Chapter 664: Beast Tribe World: Raising a Wife 39

~7 min read 1,306 words

The succession ceremony required not only the witness of all tribe members, but also the witness of the current chieftains and priests of several neighboring tribes.

So the open space in front of the ancestral hall was almost packed with people.

People from the other tribes all knew that the incoming chieftain was Jin Chen, but no one knew who would suddenly take over as priest.

They had rushed here early this morning, and were greatly surprised by the development here; in just a short year, the Lion Tribe had completely changed its appearance.

According to the tribe's people, it was all because of their First Warrior and the Wise One—that is, the new priest.

Furthermore, it was said that this new priest, succeeding the Leopard Tribe, was someone who could sense the will of the divine beast.

This made the chieftains and priests of several tribes even more curious.

"So many people."

Yu Wu sighed, went with Du Feng to greet the chief of the Snake Tribe, then searched the crowd for Bai Mo's figure.

"Strange, why hasn't Bai Mo arrived yet?"

He muttered, 'He probably didn't want to be priest and ran away.'

The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed; Yu Wu's playful spirit rose, and he decided to go out to look for his good friend.

"Du Feng, catch the cub."

Yu Wu tossed the little lion who had been looking around to Du Feng, then dashed off in a flash.

"Hey!"

Du Feng caught the cub with a start, eyes wide, and then both let out a sigh.

"Jin Chen! You're here!"

Yu Wu slipped into the chieftain's house, indeed saw Jin Chen, looked around the room but didn't see Bai Mo.

Jin Chen immediately knew who he was looking for: 'Mo Mo is changing into priest robes in the next room.'

"Oh oh oh, got it."

Yu Wu pointed outside, grinning mischievously, 'Just now I heard Leopard Tribe people looking for Bai Mo, saying they wanted to see how he's doing, in a nasty tone.'

If they knew Bai Mo was the formidable new priest, they'd probably be scared to death.

After Yu Wu finished speaking in a bustling manner, he ran to the next room.

Jin Chen frowned and scratched his ear.

Du Feng really has good ears and patience.

"Bai Mo, have you finished changing your clothes?"

Yu Wu poked his head from the doorway, tilted his body to look at Bai Mo, and only when he saw that Bai Mo had already put on the priest robes did his spirits rise.

"Come out and play with me! I just saw the Leopard Tribe warriors, each one wanting to find you; they surely have ill intentions, let's go provoke them!"

The priest robes were sewn with many animal hides and wrapped with complicated fastenings; Bai Mo always felt them inconvenient, and as he lowered his head to adjust them, he heard Yu Wu's voice.

Before he could react, he was pulled out.

"Little Wu, slow down!"

To be honest, Bai Mo was afraid that running would tear these clothes apart; they weren't sturdy at all.

Just as the two stopped, they saw someone approaching—there were Sub-Beasts and males, all followers of the chieftain and priest who had come to attend the ceremony.

"Hey? Isn't that Bai Mo?"

A Sub-Beast recognized him, his gaze strange, 'Bai Mo, what kind of clothes are you wearing?'

"Just ask and you'll know."

"Bai Mo! Do you still remember us?"

Bai Mo had already seen them long ago.

Familiar faces, familiar mocking expressions—these were once Hua Wan's good friends.

"Bai Mo, watch me, I'll make them furious!"

Yu Wu said in his ear, then immediately coughed twice, stepped forward, and blocked Bai Mo.

"Who are you? What do you want to do to our Lion Tribe's new priest?"

The Sub-Beast who had just spoken, Aka, heard this and was stunned for a while, exchanged looks with the few beside him, then burst out laughing.

"Hahahaha Bai Mo… hahahaha! How old are you? Still playing house with others?"

"You?! Still a priest? Hahahaha! You can't think you're worthy just because you're the priest's child!"

"Oh, you killed me laughing, Hua Wan— isn't he also in this tribe? Does Hua Wan know you act like this every day? Hahahaha!"

The mocking laughter continued nonstop; Bai Mo looked at these people, and the corners of his mouth also curled into a smile.

"Hua Wan is dead."

The voice wasn't loud, but it was enough for them to hear clearly.

The laughter stopped abruptly.

Seeing Bai Mo's expression, which didn't look like joking, Aka widened his eyes, 'What do you mean?'

"I say, Hua Wan is already dead; if you want to see him, you can kill yourselves to join him."

The smile on Bai Mo's face became even more obvious.

Yu Wu also laughed and nodded, 'You don't know, do you? Hua Wan indiscriminately hooked up with our tribe's males and even killed someone.'

He was killed directly by our First Warrior!

As Yu Wu spoke, he also glanced at several people with a meaningful look, especially Aka in the middle, 'You are his friends; you wouldn't be like that too, would you?'

"What nonsense are you spouting!"

Aka's expression was astonished; he didn't want to believe what this person said, but regarding the Lion Tribe's affairs…

He is the chieftain's son, has heard a bit about it, but never imagined that this Sub-Beast was Hua Wan.

The male beside Aka suddenly realized, 'No wonder the Lion Tribe's Sub-Beast earlier, upon hearing I was from the Leopard Tribe, asked about Hua Wan and almost wanted to run away.'

So that's how it is, Hua Wan died, and now no one in this tribe knows about your messed-up affairs.

Aka still had a bad attitude toward him: "The ceremony is coming up soon; no matter how much you want to be a priest, you can't pull this stunt now!"

I'm going to complain to your chief soon! Bai Mo, don't think that just because you're here I can't deal with you!

What a coincidence, I also wanted to go see the chief—let's go together.

Bai Mo originally didn't want to get involved, but Yu Wu was right—seeing them suffer would be especially funny.

Just like his former self.

Let's go, then!

Aka snorted, still making Bai Mo walk in front, as if he still treated this tribe as a place where he could do whatever he pleased.

Yu Wu could barely hold back his laughter, clutching Bai Mo's hand and shaking, "Later I'll definitely make them kneel and apologize to you! Otherwise this won't end!"

Hearing Yu Wu's whisper, Bai Mo poked his forehead in annoyance, "You're quite experienced at this sort of thing."

That's right—no one can bully me, and now that we're good friends, of course no one can bully you either!

The group walked mightily to the front of the ancestral hall, seeing Father and the Lion Tribe chief approach; Aka hurried over and took hold of his father's arm.

Father! Look at Bai Mo—he's come to this tribe and still won't quit! He even dares to pretend to be the new priest here, utterly shameless!

The Leopard Tribe chief frowned, glanced at Bai Mo, and said, "What's going on with this kid?!"

"Old Leopard! What are you saying?!"

The chief slapped him across the face.

"Bai Mo is our tribe's new priest!"

Yu Wu took the opportunity to speak loudly, drawing the tribe's attention: "Oh my, you Leopard Tribe are being too oppressive!"

"Back in the Leopard Tribe they bullied Bai Mo, and now they dare to bully him even here—this is going too far!"

"The Leopard Tribe's sub-beast even said he's shameless! Is this how you treat your guests?!"
