Adams glanced at his companions, who had already covered some ground, and were still a fair distance from the Five Elements Clan.

“I won’t return today. I’ll spend the night here and discuss matters with the Five Elements Clan tomorrow,” Adams declared. He had contemplated this during their journey and had made the necessary arrangements.

Surveying their surroundings, he determined it was a suitable place for temporary rest. There were no immediate threats from wild beasts, and they should be able to forage for wild fruits to satisfy their hunger. The meat they had brought was still in their possession, which could serve as a backup if needed.

Returning home and then coming back the next day seemed both exhausting and unproductive.

“But regardless, the Five Elements Clan seems unwilling to cooperate. How can we negotiate when that woman desires something other than meat?” A member of the Thunder Fire Clan voiced their frustration.

Various suggestions had been proposed, yet nothing seemed satisfactory. The sense of humiliation they were experiencing was unprecedented.

Adams’ expression grew stern as he stated, “Didn’t that woman assert that being the wife of the Thunder Fire Clan’s Tribe Chief was an affront to her? She’s the Tribe Chief of her own clan, and she’ll remain in that role. In the future, even if she marries someone, she’ll have to continue leading the Five Elements Clan.”

“In that case, I’ll consent.”

“I joined the Five Elements Clan to look after the Five Elements Clan, and, at the same time, the Thunder Fire Clan has integrated with the Five Elements Clan.”

“At this stage, it’s highly unlikely she won’t agree, right?” Adams inquired.

“Tribe Chief! Are we really going to do this? We’re letting that woman off too easily!” The Thunder Fire Clan members expressed their reluctance.

The integration of the Thunder Fire Clan and the Tribe Chief’s affiliation with the Five Elements Clan seemed like an act of yielding too much ground. Concerns about the future of the Thunder Fire Clan arose—there appeared to be no discernible benefits, only potential losses.

Adams reassured them, “What’s there to worry about? We’re just beginning this journey. We have plenty of time ahead to gradually achieve our goals.”

While the Thunder Fire Clan members still harbored some discontent, they ultimately relented. Even if they didn’t endure the consequences, the Tribe Chief would.

“Remember, she’s still a woman. She used to be quite infatuated with me. Now, perhaps she’s being influenced by someone else. However, if I join the Five Elements Clan and remain by her side day and night, I can make her listen to me and willingly adapt. So, what’s the cause for concern?” Adams spoke with confidence.

His situation differed from Xuelai’s. Xuelai was the Patriarch’s only daughter and thus assumed the role of Tribe Chief by birthright. However, the Thunder Fire Clan followed different customs. Adams’ father was one of the Patriarch’s brothers, and to secure his position as Tribe Chief, he needed to employ cunning strategies. Reclaiming what was rightfully his was only a matter of time, a mere formality.

Since the clansmen couldn’t dissuade him, they ceased their attempts. The Tribe Chief had a clear plan, and when he officially joined the Five Elements Clan, the rest of the Thunder Fire Clan members would naturally follow suit. This journey would bring them into close contact with the weapons of the Five Elements Clan.

As time went on, they gradually acquired their own weaponry. The Thunder Fire Clan’s numbers were significant, and in this scenario, even if that woman didn’t heed the Tribe Chief’s guidance, they possessed the capability to overpower the Five Elements Clan and stage a resurgence.

With this realization, they decided to bide their time for the moment.
