Yezi was a barbarian girl. Because she was young, her skin looked better than most of the barbarians in the Wilderness. However, there were still obvious characteristics of the barbarians on her body. For example, there were sharp fangs protruding from the corners of her mouth, tattoos on her body, and she was actually quite tall.
When Lu Chen called her up, he found that this barbarian girl was almost as tall as him. In fact, from the aesthetic point of view of the human race, most people would not be able to accept barbarian women. However, it was probably because of her young age. In general, this woman named Yezi seemed to be more pleasing to the eye than the ferocious barbarians outside.
Compared to those barbarians who liked to have their faces covered with twisted patterns and talisman tattoos, Ye's exposed skin only had two tattoos on her upper left arm and right thigh. This was also the reason why she looked more 'delicate'.
However, having been in the Black Fire tribe for so long, Lu Chen roughly knew some of the barbarian's customs.
It was not that Yezi did not want to have those colorful tattoos on her face, but because those tattoos on the face often meant boasting, meritorious deeds, achievements, or other qualifications. It was not something that could be casually tattooed on. It was probably because this barbarian girl was too young and not qualified enough.
While Lu Chen was sizing up the barbarian girl, Yezi was also secretly looking at him. The women of the tribe were still more gentle than the aggressive male warriors. In her eyes, there was a bit of awe and curiosity, but it seemed to be mixed with a bit of resentment.
Lu Chen quickly noticed this. He did not have any intention of guessing, but directly asked Yezi about her origin and identity.
Yezi lowered her head and said. Just as Lu Chen had guessed, Yezi was a member of the Divine Wood tribe who had surrendered after their tribe was exterminated.
Would he let a woman who had a grudge against him, and who might even have relatives who died in the war started by Lu Chen by his side? Huo Yan's burly and brave figure flashed in front of Lu Chen's eyes. He thought to himself, "What is this guy, whose mind is far more detailed and profound than the other barbarians, thinking?
Did he have some ulterior motive, or was it simply because it was convenient?
Currently, the atmosphere within the Black Fire Tribe was rather delicate. Patriarch Huohu was clearly dissatisfied with Huoyan and Lu Chen's actions. Despite Huohu's advanced age, many of the tribe's warriors stood on the side of Huoyan and Lu Chen. However, he had been the chief of the tribe for many years after all. He was a person of virtue and prestige, and no one could ignore him. Not to mention that Huo Hu was Huo Yan's father after all. They were related by blood, so ordinary people could not do anything to him.
Even in the Barbarian Tribes, which were known for their ferocity and savagery, it was not popular for the sons to go against their elders, or for the sons to fall out with their fathers and even fight with them.
Under such circumstances, it might not be convenient for Huo Yan to directly call for a tribesman from the Black Fire Tribe to serve Lu Chen. Instead, he would not need to be courteous with the Divine Tree captives, and would be able to account to the Black Fire Tribe.
As for what Lu Chen had said before about giving these people equal treatment … let's just wait and see. Probably not many people would take it seriously.
Lu Chen pondered in silence, while Ye just stood there. She did not dare to move until she received the orders of this mysterious and terrifying priest.
Just like that, after an unknown period of time, Lu Chen suddenly withdrew his gaze and looked at her again.
"Come here," he said calmly, but his tone seemed to have an unquestionable aura.
Ye lowered her head and responded, slowly walking in front of him.
Like most of the Barbarians, Ye's clothes were mainly animal skins, supplemented by small stones of various shapes and colors, animal teeth, and small bones as ornaments. The harsh sandstorm on the Wilderness did not seem to have damaged the beauty and youth of this Barbarian girl. The exposed skin on her arms and thighs was still fair.
But not far in front of her, the man stood in front of her like a mass of darkness.
One black and one white, the shadow and the light, juxtaposed in such a somewhat dazzling way in the stone house. But at least at this moment, Ye's whiteness looked particularly small and fragile.
In front of the threatening dark aura, or because of the awe she had for the shaman and the priest since she was a child, even if she still held a trace of resentment in her heart, Ye could not help but kneel down.
She was just an ordinary Barbarian girl. She did not have the powerful force of the Barbarian warriors. She was weak and ordinary. Not to mention that even the Barbarian warriors, who were known for their ferocity and toughness, were in awe of this shadow-like man.
After a moment, Ye suddenly felt a chill on the top of her head.
It was a hand that was gently placed on the top of her head.
