“At least we’ll have the protection of sorcerers, so don’t panic if anything happens in the future. Stay calm; your life is more important,” Gu Chaoyan reassured Adams.

Adams felt a mix of surprise and gratitude. Her previous stern stance during Percy’s incident had left an impression, making his unexpected protection by the sorcerers all the more touching. When they arrived at the Huang Clan, they thought their two clans would face a bleak fate, but now armed with weapons and sorcerers, they felt a newfound sense of security.

Despite the Thunder Fire Clan having little to offer, Gu Chaoyan’s willingness to protect them at this critical juncture left Adams deeply thankful. “I understand. No matter what, our Thunder Fire Clan will do our best to assist your Five Elements Clan,” he promised.

Gu Chaoyan acknowledged his pledge but harbored reservations, knowing the Thunder Fire Clan’s limited capacity to help in this situation.

Observing the troubling scene ahead, where the Huang Clan seemed to be confining and attacking members of other clans, Gu Chaoyan reconsidered their course of action. To ensure her clansmen’s safety, she proposed descending the mountain instead of proceeding to the Huang Clan.

“Let’s see if we can choose to go down the mountain,” she suggested.

“Let’s give it a try. It seems there aren’t many Huang Clan members at the foot of the mountain,” Adams agreed.

Gu Chaoyan nodded, and they set their course to explore this alternative route down the mountain.

They attempted to cautiously descend the mountain alongside the Five Elements Clan. However, their retreat was short-lived as a group of armed youths from the Huang Clan emerged, encircling them from behind.

The leader, wearing a cold expression, approached, questioning, “Why? Where do you intend to go?”

“Do you think you can freely come and go within the Huang Clan’s territory?”

“In the beginning, it was your Huang Clan that allowed us to come and go freely! If you don’t let us leave now, what sets you apart from bandits?” A member from the Thunder Fire Clan, feeling deceived, raised his voice in protest.

The Huang Clan members responded with mocking laughter.

‘Bandits?’

They saw themselves as not bandits but entities aspiring to assert control in this region.

“Didn’t you come here out of greed for the Huang Clan? You can only blame yourselves for your avarice. If you didn’t covet it before, how could you end up in such a predicament?” the Huang Clan member self-righteously asserted.

Gu Chaoyan signaled to the Thunder Fire Clan member to cease arguing with someone who had their own motivations. Though the Thunder Fire Clan member appeared reluctant, he refrained from further words.

Yet, the Huang Clan member lingered, locking eyes with him and smirking, “Do you now understand your place?”

“Since that’s the case, I’ll leave you as a complete corpse!”

In the next moment…

The machete was raised.

As the scent of blood permeated the air, the person’s head fell to the ground.

Adams, fueled by anger, wanted to rush forward, but Gu Chaoyan restrained him. Acting impulsively could lead to dire consequences, especially since this person seemed indifferent to Adams’ affiliation with the clan.

As the crowd ahead scattered, the individual with the cold expression declared, “Aren’t you moving? Does anyone else wish to meet my blade?”

Gu Chaoyan took Adams by the hand, leading the two tribes forward.

The designated territory, however, differed from the description given earlier. Instead of a mountainous area, they found themselves in a vast, empty space. People from various races were huddled in groups, with no room to set up even an animal skin tent.
