Top-tier Unruly Master

Chapter 2363: Chapter 2398: Former Glory

Find an island?

What about Herr Mengqing? And what about Ding Aohuang? What will Crimson Flame, the Herr Family, and the Ye Family do?

An island would have abundant resources to support cultivation. If they couldn’t cultivate, the Herr Family would implode first.

Herr Ningshuang sighed softly, realizing her thoughts were quite naive; indeed, it seems love lowers a woman’s intelligence.

"No matter what, there’ll always be a way when we reach the bridge!"

The solemn expression on Ding Fan’s face vanished. Thinking too much is meaningless. Do what you should, and the rest is up to fate. Everything could wait until the Giant Tribe Leader arrives, and then they’ll see his stance.

The Giant Tribe Leader arrived three days later, alone and seemingly unafraid of any ambush. Of course, nobody in the Barbarian Lands could ambush him; he’s one of the two strongest there.

It’s unclear how Meng Huo conveyed the message, and the content was unknown, but Giant Tribe Leader Men Tian ventured straight in, throwing the entire Rakshasa Tribe into chaos.

The Night Queen immediately led all the Rakshasa Tribe bigwigs out to greet him, and Meng Huo, having received the notification early, also went out to welcome him directly.

Ding Fan and the others remained quiet; they were there to subdue the Giant Tribe. Even though Men Tian’s Realm was Divine Realm Seventh Level, they couldn’t lose their cool, otherwise, they’d end up pledging loyalty to Men Tian instead of Ding Fan subduing him.

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

Men Tian and Meng Huo strode forward together, a beastly aura enveloping the forbidden grounds as they approached the Rakshasa Tribe’s royal city.

The pressure of the Divine Realm Seventh Level was terrifying, and a Giant Tribe’s Seventh Level even more so. Clearly, Men Tian was not here on friendly terms. The overbearing presence felt suffocating, like dark clouds before a storm, leaving people breathless, dejected, and panicked.

Ding Fan did not come out.

Meng Nan and Ye Li stood outside the restricted area, indifferently watching Men Tian. As a successor of the Meng Family, Meng Zhi, the leader, had immense courage. Even if his Realm wasn’t as high as Men Tian’s, his status spoke volumes.

The Ye Family once was an ancient great family, and the Meng Family has always followed it. In other words, the Meng Family is subordinate to the Ye Family, and the Giant Tribe is a branch under Ye’s control. Ye Li exuded an inherent arrogance; what were Divine Realm Seventh Level experts worth when countless such experts thrived in the Ye and Meng Families in the past.

Men Tian, Meng Huo, and Meng Zhi were a bit different. They appeared more massive, with skin between deep and bright gold tones.

Men Tian’s large eyes seemed unreactive, exuding a dignified aura as he looked at Meng Zhi for a moment and said, "Are you the current Meng Family Patriarch, Meng Zhi?"

Meng Zhi nodded, saying, "Men Tian, why don’t you salute me upon seeing me? Have your Giants forgotten your ancestors?"

Men Tian’s face slightly changed at Meng Zhi’s words, but Meng Huo’s face fell completely. Meng Zhi had no tricks left; he knew Ding Fan’s purpose here—subduing the Barbarian Lands. So he could only use his ancestor status to pressure Men Tian.

In the Divine Realm, clans are of utmost importance. Despite the Ding Family’s treatment, Ding Fan still wanted a family of his own, even though it turned him cold considering their deeds.

Clans are the root for warriors. Without a clan, warriors become lost souls, with no place to anchor their spirits.

In the Divine Realm, numerous forces exist, but all are structured as families. Family power outweighs everything, with family interests paramount. Evidently, family holds extreme importance to those in the Divine Realm.

The relationship between the Meng Family and the Giant Tribe wasn’t good, but the Giants originated from the Meng Family, an unchangeable fact.

Meng Zhi, as the latest leader of the Meng Family, had the authority to make Men Tian bow. If Men Tian refused, it would signify their disrespect of ancestors unless the Giant Tribe declared full independence from the Meng Family.

Men Tian’s large bell-like eyes flickered momentarily, then he slightly bent down, forming his hands into a bow and said to Meng Zhi: "Men Tian greets the Ancestor Patriarch!"

The powerful Divine Realm Seventh Level expert lowered his noble head, but Men Tian did not kneel, showcasing his attitude.

Men Tian admits they are descendants of the Meng Family, but this does not mean the Giant Tribe will follow the Meng Family’s command.

Men Zhi and Ye Li were very satisfied with this outcome. Men Zhi opened his mouth and said, "Men Tian, at ease, we are family. We have gone through great hardships, and now our ancestral land is occupied, our brothers have dwindled, our future is bleak. Now is the time for us to develop together, to grow together. I hope Men Tian can see the situation clearly, forget past grievances, and collectively seize the ancestral land to rekindle past glory."

