Lu Chen quickly arrived at the camp holding the Barbarian Tribe captives alongside Yelv Nanyan and Xiao Wenyao.

There were a hundred thousand captives from the Barbarian Tribe, and North City had put in a substantial amount of effort just to manage these captives.

The camp for the Barbarian captives was stationed with ten thousand Heavy Cavalry men; aside from them, there were also regular soldiers responsible for managing the captives.

Essentially, one North City soldier had to be responsible for more than a hundred Barbarian captives, which put significant pressure on the North City soldiers in charge of management.

The majority of officers and soldiers from North City believed that killing these Barbarian captives would be the simplest solution.

However, keeping these captives was an order from the North Prince, so the officers and soldiers did not comment further.

As soon as Yelv Nanyan and Xiao Wenyao descended from their carriage, the laboring Barbarian captives exploded into commotion upon seeing them.

“Princess… Princess!!!”

“Look, everyone, it’s the Princess!!!”

“What’s happening! Why is the Princess showing up in Yan County!!!”

“Could it be that our tribe has been annihilated by the North Prince and even the Princess has been captured by him!!!”

“No… it can’t be! The Princess is so wise; once she knew we were defeated, she would surely have moved the royal court immediately. How could the North Prince so easily find the specific location of our tribe!!!”

“That person cannot be the Princess!!!”

Seeing that the Barbarian captives could not believe the Princess of the Barbarian Tribe had come down from the carriage, a North City soldier looking after the captives sneered and said, “You probably don’t know yet, but your Princess has already agreed to marry our Prince. She is now our Prince’s woman.”

” What’s more, soon your Sky Wolf King tribe will be re-settled in North City. It’s only because our Prince is merciful. If it were someone else, they would have slaughtered all you barbarians long ago.”

Upon hearing the soldier’s words, the Barbarian captives were stunned.

How could their Princess choose to marry the North Prince? Had their royal court truly been located by the North Prince?

Without the Princess with the Sky Wolf King tribe, did the Sky Wolf King tribe still have a future?

For a moment, the mood among the Barbarian captives turned very somber, and the atmosphere at the scene was incredibly oppressive.

At this time, a guard from the Prince’s Mansion came before the captives, “Those from the Sky Wolf King tribe stay behind; everyone from the North Fre King tribe may leave now.”

Among these hundred thousand Barbarian captives, many were soldiers from the North Fre King tribe. Hearing the guard’s words, quite a few North Fre King tribe captives turned and left, and soon only those from the Sky Wolf King tribe remained on the scene.

By now, Yelv Nanyan, with a serene pace, approached the soldiers. Seeing not only the Princess but also the daughter of the Sky Wolf King, Xiao Wenyao, the soldiers had to accept reality.

It seemed that the royal court of the Sky Wolf King tribe had indeed been found by the North Prince, otherwise their Princess and Princess wouldn’t be here together.

At that moment, the Barbarian captives kneeled down one after another, saying, “Greetings, Princess!!!”

Witnessing this scene, Lu Chen felt somewhat moved, astonished by the high regard the Barbarian captives held for Yelv Nanyan. Indeed, capturing her had been the right decision.

Even if Yelv Nanyan had not been beautiful, without a ninety-grade beauty score, her strong political value made capturing her essentially the same as controlling the entire Sky Wolf King tribe.

Of course, it must be said that he was lucky; Yelv Nanyan was indeed beautiful, surpassing a score of ninety, and what mattered most was that Yelv Nanyan was still pure, exactly his type.

Yelv Nanyan, looking at the kneeling captives, felt a mix of emotions and sighed, “I am no longer a Princess. Stand up, everyone. Like you, I am but a prisoner.”

After hearing Yelv Nanyan’s words, the Barbarian captives still did not rise.

At this moment, one of the captives looked up and asked, “Princess, has the Sky Wolf King tribe really been annihilated by the North Prince?”

Yelv Nanyan replied, “The North Prince is merciful and has allowed the Sky Wolf King tribe to settle in North City. Your relatives will live in North City as citizens of Great Sum. In a sense, from now on, there will no longer be a Sky Wolf King tribe.”

After Yelv Nanyan said this, the Barbarian captives had a hard time believing it.

Weren’t they attacking North City to claim its lands?

Now that the North Prince had defeated them, not only did he refrain from destroying their royal court but also relocated their tribespeople to North City? Turning them into citizens of Great Sum?

Then, what was the point of their initial attack on North City?

Not only had they lost so many lives, but now they had also become captives, and their tribe was no more.

In the end, the blood of two hundred thousand men was spilled in a completely meaningless war.

At this moment, the Barbarian captives were silent, unsure of what to say.

Yelv Nanyan sighed softly, then continued, “The North Prince has asked me to tell you that you will labor in North City for ten years. If any of you perform well, the North Prince will allow you to visit home and may also offer you a chance to finish your labor early.”

“After the labor is over, whether you choose to stay in North City as citizens of Great Sum or return to the grasslands to continue a nomadic life, the decision will be yours to make.”

Hearing these words, the captives of the Barbarian Tribe each lifted their heads, visibly reinvigorated.

One of the soldiers then asked, “Princess, is what you are saying true? Can we really return home to see our families?”
