Chapter 1187: The Stubborn Person

~7 min read 1,311 words

Mainly, they had not expected that they would encounter such familiar faces on the road.

Several Leaders saw that in two more days they would be out of the territory of Huaxia and entering the Suiren Clan, but they did not expect that at this very moment, they would encounter a group of people coming from the opposite direction; upon closer inspection, they were actually all acquaintances.

"Why have you come here!"

When those Soldiers looked, they saw that among the people opposite them, there were actually their own acquaintances; they had originally thought that only people from Huaxia were inside and were feeling quite annoyed, but the scene turned out to be like this.

Once the two sides reached each other, there was none of the expected old-friend reunion or mutual pleasantries; instead, there was a feeling of swords being drawn and bows being bent.

"Liuye, you all are living quite well now, aren't you? You must all be Huaxia people now, right?"

The Leader named Liuye hurriedly pulled his good friend and said, "Zhong, what kind of talk is this?"

He lowered his voice and said, "Zhong, I know you are dissatisfied with Huaxia and do not want to join Huaxia, but this is a matter decided by the Tribal Chief; is our opinion important?

Don't target me; we have had a relationship for so many years, I would certainly not abandon you just because of Huaxia."

Zhong looked at Liuye suspiciously and said, "Then what is this situation? Are you preparing to take Huaxia people to our tribe again? What are you trying to do? Are you taking our tribesmen to Huaxia again?"

Liuye stammered and could not answer, because that was indeed his purpose for going, but being asked so directly, it was still very difficult to answer.

"Liuye, what benefits did Huaxia promise you that could make you harm our tribesmen? Are you preparing to trick my tribesmen into going to Huaxia too, or did the Tribal Chief order me?

Just tell me, what kind of life are your tribesmen living in Huaxia now? Is it better than living in our Suiren Clan?"

Liuye had no way to answer again, because he had not seen what his tribesmen were like now; he had not had time to go see them, and he did not even know where his tribesmen were.

Moreover, if one were to speak clearly now, those people were no longer his tribesmen; his status as a Leader was gone, and he was merely a bodyguard for Chengqie, without the qualifications to manage how the people of Huaxia were living.

"What, Liuye? You don't even know yourself? You can't say?"

"Did you trade your own tribesmen to Huaxia, using your tribesmen to exchange for your wealth?"

Liuye waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, I didn't! I didn't trade my tribesmen to Huaxia! I, I just don't know what they are like now!"

"Don't know? How could you not know? Aren't you living in Huaxia? Haven't you seen your own tribesmen? Have they already been taken by Huaxia to be killed for sacrifice, or were they used as Slaves?

Liuye, why don't you care at all?"

Liuye lowered his head in shame; in his heart, he also felt a little bit of wavering regarding Huaxia, but he still defended himself: "It's not that I didn't go to manage it, but that as soon as I arrived in Huaxia, I was trapped in one place and then kept training, saying that I had to train before I could be a qualified Soldier and could be a bodyguard for Leader Chengqie.

I am now a bodyguard for Leader Chengqie; we all are; we are no longer everyone's Leaders.

We have always been unaware of the situation outside; my tribesmen were also separated from us as soon as we arrived in Huaxia, so I don't know anything; it wasn't until I was about to leave Huaxia that I was released, and only then did I know what the Huaxia outside was really like.

However, Zhong, I have seen what people in other parts of Huaxia look like, as well as the level of Huaxia's wealth; I believe they should not have harmed my tribesmen, after all, they are truly very wealthy.

And they only restricted our movements; they did not restrict anything else, and the training was indeed very useful; I feel that I am much stronger now than before.

Now they don't restrict us anymore either, and they are very good to Leader Chengqie, so I feel that they certainly won't treat our tribesmen too badly."

As he spoke, Liuye even showed off his Knife: "Look, this is the Knife Huaxia gave us; it's Iron, not Gold!

Something with such high value, Huaxia gave it away just like that; you say that since it's like this, how could Huaxia treat our tribesmen badly?"

Zhong's mouth curled into a sneer: "Heh, you just traded your own tribesmen for a Knife like this, right?

And them, are they all the same? Did they all trade their tribesmen for a Knife? You are truly too detestable; are you worthy of the Suiren Clan? Are you worthy of the Tribal Chief!"

Because he roared and scolded like this, the few Leaders who could hear him were now also a bit angry: "Hey, Zhong, if you keep spouting nonsense, we are going to take action; you haven't even been to Huaxia yourself, yet you start insulting us here; do you think that is appropriate?

Does taking a Knife from Huaxia mean we traded our tribesmen to Huaxia?

No, what do you mean by trade? We are all Huaxia people now; our tribesmen are Huaxia's tribesmen; is there any problem with that?

But you, why have you always been so dissatisfied with Huaxia? If you don't want to join Huaxia, then that's up to you; you can just leave the Suiren Clan and leave Huaxia; is there anyone who doesn't allow it?

Did the Tribal Chief not allow it? You can even ignore the Tribal Chief's orders, so are you afraid that the Tribal Chief won't allow you to leave? What is it that you dare not do?"

Zhong was a bit angry: "What nonsense are you talking about! Who said I don't listen to the Tribal Chief? I am the most obedient to the Tribal Chief; I have never disobeyed the Tribal Chief.

I am the most loyal to the Suiren Clan, unlike you people! You are already Huaxia people, not people of the Suiren Clan!"

Liuye pointed his hand directly at Zhong: "Look, look! You still say you listen to the Tribal Chief!

The Tribal Chief has already said that the Suiren Clan is to join Huaxia entirely; now we are all Huaxia people; even the Tribal Chief is a Huaxia person; the Tribal Chief has an Official Seal of Huaxia and holds Nobility in Huaxia.

Even now, the Tribal Chief already has a large courtyard in Huaxia; is there a problem with the Tribal Chief?

On the contrary, it is you, you all, who are unwilling to listen to the Tribal Chief and unwilling to join Huaxia! You have always had opinions about Huaxia!

The Tribal Chief is a Huaxia person now; what, do you want to find a tribesman who is a Huaxia person to be this Tribal Chief? What are you doing?"

Zhong was pushed back repeatedly by the retort, his mouth gasping for air; he was very panicked, but he still hurriedly pulled at his banner.

"I am not saying I don't listen to the Tribal Chief, but I think this matter of joining Huaxia is very unreasonable and not right; how can it be like this?

Therefore, I think we should not listen to the Tribal Chief; our Suiren Clan is the Suiren Clan, not Huaxia!"
