With the fall of Shaman Hei Tu, with Hei Mu and Hei Lin being consumed by fierce flames, the Black Snake Tribesmen were in complete chaos.
Those of the Spotted Deer Tribe, under Xiu’s leadership, were slaughtering indiscriminately. Since the Black Snake Tribe had lost their backbone, they were now nothing more than lambs to the slaughter.
The archers and Totem Warriors of the Flame Dragon Tribe were also continuously attacking, giving those of the Black Snake Tribe no chance to catch their breath. In an instant, the entrance of the Black Snake Tribe was flowing with fresh blood, forming a stark contrast with the raging fires and waves of agonising screams.
The overwhelming smell of blood made Su Bai involuntarily frown. If he had not mentally prepared himself, the sight of so many people dying would have made him vomit. After all, this was the first time he had seen people die before his eyes, and so many at that. Back on Earth, he had only seen such scenes on the television.
Naturally, watching a show was vastly different from experiencing it first hand in real life. No matter how much he watched, it could never compare to witnessing it firsthand. This was especially the case when the current situation was caused by his own commands.
If his mental fortitude was not resilient enough, he would have retreated long ago, instead of standing there, staring intently at the scene.
This massacre lasted for over an hour, with almost all of the Black Snake Tribe’s Totem Warriors dead.
Some were shot with arrows, some had their throats slit, some were cut in half by the waist. All kinds of deaths could be seen.
Of course, those whose heads were directly sliced off and those who were cut in half at the waist were all killed by the Flame Dragon Tribe.
Ordinary stone knives could not achieve this feat. Only the Crocodile Blades forged by the Flame Dragon Tribe could have such an effect.
Xiu put away his stone knife, his face covered in blood. Every time he killed someone, blood splattered onto his face.
He wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, muttering to himself, “How exhilarating! It’s been a long time since I felt this kind of exhilaration!”
When he was in the Spotted Deer Tribe, apart from hunting animals and Ferocious Beasts, he did not have the chance to spill Human blood. Not for a really long time.
However, while pursuing the Black Snake Tribe earlier, he had noticed the weapons of the Flame Dragon Tribe. Those strange curved pieces of what seemed to be ‘wood’ had such immense lethality. That blade, which did not look like it was made of stone, had several times the killing power of his people’s stone knives.
Every time the blade fell, those of the Black Snake Tribe either lost a foot or a hand. The scene was incredibly violent.
Thinking about this, he could not help but feel worried. What if the Spotted Deer Tribe made an enemy out of the Flame Dragon Tribe? He probably would not have much chance of victory despite their difference in numbers. Especially when the Flame Dragon Tribe had this Shaman. His intellect and leadership had allowed the Flame Dragon Tribe to seize this great victory against the Black Snake Tribe despite them being outnumbered. Thus, even if the Spotted Deer Tribe had many more people, Xiu doubted they could win.
[I need to report this to the Shaman.] Xiu was already thinking to himself. No matter what, they must never become enemies of the Flame Dragon Tribe.
Shu Feng, who was nearby, was also amazed. He had not expected the Flame Dragon Tribe to be so powerful. No wonder they were so confident despite having fewer people.
“Chieftain, count the number of injured and dead, then come to me for Shaman Bone Tablets,” Su Bai instructed.
“Yes!” Yan Jiao nodded and turned to have people count the numbers.
Those of the Black Snake Tribe had long been awakened by the noise. Men, women, old, and young had all gathered in the centre of the Tribe, each of them extremely uneasy.
Now, they did not know what fate awaited them – death? Or slavery? Every face was filled with worry.
Su Bai naturally saw these people too and already had ideas about what to do with them.
After about ten minutes, Yan Jiao reported, “Shaman, no one has died. There are forty injured, all from the Spotted Deer Tribe.”
“Give them all the Shaman Bone Tablets you haven’t used.” Su Bai instructed.
He knew, of course, that they had brought their own Shaman Bone Tablets, but since they were fighting for the Flame Dragon Tribe, it was better not to waste their own Shaman Bone Tablets.
Moreover, his speed in crafting Shaman Bone Tablets was several times faster than the Shamans of other Tribes. Others might take several days to craft one Shaman Bone Tablet, but he could craft several in a day. The difference between them was truly frustrating.
“Understood,” Yan Jiao naturally understood what the Shaman was thinking, but still felt a bit reluctant.
He was feeling this way simply due to his own ignorance. He did not know about Su Bai’s speed in crafting Shaman Bone Tablets. If he had known, he definitely could not have felt reluctant.
Half an hour later, the injured from the Spotted Deer Tribe had all recovered thanks to the Shaman Bone Tablets distributed by Yan Jiao.
“Shaman, thank you for your Shaman Bone Tablets. If not for them, we wouldn’t have had enough.” Xiu expressed his gratitude.
Shaman Lu Shan had not given them many Shaman Bone Tablets, only about a dozen. He believed that his Tribesmen would not be fighting too hard, so he believed this number should have been enough.
“Thank you for your help this time. If you have any troubles in the future, you can always come to us,” Su Bai smiled.
In primitive times, reciprocation was the norm. When he was in trouble, they would help him. In return, when they get into trouble, he would help them. It was all about maintaining a trusting relationship.
Of course, the Spotted Deer Tribe’s help this time was all for the sake of the linen, but Su Bai was not the type to be overly calculative. Not against his allies.
Xiu nodded without saying anything more, knowing that the Spotted Deer Tribe would definitely need the Flame Dragon Tribe’s help in the future.
“Chieftain, have people clean up the corpses. We’ll stay in the Black Snake Tribe tonight.” Su Bai instructed.
Yan Jiao was stunned for a moment, looking at the people in the Black Snake Tribe, and asked, “Shaman, what about them?”
“They’re all ordinary people and pose no threat to us. Just have someone watch over them.” Su Bai said, looking at the remaining 100 or so Warrior Trainees of the Black Snake Tribe, and continued, “As for the remaining Warrior Trainees, lock them all up and keep them under guard.”
“Shaman, they are all Warrior Trainees. I think we should kill them. That would be safer for us,” Yan Jiao suggested.
“That’s right, who knows what evil thoughts they might have. It’s better to kill them now.” Cang Shi agreed.
“Let’s keep them. It will be beneficial for us. I have things for them to do.” Su Bai smiled.
Yan Jiao belatedly nodded and said, “Since the Shaman has plans for them, I’ll have them all locked up then.”
Cang Shi did not quite understand. He was scratching the back of his head and muttering, “Are these people really going to be useful?”
“Shaman, are we really going to stay in the Black Snake Tribe tonight?” Yan Hua excitedly asked.
The feeling of finally being able to sleep in the Ancestral Land was simply too wonderful for the cow horned girl.
“Of course, tonight you’ll be able to sleep in a wooden house.” Su Bai smiled. This would also be his first time sleeping in a wooden house in this world.
*Rustle rustle…* Just as Su Bai and the others were chatting, they heard a slight noise coming from the dense forest behind them.