Men Zhi once again used his status to overpower Men Tian, which was his strategy. If Men Zhi were at the Seventh Level of Divine Realm, and Men Tian only at the Sixth Level, he certainly wouldn’t speak so humbly.

To the Meng Family, the Giant Tribe are traitors and half-bloods...

Though Men Zhi’s words were oppressive, he acknowledged that the Giant Tribe belongs to the same lineage, indicating the Meng Family is willing to accept the return of the Giant Tribe and recognize them as a branch of the Meng Family.

The Giant Tribe’s ancestors broke away from the Meng Family and were designated traitors by their progenitors, although later silently permitted their existence, they never publicly recognized the status of the Giant Tribe.

Thus, the ancestors of the Giant Tribe died with regrets, leaving a will to warn all Giant Tribe leaders that they must find ways to gain recognition from the Meng Family and return to their lineage.

Men Zhi sent a signal, causing Men Tian’s heart to race a little, and after pondering for a while, he said, "What does the Meng Zhi Patriarch want us to do?"

Although Men Huo had revealed certain matters through special communication, he needed personal confirmation from Men Zhi.

Now that Men Zhi has extended the olive branch, naturally he would wait for the other side to propose conditions, weigh pros and cons, and then formulate a plan.

Men Zhi and Ye Li looked at each other, both somewhat excited. Men Tian appeared to care about the Meng Family recognizing the status of the Giant Tribe, which would make things much easier if true.

Men Zhi presented his envisioned conditions, but these weren’t his own ideas, rather they were discussed and decided by Ding Fan and Ye Li.

Men Zhi opened his mouth and said, "We have now occupied the entire Northern Wastelands, having a significant impact, intending to leverage its development and growth, and at any time in the future to return to the Central Plains to reclaim our ancestral homes. Therefore, we invite the Giant Tribe to join us in a shared venture."

The elder of the Giant Tribe, Men Huo, and others had a more pronounced mocking expression at the corners of their mouths, with meanings increasingly clear in their large eyes, seemingly silently accusing Men Zhi and the others of arrogance, as if speaking without thinking.

As the leader of the Giant Tribe, naturally Men Tian wouldn’t display too much emotion. After pondering for a while, he asked, "Do you possess great power? How many experts do you have now? How many experts at the Eighth Level of Divine Realm? And how many at the Seventh Level of Divine Realm?"

The focus was on this question, causing Men Zhi’s face to show a hint of embarrassment, and Ye Li also shared this sentiment. After thinking for a while, Men Zhi said, "We don’t have Seventh Level experts in the Divine Realm right now, but the master’s talent is extraordinary. Within a few years, he will certainly break through to the Seventh Level of Divine Realm, even the Eighth Level. As long as we have resources, our development along with the Ye Family will be swift, and by then, it’s not hopeless..."

Men Zhi’s voice grew increasingly faint, and even he lacked much confidence. Ye Li and the other elders of the Ye Family did not speak either, with each person’s expression not looking very good.

"Hahaha!"

Men Tian laughed while shaking his head, sighed and said, "Men Zhi, are you stupid? At that time, how were our two families wiped out? How were the Myriad Clans massacred? Are you fine now, and forget the pain after the wounds have healed? When the human race needs you, they will give you any promise; when they’ve exploited you, they will raise the slaughtering knife again. How can you stay loyal to him based on a man’s promise?"

"Even more pitiful is, you think he will lead you back to the Central Plains, to reclaim your ancestral home? Who are the enemies that destroyed your Meng Family and Ye Family? They are the six major powers of the Central Plains, with countless Seventh Level experts of the Divine Realm, numerous Eighth Level experts, and even Ninth Level experts existing among them. Do you think a mere human youth can lead you to revival? Is your head stuck in a door or something?"

Men Tian’s voice was quite loud, seemingly resonating through the entire space, causing Ye Li and Men Zhi to tremble slightly, even Ding Fan and Herr Ningshuang in the palace felt as if their ears were buzzing.

It must be acknowledged that Men Tian’s words weren’t groundless!

Remember in ancient times, the Myriad Clans were powerful, and the human race was extremely weak. Those powers of the Myriad Clans had never considered the weak humans as worthy. And the human race struggled to survive in the crevices among the Myriad Clans, trying every method to form alliances and gradually developed.

Once the human race grew stronger, they brandished weapons against the Myriad Clans, using extreme measures on those allies that once helped them, seizing resources and treasures from their territories, eventually exterminating many powerful clans among the Myriad Clans, occupying the richest lands in the Divine Realm and seizing all resources.

The rise of humanity was built upon the bodies of the Myriad Clans.

Even now, many clans remain hidden in their separate worlds, or in wilderness mountains, struggling to survive, just like humans once did, though they never forget the glory they once possessed or the hatred toward humans.
