Chapter 531: The Beast Taming Tribe Chief Comes to Thank Them

~7 min read 1,234 words

That Tu never expected that the former chief of the Wolf Tribe and the chief of the Na Shan Tribe would both be willing to stay and live in the Small Town now, let alone that they had become generals here.

General!

This was the first time he had heard that word.

Rongdi stepped forward, somewhat displeased with That Tu; in his view, this visit of his probably had an ulterior motive too!

"That Tu, I am Rongdi."

Yao also stepped forward and locked eyes with That Tu. Both men watched him warily, displeasure clear in their eyes.

In their eyes, That Tu's purpose for coming this time was not straightforward!

"I am Yao."

The two men greeted That Tu. That Tu's gaze fell on them, but he gave an awkward smile. "I really didn't expect you two to be here too. Ying, are they your generals?"

"Yes, they are my generals."

Hearing this, That Tu was filled with admiration—admiration for Ying's ability. How had he convinced them to join the Small Town? He was truly curious about that!

"I want to see my daughter. May I?"

"Chief."

Just then, A Yao ran over and bowed respectfully to him. "Chief, A Le is fine now."

"She's fine?"

"Father."

At that moment, a young girl's crisp voice came from behind. Immediately after, Nan Qinghuan walked slowly toward them, holding the child in her arms. At this moment, everyone was watching her.

Under the brilliant sunlight, Nan Qinghuan walked slowly this way with A Le. When he saw that his daughter was already much better, That Tu immediately strode toward them.

"A Le, Father's good daughter, let Father have a look."

This scene of father and daughter reuniting moved everyone present. Though That Tu was a man, he was a daughter's slave. He held the child in his arms and kissed her repeatedly.

"A Le, Father's A Le, are you better?"

"Father, I'm better. This elder sister saved me. Should we be friends with them?"

A Le, at such a young age, was already getting involved in the tribe's major affairs. Nan Qinghuan found this incredible. Would That Tu believe the words of a child only a few years old? Hearing this, That Tu was first stunned, then he held the child and looked at Nan Qinghuan. For the first time, he spoke words of thanks to a female.

"Thank you. Thank you for saving my daughter. That Tu and the people of the Beast Taming Tribe all thank you."

Having said this, he set the child down and then bowed slightly to Nan Qinghuan in thanks. This was the first time she had seen the way the Ancient People expressed gratitude.

Very unique.

He placed both hands on top of his head and bowed to her, extremely reverent.

Seeing this, Nan Qinghuan just smiled. "You're welcome. A Le is a good child. Her injuries are much better. Don't worry, nothing will happen."

"Wonderful, truly wonderful! My Beast Taming Tribe has an heir, has an heir!"

That Tu was overjoyed and lifted A Le high into the air. In his eyes, A Le was not only his daughter but also the hope of the Beast Taming Tribe. The reason he had come in person this time was also for A Le. If A Le died, then he would have to abdicate and hand over the position of chief to his younger brother.

That was something he absolutely did not want to give up. So, A Le could not die!

He never expected that Nan Qinghuan could actually help him cure his child.

It was truly incredible!

Besides gratitude, he felt even more moved—moved that Nan Qinghuan had saved his child, so he no longer had to worry about his position as chief being replaced!

"Congratulations to the chief, congratulations to the chief!"

Everyone offered him their congratulations. A Le felt like she was going to faint. "Father, put me down. I'm getting dizzy."

"Alright, Father will put you down, put you down."

At this moment, Nan Qinghuan saw a father who cherished his daughter as his very life. So the chief of the Beast Taming Tribe was a daughter's slave.

She never expected that the Ancient People could have such a deep father-daughter bond.

Soon, A Le was set down. Once she was down, Ying quickly stepped forward. "Since you're here, you are a guest. Please, come in."

"Ying, thank you for saving my daughter. To express my gratitude, I have brought some gifts. Please accept them."

Those gifts turned out to be some food and drink, as well as some Salt. The people of the Beast Taming Tribe regarded Salt as an extremely precious thing, so they had essentially brought the most precious things they had.

All for his daughter.

Seeing those gifts, Ying knew that That Tu was serious this time. He had the gifts accepted and entertained him with the highest standard of hospitality.

"Please."

The group walked into the Small Town. After they left, Jiguang quickly stepped forward. "Nan Qinghuan, do you think That Tu truly wants to form an alliance with us?"

Hearing Jiguang's words, Nan Qinghuan furrowed her brows as she watched their departing figures. In her heart, she was also worried, but from the looks of it now, it seemed sincere.

"If he weren't sincere, he wouldn't have brought so few people."

"That's not necessarily true. I've heard that the people of the Beast Taming Tribe rely on beasts to help them fight. We should still be careful. Fewer people doesn't necessarily mean they won't come after us."

Hearing her words, Nan Qinghuan felt they made a lot of sense. "Then what do you suggest we do?"

Jiguang thought for a moment before murmuring, "I have a way we could try?"

"Try? How do we try?"

Over here, Jiguang was discussing matters with Nan Qinghuan. Over there, Ying had people prepare tea to entertain the guests who had come from afar.

When That Tu witnessed the prosperity of the Small Town, he became even more envious of it.

He saw scenes he had never seen before—saw the people here living well, saw those lush green Farmlands. These were all things he had once yearned for.

So... "Come, have some tea."

That Tu held his daughter in his arms, carefully checking the injuries on her body. Finding that they were indeed much better, he became even happier. "Ying, thank you."

"You're welcome. Come, have some tea."

"Tea?"

"Father, try it. It's a very tasty thing. They call it tea leaves."

Little A Le is very clever; after she drank the tea once she recorded its name, and she likes the tea a lot, also wants her sister to send her some to bring to the Beast Taming Tribe.

Of course, she now doesn't want to leave, because she wants to stay here to go to school and study!

She also wants to learn to play the flute!

In just a single day here, she has seen many fun things, all of which piqued her interest.

She likes everything here.

"Tea, A Le has tried it?"

"It's tasty, would you like to try?"

Little A Le personally lifted the pretty cup and handed it to Tu for tea; it was Tu's first time seeing a cup—where they drink, they use bamboo tubes instead of such cups.

"This cup is really beautiful."
