Ch164.1 – Extra: Glorious Homecoming

Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji were back?

The priest had been waiting for the two of them for a long time, and didn’t think twice about running outside as soon as he heard the news.

As for the Mountain Wolf Tribe or something... although he hadn’t dealt with this Mountain Wolf Tribe for long, he was already very annoyed with them and didn’t want to talk to the people from that tribe at all!

The priest ran off too quickly, and the people of the Mountain Wolf Tribe who weren’t able to stop him were left a bit confused.

The Mountain Wolf Tribe was a big tribe that wasn’t any smaller than the original Giant Tiger Tribe. As this dark-skinned fatty had said, his father, the tribal chief of the Mountain Wolf Tribe, was a high level Beast Warrior.

The tribal chief of the Mountain Wolf Tribe was called Xi Shi. However, he wasn’t a normal rhinoceros, but was instead an Elasmotherium.

Elasmotherium was a type of rhinoceros with a shoulder height of up to three and a half meters. Their body length measured up to eight meters long, and they weighed up to eight tons. They also had a long horn on their forehead that could grow to two meters long.

This species was slightly smaller than a mammoth, but it was also bigger than many dinosaurs, not to mention that Xi Shi was a high level Beast Warrior, and his animal form was much bigger than normal.

Xi Shi was originally not from the Mountain Wolf Tribe, but rather from the Beastman Continent. After he came to the wild forest, he wandered around and lived alone, but later, he came to the vicinity of the Big Snow Mountain by accident. After he came into contact with the people of the Mountain Wolf Tribe on Big Snow Mountain and started to like the daughter of the previous Mountain Wolf Tribe tribal chief’s daughter, he joined the Mountain Wolf Tribe.

At the start, when Ma Xiao of the Giant Tiger Tribe had come to the Big Bear Tribe to try and spy on them and gather more information, he’d said that he was from Big Snow Mountain. However, while he’d made it up, the people in front of them now from the Mountain Wolf Tribe were genuinely from Big Snow Mountain.

However, there was some falsehood in this young fatty’s words. For example, they hadn’t told the truth about how far away they were from the Big Bear Tribe––it took at least a month to travel from the Big Snow Mountain to the Big Bear Tribe!

And they hadn’t come here this time because Xi Shi had asked for pottery.

The dark-skinned fatty was named Lang Sha. He was Xi Shi’s eldest son. Although he had a powerful father, he hadn’t inherited his father’s animal form, and his animal form was that of a wolf.

Of course, the fact that his animal form was relatively large due to his father’s care was also indisputable.

Lang Sha’s animal form was that of a Kenai Peninsula Wolf. Its body length could reach two meters, standing at one meter tall at the shoulder, and its weight could reach one hundred kilograms. It was one of the largest varieties of wolves, and the only type of wolf that could match it in weight was the Arctic Wolf, which was Lang Yin’s animal form.

However, one’s animal form did not always represent their fighting power. At least, Lang Sha and Lang Yin’s fighting power wasn’t very good. Even if they had the same level of strength as One-Eyed Wolf, if they fought her, they would likely lose and be killed by One-Eyed Wolf, who was an ordinary grey wolf.

Lang Sha had left his tribe this time because Xi Shi had felt that his eldest son was too weak and had driven him out of the tribe. He wanted him to experience the world outside and hone his strength.

However, Lang Sha didn’t want to train. After leaving the tribe, he hid behind the people his mother had sent to follow him and spent every day thinking about how to return.

While he was out experiencing the world, he inadvertently learned that the Big Bear Tribe had pottery. Knowing that his father liked pottery, he hurriedly made his way over, wanting to obtain pottery from the Big Bear Tribe to give to his father so that his father would allow him to return to the tribe.

Of course, the above had little to do with the present situation.

At present...

Growing up in such an environment, with his father as a powerhouse, Lang Sha had always been full of himself and looked down on the surrounding small tribes. The people around him were also like that.

Of course, they had the strength to look down on other tribes––the 50 people that Lang Sha had brought with him weren’t weak, and there were even several low level Beast Warriors amongst them whose strength was on par with that of Xiong Qi’s.

“This Big Bear Tribe is really shameless.” Lang Sha snorted coldly.

The people of the Mountain Wolf Tribe who had come here with him heard this and agreed, “Young chief, these people are too ignorant. I think we should teach them a lesson!”

“Yes, young chief, we must let them experience the strength of our Mountain Wolf Tribe!”

“Later, we’ll have them give us all their pottery in order to make amends!”

The people of the Mountain Wolf Tribe began to discuss this matter, and at this time, the priest had already arrived outside the tribe grounds, “Where’s Zhou Ji? Where’s Xiong Ye?”

There were other people who had also run over here together, including people who didn’t want to receive the Mountain Wolf Tribe. This included Xiong He, who had found a place to settle in, “Where’s Zhou Ji? Where’s Xiong Ye?”

As soon as the priest saw Xiong He, who constantly refused to study properly, he became filled with anger. “Xiong He, didn’t you say you were very busy? Are you free now?”

“Priest, Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji are back. Even if I’m very busy, I still need to make time for this!” Xiong He ran a hand through his hair and accidentally pulled out a few more strands.

How heartbreaking!

As for the priest... the priest wore an animal leather hat so that he wouldn’t be able to touch his hair so easily and cause his hair to leave him––he didn’t want to experience the pain of parting.

Alright, this wasn’t the time to talk about hair... The priest and Xiong He looked at the person who had brought the news, “Where are Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji?”

