I Became The Chief Of A Primitive Village

Chapter 658, Worried About Leaving

Translator: Silavin

*Whoosh whoosh whoosh…*

In the sky, a massive hot air balloon drifted slowly through the air, the flames on its heating device burning vigorously.

Yan Hua remained as bored as ever, her heart set only on returning to the Tribe quickly, appearing completely devoid of vitality.

This time they had only one hot air balloon departing, while the other remained at the Sea Fish Tribe.

Similarly, not as many people had left, with half staying at the Sea Fish Tribe.

The reason for leaving them behind was to help Co Co, as Co Co had just reclaimed her own Tribe.

In addition, she wanted to manage the Sea Fish Tribe properly, thinking of returning to the Flame Dragon Tribe once everything was back on track.

Leaving her alone at the Sea Fish Tribe was certainly unrealistic, though the Totem Warriors of the Sea Insect Tribe were all dead.

But the remaining Warrior Trainees were still a threat, so several Totem Warriors had been left behind to help her.

“By the way, do you think Co Co can manage the Sea Fish Tribe properly?” Yan Hua suddenly perked up.

Yan Hua had been rather listless, but thinking about this made her curious.

“She should be able to. After experiencing all this, she’s certainly matured a lot.” Sha Lan speculated.

Sha Lan had not been very confident at first, but since Su Bai had left several Totem Warriors, she had not thought too much about it.

Qing Mu and Chi Tu, who were quite capable, had stayed behind, as well as Cheng Shi. They would be able to promptly detect any problems.

“Let’s hurry back to the Tribe to tell the Shaman.” Yan Hua said, eager to return to the Tribe.

During these days away from the Tribe, only the night assault had been rather thrilling.

The rest of the time had been very boring, and she already missed the Tribe’s training grounds.

Being stuck on the hot air balloon every day meant no training, while having to deal with that Peak Eagle…

It was particularly clingy, constantly making various calls that caught one off guard.

She simply could not shake it off, though fortunately, it had not caused trouble during the mission.

It had helped to some extent, so she did not want to fuss about it and just let it follow her.

“It looks like it wants to follow us back to the Tribe,” Sha Lan also glanced at the Peak Eagle.

“Yes, there’s no helping it. Who told me to save it? If it wants to follow me, there’s nothing I can do…” Yan Hua said with a wave of her hand.

Yan Hua was rather laid-back about having a wild beast wanting to follow her.

Since it could help at crucial moments anyway, it could be considered an assistant.

“It seems like it will grow quite large in the future. Then, it won’t be able to stand on your shoulder,” Sha Lan said with a giggle, covering her mouth.

Sha Lan was eager to see what this Peak Eagle would look like when grown, as it would certainly be spectacular.

“Will it really grow that big?” Yan Hua was rather stunned, not knowing this.

“Of course, it will be several times its current size, just like… just like the same size as you.” Sha Lan’s mind raced quickly, continuing, “No, no, no, it will be even larger than you.”

“How do you know these things? But it looks quite small now.” Yan Hua asked.

“I heard my Mother mention it before. She’s seen this type of beast before and said they’re very large.” Sha Lan explained.

Sha Lan’s Mother was already a Mid Grade Totem Warrior, so naturally she had seen and heard more.

“I see. Being larger is good.” Yan Hua’s face began showing a smile.

She was already imagining what it would be like riding on this Peak Eagle’s back in the future. It would certainly be magnificent.

“I wonder how long it will stay with you?” Sha Lan murmured.

Sha Lan was not certain that all wild beasts could remain close to Humans. Perhaps now was only temporary.

Since it had just been rescued, it was following out of gratitude now, but it might change its mind in a few days.

Wild beasts were not like Humans and probably could not stay with one person forever. Leaving midway was not impossible.

“Yes, I’m now just worried it will leave.” Yan Hua unconsciously stroked the Peak Eagle’s wing.

*Screech….*

The Peak Eagle seemed to understand, immediately calling out as if expressing that it would not leave.

“In any case, being willing to follow you now is a good thing. It can help to some extent,” Sha Lan said softly.

Sha Lan was quite envious, having a wild beast willing to follow oneself and help at crucial moments was a great boon.

“But I don’t know how to feed it. It seems rather picky…” Yan Hua fell into distress.

“It should eat some raw meat. All wild beasts are like that,” Sha Lan guessed.

Apart from herbivores, other wild beasts ate raw meat, so it should not be too difficult to feed.

“Never mind. These past two days it’s been going out to find food itself, so I shouldn’t need to worry.” Yan Hua muttered.

*Screech!*

The Peak Eagle called out again, this time as if expressing that they need not worry.

“I can already faintly see the Tribe,” Sha Lan said, looking into the distance through the telescope.

Sha Lan would take the binoculars and look every so often, truly eager to return home.

“Great! We can finally go back!” Yan Hua immediately laughed aloud.

*Whoosh whoosh whoosh…*

The hot air balloon continued flying through the sky, flying for several more hours.

Night had now fallen, with smoky blue moonlight shrouding the entire earth, everything appearing grey and hazy.

*Step step step…*

Yan Hua and Sha Lan ran straight towards the Yong’an Building upon landing, while the others went to report to the Chieftain.

“Shaman, we’re back!” Yan Hua said happily.

“Nothing happened this time, did it?” Su Bai asked, standing up.

He had already known beforehand that they’d arrived, as the patrolling and guard duty Warriors had reported in advance.

“This mission went very smoothly. Nothing happened to us.” Yan Hua immediately said.

Yan Hua picked up a water cup and gulped down several mouthfuls, feeling that even the water tasted better in the Tribe.

These past days in the Wilderness, they had not been able to drink boiled water, only river water.

Having drunk boiled water for quite some time, suddenly drinking unboiled water felt strange.

“It’s good that nothing happened,” Su Bai said with satisfaction.

The girls being able to complete the mission perfectly was great news. Of course, there had been some worry initially. After all, this meant them having ten Totem Warriors deal with an entire Tribe, and these Totem Warriors had only just recently awakened.

“Co Co is staying at the Sea Fish Tribe for now, saying she’ll return once things are sorted out.” Sha Lan said softly.

“That’s to be expected. Did you leave Totem Warriors to help her?” Su Bai was more concerned about Co Co’s safety.

“Yes,” Sha Lan nodded.
