Chapter 35: Why Don't You Die ?
Twelve days later.
In the secret room, Fang Yuan used rank 5 turtle jade wolf skin Gu.
Upon meeting Fang Yuan, Hei Lou Lan immediately used turtle jade wolf skin Gu to entice him, which, in the eyes of bystanders, was a huge investment.
"Turtle jade wolf skin's modification is done. The next step is to improve my strength." Fang Yuan sat still upon his cushion, seizing the most of every minute, diligently improving his strength.
He sent out a strength of ten jun Gu.
As time passed, the strength of Fang Yuan slowly and steadily grew.
For quite some time, he cultivated his strength non-stop.
"I have already refined this body with turtle jade wolf skin, thus, it can hold about a hundred jun of strength. One hundred jun of strength or more would be the within the range of rank five realm."
Spring Autumn Cicada was gradually recovering, once again putting him under the pressure of death.
His frequent entering and exiting of Hu Immortal blessed land caused his supply of starlight firefly Gu to dwindle.
Fang Yuan let out a cold laugh, organizing his state of mind, and left his secret room.
Outside the secret room stood two rank three Gu Masters, standing like guardians.
"Greetings, Lord Wolf King." When the two Gu Masters saw Fang Yuan come out, they immediately saluted and reported to him, "Lord Hei Lou Lan invited the other lords to attend the banquet to conduct important business."
"There are important matters to discuss?" Fang Yuan's footsteps halted, and he changed his usual attitude towards banquets: "Let's go".
Rushing to the banquet, as he had expected, it was the matter of the blood oath.
The contract of the alliance already agreed on various things, and the leaders were now working on their individual tribes' interests. Fang Yuan looked at the contents and saw no issues, so along with everyone else, he used the poison vow Gu.
The main tent was brightly lit, with each tribe having their own seat.
Hei Lou Lan held the central seat, and the first to his left was Fang Yuan, with Ge Guang standing behind him.
Sitting after Fang Yuan were the leaders of the large tribes: Wang tribe, Fang tribe, and Ye tribe.
While down the line were the leaders of the medium-sized tribes, and finally the small scale tribe leaders, as well as the rank four demonic path experts.
Now, the alliance began its preliminary aggregation, before they were merely like loose sand.
"Hahaha, now everyone is family. According to conventional tradition, after having established our alliance, we need to hold a large feast. But these traditions and conventions are total bullshit! I've already thought of something better, rather than annexing those weaker powers, we should instead collect wild wolves." Hei Lou Lan began his speech.
Soon, all eyes concentrated on Fang Yuan's face.
Fang Yuan thought about it for a moment, and gave everyone a nod: "Since this is the case, I will do my part."
No one in the camp gave an objection.
Soon after their discussion, the entire Hei tribe alliance began to work actively. Gu Masters from tribes both large and small dedicated themselves to expanding Fang Yuan's wolf pack.
A few days later
Fang Yuan's wolf group had expanded to five hundred thousand, including many myriad wolf king and two wolf emperor's.
Now, they had already accumulated enough wolves, Hei Lou Lan who was full of hope had already been impatient.
"Then brother Lou Lan, which force do you want to attack first?" Fang Yuan asked.
Hei Lou Lan laughed heartily and patted Fang Yuan's shoulder: "Little brother is really sharp. I won't hide it from brother, I want to attack Cao Fu and eradicate Dong Fang tribe. Dong Fang tribe has lot of beauties, especially that Dong Fang Qing Yu who is a famous beauty in northern plains. I want to kill all their men and capture all their women! Hahaha…"
The next day, Hei tribe completely pulled out the camp and began a majestic expedition towards Cao Fu.
This news immediately attracted the attention of all kinds of forces.
The news of Hei tribe large expedition attracted almost all the attention of Dong Fang tribe. Zhao tribe got space for a breather and showed signs of moving their tribe towards a corner.
Dong Fang tribe's current tribe leader was a rank five wisdom path Gu Master Dong Fang Yu Liang.
After making deductions and forecasts over a night without resting, he immediately changed the stiff stance and changed the conditions for joining the alliance to become extremely lenient and generous.
Dong Fang Yu Liang personally travelled to invite Zhao tribe to join the alliance!
But just like Fang Yuan's previous life Zhao Lian Yun convinced the Zhao tribe leader to go to Ma tribe for alliance.
Hei tribe camp
"Zhao tribe tore down their camp and left?" Hei Lou Lan glanced at the information report before casually throwing it on the table.
"Congratulations to alliance leader, we have not even truly attacked and yet we managed to scare off a large scale tribe of the other side."
