Chapter 473 - 377: The Resentment of Yan Yan’s Tribe Witch
After being swindled out of her salt and even giving up several Beast Skins to Wu Yue, the Yan Yan Tribe’s witch felt she’d gotten a raw deal no matter how she looked at it. Especially since the Snow Tiger Tribe’s method for building stone houses was still a closely guarded secret, impossible to obtain anytime soon.
Their most important objective for attending the tribal gathering in the Polar Forest was to bring back Fierce Beast Crystal Cores.
But she hadn’t expected the Shuishan Tribe to suddenly appear and ruin their plans. Far from acquiring more Crystal Stones, they had actually ended up with fewer.
If she really went back with just those few Crystal Stones... Heh.
Anyone could see that the status she had worked so hard to accumulate would inevitably take a hit.
A sinister glint flashed across the witch’s eyes. ’I’m not the only Witch Disciple in the tribe, after all.’
The Snow Tiger Tribe Leader shot the young female across from him a peculiar look. ’Does she have some kind of misunderstanding about me?’
His expression was placid as he said, "If we need salt, I’ll go to the Yan Yan Tribe to trade for it."
While this witch seemed highly respected by the Yan Yan Tribe’s Beastman Warriors, she was still only a Witch Disciple. Salt trading was a major affair for any tribe.
Not even a Clan Leader could make that decision lightly, let alone a Witch Disciple.
The Snow Tiger Tribe Leader’s statement was a clear rejection, and the suspicion in his eyes was completely undisguised, a fact the Yan Yan Tribe’s witch did not miss.
Her hands clenched into fists in her lap. Fury flared within her, but recalling the status of the Beastman before her, she forced it back down.
"That’s truly a pity. The next time the Snow Tiger Tribe comes to trade, I fear the cost will be much higher."
She kept a smile plastered on her face, but internally she was fuming.p>Her deepest impression from this trip to the Snow Tiger Tribe was that there wasn’t a single good person among them.
The Snow Tiger Tribe Leader nodded. "We’ll discuss it when the time comes, then."
’Oh, please. Who does she think she’s threatening?’
’I didn’t get to be Clan Leader, and remain so, by being easily scared.’
Sensing his displeasure, the Yan Yan Tribe’s witch remembered the other matter on her mind. She had no choice but to swallow her annoyance and ask with a renewed smile, "That Beastman Warrior named Yuan Lang, does he have a mate?"
As she mentioned Yuan Lang, she nervously clasped her hands in front of her, her pupils trembling slightly as she looked at the Snow Tiger Tribe Leader.
"A Beastman who just recently came of age should be focused on contributing to the tribe, not finding a mate!"
The Yan Yan Tribe’s witch was already interested in Yuan Lang, so she naturally knew he was single. Her reason for asking the Snow Tiger Tribe Leader was to achieve another one of her goals.
The smile vanished from her face, replaced by a solemn expression as she looked at the Snow Tiger Tribe Leader. "Since you were unwilling to agree to the previous salt trade, Clan Leader..."
"Then how about you consider letting Yuan Lang become my first mate?"
"If he becomes my mate, I can swear to the Beast God that as soon as I become the witch of the Yan Yan Tribe, any future salt trades with the Snow Tiger Tribe will be at half price."
"And even..."
A sharp glint appeared in the witch’s eyes. "If the Snow Tiger Tribe wishes to become the sole Great Tribe in the Polar Forest, the Yan Yan Tribe will give you our full support."
The Snow Tiger Tribe Leader’s hand, holding his pottery bowl, trembled. He looked at the young female across from him in astonishment.
He truly hadn’t imagined that this clever witch would go to such lengths for Yuan Lang.
But the Snow Tiger Tribe Leader remained calm. He set down his pottery bowl and said, "If you wish to become mates with Yuan Lang, you’ll need his consent. I cannot agree on his behalf."
The smile on the witch’s face faltered. She thought of that tall, handsome figure, of his coldness and how he ignored her every time they met, and she felt her confidence drain away.
The entire reason she had come to the Snow Tiger Tribe Leader with such generous terms was to pressure Yuan Lang through the tribe, forcing him to agree to become her mate.
But from the Snow Tiger Tribe Leader’s reaction, it seemed the conditions she’d offered weren’t enough to make him do so.
’It’s all because of that damn Shuishan Tribe...’
Thinking of the biggest upset at the gathering, the Yan Yan Tribe’s witch seethed with frustration.
’If it weren’t for the Shuishan Tribe, everything from the Crystal Cores to the method for building houses—even Yuan Lang—could have all been hers.’
She had arrived full of confidence, only to leave with her tail between her legs.
One can only imagine the mood of the Yan Yan Tribe’s witch.
The thought of returning with nothing filled her with a gloomy rage. And then there was that damn female... ’Should I get rid of her before leaving the Snow Tiger Tribe?’
