Yue Dan's chief, Ma Yinghao.
Ji Yunshu wasn't unfamiliar with this name. She more or less knew some of his legendary stories. It was said that he grew up in the mouth of a wolf. At the age of eight, he fought with a wolf and tore its head off, becoming the 'hero' of the grasslands. At the age of thirteen, he went to war with his father. At a young age, he was not only brave, but also ruthless. When he reached adulthood, he led his people to run amok in the grasslands. His ambition became more and more apparent. His father was worried that he would be too eager for quick success and would lead to the destruction of the entire Yue Dan, so before he died, he handed over Yue Dan to his older brother, Huhe Chi. However, Huhe Chi was indecisive and had no ambition at all. In the end, the unstoppable Yue Dan became an arrow at the end of its flight and became a target for others to slaughter. Thus, Ma Yinghao rebelled and killed his own older brother. Since then, Ma Yinghao led his tribe to fight everywhere and annihilate many surrounding tribes. From then on, his name became famous throughout the grasslands.
It was a name that frightened the wind.
And the ambition of a human was enormous!
Ma Yinghao's ambition was even greater. Not only did he want to annex the tribes of the grasslands, but he also wanted to lead his people into the Central Plains.
Seize the throne!
Ji Yunshu finally understood why Yue Dan's people set up camp here.
Because …
Their next target was Hou Liao! For the past hundred years, Hou Liao had been the overlord of this grassland. They were born to be a fighting race. They were forthright, flamboyant, and had an air of arrogance flowing in their bones. They were the typical Xisai people. They had fought their way up from horseback to their current position and stood firm on this grassland.
Many tribes cowered and avoided them. No one dared to contend against them.
Now, with the rise of Yue Dan, the two major tribes were bound to fight to the death.
If Yue Dan wanted to seize the throne of the Central Plains, then they must swallow the fat piece of meat that was Hou Liao!
If Yue Dan was a lion that fought to the death, then Hou Liao was a soaring eagle.
They were equally matched!
Ji Yunshu lay on the ground, feeling a slight pain in her knees. She propped herself up and sat up. She tightly clutched the clothes that Ba Tu had torn off her body. She looked like a frightened little rabbit, but her cold and unyielding eyes carried a trace of fearless arrogance.
Ba Tu clutched his bleeding nose, feeling both angry and wronged. He complained to Ma Yinghao, "Leader, you know what kind of person I, Ba Tu, am. I never steal from others, and others can forget about stealing from me. But this brat Bai Yin barged in and demanded my men. I can't let this go."
This brat had even learned how to complain.
What a naughty child.
Bai Yin remained expressionless in the face of his accusations.
Say whatever you want!
Worst comes to worst, I'll give you another round after we get out.
Ma Yinghao sat at the front with his hands on the table. There was a goat's head on the wall behind him.
His sharp eyes looked at Ba Tu's face and then at Bai Yin.
Then he stood up and walked over.
Ma Yinghao had an intimidating aura. The moment he stood up, the people in the tent couldn't help but lower their eyes in reverence.
He walked in front of Ba Tu and said, "Woman?"
His voice was deep and powerful.
Ba Tu replied, "Yes..."
"Useless thing," Ma Yinghao scolded.
"Leader, it's Bai Yin, he..."
"What a disgrace to the men of Yue Dan." Huhe Hao extended his hand and slapped Ba Tu's face. "You made a woman like this. Tell me, are you not a piece of trash?"
Ba Tu trembled and lowered his head. He didn't forget to glare fiercely at Bai Yin beside him.
Damn it, don't leave after school!
Bai Yin was different from the others. He didn't seem to be afraid of Huhe Hao. In front of him, he was like a cold and aloof wolf.
After reprimanding Ba Tu, Ma Yinghao turned to look at him. His expression was solemn, but more than that, he was disappointed. He pointed at Ji Yunshu on the ground and asked, "Do you like this woman?"
"Yes!" Bai Yin didn't even think about it.
"Why?"
"I just like her."
His words were concise and comprehensive.
Ji Yunshu was stunned. She couldn't see through Bai Yin. Last night, he almost crushed her to death. Today, he 'saved the damsel in distress' and didn't even try to hide his feelings. This person... What was he thinking?
More importantly, she didn't know him!
When he heard Bai Yin say "like", a trace of ridicule flashed across Huhe Hao's face.
He said, "Bai Yin, the men of Yue Dan only have the world. There are no women."
She reminded him!
Bai Yin's eyes were resolute as he told Ma Yinghao, "I want this woman!"
"Haha..." Ma Yinghao laughed loudly.
His laughter made people cower.
He raised his hand and patted Bai Yin's shoulder heavily. "Bai Yin, oh Bai Yin. You've been by my side for so many years, but you've never asked me for anything. This is the first time you're asking me for something, and it's a useless woman?"
There was a hint of disappointment in his astonishment.
Bai Yin glanced at Ji Yunshu and said seriously, "You can choose not to give it to me, but I want this woman."
Bai Yin was probably the only person in the entire Yue Dan who dared to speak to Ma Yinghao like this!
If these words had come from someone else's mouth, that person would probably be dead by now.
Ma Yinghao patted Bai Yin's shoulder forcefully again. His lips curled into a cold smile and his eyes darkened. He walked in front of Ji Yunshu, squatted down, and pinched her chin.
He forced her to meet his gaze.
Ji Yunshu couldn't help but frown when she felt the pain from her chin.
She looked at the face that was so close to her. He wasn't exactly handsome, but he had the charisma of a mature man. He had the unyielding and domineering personality of a nomad. His pitch-black eyes were like that of an eagle, and they were filled with ambition. He was like a bloodthirsty Tibetan mastiff.
This kind of man was extremely dangerous.
As she was sizing up this man, he was sizing her up as well.
This woman couldn't be considered to be devastatingly beautiful.
She didn't have Ji Wanxin's mesmerizing beauty, nor did she have Qin Xi's heart-wrenching beauty.
What she had was a face with a pure heart and few desires. Her eyes were filled with intelligence and wisdom, as if she was indifferent to everything. Even when she was facing this terrifying "Tibetan mastiff", not a trace of fear flashed across her eyes.
This kind of woman was extremely attractive.
It filled people with curiosity and made them want to find out more about her.
Ma Yinghao was no exception.
He had never felt the urge to find out more about her.
No wonder the two men fought over her!
Even Bai Yin, who had never asked him, said he wanted this woman.
He had to admit that he was tempted.
He couldn't help but loosen his grip on Ji Yunshu's chin.
"What's your name?"
Ji Yunshu raised her eyes to look at him and asked, "Is it important?"
"Haha..." He laughed.
