Adams nced at hispanions, who had already covered some ground, and were still a fair distance from the Five Elements n.
“I won’t return today. I’ll spend the night here and discuss matters with the Five Elements n tomorrow,” Adams dered. He had contemted this during their journey and had made the necessary arrangements.
Surveying their surroundings, he determined it was a suitable ce for temporary rest. There were no immediate threats from wild beasts, and they should be able to forage for wild fruits to satisfy their hunger. The meat they had brought was still in their possession, which could serve as a backup if needed.
Returning home and thening back the next day seemed both exhausting and unproductive.
“But regardless, the Five Elements n seems unwilling to cooperate. How can we negotiate when that woman desires something other than meat?” A member of the Thunder Fire n voiced their frustration.
Various suggestions had been proposed, yet nothing seemed satisfactory. The sense of humiliation they were experiencing was unprecedented.
Adams’ expression grew stern as he stated, “Didn’t that woman assert that being the wife of the Thunder Fire n’s Tribe Chief was an affront to her? She’s the Tribe Chief of her own n, and she’ll remain in that role. In the future, even if she marries someone, she’ll have to continue leading the Five Elements n.”
“In that case, I’ll consent.”
“I joined the Five Elements n to look after the Five Elements n, and, at the same time, the Thunder Fire n has integrated with the Five Elements n.”
“At this stage, it’s highly unlikely she won’t agree, right?” Adams inquired.
“Tribe Chief! Are we really going to do this? We’re letting that woman off too easily!” The Thunder Fire n members expressed their reluctance.
The integration of the Thunder Fire n and the Tribe Chief’s affiliation with the Five Elements n seemed like an act of yielding too much ground. Concerns about the future of the Thunder Fire n arose—there appeared to be no discernible benefits, only potential losses.
Adams reassured them, “What’s there to worry about? We’re just beginning this journey. We have plenty of time ahead to gradually achieve our goals.”
While the Thunder Fire n members still harbored some discontent, they ultimately relented. Even if they didn’t endure the consequences, the Tribe Chief would.
“Remember, she’s still a woman. She used to be quite infatuated with me. Now, perhaps she’s being influenced by someone else. However, if I join the Five Elements n and remain by her side day and night, I can make her listen to me and willingly adapt. So, what’s the cause for concern?” Adams spoke with confidence.
His situation differed from Xui’s. Xui was the Patriarch’s only daughter and thus assumed the role of Tribe Chief by birthright. However, the Thunder Fire n followed different customs. Adams’ father was one of the Patriarch’s brothers, and to secure his position as Tribe Chief, he needed to employ cunning strategies. Reiming what was rightfully his was only a matter of time, a mere formality.
Since the nsmen couldn’t dissuade him, they ceased their attempts. The Tribe Chief had a clear n, and when he officially joined the Five Elements n, the rest of the Thunder Fire n members would naturally follow suit. This journey would bring them into close contact with the weapons of the Five Elements n.
As time went on, they gradually acquired their own weaponry. The Thunder Fire n’s numbers were significant, and in this scenario, even if that woman didn’t heed the Tribe Chief’s guidance, they possessed the capability to overpower the Five Elements n and stage a resurgence.
With this realization, they decided to bide their time for the moment.
