to move to Northshire."
Upon hearing this, the high priest was the first to raise his hand.
The high priest of the barbarian tribe held a pivotal position. If even he agreed, it was impossible for others to disagree. Immediately afterward, the second elder also raised his hand, and soon, all the elders raised their hands to vote to move to the North County.
The moment the high priest raised his hand, it essentially meant that they had agreed to move to Northshire.
The barbarian high priest was the most conservative person in the entire tribe. If even he agreed, it was impossible for anyone else to disagree.
However, Yelü Nanyan did not raise her hand at this moment.
Seeing that Yelü Nanyan did not raise her hand, Xiao Pengtian asked, "Your Highness, what is this...?"
Yelü Nanyan said, "I am not qualified to vote on the future of the Sirius King's tribe."
"But since you have all agreed, then General Xiao should go and tell the Northern King this news."
Xiao Pengtian then said, "I understand."
Then Xiao Pengtian turned around and walked towards Lu Chen and the others.
Seeing Xiao Pengtian return, Lu Chen smiled and said, "It seems you've made your decision. I just don't know if you'll choose survival or destruction."
As soon as Lu Chen finished speaking, Xiao Pengtian knelt down on one knee, bowed, and said loudly, "This humble general, Xiao Pengtian, pays his respects to Your Highness. From this day forward, this humble general is willing to be Your Highness's sword, clearing all obstacles for Your Highness!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen glanced at Xiao Pengtian's loyalty level, which had reached 75, a fairly high number.
It seems that the Sirius King tribe has chosen to relocate to the Northern County.
Lu Chen then stood up and said, "General Xiao, please rise."
Xiao Pengtian said, "Thank you, Your Highness!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Pengtian got up from the ground, and at this moment, Lu Chen walked directly towards Yelü Nanyan and the others.
Soon, Lu Chen returned to the place where they had just negotiated. He sat upright on the fur rug once more and looked at Yelü Nanyan, saying, "It seems you have agreed to my conditions?"
Yelü Nanyan said, "Yes, but we have one more condition."
Lu Chen asked, "Oh, what are the conditions?"
Yelü Nanyan did not speak directly, but asked, "Does Your Highness really not intend to release those 100,000 soldiers? If we join Beijun, those 100,000 soldiers will no longer be prisoners, but Your Highness's people."
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen instantly understood Yelü Nanyan's meaning and said, "I can release them, but not now."
"I require them to perform ten years of hard labor in the North County. If they perform well, I may release them early. During this period, I will allow their families to visit them. If they perform well again, I may also temporarily release them to return home and reunite with their families."
Hearing this, Yelü Nanyan sighed inwardly. This was probably the biggest concession the Northern King had made.
Aside from this concession, they estimated that they could not obtain any more favorable terms from the Northern King.
Yelü Nanyan continued, "After the Sirius King's tribe moves to Beijun, what are the Northern King's plans for their resettlement?"
Lu Chen replied, "You'll know when you get to Beijun."
Yelü Nanyan asked, "Isn't the Northern King afraid that our people will clash with the people of Beijun? The war has just ended, and many people in Beijun must have died because of it, right? The hatred of the people of Beijun towards us cannot be eliminated in a day or two."
Lu Chen didn't discuss the topic much; he simply said, "Beijun is very large, but there are very few people."
Compared to other counties in the Great Xia, Beijun is a typical example of a vast and sparsely populated area. Even if all the barbarian tribes in the north were moved to Beijun, Beijun would still be able to accommodate them.
The key is that Lu Chen will soon incorporate the northern lands into his fiefdom, at which point his fiefdom will continue to expand northward, and he will have even more land.
The barbarian population is nothing.
As for the hatred of the people, it certainly cannot be eliminated in a short time; it requires a long period of adjustment.
Lu Chen then said, "If you have any other questions, you can ask them all at once, and I will answer them for you personally today."
After pondering for a moment, Yelü Nanyan said, "When we arrive in Beijun, I want to go and see our soldiers."
Without hesitation, Lu Chen immediately replied, "Okay."
Lu Chen originally planned to take Yelü Nanyan to meet the barbarian prisoners, mainly to keep the barbarians calm and prevent the prisoners from having any ulterior motives.
Since Yelü Nanyan had taken the initiative to suggest visiting them, Lu Chen had no reason to disagree.
Yelü Nanyan then took a deep breath and said, "Thank you for your kindness, King of the North. We have no further problems."
Lu Chen said, "Very well, since you have no further questions, then Princess Yelü and Princess Xiao shall immediately return to Beijun with me."
Upon hearing this, the barbarian elders showed expressions of immense pain and struggle.
The Queen has left, and the Sirius King tribe has moved to the Northern Prefecture, which means that the Sirius King tribe will no longer exist.
Although their lives may be better than before, they cannot sever their attachment to the Sirius King tribe anytime soon.
