I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself-Chapter 86 - 53: The Young Master Departs, Bo Division Comes from the South

"Back when the Lingyu Tribe rose in the Great Marsh, it relied on a relic..."

"Crack!"

A tremendous force surged from Shen Can's hand, and then Jifu was thrown against the cave wall like a dead dog.

Alright, hearing this is enough.

If it's true, I can look for it later when there's an opportunity.

If it's false, this dog would make up anything to save his life.

It's good that he's dead; otherwise, we'd need to have a Celestial Vein Realm tribesman watching him all the time.

Quickly, a tribesman came in and carried Jifu's corpse out, choosing a spot to douse it with beast oil, burning it to ashes.

A stream of water emerged under Shen Can's feet, carrying him into the Great Marsh.

Entering several miles into the waters, waves surged up, and the crocodile skull of the Tuo Lord surfaced on the water.

"Master."

The Tuo Lord saw that Shen Can still appeared in his Kui Ox state, shrouded in the water.

"How's the injury?"

"Thanks to the Witch Medicine you gave me, it's mostly healed."

"That'll do. Tonight, attack that gathering point ahead. Remember, just scare them, don't actually do harm."

Under the nighttime.

Guding Mountain gathering point.

Except for the watchful sentinels, everyone else was already asleep.

Crash!

Suddenly, streams of light surged from the water's edge, crashing down toward the houses.

Roar!

A roar echoed, and a water beast with a golden glow all over its body emerged in the water, flickering in and out of view.

The sudden change shocked everyone in the settlement awake. The sentinels began shooting arrows at the water, and figures emerged from the houses, running toward the depths of the land.

The beacons were lit.

Soon, rumbling sounds came from the water.

Someone looked back and saw two glowing figures fighting on the water's surface.

Water dragons soared, creating giant waves that crashed onto the shore, engulfing some fields and low-lying houses close to the water.

One could hear roaring sounds resembling dragon chants echoing.

Not long after, the sounds of battle moved toward the depths of the wetlands.

...

The next day.

Shen Can returned to the tribe.

He had considered whether to put on this act before, and eventually thought of it as just playing around.

With this performance, the 'Young Master Fu' of the Lingyu Bo Division has met his end.

People leave their names, just like geese leaving echoes, what if it's useful in the Lingyu Bo Division someday?

Moreover, it doesn't cost anything.

At the three-tiered training ground built on the tribe's land, from bottom to top, youths and Stone-Breaking, Mountain-Opening Realm Martial Artists were practicing.

As for why there were seemingly older tribespeople on the youth training ground,

don't ask.

Ask and the answer is they belong at the kids' table.

Apart from the tribespeople, there were also talented martial artists emerging from the subordinate tribes in the training ground.

Currently, there are thirteen gathering points, each one having tribespeople stationed there, passing on the low-quality Kui Ox Fist.

Even though Shen Can acquired many Quenching Techniques continuously from the Upper Huang and Upper Lake Divisions, he didn't bring them out for derivation, still letting the entire tribe focus intensely on the Kui Ox Fist.

The sole reason was to concentrate power and focus on one direction; now was not the time for Blazing Flame to spread its efforts.

If any subordinate tribe member showed talent, they would be absorbed into the tribe, receiving equal training intensity.

The tribe currently has a tier-three training system set up in martial arts, besides those youths who have just entered martial arts, others take on corresponding tasks during their cultivation.

Such as guarding, patrolling, hunting, and gathering, earning additional cultivation resources beyond the basic ones based on performance and achievements.

Right now, Huo Chang is working with the clan elders to analyze and prepare to tally all clanspeople's cultivation consumption, adjusting a more reasonable basic resource distribution system.

Besides, those holding clan elder or managerial positions within the tribe will receive corresponding cultivation resource subsidies.

All in all, it'll change the previous chaotic cultivation situation.

Of course, those with good talent will receive focused training with double resources.

This rare batch of seedlings in the Witch Hall is exactly in this category.

No other choice, given the scarcity of wizards.

Having nothing planned today, Huo Chang was also cultivating in the training ground.

Shen Can descended onto the training ground, lightly stomping on the cyan stone slab beneath his feet.

This is Cyan Blade Stone, extremely hard, capable of withstanding impacts of thirty Power of Desolations continuously.

It was exactly what Huo Chang brought back from the Upper Lake Division, using it as a layer of bricks for the training ground, Witch Hall, and Martial Hall.

"All done?"

Huo Chang strolled up to Shen Can.

"When the beacon was lit last night, I had Aqi go with the people, perform the whole act."

After capturing the Young Master Fu for the Flood Dragon, he naturally left.

Even if the Ape Mountain and Cyan Bird Divisions asked later, he'd say the same thing.

If the Bo Division Young Master leaves, were you expecting him to bid farewell?

"Acan, do you think we should select more robust women from the subordinate tribes into the tribe, encouraging a little birth within the tribe? Anyway, even if we have a few more children, we can afford to raise them now."

"Alright."

Shen Can nodded.

Encouraging childbearing will need long-term attention in the tribe.

The tribe currently, excluding himself, has seven Celestial Veins, dozens of Mountain Openings, and more than sixteen hundred Stone-Breaking Martial Artists within the subordinate tribes.

The Witch Hall is initially established, and the Martial Hall is forming its structure too.

Everything is moving onto the right track.

Next, they'll need to call upon the remaining souls of the ancestors to forge a Sacrificial Artifact belonging to Blazing Flame, becoming an upper-class tribe.

As they conversed, a black dot appeared on the distant water, moving closer and closer.

"It's Ashan coming back."

Soon, the Ironwood Ship sailed into the man-made river, heading towards the boat cave.

At the front of the boat, the Little Dragon Fish rushed to the bank of the artificial river, raised its head, and opened its mouth widely.

The children, who had long seen the return of the Ironwood Ship, gathered along the riverbank, vying to throw fruit into the Little Dragon Fish's mouth.
