For Xiao Chen, the Gu Yuan Tribe's entry into the Dragon Fall Territory was like stepping into complete darkness. Subduing a native tribe from Dragon Fall Ridge would offer countless benefits.
Of course, given the current strength of the Gu Yuan Tribe, coercing any common battle division into subservience would not be difficult. However, the Gu Yuan Tribe had just migrated here and had not yet fully grasped the affairs of the territory. To keep a low profile and solidify their foothold, subduing a scattered tribe would be the best choice.
Such scattered tribes are present in both the Great Wasteland and within the Dragon Fall Ridge territory, in excessive numbers. Absorbing a small scattered tribe like this would not create any ripples.
