Chapter 108: Chi You Launches an Army, Xuanyuan Retreats
After Xuanyuan formed the first army of the human race, he began his journey to unify the human race. Xuanyuan first used his powerful military force to integrate the entire northern tribes. Then, with the help of Xuandu and Guangchengzi, he made the western tribes, led by the Fenggun tribe, submit to him. Afterward, he led the northern and western tribes to launch an offensive against Yuwang, who had declared himself the Yan Emperor. Xuanyuan won ten battles in a row, defeating Yuwang decisively. Forced into a desperate situation, Yuwang took the initiative to ask the Jiuli tribe for help.
East, Jiuli tribe
Upon receiving Yu Wang's plea for help, Chi You immediately sought out Jin Peng to discuss the matter.
"Teacher, Yu Wang of the Lieshan tribe is besieged by Xuanyuan in the tribe's territory and is facing a desperate situation. He has sent someone to ask me for help. Do you think I should send troops?" Chi You asked Jin Peng.
"Chi You, do you think we should send troops?" Jin Peng did not answer Chi You, but instead asked Chi You what he thought.
Chi You thought for a moment and said, "Master, I believe this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. When Xuanyuan was integrating the northern and western tribes, I held back because I was worried that rashly intervening would be met with resistance from the northern, western, and southern tribes. After all, our eastern tribes are all human tribes. But now Yu Wang has taken the initiative to ask for help. Although Shennong Dihuang has gone to the human holy temple, the Lieshan tribe is still the current power center of the human race. If we can save Yu Wang, we can gain the support of Shennong Dihuang. Therefore, I think we should send troops."
The Human Witch Tribe has always been in a very awkward position within the human race. The human race needs to rely on the Human Witch Tribe's fighting power to deal with other races. However, because the Human Witch Tribe's bloodline is not pure enough, it has long been difficult for them to be accepted by the core mainstream of the human race. Therefore, when Xuanyuan set out to unify the human race, Chiyou remained inactive, fearing that all the orthodox human tribes would unite to resist him.
In fact, Chi You was very anxious as he watched Xuan Yuan's strength grow stronger day by day. After all, the throne of Taihuang required a direct battle between himself and Xuan Yuan to be decided. If Xuan Yuan were to control the north, west, and south, his strength would far surpass that of the Jiuli tribe. At that time, Chi You really had no confidence that he could defeat Xuan Yuan.
"Chi You, I am very pleased that you think this way." Jin Peng was very satisfied with Chi You's words. Because the human-shaman tribe was not as good as the pure human race in terms of comprehension, the human-shaman tribe had never produced a true sage or wise man. Jin Peng had put in a lot of effort when teaching Chi You.
"Master, do you also agree to your disciple sending troops?" Upon hearing Jinpeng say this, Chiyou understood that Jinpeng agreed with his idea, and was therefore very happy.
"We definitely have to send troops!" Jin Peng nodded and said, "We can't let Xuanyuan continue to grow stronger. You and Shennong Dihuang are considered fellow disciples. Now Xuanyuan has easily taken over the western tribes by taking advantage of our fellow disciples. We absolutely cannot let Xuanyuan invade the southern tribes. This is the only ally you can win over. However, Xuanmen will definitely think of this and will definitely prepare many backup plans for you. So we can't sit idly by and wait for death. You should lead the Jiuli tribe to rescue the Lieshan tribe first, and I will go and find some help for you."
There are two humans with the destiny of the Tai Emperor, but there can only be one Tai Emperor's throne. Therefore, Chi You and Xuan Yuan cannot coexist. The Xuanmen has invested so much in Xuan Yuan, and they will never sit idly by and watch him fail. Perhaps a large number of Xuanmen disciples have already filled Xuan Yuan's army, just waiting for Chi You to walk into their trap. Similarly, the Xuan Chu lineage has gone to great lengths to support Chi You, and they will never allow him to fail. This battle is inevitable. In order to deal with the Xuanmen disciples, Jin Peng must find some helpers.
"That's excellent, thank you for your trouble, teacher." Hearing that Jinpeng was going to find him helpers, Chiyou became even more confident about the battle.
"There's no need for that. You are the hope of my Xuan Chu lineage, and we will do everything in our power to help you ascend to the throne," Jin Peng said.
