"Cough, cough …"

Tuoba Fei was currently attentively listening to the Xumi Army's report. What he cared the most about were the Xumi race's domesticated horses and their ultimate techniques.

The Xumi Army was a master in horse taming. If he could control a group of wild horses, he could easily subdue them. Not everyone had this kind of ability.

The Huns had to expend a great deal of effort to catch wild horses. Sometimes, they couldn't do as they wished. Many times, among the captured horses, many of them would run away. However, it was very difficult to capture a truly good horse. Even when dozens of people attacked at the same time, they might not be able to capture a good horse.

Hearing this cough, a trace of coldness and awkwardness flashed through the long and narrow eyes of the Xumi Army soldiers. It was a clan elder reminding him not to hand over all of his Xumi to others.

The tamed horses of the Xumi race, especially the Great Broad Ferghana Horse, were extremely secretive secrets. Although the Xumi race had no other choice but to submit to the Great Moon branch, the clan elders still didn't want to hand over all of their trump cards.

"Your highness, some of the fine horses are in the secret grounds, while others are in the secret grounds. These should naturally be left for Your highness's men to check on. Your servant believes that the secret grounds should not be abandoned, this place …"

Tuoba Fei's heart was filled with anger. As expected, these Sumeru clansmen had lived for far too long. Even now, they were still unwilling to submit to Xiao Yao from the bottom of their hearts.

He suddenly started laughing. A faint and cold smile appeared on his face as he leaned back against the chair. His eyes were abnormally bright, making people not dare to look straight at him.

Under Tuoba Fei's gaze, the elder who had spoken lowered his head and stopped talking.

"Kneel."

The Elder Sumeru's body couldn't help but tremble for a moment. With a plop, he kneeled on the ground, lowered his head, and touched his forehead to the ground.

At this moment, he understood that he had angered Prince Xian of the Left. He had an iron hand and a dignified demeanor. No one in the Huns knew it, and no one knew it.

"Twenty slaps on your own."

Tuoba Fei's tone was calm and indifferent, like a gentle breeze. However, there was an indescribable chill in his tone.

Xumi Qingfeng straightened his body and stole a glance at Tuoba Fei. A faint smile appeared on his handsome face, and his calm, waveless eyes faintly flashed with a cold light.

His heart could not help but beat faster. The Huns knew that he was not afraid of Prince Xian of the Left scolding him. He was only afraid of Prince Xian of the Left smiling calmly. Behind that smile, calmness was the call of death.

"Yes, your servant lost his composure, Your Highness, please calm your anger."

The Godly Mt. Xumi raised his hand and slapped his face.

"Pa, pa, pa …"

A clear and loud voice echoed in the hall. At this time, the men of the Great Moon Sect had long since taken control of the secret location and had tightly guarded the Sumeru Conclave.

Everyone lowered their heads even lower. Their hearts were in their mouths as they stole furtive glances at Tuoba Fei.

With a carefree and relaxed demeanor, Tuoba Fei didn't continue asking about the Xumi Army's horses. Instead, he lazily leaned against the chair and swept his gaze over everyone present.

In the Huns, the king was the highest existence, but the king could not decide everything within the clan. There were Elders within the clan. These Elders were all Royal Clans; they were the elders or brothers of the King.

Wang had to gather the elders for a discussion on an important matter.

The Xumi tribe was no exception. Although the power of the Xumi army was greater than most of the tribal kings, it was still related to the future of Xumi.

The elders didn't oppose surrendering to the Great Moon Sect because they understood that once the secret land was discovered, the Xumi Clan would fall into a truly desperate situation.

However, they were still unwilling to hand over their final secrets. They wanted to leave behind the power that could make a comeback in the future.

As a servant, even if his master were to grant him death, he still wouldn't be able to disobey.

"Sumeru Qingfeng, do you know your crime?"

Although his tone was as calm as the wind, Xumi Qingfeng and the rest knew that Prince Xian of the Left had been angered.

"Servant knows his sin."

Xumi Qingfeng kowtowed as he fell to the ground. He glanced at the Xumi Army and warned them that they had to think twice before revealing all of Xumi's hidden cards.

The Sumeru soldier indifferently lowered his head, his long and narrow eyes filled with a cold light. He had already sworn his loyalty to Tuoba Fei, so he didn't want to make any more stupid mistakes.

"Who is Prince Xian of the Left? Is it something an old man like you can do? Right now, my life is bestowed by the prince, everything I have is bestowed by the king, I have already pledged my allegiance to the king, and I will never regret it. Xumi, if you wish to establish your footing in the Western Regions, if you cannot sincerely serve your highness, do you think you will still be able to survive? "

The Xumi Army sneered. They were all idiots, why was Prince Xian of the Left being so lenient towards the Xumi race? It was all because of the Xumi race's outstanding skill in taming horses and their tamed horses.

If it was hidden, what weight would the Xumi Clan have in their hearts, just the Prince and Prince Xian of the Left?

Sumeru was just a small clan with over two thousand people. Without this ultimate skill, Prince Xian of the Left had long trampled the secret grounds and slaughtered every single one of them.

The Xumi Army was well aware of this point, and similarly, if Prince Xian of the Left was willing to kill him three times for the sake of saving a talent, then if he didn't know better and offended King Xian of the Left and provoked his patience, his death wouldn't mean much.

"Are you guilty? Tell me, what crime have you committed? "

Tuoba Fei's tone was still extremely calm. With a faint smile, he looked down at the kneeling Xumi Qingfeng. If anyone from the Xumi Clan dared to go against his orders, he would show no mercy.

"Xumi, you have been carefree and unrestrained for too many years, but now you have truly never bowed in submission. Very good, if you do not know of This King's ironclad methods, Sumeru will not truly be in This King's grasp! "

A hint of coldness flashed across his eyes as a faint killing intent emitted from his body.

Everyone's heart tightened. They could feel the cold killing intent radiating from Tuoba Fei's body.

"This servant shouldn't have not received the orders of the prince and reported in private. This servant knows his crimes."

"Is that all?"

The smile on Tuoba Fei's face grew wider as the crowd lowered their heads. The smile on Prince Xian of the Left grew increasingly wider, and the calmer his handsome face became, the more likely it was that those who offended him would suffer a fate worse than death.

Xumi Qingfeng was drenched in cold sweat as he knelt on the ground. His face was purple and swollen, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

"What crime do you think the Godly Mt. Xumi committed?"

Everyone lowered their heads even lower wherever Tuoba Fei's gaze landed.

"Your Highness, Xumi Qingfeng offended Your Highness, so he intentionally hid the truth. Damn it!"
