Chapter 311: Qiang Yu
🕑 Added 2024-09-21 08:34:54 +0000 UTCAfter successfully killing the Xunyin Tribe leader, Lin Qian handed the giant bow to Qiang Yu, who was standing beside him. The golden hue in his eyes gradually faded away.
Imperial Power, a soul skill that Lin Qian had originally possessed, had evolved once again after he broke through to the Life and Death Realm. The effect of the Imperial Power skill was straightforward: it allowed Lin Qian to temporarily gain the abilities of a specific unit within his empire, but he could only utilize one unit's abilities at a time.
Earlier, Lin Qian had used Imperial Power to acquire Qiang Yu's abilities.
Qiang Yu, like Blood Battle, Gale Force, and Night Shadow, was an advanced unit within the six main military categories, specifically an advanced form of the archer unit.
Qiang Yu's capabilities were just as Yuan Xiang had observed—possessing powerful penetration and long-range attack capabilities.
With the coordinates provided by the Gale Force soldiers stationed at City One and City Two, Qiang Yu could even shoot an arrow from Gatekeeper City to those distant locations! Such was the power of Qiang Yu.
At this moment, the once-mighty army of the Xunyin and Wuxing Tribes was in complete disarray. Seeing that their two strongest leaders had fallen, panic spread even further among their ranks.
Those trying to flee found their paths blocked by Silver Moon Wolves. And even if the wolves didn’t stop them, Qiang Yu’s arrows would strike them down as they tried to escape.
On the city wall, Yuan Xiang watched the scene unfold and sighed deeply. He had initially thought that Lin Qian would send out the Blood Battle troops to face the enemy.
But to his surprise, the battle had ended in such a decisive manner.
The outcome was overwhelmingly one-sided. Although the Silver Moon Wolves had suffered some losses during the skirmish, with about a thousand of them falling, the enemy had lost nearly a million soldiers. The difference in casualties was incomparable.
Yuan Xiang now believed that Lin Qian would have no trouble exterminating the alien tribes in this small world.
"May I ask, how many soldiers can you summon, and how many of these war beasts do you have?" Yuan Xiang, standing beside Lin Qian, asked directly.
Lin Qian turned to face Yuan Xiang with a playful smile. "Why don't you guess?"
With that, Lin Qian turned and walked away, leaving Yuan Xiang with nothing but his retreating figure.
"This kid…" Yuan Xiang muttered with a helpless expression as he watched Lin Qian leave. He then turned his gaze back to the ongoing battle.
The fighting continued, but the Xunyin and Wuxing soldiers, unable to escape the relentless pursuit of the Silver Moon Wolves, were forced into a desperate last stand.
"Commendable courage, but against that kid's strange forces, it's useless," Yuan Xiang murmured, shaking his head as he watched the futile struggle of the Wuxing and Xunyin soldiers. A hint of satisfaction gleamed in his eyes.
The plans of the Xunyin and Wuxing Tribes were crumbling.
Lin Qian seemed capable of completely defeating these tribes and seizing control of this small world.
If he succeeded, the Human Territory wouldn’t have to worry about any threats coming from the portal in this small world.
"This kid… unknowingly, he’s done the Human Clan of the Soul Martial Continent a huge favor. In that case, the Yuan family will repay this favor on behalf of the Human Clan," Yuan Xiang thought to himself as he suddenly turned his ethereal form toward the portal and flew through it.
Lin Qian noticed Yuan Xiang leaving but couldn’t figure out what his purpose was.
However, Lin Qian didn’t dwell on it and instead returned to the central palace of Gatekeeper City, where he began to meditate and cultivate. The Xunyin and Wuxing Tribes were as good as dead, so there was no need to watch the battle any longer. It was better to spend the time refining his strength.
Deep within the Human Territory, in the heart of a bustling city nestled on a flat plain beneath a cliff, a grand city bustled with activity. Even the sect cities near the coastal gates paled in comparison to this city, which was a thousand times larger.
Yet, this was not a city but the estate of one of the Human Clan’s most prestigious families—the Yuan family, the ancestral home of the great Yuan Xiang.
On the cliff face overlooking the Yuan family's city, the entire mountain had been carved into the likeness of Yuan Xiang. Below this grand statue stood a humble wooden cabin.
In contrast to the magnificent Yuan family estate, this small cabin appeared almost shabby.
But the area surrounding the cabin was protected by terrifyingly powerful formations, and inside the cabin, an old man who bore a striking resemblance to Yuan Xiang sat cross-legged, meditating.
Suddenly, the old man opened his eyes, and the aura emanating from him caused the eighteen layers of powerful formations outside to tremble.
Without warning, a spectral figure emerged from beneath the cabin, floating before the old man.
The old man was startled, immediately bowing before the figure. "Greetings, Ancestor!"
"Little Supreme, you’ve made remarkable progress in a short time," Yuan Xiang said with a satisfied nod as he gestured for the old man to rise.
Yuan Zhizun slowly stood up, his face lighting up with joy at Yuan Xiang’s praise.
However, his expression soon turned to one of concern as he asked, "Ancestor, how are things in the Four Corners World?"
"Hahaha, there’s nothing to worry about," Yuan Xiang laughed heartily at his descendant's concern. "At first, I thought the Yuan family would inevitably have to take responsibility and face the current crisis if something went wrong."
"But now, things have changed. A certain young man has decided to wipe out the Xunyin and Wuxing Tribes in the Four Corners World and claim it for himself."
Yuan Zhizun looked at Yuan Xiang in shock. "Ancestor, did I hear that correctly?"
Yuan Xiang smiled and nodded. "You heard right. I won't go into the details now, but you'll get to meet that young man eventually. I came here for two reasons: first, to tell you not to worry about the Four Corners World anymore."
Hearing this, Yuan Zhizun visibly relaxed but then furrowed his brow. "Ancestor, are you sure it’s appropriate for someone to take control of the Four Corners World?"
However, Yuan Xiang's next words left Yuan Zhizun stunned.
"Of course it’s appropriate. From now on, that young man's words will carry the same weight as mine. In fact, he will hold a higher status in the Yuan family than you, Little Supreme. Do you understand?"
