Chapter 329: with translation of chapter title

~7 min read 1,217 words

Yuan Lang, who was scattering medicine powder on the other Beastfolk nearby, heard this and a faint smile appeared in his eyes—this medicine powder isn't exactly made from those gu worms, is it!

Their bundles not only contained this already-prepared medicine powder, but also some semi-finished products; the little female had specifically instructed that if they encountered those gu worms, after killing them they could be dried and made into new medicine powder.

But this is a tribal secret; would the astute commander say such a thing?

Of course he wouldn't!

At this time they still didn't know that the Beastfolk and gu shamans from the tribes outside the forest were heading toward them.

After a brief rest, the Black Wolf Shaman stood up: 'Let's hurry; that gu shaman doesn't know what method he's using, but no matter how we change direction, they always accurately track our position.'

Now, reaching the tribe as soon as possible is the only safe option.

The beastmen buried the leftover food remnants, then casually set off again.

But this time, a very familiar chilly sensation constantly lingered around the Black Wolf Shaman, making him feel as if that gu shaman was watching him.

At the same time, Yuan Lang's heart suddenly surged with a strong sense of danger.

'We've been watched; everyone be careful.'

As Yuan Lang's words fell, a Black Wolf Tribe Beastman Warrior turned his large wolf head, displeased, and said: 'You're just a lowly silver-rank three-pattern Beastfolk; what do you know? How dare you give orders here!'

The surrounding Snow Tiger Beastmen, hearing this, instantly glared at the speaking Black Wolf Tribe Beastfolk: 'Yuan Lang is our leader; what status do you have to speak to him like that?'

The faces of the Snow Tiger Tribe Beastman Warriors were grim; they had kindly escorted the other tribe's Shaman back, but these Black Wolf Tribe Beastfolk seemed not worth their help.

Most importantly, the Black Wolf Tribe Beastman Warriors' gazes were also indifferent; even the Black Wolf Shaman simply sat astride the tribe Beastfolk's back, his eyes deep as he looked at them.

Yuan Lang snorted coldly, after looking around he turned to the Black Wolf Shaman: 'You've only just crossed the Black Wolf Tribe's territory and already show your true colors—how laughable.'

Since the Black Wolf Tribe isn't welcoming, we'll leave first.

Having said that, ignoring the Black Wolf Shaman's grim expression, he led the Snow Tiger Beastman Warriors and turned to run in another direction.

Watching the Snow Tiger Beastmen's retreating figures, the Black Wolf Shaman's indifferent expression gradually grew complex; he then slightly bent his back and let out a deep sigh.

The Black Wolf Tribe Beastman Warrior who had spoken earlier stepped forward: 'Shaman, let's go.'

The Black Wolf Shaman glanced at him, said nothing, just patted the black wolf's back beneath him: 'Go, speed up.'

If the gu shaman had previously been wary of their Black Wolf and Snow Tiger alliance, but now the Snow Tiger have left, leaving only a few of them, whether they can return to the tribe today is truly uncertain.

All the way marching swiftly, the Black Wolf Shaman's worried thing finally didn't happen—the gu shaman didn't pursue them, and the journey was very peaceful.

The Black Wolf Shaman rubbed his nearly worn-out buttocks, grimaced at the Beastfolk beside him, and said: 'Go hunt and come back; we'll eat something and continue the journey.'

'Journey? To see the Beast God?'

As the Black Wolf Shaman's words fell, a harsh, grating voice sounded in the forest, and with his unpleasant laugh, the whole forest grew a bit darker and colder.

The Black Wolf Shaman's face changed drastically; he abruptly turned toward the direction the voice came from—a pure human male wrapped in black Beastfolk bao guo sat on the back of a great scorpion, grinning savagely at them.

'You really can run, making me chase you this long.'

He said this while descending from the scorpion Beastfolk's back.

The moment he landed, a swarm of black-red worms surged from beneath his feet, circling around him, occasionally probing toward the Black Wolf Shaman and his companions, emitting sharp hissing sounds.

The Black Wolf Shaman stared at him, his expression extremely embarrassed: 'What, you're targeting me?'

The gu shaman let out a harsh, unpleasant laugh: 'It's not easy to come to the Polar Forest; of course I must achieve some goals...'

His gloomy eyes hid excitement as he looked at the Black Wolf Shaman: 'If you can answer my question, I might consider not making you into nests for my little ones—how about that?'

The Black Wolf Shaman pressed his lips, looking at the gu shaman: 'My Black Wolf Tribe has no Beastman Warriors who fear death.'

The gu shaman pinched a black-red gu worm on his body, gently stroking it, seemingly not hearing his previous words, and said directly: 'I just want to ask about a female; you only need to tell me her name.'

The Black Wolf Shaman's heart jumped; the gu shaman's mention of a female made him instinctively think of Wu Yue.

'Which female are you asking about?'

The gu shaman's pupils turned scarlet, his face twisted with excitement as he looked at him: 'The female in the Snow Tiger Tribe who possesses pure shamanic power.'

'Pure shamanic power?'

The Black Wolf Shaman frowned at him: 'The shaman disciple in the Snow Tiger Tribe is a female, but I've heard you already killed her.'

Besides her, there are no other female Shaman Disciples.'

The gu shaman's face stiffened; the Black Wolf Shaman could clearly see his fury in his feral eyes: 'That reptile-like female—how could she compare to one with pure shamanic power!'

He let out a harsh laugh, his gaze toward the Black Wolf Shaman and his party revealing undisguised killing intent: 'It seems the Snow Tiger Tribe is still hiding something from you, an outsider shaman.'

He tossed the gu worm from his hand to the ground, turned back onto the great scorpion's back, and said indifferently: 'If they're useless, then kill them; these few Beastfolk are enough for me to add some new little ones.'

Thinking of the fate of his tribe's members earlier, the Black Wolf Shaman's shamanic power suddenly erupted: 'You really think I have no temper, don't you?'

Shamanic power wrapped around the surrounding sand and stones, suddenly striking the scorpion Beastfolk opposite; the stones even pierced the abdomens and eyes of several scorpion Beastfolk.

The gu shaman behind looked at the two injured Beastfolk with a blank expression: 'Useless things.'

But the instant his words fell, the gu worms he had originally left in front also began to emit painful hisses.

In the blink of an eye, over a dozen gu worms had died.

The Gu Shaman's expression changed instantly, his face ferocious as he looked at the Black Wolf Shaman opposite: "I originally thought just killing a few of you would be fine, but you actually dared to harm my little ones."

Having said that, he emitted a hiss similar to that of the gu insects from his mouth, and invisible ripples spread across his body.

The gu insects ahead, as if having received some order, swiftly charged toward the Black Wolf Shaman and the Black Wolf Tribe Beastman Warriors.
