Chapter 1552 – Unruly

The Spring Valley was actually referring to magma. It collected in the shape of a circle and was bubbling violently.

Golden Crow Tribe members lived in it and were Fire Spiritual Beasts. This environment for them was like the ocean breeze to us.

Sss –

Numerous canopies were set up outside the Spring Valley today. They were not physical canopies, but were made up of an invisible force.

It was not that the barbarians wanted to do anything in the Golden Crow Tribe but it was because the sea of flames was intense. The barbarians would have to use energy to maintain their composure amidst this heat if not for the canopies.

The fiery egg appeared in everyone’s vision. Numerous golden crows lay on the ground and allowed the magma to cover their bodies. They were expressing their awe and subservient attitude.

As the barbarians assessed the fiery egg that was half-buried in the magma, they were surprised by the aura they felt.

It was extremely strong!

It wasn’t only that. It gave them a feeling that the being inside it was a predator at the top of the food chain.

No wonder the Golden Crow Tribe made such a big event out of this and invited everyone to observe. They had really found a treasure!

When the Golden Crow Totem had been killed by the Desolate men, everyone thought they would fall. But no one expected such a twist.

There must be something going on.

The barbarians stared intently at the fiery egg, willing it to tell them the secret.

How did the Golden Crow Tribe do it?

Tribe Leader Cutuo smiled and said slowly, “Everyone, you are currently seeing our tribe’s new totem. It will break out of its shell very soon.”

Looking at everyone, he released an intense pressure amidst the silence, “I believe you all know the rules and I won’t have to say them. Please observe in silence.”

Boom boom –

As soon as he spoke, an intense aura burst through the valley and the magma started to bubble violently, creating a roaring sound.

All the barbarian cultivators seemed to be stunned. As their hearts stilled, they could not help but chuckle bitterly. They felt that this Cutuo was being extremely pretentious. The Spring Valley was the Golden Crow Tribe’s heavenly formation and they could release enormous energy with just a thought.

Even if someone wanted to create trouble, they would not dare to do it here. Otherwise they would be really asking for death.

It was precisely because of this that the Golden Crow Tribe dared to announce their totem’s arrival to the world rather than keeping it a secret.

The few ‘ice lumps’ from the Ice Carp Tribe looked gloomy. They were looking at the flame with jealousy.

Although the barbarians and the Desolate people were each other’s biggest enemies, there was not complete unity within the barbarians either.

There was internal strife and infighting as well. Since ancient times, the Golden Crow Tribe and Ice Carp Tribe had been known to be big enemies.

When one side was strong, they were bound to try and suppress others. If not for the Holy Land restrictions, they would have killed each other.

Now, they were evenly matched, and hence their relationship was peaceful.

But with the Golden Crow Tribe’s new totem, their powers would definitely increase and this period of ‘peace’ would soon end.

As they thought of this, the eyes of the ‘ice lumps’ from the Ice Carp Tribe immediately hardened.

The hesitation they had felt was completely erased.

They could reject working with the Desolate Area people, but they had to do something for the future of their tribe!

Qin Yu frowned as he turned to look to the side.

The sinister aura was especially obvious in contrast with the hot magma spring.

He saw a pale face. He had seen this face before – it was the strongest barbarian from the Ice Carp Tribe.

What was he doing here?

As he thought of this, he sensed the murderous intent. Qin Yu frowned harder as he became guarded.

As if noticing what Qin Yu was thinking, Rourou silently took a step back, falling behind him.

Qin Yu turned around to look at her. Rourou stared back at him with wide eyes filled with innocence. She blinked back at him, clearly expressing that she had no desire to suffer with him.

This woman was too petty. She must be taking revenge on Qin Yu for labelling her as his wife.

Just when Qin Yu was thinking about whether to involved Prajna to help act as a shield, the barbarian from the Ice Carp Tribe had arrived.

However, things did not turn out as he had expected. He merely sneered and looked at him sinisterly…but did not do anything more. He simply brushed past.

It seemed like he was heading to the Tribe Leader of the Golden Crow Tribe. Alas, he stopped beside Cutuo and exchanged a few words.

Though they spoke softly, fragments of their conversation could be heard amidst the silence.

He heard words like ‘Desolate Area men’ and ‘enemies’.

Cutuo frowned and looked solemn as he started to argue with the barbarian from the Ice Carp Tribe. He spoke louder and became more forceful.

The other barbarians subconsciously looked at Qin Yu as they frowned slightly and became more unfriendly. The war between the Barbarian Clan and the Desolate Area had gone on for years and the animosity had been carved into their bones. It could never be erased.

When the Ice Carp Tribe expressed their displeasure, it triggered the Golden Crow Tribe’s dissatisfaction as well. What were they doing? How could a Desolate Area man be qualified to attend today’s celebration?

“Our tribe has considered all of this, and we don’t need you to worry about it!” Cutuo looked sullen as he spat out, putting an end to the argument.

He could sense the unhappy looks from the people around him and could not help but sneer internally.

A bunch of fools. Even Master Prajna, who was born from the Holy Land, has remained silent. Who are you all to speak? Your brains must be spoilt not to notice such an obvious thing!

Of course, these people probably did not even know Master Prajna’s identity.

The cultivator from the Ice Carp Tribe snorted as he turned sharply. He glared at Qin Yu, a sinister aura flooding out from him.

