Chapter 884 - Celestial Princess

She divided the territory of the entire Celestial Tribe into five areas: Earth Area, Fire Area, Water Area, Wood Area, and Metal Area. Each area was under the jurisdiction of a marshal. Although there would be checks and balances between the marshals, they would cooperate with each other. As for Shan Xiong, he became the supreme commander second only to Ding Hao, the Celestial Master. In a sense, Shan Xiong was still prestigious, but his power has been segmented.

Li Lan did it for the sake of Ding Hao’s status.

She was not a woman with a strong desire for power. In fact, if it weren’t for her parents, she wouldn’t even care much about the position of the Sect Leader of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. The reason why this wise woman did it was that she didn’t want her husband’s hard-earned property to become someone else’s due to his laziness.

As Li Lan was launching a series of measures, Ding Hao’s prestige among the five areas of the Celestial Tribe was like the sun at high noon. No one dared to challenge him.

Even many children of the tribe had sworn loyalty to the Celestial Master in the first class of martial arts.

Under the influence of the adults, many children of the tribe knew that the rare peaceful life now was brought by the magical and great Celestial Master. If it weren’t for the Celestial Master, their mothers would have to take risks to pick herbs in the forest, and their fathers would have to risk their lives to go hunting and to fight with giant beasts. If it weren’t for the Celestial Master, their homeland might be invaded by giant beasts at any time, and their family would be ruined and all the members could be dead.

If it hadn’t been for the Celestial Master who was changing everything, perhaps one day, when the sun set, their mothers would not come back and would disappear forever. No one knew which beast had eaten their mothers and even the mothers’ bones could not be found. Maybe one day, when the hunting team came back, in addition to the rare prey, there would be a part of their fathers’ bodies that had been torn apart.

Death and destruction used to be the eternal theme in the Ocean Forest.

Countless people in the tribe were already used to such kind of life.

However, getting used to it did not mean that they would not be sad when losing their relatives and homeland.

The Celestial Master showed up like a legendary savior. He completely changed the tragic fate of the tribes and the children’s lives in various tribes. Now the children could practice martial arts at ease, with warm clothes to wear and enough food to eat.

When the children were cultivating under the sun, they would always remember that if it wasn’t for the Celestial Master, they couldn’t gain what they have now.

In their simple and firm concept, if they supported the Celestial Master, protected him and fought for him, they could protect everything hard-won and their parents didn’t need to risk their lives.

That idea started taking root and germinating in the hearts of the children. When they grew up, they would become the most powerful and loyal soldiers under Ding Hao’s command.

In front of the luxurious metal carriage, Shan Xiong and marshals and experts of the five areas were respectfully reporting the development of the tribe in the past six months.

Shan Xiong said excitedly, “For each of the five areas in the Celestial Tribe, in addition to the experts scattered in each tribe to guard the areas, there are more than ten thousand elite soldiers serving in the regular army with the average combat capability above the Martial King Realm. In the guard battalion especially selected for you, there are five hundred soldiers in the Martial Grand Emperor Realm and one hundred in the Sage Realm. They are the most loyal and elite soldiers selected from each area. They are willing to go through fire and boiling water and die ten thousand deaths to follow you, Celestial Master.”

Due to the improvement of the living environment of the areas in the tribe, people had more time to cultivate. In addition, with the secret support of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, many people had become new experts in the past half a year. Many of them had broken through the bottlenecks and become new experts in the Sage Realm of the Celestial Tribe.

Fortunately, these physical cultivation masters’ minds were extremely simple and clear-cut. Even the experts in the Sage Realm were not as arrogant and conceited as those on the Land of Infinity. That was the reason why the militarized management of the Celestial Tribe could be realized.

Hearing his words, Ding Hao was also a little shocked.

In merely half a year, the Celestial Tribe’s power had skyrocketed like a rolling snowball.

He didn’t expect that he would inadvertently create the majestic force. If they had top masters such as the God Realm Masters, they could completely defeat sects like the Divine Sword Sect, a major sect in the east of the Land of Divine Grace.

Jin Sanshun, the marshal of the Metal Area said excitedly, “Master, the armors and weapons have been steadily supplied by the Divine Sword Sect during this period of time. The army of the Celestial Tribe is already very powerful. Everyone can’t wait for your order to conquer the world and expand our territories!”

“That’s right, Celestial Master! We have reserved our strength for half a year and got well prepared. We are ready for another battle,” Earth Area’s marshal Lian Chengbi also said loudly.

“We are willing to fight for Celestial Master to the death without regrets.” The marshals of Water Area, Wood Area and Fire Area also felt their fighting desire increased.

