Chapter 492: The Body is Very Honest
As the matter of Xu Qing suppressing the Miling tribe spread, not only did his reputation rise, but the supply of materials from various tribes was also significantly smoother than before, and at this moment, no tribe dared to quote high prices again.
After all, the human race had not fallen yet.
After all, Xu Qing possessed the power to extinguish a tribe.
As such, the smoothness of material collection was only natural.
"The Shuiming tribe provided 180,000 Sea Xiang Linger healing elixirs and three war magic treasures."
"The Ting'er tribe sold 130,000 drops of tribesmen's blood. This blood contains medicinal properties and can suppress severe injuries in a short time. They also provided one war magic treasure."
"The Ghost Workshop provided elixirs free of charge and is even willing to provide ghost soldiers to the battlefield, with the requirement that they be allowed to collect the Sheng Lan souls on the battlefield."
"And the Miling tribe, this tribe also voluntarily sent one million good-quality elixirs, asking for nothing."
Qing Qiu's heart surged with waves as she reported the information she had summarized over these three days to Xu Qing. She could feel the wariness of various tribes in Fenghai County toward what Xu Qing had done before.
As a Sword-Wielder, Qing Qiu was clear about the philosophy of the Sword-Wielding Palace, especially after being arranged by Xu Qing to the Book-Ordering Division after the war, which allowed her overall view to expand a lot, and she received rare training.
All of this made her understand that what Xu Qing did this time was actually what the Palace Master wanted to do at the beginning.
It was just that the timing was different, and the difficulty was also different. For example, when there was no war before, all parties were checking and balancing each other. Once this was done, it would definitely cause a backlash, and the Sheng Lan tribe was eyeing them covetously, so it couldn't be done.
As for the war stage, it was the same. One move affected the whole situation. The situation was complex and involved many factors. It was like interlocking teeth, like a quagmire. Once they rushed in and affected the war situation, there would be a great disaster.
Only in the current situation, while the front line was tight, and some tribes' powerhouses were tied to the battlefield, could they truly cut off all bonds and act decisively.
Of course, the premise was that they needed to possess the strength to crush everything and the cultivation qualifications to negotiate on equal terms with strong tribes.
This kind of game of standing on the shoulders of giants seemed simple, but the requirements for the executor were very high. Not only did they need firm determination, but they also needed to be ruthless and bold, and they also needed to be crazy enough but not lose reason and calmness. They needed to cleverly give others a step down, and while calling for offense as defense, they also needed to use the technique of advancing by retreating.
Qing Qiu glanced at Xu Qing quickly. Even though she hated this person in her heart, she still felt admiration in her heart at this moment.
"The measure of this, not something ordinary people can do. If it were me, determination, ruthlessness, and madness would be possessed, but how to grasp the measure, calm judgment, rational negotiation—I am not as good as him."
Xu Qing didn't know what Qing Qiu was thinking at this moment. He looked thoughtful, pondered in his heart, and responded slowly.
"The Miling tribe's elixirs are not enough. What I saw in their tribe is definitely not just this. Let them take out some more, but don't over-squeeze them. Now is not the time. So, for the subsequent ones, we will go to buy them. As for the Ghost Workshop's, I agree in principle, but tell them that it still needs the Palace Master's confirmation, so let them arrange for the ghost soldiers to go to the battlefield first and communicate with the Palace Master."
"Then, all the supplies from the tribes must be delivered to the capital within three days. We will unify the delivery to the battlefield from here. As for the finances, after they deliver the supplies, they can go find the Commandant." Following Xu Qing's instructions, Qing Qiu nodded in agreement. Just as he was about to withdraw, Xiang Ningyan arrived at the Secretariat at high speed.
"Report to the Book-Ordering official!" Xu Qing looked at Xiang Ningyan. Regarding Xu Qing's gaze, Xiang Ningyan instinctively trembled, stood straight, and spoke loudly.
"The Wood Xiang Linger tribe envoy is visiting, requesting to see the Book-Ordering official." Almost at the same time Xiang Ningyan spoke, Xu Qing's transmission jade slip vibrated. Xu Qing took it out and scanned it with divine sense, and the voice of the old man Ban Quanlu resounded in his mind.
