I Became The Chief Of A Primitive Village

Chapter 838, The Tiger Eared Girl’s Transformation

Translator: Silavin

Since Yini and the others had departed from the Flame Dragon Tribe last time, they had been back at the Earth Tiger Tribe for some time now.

The tiger eared girl spent each day eagerly anticipating another opportunity to visit the Flame Dragon Tribe. That previous visit had remained constantly on her mind.

After returning to the Tribe, she had appeared somewhat unhappy, feeling that nothing she ate tasted particularly good.

“I desperately want to return to the Flame Dragon Tribe to eat their food. Our food tastes absolutely dreadful.” Yini released a deep sigh.

Yini had grown noticeably thinner since the beginning. Previously, her face had still carried a slight fullness. Now, looking at her facial contours, the lines were particularly pronounced without any sense of softness.

One could immediately tell she had become quite gaunt. Clearly, she had not been eating properly recently.

“We can only return when it’s time to exchange goods again. Otherwise, there’s no way to go back.” Ci said helplessly.

Naturally, she also wanted to return to the Flame Dragon Tribe, especially since there were people she knew there.

The young woman had previously enjoyed an excellent relationship with Lu Zi, so being able to see her again would certainly be delightful.

However, now they belonged to different Tribes. In the Primitive Era, that was simply how things worked; if one belonged to different Tribes, they were fundamentally different people. They might still be friends, but there was no way to become close companions as they had been before.

The only possibility would be if their two Tribes merged into a single Tribe, only then could they become close friends again.

“When will we next go to the Flame Dragon Tribe to trade? Can we go sooner?” Yini was growing somewhat impatient.

After visiting the Flame Dragon Tribe, the tiger eared girl no longer enjoyed staying at the Earth Tiger Tribe.

No matter how she looked at the Earth Tiger Tribe, it gave her an unpleasant feeling, and the more she observed, the more irritated she became. Particularly after eating the Earth Tiger Tribe’s food, this irritated feeling grew increasingly intense.

“I don’t know. We need to see how the Chieftain arranges it. Only after he makes arrangements can we possibly go again.” Ci waved her hands.

Naturally, she also desperately wanted to visit the Flame Dragon Tribe again, but everything depended entirely on the Chieftain’s arrangements.

“But, the last time we exchanged an enormous quantity of items. I suspect we won’t be going again so soon, will we?” Yini actually didn’t harbour particularly high expectations.

Initially, she had held considerable hope, thinking they might be able to reach the Flame Dragon Tribe quickly, but then she reconsidered the volume of goods they had exchanged for last time and abandoned that notion.

“If only we’d known the Flame Dragon Tribe was this excellent, we shouldn’t have exchanged so much at once. That way we could have made a second trip.” Ci also felt somewhat regretful.

“Why don’t I speak with Father again? Perhaps he’ll actually allow us to make another trip?” Yini suggested.

“You’re right. The Chieftain is your Father. Maybe he’ll listen to your words.” Ci suddenly understood.

“Let’s go, let’s go. I’ll ask him right now. I hope the answer will be favourable.” Yini was filled with tremendous expectations.

Ci observed how her companion’s blue eyes continuously sparkled, immediately understanding her determination.

She nodded repeatedly, smiling, “Then everything depends on you. I hope we receive good news.”

“Don’t worry, don’t worry. I’ll do my utmost to persuade Father.” Yini wore an expression of absolute confidence.

*Step step step…*

The tiger eared girl immediately strode towards the Chieftain’s wooden house, her pace considerably faster than usual.

More than ten minutes later, Yini arrived at the Chieftain’s wooden house and explained the entire situation from beginning to end.

After finishing, she immediately lowered her head, actually somewhat concerned about being scolded.

“You’re saying you want to visit the Flame Dragon Tribe?” Hu Huzi asked seriously.

He was the Earth Tiger Tribe’s Chieftain, approximately forty-five years old, a Mid-Stage Totem Warrior.

The pair of orange tiger ears atop his head were particularly conspicuous. His blue hair and blue eyes were identical to the tiger eared girl’s.

The only difference was that he appeared extraordinarily rotund, completely lacking any sense of tiger-like majesty.

His pair of blue eyes were also remarkably small, his nose was tremendously large, and his mouth was like a sausage.

He looked nothing like a Chieftain, even less like a Mid-Stage Totem Warrior.

Overall, Hu Huzi’ appearance was thoroughly unattractive, completely incomparable to Yini’s looks.

Fortunately, the tiger eared girl hadn’t inherited her Father’s appearance. Otherwise, she would likely now be sporting a sausage mouth and tiny eyes.

“Yes, Father. Can I visit the Flame Dragon Tribe once more?” Yini persisted in asking.

“Last time you mentioned the Flame Dragon Tribe was amazing, and now you want to visit again. Is this Tribe truly that remarkable?” Hu Huzi wore an expression of complete bewilderment.

He certainly acknowledged that the Flame Dragon Tribe’s goods were exceptional, but regarding his daughter’s descriptions of the Flame Dragon Tribe, he wasn’t entirely convinced.

It was quite possible that all these goods from the Flame Dragon Tribe had been plundered from other Tribes. Therefore, he didn’t want to reach premature conclusions.

“Everything I’ve said is true. The Flame Dragon Tribe is genuinely excellent; I’m not deceiving you.” Yini declared with absolute confidence.

“Very well. Since you’re so eager to visit the Flame Dragon Tribe, I also have a mission for you. I can’t simply allow you to waste time running back and forth.” Hu Huzi ultimately couldn’t resist his daughter.

“What mission? I absolutely guarantee to complete it.” Yini immediately stood up.

The tiger eared girl instantly wore an expression of confidence. She didn’t even care what the mission entailed. Though, as long as she could visit the Flame Dragon Tribe again, everything would be fine.

“This mission requires you to investigate the Flame Dragon Tribe. Discover where they obtain all their goods.” Hu Huzi instructed.

Deep down, he still didn’t entirely trust the Flame Dragon Tribe. He wanted his Daughter to investigate first.

If she could discover which Tribe those goods originated from, he could establish direct contact with those Tribes. This way, he could save up on a ton of dried meat. He wouldn’t need to spend so much on each trade with the Flame Dragon Tribe.

The Earth Tiger Tribe was ultimately a Small Tribe, so they couldn’t continuously provide such large quantities of dried meat for their trades.

However, he thoroughly appreciated those goods. Asking him to not live with them was hard.

“Is that the only mission? Then I absolutely guarantee I will get it done.” Yini felt this mission was far too simple.

The Flame Dragon Tribe had so many people. Simply asking a few random individuals would reveal the information.

“Be cautious. Don’t let the Flame Dragon Tribe’s people realise you’re investigating the source of their goods.” Hu Huzi warned.

“Don’t you trust your own Daughter? I’ll be extremely careful.” Yini immediately agreed.

The young woman no longer possessed that previously gentle and quiet demeanour. Instead, she had become remarkably lively.

Perhaps encountering the Flame Dragon Tribe had caused her personality to transform so dramatically.

“Go on then.” Hu Huzi waved his hand dismissively.

He found his Daughter’s transformation somewhat troublesome. Previously, she had been extraordinarily gentle and quiet. Now…
