Dragon's Origin

Chapter 501: Baoqing Yu Tang's Hidden Strength, Continued 19

Whether it was the Xia family or anyone else, the first thing they thought of when it came to conquering and satisfying their desires was slaughter. They used terrifying slaughter to subdue those uncivilized savages, trying to make them submit.

Little did they know that the more such high pressure was applied, the harder it was to win people over. People in normal societies would painstakingly try to find ways to avenge themselves, let alone those barbarians.

Relying on slaughter could not make these barbarian tribes submit at all, but instead caused them to rebel. Over the centuries, the Xia family and another family next to them not only failed to conquer these barbarian tribes, but also suffered a lot of losses. In the end, they could only cease their efforts. Anyway, those barbarian tribes had no intention of expanding, so they lived in peace.

Baoqing Yu Tang was in the business of doing business, and they understood better how to conquer these uncivilized savages by using appeasement methods. As long as they gave a little bit more benefits, those savages would receive unprecedented material enjoyment, unprecedented convenience, and unprecedented opportunities to receive education. How could they not show goodwill to Baoqing Yu Tang?

On one side was slaughter and suppression, and on the other side was material bribery. Did these barbarians, whose brains were not smart enough, need to struggle to choose? In other words, the barbarian tribes that the Xia family had failed to conquer with hundreds of years of slaughter were easily bought off by Baoqing Yu Tang with things worth less than half the value of the equipment used by the Xia family's experts. They became Baoqing Yu Tang's population in the Shanyue area, and the Shanyue area was easily occupied by Baoqing Yu Tang along the way.

"Go and see other tribes." Wang Sheng did not disturb that tribe. He asked A-Qi to lead the way to the territory of another tribe.

A-Qi had lived in the Shanyue area for at least a few years since she was a child. She knew of at least five barbarian tribes. This one was the closest to the periphery. To go to another tribe, they had to go deeper.

Anyway, this place was not as dangerous as the Thousand Despair Ground. The three of them quietly bypassed this tribe almost without any obstacles and went straight to the second one.

The population of the second tribe was even larger than the first, with more than 10,000 people. Moreover, the second tribe was obviously no longer a simple settlement, but had already built a city.

This time, the observation distance was closer, and A-Qi and Old Taoist Lingxu could see it very clearly. There was no way around it. Such a big city could be seen with the naked eye even from a distance!

The expressions of the two were very bad. The barbarian tribes had already started building cities. What did this mean? Had Baoqing Yu Tang controlled the barbarian tribes to this point?

By the time they saw the third barbarian tribe, the three people's guesses had completely turned into reality. The third barbarian tribe had also built a city. What was even more exaggerated was that this tribe had already started building roads in the jungle. Looking at the direction of the roads that had already been opened, it was obvious that they were leading in four directions. In addition to one leading to the previous city, there were three other directions. They didn't know where they led to.

"Old Taoist, go into the city at night and see if there are any high-level experts." Wang Sheng didn't need to look any further. Just looking at this city, he knew what kind of business Baoqing Yu Tang had built here.

This posture was clearly intended to build a vassal state in the Shanyue area! Baoqing Yu Tang was playing too big this time, so big that it shocked everyone.

The old Taoist didn't say anything, just nodded. The three of them rested in a secret place in the jungle, eating, drinking, and taking care of their needs, taking turns cultivating, until night.

It wasn't until after midnight that the old Taoist quietly set off and went straight to the big city. He didn't return until dawn, bringing back a comatose young barbarian. The three of them didn't dare to stay. As soon as the old Taoist returned, Wang Sheng carried the young barbarian brought back by the old Taoist and quickly left the original resting place.

After finding another place far enough away from the city and secret enough, Wang Sheng put down the barbarian and began to observe.

The young barbarian was not old. His face, neck, and arms were dyed with several strange patterns using unknown plant dyes. Two of the colors were very similar to the camouflage oil Wang Sheng had smeared on his face back then. No wonder when he appeared in front of Song Yan back then, the Song family and the Dai family all said that Wang Sheng was a barbarian.

The barbarian's muscles were very strong, which could be seen with the naked eye. Wang Sheng nodded and asked the old Taoist, "What's the situation inside? What's his cultivation level now?"

"It's very bad!" The old Taoist's expression was very solemn when he said these three words, which made A-Qi a little uneasy. Being able to make the old Taoist show such an expression meant that the situation inside must be worrying.

"In the past, those barbarians didn't know how to cultivate profound techniques. They all relied on some superficial cultivation methods and on the instinct of their bodies and the instinct of their Yuan Souls to improve their strength." The old Taoist said the reason why it was very bad: "But now, they have begun to cultivate various cultivation techniques. Although they are not the secret techniques of the various families, but some common goods, but after all, those common goods are also orthodox cultivation formulas."

Wang Sheng nodded. A disorganized group of barbarian tribes attacking each other was not terrible, but such an organized and disciplined barbarian tribe was the most terrible.

"What realm is his cultivation at?" Wang Sheng couldn't help but ask. If they had just started cultivating and their cultivation realm was not high, the threat would not be very high.

"There are many legendary experts. Everyone in the world has accelerated their cultivation speed during this period, which has also affected this side." The old Taoist still shook his head: "Although there are no secret techniques from various families, it is precisely these common goods that are very suitable for these barbarians to cultivate. Their cultivation has improved a lot in a short period of time, and almost every barbarian has a good Yuan Soul, so there is a lot of room for improvement."

"If I didn't believe that you weren't from here, if I changed to someone else, I would definitely suspect that you must be from here." Old Taoist Lingxu was still praising: "You haven't been inside to see it. Don't look at them as barbarians, each of them has amazing cultivation qualifications! Why didn't I discover this good method earlier? If I had opened the Lao Jun Temple here earlier, what would Baoqing Yu Tang have to do with it?"

The latest novel is first published on Liǔ 9 Shū Bā!

"What about this one?" Wang Sheng pointed to the young barbarian who was still unconscious and asked.

"He just started cultivating, no more than half a year at most, and he is already in the late stage of the first realm." Old Taoist Lingxu replied: "He is cultivating by looking at the techniques. He should be able to understand our words, so I just brought him out to ask. Don't tell me you didn't bring the Truth Pill."

Of course, Wang Sheng carried the Truth Pill with him. It cost 500,000 for one pill. For Wang Sheng, who had just arrived in this world, one pill could make him bankrupt and owe a lot of debt, but now, it was just one of the supplies he carried with him.

Old Taoist Lingxu didn't know what method he used to wake up the barbarian. The barbarian was about to jump up, but was held down by Wang Sheng with one hand, and then forcibly fed a Truth Pill. Then the three of them waited quietly for the medicinal power to take effect.