"Dong Fang Yu Liang should be bursting with rage, he had personally invited Zhao tribe but the other directly ran away, hahaha."
"In my opinion, Zhao tribe might be a large scale tribe, but they are nothing outstanding, they were actually such cowards. Hmph…"
The Gu Masters in the main tent commented one after another, not concerned about Zhao tribe's stance.
Fang Yuan who was sitting by the side swept his eyes through the information report on the table.
Zhao Lian Yun.
Hearing this name Fang Yuan chuckled inwardly: Zhao Lian Yun huh ? So she has once again gone to Ma tribe. I should capture both her and Ma Hong Yun during the battle of Imperial Court blessed land.
While Fang Yuan was thinking this others had started to talk about the strategy against Dong Fang tribe.
"If we talk of the greatest threat in this battle, it definitely is Dong Fang Yu Liang!"
"Right, this kid is young but has great experience and knowledge, accomplished in the four arts as well as astronomy and geology. He lost his parents at eleven, and he had to not only maintain his livelihood but also care for his then six year old little sister Dong Fang Qing Yu.
At the same time as everyone was discussing, their focal point — Dong Fang Yu Liang was also planning for this extremely important battle, in the study room.
Dong dong dong.
Three soft knocking sounds were heard.
"You can come in, sister." Dong Fang Yu Liang knew who was it without even raising his head.
The door was pushed open and a gentle, graceful and extremely beautiful girl wearing a light yellow dress came in with a bright appearance.
She had soft and glossy skin with eyes that were clear and transparent, her soft voice was full of concern: "Big brother, the jade apricot blossom we got from central continent should have blossomed. Big brother, accompany me to go look at them."
Dong Fang Yu Liang smiled, he knew he had worried his little sister by sitting in the study for a day and a night, and she was using this excuse to let him loosen up.
"Alright, let's go, Qing Yu."
The brother and sister walked out of the study together and arrived at the courtyard.
In the small courtyard, there were only the Dong Fang siblings.
The outside clamorous sounds were separated by the rainy curtain, making the small courtyard appear serene and quiet.
Especially that jade apricot blossom with its delicate and exquisite petals which appeared moist and glossy from the rain, and its soft yellow color, gave a comforting feeling to the siblings.
"Big brother, I heard Zhao tribe has moved?" After a while of silence, Dong Fang Qing Yu cautiously asked.
"Don't worry, little sister, big brother had already anticipated this." Dong Fang Yu Liang smiled and softly held his little sister's hand.
Dong Fang Yu Liang continued: "The reason I invited Zhao tribe was to gather all the strength I could. But them leaving is also of no great matter. With my current force, we can still win against Hei tribe army."
Dong Fang Qing Yu's worries disappeared by over half: "Nothing can escape big brother's deductions. But the opponent this time is not a small character. Not only is there Hei Lou Lan, I heard the previous hero of northern plains, Wolf King Chang Shan Yin, has also sided with him. Big brother, you need to be careful."
"Hehehe, little sister, do you still not believe your big brother? But…" Dong Fang Yu Liang softly comforted his little sister, a radiant light flashing in the depths of his pupils, "We first met Hei Lou Lan when we went to adventure, this person harbored unkind thoughts towards you and was taught a good lesson by me. But now, it seems this person has still not given up.
This time, big brother will teach him a lesson that he will never forget in all his life. As for Chang Shan Yin, big brother has a plan to deal with him. All these are within my plans, you just need to recuperate at ease. Your body has been weak since young, don't worry too much. If you become ill, it will only distract me."
The siblings quietly stood there, looking at the jade apricot blossom.
"Little sister, standing in the rain for too long is not good for health, you should go back to rest." After a while, Dong Fang Yu Liang spoke.
"Mm, big brother don't work too much." Dong Fang Qing Yu answered with her lovable voice.
"Hei Lou Lan himself is not an easy opponent, now there is Chang Shan Yin as well. Five hundred thousand wolves, really worthy of being an enslavement path master, just him alone can change the situation, causing this slightly superior Hei tribe to jump far ahead of my tribe."
"For this coming battle, our side must first deal with these five hundred thousand wolves. Otherwise, the hopes for victory will be extremely uncertain."
"I cannot lose! It was not easy for me to make Gu Immortal Old Ancestor agree; if I can complete this secret mission, the old ancestor will personally solve the source of the illness in my little sister. For my little sister, I must become the master of Imperial Court and enter Eighty-Eight True Yang Building!"
"Before this, anyone who dares to block my path must die! So, Wolf King Chang Shan Yin, why don't you die in this rain before the battle?"
Dong Fang Yu Liang looked at the dense dark clouds in the sky, his handsome face showing a very cold expression.
