The fleet flew for another three days and encountered the problem of needing supplies again. This time they had enough Spirit Stone, but not enough living supplies on the ships.

The nine spaceships were crammed with more than 30,000 people. Except for the three ships equipped with intelligent weapon systems, which were less crowded, the other six were overcrowded, leaving little room for storing supplies. This was unavoidable.

This time, Chen Mu chose a commercial prefecture city that was slightly smaller than Falling Rosy Clouds City. During the descent, he encountered a similar scenario to that of Falling Rosy Clouds City.

However, this time the enemy's air defense force was even weaker than that of Falling Rosy Clouds City, and Chen Mu had strengthened the weapons on the spaceship during this period, so the air battle became one-sided.

The city lord begged for mercy and readily gave Chen Mu a large amount of supplies, so Chen Mu was only delayed there for more than an hour before flying back into the air to continue his journey to the Wilderness.

And so, the fleet flew for another half month before finally approaching the Wilderness.

However, Chen Mu did not intend to take the spaceships into the Wilderness. Even with his strength, it would not be easy to bring nine spaceships to Chen Village.

He contacted Kong Yu two days in advance and temporarily placed the nine spaceships in Wilderness Border City.

Wilderness Border City was just a county town and originally did not have a large enough spaceship parking plaza. However, with Kong Yu's persuasion of the Wilderness Border City Lord to cooperate, they eventually came up with a solution and parked all the spaceships there.

The Wilderness Border City, beside the spaceship's parking plaza.

The spaceship plaza, which was originally only three or four square kilometers, was now packed with nine large spaceships. There were also many building wrecks around it, indicating that many nearby buildings had been demolished to accommodate Chen Mu's spaceships.

At this moment, a large number of Yin Lineage were busy on the spaceship, unloading the Yin Lineage's supplies and loading them onto cargo wagons.

Chen Mu Muze, along with Yin Lineage executives, Kong Yu, and others, were gathered together, seemingly discussing something.

" Master Mu, you can rest assured that those transport ships are safe here. I will have them closely guarded and will ensure they are not damaged in any way."

The city lord of Wilderness Border City Wei Hengfan. His cultivation level is at the Early Stage of the Core Formation Realm, and his strength is considered average among the city lords of a county.

In recent years, with the rampage of Otherworldly Demon outside and the infighting among warlords inside, he, the lord of a small border town, has actually had an extremely difficult time.

Fortunately, Kong Yu was acquainted with Chen Mu and was able to purchase many high-quality and inexpensive weapons from Chen Mu. Kong Yu's Guard Sword Legion also achieved numerous feats, which greatly reduced his pressure.

Because of his connection with Kong Yu, he had a good impression of Chen Mu, and even after learning that Chen Village had defeated the coalition of the four high-level tribes, he considered joining Chen Mu's side.

However, Chen Village's territory had not yet expanded to Wilderness Border City, and he himself did not have the courage to openly betray the Haotian Empire. This matter could only be discussed later.

"Alright! Then I'll have to trouble Lord Wei."

Chen Mu cupped his hands in thanks to Wei Hengfan for his help.

He then turned to face Yin Guang.

"Master Yin Lineage, I have matters to attend to back in Chen Village, so I won't accompany you on the rest of the journey."

I will have my younger sister and the others stay here to guide you. After you have brought all your people to Chen Village, I will host a banquet to properly entertain you.

"Understood. Young Master Chen Mu has helped our clan out of its predicament and escorted it all the way. Our clan is eternally grateful for this kindness and virtue."

In the future, our clan will certainly serve you wholeheartedly and diligently.

Yin Guang said earnestly.

"Patriarch Yin Lineage, there's no need for that. I escorted you here this time only because of my friendship with Yin Zhan."

I welcome the Yin Lineage's willingness to submit to me, but I will not interfere if you have other plans.

I am on equal footing with Yin Zhan, and the head of the Yin Lineage is my elder. Even if you join Chen Village, we are just partners. You don't need to say you're working for me; we're just mutually beneficial."

Yin Guang was taken aback upon hearing this, then laughed after a long while.

"Haha, what a great cooperative relationship, mutually beneficial."

It is truly rare for someone as young as Chen Mu to possess such a broad mind!

"Very well, based on what Young Master Chen Mu said, my Yin Lineage will definitely move into Chen Village within half a month and officially become a part of Chen Village."

In fact, the Yin Lineage itself has four Core Formation Realm experts, while Chen Village only has Chen Mu and A Huo at the Core Formation Realm. On the surface, it doesn't seem like a good choice for the Yin Lineage to join forces with Chen Village.

But after spending more than a month with the people of Chen Village, Yin Guang has come to realize how unfathomable Chen Village is. Now he just wants to cling tightly to Chen Village's powerful backer and has no more hesitation.

"If Patriarch Yin Lineage is willing to do so, I would naturally welcome it."

Okay, I'm busy, so I won't keep you company any longer.

As everyone watched, Chen Mu took to the air, completely disregarding the no-fly zone rule in Wilderness Border City, and flew swiftly towards Chen Village.

Without any other people with him, Chen Mu, with his current strength, only took about half an hour to travel from Wilderness Border City to Chen Village.

As Chen Mu Mugang approached the territory of Chen Village tribe, his Divine Soul immediately took over Chen Village's central management system and obtained a large amount of information about the latest situation in Chen Village.

He digested the information briefly, then notified A Huo, Mingye, Chen Hongjie, and the others to come to the clan hall to discuss countermeasures.

Now that he was back in Chen Village, Chen Mu no longer needed to face the same restrictions as in other cities. He could use teleportation without any worries and arrived at the clan hall in just over ten breaths.

Chen Hongjie was already waiting there, along with Chen Jianfeng, an elder of Chen Village.

"Third Uncle, Elder Jianfeng."

Chen Mu appeared in the hall and greeted Chen Hongjie and Chen Jianfeng.

" A Mu, you're finally back. Sit down, we'll talk after everyone arrives."

Chen Hongjie beckoned Chen Mu to sit down.

Chen Mu didn't stand on ceremony and sat down in the seat to Chen Hongjie's right.

After a while, Mingye and A Huo arrived and sat down in the hall.

" Mingye, as you probably know, Xiaozhi discovered through big data analysis that the monsters in the south have been behaving strangely lately. Have you sent anyone to investigate?"

"Yes, I was just about to tell you this. Based on the current trend, there is a strong possibility that a beast tide is brewing nearby."

This change is clearly related to the Temple. The two messengers from the Temple have sent people to warn us several times, but the chieftain has brushed them off each time.

They have now threatened that if we do not hand over the Demon-Slaying Sword, they will unleash divine punishment to wipe us out.

The so-called divine punishment is probably just the destruction of us by a horde of monsters.

After Mingye explained, a brief silence fell over the scene.

Despite Chen Village's current dominance over the Wilderness tribes, compared to the endless monsters Wilderness the Wilderness, the humans there are but a drop in the ocean.

The monsters in the Wilderness are endless. If the Temple is truly determined to destroy Chen Village, it will be an extremely difficult battle.
