Chapter 648 You Cant Help Us (2/2)

“Why are you here?” someone that was carrying Bo Gu asked a nearby Flaming Horn tribesperson.

Luo didn’t look away from the beast while replying, “Our Grand Elder said that you may need our help so we’re here.”

“Why would he think that?”

“Because he is the Grand Elder.”

This answer made it hard for Bo Gu to continue asking questions. He couldn’t tell what their intentions were but he was still grateful towards them.

The truth was that most of the Flaming Horn tribe members wanted to stay anyway but after Shao Xuan did some knot divination, he immediately ordered the ships to change their course and head back.

The shaman looked at Shao Xuan. Before he could convey his gratefulness, he made a decision.

“More!”

The Gu people that had just caught their breaths got up once again, the battle hasn’t ended.

The beast had broken a lot of the nets but many were still on its body. However, those nets didn’t have much effect on it alone so they had to add on or repair the nets so that it worked efficiently.

Bo Gu’s position has already been replaced by someone else. He didn’t have any ability to fight now so he could only watch from afar.

“Do you need any more help?” asked Tuo.

“No, thank you so much, we can do the rest,” said Bo Gu.

The Flaming Horn tribe appeared at the correct moment to give the Gu tribe the time they needed. What they had to do now was just follow the shaman’s orders to add on the nets. Would they really succeed just like that?

Bo Gu felt uneasy. Although they gained experience after the first wave of attacks, many of them were injured now so their movements were restricted.

The beast was getting too close to the centre of the tribe. This didn’t leave much time for the others.

“Do you really not need help?” Tuo asked again. They really wanted to do more. Although they weren’t sure they could kill it, they were willing to try. They did the same for similar beasts they found in the forest.

Bo Gu shook his head and said, “No, you really can’t help us.”

This made Tuo unhappy but they had to admit it was true. It wasn’t that beneficial for the Flaming Horn tribe people to move now. For starters, the Gu tribe fire seed aura was too strong for them in the centre. This would affect their strength greatly.

They would need their full powers when facing a beast like this. Their years of hunting experience told them that any slight mistake here would cost them their lives. It wouldn't be worth it for them to lose their life over a battle that wasn’t theirs.

Secondly, the Gu tribe was working as one unit despite the number of people. The Flaming Horn people would mess up their coordination if they joined.

Knowing that, Tuo and the others didn’t move forwards but only helped the occasionally injured warrior out. No one could bad mouth the Flaming Horns for this. This was considered a very kind gesture compared to how other tribes would have acted.

For now, they could really only just watch and wait.

No, something’s not right. Tuo realised something. Their Grand Elder wasn’t back yet!
