Although Qianye was mentally prepared for the pressure from the werewolves from the upper continent, but now that he heard their interference logic with his own ears, he had to admit that it was still a big deal.
The werewolves in the form of primitive tribes were not recognized because of their ignorance and backwardness and their limited potential. When Qianye brought them out of the primitive, towards civilization, and reached the standard recognized by the peaks, they became "clan members". And those old fellows at the top of the peak will not let the "clan" be ruled by Qianye.
In other words, if no one cares, then the Yonglu werewolves can only fend for themselves, and if someone cares, they will come to receive the fruit. So logical, no matter how you listen, how rogue.
No matter how much Qianye complained in his heart, seeing William's helpless face, he knew that reasoning was futile.
Qianye said bluntly: "Then what are they going to do with these 'clan members'? What about all the resources I have paid?"
"What else do you want to calculate? It's good that you haven't been held accountable for enslaving our people. You still want compensation? What a beautiful idea!" William said sarcastically.
Qianye said lightly: "Then don't blame me for being rude."
William laughed loudly, "Finally figured it out? But don't worry, at least I will stand by your side."
"It doesn't seem to be of much use."
William was immediately annoyed, "I'm a big shot now! Even ordinary vice dukes are no match for me!"
"You also said that it's an ordinary vice duke. I'm also a vice duke. Would you like to have a try?"
"You..." William glared at Qianye, but he had no intention of doing anything, not even interested in trying.
William and Qianye have fought against each other more than once, so he is very clear that he may not be able to win if both sides have the same cultivation level, and now there is a difference of one level, that is, there is no victory. Moreover, this guy Qianye also has such perverted and rogue skills as Void Flicker, if he can't defeat him, he may not even be able to escape smoothly.
Seeing William deflated, Qianye finally let out a little sulking. But when he thought about it again, he didn't feel particularly disadvantaged. Being able to obtain the Gale Wind collar without bloodshed, and having a helper like the Duke of Gale Wind, even though it was only three years, was a huge gain. How could he not pay the price? Being involved in the werewolf civil strife is probably the necessary price.
It's just that the Duke of Galewind is both a help and a hidden danger. No matter how strong Qianye's force is, no matter how good the momentum is, there is no guarantee that there will be no omissions or low tides. When everything goes well, it is okay. If there are twists and turns, how to ensure that Duke Haifeng will not suddenly stab him in the back is really a headache.
But what Qianye thought of, William had already thought of it. He said to the Duke of Hurricane: "Since we have reached an agreement, let's swear in the name of the ancestor's soul."
The Duke of Hurricane's face changed slightly, but he still said: "I am the greatest ancestor, the former great chief of the Tiritzk tribe..."
"Wait." William interrupted him, and said, "You should swear on the soul of the chief priest of the Tiritzk tribe."
Duke Hurricane's expression completely changed, "You know this too?"
"In the library at the top of the peaks, there is a complete family tree passed down by the bloodlines of the major tribes for thousands of years. So you should not think about what you shouldn't have, lest everyone look bad."
The Duke of Hurricane was silent for a moment, and then he recited the oath again. This time he looked solemn and solemn, and Qianye felt a mysterious force coming from somewhere, sinking into Duke Galewind's body. This power is very obscure, very similar to the power produced by the werewolf prayer ceremony. If Qianye hadn't been personally transformed by that mysterious force, it would be difficult to detect its existence.
It seems that swearing by the soul of the ancestors does have a substantial restraint effect on werewolves, and judging from the response of Duke Galewind, he also attaches great importance to the real oath.
After going through such a procedure, Duke Haifeng obviously put away his extra thoughts, and Qianye's vague sense of danger disappeared.
The Duke of Haifeng didn't stay long, and immediately returned to Haifeng to arrange the handover. And Qianye also found the aristocratic allied forces who were camping, and ordered them to garrison on the spot, stop attacking, and strictly prohibited any further acts of torturing and killing werewolves.
Over the past few days, after being supplemented by elite werewolf fighters, the coalition forces of the aristocratic family have shown amazing combat effectiveness. They have advanced nearly 100 kilometers in a series of battles, defeated the coalition forces of various tribes led by the blast several times, and killed nearly 100 kilometers. One hundred thousand.
Of course, Qianye will not just leave this troop like this. He is planning to deploy it to the front line bordering the Burning Fire Dukedom after the Gale Wind Territory is merged. According to William, the Duke of Burning Fire should be the backbone of the ancestors. The ancestor faction will definitely come to trouble Qianye, so the Duke of Burning Fire will be the vanguard to make trouble.
For the Ancestor Sect, Qianye also didn't have any good impressions, so naturally he didn't mind giving Duke Burning Fire a head-on blow.
The Duke of Galewind and the Duke of Burning Fire have been rivals for many years, and no one has been able to take advantage of it for decades, which means that there will be no disadvantage in the power balance at the level of the strong. As long as the strong do not suffer, with the combat power and tactical quality of the elite private army of the imperial family, the advantage in dealing with the primitive tribal werewolves is extremely obvious.
After setting everything up, Qianye had time to chat with William in detail, asking about the details of the dark race's new world development.
William said with a bitter smile: "Our development is extremely difficult. So far, we are still stuck in front of a forest of the Three Sacred Trees. We have made no progress and suffered heavy losses. This is the best progress. The situation in the other two continents is even worse. The impact of the beast army was underestimated, and the defense army of a continent was even dispersed by the beast army, and the entire army was wiped out."
Qianye was greatly surprised, and said: "Didn't you open the door to the new world? You also mobilized your troops early, how could this happen?"