This made him feel slightly annoyed. Was there a need to treat me with such high levels of animosity even though we have never met? Moreover, do you think you are qualified to look at me as if we are enemies? Just wait for it. If I reveal my identity, you will be begging and crying to submit to me!

What happened to the murderous intent? I am sure that I sensed it. But why have you all not made a move?

Could it be that you are all really restricted by the Golden Crow Tribe?

The man walked closer to him. The man snorted…just that. It was exactly the same as before.

Just when the Ice Carp Tribe cultivator was about to brush past, he was suddenly thrown back as if he had been hit.

Blood spurted out from his nose and mouth and it turned into blood jades resembling water crystals. Each and every piece released coldness into the air around it.

As the man flew towards the magma spring, he glared at Qin Yu. His eyes were full of menace. His expression seemed to say, I cannot believe that you dare to hit me in front of everyone.

Qin Yu was speechless.

He had never expected that the man would do this.

Coarse, it was so coarse.

Any normal person would be able to see that Qin Yu would never make a move against the Ice Carp Tribe in a situation like today.

But they had apparently done this!

Rough and arrogant. They did not care about reputations and merely looked at results.

The Ice Carp Tribe had determined that this was a situation that would not require scrutiny.

All the people present today were barbarians and they were definitely biased.

No one would side with the Desolate Area men who had infiltrated their world.

So Qin Yu was bound to be implicated.

Pitter patter –

It was the blood jade crystals that had been spat out from the Ice Carp barbarian. They fell into the boiling magma pit.

Seeming to be ‘wounded’, he spat out fresh blood that contained his own life essence. It possessed an extreme cold power.

As soon as it fell into the magma, the temperature dropped drastically and the magma spring turned black and coagulated. An ice layer formed over it.

When the Ice Carp barbarian had been thrown back, he had spat out blood like it was free. Hence, it caused blood jade crystals to rain down.

Though the quantity was not a lot, the results were astounding!

The parts of the magma spring that had been affected quickly turned into ice. In an instant, it disrupted the hot energy flow.

The fiery egg that was buried in the magma vibrated slightly. The light rays that were emitted from the veins seemed to flicker.

It was obvious that because the Ice Carp man had been ‘attacked’ by the Desolate Area man, his blood turned into ice and fell into the magma spring. This then caused a huge disturbance to the last part of the totem’s birth.

Cutuo was furious as he paled. His eyes grew sinister as he watched the Ice Carp barbarian get thrown back into the depths of the magma spring.

If he had not known the true identity of General Jinwu, he would have had to reconsider this.

But since he knew the identity of General Jinwu, he was sure that the Ice Carp Tribe was creating trouble in order to prevent the new Golden Crow Totem from being born!

A heinous sin. Simply unforgivable!

Without hesitating, Cutuo lifted a finger and the heat in the magma spring rose exponentially.

Boom –

The red magma started to boil violently and an intense destructive aura was released from it.

A red column, so hot that it looked black, surged into the sky. Like a giant flame extending its hand, it reached out to the Ice Carp barbarian.

There were shouts as numerous barbarians were shocked. They never thought that the Golden Crow Tribe would aim to kill.

However, they could understand as it was their totem in the magma.

But if the Ice Carp barbarian was killed now, it would cause a huge clash.

Golden Crow and Ice Carp were two huge tribes. Their years of animosity would explode and would give rise to a cruel battle!

And this was all because of General Jinwu. The glares of the barbarians turned even colder.

Qin Yu was calm. When the Ice Carp barbarian had ‘coarsely’ set him up, he knew that this issue would not pass easily.

But he was not panicking.

Golden Crow Tribe Cutuo knew his ‘identity’ and would never allow anyone to hurt him.

Moreover, there was Master Prajna, who had remained silent. If he announced Qin Yu’s identity, no barbarians would dare to say anything.

If worse came to worse, there was still Rourou. If it came to it, they would be the ones to suffer.

But as the Barbarian King, hopefully this would not happen.

The cultivators from the human side must be frantically searching for him.

If he announced his identity, Qin Yu would suffer a miserable plight.

How should he choose between sacrificing himself or others? Tsk, was there even a need to choose? Qin Yu was not a saint!

As the flame’s hand that was reaching out to the Ice Carp barbarian was about to mold this coarse and sinister ‘ice lump’ into ‘powder’, something strange happened.

Just as the flame’s hand was about to land on the Ice Carp barbarian, it passed through it as if the man was an illusion.

Pak –

The fire imprint on the Ice Carp barbarian was destroyed.

“Fire Talisman!”

Cutuo growled angrily.

Behind him, there was a young man and his face paled. His eyes filled with endless fear.

The Spring Valley was in the Golden Crow’s territory and was the Heavenly Formation of the Golden Crow Tribe. There were only a few tribes that could get the Fire Talisman and enter this place.

Cutuo turned and looked at the pale-faced young man. Pain and frustration filled his eyes. Although his eldest son had always been weak and useless, he never thought that he would be stupid enough to give the Fire Talisman to the Ice Carp Tribe.

Because of this delay, the Ice Carp barbarian who had been ‘thrown’ into the magma spring had reached its deepest part.

Below him was the half-buried fiery egg.

Pfft –

He opened his mouth and spat a mouthful of fresh blood mixed with his strong life essence at the fiery egg.

Destroy the Golden Crow Tribe’s totem!
