The older generation was like this, needless to say the younger generations in Wolf Territory were all looking at Chu Tianxiao and Xue Yan with admiration.
"Boss Blood Wolf, he is indeed Boss Blood Wolf! His vision is just different from ours!"
"Hmm... why is he called the boss? The boss's boss is indeed more powerful!"
"After today, our Wolf Territory will reach the top!"
"This scene will surely go down in history!"
At the moment, Chu Tianxiao didn’t know how future history books would record today’s events, but he knew that today was actually just a beginning, not an end.
So in the face of the excitement of the people in the Wolf Territory, he remained calm enough. With a wave of his hand, he handed over the subsequent "cleanup" work to them. He only gave them some instructions for precautions. At the same time, he asked them to contact Old Man Black Swamp to prepare for the exchange.
Following Chu Tianxiao's assignment, most of the people left soon, leaving only Xue Yan and Feng Luoer serving him.
"Blood Rock."
Chu Tianxiao called out, and then threw the "crystal" that had been reunited into Xueyan's hands.
"I have cast a spell on it. From today on, you can take charge of this Dragon Marquis Secret Realm on my behalf. Well, there is a matter that is not too difficult, and I want to entrust it to you."
After these words were spoken, Xue Yan and Feng Luoer were both stunned - it was not their fault for being simple-minded, but... Chu Tianxiao's action was really too shocking!
What kind of treasure is the Dragon Marquis Secret Realm? And now he has entrusted it to a lackey
What kind of trust is this
Such behavior cannot be described as crazy enough. Only someone like Chu Tianxiao could do such a thing...
“Young Master, you can’t do that!” Xue Yan half-knelt on the ground after coming to his senses. “I am honored to be trusted by you, Young Master. However, the Dragon Marquis Secret Realm is of great importance and I am not the one who can do that… Besides, I have…”
Having said that, Xueyan lowered his head slightly, gritted his teeth, and clenched his fists tightly.
Both of them understood what he was talking about.
Looking back, Xue Yan had protected Lu Meir on her way to the camp in the Wilderness Mountains, but he was eventually captured and the mission failed. Although it was an unexpected incident and there were reasons for it, for Xue Yan, failure is failure and there is no excuse!
He...had betrayed the trust of his young master.
This has always been Xueyan's heart knot.
Feng Luoer saw it all, but didn't know how to comfort him, so she looked to Chu Tianxiao for help. He nodded slightly and said, "Xueyan, on the way here, I should have told you about the dispute in the Imperial Garden. At that time, my father gave the 'Purple Robe' to my Third Uncle out of trust. What he can do, I can do too."
Chu Tianxiao looked at the blood rock and his expression became extremely serious.
"Trust is not just talk."
"I believe you won't make mistakes again. I think you are the best candidate, so I'll leave this matter to you."
"In other words, if I trust someone, I just entrust the matter to him, why would I care about anything else?"
"So, instead of shirking your responsibilities, you might as well think about how to do this well."
After these words were spoken, the look in Xueyan's eyes gradually became extremely firm!
He punched the ground heavily, lowered his head slightly, and his voice was more firm than ever before: "Your subordinate Xueyan will obey your order!"
Seeing this, Feng Luoer immediately cast a grateful look at Chu Tianxiao and said with a smile: "Hehe, young master still has a way! Luoer has tried many times to untie Brother Xueyan's knot, but I didn't expect you to solve it with just a few words! Now, Brother Xueyan will definitely have no inner demons in the next step of cultivation. Young master, you are awesome!"
Hearing this, Chu Tianxiao shook his head and smiled, but did not respond. He just looked at Xue Yan and nodded, saying, "Well, this is my Chu Baijia's lackey."
"Now I tell you, what you need to do is very simple. That is, revenge!"
After hearing this, Xue Yan was stunned for a moment, then his pupils shrank sharply, and he looked at the crystal: "Young Master, what are you saying?!"
Chu Tianxiao didn't reply, but smiled, waved his hand and walked away.
