When the soldiers on patrol hurried over, they only saw two severely injured men on the ground. One of them passed out after the bird pecked him. They didn’t know if he was still alive.
After fixing the broken fence, the Lu tribesmen turned back to take a few more glances at the bird. The Flaming Horn’s bird was already back in his nest. Initially they thought this bird might mistreat their dumb birds, but now they knew. This bird was not hostile to their birds at all and even protected them. See? Didn’t he just catch two bird thieves?
No one in the forest dared to make a move again that night, probably because the two thieves were caught.
The next day, the well-rested Flaming Horns walked out of the Lu tribe. The Lu tribesmen provided them with food, but they also brought some fearsome beast jerky of their own. Fearsome beast jerky could give them more energy. After replenishing their energy, they didn’t get to work right away. Shao Xuan told them his plan already. There would be enough time for them to rest and recharge while digesting the food. This resting period was for them to power up the energy within their bodies and make sure they were in their best conditions later.
The Lu chief Bai Xing was already up early that morning. He was curious how the Flaming Horns were going to deal with those people in the forest.
Dian Fa and the other Thousand Masks were still in the Lu tribe and had not left. One reason was that they were waiting for the Lu tribe’s final decision. Secondly, they also wanted to watch the Flaming Horns’ next move.
Shao Xuan stretched his arms and looked up into the sky. Cha Cha had already finished hunting and was already flying in circles in the sky. Shao Xuan blew a whistle and he flew down immediately.
Hopping onto the eagle’s back, they lifted off the ground. As they ascended, Shao Xuan’s vision grew wider and he could see far into the woods.
After inhaling deeply, Shao Xuan shouted loudly, “Listen up, all of you in the forest. By noon, only Flaming Horns are allowed to remain in the forest. Everyone else must leave by then. If you don’t, we’ll kill all of you!”
His voice thundered across the forest like the roar of a fearsome beast.
Shao Xuan made sure to shout the same message again in the language used on the other side to make sure these people understood what he said.
Gan Qie was already a part of the Flaming Horn tribe, so this statement was technically correct.
His voice reached far and wide and the echoes slowly faded as it reached the mountains.
In the forest, many began to grumble and all of them reacted differently to this message.
“Hmph! How arrogant!”
“What tribe is the Flaming Horn tribe again?”
“When’s noon?”
“Or else they’ll kill all of us? Can they even kill us? Hahaha!”
Meanwhile.
In the forest, Wu He and some others were chatting with some old friends who came from the other side. When they heard this message, they immediately dropped the food in their hands and ran away.
“My Chang Le brothers, why are you guys running?” the person who was boasting to Wu He and the others asked when he saw their reactions.
“If you don’t, you’ll really die!” Wu He blew a sharp whistle and waited for his long-winged birds to arrive. As soon as their birds arrived, they would immediately escape from the forest. No matter how much they wanted to watch the commotion, they had to stay far away and make sure they were not involved, or else they would be in big trouble if the Flaming Horns got the wrong idea.
They weren’t afraid of any other Flaming Horns, only Shao Xuan, and he was the person who shouted this message. Hearing this, they suddenly recalled the painful sensation they felt back then when they were slapped down by the giant hand in the sky.
Those friends of theirs were surprised when they saw the Chang Le’s reactions. It was as if they saw their deadliest enemies.
“When did the Chang Le’s become such cowards?” someone asked doubtfully. Didn’t they used to enjoy watching drama?
“Leader, what should we do?” someone turned around and asked his leader. This was the person who was talking with Wu He just now.
Their leader thought deeply for a moment and then said, “Let’s wait and see for now. If something doesn’t seem right later, we will leave immediately.” Even though the Chang Le’s were known for their love for drama, they were also very alert and sensitive to dangers. It didn’t seem at all like Wu He and the others were putting on an act.
As he thought about this, his brows knitted with concern. It hadn’t been long since they arrived on this continent, so they weren’t familiar with the Flaming Horn tribe. However, since this concerned their lives, they were going to take it seriously. They came here to exploit the benefits, not to lose their lives.
After Shao Xuan shouted his message, he looked for a spot to rest. The Lu tribesmen all looked at him with widened eyes.
“Is it really okay to yell it out to them so directly?” a Lu elder whispered. It was clear he didn’t agree with what Shao Xuan did. There are many other methods to get rid of these people in the forest. They could’ve been less direct with their message. The Flaming Horns were too uncivilised and barbaric.
Dian Fa also felt that these Flaming Horns were out of their minds. Did they really think this was their territory? It was clear that those people in the forest came here long enough and knew everything about the forest. The Flaming Horns had just arrived the day before and weren’t even that familiar with the forest. Obviously the Flaming Horns were at a disadvantage.
Yan Jiu wanted to ask Shao Xuan what his plan was and wondered if the Flaming Horns thought about changing their minds. However, seeing how Shao Xuan was resting on the side and how the other Flaming Horns seemed to have no objections, he could only sigh while he waited. He was still very concerned about this plan.
The sun was slowly rising above their heads and their shadows shortened as the sun rose.
Shao Xuan opened his eyes and looked up at the sun. He got up to his feet and motioned for the others to rise.
“It’s time!”
The Flaming Horns were all prepared and energetic. On Shao Xuan’s command, they all headed out of the Lu tribe together.
At the boundary, some Lu tribesmen were already pulling the gates open for the Flaming Horns to exit. They watched the Flaming Horns curiously. Were these people really planning to head straight into the forest like this?
As soon as he stepped out of the boundary line, Shao Xuan summoned the totemic energy in his body. This energy was like boiled water within his body, immediately bubbling to the surface. Totemic lines surfaced and red flames covered his body.
Suddenly, everyone behind Shao Xuan began to transform in the same way.
Two, three, five, ten, hundred,…
From far away, these similar totemic lines and flames made them seem connected as a group.
It was as if someone lit a match and threw it into a pot of hot boiling oil. Instantly this pot erupted like a volcano. Their fighting spirit was ignited and this strong energy was constantly rising and spreading across the land.
“The fire… fire seed’s senergy!” the Lu shaman was shocked at the sight. He was invited to the Flaming Horn Grand Feast back then and something similar happened back then too. Even though this was not his first time seeing this, he was still taken aback.
This was the power of the fire seed!
Even if the Flaming Horns no longer had a primitive fire seed, their fire seed’s energy and its innate powers lived on within their bodies. This energy was like a spark within them, ready to start a destructive fire any time.
“For Flaming Horn! Kill!”
At the word “kill”, Shao Xuan stomped his feet on the ground violently.
There was a loud bam. The ground did not split open but a strong energy was sent downwards. This energy travelled so far that even the two stones at the Lu tribe’s gates were shaking. The Lu tribesmen and Thousand Masks tribesmen all trembled as the tremors numbed their feet.
