I Became The Chief Of A Primitive Village

Chapter 1013, Dispute in the Rain

Translator: Silavin

Yini appeared once more in the forest with a group of Totem Warriors, an action that could be described as extremely risky.

There was no other reason. Choosing to enter the forest during the rainy season was undoubtedly an act no different to seeking death.

Even though they were all Totem Warriors, the forest during the rainy season was extremely dangerous. They had to remain constantly alert at all times.

“Why must we come out during the rainy season? Wouldn’t it be better to rest properly in the Tribe?” Ci was somewhat confused. They had travelled back and forth to the Flame Dragon Tribe far too many times now. It felt as though they had spent the entire year in transit.

“You don’t understand. Everyone will definitely be waiting for the rainy season to end before going to the Flame Dragon Tribe to discuss cooperation. At that time, we certainly won’t have any advantage.” Yini vigilantly surveyed their surroundings. “So we must seize this opportunity, because everyone stays indoors during the rainy season. We need to be the first ones there.”

“What if we take this risk going there and they still don’t choose us? Wouldn’t we have come for nothing?”

Ci did not dare to relax in the slightest either. “So we have no need to take risks for such uncertain matters. Have you forgotten that you’ve only just escaped from danger?”

The girl recalled the days when she had been imprisoned by the Flame Dragon Tribe. The fact that she now wasn’t missing any limbs was already quite fortunate.

If the Flame Dragon Tribe had wanted to remove one of Yini’s arms or legs at that time, the Earth Tiger Tribe absolutely could not have said anything about it.

Because they had been the ones to violate the rules first. But she was now safe and sound, which made one thing very clear.

“You’re just worrying too much. The environment we’re living in now doesn’t allow us to be comfortable. We must work hard.” Yini was full of determination. She had most likely been stimulated by the environment of the Flame Dragon Tribe, which had filled her with fighting spirit. She absolutely would not tolerate the Earth Tiger Tribe being inferior to other Medium Tribes, especially knowing that this Medium Tribe had only recently reached this size.

Previously it had still been a Small Tribe. Not only that, it had also been severely damaged by the Black Snake Tribe. One could imagine how strong their capabilities were, to be able to develop like this in such a short time.

To say Yini was not envious would be a lie. She definitely dreamt of making the Tribe better.

“Why have you suddenly started caring about these matters? You never seemed to worry about such things before.” Ci asked doubtfully.

The girl felt that the other’s transformation was really too obvious. It seemed to have all started after going to the Flame Dragon Tribe.

“After going to the Flame Dragon Tribe so many times, don’t you understand? We’ve simply lost by too much.” Yini completely disregarded the rain beating against her face.

She was now as excited, wishing she could mobilise everyone in the entire Tribe.

“They are indeed quite good, but there’s no way we can compare with them.” Ci shrugged her shoulders. “Moreover, even if we’re determined to work hard, we don’t know what their Tribe relied on to develop, so let’s not make futile efforts.”

“That’s exactly why we need to go to their Tribe. If we go several more times, we’ll find out.” Yini shook her hair that had been soaked by the rain. “Perhaps after cooperating several more times, they’ll tell us their secrets. That’s entirely possible, isn’t it?”

Yini remained very optimistic, thinking about everything in a positive light.

“You’re really thinking too idealistically. This is their Tribe’s secret. How could they possibly tell us so easily?” Ci was helpless as well. She felt that she failed to notice how Yini was like this before. Why did she now change to be so full of fighting spirit?

“People always need to have ideals. We can’t just give up easily. But I dare say our Tribe will definitely be the first.” Yini looked completely confident. “The other Tribes definitely won’t think of this. Even if they do, they wouldn’t dare come out during the rainy season.”

Yu Ying appeared completely certain of victory, as if she had foreseen the Earth Tiger Tribe’s upcoming success.

“Don’t hold such high hopes just yet. Let’s wait until we safely reach the Flame Dragon Tribe first.” Ci vigilantly scanned the surrounding environment, fearful that a large Ferocious Beast might suddenly leap out.

Totem Warriors held no advantage in the rain, while those Ferocious Beasts were the ones with the greatest advantage. The reason they chose to come out during the rainy season meant they had the capability to do so.

If they were not normally someone who came out during the rainy season, coming out at this time was undoubtedly seeking death.

“Don’t worry, I’ll constantly be on alert. There’s absolutely no way I’ll give the Ferocious Beasts any opportunity.” Yini looked completely confident.

This was also why she had chosen to go to the Flame Dragon Tribe during the rainy season. She absolutely could not lose to other Tribes. This was her competitive nature, personified.

“But I haven’t asked yet. After we reach the Flame Dragon Tribe, what conditions will we use to negotiate with them?” Ci suddenly realised this point.

Because she had discovered that they had not brought any food this time, let alone any slaves.

“You’ll know when we get there. I’ve already discussed it with Father. The conditions we’re offering are absolutely ones the Flame Dragon Tribe cannot refuse.” Yini’s expression remained very confident, as if nothing could trouble her.

“I feel you’ve been rather peculiar lately, and also rather secretive. I won’t worry about you anymore. I’ll just focus on protecting your safety.” Ci sighed. In any case, she couldn’t understand anything now, so she might as well not bother.

“In any case, you’ll understand why I’m so insistent when the time comes, because this will definitely be meaningful.” Yini didn’t want to explain too much. She felt that rather than saying too much, it would be better to directly let the other see the results. That way would be easier to understand. Moreover, what she had discussed with Hu Huzi was the Tribe’s secret and could not be easily told to someone from another Tribe.

Even though Ci had completely joined the Earth Tiger Tribe, she had ultimately been from another Tribe before. She had even been from across the great river, so some matters still needed to be considered carefully.

“How much longer until we arrive?” Ci had no concept of time, so she didn’t know.

“Probably about one or two days. In any case, we’re very close now. We just need to pay attention to movements around us.” Yini immediately reassured her.

They had already been out for some time. If these few days were included, it would be approximately fifteen days in total.

Advancing during the rainy season was rather difficult. The time spent would be longer than usual.

“That’s good. At least this way there’s something to look forward to.” Ci breathed a sigh of relief.

*Pitter patter…*

The rainy season would not stop raining because of the Warriors’ difficulties. On the contrary, it might rain even more ruthlessly.