"Xu Qing, I am bringing the second wave of the Wood Xiang Linger tribe to fight for the human race!" Xu Qing was moved and immediately stood up to walk out, personally welcoming them. The Wood Xiang Linger tribe was an ally of the human race. Before, when the Palace Master recruited troops, they had sent a team of tribesmen to go to the northern battlefield with the coalition forces.
Now, this tribe, which was not very large, had sent a second wave of reinforcements. This was the first time it had happened in the defense war of the entire Fenghai County.
Soon, outside the Sword-Wielding Palace hall, Xu Qing saw the old man Ban Quanlu standing there, and behind him were thousands of Wood Xiang Linger tribesmen floating in mid-air.
Their tree-like figures were very strong, radiating an extraordinary aura. Naturally, they were all elites.
Beside the old man Ban Quanlu, there was another old man.
This old man was also a tree person. His face was vicissitudes and revealed wisdom, and there were extraordinary fluctuations radiating from his body. Measuring it, there were thousands of Dao traces, exactly the Void-Returning stage.
"Xu Qing, this is the Great Elder of the Wood Xiang Linger tribe." The old man Ban Quanlu saw Xu Qing and hurriedly spoke.
Xu Qing walked over rapidly and cupped his fists in a bow. "I have seen the Wood Xiang Linger Great Elder, many thanks for the support!"
"Book-Ordering official Xu, don't be so polite. You are already the Xiang Linger Venerable of my tribe. In terms of status, you are equal to the patriarch of my tribe. Moreover, the human race has protected my tribe for many years, so my Wood Xiang Linger tribe naturally wants to know kindness and repay kindness. Before, the old man was in seclusion and about to break through, and was fortunate to be allowed by the Sword-Wielding Palace Palace Master to be exempted from conscription. Now that the breakthrough is complete, how can the old man stay alone."
Xu Qing didn't know what a Xiang Linger Venerable was, but he thought it must be related to Linger, so he bowed again and immediately ordered people to entertain and settle them, agreeing to send the supplies of various tribes to the western war zone and deliver them to the Palace Master in three days.
The Wood Xiang Linger tribe was gentle by nature, and this Great Elder did not look down on Xu Qing because of his own cultivation. On one hand, it was because of Linger, and on the other hand, it was Xu Qing's status in the Sword-Wielding Palace now.
More importantly, he knew very well that this young man before him could only be befriended and not offended.
Before coming, he had also heard about everything about the Miling tribe and knew about Xu Qing's negotiation with the Near-Immortal race, so he saw very clearly that Xu Qing had solved the material problem now, which was a great help to the front line, and this in itself was a huge war merit.
If the other party could also solve the troop problem, then after the two merits were superimposed, the magnitude of this merit could make the other party's power in the Fenghai County Sword-Wielding Palace astonishing.
The premise was that the human race finally won, and his Wood Xiang Linger tribe's two waves of support could be said to be betting their entire tribe, betting that the human race would win this battle, betting that the future of Fenghai County would still be in the hands of the human race.
Once they won the bet, they could ensure that the Wood Xiang Linger tribe would be safe for the next thousand years, and with Xu Qing's layer of relationship, it was not impossible for the Wood Xiang Linger tribe to go up another level.
So for Xu Qing's arrangement, this Wood Xiang Linger tribe Great Elder had no objections. He knew that the Holy Xiang Linger Protector and the Xiang Linger Venerable still had things to discuss, so he took his leave. After he left, the old man Ban Quanlu looked Xu Qing up and down a few times, satisfaction appearing in his expression, but he didn't seem to want to reveal his true thoughts, so he quickly put away the satisfaction and 'coughed'.
"The reason why the Wood Xiang Linger tribe came here, although it is related to their desire to bet, Linger's merit is very great!"
"Yes, Linger is still in seclusion?" Xu Qing nodded.
"It will take some time. This creation is very important for Linger and needs to be digested for a long time." After the old man Ban Quanlu finished speaking, he didn't know what to say, and Xu Qing was not good at chatting with people, constantly dealing with official business.
So after a while, the old man Ban Quanlu coughed again, "That, you don't have anything else to ask?"
Xu Qing was surprised and looked at the old man.
"For example, Linger's past, for example, the creation she obtained, what can be changed, for example, has she woken up occasionally during this time? Don't you ask?" The old man Ban Quanlu was a bit dissatisfied.
Xu Qing frowned, "Why should I ask you about these things? I will ask Linger directly."
