Lu Chen glanced at him, then nodded. He held Ah-Tu's head in his arms, hugged it tightly, and then slowly pulled it back.
Atsu let out a low growl, seemingly unwilling, but seeing that Lu Chen's expression was especially resolute, it hesitated for a moment, then finally followed Lu Chen's lead and slowly retreated. Even its front paws slowly left the youth's shoulder.
The surrounding Black Fire Tribe members all widened their eyes, their expressions nervous. The youth didn't even dare to breathe loudly, afraid that he would suddenly startle this huge beast, and in the blink of an eye, it would be a bloody disaster.
Seeing the huge black wolf slowly retreat a few feet under Lu Chen's advice, Huo Yan, who had been waiting on the side for a long time, suddenly rushed forward and pulled the youth up from the ground. Then, with a clean and neat roll, in the blink of an eye, they were already several feet away from the huge black wolf.
The surrounding Black Fire Tribe members immediately let out a cry of relief. Then, seven or eight warriors immediately held their swords and stood between the two sides, fiercely looking at Lu Chen and Atsu.
Lu Chen frowned, but didn't say anything. On the other side, Huo Yan pulled the youth up, and the chief Huo Hu also came over. The two looked at the boy with concern, and asked in unison, "Huo Ying, are you alright?"
The barbarian youth called Huo Ying suddenly jumped up from the ground. The original fear on his face disappeared, and was replaced with shame and anger. He pointed at Atsu and shouted, "Dad, kill it, kill it!"
Lu Chen's expression suddenly darkened, and Huo Yan frowned. Before he could say anything, Huo Ying had already run to Huo Hu's side, grabbed his hand, and shouted, "Grandpa, this black wolf wants to kill me, it wants to kill me. I definitely won't let it go, kill it!"
"Ever since it entered the Black Fire tribe, it didn't provoke anyone but you?" The one who spoke was Lu Chen. His eyes were cold as he asked.
Huo Yan frowned. He turned around to look at his son and asked, "What happened when we entered the house?"
The Fire Hawk froze for a moment, then shook its head with a resolute expression, shouting, "I just saw that this black wolf looks pretty good, and I somewhat like it. I wanted to take it as a mount, but I didn't do anything else. Who knew that this beast would be so ferocious and almost killed me … "
"If it wanted to kill you, you would be a dead man by now," Lu Chen said coldly.
The Fire Hawk was speechless for a moment, and then he flew into a rage. He pointed at Lu Chen and roared, "You lowly human, how dare you speak to me like this? Kill him, kill him! " As he spoke, he shouted at the barbarian warriors around him, as if he was used to ordering others around.
The strong barbarian warriors standing at the side looked at each other. Most of them didn't move, but secretly glanced at Huo Yan and Huo Hu.
Only one or two tall and simple-minded men let out a roar, drew their blades, and ran out.
"Stop!" A shout came from Huo Yan, stopping the two. Then, he looked to the side with a dark face, at the other people of the Black Fire tribe, and said loudly, "Did you all see what happened just now? Was it just like what the Fire Hawk said?"
The barbarians of the Black Fire tribe that he looked at, whether they were the warriors, the old, the weak, the women, or the children, none of them responded. Some of them even looked a little embarrassed.
Huo Yan's face darkened even more. He pointed at a tall barbarian warrior with especially thick arms, and shouted, "Tie Xiong, you speak."
The warrior called Tie Xiong rolled his eyes, looked at the Fire Hawk, then looked at Huo Yan, and said in a muffled voice, "It was Little Hawk who liked this black wolf and wanted to tame it. But the black wolf was too wild and refused. Little Hawk used the method we usually use to deal with wild wolves. He used a knife to stab it, but he was careless and was knocked down by the wolf … "
Huo Yan was furious. He turned to the Fire Hawk and scolded, "This black wolf has an owner, why did you touch it?"
The Fire Hawk was a little scared after being scolded by Huo Yan. He shrank back a little, but an old hand reached out and hugged him, patting his shoulder comfortingly. It was his grandfather, Huo Hu.
Huo Yan leaned on his grandfather, and his courage grew a lot. He straightened his neck and shouted, "That's just a lowly human. Sooner or later, we will kill him! Also, such a good black wolf is rare in the entire Wasteland. Of course, we will take it into our tribe. If we can tame it in the future, it will be a great help to us! "
"Nonsense!" Huo Yan was so angry that smoke was coming out of his seven orifices. He took two steps forward and was about to slap him.
But at this time, Huo Hu frowned and suddenly stretched out his hand to stop him. He then said indifferently, "Little Hawk is doing this for the good of the tribe. Isn't it just a demonic beast? It's no big deal."
Huo Yan was startled and said in shock, "Father, this is Lu Chen's black wolf. And what Little Hawk is doing is wrong, how can he …"
"Enough!" Huo Hu waved his hand and interrupted his son's words. His gaze turned to Lu Chen, who was standing side by side with the huge black wolf. A trace of haze flashed in the depths of his eyes. After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "You can leave."
