Gu Yuan Tribe.
Xiao Chen's departure from the tribe was known only by a few, including the two women, Mu Qing and Nianhua, and a few tribal elders, who publicly announced that he was in seclusion.
Over the years, the tribe members had grown accustomed to Xiao Chen's seclusion for cultivation; rather, his improvements during seclusion had become a hot topic among the tribe members, who constantly speculated about the extent to which Xiao Chen's strength would have increased by the time he emerged!
"The chieftain, already a legendary strong one, I wonder what realm he will reach after this seclusion!"
"I believe the chieftain will definitely become a Near Monarch Expert!"
Some of the elders in the tribe, leaning on their canes, wandered through the tribe daily, and their favorite pastime was to check on the strength of the younger generation or to speculate about their own chieftain's strength.
