Unknowingly, the east had already begun to lighten with the pale gray of dawn.

Ye Chuxue, who usually woke up early, slept until late morning this time, lazily curled up in bed.

However, it couldn’t be helped.

The bastard Li Chen had just returned and kept her up until late at night, showing no tenderness, taking her seven times before finally stopping.

The next day, the fragmented sunlight streamed through the window into the room, falling on Ye Chuxue’s cheeks, twinkling with a faint glow.

Ye Chuxue was awakened by the sunlight. Her long eyelashes fluttered as she slowly opened her eyes.

She saw Li Chen had already woken up and was staring at her quietly, like an artist appreciating a piece of art, her pretty face instantly flushing red.

She pouted, playfully chiding, "Hey, haven’t you seen enough yet?"

Li Chen kissed Ye Chuxue on the face again and smiled, "Never enough!"

As he spoke, one hand was gently caressing Ye Chuxue’s skin, as smooth as Jiangnan silk.

Ye Chuxue, like a docile kitten, snuggled into Li Chen’s arms, finding a comfortable position to lie down.

After some casual chatting, Li Chen began asking about the situation on Earth during the ten years he was away.

Ye Chuxue paused momentarily and then recounted everything she knew in detail.

On the surface, Earth’s situation seemed calm, but underneath the currents were surging.

The forces opposing the Star Pavilion were emerging like bamboo shoots after a rain, even forming alliances with the intent to topple Star Pavilion and redistribute benefits.

Currently, Ye Chuxue was at the Heavenly Pool Mountain Star Pavilion Headquarters, while Ling Shuanghua had returned to Jiuzhou to oversee the Jiuzhou Branch.

Not long ago, there was a rebellion in the Barbaric, and Lian Hongshang had already returned to the Azure Dragon Tribe to command.

The battle is currently in a stalemate, with both sides at a standoff across the Dragon River.

Elsewhere, smoke is rising everywhere. The Star Pavilion’s foundation is too shallow, lacking strong experts, unable to provide effective support.

They could only let the Little Demon Immortal return to the Demon Clan to call for demon forces to enter the Barbaric to assist Lian Hongshang in quelling the rebellion.

Seeing that in just ten years since he left, Earth had become such a mess again, Li Chen slightly frowned.

It seems some forces really act up if you don’t discipline them for three days!

At noon, Li Chen went to visit his parents and some friends.

The next morning, he prepared to head to the Barbaric to help Lian Hongshang quell the rebellion there.

...

The Barbaric Land is divided into five major regions!

Among them, the Azure Dragon Tribe occupies the north, the Southern Barbarian Tribe defends the south, the Red Tiger Tribe is the overlord of the Western Barbarians, the Teng Snake Tribe dominates the Eastern Barbarians, while the Shaman Tribe, led by the High Priest, sits in the central region, overseeing the hundred tribes of the Barbaric Land and its millions of people.

However, ten years ago, Li Chen, with just one sword, swept through the Barbaric Land. He beheaded the Southern Barbarian King and crushed the Southern Barbarian Tribe, then in the Barbaric Sacred Realm, he killed the High Priest and five great shamans, causing the Shaman Tribe to collapse instantly.

After that, the Azure Dragon Tribe, with Li Chen’s support, rose to power, becoming the dominant force in the Barbaric.

At that time, Li Chen was unstoppable, and the Red Tiger Tribe, the overlord of the Western Barbarians, and the Teng Snake Tribe, the overlord of the Eastern Barbarians, also nominally submitted.

However, the year after Li Chen left Earth, the newly pacified Barbaric Land was once again filled with smoke. The remnants of the Shaman Tribe and the Southern Barbarian Tribe united to oppose the not yet firmly established Azure Dragon Tribe.

Initially, the Azure Dragon Tribe could quell the rebellion and maintain its dominant position.

But after a period of observing, the Red Tiger Tribe, the overlord of the Western Barbarians, and the Teng Snake Tribe, the overlord of the Eastern Barbarians, began to stir, attacking the Azure Dragon Tribe from the east and west.

The Azure Dragon Tribe was greatly defeated, repeatedly retreating their defense line.

If it weren’t for the twenty thousand Puppet Heavenly Soldiers left by Li Chen and the totem Jiao Long defending, and the Little Demon Immortal’s demon army providing side support, the Azure Dragon Tribe would have long been pushed back to the Northern Barbarians.

During the last great war, the Azure Dragon Tribe’s clan leader Klu was killed in battle, causing panic among the people.

Several elders almost went into internal strife over the clan leader position.

However, fortunately, Lian Hongshang, the Holy Envoy, suppressed them single-handedly.

Under Lian Hongshang’s guidance, Klu’s son Huli ascended, taking over the clan leader position, barely stabilizing the tribe internally.

However, the crisis of the Azure Dragon Tribe was far from over, still in a precarious situation.

Moreover, the newly ascended clan leader Huli lacked authority, leaving Lian Hongshang, the Holy Envoy, not daring to slack off even a bit, constantly overwhelmed with work.

As the Azure Dragon Tribe was retracting its defenses, the Shaman Tribe was holding a sacrificial ceremony.

Since the High Priest and five great shamans were killed by Li Chen, the Shaman Tribe had been torn apart.

Until seven years ago, a Barbarian youth named Fire Wolf emerged out of nowhere.

Fire Wolf had exceptionally high talent, reaching the Divinity Transformation Realm at a young age, with combat prowess surpassing even the High Priest. In the history of the Barbarian Clan, this was said to be unprecedented.

At least in the Barbaric Land, tracing back a thousand years, there was none comparable.

Perhaps only the human prodigy Li Chen could rival him!

Fire Wolf declared himself the Shaman King, reorganized the Shaman Tribe, then allied with the Southern Barbarian Tribe, as well as the Teng Snake Tribe and Red Tiger Tribe, forming a four-pronged attack against the newly risen dominant Azure Dragon Tribe.

Not long ago, he rallied the Four Great Tribes and various subordinate tribes, amassing an army of 1.2 million, claiming to be 3 million strong, to launch a fierce attack on the Azure Dragon Tribe.

The Azure Dragon Tribe gathered its elite warriors for a showdown.

This battle was fought with the heavens darkening and the earth shaking, corpses truly covered the ground, rivers of blood flowing.

After a fierce struggle, the Azure Dragon Tribe was unable to withstand it, thrown into chaos, with clan leader Klu and the Black Demon King both killed by them. Their ferocity was evident, striking fear into people’s hearts.

If it weren’t for the Little Demon Immortal leading a 200,000-strong demon army, arriving in time to support and stabilize the ranks.

Fearfully, after this battle, the entire Azure Dragon Tribe would have ceased to exist.

Seeing that neither side could decisively defeat the other in the short term, they each sounded the retreat to regroup for another battle.

Thus, both sides entered a stalemate standoff.

Now, a whole year had passed since the last great battle.

Having failed narrowly last time, Fire Wolf decided to launch another major battle to completely obliterate the Azure Dragon Tribe.

To this end, he specially held a grand sacrificial ceremony.

The Shaman King Fire Wolf personally presided over the ceremony, with the new Southern Barbarian King Huyan Zhuo, as well as the Red Tiger King, Teng Snake King, and leaders from nearly a hundred other tribes attending in formation.

In addition, there were the elite warriors from each major tribe, totaling over a million.

For a time, banners fluttered, drums thundered, causing the entire Barbaric Land to tremble violently, the wind and thunder roaring, the earth and sky changing color!