"Father!"
"Grandfather!"
"Patriarch …"
Several voices cried out at the same time, all of them filled with surprise. The only difference was that Huo Yan and the others had murderous looks on their faces, while Huo Yan was anxious. He hurriedly said to Huo Hu, "Father, have you forgotten what I said to you just now? This is very likely the will of the Fire God. It is the Fire God who has once again given our Black Fire Tribe an opportunity, giving us a chance to rise and become strong again. "
"Just him?" This voice was a little immature and resentful. It was the teenager Huo Yan who interrupted. Obviously, he was still brooding over the humiliation he had just received.
Lu Chen glanced at the teenager and smiled coldly, not saying a word.
Huo Yan's anger rose and he shouted at Huo Yan, "Shut up!" Then, he turned his head to Huo Huo, lowered his voice, and earnestly said, "Father, don't you know how big the difference is between the tribes in the Wasteland and whether they have Priests or not? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, we must not miss it! "
The expression on Huo Hu's withered and old face fluctuated. In the end, he still shook his head and said with a cold expression, "Lu Chen, you are originally a human. According to reason, if a person like you comes to our tribe, killing you is already giving you satisfaction. But for the sake of the Fire God Staff, we will let you go. You can go. "
Lu Chen replied with an "oh" and said, "Then I thank you very much."
Huo Hu's face darkened. It seemed that he was very unhappy with Lu Chen's attitude of not thanking him and not kneeling down with his tail between his legs. However, he still endured it and coldly laughed dryly, saying, "As for the Fire God Staff, it is a divine weapon of our Black Fire Tribe. It will stay with us."
After saying this, he waved his hand and raised his voice, shouting, "Drive him out of the camp!"
Seeing his grandfather stand up for him and resolutely reject his father's unreliable suggestion, ordering him to chase this hateful human out of the tribe, Fire Eagle almost jumped up in joy.
Although he was a little regretful that he could not kill this hateful human in front of everyone, he could still vent his anger. Huo Ying waved his fist and followed Huo Hu's shout, "Drive him out, drive him out. If this person dares to resist, kill him for me …"
Huo Hu, the chief of the Black Fire Tribe, who was standing next to him, suddenly froze, and his voice came to an abrupt halt. Huo Hu, the chief of the Black Fire Tribe, who was standing next to him, suddenly turned ashen.
All the barbarian warriors of the Black Fire Tribe, those fierce and valiant men who seemed to be able to fight a demon beast on their own, actually did not stand up at this moment. Almost everyone stood in place, including the two people who wanted to rush out to vent Huo Ying's anger.
The eyes of every tribal warrior were secretly looking at Huo Yan.
… …
The atmosphere of the entire Black Fire Tribe instantly became cold and silent. Except for Huo Yan, almost all the barbarians' faces changed slightly, whether it was the warriors or the old, weak, women and children who were watching from the side.
This was a scene that had never happened in the Black Fire Tribe before. In the past, Huo Hu and Huo Yan were father and son. One was the chief, while the other was the chief of the warriors. Huo Yan was almost naturally recognized as the future chief.
Everything seemed to come naturally, and everything seemed so smooth and natural.
Until today, on this seemingly normal day, because of the sudden appearance of the human, the conflict between the father and son was suddenly placed in front of all the people of the Black Fire Tribe.
Then, the situation suddenly changed in an unexpected and strange way.
All the warriors, even without any orders, all looked at Huo Yan in unison, even if the chief, Huo Hu, had publicly issued an order.
Huo Yan seemed to feel nothing, coldly standing in the middle of the tribe's camp, not saying a word.
He did not move, and all the warriors looked at each other. Surprisingly, no one moved.
The atmosphere slowly became tense. Who knew how many people's heartbeats slowly sped up.
Fire Eagle tightly grabbed his grandfather Fire Tiger's palm. He felt his heart suddenly beat so fast that it was frightening, thumping non-stop. At the same time, he suddenly felt that his grandfather's hand was as cold as ice.
He secretly looked at his grandfather, only to see that this old man, who had been the chief of the Black Fire Tribe for many years, was slowly looking around with an ashen face.
His gaze swept across the faces of the Black Fire warriors. Every time he saw a Black Fire warrior, that person's gaze would be averted. Perhaps it was because of guilt, or perhaps it was because of nervousness, no one was willing to look him in the eye. But what made people despair was that even though he seemed to still have some prestige, not a single Black Fire warrior obeyed his orders.
The old tiger had lost its claws, lost its fangs. In the end, it no longer had the power of the past.
Huo Hu finally retracted his gaze and looked at the center of the crowd, at the man who was as majestic as a mountain.
Huo Yan raised his eyes and looked at his father.
The gazes of the father and son met in mid-air. It was as if there was a sudden explosion of thunder in the silence!