In the territory of the Lieshan tribe, Xuanyuan's army had already surrounded them. The people of the Lieshan tribe could only fight to the death. Meanwhile, the southern army that Yuwang had gathered had long been scattered by Xuanyuan. Seeing that Yuwang was about to be defeated, the southern tribes chose to watch from the sidelines to avoid getting too involved with Yuwang and being purged by Xuanyuan in the future. After all, Xuanyuan's methods in the conquest of unifying the human race were very ruthless.
"Emperor Yan, will the Jiuli tribe really come to our rescue? If we wait any longer, our people will not be able to hold on." The elder of the Lieshan tribe said to Yuwang with a tired expression. During this period, the Xuanyuan army's offensive was very fierce. Fortunately, when Shennong was in power, he built an exceptionally strong city for the Lieshan tribe, which allowed the Lieshan tribe to hold on under the fierce offensive of the Xuanyuan army.
"Those heartless bastards! When my father was in power, he treated them with the utmost kindness. Now that my Lieshan tribe is in danger, they actually sit idly by and do nothing! How despicable!" Yu Wang said through gritted teeth. In Yu Wang's view, his father Shennong had been very kind to the human race, especially to the southern tribes, when he was in power. But in the end, when he was besieged by Xuanyuan's army, not a single tribe was willing to come to his rescue.
"Reporting to Emperor Yan, the North Gate is about to collapse!" At this moment, a guard stumbled in and said in a panic.
"What!" Yu Wang was shocked. He hadn't expected that even after holding on for so long, he still couldn't hold on.
"Emperor Yan, what should we do?"
Yu Wang's face was resolute as he said, "I, Yu Wang, a descendant of the Earth Emperor, will never live a life of cowardice. Since that brat Xuanyuan doesn't want us to live, then let's fight him to the death! Send down the order to gather all our clansmen, and we'll go out and fight Xuanyuan to the death!"
"It's a fight to the death!"
Outside the city, Xuanyuan looked at the city on the verge of falling and said to Guangchengzi beside him with a smug look, "Teacher, the Lieshan tribe is finally about to be taken down."
"Not bad!" Guang Chengzi nodded with a smile and said, "Yu Wang is ignorant of destiny and dares to oppose you, Xuan Yuan. He is simply overestimating himself. Well, after destroying the Lieshan tribe, we can also weaken the power of the Xuan Chu lineage among the human race. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone."
Inside the city, after gathering the remaining members of his clan, Yu Wang rushed out of the north gate and engaged in fierce battle with Xuan Yuan's army. Unfortunately, the two sides were far apart in strength, and even though Yu Wang fought with all his might, he could only hold on desperately.
"Although Yu Wang is out of touch with the times, his backbone has not disgraced Shennong. Pass down the order that Yu Wang must be captured alive, and his life must not be taken." Xuanyuan sighed as he looked at Yu Wang, who was fighting a bloody battle. He did not want to really break ties with Shennong by keeping Yu Wang, since he would still need to get along with Shennong when he went to the Human Race Temple in the future.
Just as the Lieshan tribe was about to be defeated, Chi You led the Jiuli tribe to attack!
"Hahaha, Yuwang, don't panic, Chiyou is here!" Before he was seen, his voice was heard, and Chiyou's loud voice echoed throughout the entire battlefield.
Although Xuanyuan's army was well-trained, it was still no match for the Renwu tribe. With the support of the Jiuli tribe, the Lieshan tribe launched a counterattack.
Seeing that they were about to be defeated by the Jiuli tribe, Guang Chengzi hurriedly said to Xuanyuan, "Xuanyuan, the Jiuli tribe is extremely powerful. Our army has been fighting for a long time and is exhausted. It is not advisable to confront them head-on. We should retreat for the time being and wait for an opportunity."
Although Guang Chengzi was strong enough to suppress Chi You, Yuan Shi had given instructions that if the Xuan Chu lineage did not intervene, he should never interfere in the internal struggles of the human race, lest the Xuan Chu lineage find a handle against him. Therefore, Guang Chengzi could only watch helplessly as Chi You displayed his power.
"Retreat!" Xuanyuan gritted his teeth in hatred as he watched Chi You slaughtering everyone below. He was so close to completely conquering the Lieshan tribe. But with the arrival of the Jiuli tribe, everything was in vain.
At Xuanyuan's command, the army of the Youxiong tribe slowly retreated. Chiyou, seizing the opportunity, did not let up and led the Jiuli tribe in pursuit all the way until they drove Xuanyuan out of the south.
