After an extensive search, he finally located the Tribe Chief within a group of women who appeared to be deliberating on their recent prey. Over the past few days, the clan had assigned several individuals to spearhead the hunting efforts, knowing that winter was approaching and it was imperative to dry and preserve meat for the harsh months ahead, ensuring their fellow clansmen could stave off hunger and survive.
Until now, it had been these women who led the effort, and it seemed they intended to proceed as usual. However, the Tribe Chief appeared to have a different perspective, her excitement evident as she voiced her opinion.
Gary hesitated to disrupt this scene, but recognizing the Tribe Chief’s authority, he felt pelled to report all the recent developments in the clan. He held great respect for her.
Thus, they had to discuss the Thunder Fire Clan Tribe Chief’s arrival. “Tribe Chief,” Gary called out softly.
Gu Chaoyan, absorbed in her thoughts about the dried meat, appeared to have forgotten yesterday’s events. She regarded Gary with puzzlement, asking, “What is it?”
Gary found himself in a conflicted state of emotions, uncertain of how to feel about the situation.
Gu Chaoyan suddenly recollected the previous day. A few Thunder Fire Tribe members had approached her, seeking a discussion that she had promptly declined. Their social statuses were distinct, and since they wanted to negotiate, it was only fitting for the Tribe Chief to engage. The Five Elements Clan had only recently begun to assert itself, and she aimed to stand up for her clansmen, reminding them that they need not be subservient to others.
Today, their Tribe Chief had indeed arrived.
Last night, she had gone out of her way to consult Aina regarding the Thunder Fire Clan, gaining a better understanding of the situation. She discovered that the previous owner of her body had held great admiration for the Tribe Chief and had made a series of foolish decisions. It seemed that this Thunder Fire Clan Tribe Chief was likely attempting to deceive the Five Elements Clan once more.
In light of this, she felt pelled to meet him personally and put a stop to his schemes.
“Tribe Chief, what about these prey?” a clan member inquired.
“Wait for my return; I will handle it,” she insisted.
The clan members fell silent, awaiting the Tribe Chief’s return.
Gary couldn’t help but smile. It pleased him to see the Tribe Chief’s unwavering concern for the clan, alleviating his earlier gloom.
“Are they waiting outside?” Gu Chaoyan inquired.
“Yes, I haven’t allowed them inside without your instructions,” Gary replied.
“Let them enter and convene at the meeting place,” Gu Chaoyan instructed as she departed.
Gary nodded and stepped outside to escort the Thunder Fire Tribe members in. Since the Tribe Chief had given her approval, he would carry out her orders, believing that she knew the boundaries of the situation.
Approaching the Thunder Fire Clan’s Patriarch, Gary extended an invitation, saying, “Patriarch of the Thunder Fire Tribe, please e in.”
Adams couldn’t hide his self-assured smile, and the Thunder Fire Clan members shared the sentiment. With the Tribe Chief taking charge, their treatment was entirely different. She had graciously allowed them inside, which made them feel as though they were visiting their own clan, boosting their self-importance.
Gary, despite his disfort, endured the situation. He and a few clan members maintained a watchful presence, keeping their bows and arrows at the ready to prevent any potential schemes by the Thunder Fire Clan visitors.
He led his entourage into the bamboo house.
Adams couldn’t hide his surprise as he took in the sight of the bamboo house, clearly an unexpected development. He had no idea who had e up with this idea.
Upon entering, he noticed Xuelai within, and Gu Chaoyan’s gaze also fell on him simultaneously.
Gu Chaoyan, curious about the girl who had captured the previous body owner’s affection, scrutinized her closely.
The Tribe Chief, like the other clansmen, had a sun-kissed plexion, consistent with the people of this world. However…
He was notably tall and exuded a strong masculine presence.
