With their plans in place, the Thunder Fire Clan members felt a renewed sense of confidence.
As darkness settled in, they enjoyed some wild fruits before drifting into slumber. The welfare of their clan always remained at the forefront of their minds, even though they refrained from indulging in the winter delicacies typically reserved for their clan.
The following morning, they awoke, gathered more wild fruits to eat, and set off for the Five Elements Clan with an air of determination.
The Five Elements Clan had fewer tasks to manage at this point. Clansmen were engaged in chores, patrolling, and hunting, and even the smelting furnace was in operation.
Gu Chaoyan pondered how to best prepare for the upcoming winter in the Five Elements Clan. Nowadays, the clansmen relied on animal fur and hide to shield themselves from the cold. These resources were dwindling, and there would likely be a shortage during the winter months.
She contemplated whether there might be a material akin to cotton in this world. It was possible, given the abundance of resources in this land. They only needed to search for it.
Just as her thoughts wandered in this direction, an unexpected visitor arrived with haste.
Gary approached Gu Chaoyan, his expression puzzled. “Tribe Chief, the Thunder Fire Clan has returned once again.”
“They mentioned they had another matter to discuss,” Gary explained.
Gu Chaoyan furrowed her brow. “We’ve already addressed matters with them previously. Why have they returned?”
Gary couldn’t comprehend their motives either.
Gu Chaoyan, however, maintained a composed demeanor. “Let them come. As long as it’s not a grave issue, we can engage in dialogue. The Thunder Fire Clan’s territory isn’t far from us, and it’s in our best interest to foster peaceful relations. We may be armed, but the Thunder Fire Clan boasts numerous members, and I’d prefer to avoid unnecessary harm to my people. If we can find a solution through conversation, that would be ideal.”
Gary nodded in agreement. The Tribe Chief’s perspective was sensible.
As long as the Thunder Fire Clan didn’t arrive with hostile intentions and the prospect of violence, it was a favorable outcome. They were acutely aware of the dire consequences that could stem from conflict between their two clans, especially with winter approaching.
“I’ll go and invite them,” Gary offered.
“Proceed.”
Soon, Gary returned with the group from the Thunder Fire Clan. Despite Adams having a plan, he appeared somewhat uneasy when broaching the subject.
“Is there something else you wish to discuss? Why have you come so early in the morning?” Gu Chaoyan inquired.
Adams hesitated before responding, “I’ve thought about it since yesterday, and I’ve decided to agree.”
“Agree to what?” Gu Chaoyan sought clarification, perplexed by his statement.
“You once mentioned that accepting the role of being the wife of the Thunder Fire Clan was an affront to you. As the Tribe Chief, your position will always remain as such. In light of that, I’m ready to agree. I’ll become a member of your Five Elements Clan, and you will continue to hold the position of Tribe Chief. While I may not officially call you my wife, I see myself as an equal, fulfilling the role of Tribe Chief alongside you. You will lead, and I will wholeheartedly support your leadership.”
Adams was fully aware that he wouldn’t be at a disadvantage in this arrangement, yet it felt a bit strange for him to put it into words. As a man and the leader of his own clan, willingly submitting in this manner, particularly to a woman who had once been quite flattering, left him with a sense of unease.
