How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 406 - 0401 Mantu Tribe

Chapter 406: Chapter 0401 Mantu Tribe

Chapter 406 -0401 Mantu Tribe

Qianshan City, is one of Chu Country’s most important cities.

There, the terrain is perilous, and every time war breaks out, the casualty rate is extremely high.

In the past, there had even been battles at the Guiyuan Realm level.

“Alright, do you know in what capacity I am going?”

Chen Yu accepted this mission.

For now, on the Three Kingdoms Battlefield, Guiyuan Realm powerhouses only appear occasionally, so there’s no great cause for concern.

Moreover, even if Guiyuan Realm powerhouses appear, Chen Yu would not be afraid.

“Deputy Commander!”

The Bone Demon Palace Master said.

Elder Mao took a deep breath, this position was quite high, second only to the Commander.

Initially, when Mei Changqing participated in the war, he also started out slowly from being a small team leader.

After all, this was about waging war, not one-on-one fights. Without shrewd experience and extensive knowledge, it would be difficult to be fit for too high a position.

Moreover, as Deputy Commander, if Chen Yu failed to fulfill his responsibilities, or if he allowed Qianshan City to suffer severe losses, he himself would also be punished.

Furthermore, the Deputy Commander also had to abide by restrictions imposed by the Commander.

If Elder Mao remembered correctly, the Commander of Qianshan City was a protector from the Bone Demon Palace.

Overall, Chen Yu’s position not only entailed assuming great responsibility but also involved being under the restrictions of the Commander and following the Commander’s orders.

“It seems that Master Fu holds me in high regard to immediately assign me the position of Deputy Commander.”

Chen Yu said with a smile.

The Bone Demon Palace Master’s face stiffened, even a fool could tell that this was deliberately making things difficult for Chen Yu, yet Chen Yu responded with that comment.

“Hehe, make sure you perform well!”

Master Fu put on a semblance of a smile.

Afterward, Chen Yu and Elder Mao left the place.

“Yu’er, why did you agree so readily?”

Elder Mao was somewhat worried.

The Bone Demon Palace Master was clearly trying to target Chen Yu, but Chen Yu agreed without a second thought, jumping right into the pit they had dug for him.

“No worries, with my strength, you don’t need to be concerned, Master.”

Chen Yu said confidently.

Additionally, Chen Yu himself also wanted to go to war, to repel the external enemies and protect his sect, friends, and parents in Chu Country.

Subsequently, the master and apprentice parted ways.

Qianshan City was not too far from there. Chen Yu made his way alone and arrived in less than a day.

What entered his sight was a range of treacherous mountains and rivers.

Qianshan City was established atop a large mountain range, next to it a wide river, with its tumultuous waters flowing past.

Chen Yu, light as a swallow, leaped over the peaks and through the forests, arriving at the rear gate of Qianshan City.

“Who goes there?”

Several guards immediately approached.

Chen Yu took out a black token with silver stripes outlining the character “Commander” from the Smoke-spitting Pearl.

“Deputy… Commander!”

The guards’ faces drastically changed, and they immediately knelt on the ground.

They too had heard that a Deputy Commander was coming to Qianshan City, but they never imagined it would be such a young one.

“Deputy Commander, please!”

One of the guards led the way for Chen Yu.

The grand hall of Qianshan City.

At this moment, nearly ten people gathered inside the hall, all of them at the Qi Transformation Realm, yet the atmosphere was uncommonly tense.

“Commander Wei, they will come over and make noise again in a little while!”

An elderly man sighed.

“Those damned fellows, if it wasn’t for relying on Spirit Pets, they wouldn’t stand a chance against us!”

Another man with copper-colored skin cursed angrily.

“Gentlemen, please calm down, there will be a way!”

At the forefront, a square-faced man with profound eyes and a calm expression.

This man was the city’s Commander, also Guardian Wei of the Bone Demon Palace.

Just then, under the guidance of a guard, Chen Yu appeared at the entrance of the hall.

“What’s going on? Why did you two come here?”

The copper-skinned man, seeing a guard and a young man at the entrance of the hall, his expression darkened and he immediately shouted.

Clearly, he was venting the anger in his heart on these two people.

“Captain… please forgive us, this person is the new Deputy Commander!”

The guard immediately knelt on the ground, trembling with fear.

Upon hearing this, everyone in the hall directed their attention to Chen Yu.

They all knew that a new Deputy Commander was expected in Qianshan City.

Originally, they thought the higher-ups finally valued Qianshan City and were sending a powerhouse to support it.

But the one who arrived turned out to be such a young individual.

What kind of joke was this?

“Eh? That’s not right, this person seems to be Chen Yu?”

An elder of the Bone Demon Palace suddenly remembered.

Guardian Wei, from the foremost position, had a flash of light in his deep eyes.

“Chen Yu?”

The rest looked more closely at Chen Yu, finally confirming that it was indeed Chen Yu.

They had always been stationed at Qianshan City, only hearing news of Chen Yu’s return, and had never seen Chen Yu in person. At most, they may have seen his wanted poster before.