Lu Chen stood up and walked towards the black cavalry. Watching Lu Chen's back, Yelü Nanyan's emotions were extremely complicated.
I never imagined that at my age, when I'm practically an elder of the Northern King, I would end up becoming his woman.
Yelü Nanyan turned to look at Xiao Wenyao, who had been lost in thought the whole time, and said, "Yaoyao, let's go."
Xiao Wenyao asked in a daze, "Your Highness, are we really going to the Northern Prince's residence?"
Yelü Nanyan countered, "Between the Northern King and the Northern Xian King, which would you choose?"
Xiao Wenyao didn't answer, but said with a dejected look, "I understand."
Xiao Wenyao then walked towards where the Black Cavalry was.
After returning to the Black Cavalry, Lu Chen said to Xiao Pengtian, "General Xiao, I'm entrusting you with the task of relocating the Tianlang King tribe to Beijun."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Pengtian was stunned.
He had just chosen to pledge allegiance to the Northern King, but unexpectedly, the Northern King entrusted this matter to him.
Isn't the Northern King afraid that he might have ulterior motives?
Lu Chen didn't care what Xiao Pengtian thought. He directly said to Qin Yushan, "Commander Qin, didn't you say you had some pills to restore one's internal energy? Give one to General Xiao."
Without hesitation, Qin Yushan took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve and handed it to Xiao Pengtian, saying, "This is the Great Rejuvenation Pill. One pill can help you restore your power. At most, you will be able to recover to the Grandmaster realm again in no more than half a month."
Seeing the small porcelain bottle in Qin Yushan's hand, Xiao Pengtian was extremely excited. He had always thought that he had become a cripple and that it would be very difficult to regain his strength in the future. He never expected that the Northern King would have such a miraculous medicine.
Xiao Pengtian took the small porcelain bottle from Qin Yushan and immediately said to Lu Chen, "Your Highness trusts me so much, I will certainly not let you down."
At this point, Xiao Pengtian opened the bottle and swallowed the pills inside.
He didn't even consider the possibility that it was poison. Even if it was poison, he could only accept it, since he was already a cripple and it would be difficult for him to regain his strength.
After Xiao Pengtian took the Great Rejuvenation Pill, he instantly felt his internal energy return, and a protective aura appeared around his body.
Although he didn't know what the Great Rejuvenation Pill was, Xiao Pengtian knew that it must be extremely precious. The fact that Lu Chen gave him such a precious pill meant that Lu Chen valued him highly.
In an instant, Xiao Pengtian's loyalty level soared, instantly reaching 89, almost approaching 90.
Seeing that Xiao Pengtian had recovered his strength, Lu Chen continued, "General Xiao, today you should return to the Sky Wolf King Tribe with the elders of your tribe."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Pengtian was stunned once again.
After regaining his senses, Xiao Pengtian immediately asked, "Isn't Your Highness afraid that I'll just run away like this?"
Now that he has recovered 90% of his strength, if he were to return to the Sirius King's tribe, some people would probably run away immediately and never come back to Beijun.
Xiao Pengtian didn't know why Lu Chen was so confident in him.
Lu Chen said with a smile, "Like I said before, if you think you can escape, you can try."
At this point, Lu Chen went to his horse and mounted it.
At this moment, Yelü Nanyan and Xiao Wenyao also arrived in front of the Black Cavalry.
At this moment, Wenren Lie led over two horses and said to Yelü Nanyan and Xiao Wenyao, "Ladies, please!"
Hearing Wenren Lie call her "Madam," Xiao Wenyao's face instantly flushed. At that moment, she stole a glance at Lu Chen, who was on horseback.
Xiao Wenyao did not believe that Lu Chen was going to marry her, nor did she think that she was marrying Lu Chen.
In Xiao Wenyao's eyes, she was nothing more than Lu Chen's slave.
Xiao Wenyao grew up on the grasslands, so her understanding is limited.
This has always been the case on the grasslands: the loser is the slave, and there is no human rights to speak of there.
Yelü Nanyan didn't think too much about it; she simply flipped over and mounted her horse.
After Yelü Nanyan mounted her horse, Xiao Wenyao came to her senses and quickly mounted her horse as well.
Being a slave is fine, it's still better than marrying that filthy old man, the King of Northern Xian, who eats people and doesn't even bathe.
Thinking of this, Xiao Wenyao accepted her fate as it was, and the identity of being the Northern King's little slave girl was already implanted in her mind.
From this day forward, the Northern King will be Xiao Wenyao's master.
At this moment, Xiao Pengtian glanced at Xiao Wenyao and then said, "Yaoyao, your uncle has gone back to the tribe first. He will come to see you again in a while."
Upon hearing this, both Xiao Wenyao and Yelü Nanyan were taken aback.
They were unaware that Lu Chen intended to let Xiao Pengtian return to the Sky Wolf King tribe.
After regaining her senses, Yelü Nanyan stared intently at Lu Chen's back, trying to see through this young man.
