Translator: 549690339

After Lu Chen left the prison, Xiao Pengthian let out a deep sigh. They had now completely run out of options.

To survive, to protect the entire Sky Wolf King tribe, they might have only one choice—to pledge loyalty to the North Prince.

But…

They had just been slaughtered by the soldiers led by the North Prince—two hundred thousand of their own kin.

How many in the tribe would be willing to pledge loyalty to the North Prince now?

If the North Prince sincerely planned to relocate the Sky Wolf King tribe to North City without any deceit, it was very likely that he would also disperse the entire Sky Wolf King tribe and not allow them to stay together.

If that were the case, would the Sky Wolf King tribe still be the Sky Wolf King tribe?

Once their people were scattered across various places in North City, their tribe would essentially cease to exist.

By then, his title of Sky Wolf King would be nothing but that, a title—he would have neither land nor followers.

Xiao Pengthian had pondered long and hard in the prison, yet in the end, he could not make up his mind. He decided to wait until the King’s wife and the North Prince negotiated before making a decision.

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

Thanks to Wu Yuan’s shuttling back and forth, eventually, a negotiation time and venue were set between Lu Chen and Yelv Nanyan.

Soon, Lu Chen led his people northward to the grasslands of the North Land.

Lu Chen was no fool; he naturally would not venture deep into the grasslands. The negotiation site was located beside a tributary of the Wanning River.

By agreement, each side was only allowed to bring five hundred men.

Lu Chen also took only five hundred Black Cavalrymen to the North Land.

Of course, Mu Changtian, Qin Yushan, and Wenren Lie also went along.

Yelv Nanyan did the same. Although their tribe hardly had any men left, in order not to show their dire situation to the North Prince, they managed to gather five hundred robust men, who appeared to be quite powerful. However, among them, there was not a single martial artist of the Master Realm.

As Lu Chen was about to reach the designated location, he saw a troop of cavalry already waiting on the riverbank, and tables along with woolen seating had been arranged.

As Lu Chen’s group gradually approached the meeting place, his eyes caught two beautiful figures.

One of them was a voluptuous woman draped in a fur cloak with various ornaments and a hair bun, catching Lu Chen’s eye.

The woman was dignified and elegant, looking nothing like a woman from the Barbarian Tribe; she seemed more like someone from the Great Xia.

At this moment, Lu Chen used the system to identify the woman’s information.

[Name: Yelv Nanyan]

[Identity: Former Sky Wolf King’s wife, 32 years old, Ninth Grade Martial Artist, mother was a young lady from a certain family in Great Xia Dynasty; kidnapped by the Barbarian Tribe in her youth, gave birth to Yelv Nanyan in the Barbarian Tribe; influenced by her mother from a young age, she harbors longing for Great Xia, served Sky Wolf King for many years as he was already old when she married him, leaving her still a maiden; she wields great power within the Sky Wolf King tribe, having led the tribe to further growth and formidable strength while caring for the former Sky Wolf King.]

[Rating: 96]

[Favorability: 45]

After reading Yelv Nanyan’s information, Lu Chen wasn’t too surprised; this information was more or less the same as what the Brocade Guard had collected about her.

Then, Lu Chen’s gaze moved to the woman next to Yelv Nanyan, who wore fur clothes and looked somewhat young and naive.

[Name: Xiao Wenyao]

[Identity: Sky Wolf King’s daughter, Barbarian Princess, Seventh Grade Martial Artist, Uncle Xiao Pengthian, 18 years old this year; doesn’t want to marry the North Fre King, has tried to escape to Great Xia to live several times; Xiao Pengthian planned to secretly send Xiao Wenyao to live in Great Xia after taking down North City; knowing that the Barbarian Army failed, Xiao Wenyao plans to trade herself for Xiao Pengthian.]

[Rating: 94]

[Favorability: 50…51…55 (continuously rising)]

Upon seeing Xiao Wenyao’s information, Lu Chen was somewhat surprised. As the daughter of the Sky Wolf King, having taken her father’s life, she not only held no resentment toward him but also had a favorability of over 50 towards him, which was still increasing.

Interesting.

Meanwhile.

Xiao Wenyao and Yelv Nanyan both scrutinized Lu Chen, who was approaching from a distance.

Yelv Nanyan had long known that Lu Chen was but a teenager of sixteen or seventeen. However, all the information she had received about him previously painted him in a negative light, such as him being a hedonist keeping many beauties in the Prince’s Mansion and indulging in pleasure all day, and already hollowed out by luxury.

But now, it seemed all that information was false.

The young man riding towards them, dressed in a cyan-black Python Dragon Robe, appeared elegant, handsomely extraordinary, and his physique seemed robust and strong. He was nothing like someone who had been hollowed out by debauchery.

Clearly, they had been deceived.

No, more accurately, everyone had been deceived by the North Prince.

Yelv Nanyan immediately reassessed Lu Chen, identifying him as a man of great ambition.

Yelv Nanyan couldn’t help but worry; today’s negotiation might not go smoothly.

Moreover, Yelv Nanyan also noticed the Black Cavalrymen following behind Lu Chen. There might only be five hundred of them, but these Black Cavalry exuded a fierce aura; they were elite Heavy Cavalry.

Clearly, the North Prince’s victory over the three hundred thousand Barbarian Army must have involved these Heavy Cavalry. Even though the North Prince had only brought these five hundred men, Yelv Nanyan knew there must be more than just five hundred Heavy Cavalry in North City. The North Prince bringing these five hundred Heavy Cavalry was a clear show of military prowess.
