89: Chapter 89 Return! The Horn of Total War

"The Tribe Leader is back!"

When Qin Yu's demon-god-like figure, accompanied by Chen Xiao and Liu Wei, surrounded by ten Dragon Riderss, reappeared at the valley entrance, the entire Dragon God Tribe was in an uproar!

Su Qingyao and Lin Waner, who had remained behind, rushed up to meet them immediately. Their eyes were filled with worry and the relief of having survived a disaster.

"Qin Yu, are you alright?"

Su Qingyao stepped forward, her fair palm gently stroking Qin Yu's bronze chest, feeling his strong and powerful heartbeat, and only then did her hanging heart finally settle.

Qin Yu looked down at her, and in those eyes, cold as frost, a rare trace of tenderness appeared.

"What could happen to me?"

Qin Yu's voice was not loud, but it carried an air of dominance that could sweep across the world.

"A bunch of weaklings, they couldn't hurt me."

His gaze swept over the crowd, scanning the entire Tribe.

All Tribe members, whether they were Valkyries sharpening their weapons or ordinary women processing animal skins, stopped what they were doing at this moment and gazed at their King with eyes of near-fanatical worship!

He had attended the banquet alone, broken into the enemy's heavily guarded fortress, and now, returned unscathed!

This in itself was the greatest victory! It was the ultimate display of divine power!

"Long live the Tribe Leader!"

I don't know who it was, but someone was the first to shout hoarsely.

The next second, the fanatical shouts, like a tsunami, resounded throughout the valley!

"Long live the Tribe Leader!!!"

"Dragon God Tribe, invincible!"

Qin Yu did not immerse himself in this adoration; the moment he returned, his eyes had already become incomparably cold and sharp.

He knew that the real war had only just begun.

"Pass on my orders!"

Qin Yu's voice instantly drowned out all the cheers, exploding in everyone's ears like thunder.

"All Tribe members, cancel all rest!"

"From this moment on, the Tribe enters the highest level of war alert status!"

"Chen Xiao!"

"Here!" war commander Chen Xiao straightened her back abruptly, her eyes burning with fighting spirit.

"You are to immediately lead the Dragon Riders squad and the first and second cohorts of Valkyries, with the Tribe as the center, to expand thirty kilometers outward and establish three circular defensive lines!"

"Any living thing that enters the defensive line, whether human or beast, is to be killed on sight!"

"I need an absolutely secure zone!"

"Yes!" Chen Xiao accepted the order, without a moment's hesitation, flipped onto the back of the Wind God, and with a murderous aura, immediately went to assemble the troops.

"Liu Wei!"

"Subordinate is here!" Liu Wei, holding her staff, bowed and replied.

"You are to lead the Arcanist Squad, coordinate with Chen Xiao's defensive lines, and set up 'Arcane Traps' and 'Alert Runes'! I need to know the location of even a fly if it flies in!"

"Understood!" Wisdom flashed in Liu Wei's eyes as she turned and left.

"Lin Waner!"

"I'm here, Tribe Leader!" Lin Waner, who was responsible for logistics and Tribe construction, stepped forward quickly.

"Re-inventory all stocks of beast meat, medicinal herbs, and fresh water, and implement wartime rationing! Ensure that every resource is used where it's needed most!"

"Also, tell those captive Slaves!" Qin Yu's tone suddenly turned cold, filled with unquestionable cruelty.

"Increase the mining output of the energy crystal mine by three times for me!"

"Tell them, if they can't dig out enough crystals, they don't eat!"

"Whoever dares to slack off will be thrown directly into the Swift Dragon's nest as food!"

"I don't care what method they use; within three days, I want to see enough energy crystals to equip an Arcanist Squad of fifty and three hundred Valkyries!"

Lin Waner's heart tightened, and she nodded heavily: "Understood!"

Order after order was issued clearly and forcefully from Qin Yu's mouth.

The entire Dragon God Tribe, a machine that had just been immersed in joy, instantly began to operate frantically with a terrifying efficiency that far exceeded any modern army!

The Valkyries rushed to the defensive lines, the Arcanists carved runes, ordinary members reinforced the fortifications, and the Slaves, under the whips of the overseers, let out painful wails but could only swing their pickaxes even more frantically!

The clouds of war hung over the Tribe.

But there was no fear here, no panic.

There was only one thing: a fanatical fighting spirit that was about to erupt, twisted into a single rope under the will of the absolute leader!

Su Qingyao stood quietly behind Qin Yu, watching him methodically forge the entire Tribe into a precision war machine.

Her beautiful eyes shone with brilliance.

This man not only possessed the personal martial power to destroy the world but also the commanding talent to devise strategies.

He was born a King!

"What's wrong? You've been looking at me."

Seemingly sensing Su Qingyao's gaze, Qin Yu turned around and looked at her after finishing all his instructions.

Su Qingyao's pretty face flushed slightly.

She hesitated for a moment, seemingly wanting to say something, but seeing the tense atmosphere around her, she swallowed her words back.

"It's nothing... I just feel that, Qin Yu, you... seem to have become stronger again."

Su Qingyao said in a low voice.

She could feel that from the time Qin Yu stepped into Hope Barrier until he returned now, it had been less than half a day.

But the intangible pressure from his body was several times more solid than before!

Especially when he was giving orders just now, that kingly pressure that looked down on the world even made her, a Holy Priestess, feel a palpitation.

"Slaughter makes me stronger."

Qin Yu said indifferently, clenching his fist, feeling the power surging within him even more violently than before.

At Hope Barrier, punching that giant man named "Iron Bull" to death had directly provided him with over thirty points of Strength and twenty points of Constitution!

It was even more rewarding than when he hunted an adult Tyrannosaurus Rex before!

Sure enough, hunting these humans who had awakened their talents was far more profitable than hunting beasts!

A trace of cold greed flashed in Qin Yu's eyes.

The three thousand plus people at Hope Barrier were no longer enemies in his eyes.

But... walking attribute points!

Just then, a unique system prompt sounded in Qin Yu's mind!

[Ding! Detected special energy fluctuation in the Tribe Aura 'Spreading Branches and Leaves'!]

[Detected high-intensity resonance between the host's 'Dragon God Bloodline' and the 'Holy Priestess' bloodline...]

Qin Yu's eyebrows shot up!

Special energy fluctuation?

He immediately locked his gaze on Su Qingyao in front of him.

In his [Totem Eye] vision, Su Qingyao's body was emitting a faint, holy, and life-filled golden halo!

That halo was so gentle, yet so... powerful!

Qin Yu's heart skipped a beat!

He seemed to... realize something!

"You..."

Qin Yu reached out, wanting to say something.

And Su Qingyao finally summoned her courage; her pretty face carried a trace of shyness, a trace of nervousness, and even more, an indescribable joy and holy radiance.

She gently took Qin Yu's large hand, which had been stained with countless blood, and placed it on her flat abdomen, which now seemed to contain a world.

Her voice was as soft as a mosquito's hum, yet it rang in Qin Yu's ears like the most sacred incantation.

"Qin Yu..."

"I think..."

"We are going to have a child."
