Lady Lian's voice grew louder and louder, and Li Kui stumbled backward, eventually leaning against the elongated version of the Rat Treasure.
"Clap clap clap clap..." A series of slaps rang out, accompanied by a man's clear cheer. "Well said!"
Upon hearing the sound, the warriors of the Yi clan immediately became very nervous and gathered around Lady Lian. They then saw a figure glide out of the darkness and slowly descend from the air when it reached their vicinity.
"Madam, General Lang has come to apologize. He has been lax in managing his subordinates and incompetent in governing his household, which has led to his expulsion from the clan and caused the nobles to suffer heavy losses. Madam is right; wrongdoing must be punished. General Lang has come to plead guilty. Whether you kill him or punish him, it is entirely up to you, Madam."
As he spoke, Marshal Lang landed in front of Lady Lian.
"Commander Lang, you...you...?" When Madam Lian saw Commander Lang, she was so shocked that her voice trembled.
Seeing Lang Shuai's current state, it was hard not to feel a sense of shared sorrow. For many years, the Yi Clan and the Zhanghuang Clan had been locked in a battle of wits and courage on the Dongchuan Continent, vying for the throne of the number one clan in Dongchuan.
To be honest, Lady Lian was always outmatched by Commander Lang, whose tribe was stronger.
But now, this once-powerful and ruthless General Lang is all alone, and he has delivered himself to her doorstep. Just a short while ago, he threatened Lady Lian to become the owner of the Zhang Huang clan's Yi Jing Mine. The changes in the world are so great and so fast that they truly stir her emotions and make her unable to control herself.
Lady Lian was speechless, but her children were not. This senseless war had caused the deaths of countless powerful figures in the clan, most of whom died at the hands of the Zhang Huang clan. The warriors of the Yi clan hated the Zhang Huang clan to the bone, and now, seeing Commander Lang, their eyes turned red.
"General Lang, I'm going to kill you!"
"Commander Lang, I want to avenge my sister Xiaoshan!"
"Commander Lang, I want to avenge my sister Xiaoying!"
"Commander Lang, I want to avenge my sister Xiao Que!"
...
All around Lady Lian, countless warriors of the Yi clan rushed towards Commander Lang like moths to a flame. Commander Lang watched this scene, sighed softly, and slowly closed his eyes.
"Enough, all of you stop!" Madam Lian sighed and whispered, but she was a beat too late. By this time, countless attacks had already landed on Commander Lang. Although he was of high cultivation and stood there without falling, green blood was slowly flowing from the corner of his lips.
The attacks from the B clan warriors were too numerous, and Lang Shuai was so eager to die that he didn't defend himself at all, so he was injured in the blink of an eye.
Although Lady Lian's voice was not loud, she had extremely high prestige in the tribe. When all the warriors of the Yi tribe heard Lady Lian speak, whether they were attacking or preparing to attack, they all froze on the spot, barely stopping their actions, and turned to look at her in confusion.
"Commander Lang, you...you really came here seeking death?" Lady Lian ignored the indignant Yi Clan warrior beside her and asked Commander Lang in a complicated tone.
"I'm already a stray dog. What else can I do but die?" Lang Shuai replied with a bitter smile.
Lang Shuai is right. The only fate of a clan leader who is expelled from the demon realm is death. They are not tolerated by their own clan, and other clans will kill them as soon as possible. In the end, they can hardly escape death. The only difference is whether they die sooner or later.
"Commander Lang! It's too early to talk about death now, you haven't reached the point of despair yet! Madam Lian, could you please give this old man some face and spare Commander Lang's life? In the future, I will be at your beck and call!" Just then, another voice rang out in the darkness.
"Tongxuan?" Almost simultaneously, Lady Lian, Commander Lang, and Wang Yao exclaimed in surprise. Tongxuan slowly appeared in the darkness riding a donkey, followed by a fat monk.
"Commander Lang, don't lose heart, there's still room for maneuver!" Tongxuan was no longer afraid of the Yi Clan warriors suddenly attacking. He swayed, put away his donkey, and jumped down to Commander Lang's side, calling out to him.
"Lady Lian, please spare Commander Lang! I swear to heaven, Commander Lang truly had no intention of waging war against the Yi tribe. It was all the work of Tang Jin and Lang Ren, those yellow-skinned traitors in the tribe, who were instigated by other tribes and set up this trap." Tong Xuan turned to Lady Lian and pleaded again.
"Elder, please stop. Commander Lang has failed your trust. Madam Lian was right before. Since Commander Lang is the patriarch of the Zhanghuang Clan, he must bear the consequences of the crimes committed by the Zhanghuang Clan. Even if the Zhanghuang Clan no longer exists, Commander Lang still has to give Madam Lian and the Yi Clan an explanation."
Lang Shuai looked sadly at Tong Xuandao.
"Oh dear, Commander Lang, look who he is! I told you there's always room for maneuver, so don't lose heart or get stuck in a rut!" Tongxuan stamped his feet anxiously, pointing to the monk suspended in mid-air behind him as he advised Commander Lang.
"Master Pudu?" Only then did Lang Shuai notice the person who came with Tongxuan. He looked up and saw the monk, and was taken aback.
“Amitabha, I was entrusted by Tongxuan to oversee the construction of Lingguang Temple. Suddenly I heard that there was great chaos in the clan. I have been observing in secret these days. Now there are 128 kinds of Zhang and Huang. The Huang clan has only declared 68 kinds, including Huang, Jian, Mang, and Wen, as the main race, and the other 60 kinds as slave races.”
"Due to the sudden upheaval, most of the slave tribes within the tribe were killed or expelled in haste, so those sixty slave tribes can only endure humiliation and live in fear. Lang Ren is in power, and he is harsh, cruel, and perverse, so the tribe is filled with resentment and turmoil."
"Many powerful slaves have not been killed. They are intimidated by the tyranny of the Second Elder and the Seventh Elder and have no choice but to hide in the Eastern Continent. As long as Commander Lang raises his arms and calls, they will surely respond. The Huang Clan's rule will naturally collapse, and the Zhang Huang Clan will have a chance to rise again."