“They are on their way and should arrive when the sun goes down.” The person replied, “I immediately ran back to report after our patrol ran into them!”

There was still a long time to go before the sun went down! The priest felt a little lost and asked, “How are they? They’re not hurt, right?”

That person from the patrol said, “They look great, and they have more people!”

Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji not only looked great, they looked like they were doing incredibly well!

In fact, he hadn’t wanted to come back. He wanted to talk to those who had followed Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji to the Beastman Continent and learn more about the outside world, but he was the fastest person on the patrol team and had been forced to come back...

This man was a little sad when he thought of this.

“More people? Did they save more people again?” The priest said, “There’s a lot of people in our tribe. Will we be able to feed them if there are more?”

Xiong He said, “If we can’t settle them here, we can send them to the Green Hill Tribe area and have them live there.”

“It’s quite far away. How will we hold the Beast God Sacrifice if we split up? There’s only an old priest like me left in the tribe, and there’s nobody to pick up my job...” The priest tried to persuade Xiong He to study properly every day.

“Priest, I’m going to go meet them!” Xiong He didn’t want to listen to the priest’s cajoling every day, pumped his legs, and ran out.

The priest: “......”

The priest wanted to go, too, but he had old bones now. He couldn’t run as fast as Xiong He and therefore couldn’t catch up.

Not only that... the people of the Mountain Wolf Tribe had also come out of the valley. “Priest of the Big Bear Tribe, you actually left us behind in the valley and ignored us... What do you mean by that?”

“Haha, something came up...” The priest laughed awkwardly.

“For a small tribe like yours, what could be more important than entertaining us?” Lang Sha asked.

.

Priest: “......” He felt that any casual matter in their tribe was more important than that of entertaining the Mountain Wolf Tribe!

However, this Lang Sha appeared very powerful, and he didn’t dare not entertain him.

Lang Sha’s father was a high level Beast Warrior, but in their tribe, they only had two medium level Beast Warriors, Xiong Ye and Zhu Zhan.

Although the people who had originally belonged to the Green Hill Tribe who had gone out to trade for salt had said that Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji were Beast Kings when they returned, he didn’t dare to believe it.

“You’d better hurry up and prepare food for us. And pottery! Hurry up and give me your pottery!” Lang Sha demanded.

The priest was helpless and had people go and make food. As for pottery... they’d wait until Zhou Ji and Xiong Ye were back!

Lang Sha watched as the priest went off to work and spoke to his subordinates, “This kind of small tribe is simply not fast enough when they do things. They’re just slow! If you don’t beat them a bit, they’re unwilling to work hard!”

His men all agreed, “The young chief is wise!”

“That’s right!”

“Sometimes, they need to be beaten a dozen times before they’ll listen!”

......

While the priest asked people to prepare food to entertain Lang Sha and his group, Zhou Ji and the others were walking back to the Big Bear Tribe with the patrol they’d encountered.

When the Big Bear Tribe’s patrol team had first seen them, they’d been very excited and had huddled around to chat and gossip. They asked if they’d really gone to the Beastman Continent, and asked what the Beastman Continent was like.

But now, these people were no longer talking, and they all looked like they’d fallen into a daze.

Because after they’d called out ‘Zhou Ji’ by name, a group of people dressed in clothing had come to educate them, telling them that they couldn’t call out the name of the Beast God directly.

Call out... the Beast God’s name?

They didn’t know what the Beast God was called. How could they call out the Beast God’s name?

These people couldn’t quite understand, but then they learned that... Zhou Ji was the Beast God.

Zhou Ji was the Beast God. They were actually in the same tribe as the Beast God...

All the members of the Big Bear Tribe’s patrol team fell into a trance and followed blindly behind the main group.

“We’re almost there. Let’s speed up a bit.” They were still walking when Zhou Ji suddenly spoke up.

The people who were carrying him immediately responded and picked up the pace when they heard Zhou Ji’s request, and the others sped up as well.

In this team, the ones who had originally been the most unable to keep up and dragged them back had been the priests of the Beast God Temple. However, the priests had followed them the whole way from the Beast God Temple, and their bodies had slowly been trained up. One by one, they became tanned from the sun, and their bodies had also bulked up.

Additionally, they were priests who had eaten well from a young age. Even if their animal forms weren’t great, they weren’t the worst either. At this time, they were all able to walk swiftly.

Only... they no longer looked like priests.

The priests sighed in their hearts and picked up their pace.

As they walked on, they came across Xiong He.

“Xiong Ye, Zhou Ji, you’re finally back!” Xiong He felt a burst of excitement when he saw Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji, but when he saw the whole group of people clearly, he started to feel like he couldn’t believe what he was seeing.

Those cubs of theirs who had followed Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji to go and trade for salt were all wearing clothing!

When they had those long robes on their bodies, they immediately looked different from before!

As for Zhou Ji and Xiong Ye... Xiong Ye’s change wasn’t a big deal. At most, he’d just put on some good looking clothes and made himself appear more radiant, but Zhou Ji...

Zhou Ji’s chair was really beautiful! He was lying on the chair looking like someone high up above and particularly different from everyone else.

At the same time, the other people in the team also didn’t appear so simple.

Some of these people were young, and some were old. Not only did most of them wear clothing, they all looked very proper.

Xiong He already knew that Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji had brought back some people, but at the time, he’d thought that these people should have been brought back by Zhou Ji to do some manual work. Now, when he saw these people... they didn’t seem to be able to do work!

Xiong He thought about this as he looked over the priests who had taken care of themselves and appeared particularly clean.
