Chapter 565: Why are you looking at me with those two eyes?
The moonlight was cool and clear.
This was an open plain, where the Giant Deer Cultivators were encamped, waiting for a response from the You Xiong Tribe.
If there was no response or the final response was unsatisfactory, the Giant Deer Cultivators would choose to take the initiative to strike and flatten the You Xiong Tribe, which had been passed down for thousands of years.
The campfire flickered as many Giant Deer Cultivators gathered in front of the fire, roasting the flesh of demon beasts and discussing something.
Cultivators had already practiced fasting and did not need to eat, but the flesh of demon beasts was extremely rich in Qi-Blood, which was very beneficial for those who practiced body cultivation and worked on their Qi-Blood.
Thus, eating demon beast flesh was a common practice for cultivators of the Barbarian Tribes.
“I heard the Clan Leader’s older brother of the You Xiong has returned?” someone casually asked, not really taking it seriously.
“He has returned, but what of it? Can he alone turn the tide?” another Giant Deer Cultivator responded disdainfully.
No sooner had he spoken than he suddenly frowned and looked into the distance, exclaiming, “There’s a situation!”
Inside the encampment, there was already some commotion, clearly, he was not the only one who had noticed something amiss.
The Giant Deer Cultivators rose into the air one by one, looking into the distance.
They saw streaks of escaping light converge, as a group of cultivators came rolling in.
This was nearly a hundred You Xiong Cultivators who, under the semi-coaxing, semi-forcing attitude of Lu Qingshan and the Clan Leader, had finally reached their destination in the dead of night.
This was a night raid.
Cultivators had night vision, did not need to rest at night, and with Divine Sense projected outward, there was little difference between night and day raids.
Yet, Lu Qingshan still chose to carry out the attack in the deep of night.
For no other reason than that the atmosphere was better and the mood felt just right.
“Who goes there?”
“It’s the cultivators from the You Xiong Tribe!” a Giant Deer Cultivator quickly responded, shouting loudly.
“What’s going on?” In the crowd, the Sacrificial Spirit of the Giant Deer Clan, Lu Man, frowned at the sight of the formidable group of You Xiong Cultivators approaching. “They didn’t even bring their Sacrificial Spirit and just led their cultivators in such a menacing manner. Are they coming to court death?”
On this expedition, he had brought along the clan’s Sacrificial Spirit.
With a fifth-grade peak Sacrificial Spirit holding the fort, what could the You Xiong Clan have to fight against them?
Had it not been for his desire to assimilate the You Xiong Clan, he would have pushed through with the Sacrificial Spirit long ago.
Assimilating a clan was much more difficult than exterminating one.
The most common and effective approach was to support a puppet from within the clan.
That was his original plan, to covertly connect with Youxiong Jin, the Sacrificial Spirit of the You Xiong Tribe, to preliminarily take control of the You Xiong Clan and secure a spot at the Dragon Gate.
Afterward, he intended to take advantage of Youxiong Jin’s conditions to cultivate Youxiong Jin’s son into a Sacrificial Spirit. In the process, by controlling Youxiong Jin’s son, he would control the You Xiong Tribe.
He had calculated his moves quite cleverly.
Seeing that Youxiong Jin was already quite tempted, Lu Man also knew that the Clan Leader was part of the war faction, but he was fairly certain this matter was almost a sure bet.
After all, although both the Clan Leader and the Sacrificial Spirit were clan authorities, in terms of status, the Sacrificial Spirit was actually a bit higher.
That’s because behind the Sacrificial Spirit, stood each clan’s most important foundation—the Sacrificial Spirit.
Thinking this, Lu Man’s reaction on his face was extremely quick, and he promptly made arrangements for all the clan’s cultivators to form a simple triangle formation, ready to let the You Xiong Cultivators get a bit closer before probing them.
Unfortunately, this time Lu Man would not get his way.
Because Lu Qingshan did not give Lu Man the opportunity to probe.
Leading the You Xiong Cultivators at the forefront, Lu Qingshan looked at the hurriedly formed triangle formation of the Giant Deer Cultivators from afar and was already shouting loudly:
“To live is what I desire, and so is righteousness. When I cannot have both, I will forsake life for righteousness.
The You Xiong has nurtured me for one hundred and fifty years, but now they must suffer the covetous eyes of these Giant Deer barbarians. To die for righteousness is today’s cause!”
His voice thundered, booming across heaven and earth.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Lu Qingshan had already turned into a streak of Radiance, hurtling towards the Giant Deer Cultivators’ formation like a shooting star.
Whether the You Xiong Cultivators behind him followed or not, he did not care. The Giant Deer Cultivators had something to say, but he cared even less.
“Older brother…” The You Xiong Clan Leader, originally ready to coordinate the assault, watched “Youxiong Hao” shout “To die for righteousness is today’s cause!” and charge forward. Suddenly, he felt his blood boil with passion.
Even knowing that Lu Qingshan was an outsider, he was still moved at that moment. The other You Xiong Cultivators, seeing the back of Youxiong Hao as he dashed forward, felt a stirring in their hearts.
“Would we tolerate the disdain of these barbarians, or see our people suffer and do nothing?
Today either we exterminate these barbarians and clear the air of their presence, or we of the Bear Clan shall be the first to die!” The You Xiong Clan Leader shouted, “Follow Elder Hao and charge!”
Then, under the incomprehensible gaze of the Giant Deer Cultivators, the You Xiong Cultivators had already charged with the might of dragons and tigers, almost upon them.
They seemed ready to take on a hundred in battle.
“Stop!” A Giant Deer Cultivator stepped forward to block Lu Qingshan, his Blood Qi surged tremendously, and he was about to throw a punch.
Whoosh!
The figure of Lu Qingshan flashed by his side, so fast that only a shadow was left in his wake.
In the blink of an eye, the Giant Deer Cultivator attempting to stop Lu Qingshan had already been beheaded, blood spraying everywhere.
“Terrifying indeed!” the Giant Deer Cultivators gasped upon witnessing this scene.
Lu Man’s eyelids twitched as well.
Who was this person, and why was he so barbaric?
With his sword in hand, Lu Qingshan went on as if he owned the place, continuing to strike. In moments, several more had been beheaded.
“Such a savage, bullying the younger generation, what does that prove?” Lu Man’s eyes were about to split with rage.