"There are no werewolves in the team responsible for opening the new world gate."
"How did the door open?"
"I don't know." William replied simply.
Qianye never expected that werewolves would be so marginalized, that they would be completely unable to participate in such an important event as the opening of the new world gate. The title of one of the four major dark races now seems to be in jeopardy. The cessation of the jihad has not brought any improvement to the situation of the werewolves, but has exacerbated their loss of the right to speak in the camp's high-end affairs.
It's no wonder that William would take the initiative to come to his door to help Qianye conquer the Gale Wind collar, and hand over tens of millions of werewolves to him.
It seems that the opening of this new world has really stimulated the peak of the group, and it has also prompted William, a man of insight among werewolves, to make up his mind to solve the cancer that hinders the development of werewolves from the ancestor faction.
It's just that Qianye's position is a little awkward. From his point of view, is he going to help the werewolves get rid of their shackles and embark on the road to prosperity? After all, the werewolf is a long-lived species, one of the four dark races, and a strong enemy of the human race. Raising enemies doesn't sound like a good idea.
The situation of the werewolves in Yonglu was very special. Qianye's original vision was only to let them have food, and they didn't need to exchange for the survival of the old and weak. If there is no external force to intervene, even if the social form of the werewolves in Yonglu is improved, it will still take a long time to naturally develop to the level of the upper continent. After all, Qianye has no way or plan to promote the leapfrog evolution of their power lineage. But if the upper continents intervene, it will be completely different.
For Qianye, there was no middle ground for this choice. Either help the werewolves of Yonglu break the shackles and face an uncontrollable future, or sit back and watch them continue to struggle in their original destiny.
But at least the werewolves in the Great Corridor and the Emerald Sea in front of them are sincerely loyal, not only driven by them on the battlefield, but also treat Qianye as a demigod. The mysterious power he got from the werewolf prayer ceremony is the most authentic feedback.
Qianye shook his head inwardly, and continued to listen to William's explanation of the werewolf's current situation. Because they were excluded when the new world opened, subsequent information sharing was not in place. All they know is that they need to gather forces, but what the target is is not so clear.
Among the three continents where werewolves dominate, the great lord of one of them is extremely arrogant. Not to mention the lack of assembled troops, not enough fortifications have been built, and the mix of arms is not complete. As a result, he lost the first wave of attacks by the alien beast army. It was terrible, and it was completely defeated under the second wave of offensive.
The bad thing is that the command of this force is the ancestor faction, but most of the troops come from the werewolf tribe of the enlightened faction. Originally giving up the command position was a concession made by a few conservative old men on the top of the peak to the ancestors. After all, the ancestors also gathered strong people. But they didn't expect that this concession would cause such disastrous consequences, and nearly 100,000 werewolf elite troops were wiped out.
Qianye inquired about the battle situation in detail, and found that the problem was insufficient troops and improper command.
After the first failure, the ancestor sent the strong man into a rage and gathered the remnants to prepare for another battle, but completely ignored the issue of air defense and rear defense. As a result, under the assault of a large number of alien beast troops in the air, the rear heavy fire support troops were all wiped out, resulting in a complete collapse of the record. Seeing that the situation was not good, this ancestor faction strongman ran away first, which led to the defeat of the werewolves.
Although the tops of the peaks acted quickly to stabilize the situation on this continent, the development progress was far behind, and the number of fighters who could be sent to the new world was very limited.
In the new world, the situation of the werewolves was not much better than Qianye's back then. They could only get limited information from the other three clans, and most of the time they still had to figure it out by themselves. After several consecutive vicious battles, the werewolf's vitality was seriously injured.
To Qianye's surprise, from William's description, he was basically sure that when the werewolves attacked, the six-armed creatures in the forest were in an awakened state. Legion support, causing great casualties to werewolf powerhouses. In the end, the werewolf barely managed to kill a six-armed commander of the Three Sacred Tree Forest by relying on the combined attack of the three duke-level powerhouses.
Qianye has a deep understanding of how terrifying a sober six-armed creature is. It wasn't until this time that he really realized his luck. Almost all the six-armed creatures he met were in a state of sleep, and he discovered their weaknesses early on. Basically, he successfully attacked and severely injured them in one face-to-face, and then relied on the base to eliminate the alien beast army. Then focus on attacking its sojourners. In the process of being beaten out of the sojourner, the six-armed creature would suffer another serious injury, and even a god would not be able to bear it twice.
The werewolf was facing a six-armed creature that was sober and free to move, and they had no other means but to force it head-on. No wonder they fought so hard.
Qianye hesitated for a while, but in the end he still didn't tell William the weakness of the six-armed creature. After all, the werewolf is the enemy of the Dawn faction, and the new world has been developed to a certain extent, and the two sides are likely to clash head-on. The relationship between Qianye and William is also delicate. William upholds goodwill, but he cannot represent all werewolves.
After seeing off William, Qianye returned to the Duke's Mansion in the City of Blue Waves. The upper floor of the Duke's Mansion is Qianye's temporary residence, ordinary people are not allowed to enter without permission. After taking down the city of blue waves, Qianye didn't have time to repair it, and most of it still kept its original appearance. Therefore, at night, the corridor looks dark and deep, quite eerie.
Qianye walked in the long corridor, the footsteps echoed faintly, and there was no one around. When he walked past a torch wall lamp, the shadow behind him suddenly twisted unnaturally.
Qianye stopped and said calmly, "Come out by yourself, it's not good to let me do it."
A figure came out of the darkness, came behind Qianye, gently blew on the back of his neck, and said, "Why, don't you welcome me?"