Once they learned of Chen Yu’s identity, they began to take him seriously.

The deeds of Chen Yu were known to hardly a few present, including how Mei Changqing of the Bone Demon Palace once suffered at Chen Yu’s hands.

“I heard that this young man participated in the highest meeting of the Three Kingdoms not long ago, and in that meeting, he even managed to gain the upper hand.”

“That shouldn’t be possible, should it? He’s just a junior; it would have been good enough if he hadn’t been suppressed by the other giants, how could he have gained any advantage?”

“I’m not clear on the details, but I do know that the Moon Spirit Ore Vein has already started to be cultivated near Yunyue Sect.”

A group of powerhouses exchanged whispers, growing more and more puzzled in their hearts.

Just then, the robust voice of Guardian Wei, the commander, rang out: “Although Chen Yu is young, the fact that he has been appointed deputy commander by those above indicates that he has some skills.”

“Come, Chen Yu, come in and take a seat, we’re discussing matters regarding the enemy.”

Guardian Wei revealed a trace of a smile.

Chen Yu unceremoniously walked in and sat down next to Guardian Wei.

“Matters regarding the enemy? Let’s hear it!”

Chen Yu spoke casually.

Many people present saw how Chen Yu took his seat and seemed to know his stuff; they felt some disdain in their hearts.

Within the hall, everyone fell silent, and no one answered Chen Yu’s question.

The copper-skinned man sneered inwardly: “Hehe, you’re acting so high and mighty just because you’ve just arrived. Sure, you’re the deputy commander, but you’re still too green!”

These high-ranking members aimed to give Chen Yu a dose of reality.

Although Chen Yu held a high position, everyone present had far more experience and seniority than him.

The copper-skinned man could imagine that next Chen Yu would become embarrassed and flustered, then storm off angrily, or perhaps report the matter to those above.

However, he thought too much.

“Has everyone become mute?”

Chen Yu’s deep and icy voice suddenly sounded.

Inside the grand hall, many powerhouses suddenly felt a dangerous aura and an inexplicable unease in their hearts.

The copper-skinned man felt a shock of alarm; at this moment, Chen Yu gave him such a feeling.

Just then.

A hurried and loud voice came from outside: “Report, the enemy is at the city’s base!”

“Go!”

Guardian Wei let out a low shout.

Instantly, everyone rose and left.

Chen Yu also followed the crowd to the top of the city walls.

Qianshan City was located at the summit of a mountain range, and on another high ground across the range, a dense cluster of dark shadows gathered.

Directly ahead of the enemy, there was a giant elephant as large as a building pavilion, with a golden platform on its back, around which a dark green python spiraled, and a young man lay within the golden platform.

Behind the giant elephant, there was a massive beast carriage, on which two copper pillars stood, each bound with many captives.

“Which of you from Qianshan City will come out and play with this young master today?”

The youth on the golden platform suddenly sat up, looking towards Qianshan City with a smile.

“Shall we stick to the rules? If no one comes to fight, I will kill five captives!”

The youth revealed a cruel smile.

“What’s going on here?”

Chen Yu’s expression darkened, and he asked with a sideways glance.

“That young man is Man Rong, the grandson of the Mantu Tribe’s Clan Leader. Though he appears to be a wastrel, he’s actually a beast taming genius who enjoys pit fights against others…”

This time, Guardian Wei took the initiative to explain.

It turned out that the Mantu Tribe accounted for a major part of Qianshan City’s enemies.

The Mantu Tribe, one of the Nine Great Tribes of Snow Mountain and a top tribe, was founded by a renowned Beast Taming Master. The tribe focused on beast taming and bred many powerful demon beasts and ancient beasts.

Some time ago, a grandson of the Mantu Tribe’s Clan Leader came to this battlefield.

On that day, the two sides clashed and Qianshan City suffered a bitter defeat, with many people from Chu Country captured by the enemy.

The next day, Man Rong used the captives as leverage, forcing Qianshan City’s Beast Tamers to come out for a beast fight.

The result was quite tragic; the only two Beast Tamers of Qianshan City were both miserably defeated by Man Rong.

“If no one fights, they will not attack, but they will kill five captives. If someone does fight, they will have up to three battles!”

Guardian Wei explained in great detail.

If no one fights, then five will be killed. If someone fights and loses all three, still only three will be killed, less than if no one fought, but such a loss of face would be devastating.

“Deputy Commander, you’ve just arrived and been appointed to this position; if you don’t make a mark, it will be hard to win respect.”

Guardian Wei wore an expression of difficulty.

The other high-ranking members also looked at Chen Yu, with an anticipatory look.

“Deputy Commander, show us what you’re capable of.”

“You were surely sent here to deal with this Man Rong.”

Everyone seemed to band together, earnestly elevating Chen Yu.

“Hurry up, have your so-called Deputy Commander come out swiftly, this young master doesn’t have all day to wait.”

Man Rong on the golden platform shouted again.

At that moment, Chen Yu stepped forward.
