Chapter 1548: Decision of the Barbarian Race

Translator: Legge

In the depths of the Great Boulder Forest, two burly men sat opposite one another with a few jars of strong wine on the table, filling the air with the fragrance of wine.

One of them was more than 30 feet tall. Even though he was in a lotus position, he was close to 20 feet tall and looked sturdy like a mountain.

The burly man’s gaze was dignified—he was the Barbarian clan leader, Man Feng.

The person opposite the burly man had scarlet hair that burned like flames. He had a rough appearance and an unshaved beard, but he exuded a malevolent aura!

“What?!”

Suddenly, Man Feng threw the wine jar on the ground and slammed the table. He glared at the scarlet-haired burly man opposite him with a shocked expression and asked, “Long Ran, was what you said true?”

The scarlet-haired burly man was the red-headed ghost of the Dragon race!

The red-headed ghost nodded. “Absolutely.”

Man Feng was bewildered and pondered for a moment before frowning. “Long Ran, on account of our relationship, I can turn a blind eye to whatever nonsense your cub of the Dragon race outside creates.”

“However, you can’t spout nonsense like that!”

Long Ran rolled his eyes. “Barbarian, we’ve been through life and death together. How can I lie to you about something like this?”

After pondering for a long time, Man Feng nodded. “I definitely believe you. However, the problem is how to make the other Patriarchs of the Barbarian race believe you.”

“The decision of the Barbarian race concerns their future. Although I’m the clan leader, I can’t make the decision.”

The red-headed ghost waved it off. “It’s fine, I have evidence.”

Man Feng’s eyes lit up but he was skeptical. “After all, it’s been so long since the primordial war. What evidence can you have?”

“The evidence is not with me. However, everything will be revealed at the Ten Thousand Race Meet,”

The red-headed ghost said.

Man Feng said in a deep voice, “Alright! I believe you and can even let the Barbarian race take part in the Ten Thousand Race Meet! However, before this matter is made clear, I can’t guarantee that the Barbarian race will definitely join forces with the Dragon race.”

“No problem,”

The red-headed ghost said confidently, “The truth will naturally be revealed at the Ten Thousand Race Meet,”

After a brief pause, he turned around and his gaze seemed to cross the voids to land in the Barbarian Palace. Suddenly, he said, “But now, you’ve got to arrange a secret chamber for Long Mo. He’s about to break through!”

“Also, let me remind you that the cub you’re referring to is a Taboo Dragon Phoenix!”

“He can kill early-stage Mahayana Patriarchs at the Half-Martial Ancestor realm. Once he enters the Mahayana realm and becomes a Patriarch, he’ll be on the same level as us. Don’t speak without restraint.”

Man Feng grumbled, “Fine, got it. You’re the most protective of him. If I didn’t give you face, do you think he would be able to behave so arrogantly in the territory of the Barbarian race?”

“He doesn’t know that I’m here this time round. You don’t have to tell him either,”

As though he recalled something from the past, a look of sadness flashed through the red-headed ghost’s eyes as he murmured, “I was a little afraid after that incident.”

Man Feng was silent and merely patted the red-headed ghost on the shoulder as a form of comfort.

He knew that the red-headed ghost thought of his child.

10,000 years ago, it was because of the death of the red-headed ghost’s child that he went into a complete frenzy and massacred everyone, creating a catastrophe.

The red-headed ghost had long regarded Su Zimo as his child.

He did not wish for the tragedy of the past to repeat itself on Su Zimo.

Therefore, this time round, he followed behind the Dragon Phoenix True Body and the others secretly to protect them.

He even arrived in the Barbarian race a step earlier and sought out the Barbarian clan leader to explain the pros and cons.

Otherwise, the Barbarian race would have been alarmed a long time ago after such a huge commotion in the Barbarian Palace—why else would no Barbarian Patriarchs appear even after such a long time?

…

In the Barbarian Palace.

The young master of the Barbarian race and two Barbarian Patriarchs looked at the dilapidated Barbarian Palace. The ground was filled with blood and the corpses of the God race. Their expressions were terrible and they were enraged!

