147: Chapter 147 Watching the Show

Two days passed peacefully. The Eagle Beasts did not attack again, and gradually, some tribesmen began to venture out to assess the situation and move about.

"Wan Wan, what are you doing with that water? I'll handle it."

The stone basin filled with water was taken by Yan Lie.

Bai Wanwan was already used to it. She pointed to the plot of land outside, "Pour this water onto the ground, not too much..."

Potatoes have a short growth cycle; they might even yield a harvest before we leave.

Potatoes can fill the stomach and can be made into all kinds of delicious foods. The key point is, they don't cost any points!

She stood outside watching Yan Lie water the ground, but her gaze drifted past the clearing into the distance.

A group of tribesmen were marching past in a grand procession. Among them was a beautiful Female—that was Zhuo Ling.

The Males carried beast skin bags of various sizes, but they hadn't gone far before they were intercepted by the Black Dog Tribe's chief, who had rushed over upon hearing the news.

He, along with the Males of the Black Dog Tribe, blocked their path of departure.

"Warriors of the Golden Lion Tribe, this is a Female of my Black Dog Tribe. You cannot take her away."

The leading Male from the Golden Lion Tribe raised his voice, "This is Female Zhuo Ling's choice. The Black Dog Tribe is no longer a suitable place to live; it's dangerous for Females to stay."

The chief immediately denied it, "That won't happen. Those Eagle Beasts have been killed; it's unlikely they'll launch another large-scale attack."

The chief was so anxious that sweat beaded on his forehead. The Eagle Beasts' attack had already cost the Tribe dozens of Males, dealing a severe blow to their vitality.

If Zhuo Ling left with her several Beast Husbands, all of whom possessed extremely high Talent, the Black Dog Tribe would fall to the lowest tier of Tribes.

Then, even a random group of Wandering Beasts could wipe them all out.

Therefore, he absolutely could not let the Males of the Golden Lion Tribe take Zhuo Ling away.

"We do not wish to fight the Males of the Black Dog Tribe, but we will definitely take Female Zhuo Ling with us."

The chief's face darkened, and he refused to yield an inch, "Even though you are tribesmen from a Large Tribe, you cannot forcibly take Females from another Tribe. How are you any different from Wandering Beasts?"

Hearing themselves compared to Wandering Beasts, the Males of the Golden Lion Tribe grew angry, their faces tinged with a faint green hue.

In their hearts, they knew this wasn't right, but Female Zhuo Ling had requested it herself; it wasn't the same as forcibly taking her.

Worried that the Females of the Golden Lion Tribe might get angry and abandon her, Zhuo Ling immediately stepped out from among the Males.

"Chief, if it weren't for Mu Shan causing trouble and attracting the Eagle Beasts, I wouldn't be leaving. These are the supplies I'm leaving for the Black Dog Tribe, all sent by the Young Chief of the Golden Lion Tribe. I leave them to you, Chief. Please, let me go..."

"No! You are a Female of the Black Dog Tribe; you cannot leave!"

The most precious asset of every Tribe is Females with excellent fertility.

Other Females may leave, but Zhuo Ling cannot!

Zhuo Ling sighed, "Chief, I have always regarded you as my Father Beast. I do not wish to act against you, but I... must leave today!"

Her last sentence carried a tone of firmness mixed with a hint of threat.

Her meaning was already very clear: if the chief tried to forcibly stop her, even if she didn't want to... she would take action.

The chief immediately looked at the twenty-plus Males around her, pressing his lips tightly together to contain his anger.

Zhuo Ling nodded to her Beast Husbands. Two of them carried two large beast skin bundles and walked up to the chief.

"Chief, these are the things I'm leaving for the Black Dog Tribe. This is all I can do."

When the chief didn't order anyone to take them, Zhuo Ling's two Beast Husbands placed the beast skin bundles on the ground.

"Let's go!"

After speaking, Zhuo Ling led her Beast Husbands and the Males of the Golden Lion Tribe past the Males of the Black Dog Tribe and continued forward.

"Zhuo Ling, you come back here!"

The chief was so angry he was practically fuming. He immediately ordered the Tribe's Males to give chase.

But none of the Males moved.

The wounds on their faces and bodies hadn't healed yet.

"Chief, those are Males from the Golden Lion Tribe. We can't defeat them. If Zhuo Ling wants to leave, we can't stop her!"

"So you're just going to stand by and watch her leave? Watch our Black Dog Tribe be destroyed?"

No Male dared to respond, but no one dared to go and stop her either.

The chief, filled with rage and nowhere to vent it, suddenly spotted Bai Wanwan and Shi Hua watching the show from a distance.

He was taken aback for a moment, then the anger on his face slowly faded as he strode towards Bai Wanwan's home.

Bai Wanwan hadn't expected that simply wanting to watch some excitement would end up drawing the Black Dog Tribe's chief over...

Even though the other party had clearly seen her, she wasn't embarrassed. She simply turned around and walked inside, pretending to be busy.

But even that didn't stop the chief's approach.

Before he could get close, Yan Lie stopped him.

Yan Lie glanced at the crowd of Males behind him, "Is there something you need, Chief?"

The chief looked at the unfamiliar Male before him, "Are you also Bai Wanwan's Beast Husband?"

Yan Lie really wanted to nod and say yes.

"No." His voice was muffled.

The chief's eyes swept over him, assessing. It was clear this was also a Male with extremely high Talent.

Bai Wanwan had given birth to five Cubs in one litter. Just now, he had seen her protruding belly, clearly pregnant again.

Without even thinking, Bai Wanwan's fertility must surely surpass even Zhuo Ling's.

Her several Beast Husbands must also possess extremely high Talent.

If he could keep Bai Wanwan and her Beast Husbands here, perhaps the Black Dog Tribe still had hope—it wouldn't be swallowed up by other Tribes or destroyed by Wandering Beasts.

"Bai Wanwan, there's something I'd like to discuss with you."

Bai Wanwan grabbed a piece of dried sweet potato to chew on for a snack and asked lazily from inside, "What is it, Chief?"

The chief of the Black Dog Tribe softened his tone, trying to make his expression as amiable as possible.

"It's like this. Earlier, you said you were only staying temporarily in the Black Dog Tribe, right? Starting now, you don't need to send any more prey. You can freely choose any place in the Tribe you'd like to live. What do you think?"

"We made it clear to you from the beginning, Chief. We are only staying temporarily; we won't remain here permanently."

The chief patiently continued, "Our Black Dog Tribe has a very good geographical location. There are no Large Tribes or Wandering Beasts nearby, making it very suitable for living."

Bai Wanwan nodded, "It probably was suitable before, but now that the Eagle Beasts have taken notice, that's hard to say."

"The Eagle Beasts suffered heavy casualties; they can't launch another attack. You can rest assured about that."

Bai Wanwan glanced at him without the slightest hesitation, "Chief, if I didn't have Cubs, I might agree to your request. But I can't use my Cubs as a gamble. We will definitely leave. Chief, you don't need to waste time on us."

After hearing this, the chief fell silent for a long time before letting out a deep sigh.

Perhaps he deserved this. Earlier, he had indulged Mu Shan's family, letting them act lawlessly, even to the point where their Cubs could steal Eagle Beast eggs, bringing such disaster upon the Tribe...

"Alright, if you must leave, then leave. But while you're still here, if the Tribe encounters danger, could you lend a hand?"

Bai Wanwan thought for a moment, then nodded, "If we have the capacity to help, we will."
