Above the Galaxy

Chapter 534: Enemy Attack!


Tang Fei is not a pretentious man.

Since they repeatedly requested, he couldn't disappoint them by sending them away.

Hard to decline sincere enthusiasm.

Besides, he also needed this position...

So, Tang Fei looked at Little Fatty and said: "Bo Gu is both the leader of the Barbarian clan and your uncle... He has exhausted his mind and energy for the Barbarian clan, sacrificed too much, and still doesn't have a wife even now."

"As Batur's son, a member of the Barbarians, you should also take on the responsibility of revitalizing the Barbarian clan..."

After hearing Tang Fei's words, Bo Gu felt warm-hearted.

Tang Fei understands him, knows his hardships and tears...

But he couldn't help correcting, "I have a woman."

"Ah? Do you? Didn't you say you don't have one yesterday?"

"The Clan Leader can randomly designate women of the clan to sleep with, without needing to marry."

"Ah?" Tang Fei was stunned for a moment, then said: "What kind of outdated custom is this?"

He then said to Little Fatty: "You must not do such things."

Little Fatty's face turned red, shook his head vigorously, and said: "Big brother, I won't... I don't like Barbarian women."

On the way, Little Fatty also encountered quite a few Barbarian women.

Those women were coarse and strong, with dark skin, looking more 'manly' than him.

Standing with those Barbarian women, Little Fatty seemed rather soft-skinned and delicate.

Besides, he had lived in Phoenix City for many years and was long accustomed to... the aesthetics of the Empire's citizens.

He truly couldn't appreciate Barbarian women.

"Hmm." Tang Fei nodded and said: "When you become the Clan Leader, you must abolish this outdated custom."

Isn't this just like those evil Western worlds?

Nobles claim the right of the first night... sleeping with someone else's bride first?

"The young general may not know..." Bo Gu quickly explained: "We Barbarians are the original residents of Dushan, and have always been free and open, unbounded... Back then, everyone could freely love and sleep together..."

"After your father, General Tang Li came, and told us it wasn't good, our Barbarian clan indeed abandoned such... wild and open marriage concepts."

"General Tang Li sent many cultured people to help us, to teach us how to learn, how to live... he even helped us build houses, grow crops, and make food."

"Houses?" Tang Fei asked.

He had traveled around the Dushan Region for a long time; apart from the boundless desert, where were the traces of houses?

"Originally, many houses were built here, and a reservoir was constructed on Dushan, bringing water sources... Bo Gu pointed to the top of the cave, his expression painful as he said: "Those despicable Phoenix people dropped powerful bombs above, intending to kill us..."

"In one night, all the houses collapsed, all the water sources dried up... Now it's impossible to live and reside on the desert. We have no choice but to live inside this cave."

"..."

Upon hearing Bo Gu's account, Phoenix's face turned ashen; she knew full well the appalling story that happened here.

Back then, the Zhong Royal Family and Shen Family wanted to completely eradicate the Tang Family and the loyal Direct Lineage Army, conducting one round after another of purging.

The Barbarians in Dushan were especially crucial; after their leader was killed, the Barbarians went insanely attacking for revenge.

The envoys sent by the Empire were directly killed by them, with the heads even sent to the foot of Dushan.

The Empire, overwhelmed by the issue, wanted to solve it once and for all.

A few 'Satan' level energy bullets were launched, leveling the Dushan Region...

No, turning it into a desert.

Even now, nearly no grass grows.

The houses vanished, the water sources dried up, the terrain underwent dramatic changes, and the environment became increasingly harsh...

So, these Barbarians could only hide and survive in the cave.

Back then, Phoenix wasn't born yet. When she grew older, she searched for the truth through books or the gaps in the network.

At that time, she shared the same thoughts as all Empire citizens: the Barbarians were bad, uncultured, man-eating, and wanted to invade us...

Killing them was a move of justice, bombing was also an act of justice.

Now, she knew the truth.

She knew what ugly role the Zhong Royal Family had played in this.

Tang Fei saw Phoenix's unsightly expression and understood her thoughts, gently patting her hand to comfort her.

She wasn't even born yet... and need not be responsible for this matter.

Phoenix nodded to him, indicating she was fine.

Lu Siyu caught a glimpse of the minor interaction between Tang Fei and Phoenix, immediately moving her gaze away.

Bo Gu, rough around the edges, didn't notice the peculiar expression and eye contact between Tang Fei, Phoenix, and others, continuing to narrate the Barbarian clan's history of suffering: "Our Barbarian clan also experienced a few good years, because General Tang Li truly helped us... He took our clan members out to establish achievements, and allowed many capable people to come live with us in the Barbarian clan."

"Later, General Tang Li was assassinated, and the clan members of the three camps died tragically... then came the bombing... our days started to turn bad."

"At that time, the clan had only women, no men... For the continuation and survival of the Barbarian clan, we were forced to restore the ancient system..."

"Everyone could freely love and sleep together... As long as they could bear children for the Barbarian clan, they were benefactors of our Barbarian clan..."

"..."

Now, it was Tang Fei's turn to remain silent for a long time.

At the edge of life and death, the three cardinal guides and five constant virtues are insignificant.

When a clan is facing extermination, requiring them to hold onto ethics... it's unrealistic.