"Uh" The old man Ban Quanlu opened his mouth to refute, but after thinking carefully, it seemed that it was indeed the case. However, some emotions still rose in his heart. After Xu Qing's gaze swept over, he noticed the other party's emotions.
He was very familiar with this kind of thing; the Captain was always like this, so he looked into the old man's eyes and spoke earnestly.
"Wood Xiang Linger tribe, I actually can't fully trust them. The escort of supplies is of great importance. I hope Senior will pay more attention to ensure that there is no problem when accompanying them. Now in this capital, the only one I can trust is you, Senior."
The old man Ban Quanlu was satisfied when he heard this, "Haha, don't worry," he laughed back and spoke proudly: "After the supplies arrive, I will personally take action to unfold the life-essence method to seal them heavily. I will also go all out to watch them on the road, so there will be no mistakes!"
Xu Qing cupped his fists and bowed deeply.
Seeing Xu Qing like this, the old man felt incomparably happy in his heart. He felt that this Xu kid knew how to respect him very well, and he was not so annoying.
Three days passed, and the alien materials were delivered on schedule. Finally, under Xu Qing's gaze, the Wood Xiang Linger tribe and the old man's party escorted the supplies to the western battlefield.
Although most of the areas on this road could use teleportation arrays, there were still some ranges that could not be teleported due to various reasons. The overall time required was about five or six days.
After seeing off the Wood Xiang Linger tribe, Xu Qing stood on the edge of the Sword-Wielding Palace's stone slabs, looking at the world.
Behind him were Xiang Ningyan, Qing Qiu, and a group of Sword-Wielders from the Book-Ordering Division. Looking at Xu Qing, most of them had deep respect in their eyes.
Especially Qing Qiu, who had various emotions rising in her heart, trying to suppress her respect for Xu Qing. The sickle she carried on her shoulder sighed faintly in her heart.
"Ah Qiu, don't resist anymore. I have already felt the struggle in your heart. What else are you not convinced about? Bowing to the great, handsome, and peerless Book-Ordering official Xu is not a normal choice."
"Shut up! Ever since you knew that there is also an artifact spirit beside Xu Qing who can hear your words, and after being captured at the Ten-Intestine Tree, you started talking like this. Disgusting, isn't it!"
"Didn't you, who used to say 'let's die together' in every sentence, die?" Qing Qiu sneered in her heart. "How can a disgusting person like you understand my thoughts? I, Qing Qiu, will never bow and submit to others easily like you!"
"This Xu Qing, the same is true!" Xu Qing naturally didn't know Qing Qiu's thoughts.
It was early morning now, and the refreshing wind blew, lifting Xu Qing's long hair. He stood on the bluestone slab at the edge of the Sword-Wielding Palace, looking at the world for a long time, closing his eyes and pondering.
During this time, he had been thinking about a problem. How to provide troops for the battlefield, not just the few thousand people of the Wood Xiang Linger tribe, which was not enough for the front line.
This was a protracted war. Facing the Sheng Lan Great Domain, whose size far exceeded Fenghai County, even with the resistance of all the taboo magic treasures of Fenghai County, casualties still appeared at all times.
And supplies could only make the front line less tight, but to maintain the cycle, the demand for troops was even greater.
After a while, Xu Qing suddenly spoke.
"Qing Qiu."
"Ah, here." Qing Qiu was constantly reprimanding the sickle in her heart, despising its heart full of arrogance. Now hearing Xu Qing's voice, her body couldn't help but tremble, and she hurriedly took a step forward, standing straight.
"Organize all the information about the Corpse Prohibition in the two prefectures of Quzhao Prefecture and Yinghuang Prefecture for me within a stick of incense." Xu Qing looked calm, looking at the direction of Yinghuang Prefecture, and spoke.
"Follow the decree! Guarantee the completion of the task within a stick of incense!" Qing Qiu puffed out her chest and spoke loudly instinctively, her voice full of excitement, just like when she faced her own Palace Master in the past.
"Who said just now that they would never submit?" The only sentence transmitted faintly from the sickle in her heart.
"Shut up, I am just being hypocritical, I am doing this for the front-line battlefield!" Qing Qiu reacted and immediately scolded in her heart.
"Still not going?" Xu Qing saw that Qing Qiu was still standing there.
"Yes!" Qing Qiu's posture was upright, she spoke loudly instinctively again, and left rapidly.