Why was the palm so cold, almost not like the flesh and blood of a human? At that moment, Ye even trembled for no reason. She closed her eyes and was very afraid. She even felt that it was not a hand that was pressing on her head, but a piece of gloomy white bone.
"Do you hate me in your heart?" That calm, seemingly emotionless voice sounded in Ye's ears.
Ye was stunned for a moment, and then immediately shook her head desperately. She was afraid that if she moved a little slower, this terrible and evil priest might make her suffer the most terrible punishment in the legends.
Lu Chen looked at the terrified Barbarian girl and wanted to say something, but after a moment, he secretly sighed in his heart. He thought to himself, "What's going on? Didn't he say that he was indifferent to these Barbarians and had no interest in them? Why did he suddenly feel that his heart had softened?"
He withdrew his hand, turned around, and walked back to his original place and sat down. After a moment, she heard him say, "This time, you probably know the people of the Divine Wood Clan who came with you, right?"
Ye breathed a sigh of relief after his hand left her head, but after hearing this, she became a little nervous. At the same time, she had a faint feeling that the fate of her clan was about to be decided.
She hesitated for a moment and then said carefully, "I know them all, Lord Priest … What do you want to do?"
Lu Chen raised his head slightly and looked at her. Ye was shocked and quickly prostrated on the ground, saying, "Lord Priest, don't be … angry! I, I just want to help you. Now, now, I have been sent to serve you. No matter what, you can ask me to do it, and I will do my best to do it. "
"Roar …"
Lu Chen did not make any response, but at this moment, a low roar suddenly came from behind Ye. A huge shadow suddenly appeared and covered her, with a strong murderous aura.
Leaves screamed and turned her head. What she saw was a bloody mouth, and then a huge ferocious wolf head. The sharp fangs were about to pierce her face, and a pair of big eyes like copper bells were staring at her fiercely. It seemed that the next moment, it would pounce on her and swallow her in one bite.
Ye's body went limp, and she almost fainted. Her body could not help but curl back desperately. After a while, she reacted. Wasn't this the huge black wolf that had been following the mysterious priest?
Before, it was already very frightening, but now that it was so close to the giant wolf, its ferocious and terrifying aura was even more frightening. Ye had no doubt that this demon wolf must have killed countless people and eaten countless flesh and blood. Could it be that the purpose of me being placed next to this priest was to become the wolf's food …?
There was no trace of blood on the barbarian girl's face, and she looked like she was about to be scared to death. At this moment, Lu Chen frowned and said, "Enough, Atsu, you're too free, aren't you?"
The huge black wolf that was baring its fangs and looking like the most terrifying monster in the world suddenly shrank back. Its original ferocious appearance disappeared in the blink of an eye, and then it returned to its lazy appearance. It grinned and called out, then slowly walked to Lu Chen's side and lay down. It opened its mouth and yawned, but it rested its head on Lu Chen's leg, and then narrowed its eyes again.
Ye, who felt that she had escaped from death, slowly recovered after a long while. She gasped and once again knelt on the ground in front of Lu Chen with some difficulty.
Lu Chen looked at her helplessly. After a moment of silence, he said, "Are you all right …"
Ye whispered in a trembling voice, "I … I'm fine."
Lu Chen sighed and said, "If you're tired, you can go back and have a rest for a while."
Ye shook her head and said, "The leader who led me here just now said that I will be your servant from now on. From today on, I will eat, drink, and live here. I can't go anywhere."
"…" Lu Chen was speechless for a moment. After a moment, he said, "Then do as you please."
Ye bowed her head and agreed. After a while, she looked around again, and then quietly got up and walked to the side to start cleaning up the house.
Lu Chen didn't care about her. Anyway, there was nothing important in this house. After waiting for a while, he suddenly seemed to think of something, and then asked Ye casually, "By the way, among your people this time, how many warriors or adult men are there who can fight?"
Ye's body trembled, and her face suddenly turned pale.
Lu Chen waited for a while, but found that he didn't get the answer he wanted. He frowned and looked at her, "What's wrong with you?"
Ye suddenly ran over, knelt in front of Lu Chen, and then kowtowed desperately. Her eyes were full of tears, and she cried, "Your Excellency, Your Excellency, I beg you to let my people go! As long as you don't let them die, I'm willing to do whatever you want Ye to do! "
With that, she seemed to have made a difficult decision. She suddenly put her hand on her animal skin clothes, and was about to tear them off.
