Chapter 361: A Powerful Tribe, the You Su Tribe

After Ying carefully helped Nan Qinghuan onto the carriage, Li Xiang still couldn't bear to withdraw his gaze; Duo Luo wasn't jealous now, because she knew Li Xiang had said he loved only her, and Nan Qinghuan was family.

"Li Xiang, don't worry, her womb may carry multiples, but she will surely give birth safely."

Li Xiang hadn't even noticed Nan Qinghuan's pregnancy at all; hearing Duo Luo's words, he stared at her in astonishment, "Multiples, how do you know?"

Nan Qinghuan's belly looked much like any pregnant woman he had seen, so how could Duo Luo claim she would bear several? This is impossible—under such primitive medical conditions, multiples would be dangerous!

Upon hearing this, Li Xiang didn't believe it, but Duo Luo nodded, "Exactly, I couldn't be wrong; once her belly grows further you'll see. Ying's Bone Blood is so strong that Nan Qinghuan will have at least two offspring."

Because of this, Li Xiang grew even more worried—under such primitive conditions, could Nan Qinghuan's childbirth be dangerous? He was truly concerned about that.

Seeming to see through Li Xiang's doubts, Duo Luo quickly reached out and grabbed his hand, "Don't worry, when she goes into labor I'll ask a midwife; she can definitely help your junior sister."

"Midwife?"

Here, Li Xiang worries whether Nan Qinghuan can give birth smoothly, while over there, Yao and the Rongdi, after finishing their meal, began discussing the land exchange.

Unexpectedly, the Rongdi were willing to trade their best land to Yao, with Ying to serve as witness.

After these matters were settled, they should return.

Yao's wedding also drew to a close.

When the Rongdi led Li Xiang and the others away, Yao still stood there to see them off, and Youchao Ji hurried up, "Yao, can we really coexist peacefully with the Rongdi? Is he trustworthy?"

Youchao Ji didn't understand the Rongdi, and hearing that the Rongdi had killed Yao's mother, Ashu, she wasn't pleased.

Yao lowered his eyes, glanced at her, and smiled, "I've thought about it too. If I keep refusing to let him hinder our Tribe's development, Aji, I will make this place the strongest Tribe, so that no one in Jiuzhou can bully us. Understand?"

Youchao Ji hadn't expected the man she liked to think so much; she nodded, "Alright, I'll follow whatever you say, I will help you, I believe the future Youchao Xuan spoke of is arriving."

Hearing this, Yao slightly frowned, "Future, what future?"

What future had Youchao Xuan spoken of? Here, Yao and Youchao Ji whispered to each other; she was telling Yao what future they meant, while the Rongdi led Li Xiang and Duo Luo back.

Halfway there, the Rongdi suddenly stopped moving.

Duo Luo naturally knew why he had halted, "Sorry, Chief, it was my own decision to attend Yao's wedding; please don't blame Li Xiang. It's all my fault—if you're angry, blame only me."

Seeing the Rongdi a bit angry, Li Xiang quickly said, "Chief, don't be angry; it was my suggestion, not Duo Luo's. I've realized that for Road building we must cooperate—hatred is useless. If you must blame anyone, blame me, not Duo Luo."

The Rongdi's sharp eyes scanned the two, then he suddenly laughed—a hearty, boisterous laugh.

This left the two somewhat baffled.

What is he laughing about? "Ha ha, never mind, I never meant to blame you. In fact, you made me take this decision. You're right—hatred is useless. Though I lost that land, we now have a road. Ying plans to build a One Street just outside the Ying Tribe; once we have a road, our people can go out to trade for what they need. Isn't that great?"

Hearing this, Li Xiang was delighted, staring in amazement, "Chief, you think the same?"

That's unbelievable!

I didn't expect the Rongdi to think that way either.

The Rongdi's gaze was distant, yet he still nodded, "For the Tribe and its people, I, the Rongdi, am willing to do anything."

Duo Luo was about to speak when, suddenly, a lone wolf rushed in.

"Bad news, Chief—Ying and the others were attacked by Poison Toads."

These words made Li Xiang even more nervous; thinking of Nan Qinghuan and the child, he hurried, "Where?"

As dusk fell, when the Rongdi and his party arrived, they saw that Ying had already killed the last female toad.

With a splash, he drew a Long Arrow, and Youchao Xuan scanned the surroundings; seeing the ground littered with Poison Toad corpses, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ying, it's fine; they're already dead, killed by us."

With the Poison Toads dead, Nan Qinghuan finally stepped out of the carriage; seeing several of them, she found it very odd—why were these creatures pursuing them so relentlessly?

Weren't the Masai all dead? "Ying"

"Don't come down; it's filthy here. It's fine, the Poison Toads are gone for good."

Nan Qinghuan wasn't scared; she stepped down and glanced at Ashu and the others. Ashu rushed over from that side, "Ying, the Rongdi have also arrived."

When the Rongdi saw the battle had ended here, he gave a bitter smile, "Ying, you're truly impressive—killing so many toads. I was just coming to see."

"No need, this is nothing for me. Why did you come?"

Li Xiang hurried forward, "We heard you were attacked, so we came to check—are you all right?"

Ying tossed his Long Arrow aside, looking proud, "Of course we're fine; I killed them all. Rongdi, you know about these—why do they keep chasing us?"

Hearing this, the Rongdi finally examined the toads closely; when he saw each toad's back bore a seal, he seemed to understand.

"I get it."

Nan Qinghuan saw the Rongdi looking mysterious, hurried forward and asked, "What do you know? Why are these things after us?"

"Ying, look—this wasn't made by a Beast Tamer. What does this seal look like to you?"

Hearing this, Ying finally examined the markings on the toads' backs; it was a Totem.

When he understood, it suddenly clicked.

"I get it—these monsters were deliberately released, and this Totem is…"

"It was made by someone from the You Su Tribe."

"You Su?"

Nan Qinghuan was startled; there was another tribe here? The You Su Tribe.

She no longer hesitated, scrutinizing the strange Totems; indeed, atop the toads' heads was something that looked like a snake.

Having heard it was the You Su Tribe, Ying and the Rongdi exchanged glances, "It's them, that's for sure—we must be more careful."

Mentioning the You Su Tribe made the two men visibly tense.

Nan Qinghuan, however, was intrigued; she hadn't heard of a You Su Tribe nearby, and the last time she attended the Bo Lan Festival, no You Su Tribe was mentioned.

How did they appear just now? And where is this tribe? Why do Ying and the Rongdi seem so wary? She quickly asked, "Ying, why does the You Su Tribe attack us?"
