Chapter 2968: Friend, I'll take you to get treatment
"You want to kill me?"
The Third Elder's eyes widened, looking with shock and anger at this Barbarian God Tribe Clan Chief.
In response, the Barbarian God Tribe Clan Chief said, his smile undiminished.
"That's about what it means."
"About the same? Then why, didn't we agree on this before?"
Besides shock and anger, the Third Elder was now filled with doubt; he couldn't understand why, after saying things were fine earlier, the Human Race and Barbarian God Tribe would suddenly change their minds.
Cooperating with him would bring only benefits and no drawbacks to the Barbarian God Tribe; moreover, he offered such generous terms—there's no reason for them to regret it.
Yet the Human Race and Barbarian God Tribe did regret it—why, what happened in between?
The Third Elder just couldn't figure it out, and the Barbarian God Tribe Clan Chief offered no explanation, merely saying offhand.
"You're practically a dead man—why worry about all this? Just rest easy and go."
"You……………………"
Upon hearing that, the Third Elder's eyes widened as he stared fixedly at the Barbarian God Tribe Clan Chief.
The other party didn't say more, evidently also losing patience; explaining this would be complicated, couldn't be clarified in a moment, and besides, what's the point of saying so much to a dying person—could there be any follow-up?
Thinking this, the Barbarian God Tribe Clan Chief immediately struck.
The Third Elder still wanted to resist, but his severe injuries were no longer enough to support fighting.
Although they exchanged a few moves, since there was no one around here and the not‑far battlefield already had various clash of aftereffects, their fight didn't draw anyone else's attention.
Thus, outsiders would not know what happened here.
In just a few moves, the Third Elder suffered more injuries, could no longer hold on, and was finally taken down by the Barbarian God Tribe Clan Chief.
Even in death, the Third Elder's eyes were wide with anger, full of reluctance and doubt.
Looking at the Third Elder who died with eyes unclosed, the Barbarian God Tribe Clan Chief didn't care, letting out a cold laugh and saying.
"I fought all my life, only now realizing I never understood anything at all."
Under normal circumstances, given the Barbarian God Tribe Clan Chief's strength, he wouldn't have full confidence in killing the Third Elder.
Their strengths were not far apart, so the likely outcome would be mutual heavy losses.
But this time, after hearing Hong Zun's words, although at first it really was a bit dirty, given the Barbarian God Tribe's nature, it was truly hard to accept.
But now, having so easily slain the Third Elder and looking at his corpse, the Barbarian God Tribe Clan Chief felt everything was normal again.
Since he could easily kill the opponent, there was naturally no need to desperately struggle.
Look at this Third Elder—doesn't he die peacefully now?
If they hadn't listened to Hong Zun, they would have rushed out immediately, and now they probably still couldn't kill the Third Elder.
Moreover, they themselves would likely end up heavily wounded.
Thinking this, the Barbarian God Tribe Clan Chief couldn't help secretly admiring Hong Zun—his strength may be lacking, but his scheming is quite slick.
The Third Elder died; on the other side of the battlefield, as numerous Barbarian God Tribe strongs surged in, the Grand Elder's lineage naturally suffered successive defeats.
The many Barbarian God Tribe strongs did not attack the Third Elder's lineage—this was also one of Hong Zun's plans.
At first glance, these Barbarian God Tribe members seemed truly to have come to aid the Third Elder's lineage.
At least the Grand Elder's lineage thought so; otherwise, why would these barbarians only strike them and never the Third Elder's lineage?
This clearly shows the two sides are working together.
Even many of the Third Elder's lineage didn't notice the problem, after all they didn't think as much as the Third Elder.
They were already struggling to hold on, about to be slain on the spot and face death and dao extinction; now, as allies, the Barbarian God Tribe suddenly attacked—how could they not be stirred?
Some of the Third Elder's lineage, their battle spirit soaring, shouted at the Barbarian God Tribe.
"Why did you come only now?"
Huh???
Upon hearing that, even the Barbarian God Tribe themselves felt a bit foolish—it's not right for you to ask me this question.
But on the surface they casually replied.
"Delayed on the way."
Seeing this, someone from the Third Elder's lineage added.
"Forget it, let's all attack—kill him first, then talk."
Huh???
These guys are really…………………… I don't even know how to describe them—didn't they notice any problem at all?
But the Third Elder's lineage being like this is, for the Barbarian God Tribe, actually good news—after all, stupidity is kinda cute.
For a time, the Barbarian God Tribe and the Third Elder's lineage joined forces, indeed beating the Grand Elder's lineage into successive retreats, instantly reversing the situation.
However, the Barbarian God Tribe's goal wasn't this; they wanted to eliminate both the Grand Elder's and Third Elder's lineages.
Thus, merely attacking the Grand Elder's lineage wouldn't be enough; the Third Elder's lineage also couldn't be spared.
Watching the opposing Grand Elder's lineage, they were either killed on the spot or seriously wounded, their strength reduced to a tenth.
A Barbarian God Tribe strong turned his head and smiled at the Third Elder's lineage.
"Your injury isn't light."
"It's fine, just some superficial wounds—your arrival is enough."
In response, the Third Elder's lineage appeared completely unconcerned; as long as they could win, this minor injury would surely heal in time.
But the next second, those Barbarian God Tribe strongs expressed concern.
"How can that be? This injury needs to be controlled quickly—come on, I'll take you to get treatment."
"I'm fine."
"Rest assured, look—the situation is already settled; staying would be of little use, better to come with me for treatment, lest you injure your foundation and cause trouble."
Under the Barbarian God Tribe strong ones' repeated invitations of "friend, I'll take you to heal your wounds," the Third Elder's faction looked over the battlefield and, in the end, silently nodded in agreement.
After all, as these Barbarian God Tribe strong ones said, with their joining the battle situation has indeed been completely reversed, and moreover, the Grand Elder's faction basically has no strength left to turn the tide unless they also have outside help.
Since the overall situation is already decided, staying behind would be of little use; it's better to obey and go heal wounds first.
Then, even if something changes, we'll be able to respond more calmly.
Thinking this through, the Third Elder's faction then nodded and agreed.
There was no doubt, so naturally they wouldn't be overly cautious; besides, the injuries were indeed severe, leaving no reason to refuse.
For a moment, pairs of the Third Elder's faction left the battlefield together with the Barbarian God Tribe.
At first glance, it appeared they were simply supporting each other along the way, with nothing amiss visible; indeed, it really seemed they were taking them to heal wounds.
As for the Grand Elder's faction, they could only shout angrily, but were utterly powerless to change anything, forced to watch helplessly as their own side's people were continually cut down, dying on the spot.
