Chapter 99 - Taking Over (2/2)
“I’m here to give you guys some news… I killed Hu Tian.” Xiong Ye said.
The people of the Giant Tiger Tribe had already guessed this, but now that it was confirmed, it became difficult to accept. Hu Yun didn’t think twice before saying, “Kill him! Kill him!”
For the people of the Green Hill Tribe, Hu Tian was a demon, and they couldn’t wait to eat him up alive, but for the people of the Giant Tiger Tribe, Hu Tian was their hero, the one who had led them to live good lives.
There was nobody who didn’t worship Hu Tian in the Giant Tiger Tribe.
Now that Hu Tian was dead… Someone immediately rushed towards Xiong Ye, and others threw spears at him, trying to avenge Hu Tian.
Xiong Ye changed straight into his animal form and didn’t try to hide. Instead, he charged straight at Hu Yun.
There were spears aimed at him, but he dodged most of them, and as for the rest… He grabbed someone from the Giant Tiger Tribe who was charging at him and threw him forward…
Some of the spears struck this man’s body and killed him directly, but Xiong Ye was completely fine. He was occasionally struck by spears, but they were unable to break through his thick fur and stop his progress.
His goal was Hu Yun.
Hu Yun also realized this and immediately changed into his animal form.
Hu Yun’s animal form was that of an ordinary tiger, and his size as a tiger wasn’t very big. It was only about as big as Hu Yue.
He wasn’t even a low level Beast Warrior, and his strength wasn’t higher than Hu Yue’s either.
Xiong Ye had been able to win against Hu Yue even when he wasn’t a low level Beast Warrior. Now that he had become a medium level Beast Warrior…
Xiong Ye swiped out with a paw and swatted Hu Yun to death.
After swatting Hu Yun to death, Xiong Ye turned around and ran away. He ran a few steps, then turned back into his human form, “The warriors of our tribe will arrive soon. I won’t fight against you all today and will come back again in a few days!”
With that, Xiong Ye ran off.
The people of the Giant Tiger Tribe wanted to go after him, but they didn’t dare to and could only stay behind with ugly expressions on their faces.
The Big Bear Tribe was very strong… What were they going to do?
“All of the information that Ma Xiao brought back was false! On the other hand, it’s possible that what the people of the Big Bear Tribe had said to Hu Tiao before was true… There really are powerful people in their tribe!”
“When we fought against the people of the Big Bear Tribe before, we saw some of the slaves that we had driven away… Not only did the Big Bear Tribe not kill these people who are nothing but a waste of food, they also fattened them up. The Big Bear Tribe must be very strong.”
“What are we going to do now?”
……
Hu Tian was dead, and Hu Yun had also died. The core people of the Giant Tiger Tribe fell apart all of a sudden.
At the moment, there were still over a thousand people in the Giant Tiger Tribe, of which about seven or eight hundred of them had decent fighting capabilities. There were a few low level Beast Warriors amongst them, but at the moment, none of them were willing to listen to each other, and they had all started to quarrel.
At this time, Xiong Ye had arrived at a place not too far away, where the people of the Big Bear Tribe had settled down. He turned back into his human form, covered himself with an animal hide, then said to Zhu Zhan, “We’ll go over there tomorrow and kill a few people!”
Zhu Zhan agreed.
Xiong Ye’s approach towards the Giant Tiger Tribe couldn’t be considered brilliant, but it was really quite interesting. He felt that he needed to learn from it.
In the future… He might be able to deal with his own brothers in such a way.
The people of the Giant Tiger Tribe were frightened for an entire day.
Some of them wanted to stay behind and fight against the people of the Big Bear Tribe, but others wanted to run away, and neither side had the means to make the other party submit. It was at this time that Xiong Ye and Zhu Zhan arrived. They killed off the most powerful people of the Giant Tiger Tribe, then stated that if they continued on like this, their powerhouse would destroy the Giant Tiger Tribe completely when they arrived.
