Chapter 297 The Giant Bear Tribe's Sincerity
Lin Baiyan quickly pressed him back down, saying, "No need to go through all that trouble."
Xiong Chong looked at him blankly.
Lin Baiyan smiled and stepped aside, instantly exposing the elders who had been eavesdropping at the door to him.
Xiong Chong: "..."
Is he seeing things? Otherwise, how could he see the Silver Fox Clan and its elders and priests?
Fox Zhen, who was hiding by the door, coughed lightly, straightened his clean animal skin clothes, and walked in first.
Hu Bing remained unfazed, and even Hu Luan looked very serious.
Lin Baiyan glanced at them with amusement.
"Chief Hu Luan, Chief Hu Zhen, Priest Hu Bing..."
"How did you get here?" Xiong Chong asked, his face full of confusion.
Fox Zhen stroked his beard and looked at Xiong Chong with a smile, "I am no longer the patriarch of the Silver Fox Clan."
Hu Luan, who was standing next to him, nodded in agreement, "I am no longer the patriarch of the Silver Tiger Clan."
Xiong Chong was full of questions. What did he mean? Could it be that Hu Zhen and Hu Luan had stepped down?
The elders understood the confusion in his eyes, but remained silent, all turning their gaze to Lin Baiyan at the front.
Lin Baiyan smiled and said, "The Silver Fox Clan, the Silver Tiger Clan, and the Azure Flame Tribe have merged. We are now all citizens of the City of Ten Thousand Beasts."
"The City of Ten Thousand Beasts?" This only confused Xiong Chong more.
However, he understood one thing from it: these tribes had merged into one large tribe without anyone knowing.
Xiong Chong looked bitter. It seemed that their information was still too outdated. Such a big event had not been reported to them at all.
Lin Baiyan nodded. "Currently, I am the High Priest of the City of Ten Thousand Beasts, Lang Cang is the City Lord, and these are all elders of the City of Ten Thousand Beasts."
Xiong Chong was even more shocked when he heard this. You must know that the Silver Tiger Clan and the Silver Fox Clan are among the five major tribes in the north. The Silver Fox is cunning and arrogant, and the Silver Tiger is brave and warlike. How could these two tribes so easily submit to other tribes?
What kind of magic does the Azure Flame Tribe possess?
At this moment, Xiong Chong's gaze towards Lin Baiyan and Lang Cang changed.
If he still doesn't understand now, then all those years he's been the captain of the hunting team have been for nothing.
From the very beginning, the identity that the Cangyan Tribe claimed to have was all fake. Lin Baiyan was not the young chieftain of the Cangyan Tribe at all, and there was no old chieftain above him. The real chieftain was this male beastman, Lang Cang, who had just come of age.
Just like the Giant Bear Tribe back then, it's probably because their leader was young that they said that to the outside world. Everything back then was fake, and perhaps only their names were real.
However, facts have proven that what they did was absolutely right. A weak leader can be easily bullied, and their Giant Bear tribe proved this point.
The thought of his clansmen being left with no clue as to their fate, his family destroyed, and his eyes grew even dimmer.
Lin Baiyan noticed the dejection in Xiong Chu's eyes. "Don't think about it too much. Get some rest. I need to discuss this matter with the other elders."
His words immediately jolted Xiong Chong awake. Yes, now that the three tribes had merged, their fighting strength must be even greater, which was a good thing for their Giant Bear tribe!
Xiong Chong's expression suddenly became excited. "City Lord, High Priest, please consider this carefully."
For some reason, he added, "If my people can be rescued, the Giant Bear Tribe is willing to become an annex of the City of Ten Thousand Beasts."
You should know that life in the subordinate tribes is not easy. Not only do they have to hand over grain to the main tribe every year and do odd jobs, but they also have to be at the forefront during wartime, almost like cannon fodder.
Most importantly, once they become a subordinate tribe, their offspring will be subordinate to the tribe for generations, the lowest of the low, with a status only slightly better than orcs who are spoils of war.
No tribe would willingly become a subordinate tribe of another unless absolutely necessary.
The elders were shocked to hear Xiong Chong's words. A glint flashed in Hu Zhen's eyes. "In the Giant Bear Tribe, can you make the decisions?"
Xiong Chong nodded solemnly, "Before I left, Zhi had already entrusted the hopes of the entire Giant Bear Tribe to me."
Hu Luan nudged the cunning old fox beside him with annoyance. "Is this the time to talk about this? Their tribe is facing annihilation!"
Fox Zhen rolled his eyes at the silly tiger, annoyed. Who was he doing this for? Wasn't it all for the sake of making the power of the City of Ten Thousand Beasts even stronger?
A thoughtful look flashed across Lang Cang's eyes. "You should get some rest first."
Lin Baiyan also shook his head, "This is not something I can decide alone. We have to wait for our elders' council to make a decision."
Xiong Chong forced a smile, suppressing his eagerness, "Okay, okay..."
After Lin Baiyan left the room, he said to the male orc beside him, "Send Xiong Chong some hot food over there. Also, don't let him leave the room easily."
There are too many people and too many eyes in the tribe now, and Xiong Chong is an orc from another tribe with such serious injuries, so it's best to let him stay inside for now.
The male orc nodded very seriously. "High Priest, rest assured, I will follow him wherever he goes." I will absolutely not let this brown bear have a chance to escape!
Lin Baiyan: "..."
"There's no need to treat him like a thief," he quickly explained. "Once he's a bit better, he can go out for some fresh air if he wants."
He knew a bit about the character of the Giant Bear Tribe, and besides, Xiong Chong didn't even know the exact location of their tribe.
The male orc was a little confused. Should he be allowed to go out or not?
Lang Cang glanced at him sideways, "Come and report back when his injuries have healed a bit."
Hu Shun's heart skipped a beat, and he loudly replied, "Yes, City Lord!"
Lin Baiyan shook his head with amusement. These male beastmen were as docile as mice in front of a cat when they saw Lang Cang.
Lin Baiyan turned around and looked at the crowd behind him with a solemn expression. "Elders, let's go to the activity room to gather."
The Chaoxiong tribe came with a menacing air, their intentions clearly hostile.
The giant bear tribe was probably just an appetizer for them.
The elders also had serious faces.
Inside the activity room, Lin Baiyan and Lang Cang sat in the main seats, the young man's fair and slender fingers gently tapping the table in front of him.
Da da da…
Lin Baiyan looked around and slowly asked, "What are your thoughts on what Xiong Chong just said?"
The table was silent for a long time.
Finally, Hu Luan couldn't stand the silence any longer and spoke first, "High Priest, we can't let the Chaoxiong tribe be so arrogant!"
