Chapter 756: Wild After-Support Troops of the Cult Annihilation Battalion

Deep in the mountains, a brawny young man, with a bared right arm and shoulder, and his lower body clad in animal hide armor, held a wolf-tooth club. He roared like a wounded beast and charged towards the ancient village.

"Who dares to invade my village!" he roared. Carrying a wild dragon tens of feet long, he traversed the stone cliffs as if walking on flat ground, quickly arriving before them.

Ye Fan was startled. For a moment, it was as if he saw the barbarian of old. From a distance, this person strongly resembled Dongfang Ye from over a decade ago—equally wild, burly, and powerful.

Li Tian was strolling outside the village and hadn't yet figured out what was happening when the young man approached. Stepping onto the scarred earth, he swung the wolf-tooth club with one hand and slammed the other forward.

In that instant, Li Tian grimaced, his entire arm feeling as if it would break, covered in bloody marks. Luckily, he retreated quickly, dodging the blow as soon as it connected, otherwise half his body might have been crushed.

"Man'er, don't be rude, these are our benefactors," the Fifth Uncle-Ancestor and Seventh Uncle-Ancestor of the village quickly arrived and said.

Dongfang Man, who appeared to be in his twenties, had a bare upper body with bulging muscles like coiled dragons. His skin was bronze, strong and powerful, and his thick black hair reached his waist, exuding a wild, masculine beauty.

"You must be Dongfang Ye's younger brother, right?" Ye Fan also came closer, examining the young man. He truly resembled his old acquaintance.

"It's as if an ancient savage beast took human form," Li Tian said, baring his teeth. His strength was extraordinary, capable of looking down on all Holy Lords, but in a physical confrontation, he was completely defeated by this barbarian.

This was, of course, a misunderstanding. Dongfang Man had been out hunting. On his way back, he heard about the changes in the village and, with bloodshot eyes, rushed back. He collided with Li Tian, mistaking him for an enemy.

In the ancient village, Dongfang Ye and Dongfang Man were unique. They possessed the incredibly rare Primeval Battle Blood, capable of uprooting mountains, and their physical bodies far surpassed ordinary people. Except for the Holy Body, no one could compare to them.

The two brothers practiced the same cultivation method and grew up in similar environments. They usually roamed the deep mountains and ancient forests for ten days to half a month at a time, subsisting on wild dragons and fierce tigers, thus forging their divine martial arts.

A red glow flashed in Ye Fan's hand, revealing a battle spear polished from blood diamonds. Nine true dragons coiled around the shaft, lifelike, with their nine heads gathered at the tip, collectively forming a sharp, shimmering spearhead.

Dongfang Man, feeling embarrassed, scratched his head and stepped forward to apologize, then accepted the precious gift with delight.

Several elders in the village gasped in surprise; they were connoisseurs and knew the gift was exceptionally valuable.

This weapon was forged from blood diamonds, a component of Nine Heavens Divine Jade, making it the top choice for crafting king-tier weapons. It could grow into a Saint's weapon, indestructible and robust. Ye Fan had seized it from the Nine-Headed Flood Dragon King in the Ziwei Star Domain.

"I will avenge my brother and slaughter that Zi Tiandu!" Dongfang Man swore, his hair disheveled.

"I believe Ye'er is not dead..." A hint of sadness flickered in the eyes of the Seventh Uncle-Ancestor of the village. The barbarian had been trained by his own hands.

"This place is no longer safe; perhaps it's time to return to the clan," the Fifth Uncle-Ancestor said.

Deep within these mountains lived an ancient tribe, descendants of several ancient Saints. Its members were powerful and fierce, practicing the Primeval Martial Arts Scripture, and formed a formidable tribe unknown to the outside world.

This small village was originally part of that tribe, but several generations ago, it had separated due to a dispute. The larger tribe had repeatedly invited them to return.

"Roar..."

From afar, a long howl echoed, shaking the mountains. Seven or eight old men, their hair like tangled grass, with bare upper bodies and animal hide clothes, either carrying wolf-tooth clubs or wielding large axes, roared and charged like a group of demonic gods, as if to collapse all the mountains.

"Damn it, where are those bastards who dared to bully our clansmen? Come out and die!"

"Where are they all? We're here! Get out here quickly! You dared to provoke our clansmen; we'll rip off your heads and kick them like balls!"

These were incredibly fierce old men, even more formidable than young lads. They charged in with such ferocity, as if a million-strong army had descended, causing a momentary chaos.

These were clearly barbarians. Their attire was similar to the villagers, but they were far more uninhibited, all of them bristling with anger and yelling wildly.

They had just been discussing the ancient tribe, and unexpectedly, they had arrived, disheveled and incredibly wild.

This left Li Tian and Yan Yixi dumbfounded. These old men were too fierce, yelling and brandishing their clubs like Primeval War Gods.

"Where are they? Where are those bastards? We're here to kill, where did they all die?" the old men shouted.

Everyone in the ancient village was deeply moved. Even the eyes of the Fifth Uncle-Ancestor, Seventh Uncle-Ancestor, and other elders turned red, firming their resolve to return to the clan.

"Little Five, Little Seven, Little Nine, listen to me, can our clan truly be bullied to this extent? Those bastards daring to come to our doorstep and kill us are simply tired of living. This isn't over! Even the Divine Dynasty of Central State, we'll overthrow them this time!"

"Yes, kill them all! We'll beat their guts out!"

The seven or eight old men who arrived were so wild they stunned the younger generation, each one incredibly uninhibited.

"Upon hearing the news, we rushed over as if our asses were on fire, and a large group is still behind us. Tell us, which clueless scoundrels did this? Today, we'll go there and slaughter them, leaving not a single one alive!"