Some people wanted to kill the slaves in order to vent their anger when they heard this, but others immediately rushed up to stop them. “We can’t harm these slaves! If the Big Bear Tribe is really that powerful…”
“They can’t be that powerful! If they were so powerful, why didn’t they come and attack us before?” Someone else immediately argued against them.
If it had been before, the people of the Giant Tiger Tribe would’ve believed these words. Now, however…
“There are some tribes that don’t like to fight.”
“Maybe they originally… were too lazy to deal with us.”
“Those two people are as powerful as Hu Tian. We can’t win against them, and it’s better to quickly leave.”
……
There were a lot of people in the Giant Tiger Tribe, and it wasn’t easy for them to all stay together. Before, they had remained unified because of Hu Tian’s strength, but now that the situation had come to this, the tribe was unable to maintain a united front.
After they thought about it, they finally decided to leave.
They had eaten almost all the food available here and were supposed to leave here anyway. Now, rather than staying behind to get killed by the Big Bear Tribe, it was better to run off a little earlier.
The people of the Giant Tiger Tribe packed up and ran away overnight. They didn’t bring the troublesome slaves with them, afraid to bring them along.
The Big Bear Tribe obviously valued those slaves. What would they do if they brought them with them, and the people of the Big Bear Tribe chased after them because of it?
Xiong Ye had threatened and scared them before, precisely because he hoped that the Giant Tiger Tribe would run away on its own.
The Giant Tiger Tribe had too many people, making it very difficult if they wanted to win against them. They also didn’t enjoy killing and weren’t interested in doing things like indiscriminately killing all the men and women, young and elderly of the Giant Tiger Tribe. Since that was the case, it was enough for them to drive off the people of the Giant Tiger Tribe.
As for the slaves… They could save them and then absorb them into their tribe!
The Big Bear Tribe was short of people right now!
The people of the Giant Tiger Tribe ran away, and Xiong Ye led his team of only eighty people and happily entered the place where the Green Hill Tribe once lived.
The place was covered in the smell of blood and rot, and each and every one of the slaves who had been left in the tribe were in poor condition…
Xiong Ye frowned as soon as he entered. Meanwhile, the people of the Green Hill Tribe had already gone in and found the other survivors of their tribe, clutching their heads as they wailed in grief.
This scene… Xiong Ye sighed internally as he looked on, but he was also incredibly glad at the same time, glad that the Big Bear Tribe hadn’t encountered a catastrophe like this.
“Thank you all!”
“Thank you! ”
“You’re all such good people!”
……
The rescued slaves knelt down to thank Xiong Ye one by one.
“Don’t thank me…” Xiong Ye couldn’t help but be a little embarrassed when faced with this situation, but he was also a little happy.
He was truly very happy to have been able to save some of these people.
Due to this, he even began to worry that the Giant Tiger Tribe would attack other tribes once they left this place.
Should he and Zhu Zhan chase after the Giant Tiger Tribe and kill some more of their powerful fighters?
While Xiong Ye was still thinking, a man suddenly jumped out from amongst the slaves. He was holding a knife as he struck out at Xiong Ye.
Xiong Ye was caught unprepared, and that knife actually managed to stab into his stomach.
However, his reaction speed wasn’t slow. The knife had only just cut his skin when he turned back into his animal form. With his thick fur as protection, the man could no longer harm him, and was instead slapped half to death with a paw from Xiong Ye.
The man fought desperately but was only able to leave a wound about two or three centimeters long on Xiong Ye’s belly.
Zhou Ji, who wasn’t far away, was shocked when he first discovered this scene, but he soon relaxed again-such a small wound didn’t amount to much for Xiong Ye. His injuries had been more serious than this when he fought against the people of the Giant Pig Tribe back at the tribe!
However, Zhou Ji had been relieved too soon.
The person from the Giant Tiger Tribe who had almost been swatted to death by Xiong Ye spat out a mouthful of blood, then began to laugh out loud. At the same time, Xiong Ye’s expression also changed, “There was poison on the knife!”
Nearby, Zhou Ji’s eyes turned red.
