"Lei Qing actually became the disciple of a charlatan?" This news was so shocking that the high priest of the Qingfeng tribe was shocked when he received the news.
"Yes, the latest news is that Lei Qing has followed the Haifan tribe's caravan to the Great Forest."
The High Priest of the Qingfeng Tribe fell silent. Everyone has a different personality and their pursuits cannot be the same. The High Priest of the Qingfeng Tribe also cultivates the spirit, but his lifelong ideal is to revitalize the Qingfeng Tribe. This is the High Priest's duty.
Lei Qing felt that his mission as the high priest of the Qingfeng tribe had come to an end. With Lei Ting taking over, his cultivation would sooner or later be stronger than his own. So he gave up the Leishen tribe and went to pursue his own personal ideals.
Could it be that Lei Qing was trusting his taciturn disciple? Lei Ting could be considered to have been brought up by Lei Qing. No matter how well he hid Lei Ting's personality, it could not be hidden from Lei Qing.
In reality, the usually taciturn Lei Ting was actually quite strong-willed and ambitious, unwilling to be underdogs. Lei Qing even suspected that if he continued to hold the position of High Priest of the Thunder God Tribe, he might one day be killed by his own disciple, Lei Ting.
Isn't that strange? Primitive people had no moral or ethical standards; the only rule was that the strong were respected. If a tribal leader wasn't effective, he could be replaced or even killed at any time. Isn't that how Hai, the chief of the Hai tribe, came to power?
No one cares if the weak die. This is the primitive world.
Lei Qing felt very lucky that he had found Ma Yue who could guide him, and that he had received real guidance from Ma Yue, which helped him solve the spiritual cultivation problem that had been puzzling him.
Lei Qing, who has hope in life again, is full of energy.
The Thunder God Tribe received the news that Lei Qing had completely joined the Haifan Tribe, and Lei Ting was officially crowned as the High Priest of the Thunder God Tribe. Soon, he revealed a strong and domineering temperament.
He even personally led his troops to attack the nearby Qinghe tribe. In the brutal attack, the Leishen tribe suffered heavy casualties, but in the end, they annexed the Qinghe tribe with a population of 2,000 in one fell swoop.
Although this battle showed the Thunder God Tribe as a super tribe, looted a lot of food and resources, and created a large number of new slaves... However, the Thunder God Tribe's chief Lei Bao did not take it seriously, as the loss of his own men was huge.
To compensate for the loss of their own able-bodied men, they would need time to gradually naturalize them from the captured slaves. Is it worth it?
However, the newly appointed High Priest, Lei Ting, had changed his previous taciturn image and was extremely strong, forcing Lei Bao to obey his orders. This was due to the special status of the High Priest in this area within the tribe. Their sacrifices were blessed by the gods, and they were able to cultivate the gods. How could he compare to them?
This is not the end yet. Lei Ting also sent a message to many small tribes around, saying that if they do not submit to the Thunder God Tribe, he will destroy them.
What's the point? If they've surrendered, shouldn't they be kept alive? With so many people, will there be enough food? Lei Bao was frustrated. The new high priest, Lei Ting, wouldn't listen to his advice and insisted on doing things his way.
The surrounding tribes, both large and small, surrendered immediately if they knew better, and fled if they didn't. "I can't afford to offend you, but I can afford to avoid you. This area is so vast, can't I just be next to your Thunder God Tribe?"
For a time, the Thunder God Tribe was extremely powerful, and its population exceeded 10,000.
"What is the Thunder God Tribe going to do?" The Qingfeng Tribe felt a sense of crisis. Isn't the newly appointed high priest of the Thunder God Tribe, Lei Ting, too aggressive?
The Thunder God Tribe's conquest was too fast. Before the aftermath of the High Priest Lei Qing's allegiance to the Haifan Tribe had dissipated, the Thunder God Tribe had already conquered many large and small tribes and expanded to 10,000 people.
"High Priest, the chief of the Ice Eye Tribe is here. He wants to form an alliance with us to deal with the Thunder God Tribe together." Fengshan, the current chief of the Qingfeng Tribe, came in a hurry.
"So nervous?" The high priest suddenly felt a sense of urgency. If the Thunder God Tribe continued its offensive, who would they attack? Either the Ice Eye Tribe or their own Qingfeng Tribe.
"High Priest, according to our spies, it seems that the Thunder God Tribe has no intention of quieting down and is still reorganizing its troops and horses." The great chief Feng Shandu looked incredulous.
"Don't they need to eat?" The high priest was so angry. With tens of thousands of people, food is the biggest enemy. What's the point of fighting endlessly?
"They stole so much food from the Qinghe tribe. I guess they can hold out for a while."
Do things you steal last? Food lasts a while, so you can grab more? What kind of logic is that?
"Alliance! We must form an alliance. The Thunder God Tribe has gone crazy!"
…
The Haifan tribe is a bit far from the core area of the Leishen tribe, and Ma Yue received the news relatively late.
"So manic?" Ma Yue was also surprised when he got the news. When he talked with Lei Qing, he did not talk about her little disciple Lei Ting. Ma Yue naturally did not know Lei Ting's personality.
Why are you blindly expanding like this? Could it be that Lei Ting also knows how to cultivate the power of faith like the "Telekinesis Chapter"? There are already tens of thousands of people. Even if you can absorb the power of faith, your cultivation level is only at the level of a late-stage warrior. Aren't you afraid of dying of starvation?
I originally thought that I had 900 able-bodied men and 300 soldiers, which was pretty impressive. At least, I could protect myself. But now, the frenzied Thunder God Tribe has over 10,000 men. Who knows how many able-bodied men there are?
If all the old people and children really rushed forward and attacked indiscriminately, the Haifan tribe might not be able to withstand it.
In the history books of my past life, wasn't that what the peasant army of a certain dynasty did? The old, weak, and cannon fodder charged first, wasting the defenders' arrows, physical strength, and energy...
In this primitive world where there is no respect for the elderly and love for the young, perhaps there will be such an indiscriminate cannon fodder charge.
"Continue to send out scouts and keep a close eye on the Thunder God Tribe's movements..." Let's see what the situation is like. If the Thunder God Tribe really wants to go all out to attack the Haifan Tribe, Ma Yue will have no choice but to bite the bullet. Otherwise, what will become of slavery? That's a life worse than death.
Because the Thunder God Tribe was too far away, Ma Yue tried to keep up with the latest developments as much as possible. This time, he sent out about fifty long-range reconnaissance deer cavalry.
"Truce?" Finally, the first group of scouts returned to report. The Haifan Tribe was far away, so the last news they received was out of date. The so-called latest news was roughly half a month old.
"Why?" Ma Yue was still puzzled. In war, there must be a purpose, right?
"We've gotten the news. Many women and children captured by the Thunder God Tribe were sent to the big forest in the south. It was said that they were sold to the tribes in the forest in exchange for salt and...spiritual stones!" This was the information given by the fourth group of scouts who returned.
Leaving the conquered slaves, men, women, and children behind, to be sold to the forest tribe? Women and children? Ma Yue had done this before, so could the salt-producing tribe in the forest also have this strategy?
Women and children are also part of the population. Even the frailest women can work. At least, Ma Yue believes they are all part of the labor force. Children, when they grow up, will also be the future of the tribe.
So, the Thunder God Tribe is not planning for a future?
