The rumor was so powerful that even Ma Yue was shocked. In just three or four days, the front line of the Thunder God Tribe was like an avalanche, with defeats and escapes everywhere.
The many small tribes that had been defeated and attached to Thunder God City never returned to Thunder God City. Speaking of which, most of the Thunder God tribe's tribesmen were conquered and assimilated. The rumor that the old Taoist priest of their own tribe was actually a 'vampire'-like spiritual cultivator was even more frightening to those who were already afraid of ghosts and gods.
Don't run? Are you waiting to be sucked alive?
Some of the newly conquered tribesmen from the western jungle began to flee to their homeland in the west; some of the tribesmen who had originally been conquered and surrendered by the Thunder God Tribe in this area began to flee to the warmer areas in the east...
In just three to five days, the Thunder God Tribe, which had tens of thousands of people, was reduced to only the isolated Thunder God City, with a population of less than four thousand, more than half of whom had fled.
The situation was reversed so drastically that the Qingfeng tribe was overjoyed. In order to wipe out the enemy completely, the high priest simply gathered almost all the able-bodied men and deputy soldiers in the tribe (he learned the deputy soldier policy from the Hai tribe) and surrounded Leishen City.
The high priest was in a good mood. In that case, after we destroy your Thunder God tribe, our Qingfeng tribe will migrate.
"High Priest, the walls of Thunder God City are very high and difficult to attack." Feng Shan was unwilling to attack by force, as the attackers would surely suffer heavy losses.
"If we don't take this opportunity to completely wipe out the Thunder God Tribe, my Qingfeng Tribe will never have peace. We must kill their spiritual cultivators at all costs." The high priest said gritting his teeth.
"High Priest, I'm afraid this won't work." Feng Shan said hesitantly.
"What's wrong?"
"If we really do that, I'm afraid many of our men will run away."
"What do you mean?"
"High Priest, don't forget what the rumors say. With so many people dead, everyone will be wary. Perhaps, they will suspect that you are also a bloody and evil cultivator."
Damn it! The high priest was stunned. Is there such a thing?
"High Priest, the rumor must have been spread deliberately by humans. It's not us, it's probably from the east. If they can target the Thunder God Tribe in this way, maybe they will target our Qingfeng Tribe in the same way next. So, High Priest, we can't easily leave room for gossip." Fengshan's considerations were meticulous.
The Qingfeng tribe and the Hai tribe are not friendly tribes, and they have had many frictions in the past.
"Are we just going to give up halfway?" The high priest was unwilling to accept this.
"High Priest, since such rumors have been spread over there, it is obvious that they are also afraid of the evil cultivators with blood and blood, and are willing to help us. Perhaps, there is a way to attack the city over there?" Fengshan said.
"Fengshan, I understand what you mean. But the Hai tribe is too cruel. They asked for three thousand deer. How can we afford it?" They are not good people.
"Hey... aren't we all doing this for profit?" Feng Shan said in a long voice.
…
"The charlatan, the high priest of the Qingfeng tribe is here again."
"Come on if you want." Ma Yue didn't look interested at all.
"Charlatan, this time, I guess the high priest of the Qingfeng tribe is ready to pay some price, hehe!" said Gray Wolf with a smile.
"Gray Wolf, do you think I care about the 3,000 deer of the Qingfeng tribe?"
"Charlatan, do you mean that we should not participate?" asked the third priest.
"What's the point of participating? The Thunder God Tribe is already in disrepute, and there's not much potential for future development. Wouldn't it be better to keep it to annoy the Qingfeng Tribe?" Ma Yue said, "You think the Qingfeng Tribe is so good? Once they monopolize the core area, their ambitions will only grow."
"That's true. There is some value in keeping the weak Thunder God Tribe. For the time being, our Sea Tribe will not expand. There is only one tribe in the core area, which is indeed not suitable." The third priest nodded.
"As long as the Thunder God Tribe isn't completely wiped out and the Qingfeng Tribe doesn't have that worry, they won't look towards our Warm Zone." Gray Wolf also understood that as the leader of a super-large tribe, it would be unacceptable to be blindly belligerent without a sense of the overall situation. People always need to improve.
"That's it, you guys go back and take care of it."
The high priest of the Qingfeng tribe was very depressed. This time, he didn't even get to see the charlatan.
"This guy is so stingy. We helped the Qingfeng tribe so much, and he only gave us such a small amount of spirit stones? Damn it!" Gray Wolf had an extremely bad impression of the high priest of the Qingfeng tribe.
"That's good. I thought she would be stingy, haha!" The third priest was quite open-minded.
…
The Qingfeng tribe launched a large-scale attack on Leishen City, suffered heavy casualties, and eventually gave up the idea of taking Leishen City.
The Qingfeng tribe's army had withdrawn, leaving Thunder God City in a state of desolation. The rumored figure, the old Grand Tutor Lei Feng, had vanished, presumably having escaped on his own.
The Thunder God Tribe has no future and its value is completely gone. Lei Feng, whose main purpose is cultivation, no longer has any attachment to the Thunder God Tribe.
Lei Ting looked at the roughly 3,000 men and women left in Thundergod City. The great Thundergod Tribe had fallen like this. In this situation, even if he had a miracle, how much cohesion would he still have?
The rumors about the evil and vicious cultivators were so terrible that the tribesmen were all very afraid. If the gates of Thunder God City had not been closed, more people would have run away.
"Don't panic, everyone. Lei Feng, the evil cultivator with blood and blood, has already escaped. Our Thunder God Tribe will no longer start a war without reason. Everyone should just focus on farming in the future..." As the high priest of the Thunder God Tribe, Lei Ting still has some prestige.
In addition, this guy took the initiative to acknowledge the existence of Lei Feng, the evil cultivator with blood and energy. As long as this evil cultivator with blood and energy leaves, will the Thunder God Tribe be safe in the future?
People all have a herd mentality. After all, there are three thousand people gathered together. Can everyone huddle together for warmth?
With the joint efforts of Thunder and Thunderstorm, a food reserve warehouse was even opened, and the morale of the Thunder God tribe was gradually stabilized.
Most of the tribesmen who were able to stay in Leishen City in the end were originally the elders of the Leishen tribe, and only a few were conquered and naturalized. Such a population ratio is beneficial to the stability of the Leishen tribe.
Three thousand people, is that too few?
These troops alone are a real nuisance to the Qingfeng Tribe. Will you still attack Thundergod City in the future? It won't be easy, and the losses will be heavy. Perhaps rumors of evil cultivators with a bloody spirit will be pinned on the cultivators of your Qingfeng Tribe.
To put it bluntly, the Qingfeng Tribe lacked the kind of overwhelming power. A tribe with a population of 10,000, even if all its regular and auxiliary soldiers were combined, how many would they actually have? If the Qingfeng Tribe possessed the formidable strength of the combined forces of the three major tribes of Ghost City, even with 10,000 men, Thunder God City would have been crushed long ago.
As a result, the core area maintained a very awkward balance. There were not many people left in the Thunder God Tribe, and the Qingfeng Tribe could not do anything to the Thunder God Tribe.
The Thunder God Tribe seems to have truly turned over a new leaf. Besides farming, they don't have much energy left to invade anymore, right? Does this qualify as being half-dead?
