The further they went, the more shocking the consequences of the infighting within the Zhanghuang clan became. Various corpses of the Zhanghuang clan appeared along the way, including the bodies of powerful beings. The army even discovered the corpses of two level 7 powerful beings, which they hurriedly presented to Lady Lian.
The Zhanghuang tribe has done a pretty good job with its internal infrastructure. The roads between cities are paved with asphalt, unlike the area outside Nanhe City, which is all gravel roads.
The roadside wasn't just barren wasteland; instead, neat villages with houses appeared every so often, and gas stations and service areas could be seen from time to time. However, wherever the Yi tribe's army passed, traces of fierce battles could be seen in every building.
Even in most of the villages the army passed through, Wang Yao discovered instances of Zhanghuang people being tortured and killed. Dozens or even hundreds of Zhanghuang people were bound, some disemboweled, others decapitated or dismembered. It was clear that this was not the result of battle, but rather as if they had been subjected to cruel torture.
At a gas station, Wang Yao saw a long, thin corpse that had clearly been caught while fleeing and had been chopped into mincemeat. Only by observing the long, thin trail of the minced meat could Wang Yao determine that it must have been a mud-type creature.
"What's going on? What on earth is going on?" Tongxuan, who was in the distance, was also shocked by what he saw. He forgot to try to persuade Lady Lian and just muttered to himself.
"Hmph, wasn't your Zhang Huang clan ambitious enough to unify the Holy Domain? This is what will happen to your Zhang Huang clan! The Holy Domain has always been a place where two tigers cannot share one mountain. Your Zhang Huang clan actually merged with more than a hundred races, and now you've suffered a backlash. What's so strange about that?" Lady Lian said coldly.
"Mother, it seems we really might be able to wipe out Zhang Huang this time!" Xiao Juan whispered excitedly to Lady Lian.
"Let's see," Lady Lian snorted.
Because of the struggle with Xie Zhong for Nanhe City, the Yi Clan army had long lost track of the Zhang Huang defeated army. Although there were many corpses of the Zhang Huang Clan along the way, the Zhang Huang Clan was, after all, the largest clan in Dongchuan, and its strength should not be underestimated.
Without witnessing the mass demise of powerful figures from the Zhanghuang clan, Lady Lian dared not presume to declare that the Zhanghuang clan could be wiped out. Moreover, Tongxuan's persuasion had some effect, and Lady Lian began to feel a growing sense of unease.
"Welcome to Zhanghuang Granary, the fertile land of Sanshui, the rich and beautiful Haochuan." The army had been traveling for more than a day, and at dawn, a gate tower with a similar grandeur to Nanhe City, spanning the highway, announced that Haochuan City had arrived.
The area below the gate tower was packed with cars, making it impossible to see clearly. Wang Yao, standing on Lady Lian's shoulder, could see that a large number of Zhang Huang clansmen were fleeing south by car and had encountered a major traffic jam near Haochuan City, where they were all stuck.
The Zhanghuang people who were on the bus are long gone, leaving only rows of cars parked there, stretching a long way along the road.
Looking into the distance, the entire city of Haochuan was deserted and quiet, except for the streets and alleys filled with cars. It was no different from what they had seen along the way. It seemed that the Zhang Huang clan here had also been killed or fled after the great chaos.
Without Lady Lian's command, the Yi tribe's army surged into Haochuan City like a tidal wave, overwhelming the cars. Just as they reached the city center, a sudden "boom" was heard, followed by explosions and gunfire. From the city center to below the gate tower, a series of cars exploded, flames shooting straight into the sky.
This was a premeditated ambush. The Yi Clan army that rushed into Haochuan City suffered heavy casualties in an instant. At the same time, dozens of powerful Zhang Huang Clan members seemed to suddenly emerge from the ground and rose into the sky to confront the powerful Yi Clan members from afar.
“Madam Lian, now that you’ve come to Haochuan City, you might as well call it a day. My Huang Clan is willing to cede Nanhe City to you, and we can call it a day. What do you think, Madam?” It was the Second Elder of the Zhang Huang Clan who spoke.
"Second Elder, what happened in the clan? Where is Commander Lang? How come... why did our clan change its name?" Suddenly encountering a large-scale ambush, Madam Lian hurriedly ordered Xiao Juan to halt the advance. Before she could answer the Second Elder, the Great Immortal Tongxuan couldn't help but ask first.
"Haha, Elder, you've come at the right time! Our clan has been renamed the Yellow Clan. Zhang Zhong and all those inferior beings have been expelled from our clan. As for Commander Lang, he has also abdicated. The current clan leader of the Yellow Clan is Commander Lang's youngest son, Lang Ren. Elder, come and greet the new clan leader!"
The Second Elder was not surprised to see Tongxuan and smiled seriously.
"How is that possible? Commander Lang is in his prime, how could he abdicate? Moreover, the Zhang and Huang families are inseparable, how could the Zhang clan be inferior? ... Which other clans within the clan have been expelled by you?" Tong Xuan's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly asked.
"That old thing is senile and confused. He is the clan leader, but he is going against the tide and deliberately suppressing the yellow race. Times have changed. The inferior races that have been conquered by our yellow race can only become slaves of the yellow race. They are not qualified to become a member of the yellow race and be protected by us. The Grand Elder is not of our race, so we don't need to interfere."
A young man with a gloomy face standing next to the Second Elder spoke coldly. Wang Yao glanced at him and recognized him as the one who had seen him off at the airport and stood behind the Second Elder.
"Young Master Duoren, you are mistaken. There are 120 races of the Zhanghuang clan, and each one is indispensable. The Huang race excels in group warfare, the Zhang race has strong defense, the Mang race is not weak individually, the Bin race and the Fen race are the best choices for developing the tertiary industry, and even the Ni race cannot do without them for land reclamation..."
"What you're doing will greatly weaken the strength of my Zhanghuang clan!" Tongxuan shouted anxiously.
"Elder, you are wrong! Our yellow race has overcome many hardships in its early years, and now it stands tall on this Eastern Continent. If we hadn't defeated those inferior races, why would they have willingly submitted to us?"
