Chapter 61: Tang's Western City

  The Heishi tribe, although only losing a thousand warriors, suffered severe economic losses. At the same time, three tribes that had surrendered to them were also destroyed, causing them to completely lose the hearts of the people, and many small tribes declared independence.

  As for the Moon Tooth tribe, their losses were the most severe. They have almost approached the Su tribe. If it weren't for being the second largest tribe in Western City Prefecture with a deep foundation, they would probably end up like the Ta Shi tribe and become a small tribe.

  The Moon Tooth tribe only had two battles with the Su family tribe, resulting in about 9,000 casualties. At the same time, they were also killed by Su Ming, three innate masters, one of whom was a late-stage innate master, and their multi-yearly trained spy talents were all killed. The loss is extremely heavy, and they no longer dare to take action against the Su family tribe.

  The Su tribe calmed down the surrounding tribes and got a chance to develop. After one by one small tribe surrendered, the Su tribe finally took a breath, at this time they had recovered five percent of their heyday, enough to resist attacks from other tribes.

  After Su Huan gave up the position of Patriarch, Su Han's position as Patriarch was basically stable. Under the concerted efforts of all members of the Su family, the Su family gradually became stronger. Although a batch of warriors were lost in this battle, many warriors also seized the opportunity to successfully advance.

  Su Ming saw that the Su family and the Su tribe had all entered a state of stability, and he began to think about venturing out into the world. However, before doing so, he once again entered the desolate forest, where he discovered that the black bear group had not been exterminated. His heart was filled with great joy, for although they had regained their Black Bear King, its strength was only at the mid-fourth stage.

  With the help of his fourth-stage strength and the sharpness of his golden knife, Su Ming killed the Black Bear King after a fierce battle. Just as the two-day task was about to end, he successfully cleared out the last black bear. In just two days, Su Ming had narrowly escaped death multiple times, and his body was covered in wounds. If it weren't for the healing pills and spiritual supplements that supported him, Su Ming would have lost his combat strength long ago.

  After completing the task, Su Ming successfully entered the Later Heaven Stage. However, he no longer dared to hope for a perfect Early Heaven Stage, because in the entire Desolate Forest, there were only those lizards left among the four-stage early-stage demonic beasts. More than 30 lizards, he definitely couldn't kill them within two days. Moreover, the lizards' strength was stronger than that of the black bears, and the black bears would only use brute force to fight, without any intelligence. This was also one of the reasons why Su Ming could complete the task.

  At this time, Su Ming discovered that both his divine and demonic tasks were stuck, and he was unable to complete them for the time being. Su Ming could only leave the desolate forest with Hei Xiong Wang's corpse on his back.

  When Su Ming's windy image appeared again, it caught the attention of all the martial artists in the small town. Many scattered martial artists included Su Ming as a target for discussion, and they didn't dare to have any evil thoughts about him. Because when Su Ming came out of the wilderness, apart from his clothes being torn, he was not injured at all, and his aura had reached the late stage of Xiantian. Moreover, with the corpse of the Black Bear King, Su Ming's combat power in their minds was already comparable to that of a Xiantian Great Perfection, and his innate talent was extremely abnormal.

  Previously, Su Ming was thought to have spent a lot of time waiting for the Black Bear King and then ambushing it when it was injured. Many people believed that Su Ming had patience and courage, but they didn't think he was very strong.

  This time Su Ming was absolutely the real deal, because he had only been in the forest for less than a day, and many warriors knew that this black bear had just become the Black Bear King and would not leave its territory, let alone be injured. To kill the Black Bear King from within its territory, even an average Innate Full Circle warrior might not be able to do it, so Su Ming's fighting power absolutely surpassed that of an average Innate Full Circle warrior. This kind of strength had already reached the top level in a small town, so no one would dare provoke such an existence.

  Although the mid-fourth-order Black Bear King was not as valuable as the late fourth-order one, the buyer still paid 100 Purple Gold Coins to get on good terms with Su Ming, causing his waist pouch to bulge once again.

  Su Ming returned to the Su family tribe, originally planning to bid farewell to his parents and leave the Su family to venture out. Who would have thought that an unexpected guest disrupted all plans? The master of the Western City Prefecture sent someone to notify the chief of the Su family tribe to bring Su Ming to the Western City Prefecture to attend a grand event held once every ten years, without specifying what it was about.

  Because Su Ming was not there, this official from the Western City Prefecture actually stayed in the Su family tribe for a day, which made the people of the Su family very suspicious. In the past, the Western City Prefecture would always notify and leave, because no tribe dared to disobey the orders of the prefecture master. To quote the official's words, if Su Ming didn't return for a day, he would wait for a day.

  At first, the Su family thought that Su Ming had offended the Western City Prefecture, but after a day of interaction, they realized that it was actually the master of the Western City Prefecture who had taken notice of Su Ming's talent and wanted to meet him. To show his sincerity, he let this Tianling realm warrior personally escort Su Ming to the Western City Prefecture.

  After Su Ming returned, the Tianling Realm warriors didn't let him say anything and had Su Han bring Su Ming along with them without asking for his opinion. After a day of rushing, the three arrived at the gate of the Tang Clan's West City. When Su Ming saw the city gate that was tens of meters high, he slightly furrowed his brow.

  "Ming'er, this is the Western City of the Tang Clan. The dominant Western City Prefecture, which spans tens of thousands of kilometers, is located within these city walls." Su Han said, seeing Su Ming looking up at the Western City's castle towers.

  "Hey there, young man! Isn't this Western City much stronger than your Su Clan's territory?" The leading official of the Western City Prefecture turned around and smiled at Su Ming as he spoke.

  He was originally puzzled by the master's arrangement for him to go to the Su family tribe, because such things would not mobilize him as a Tianling realm warrior, and before departure, he specifically reminded him that he must bring Su Ming back, which is the first time he has seen the master so meticulous about someone in decades of entering the Western City Master.

  He and Zhang San Yuan were both officials of the Western City Prefecture, and their relationship was not bad in peacetime, so he had some understanding of the Su clan. The Su clan only had one Tianling realm warrior, and his strength was equivalent to his own. At first, he thought that another Tianling realm warrior had appeared in the Su clan, but when he arrived at the Su clan, he found that it was not the case.

  The entire Su family clan, except for Su Hao, considered Su Han to be the strongest. He was a naturally gifted individual with great potential, but he was already over thirty years old. Although his talent was not bad, it wasn't enough to make their master specifically entrust him with anything.

  When Su Ming appeared before him, he finally understood the intentions of their lord. At the age of 16, a late-stage innate martial artist, even if they were the most dazzling genius in the Western City Manor, was not as good as Su Ming. Such an extraordinary young man would likely be snatched away by the Tang Clan's main city without hesitation. With time and resources, this person will undoubtedly become a Purple Mansion cultivator in the near future, or even higher, and it is possible to become a legendary figure.

  The third place in the fantasy list hasn't even warmed up yet, and it's been robbed by others. Xiaozhi is about to cry. Now, not even the top ten chrysanthemum on the total list is guaranteed.
