"I still have some matters to attend to. I'll be leaving the tribe's affairs in your hands from now on."
After outlining the general development direction for the tribe, Su Xingyu left the elders, who were looking at each other in bewilderment, and went into seclusion alone.
The high-ranking officials of the Night Tribe were already accustomed to this.
Their Clan Leader would disappear for a period of time from time to time, and then reappear with the blessings of the Eternal Night Monarch, making the tribe even stronger.
The population of the Night Tribe was growing, and the matters that needed to be handled were increasing, making the Clan Leader's absence even more of a burden.
If nothing unexpected happened, most of the high-ranking officials would have to work overtime in the coming period.
Fortunately, Su Xingyu had already written out the general development route, so they only needed to develop according to the plan. Otherwise, that would have been true suffering.
After discussing for a while longer and assigning tasks, everyone went home to handle their respective affairs.
..
Su Xingyu arrived at the center of the tribe, in front of the Divine Hall that the tribe had spent a large amount of resources to build.
As the iconic building of the Night Tribe, the security here was extremely tight, with guards constantly stationed here.
Two squads of warriors clad in black armor guarded the entrance to the Divine Hall. They were the most elite warriors of the Night Tribe, with each warrior possessing at least Second Tier strength.
"Clan Leader."
The leader of the guards stepped forward and respectfully greeted him.
Su Xingyu nodded and walked into the Divine Hall, saying as he walked, "I am going to pray to the Monarch. Guard this place well and do not let anyone disturb me."
"As you command, Clan Leader."
The leader of the guards respectfully nodded.
He then dispatched the guards beside him to patrol the Divine Hall and seal off the surroundings, preventing any idle people from approaching.
Su Xingyu pushed open the doors of the Divine Hall and walked straight into the hall, arriving at its deepest part.
In the center of the hall was a fountain pool. Behind the pool stood a Divine Statue, over ten feet tall. The statue was entirely black, tall and burly, its face indistinguishable. It held a shield in its left hand and a saber in its right.
This was the Dark God that the Night Tribe believed in – the Eternal Night Monarch.
Su Xingyu approached the statue, sat down leaning against it, and slowly closed his eyes.
A mysterious space, as black as ink.
It felt like being at the bottom of an abyss, without a trace of light.
In the center of the space, he... no, it should be *He* slowly opened his eyes. His dark eyes held a hint of fatigue, showing that He was somewhat tired.
"Mad, it's finally over."
Back in his own lair, Su Xingyu felt a great sense of relief and let out a long sigh.
That's right, Su Xingyu was playing two roles: he was the Clan Leader of the Night Tribe, and he was also the God believed in by the Night Tribe.
Su Xingyu was not a native of this world.
About two and a half years ago, a cataclysm swept across the globe.
A great being brought all humans to this space and generously bestowed upon them a precious Godhead, allowing them to ascend to godhood in one step.
Of course, the "god" now was quite diluted.
He had not comprehended any Laws, had not ignited his Divine Fire, and had not even condensed a Divine Body.
Such a deity could be called a false god, and that would be flattering him.
When he first entered this world, an entity called "System" gave him a tribe, a tribe of only a few hundred people.
In addition, it gave him a mission: to unify the surrounding forces.
This mission sounded difficult, and when he actually started, Su Xingyu just wanted to curse. This was not a mission that humans could complete.
There were as many as a hundred tribes along the Red River, both upstream and downstream. Some were as weak as the Night Tribe, with only a few hundred people in the entire tribe, while others were as strong as tens of thousands, all full of martial spirit. Coupled with the tempering of the grasslands and snowstorms, Su Xingyu was almost beaten to death.
Fortunately, the System's rewards were given in stages, and many of these rewards were ancient black technologies, such as blast furnaces and forging furnaces.
Moreover, as the number of believers increased, Su Xingyu's Divine Power grew significantly, allowing him to barely bestow blessings upon his believers.
After two and a half years of conquest, Su Xingyu led the Night Tribe to successfully conquer the Red River, and the Night Tribe expanded to its current scale.
Hundreds of thousands of tribesmen and tens of thousands of soldiers – the data alone was quite intimidating.
"After working for so many days, I can finally rest properly."
Su Xingyu had been busy with various tribal affairs for the past few days, so busy that he hadn't even had time to carefully examine the System's rewards and his own status panel.

This panel could only be seen by him. It was somewhat like a game panel. In fact, at first, Su Xingyu also thought this was a game world, and he was an unlucky person who had accidentally entered a virtual world.
However, the hot blood splashed on his face and the pain when the long saber cut open his chest told him that this was not a game world.
Here, death was truly death; there was no such thing as resurrection.
However, after confirming this information, Su Xingyu did not feel scared; instead, he felt a little excited.
Since this was a real world, it also proved that becoming a god was real.
No one could refuse the temptation of eternal life, and Su Xingyu was no exception.
In his previous life, he was just an ordinary person. Although he had no worries about food and clothing, he ultimately felt that life was a bit boring.
And now, in this world, how should he put it...
It's very interesting!
In this world, there were no clear rules; strength was everything.
Here, he didn't need to worry about too many things; he just needed to focus on improving his strength.
Su Xingyu liked this kind of world very much, even if he himself might die here.
Recalling his thoughts, Su Xingyu turned his gaze to the newly added interfaces at the bottom.
【 City of Gods 】 【 Information 】 【 Plane 】
【 City of Gods 】: A place of absolute safety where deities can trade and reside. （ Note: Each trip to the City of Gods requires the consumption of 10 units of Divine Source, and staying an additional day requires paying 10 units of Divine Source ）
Su Xingyu looked at the 【 City of Gods 】 and silently thought "Go."
A portal shimmering with white light suddenly appeared before Him. Su Xingyu stepped into it.