The young master of the Barbarian race clenched his fists and grit his teeth. “Long Mo, this is the Barbarian race. Aren’t you way too domineering by starting a massacre in the Barbarian race?!”

“Long Mo,”

A Barbarian Patriarch hollered as well, “You’re so arrogant and bloodthirsty and you’re trying to force the Barbarian race to submit to your demands! Let me tell you, the Barbarian race will definitely not join forces with you!”

“It’s not that I’m bloodthirsty, it’s that the God race deserves to be killed,”

The Dragon Phoenix True Body said indifferently.

“Hmph, what a joke!”

The other Barbarian Patriarch sneered, “The Barbarian race will report today’s matter to the God race as it is! Leave, the Barbarian race does not welcome you!”

The Dragon Phoenix True Body was silent.

The outcome today was definitely not what he wanted.

He was indignant.

However, he knew in his heart that if he revealed the truth of the primordial war now, he would only attract the ridicule of the Barbarian race and they would not believe him.

After all, the truth was way too terrifying!

It had completely overturned everyone’s understanding!

The Barbarian race would definitely be prejudiced and deem it his excuse to frame the God race after killing them.

However, the Dragon Phoenix True Body was indignant to leave the Barbarian race just like that.

On the other hand, Long Cang and the others did not think that way.

The Dragon Phoenix True Body caused a huge ruckus in the Barbarian Palace and killed the Firmament Sovereign. They couldn’t be gladder than to be able to leave unscathed.

“Young master, don’t think about it. Let’s leave this place first!”

Long Cang sent a voice transmission secretly, “We’ll rethink the matter of joining forces with the Barbarian race. We can’t linger here.”

“Master, let’s hurry and leave!”

Solitary Cloud urged as well.

The dragons were anxious, afraid that the Barbarian race would renege on their words.

“Hold on!”

Suddenly, the young master of the Barbarian race shouted.

“It’s over!”

Long Cang and the others felt their hearts skip a beat and realized that the situation was bad.

The expression of the young master of the Barbarian race was a little strange. Unlike what Long Cang and the others expected, he did not look angry and murderous. Instead, he looked embarrassed.

“Cough, cough…”

He coughed gently and arrived before the Dragon Phoenix True Body before cupping his fists. “Well… Brother Long Mo, please forgive me for my rudeness earlier on…”

A look of surprise flashed through the eyes of the Dragon Phoenix True Body.

Long Cang and the others were dumbfounded.

What was going on?

In just a short while, the attitude of the Barbarian race towards them had reversed drastically?

The first reaction of the dragons was that the Barbarian race was trying to trick them!

However, on second thought, the Barbarian race had always been open and honest with clear distinction between gratitude and hatred. They never hid anything from anyone.

They would definitely not be acting as such if they truly wanted to lay the blame on them.

However, the dragons were puzzled as to what happened.

The young master of the Barbarian race made an inviting gesture. “Brother Long Mo, please enter.”

The Dragon Phoenix True Body pondered for a moment before shifting his gaze to the two Barbarian Patriarchs. He said hesitantly, “That’s not good, right? These two Barbarian seniors just berated me that the Barbarian race doesn’t welcome me.”

The two Barbarian Patriarchs blushed and wanted to find holes to hide in.

Both of them gritted their teeth in hatred!

They had both lived for so long, how could they not tell that the Dragon Phoenix True Body was repeating what they said intentionally?

The two Barbarian Patriarchs walked over slowly and cupped their fists towards the Dragon Phoenix True Body, saying embarrassedly, “Please forgive us, young master of the Dragon race. Our Barbarian race is straightforward and reckless. Don’t take it to heart.”

“Well said, well said!”

The Dragon Phoenix True Body smiled gently. “You’re making things sound too serious, seniors.”

The young master of the Barbarian race walked over and hugged the shoulder of the Dragon Phoenix True Body, saying with a smile, “Brother Long Mo, let’s drink to our hearts’ content and forget about today’s matter.”

“When the time comes, we’ll head to the Ten Thousand Race Meet together!”