"Remember not to kill him, just torture him until he has no desire to live. This chess piece can be of great use to my big chess game..."
…
…
Following Chu Tianxiao's instructions, all matters in the Savage River Basin went smoothly as everyone in the Wolf Domain had expected.
Everyone can see the situation clearly, that is, if the Wolf Territory wants to unify the Savage River Basin, what it lacks now is just some patience.
With the overall situation already decided, no force here can make any more waves. Occasionally, there are a few who refuse to obey, but they are quickly crushed and flattened...
Everything seems to be in order.
However, despite being sure of victory, Chu Tianxiao was not so complacent as to completely relax. On the one hand, he stepped up efforts to gather forces in the Savage River Basin and recruited strong soldiers. On the other hand, he sent a message back to inform the Great Zhou court of the current situation and request support to deal with the unwilling counterattacks of neighboring countries... After finishing a lot of work, Chu Tianxiao breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to lean back in his chair to take a rest, he heard the footsteps of Xueyan outside.
"Young Master, there is news from Old Man Black Swamp!"
"Hmm? What do you mean?" Upon hearing that, Chu Tianxiao was immediately startled and all sleepiness disappeared, and he asked.
"My Lord, according to previous negotiations, this person is willing to let all the Black Swamp Army join the Wolf Territory in exchange for your land, but... he also added a condition. He hopes to meet with you and make a bigger deal."
"Oh?" Hearing this, Chu Tianxiao narrowed his eyes, then he gently knocked his hands. After thinking for a moment, he sighed with some appreciation: "It is true that he is getting stronger with age. This person really knows how to deal with the world."
Xue Yan was a little confused when he heard this: "Uh, what did the young master say?"
"The old man from the Black Swamp... wants to leave the Black Swamp." Chu Tianxiao didn't keep the question in suspense and gave the answer directly.
After these words were spoken, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on Xueyan's face, but he soon figured out the key.
"It is a crime to possess a treasure!"
"Smart! Old Man Kuronuma has a special training method that can cultivate the 'Kurouma Strong Army', making the Kuronuma soldiers the best in the world. How can such a 'strange man' not be coveted by all parties? It is because Kuronuma's geographical advantages are too strong and Old Man Kuronuma has profound cultivation, otherwise I am afraid he would have been abducted long ago. Of course, the most critical reason why he can survive safely until now is the constraints from all parties - no party can attack Kuronuma at all costs, because that means that it will be taken advantage of by others! It is also because of the ability to check and balance that Old Man Kuronuma has been able to thrive and enjoy himself for so many years..."
"If you carefully study the members of the 'Black Swamp Army' he has sent out over the years, you will know that he has been 'reinforcing the weak' most of the time. This person is quite like the noble families who waited for Jia Ergu during the chaos in Shenzhou. He made bets on all sides, adding incense to all parties, but maintaining a transcendent position."
"But now, the situation has changed! The Wolf Territory will soon unify the Savage River Basin, and by then they will surely form an encirclement of the Black Swamp. To put it in a more vivid way, by then, the Black Swamp will be nothing more than a dish on our plate! And this situation will not be tolerated by the major empires! So, Xueyan, if you were them, what would you do?"
Xueyan immediately responded: "No matter the cost, even if we have to send out hidden great practitioners and use all means, we must get the Black Swamp Elder!"
"If you really can't get it, just kill him! Kill him openly or secretly, by any means necessary!"
Chu Tianxiao nodded: "So, if old man Heiyan stays here, it will inevitably lead to endless troubles, so he has to leave. Ha, is this the rhythm of entrusting all his belongings to the world and traveling light? Yes, this is in line with his usual way."
After thinking for a while, Chu Tianxiao asked, "Did the old man Heiyan tell me the details of the transaction?"
"Reporting to the young master, he did say something vaguely."
"A valuable treasure, a piece of information, a map..."
Xueyan paused and continued, "As for what he wants, we don't know. He only said that he would tell the details after meeting the young master in person."
