121 Provocation
The speed of the main force’s advance was not slow to begin with, even in the night.
After about an hour, the main force had crossed the forest near the mine.
When the resource-rich mine appeared in front of everyone, Dugu’s expression changed slightly, and her eyes flashed with a look of ‘as expected’.
Once she saw the mine, she finally understood why Su Ming was so insistent on not giving up his territory.
If she were to occupy this mine, she would never give it to anyone else, nor would she give anyone a share.
When the Long Saber Guard saw this, his expression became a little complicated and he also looked a little regretful.
It was obvious that the Long Saber Guard was upset that he had missed the mine.
However, Su Ming did not intend to let them sigh for long.
Once he saw their expressions, Su Ming did not ask them to stay any longer. Instead, he brought them straight to the Elf Valley.
It was more convenient to walk on this road than the previous road from the Long Wild Tribe to the mine.
After speeding up a bit more, it only took them four hours to reach the town outside the Elf Valley.
Dugu’s eyes widened in shock as she saw the buildings of the town from afar.
The scene in front of her shocked her and made her unable to react.
The buildings in the town outside the Elf Valley and the buildings in their tribe were simply products of two different eras.
Their Long Wild Tribe seemed to still be living in the primitive era. Whether it was buildings or other things, they seemed extremely backward in front of the town outside the Elf Valley.
Once Su Ming led the group back to the town, he naturally attracted the attention of the other people in the town.
Before long, Dishan appeared in front of Su Ming with a face full of enthusiasm. His face was also filled with smiles.
“Great Prophet, you’re back?”
Su Ming cast him a glance and nodded his head. Then, he looked at the slightly messy clothes on his body.
Obviously, after hearing the news of his return to the tribe, Dishan had hurriedly climbed out of his bed and rushed over.
When he thought of this, Su Ming shook his head and said, “You don’t have to do this next time. You’re already asleep. Aren’t you tired of getting up like this?”
“The construction of our town still depends on you, don’t tire yourself out.”
Hearing this, Dishan scratched his head and said, “I can’t do that, Prophet. Since you’re back, I have to get up to welcome you even if I’m asleep.”
Su Ming patted him on the shoulder in slight resignation. He shook his head and did not try to persuade him any further.
Dugu, who was listening to the conversation between the two, was surprised.
She did not expect that Su Ming, who seemed to have a rather cold personality, would be so friendly in front of the people from her tribe.
Besides, judging by the others’ expressions, they seemed to have gotten used to Su Ming’s behavior.
This proved that Su Ming was not putting on an act, but that this was how he usually did things.
When Dugu thought of this, she looked at Su Ming’s back, and the curiosity in her eyes grew.
After Dishan finished his sentence, he let out a strange ‘huh’ and said, “That’s not right, Great Prophet. Why did you suddenly come back overnight?”
“Logically speaking, shouldn’t you still be fighting in the enemy’s tribe?”
“What’s wrong? Is the other party’s resistance very tenacious?”
When Su Ming heard that, he was slightly taken aback. Then, a faint smile appeared on his face. He shifted his feet slightly and let Dugu, who was behind him, appear before him.
Su Ming’s actions also attracted the attention of the other people in the field.
Under everyone’s gaze, Dugu’s expression clearly showed a touch of embarrassment.
Su Ming smiled and told them what had happened. when the people in the Elf Valley came to a realization, he continued, “So from now on, the Long Wild Tribe is our brother tribe.
”As for Clan Leader Dugu, she will be our friend in the future.”
After a slight pause, Su Ming cast a glance at Dishan, who was already fully awake, and said, “Since Chief Dishan doesn’t plan to sleep today, then let’s take Clan Leader Dugu to visit our Elf Valley’s weapon forging workshop.
“When Clan Leader Dugu came with us, he was very curious about our tribe.”
As soon as he heard this, Dishan was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and made an inviting gesture to Dugu.
“If that’s the case, please follow me, Clan Leader Dugu.”
Dugu squinted her eyes, but she quickly followed Dishan’s footsteps and walked toward a direction in the town.
After the town expanded, the forging workshop that belonged to the Dwarves was also moved from the Elf Valley to the town.
Su Ming could already foresee that as the town continued to develop and change, the Elf Valley would eventually become a residential area.
Apart from the most basic defense, there would be no military force or forging workshop.
Based on Su Ming’s plans for his Kingdom, there was a high possibility that the Elf Valley would become a hidden paradise in the capital of his kingdom.
Of course, this was just Su Ming’s initial thought.
If he really wanted to build a kingdom, he had to work hard.
Su Ming put away the complicated thoughts in his mind. Once he saw Dishan bring Dugu to the smithing workshop, he rode on Da Bai and headed into the inner parts of the valley.
As he rushed into the Elf Valley, Su Ming was also thinking about all sorts of things.
However, just as he was thinking, Mike suddenly flew to his side.
“Great Prophet.”
Su Ming was shocked by his sudden arrival, and he could not help but tremble.
Da Bai, who was sitting down, was also so shocked that he shivered. The Turtle in his arms lifted its head and looked at Su Ming in confusion.
Mike was also slightly taken aback. When he came to his senses, he quickly lowered his head and apologized to Su Ming.
“I’m sorry, Great Prophet.”
Su Ming waved his hand helplessly and said, “It’s fine, it’s fine. Do you have anything to say?”
When Mike heard that and saw that Su Ming really did not show any signs of anger, he let out a sigh of relief and said, “It’s like this, Great Prophet. On our way back, the guard next to the Dugu’s clan provoked our warriors.
“So I’m thinking, should I find an opportunity to teach him a lesson?”