Not just the villagers, but even Ye Fan, Yan Yixi, and Li Tian felt a warmth in their hearts and their blood boiling. Although these old men were wild, they were truly sincere and created no distance between them.

"Kill them all...!"

"Where are those bastards? Don't let a single one escape! Kill them!"

Suddenly, people appeared everywhere, covering the mountains and plains, like hordes of great demons capable of summoning wind and rain, plucking stars and seizing the moon. The very heavens and earth trembled.

Countless barbarian powerhouses, clad in animal skins and wielding large clubs, swept in from all directions, filling the sky. Their formidable aura made all the mountains tremble, an utterly terrifying sight.

Witnessing this scene, even Ye Fan felt his scalp tingle. This was a gathering of ancient, savage warriors, and together, they were truly terrifying.

Their battle aura soared to the heavens, tearing apart the clouds in all directions. Any master witnessing it would be filled with dread.

Li Tian's scalp prickled, and goosebumps covered his body. Feeling incredibly uneasy, he nudged Ye Fan and whispered, "I say, aren't the people of the Big Dipper Star Domain too abnormal? Even a primitive tribe is this powerful. How am I supposed to make a living or spread my lineage? I might as well have stayed obediently in the Ziwei Star Domain. These people are truly living ancestors."

"What primitive tribe? In ancient times, the entire Southern Ridge belonged to our barbarian race! If not for our revered ancestor later retreating into the mountains, who would we fear?" an old man with messy hair said, his eyes wide and muscles bulging like wild dragons as he leaned on his great club.

It was unclear how many people had arrived, but the villagers of the ancient village couldn't help but shed tears of emotion. This was the bond of blood thicker than water, and returning to the clan had become inevitable.

"After all these years, the clan finally produced two precious children with Primeval Battle Blood, both in your village. You should have returned to the tribe long ago..." An old man began to scold the Fifth Uncle-Ancestor and Seventh Uncle-Ancestor of the village, almost spewing a torrent of abuse. Yet, with fiery eyes, he held Dongfang Man's hand, a display of affection that made one's hair stand on end, and made the barbarian's brother utterly uncomfortable.

"Where's your brother?" a group of elders asked Dongfang Man.

"My brother might have died in battle a few months ago," Dongfang Man whispered.

"Damn it! Who did it? Was it those bastards from just now? Gather the men, we're going to fight them! Have we, who live in seclusion, cut off from the outside world and bothering no one, been bullied to this extent? Kill them all, damn them!" A group of old men instantly became enraged, swinging their great clubs as if they would pierce the sky.

"How many generations has it been? We finally got two precious children with Primeval Battle Blood, such a rare physique, and one actually died! I'll butcher their ancestors!" Fierce, wild, domineering, uninhibited... These old men truly seemed like reincarnated Primeval War Gods, bellowing wildly.

Any previous estrangement between the ancient villagers and the primitive tribe vanished in that moment, and they were about to be reunited.

"We've been in seclusion for too long, completely cut off from the outside world. We didn't even know such a major event had occurred. We've failed our ancestors."

The barbarian elders pounded their chests and stomped their feet, filled with righteous indignation. Upon learning it was the doing of the Wang family from the Northern Plains, they immediately decided to go and kill them.

"Kill them all, dig three feet deep, and stomp even the blind baby mice to death! How dare they bully our clansmen! Damn it, let's act immediately! Gather all the clan's experts and wipe out their entire family! We'll beat their guts out! What damned Wang family, what immortal legacy? We'll overturn and annihilate them all!" Li Tian gasped, saying, "A bunch of fierce guys, damn it, even my blood is boiling! I really want to join them in the slaughter. These old geezers are too wild!"

"Since you, esteemed elders, wish to take action and dispatch troops to the Northern Plains, I am willing to go through fire and water and fight at the forefront," Ye Fan declared.

He then offered his opinion: if they truly intended to deal with the Wang family, they needed ample preparation. After all, it was an ancient aristocratic family that had produced human Saints, with a long and terrifying legacy.

"This young man is right," an old man said. "If we're going to kill, we'll leave no one alive. Didn't they want to butcher our clansmen? This time, we'll plan carefully and completely wipe out these bastards!"

While they had boisterous personalities, they were not all reckless. Having lived to such advanced ages, many were shrewd and understood much.

"Yes, let's plan this out thoroughly and kill them all in one battle!" another elder said, swinging a stone axe.

Ye Fan said, "Elders, your tribe is isolated from the world, which is perfect for undisturbed preparation. I will go outside to attract their attention. When everything is ready, we will storm into the Northern Plains like divine soldiers and generals, and annihilate the Wang family!"

"Young man, what do you intend to do?" an old man asked.

Ye Fan replied, "The Wang family head has come to the Southern Ridge and is a guest at the Demon Emperor Palace. I'm going to kill him!" "What? That bastard is in our Southern Ridge? The Demon Emperor Palace is a very dangerous place. Gather people immediately and go cleave him apart!" These people instantly began shouting, unable to sit still.

"He is merely the head of the Wang family. There's no need for you seniors to make a move. I alone am enough to take his head!" Ye Fan said, his voice resolute and forceful.

"Good, a hero in the making!" "Elders, just gather your forces and prepare for the grand mission of invading the Northern Plains and annihilating the Wang family. I will go and retrieve the head of the Wang family head." After saying this, Ye Fan departed alone for the Demon Emperor Palace.

"Damn it, my battle blood is boiling too! It's finally my turn to shine this time, I'll be there to slaughter them in the Northern Plains too. But first, I need to go with little Ye to the Demon Emperor Palace and kill someone!" Li Tian yelled excitedly.
