Chapter 591: The Great Leader 109
For those who sought refuge, Yan Shuangshuang was more than willing to accept them, yet the influx was overwhelming; within a year, the population soared by nearly a hundred thousand! Clearly, the Yanhuang Tribe had truly won people's hearts!
Though the population increased, so did the problems. The Paradise of the Yanhuang Tribe was vast, but it couldn't endlessly accommodate newcomers. While those who moved in were still living comfortably, the most important aspect of Paradise was its ability to raise animals.
If humans continue to reside in Paradise, one day they will encroach on the space needed for animal husbandry, something Yan Shuangshuang refused to see happen.
To prevent the population from overwhelming Paradise, Yan Shuangshuang devised a plan. The tribe boasted many warriors, whose capabilities were exceptional, and a few thousand living in one place could guarantee their safety.
Thus, Yan Shuangshuang decided to find suitable locations for living and planting, and have the people of the Yanhuang Tribe take various crops to establish daughter tribes outside.
Meanwhile, Paradise inside would become a safe haven for nurturing children and elders. Members from both the daughter tribes and the main tribe could send their children to be raised there until the age of ten, and visit them whenever they had spare time.
The elderly and disabled warriors and children in Paradise weren't entirely idle. Children learned knowledge while helping graze herbivores; disabled warriors and elders engaged in animal husbandry, gathering eggs, milking, and making curd cheeses.
Time swiftly passed, and ten years went by. Yan Shuangshuang had already broken through to the legendary Sixth-level Warrior, moving toward the unknown Seventh-level Warrior. Meanwhile, the dream city of her tribe was completed, even surpassing expectations.
The daughter tribes of Yanhuang sprawled across vast lands, cultivating crops, hunting, and cultivating.
They feared no danger, knowing that their children, their future, had been well arranged by the tribe, and their children were extremely safe. Even if they grew old or disabled, they still had value to the tribe.
The Yanhuang Tribe's population now reached a million! In this perilous Primitive World, such a figure is miraculous! The Yanhuang Tribe could no longer be described merely as a Super Tribe; the extent of its territorial ruling could only be likened to a nation.
In this Primitive World, the Yanhuang Tribe had become the undisputed leader. No Super Tribe could compare, even as they imitated the Yanhuang Tribe to recruit middle and small tribes, few were willing to join.
Despite its size, the Yanhuang Tribe kept growing, for many middle and small tribes still traveled thousands of miles to join. Yanhuang welcomed all, making it easy for Yan Shuangshuang to lead as one might an emperor.
Yet, Yan Shuangshuang preferred the term 'tribe' over 'country', enjoying how people affectionately and respectfully called her the Great Leader over proclaiming herself emperor.
The Yanhuang Tribe's development was consistently positive, initially relying on external tribes to grow its population. Gradually, with lowered child mortality rates in the tribe, its population began to grow on its own.
Yan Shuangshuang had survived in this world for centuries, personally shepherding the birth of a legendary tribe with vast territorial holdings, encompassing countless mountains, forests, and seas.
The tribe had a huge population, living separately yet supporting one another, always proud to be part of the Yanhuang Tribe. The object of their deepest admiration was not a god, but their Great Leader, the legendary Yan Shuangshuang!
Inside the Flower Sea Space, several golden dragons intertwined with thick purple beams, spiraling as they charged towards a girl shrouded in black mist!
The immense power of the golden dragons and purple beams crackled upon contacting the black mist on the girl. Soon enough, they burned away all the black mist, revealing the girl's true form.
But the black mist seemed to originate from within the girl; although the outer black mist was cleansed by the golden dragons and purple beams, black mist continued to pour out from within her.
The golden dragons and purple beams battled the black mist, neither side conceding, but as time dragged on, both began to dim.
Yet, the black mist held more tenacity; the golden dragons and purple beams dissipated, while the black mist stubbornly persisted.
However, thanks to the cleansing by the golden dragons and purple beams, the black mist had thinned significantly, no longer wrapping the girl in a pitch-black cocoon, resembling fog lightly swirling around her, making her shape faintly visible.
After the golden dragons and purple beams faded, a man and woman dressed lavishly gazed at the girl's barely visible image, faces lit with joy.
The woman reached out, gently touching the girl's face, joyful as she spoke, "Opening a civilized society, enlightening living spirits indeed brings the greatest merit. Amazingly, so many are devotedly offering faith to Shuangshuang, endowing her with immense belief power that cleansed most of the Demon Thought from her! It seems our Shuangshuang will recover very soon!" the woman said, nearly moved to tears.
The man beside her couldn't hide his joy, "Our Shuangshuang is inherently the best and most outstanding; no schemer could ever impede her path."
"However, Shuangshuang was indeed tricked under circumstances this time; a tribulation that grew naturally, and we couldn't help. Whether Shuangshuang can overcome this tribulation is uncertain," the woman spoke with worried joy.
The man's brow furrowed but soon relaxed, saying calmly, "Don't worry; before, Shuangshuang was entangled in Demon Thought, making her prone to calamity. Now that most of it has been cleared, she should be able to overcome it, unlikely to fall into tribulations again easily."
Despite his words, the man's hidden hand clenched tightly, betraying his lack of the calm he expressed.
The woman didn't notice the man's tension, and instead sighed, withdrawing their daughter's true form, "This time, we cannot help her directly. We must send Shuangshuang into reincarnation; whether she still clings to her past is unknown. If her obsession persists, this rebirth will be dangerous, as many great powers have failed to pass such tribulations."
After her worries shifted, the woman's tone turned sharp, carrying a fierce edge, "If Shuangshuang's reincarnation fails, no matter what, I will imprison that scoundrel in the Extreme Darkness Abyss, ensuring he suffers eternally without release!"
The man remained silent, wrapping the woman with his arm, reassuringly patting her shoulder, showing he would always support her.
