Chapter 2719 These Humans Are Suspicious
The old man and the young man didn't take the meal seriously at all. However, their idea was simple: to hold back for now and see what Ye Changqing and his group were up to.
First ensure your own safety, then think of a way to escape.
Hearing the old man's words, the young man was still furious at the old clan chief's attitude, but he didn't say anything more.
The old man is right. Given the current situation, the grandfather and grandson have no choice but to back down.
Those useless people from the Fire Spirit Tribe are unreliable.
Meanwhile, the members of the Fire Spirit Tribe, who had been brought under control and were being looked after by members of the Yanwu Tribe, all looked lifeless.
How could things have gotten to this point?
From the very beginning, the young clan leader Huo Ming intended to take action against Qi Wu, leading his men in a relentless pursuit, yet ultimately failing to kill him.
They even got involved with those tree spirits in the Black Mist Forest.
In the end, even the Linshi tribe surrendered to the Yanwu tribe, leaving their Huoling tribe isolated and facing retaliation from the Yanwu tribe.
Having no other option, the chieftain contacted the Tiefeng tribe. Fortunately, the Tiefeng tribe did not stand idly by and sent someone to mediate the matter.
What's surprising is how incredibly bold the Yanwu tribe is.
They brought Black Mist Forest with them, showing no respect for the Iron Peak Tribe, and directly detained the elders and youths from the Iron Peak Tribe.
This is simply outrageous! That's the Iron Peak Tribe! Where did the Yanwu Tribe get the guts?
They couldn't understand it, but now that their entire tribe was under prisoner, their most urgent task was naturally to find a way to protect themselves.
If you can't even protect yourself, what else can you think about?
At this moment, Huo Ming and his son, along with several elders of the Huo Ling tribe, were sitting in a corner.
The expressions on everyone's faces were extremely gloomy. Although they still gave each other some face on the surface and did not say it outright, the elders were clearly already dissatisfied with Huo Ming and his son.
The father and son are largely to blame for the tribe's current predicament.
Why are you all looking at me like that?
Faced with the complicated gazes of the elders, the chief of the Fire Spirit Tribe gritted his teeth and said something in an annoyed tone.
Upon hearing this, the elders fell silent and did not reply.
Faced with this silent response, the Fire Spirit Tribe Chief was furious, but he couldn't say anything.
"Chieftain, the Yanwu tribe is now lawless. They dare to attack not only us, but also the Tiefeng tribe. We need to be careful and make preparations as soon as possible."
After a long silence, one of the clan elders finally spoke.
His concerns were not unfounded. The Yanwu tribe dared to attack even the Tiefeng tribe. If they really had murderous intent, killing them would be a piece of cake.
Previously, the Fire Spirit Tribe might have thought that unless it was the very last moment and the two sides were truly at odds, the Flame Warrior Tribe would not dare to kill anyone.
However, now, several elders think differently, mainly because of the Tiefeng tribe.
They don't even care about the Iron Peak Tribe, so dealing with a few people from the Fire Spirit Tribe is a piece of cake for them.
Even wiping out the entire Fire Spirit Tribe is probably not an impossible task at present.
That's why the elders were worried, fearing that these madmen might suddenly become murderous.
However, upon hearing this, Huo Ming spoke coldly.
“My uncles are overthinking things. I think the Yanwu tribe is courting death right now.”
"They even dared to offend the Iron Peak Tribe. When the people from the Iron Peak Tribe come, let's see how the Yanwu Tribe will explain themselves."
“Originally, we had to be careful to deal with the Yanwu tribe’s retaliation, but now that the Yanwu tribe has brought this upon themselves, this matter is no longer the concern of my Huoling tribe. The Tiefeng tribe will not let them off the hook.”
"We can just watch the show from the sidelines. We probably don't even need to fulfill the conditions we agreed to before."
The Huoling tribe must have paid a price to get the Tiefeng tribe involved; otherwise, why would they have agreed?
While these costs might not be unbearable for the Fire Spirit Tribe, they are still enough to make one's heart ache for a while.
However, the Yanwu tribe remains as arrogant as ever, and has directly offended the Tiefeng tribe to the death.
This is no longer a matter between the Fire Spirit Tribe and the Flame Warrior Tribe, but a feud between the Iron Peak Tribe and the Flame Warrior Tribe.
Even if the Fire Spirit Tribe does nothing, the Iron Peak Tribe will probably still not let the Flame Warrior Tribe go.
For the Fire Spirit Tribe, there is only one thing to consider now: how to survive peacefully.
The rest was naturally handled by the Tiefeng tribe.
Huo Ming refused to believe it. With the Yanwu tribe so rampant, it was impossible for the Tiefeng tribe to keep them around.
Upon hearing this, the elders present did not refute it, as it was indeed true. However, they would have to wait until the people from the Iron Peak tribe arrived before making any further statements.
"Let's be honest for now. A wise man doesn't fight a losing battle. It's no big deal to admit defeat for now."
At this moment, the chieftain of the Fire Spirit Tribe also spoke up.
He is flexible and adaptable; as long as he can survive, it's no big deal for him to back down temporarily.
Upon hearing this, the elders, though still harboring resentment, nodded silently in agreement.
Now that things have come to this, what other options are there?
The Fire Spirit Tribe has already decided to prioritize survival and then watch how the Flame Warrior Tribe dies.
Do they really think they can act with impunity just because they've subdued the tree spirits of the Black Mist Forest? What a joke.
The Flame Warrior Tribe was unaware of the Fire Spirit Tribe's intentions. Inside the fire room, Ye Changqing had already begun to get busy.
The old clan chief, meanwhile, was eager to help, but he knew nothing about it.
Tian Lin even complained about it.
"Hey senior, if you're free, you could go out for a cup of tea."
"I'm just worried that you won't be able to handle it all."
"We really can't keep up with all the work while you're here."
"hehe."
The old clan chief wasn't angry at all. He grinned and then moved closer to Ye Changqing.
"Young Ye, do you think we need someone to keep us company when we eat later? It would be more convenient to have a member of the Barbarian God Clan with us. Don't worry, I'll make sure you're satisfied."
Seeing that the delicious food was about to be ready, the old clan chief disregarded everything else and immediately began to volunteer himself.
He's a member of the Barbarian God Clan. If you invite the elders of the Iron Peak Tribe to dinner, how can you expect to have a member of the Barbarian God Clan accompanying you?
With him around, he'll make sure the Tiefeng tribe obediently releases their companions.
The old clan chief had a big smile on his face, and his eyes were full of anticipation. He had been in the kitchen the whole time and knew how lavish the meal would be.
Such a feast is not to be missed.
