Those beasts thought that they would have to fight to break into the tribe. Unexpectedly, the other party opened the door and let them in.
From the other party’s calm expression, they did not seem afraid that they would cause trouble.
The group of aggressive beasts who rushed in did not dare to act rashly. They looked at each other and walked through the door one by one.
This group of outsiders caused quite a commotion. Many beasts who were working were attracted by the noise. They temporarily put down their work and gathered around to watch the commotion.
Even Xuan Wei, who was the most reclusive, walked out of the divine embassy and looked over.
After the Rock Wolf Tribe accepted the allegiance of several tribes, there were many races in the tribe.
In such a mixed environment, it was inevitable that there would be many conflicts. Fortunately, there were patrols to strictly control them and the neighborhood committee to coordinate with them. After a period of adjustment, everyone could finally get along peacefully.
They worked to earn work points every day to obtain food and shelter.
Recently, the females in the tribe had even made cotton cloth. This cloth was flexible and breathable. One work point could be exchanged for a piece of cotton cloth that was half the height of a person. The slightly richer beasts had already exchanged work points for cotton cloth to make clothes for themselves.
Affected by Huanhuan’s style of dressing, the beasts in the tribe, regardless of gender, preferred to wear long robes. If it was cold, they would even put on an animal hide coat.
They usually didn’t think much of it, but now that they were standing together with the fleeing beasts, the contrast was extremely stark.
Not only were the beasts of the Rock Wolf Tribe dressed neatly, but they also looked quite good.
The fleeing beasts were all wearing tattered animal hide skirts. Some of them didn’t even have animal hide skirts to wear. They could only run around naked.
Everyone had eyes and quickly noticed the glaring contrast.
The beasts of the Rock Wolf Tribe suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of pride.
‘See, not only do we have enough to eat and are we able to wear warm clothes, but we also wear cleaner and better clothes than you!’
Meanwhile, the beasts who fled silently hunched their shoulders. Other than jealousy, they were envious.
When Tong Fu saw the beasts in this tribe, he naturally could tell how powerful they were from their clothes. His ambition began to revive.
If he could gain a foothold in this tribe, his strength would definitely increase rapidly.
Thinking of this, Tong Fu changed his tactic. He raised his chin and asked loudly, “Where’s the leader of your tribe? Get him to come out and see me!”
Huanhuan said slowly, “The leader isn’t here. Please tell me what you want.”
When Tong Fu saw her eyes, he paused slightly.
He had never seen such beautiful eyes.
Even if he couldn’t see her entire face, he could tell from her eyes that the female in front of him was definitely beautiful.
Faced with females, especially beautiful females, male beasts would put on good attitudes. Even the ambitious Tong Fu could not escape this.
He softened his voice. “Who are you?”
“I’m the witch doctor of this tribe.”
This answer stunned Tong Fu for a moment, then he sneered. “I’ve never heard of a female becoming a witch doctor. Your joke is too funny.”
Jiu Yuan said angrily, “Who’s joking with you? This is our witch doctor! Please show some respect, or don’t blame us for being rude!”
Tong Fu still didn’t believe them. He stared into Huanhuan’s watery eyes. “You said you’re a witch doctor. What do you have to prove your identity?”
Jiu Yuan wanted to say something, but Huanhuan stopped him with a gesture.
Huanhuan knew that she was representing the entire Rock Wolf Tribe now. No matter what, she had to hold herself up well.
She said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner, “You suspect my identity, and I suspect yours. You said you’re an envoy, but what evidence do you have? You have to know that impersonating a witch doctor is nothing, but impersonating an envoy is a capital crime.”
“What a joke. I’m an envoy from the Sun God Temple! My identity is absolute!”
“Oh? You said you’re an envoy from the Sun God Temple. May I ask if you know this male beast beside me?” Huanhuan turned slightly so that everyone’s gaze was on Bai Di.
Tong Fu was so focused on Huanhuan’s face that he did not notice the male beast beside her.
He followed Huanhuan’s words and shifted his gaze to Bai Di.
When he saw Bai Di’s face, his knees went weak and he knelt on the ground. “G-Greetings, Second Prince!”
Everyone was stunned.
What was with this development?
Why did he call Bai Di ‘Second Prince’?
Bai Di glanced at him indifferently. His expression was no longer as gentle and amiable as before. He was frighteningly cold. “I’m not the second prince anymore. You don’t have to call me that.”
Tong Fu’s forehead was pressed tightly against the ground. Cold sweat broke out, and his voice was trembling. “Yes.”
The second prince in front of them seemed to be easy to get along with, but everyone in the Sun God Temple knew that the second prince was much more ruthless than the third prince.
Back then, there were many doubts about the queen’s death. The second prince had always suspected that the people from the Sun God Temple were secretly manipulating things. In order to find evidence, he had secretly killed many people in the temple. However, he could not find any evidence and could not identify the perpetrator.
Everyone in the temple was extremely afraid of this kind-looking but ruthless second prince. When they saw him, they would take a detour, afraid that he would catch them and kill them.
Tong Fu was no exception.
In his heart, this second prince was no different from a god of death!
If he had known that the second prince was in this tribe, he wouldn’t have dared to cause trouble here!
Huanhuan approached Bai Di and lowered her voice. “Why is he so afraid of you? Did you do something to him in the past?”
Bai Di lowered his head. The coldness in his eyes quickly melted into warm spring. “Do I look like the kind of beast who destroys others?”
Huanhuan blushed under his gaze. “No,” she whispered.
Bai Di stroked her head. “As for why he’s so timid, it has nothing to do with me.”
“Oh,” Huanhuan whispered when he was done speaking. “There are so many people watching. Don’t touch my head. I have to maintain my noble and cold witch doctor image.”
She paused, then added, “If you really want to touch it, I’ll let you touch it when we get back.”
Bai Di smiled. “Okay, I’ll touch it when we get back.”
Jiu Yuan coughed lightly to remind the couple to pay attention to the occasion.
Even if they wanted to show off their love, couldn’t they do it when they got home?
This was a public place. There were onlookers and underaged children around!
Oh, right. There was also the envoy, who was so frightened that he was about to pee his pants.
