*Step step step…*

Yan Hua had the blonde girl hanging on her back as she continuously moved towards the direction of the Tribe. She had even given her own straw hat to the girl.

The rain from the sky poured down like a waterfall, growing heavier by the moment. Yan Hua’s hair was quickly soaked through.

“Just hold on a bit longer,” Yan Hua kept turning back to say.

She had no Shaman Bone Tablet, nor had she awakened as a Totem Warrior. So, she could not properly threaten the blonde girl.

She was carrying the blonde girl on her back while staying alert of her surroundings. She had one hand supporting the girl and the other holding a spear, ready at any moment.

She could not spare any attention to catch Rain Snakes now. She was only hoping that no dangers would appear at this moment, as she truly could not attend to anything else.

“You are going to be alright. We’re almost at the Tribe.” Yan Hua kept saying.

Yan Hua did not want anything to happen to this girl, regardless of where she came from.

She also could not spare any attention to the rain falling from the sky. The rainwater fell on her head and face, flowing down without any regard. Yet, she did not have a free hand to wipe it away

*Step step step…*

Suddenly, a series of hurried footsteps approached her, particularly distinct among the sound of rain.

“Ah’Hua, what’s wrong?” Sha Lan jumped down from a tree and ran towards Yan Hua.

Sha Lan had spotted her from far up in the trees. What made her worried was how slowly the other person was walking.

Moreover, it seemed like she was carrying someone on her back, so she immediately ran over.

“I found someone over there, she’s injured…” Yan Hua briefly explained what had happened.

Sha Lan stepped behind the cow horned girl to take a look, saying with concern: “But we don’t know who this person is, is it really okay to bring her back to the Tribe?”

Sha Lan remembered the Chieftain’s instructions, and her own Mother had often warned her to be cautious of outsiders too.

“Then what should we do? We can’t just ignore her, can we?” Yan Hua was also helpless, knowing she could not forget what Father had said.

Sha Lan’s face also showed worry as she said, “No matter what, we need to take her back.”

“That’s what I thought too, I just can’t abandon her in the forest.” Yan Hua said.

“There aren’t any Totem Warriors from the Tribe nearby. Otherwise, we could have them take her back.” Sha Lan worriedly said.

At this point, Sha Lan had already caught thirty Rain Snakes, definitely securing first place.

Thus, she need not catch more. However, Yan Hua still needed to continue catching more. If they just took the blonde girl back to the Tribe like this, not only would they be scolded, but Yan Hua’s competition results would also be poor.

“It’s fine, I’ll take her back, you keep hunting for Rain Snakes.” Yan Hua shook her head and said.

“No, I’ll take her back. You can continue catching more.” Sha Lan said with a serious face, then asked, “How many have you caught?”

“About ten or so, anyway I definitely can’t surpass you now. So, let me take her back. You just need to make sure you get first place.” Yan Hua said.

She just felt that between the two of them, at least one of them had to get first place. They were not allowed to lose that spot to others.

“You only have around ten, you’re the one who needs to keep catching more. No one can overtake me for now. So, I’ll take her back first, then return. My victory is already secured.” Sha Lan reached out to take the blonde girl.

“Why don’t we just keep walking? Maybe someone from the Tribe will see us and take over?” Yan Hua suggested.

Sha Lan thoughtfully looked around with her blue eyes, then nodded. “Alright, I’ll help you look for Rain Snakes along the way.”

“You’re so kind, but I don’t think that matters anymore.” Yan Hua now felt the competition was not that important anymore.

What was more important now was quickly getting this girl back to the Tribe, as her life was in danger.

*Step step step…*

*Splash splash…*

*Rumble rumble…*

The sound of footsteps, rain, and thunder kept ringing out as the two continued advancing toward the Tribe.

During this time, Sha Lan kept catching Rain Snakes for the Yan Hua, her expression even more serious than she was hunting for her own Rain Snakes.

*Rustle rustle…* A sound of leaves being brushed aside rang out as a dark figure jumped down from a tree – it was a Totem Warrior, Yue.

“What’s going on? Is someone injured?” Yue asked with furrowed brows, having just spotted them.

However, the rabbit eared girl frowned again, feeling that she had not seen the person on Yan Hua’s back before.

“Sister Yue, this person is injured. We need to quickly take her back to the Tribe.” Yan Hua hurriedly said.

Her hands were already covered in blood, clearly from the blonde girl’s bleeding wounds.

Yue examined the blonde girl and asked, “Where did you find her?”

“In that wide forest area back there, she was just lying there, motionless…” Yan Hua pointed to the direction behind them.

Yue reached out to push aside the blonde girl’s long hair, looked, and said, “It’s fine. We can just take her back. She’s not a Totem Warrior, so the danger she poses isn’t that great.”

Yue originally did not want to take this person back. After all, no one knew who she was, but she felt reassured after seeing she was not a Totem Warrior.

“Can I go back with you, Sister Yue? I’m a bit worried?” Yan Hua asked with concern.

After all, she was the one who found this person, and she really wanted to know what would happen to her.

Yue shook her head and said: “The competition isn’t over yet. If you come back with me, you’ll definitely be punished.”

Yue was quite serious about these matters. She believes once something has started, it needs to be seen through to the end.

“Ah’Hua, let’s just focus on catching more Rain Snakes. We can go back after the competition ends.” Sha Lan also persuaded.

The Tribe’s rules were strict, they could not be easily broken – especially when the person in question was the Chieftain’s Daughter.

“I understand. Yan Hua handed the blonde girl over to Yue.

Yue took the blonde girl and found that her body temperature had already dropped to a dangerous degree- she felt ice cold to the touch.

She frowned and said. “This is serious. Her condition isn’t good. I need to quickly take her back to see the Shaman.”

They were still some distance from the Tribe. So, she could not waste any more time, otherwise the blonde girl would truly die.

“Alright,” Yan Hua immediately replied.

*Step step step…*

Yan Hua watched on as Yue departed before she asked Sha Lan. “Ah’Lan, she’ll be okay, right?”

“She’ll definitely be fine, but why do you seem so worried?” Sha Lan asked.

“I don’t know either, I just don’t want anything to happen to her.” Yan Hua said.

“Don’t think too much about it. Sister Yue is the one taking her back to the Tribe. She’ll definitely be fine. Right now, what’s most important is catching Rain Snakes.” Sha Lan reminded.

“Yeah, I need to work hard.” Yan Hua raised her long spear and said.
