446 Glad tidings for the Takji clan (1/2)

Towards Reef’s inquiry, Sheyan chortled and replied.

“To conduct a transaction. Relax, I too am a man of principle.”

Reef silently nodded and continued.

“I trust you.”

Observing the flight direction of the overlord, it became astonishingly clear their destination was the Takji clan.

****************

Between 2-3 kilometres from the Takji clan’s Hometree, Sheyan hopped off the overlord. Apart from the ex-patriarch’s mighty Mountain Banshee, their archery capabilities weren’t weak as well. To impulsively approach inside an overlord may trigger an unnecessary air crash.

When they entered a kilometre proximity of the Hometree, several Takji clan members noticed them; however, upon identifying Sheyan, they immediately spurred their direhorses and shamelessly fled afar. This happened until Sheyan arrived in front of their Hometree, greeted by the scene of the Takji clan’s current patriarch, Murru, and their Tsahir, Mourbo. Both stood at the entrance with crestfallen expression, filled with utter disgrace.

“My brother, please forgive my cowardice in battle. We only chose to retreat after receiving admonishing from the Divine Eywa’s oracle. It is absolutely not because of danger!!”

Murru stretched out both arms as he persuaded with great anguish. His face was distorted with haggardness and wilt, and both his eyes were bloodshot; indicating his sincere honestly. Sheyan released a long sigh and replied.

“Alright, my friend, I can understand your feelings and I respect your faith. We are after all, brothers; this matter…...just treat it as it had never happened before.”

Murru shook his head in heartache, as tears streamed down his eyes.

“I’m no longer fit to be your brother, I’m a coward who runs from battles.”

Murru drew out his bone saber smoothly and offered the saber’s shaft to Sheyan.

“Please end this life of humiliation. This way, I can then be at ease.”

Shedding crocodile tears by the side, Tsahir Mourbo suddenly turned flustered as he hurriedly hugged his child.

“Ah! My child, don’t do this. It was I who had forced you to retreat, this blame should be placed on me!”

Sheyan watched on with cold detachment, he obviously could see through the hypocritical show of affection within the deepest bones of Tsahir Mourbo. Instead, it was that brat Murru who was truly genuine. Presently, Sheyan didn’t wish to waste any time and straightforwardly sheathed Mourbo’s bone-saber back into its scabbard. Then, he stepped before Murru and interrupted.

“Since I’ve already said this matter had never happened, then this matter concludes here. Do you want to turn me into someone who renegades on his words? However, Murru, my return this time is earnestly to ask you something.”

Upon hearing that, Murru immediately turned eager and asked.

“What is it?”

At this moment, Brother Black’s face abruptly revealed a peculiar expression; a licentious look of unspeakable wretchedness, analogous to how Edison Chen would lead an innocent model into a brothel. He licked his thick lips and answered for Sheyan.

(TN: Mogensha probably caught up to them already. Also, Edison Chen is an actor in Hong Kong who is also known for scandals with other actresses)

“I seem to recall you mentioning before, lasses from the Mosake clan aren’t bad eh?”

Murru was stupefied as he glanced nervously at his old dad before replying.

“Did I say…. I really said that?”

Borther Black instantly knew Murru was trying to hide this embarrassing deed, and also noticed the gloomy look on that old fart Mourbo, as though a family disciplinary session was round the corner. Soon, several others also faced away to the sky to mask their giggles.

Nevertheless, this topic Mogensha raised triggered a commotion from all the males who shared the same opinion. The Takji clan had all along not been strict with their internal hierarchy; hence, several eavesdropping Takji warriors started butting into the conversation, similarly attempting to liven up the mood.

“Yeah man, yeah man!”

“Although the corrupted Mosake clan had lost favour from Goddess Nature, on the contrary, their women had become exceedingly alluring!”

“Rumours has it, it is because of their corrupted sacrificial temples they built.”

“Indeed, they are far more pleasing to the eyes than our worn-out women.”

“Those voluptuous chests that looks amazing to touch.”
