The black steel axe slashed through a tree that was as thick as ten people hugging it, and the thick trunk was cut in half.
With a gloomy face, Xiong Shan carried the big axe on his back, carried the tree trunk with both arms, and strode towards the new encampment being built by the tribe. This type of Ironbone Wood was extremely heavy, and its density was several times higher than that of ordinary steel. Xiong Shan carried the tree trunk, which was nearly three hundred meters long, and walked quickly. Wherever he passed, the mountain rocks would be crushed by his rough skin.
The Xiong Family originated from the Mi Family, and also from the Xuanyuan Family of Gong Sun Family. They were the descendants of Emperor Xuanyuan. The Xiong Clan that Xiong Shan was born in was ordinary, but according to the tradition of the Sacred Emperor's descendants, the clan still used up all of its resources to nurture Xiong Shan, the only prince of the clan.
Although he was a 'prince' and had the bloodline of a holy emperor, Xiong Shan clearly understood that as a prince of the Xiong Family, he couldn't be compared with those princes from the Gong Sun Family. He was nearly thirty years old when he broke into the level of Divine Magus. How could he ever compare with those talented ones who stepped into the level of Divine Magi at the age of ten?
The so-called 'Prince Xiong Shan' was nothing more than a signboard of his clan, a signboard that allowed the clan leader and elders to feel better in front of Mi Family, and even Gong Sun Family elders.
Xiong Shan had always been clear about his identity, so he never took his title of 'prince' seriously. He worked honestly and fought diligently. Back in the Chi Ban Mountain defensive line, he had taken part in over ten great battles against the non-humankind. Because of this, he got to know many other talented human beings who were also honest and hardworking, such as Lie Mountain Kang, Huaxu Lie, and … Si Wen Ming.
Yes, Xiong Shan was Si Wen Ming's hardcore supporter, and it could even be said that he was one of Si Wen Ming's most trusted aides. On the battlefields against the non-humankind, the 'Black Bear Army' under Xiong Shan's command, which consisted of one-hundred-thousand clansmen of Xiong Shan's, had always been close to Si Wen Ming's main army. Therefore, the Black Bear Army could be seen as a part of Si Wen Ming's personal army.
"Stubborn elder!" Xiong Shan complained in a muffled voice, dragging the heavy iron-boned tree to the gate of the tribe's new encampment.
Dozens of carpenters from the clan strode over and took over the Iron-Boned Wood from Xiong Shan's hands. After processing, it would become a part of the gate of the new encampment. However, Xiong Shan felt that this method was very inappropriate. What kind of material could be cut in half by his axe? Would such a broken thing be able to protect his beloved clansmen?
Even if they couldn't use the divine materials collected from the stars in the sky to make the gate like the Xiong Family's base, the Giant Bear Valley, they would still need to use the essence of hundreds of metals. Added with all kinds of powerful spells, this gate could resist the attacks of wild beasts, especially those damned non-humankind beings.
But …
Xiong Shan stood at the gate of the future encampment, frowning as he looked at the encampment in the valley, which was filled with smoke.
Because of Emperor Xun, the Xiong Family clans had serious conflicts. Some Xiong Family clans were still willing to follow the Gong Sun Family and support Gong Sun Xun wholeheartedly. Some elite Xiong Family people, such as Xiong Shan, were surely Si Wen Ming's diehard supporters. They were never willing to follow Gong Sun Xun, who was a 'fatuous emperor'.
As mentioned earlier, the quarreling Xiong Family clans split up. Xiong Shan and his father took a batch of elite clansmen and left the encampment with over a million clansmen. They traveled for over ten-thousand miles and came to this valley to build a new encampment.
"Abba! I have to say, this place isn't reliable! " Xiong Shan abruptly pulled out the giant axe from his back and growled, "Go to Yao Mountain City … Divine Emperor Ji Hao's messenger told us that we can go to Yao Mountain City! In a month tops, we can reach Yao Mountain City. We shouldn't stay here! "
Among the million clansmen, no more than a hundred thousand were truly elite warriors. Although they had over a hundred thousand 'iron-skinned black bears' as their battle beasts, it was impossible for them to defeat the powerful non-humankind beings in the future.
Only by going to Yao Mountain City and gathering all of Si Wen Ming's brothers and sisters, combining their powers into a single fist, would they be able to strike the enemies better …
However, the few stubborn elders of Xiong Family had been talking nonstop, saying that they didn't want to live under the protection of the others, and that Xiong Family men should build their own foundations. When Xiong Shan heard their nonsense, he really wanted to use his axe to split open the heads of these elders, and see how their brains were grown.
Did Xiong Shan really not know? These few elders found a large magic crystal mine in this valley, along with quite a few precious metal materials that could be used to forge high-grade magic treasures. Therefore, they stubbornly insisted on staying in this valley.
For some trivial things, they exposed their clansmen to danger. Xiong Shan was so angry that he had nothing else to say.
This valley was located on the main road between Pu Ban City and You Xiong City. People who came and went here were all trusted members of the Gong Sun Family. Xiong Shan's family was in a situation like this. If they stayed in this valley like idiots, wouldn't they be waiting for the Gong Sun Family army to attack them?
Xiong Shan angrily growled. Xiong Shan's father frowned and walked out of a cottage, staring at Xiong Shan without saying a word. His eyes were filled with anger. With his experience since he was a kid, Xiong Shan immediately understood what his father wanted to say — 'Don't cause me any trouble, just stay away!'
Xiong Shan walked to his father with big steps. He silently reached out his hands, attempting to tell his father that he had made a wrong decision this time.
All of a sudden, a shrill horn resounded into the sky. Xiong Shan turned around in shock and saw dense clouds rolling in the direction of Pu Ban City. Following shrill screams, large groups of Jia Clan warriors trod on metal plates, which were faintly golden and had countless electric bolts coiled around their bodies, flying towards Pu Ban City.
Behind the thousands of Jia Clan's warriors was a formidable troop that looked like a black dragon. Human warriors, who were wearing high-quality armors and mounted on gigantic mountain bears, had been proudly singing their battle songs. Among their troops, hundreds of battle flags with totem patterns were fluttering in the wind. The totem pattern on those flags was a gigantic bear with a pair of wings on its back, treading on mountains and roaring towards the sky.
Flying bear totem battle flag, this was the totem battle flag of the You Xiong Family. The ones who showed up in this place were Gong Sun Family elites!
In other words, these elite warriors with flying bear totems were the guards of Gong Sun Xun, the current Emperor Xun.
Outside Xiong Shan's station, a watchman blew a horn. From a distance away, a flying bear rose into the sky and flew over. A scrawny old man mounted on the bear's back and shouted at Xiong Shan's people, "Under the emperor's order, we will punish the disobedient... You... No need to ask. You must be a traitor. Attack, destroy your family... All women stay!"
