Very Pure and Ambiguous: The Prequel

If someone surrendered to them, they were allowed to join the Dark Tribe. If someone refused to surrender, however, they would be completely massacred! At this time, Liu Kesheng was smug about how he was the law of the world, the supreme authority!

So, like that, all the southern tribes had been annexed by the Dark Tribe in just a few months! This lead to Liu Kesheng’s strength rising to a new height!

From the initial 100 some people to the 1000 plus people, the Dark Tribe had now developed into a tribe of tens of thousands of people!

To the primitive people, everyone around was their family now as they didn’t have a concept of territory. But Liu Kesheng was different. As someone who came from a much modern society, so he attached great importance to the issue of borders. So whenever his armies conquered some land, he would have a map drawn with the borders that he hung behind his throne!

Right now, Liu Kesheng was feeling like he was some great man who had opened the gates to a new territory. This gave him a sense of pride, making him feel as if the world was at his feet!

“Your Excellency, there are some people outside the tribe. They claim that they are from the Xixi Tribe!” A Dark Commando arrived to notify him.

Liu Kesheng immediately recovered from his fantasy world, “Xixi Tribe? I have never heard of them. What do they want?”

“Your Excellency, the Xixi Tribe is one of the largest tribes in the north!” The soldier said, “Their Patriarch, Lowell, says that he wants to submit to Your Excellency!”

“Sumit to me?” After Liu Kesheng heard his words, he smiled and said, “Good, bring that Lowell in here first!”

As the Dark Tribe’s reputation soared, there would be a lot of tribes every month coming to submit before him. Those people that submitted to the Dark Tribe on their own, Liu Kesheng made sure to give them good treatment. All the members of those tribes were taken into the Dark Tribe and given the same treatment as the rest of the tribe. As for the physically strong ones, they also had the chance of getting selected into the army!

It must be known that being a soldier was a matter of great honor! Whoever said that a son wouldn’t follow in his father’s path and become a soldier said wrong. At least, in the Dark Tribe, everyone wanted to be a soldier! Not only would they be able to get a good house to live, but the meals they got were also of a much higher quality because the army got priority in getting the supplies!

Whenever there was a hunt, the army got the game first! This was a system that Liu Kesheng formulated, so he wasn’t worried that his soldiers will betray him! With this system, it was difficult to keep the Dark Tribe’s strength from increasing.

Lowell was soon brought into the palace of the Dark Tribe. Along the way, Lowell kept on looking left and right. And the moment he saw the palace, he was shocked! It looked like the Grand View Gardens that Granny Liu visited; that was only if Lowell knew who Granny Liu was.

The Temple of Darkness was built in a mountain hillside. There was a naturally occurring cave that Liu Kesheng had redesigned using modern designs and blueprints, letting his Dark Tribe’s mature labor force do the construction.

Moreover, Liu Kesheng was the one who proposed the concept of currency, also issuing the first currency of this world, the Dark Stone. With that, everyone was paid according to the work they put into the construction, giving them the ability to exchange for food and goods.

When there was no war going on, Liu Kesheng used the Dark Tribe’s army has his free labor force. They helped him build houses and produce construction tools that were then sold to his people.

Therefore, on this planet, the first society that had currency and exchanged goods and services for currency was formed. The hero that brought on the revolution was obviously Liu Kesheng. He had single-handedly ended the era of bartering goods.

Liu Kesheng was proud of the pioneering work he was doing. He believed that after he died, he will be worshipped as a God of Creation!

As Lowell looked at the young God of Darkness in front of him, there was a feeling of incomprehension in his heart! He had thought that God would be some majestic old man, he had never expected him to be a young man.

But the God of the Akata Tribe was also very young, so Lowell felt a bit relieved, thinking that since Gods were immortal, it was obvious they would look young!

So he dared not have the slightest bit of contempt as he respectfully kneeled on the ground and said, “Oh God of Darkness, I am the patriarch of the Xixi Tribe, Lowell. I bring the people of my entire clan to submit to your Dark Tribe!”

“Good. So, approximately how many people does your tribe has?” Liu Kesheng asked.

“We probably have around a 1000 people!” Lowell said.

1000 people! That was indeed a big tribe! During his entire conquest, he had not received such a large tribe! Liu Kesheng was very excited in his heart! It seemed that his reputation had even deterred the north, making the large tribes there come to submit before him! Liu Kesheng felt elated in his heart, even his tone towards Lowell became warmer, “Very good! The fact that you came to our Dark Tribe on your own shows that you are a wise man! I will certainly not treat you unjustly!”

“Thank you for your kindness, God of Darkness!” As Lowell saw that the man before him was happy, he too became happy. It seems that he had made the right choice in coming here! If he had not made the decision, his entire tribe might have been crushed like an egg!

“Alright, you don’t have to call me God of Darkness. That is the name outsiders refer to me as. Since you are now our own person, you can call me Great King (大王)!” Liu Kesheng said with a wave of his hand.

Big Tortoise (大王八)? What was that? Lowell was stunned. However, since the other guy wanted that, he would just comply with it and that would be the end of it! So he said respectfully, “Understood, Big Tortoise!” {TL Note: Lowell misheard “Da Wang (Great King)”, a title, for “Da WangBa (Big Tortoise)”, an insult. You can read more about WangBa at https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Wang%20Ba }

“Big Tortoise?” Liu Kesheng was stunned. How did this guy get that wrong? Fortunately, there are no kings in this world, otherwise, he would have ended up as a joke, “Not a Big Tortoise, a Great King!”

“Ah, yes, Great King!” Lowell quickly said.

“You can leave now, I will decide an official position for you in a while!” Liu Kesheng said.

Those Patriarch’s who submitted to him on their own initiative, Liu Kesheng gave them an official position. First, he could satisfy the vanity of these people, and second, he could let the other tribes know how generous and kind he was to his men!

After all, war was an expensive mess. What Liu Kesheng was thinking now was how to advance the civilization of these tribes.

Otherwise, facing a group of primitive people, even if they had beautiful women, he wouldn’t have much libido!

Lowell was naturally happy to hear that Liu Kesheng was going to give him an official position. Under the leadership of some soldiers, he arrived at a stone room where he could rest.

“This place is worthy of being the dwelling of a god and his tribe!” It was the first time in his entire life that Lowell got to stay in such a high-quality place! He thought that the God of the Dark Tribe must be much better and stronger than the God of the Akata Tribe!

Before long, Liu Kesheng had lined up his army and completed the ceremony of welcoming the Xixi Tribe into their own. Lowell and Purple Fire Clan’s Patriarch, under the leadership of the Dark Tribe’s army, neatly entered their territory!

Lowell felt that his decision was very sensible, he had gained so much face today! Even the army of the Dark Tribe had come out to welcome them. Who else could have such honor and treatment!

Indeed, the previous tribes hadn’t received such a grand welcome. But this time, because the Xixi Tribe had so many people, Liu Kesheng was very happy and wanted to do something bigger!

Seeing that their tribes had not been discriminated against, Purple Flame Tribe’s Patriarch also felt relieved! What is more gratifying was that their tribe had been thinking that they would be treated as slaves by the Dark Tribe, but the reality was completely opposite. Now they knew that they could eat and wear the same as other members of the Dark Tribe. They could also work to earn money and buy whatever they liked. Their life was looking very wonderful!
