Chapter 1051: Qin Gang and Meng Shan

“Tribute?”

Lin Dong was slightly startled for a moment before he came to a sudden comprehension . This place was the junction between Hundred Beast Ridge and Deep Lightning Mountain . Therefore, in order for the Nine-tail tribe to live here peacefully, they naturally had to pay a tribute to these two factions .

“Why are all of you hiding?”

“The women of our Nine-tail tribe are all extremely beautiful . Hence, it is very easy for us to attract trouble . If we catch the eye of those who come to collect tributes, there will be a great deal of trouble . ” Xin Qing’s eyes were dim . Perhaps being beautiful would bring a lot of benefits if one was born someplace else . However, it was extremely dangerous in a place like this . In fact, one could even end up implicating one’s entire tribe if one was careless .

Lin Dong was quiet . The nine-tail tribe was extremely beautiful, but they did not have the ability to protect their beauty .

“Previously, there was someone called Qin Gang from Hundred Beast Ridge, who came to collect the tribute . Sister Xin Qing caught his eye and he insisted on taking her as a concubine . In order to protect her, the chief asked her to temporarily leave the Beast War Region . Subsequently, our Nine-tail tribe had to pay quite a hefty price before Qin Gang reluctantly let this matter go to rest…” A young lady angrily said .

“Qin Gang?” Lin Dong glanced at Xin Qing who was gently biting her small mouth .

“He is one of the nine warriors of Hundred Beast Ridge and is extremely powerful . His strength is not inferior to that of Cao Ying from Blood Python City . ” Xin Qing said . In the face of such oppressive force, she had no means of retaliating besides fleeing .

Lin Dong nodded slightly . He turned his eyes and looked outside the village . This place was quite secluded . Coincidentally, it was also possible to see the scenery in the distance . At this moment, there were thick clouds of dust rising in that direction, while the thundering sound of galloping horses could be faintly heard .

　　……

“Haha, members of the Nine-tail tribe, hand over this year’s tribute!”

As the dust scattered, a loud laughter immediately reverberated over the village like thunder . Following this, the dust settled and one could see a black mass of people appearing outside the village . Their evil and ferocious auras caused even dark clouds to gather in the sky .

“This voice…”

The expressions of Xin Qing’s group changed drastically after hearing this loud laughter .

“Is that Qin Gang?” Lin Dong came to a comprehension when he saw this .

“Ah, dammit, why is he the one who is collecting tribute from our Nine-tail tribe…” Xin Qing gently bit her lips while uneasiness surged in her eyes .

Lin Dong slightly narrowed his eyes . He looked outside and saw a burly man standing in front of the group . This man was baring his upper body, while the surface of his body gave off the lustre of black rock . A brutal and ferocious aura spread from him

At this moment, this figure was riding a huge blood red bat as he smiled and looked at the Nine-tail village .

The light barrier covering the nine-tail village rippled soon after the loud laughter sounded as Aunt Xin led some experts from the Nine-tail village and stepped out .

“Haha, Chief Xin, it is time to hand over the tribute . I believe that there is no need for me to tell you the amount, am I right?” The man seated on the blood bat, smilingly looked at Aunt Xin and spoke in a lazy manner .

“Oh, it is Lord Qin Gang…” Aunt Xin nodded . She waved her hand before a Qiankun bag flew towards the man called Qin Gang . “There are ten million Xuan Yuan Pills inside . ”

Qin Gang grabbed the Qiankun Bag . He casually glanced at it before tossing it to his subordinate behind and laughed, “Chief Xin is really easy to talk to . ”

“My Nine-tail tribe still requires the protection of the Hundred Beast Ridge . It is only natural that we offer this tribute . ” Aunt Xin lowered her head and said .

“Does Chief Xin really think so?” Qin Gang asked playfully .

Aunt Xin stiffened slightly before quickly nodding .

“Where is that girl Xin Qing? Why didn’t she come to visit me now that she has returned?” Qin Gang smiled and asked .

Aunt Xin’s expression changed . She hurriedly said, “Lord Qin Gang, my daughter is training in the outside world and has yet to return . ”

“Do you really think that my Hundred Beast Ridge is blind?” Qin Gang laughed cold as he stared at Aunt Xin and said, “You should know how I feel about Xin Qing . If she comes with me, your Nine-tail tribe will be able to enjoy the complete protection of my Hundred Beast Ridge . Moreover, there is no need to hand over such a large tribute every year . Can’t you recognise the benefits?”

Aunt Xin’s expression fluctuated .

“I will be waiting here today . If you don’t allow that girl to come out, I can only lead some of my men into the village and search for her . ” Qin Gang crossed his hands over his chest and spoke indifferently .

The expressions of Aunt Xin and the elders of the Nine-tail Village became extremely ugly . However, they did not dare to show their anger . This lead to a stalemate between the two parties for a time .

　　……

“Qin Gang knows that you have returned . ” Lin Dong, who was observing the area outside of the village, suddenly turned his head towards Xin Qing, who had been peeping outside, and said .

