The Sword God of the Universe-Chapter 1043: Quite Interesting

After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the sounds of battle gradually ceased, returning to calm.

The Little Knife Gang had just over a hundred people at their stronghold, and Jing Yan killed about half of them with one sword strike. The remaining people had no desire to resist and thought only of escaping immediately. If the Heavenly Origin Tribe hadn’t pursued them, the battle might have ended in just ten breaths.

The members of the Heavenly Origin Tribe had been severely oppressed by the Little Knife Gang over the years. Now that they had the chance for revenge, they certainly weren’t going to show mercy. They had no intention of letting those fleeing get away.

After Xing Kong ordered his men to clean up the Little Knife Gang’s stronghold, he approached Jing Yan.

The members of the Heavenly Origin Tribe soon returned, handing over all the resources they had scavenged from the Little Knife Gang’s base to Xing Kong.

Xing Kong looked at Jing Yan.

"Leader Xing Kong, I don’t need these resources." Jing Yan knew what Xing Kong wanted to say and spoke up before Xing Kong could.

"Brother Jing Yan, if you take nothing, the brothers might feel bad," Xing Kong said with a slight frown.

"The brothers don’t need to have any other thoughts. To be honest, taking these resources wouldn’t be much use to me. I and the tribe’s brothers are fellow villagers, so it’s only right to lend a hand. Everyone shouldn’t feel bad. Well, let’s return to the Heavenly Origin Tribe," Jing Yan said with a smile.

Xing Kong thought for a moment and said no more.

The group returned to the Heavenly Origin Tribe.

At this time, those guarding the Heavenly Origin Tribe had not yet received the news of the Little Knife Gang’s destruction. When they saw Leader Xing Kong return, they all inquired about the negotiations with the Little Knife Gang.

Next, the entire tribe was in an uproar. The Little Knife Gang had been eradicated, their stronghold leveled to the ground, which was obviously tremendously good news. The Heavenly Origin Tribe had struggled against the Little Knife Gang for many years, suffering more losses than gains.

They originally thought that after the Little Knife Gang killed Brother Che Yin, the Heavenly Origin Tribe would have to swallow their anger, because tearing up the face could lead to total annihilation. They never expected the Little Knife Gang to be wiped out just like that.

When they figured out that Jing Yan’s presence was the reason they could eliminate the Little Knife Gang, their gazes towards Jing Yan changed. There was more reverence in their eyes.

Back in the tribe, Xing Kong immediately gathered the elders for a meeting, and Jing Yan and Bi Fang naturally participated.

Although the Little Knife Gang was destroyed, they might still face an even greater threat. The Yushu Tribe was not to be trifled with. If Zeng Ya indeed held onto Yushu Tribe’s Elder Zhao Tuan’s thigh, the Heavenly Origin Tribe might soon suffer the wrath from the Yushu Tribe.

They needed to discuss a countermeasure quickly.

"Leader, should we get in touch with Yushu Tribe’s Elder Zhao Tuan to see where they stand?"

"Zeng Ya managed to curry favor with Elder Zhao Tuan by offering some resources. Whatever Zeng Ya can give, our Heavenly Origin Tribe can also give. Now that our Heavenly Origin Tribe controls an entire spirit stone ore vein, we are much richer in resources than before. If we can appease Elder Zhao Tuan’s anger, spending some resources is doable."

"Indeed. Since Zeng Ya said such things, he probably has a basis for it. If we do nothing, I fear Elder Zhao Tuan won’t let things slide."

Several elders expressed their opinions, almost unanimously agreeing that contact with Zhao Tuan was necessary, trying to gain his forgiveness.

Jing Yan listened from the side, only smiling without speaking. Given that they were fellow villagers, he could help the Heavenly Origin Tribe, but as he was not the tribe’s leader, he didn’t want to express too many opinions on how to handle this matter.

If Xing Kong and others believed sending out some resources could bring peace, Jing Yan would not deny it.

"Brother Jing Yan, what do you think?" Xing Kong raised his hand to quiet the elders and then turned to Jing Yan for his opinion.

"This matter should be decided by Leader Xing Kong and the elders," Jing Yan said with a smile. "The proposal from the elders could be worth trying. If Elder Zhao Tuan’s demands are not excessive, our Heavenly Origin Tribe can agree."

Seeing that Jing Yan concurred, Xing Kong and the others felt a bit more at ease.

Xing Kong immediately sent a messenger to deliver a letter to Elder Zhao Tuan of the Yushu Tribe.

Xing Kong was the leader of the Heavenly Origin Tribe, and if he personally met with Elder Zhao Tuan, it might indeed give Zhao Tuan more face. The problem was, no one could be sure of the outcome. What if Elder Zhao Tuan got angry and killed Xing Kong?

There was a considerable likelihood of this, as the Yushu Tribe was a giant compared to the Heavenly Origin Tribe, and wiping out the Heavenly Origin Tribe was just a matter of a thought. Killing Xing Kong, the tribe’s leader, probably wouldn’t be a concern for Zhao Tuan.

With the letter sent, there was nothing else to do but wait for Elder Zhao Tuan’s reaction.

Jing Yan and Bi Fang temporarily stayed in the Heavenly Origin Tribe.

Inside the Yushu Tribe.

"Heh heh..."

In a courtyard, after reading the letter sent by the Heavenly Origin Tribe, Zhao Tuan squinted his eyes and let out a cold laugh.

"Elder, could it be that the Heavenly Origin Tribe wants to latch onto us?" said a middle-aged martial artist in a brown robe.

This person was Zhao Tuan’s confidant. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

"Heavenly Origin Tribe? They’re nothing. They do want to latch onto us," Zhao Tuan said with a face full of chill.

"Investigate. To my knowledge, the Heavenly Origin Tribe is small in scale, and its leader is only a Five-star Void God. Hmph, it’s surprising that they were able to destroy the Little Knife Gang," Zhao Tuan said in a low voice.

The news of the Little Knife Gang’s destruction spread throughout the region. Many people were talking about it.

Everyone knew the strength of the Heavenly Origin Tribe. Logically, they were weaker than the Little Knife Gang. Yet, they suddenly wiped them out, which was puzzling.

Zhao Tuan was also confused, which is why he ordered an investigation to see what was really going on.

"Yes!" The confidant immediately responded and left.

In less than an hour, the confidant returned.

"Elder, it seems the Heavenly Origin Tribe had help. The reason the Heavenly Origin Tribe could destroy the Little Knife Gang was because of this individual’s intervention. I found some information. That person should be a member of the Luo Jiu Divine Palace. Some say that the person and the group of natives from the Heavenly Origin Tribe are from the same low-class world," the confidant reported in detail.

"Interesting." Zhao Tuan’s eyes flashed with cold light, releasing a faint killing intent that was quickly restrained.