Ding Hao’s eyes slowly swept across the faces of these loyal and brave warriors. He shook his head slightly and said, “To tell you the truth, my main purpose of forcing you to form the Celestial Tribe was to find my missing daughter and disciple with your assistance. Now that they have been found, my wish is fulfilled. I had intended to disband the Celestial Tribe and give you freedom.”

Before he had finished his words, Shan Xiong and others were all shocked.

“No! Celestial Master, we are willing to follow you.”

“Right, now that the Celestial Tribe is renowned everywhere. We finally get what we deserve and base ourselves somewhere in the Ocean Forest. These are all the gifts of you, Celestial Master. If the Celestial Tribe was disbanded, we would have to be at a distinct disadvantage again.”

“We beg Celestial Master to withdraw your order.”

Lie Yan, marshal of the Inferno Army said carelessly, “I, Lie Yan, am an old barbarian, and I refuse to obey anyone else. To be honest, in the beginning, I am not convinced by you, but I joined the Celestial Tribe for the survival of the Inferno Tribe. However, now the changes of each tribe have made me admire you from the bottom of my heart, Celestial Master. You care about the tribes instead of regarding us as tools and means for fighting, so I took over the responsibility of the Inferno Army. Celestial Master, you can’t leave us at this critical moment!”

Ding Hao smiled and said, “Listen to me, marshals. I had intended to disband the Celestial Tribe, but now seeing the state of the tribes, I think it may be a good thing. Therefore, I decide to continue to maintain such a situation. I hope everyone can continue to be united and give up the prejudices and contradictions between tribes. I am not a cruel or merciless person. You all treat me as your family, and I will never abandon you. If the Celestial Tribe is in trouble in the future, I will fight with you, and I will not regret it even if I die!”

His words were powerful and resonating.

All the tribe masters and marshals present were moved by Ding Hao’s heartfelt words.

“We are willing to sacrifice our lives for the Celestial Master by using the spiritual magic of the ancestors of the ancient tribe!”

The physical cultivators shouted one after another and made a blood oath.

Ding Hao also swore.

Ding Hao said with a smile, “Right now, the top priority for our Celestial Tribe is to conserve our strength. It’s not appropriate to go on an expedition now. I also don’t want to drag all the large tribes into the mire of war because of my appearance. Let’s not talk about the expedition for the time being. Everyone, please return to your areas and focus on training your troops and managing your tribe. If there’s anything you need, you can send people here to find me. I’ll help you settle it.”

“Long live Celestial Master!”

In the next month, Ding Hao patrolled within the jurisdiction of the Celestial Tribe.

Every time people of the tribe saw the eight ferocious golden metal dragons roaring in the sky, pulling the enormous luxurious metal carriage like the sun moving in the sky, they would respectfully bow and worship. It was their king patrolling.

Shan Xiong was leading the guard battalion of Celestial Master to protect Ding Hao.

It was indeed like the God on a tour with the majestic aura.

Wherever he passed by, all the tribes cheered. Surviving Species of the Untainted Land trembled in fear, and no forces dared to provoke him. It was a type of power that had already been formed, and it could not be provoked.

Under Li Lan’s careful arrangement, this patrol became a great opportunity for Ding Hao to win people’s hearts.

All kinds of resources transported from the Mountain Gate of Fortune were distributed by Ding Hao personally to each tribe, and they were welcomed with gratitude. In fact, Ding Hao preferred to be with those simple tribesmen in the forest. They were plain and direct, without the intricate schemes of foreign forces.

Little Tianshuang and Ren Woxing also followed Ding Hao.

Although these two little guys were smart, they were extremely kind and lively. They got along well with many children of tribes. In the eyes of many children of tribes, Ding Tianshuang was like a little fairy. She was delicate and beautiful like a person made of jade and was wearing beautiful clothes. They were all respectful and reverent to her.

Ding Tianshuang soon became the king of children.

This kind little girl was not stingy at all. She gave many of her treasures to those poor children in the tribe. She never lost her temper, and never looked down on those dirty tribe children. Not only did she win the affections of the children, but also many masters and experts admired her.

Sure enough, the descendant of the Celestial Master was as pure as fairies, both in terms of the appearance and the heart.

Children wouldn’t lie. Ding Tianshuang’s actions made more and more people respect and admire Ding Hao, which was something that Ding Hao didn’t expect.

Little Tianshuang was also respectfully addressed as Celestial Princess by countless people.

The little fat boy Ren Woxing was upstaged by the Celestial Princess, and he was regarded as Ding Tianshuang’s servant by countless people. Fortunately, the little fat boy was born to be easygoing, so he didn’t care about these things at all.

While cultivating and patrolling, Ding Hao traveled with his daughter and disciple in the great wilderness, feeling more relaxed and carefree than ever.