Xin Qing’s pretty face changed upon hearing this . She involuntarily cried out indignantly, “That persistent and hateful fellow!”

“Those fellows refuse to leave…”

A young lady glanced at Xin Qing in a somewhat worried manner . Things would likely worsen once those men ran out of patience . Although they could not enter the village if they activated the Nine-tail village formation, they would definitely offend Qin Gang . Their Nine-tail village might be at the junction between Hundred Beast Ridge and Deep Lightning Mountain, but they did not belong to either side . Hence, Deep Lightning Mountain would not help them if Hundred Beast Ridge caused them trouble .

The young lady secretly glanced at Lin Dong as she spoke . She was about to speak when Xin Qing by the side glared at her . All she could do was to shut her mouth .

When Xin Qing saw this situation, she secretly sighed . She was clearly aware of Lin Dong’s character . If they were to open their mouths and beg, the latter would definitely lend them a hand . However, Qin Gang was not Cao Ying . Even if he could defeat Qin Gang, what about the aftermath? It would undoubtedly be a declaration of war on Hundred Beast Ridge . That huge faction… How could Lin Dong oppose them all by himself?

At that time, Lin Dong would undoubtedly find himself in great danger .

“More people are arriving…” Lin Dong looked outside of the village . It was as if he did not detect the exchange of glances between those girls behind him, as he spoke in a faint voice .

“Oh?”

Xin Qing’s group was startled upon hearing this . They lifted their heads and heard rumbling sounds transmitted from another direction .

“Could it be members from the Deep Lightning Mountain? They actually came at the same time…”

　　……

Rumble!

The ground shook as dust surged . A large group of people rapidly approached from a great distance away . Finally, they arrived at the Nine-tail village under the stunned eyes of Aunt Xin’s group . It was possible to see a fluttering flag with the word mountain within the group .

“It is the Mountain General from Deep Lightning Mountain, Meng Shan…”

Qin Gang frowned as he looked at the group that had arrived . Clearly, he did not expect to meet members of Deep Lightning Mountain .

“Qin Gang? It is surprising that you are here too . ” When Qin Gang discovered the leader of this group, the latter had also noticed his presence . The latter was startled as he curled the corner of his mouth and said .

The person who had arrived had a skinny figure . His skin was dark yellow in colour . If one was to look carefully, one would discover a layer of yellowish tiny scales that appeared somewhat mysterious .

“Lord Meng Shan… it isn’t time for Deep Lightning Mountain to collect their tribute, is it?” Aunt Xin Qing looked at Meng Shan and asked .

“Hehe, I am not here to collect tribute from your Nine-tail village . ” Meng Shan glanced at Aunt Xin and laughed . After which, he threw his somewhat shady eyes towards the Nine-tail village .

“I am here to look for a human . He is called Lin Dong… You should know . ”

Aunt Xin’s expression slightly altered . She said, “We do not know…”

“Hehe, Chief Xin, please don’t lie to him . Based on what I know, Blood Python City spent a great fortune to cause trouble for Lin Dong . Clearly, he is hired by them . ” Qin Gang laughed strangely . He really wanted the Nine-tail tribe to offend Deep Lightning Mountain . At that time, the Nine-tail tribe will have no choice but to cede to his demands .

Aunt Xin clenched her hands tightly . Her eyes were deeply worried . It was likely that she did not expect things to develop like this…


　　……

“Oh, it seems that I have been dragged into this matter…” In the village, Lin Dong suddenly smiled as he stood up .

“Sir Lin Dong, why don’t you leave from the back?” Xin Qing suddenly grabbed Lin Dong’s clothes as she spoke with red eyes . She was aware of how troublesome it would be if he got dragged into the matter .

“Although I don’t like trouble…” Lin Dong rubbed Xin Qing’s small head and smiled . However, his pitch black eyes contained an extremely sharp expression .

“I am not afraid of it . ”

“In this world, if one choose to hide when faced with trouble, there will come a time when one can no longer hide . Instead of that… it is best to get rid of the root of the problem right from the beginning . ”

“But that is Deep Lightning Mountain . They are much stronger than Blood Python City . ” Xin Qing hurriedly said .

“Relax . ”

Lin Dong comforted her . His body moved and turned into a light figure that hurried out of the village .

Xin Qing could only stomp her feet gently upon seeing this . After which, she lifted her head and looked outside of the village . A large group of people had already completely surrounded her entire village . The atmosphere inside the Nine-tail village became a little uneasy due to this .

　　……

A distance away from the Nine-tail village, the land beneath suddenly trembled, as Lin Dong exited the village . A black torrent surged past just like floodwater . This group was rather stealthy as they swiftly travelled . The dark red eyes were like ferocious beasts . Given the aura of this group, they could be considered as an army…

That almost corporeal ferocious aura was far superior compared to those people from the Blood Python City!

A black flag swayed with the wind amongst this black army . There was a huge bloody word on it . It looked like an absolute, ferocious tiger that was about to break free from the flag .

That word was… Yan .
