This kind of birds domesticated by the Feather tribe, were usually sought after to search or spy some simple information by other tribes, also for early warning. It’s only that it required a lot of food to exchange for this bird; in case of shell money, one bird needed many chains of shells for exchange, and that was not even enough for a crown kite, which needed even more for buy.
It’s expensive, but very popular, especially in the central region.
Probably because the previous failure, the Martyr tribe were more concerned and paid high prices to get one crown kite for this time.
The crown kite was better at spying the situation. It was this crown kite which told Zhi the existence of other people hiding in the nearby mountains. Moreover, compared with common kites, the crown kite was far more intimidating. When there was a crown kite, many birds in the mountains would evade it; even if they didn’t evade, they would not readily clash with it.
Zhi showed off the crown kite standing on his arm to the people of the Jian tribe, and said slowly then: “We’re counting on it to spy the movements over there.”
People of the Jian tribe strongly agreed with this idea by Zhi in their hearts, thinking that this man was not yet too crazy and lost his brain. Anyway, he should have exchanged many things for this kind of bird from the Feather tribe. If it were their Jian tribe, they would definitely not pay much for only one bird.
Zhi said something to the crown kite and raised his arm.
“Go!”
The crown kite flew up with a loud cry, as if indicating other birds in the surroundings to make way for it.
Looking at the figure in the sky flying over to the Drumming tribe, Zhi couldn’t help laughing, “It won’t be long before my bird comes back with the movements inside the Drumming tribe.”
Unfortunately, with this word and the smile still remaining on his face, Zhi saw that the crown kite, which just entered the territory of the Drumming tribe, flew back in haste, flapping his wings hard, as if being chased by something. If it were a wild animal running on the ground, this could be described as “frightened out of its wits”.
Seeing the crown kite flying back hurriedly in the sky, people of the Jian tribe all looked at Zhi standing there with a frozen smile on his face. Is this what you meant by “It won’t be long”? Didn’t it come back too fast?
Whoever saw this scene would also be doubtful, thinking that this was not the way to spy.
Obviously, something was wrong.
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Zhi took out the wooden whistle and blew it, refraining himself from breaking the wooden whistle.
Hearing the whistle, the crown kite flying back just paused its flapping its wings fervently for a bit, but it didn’t mean to stop. Instead, it glided over their heads directly and slipped away in the blink of an eye. No matter how hard Zhi blew the whistle and called it, the kite would not come out.
“Ha-ha-ha!” The leader of the Jian tribe laughed out loudly. He was happy to see the Martyr tribe making a fool of themselves. So many things exchanged just for such a cowardly bird.
Crack!
Zhi pinched the wooden whistle into pieces out of anger.
“No need to spy any more. Just rush over later!” This time he brought two hundred people more than he brought last time when attacking the Drumming tribe, all of whom were at least intermediate totem warriors and elites, with two more senior totem warriors. Down the mountain, there were also some more hands, almost two thousand people with the men of the Jian tribe added. No doubt that it would be easier than the last time. They definitely could manage to loot the water moonstones. Actually, there was no real threat in the Drumming tribe which had more head count though.
Originally, the Martyr tribe intended to send one thousand more to Zhi, but he refused. With more people joining, he would get less. He knew that among the things he looted, he could keep some for himself as trophies.
They only came to loot things, not fighting for territory. If the two tribes started warfare, it would not be a matter of this number of people.
Why not wipe out the Drumming tribe directly? No, no, without the Drumming tribe, how could they get the water moonstones in the future? Zhi suppressed the thought in his mind.
As to the Jian tribe, they sent two people to spy the situation inside the Drumming tribe. This time, they didn’t go further and both returned, knowing that the helper of the Drumming tribe was a tribe called “Flaming Horns”, nothing more than that however.
“See? I told you.” Zhi had never heard of the Flaming Horns tribe, “Just a small unknown local tribe. No need to worry.”

But a few in the Jian tribe seemed to have heard of the Flaming Horns tribe, seemingly in the recent two years. They also didn’t take it seriously, as there was indeed no tribe like this in the central region.
People of the Jian tribe felt relieved at this time: it was good news as long as the central tribes didn’t interfere. In the case of a small regional tribe, they would feel relatively relaxed and confident of dealing with it.
Several days went by soon.
The day with the full moons also came finally.
People of the Flaming Horns tribe saw this great wonder of the Drumming tribe for the first time: the originally muddy water became so clear with shining stones at the bottom of the river!
However, people of the Flaming Horns tribe now didn’t have any idea of value. They just felt fresh at the sight of the water moonstones, this thing that was not edible at all.
Seeing the reactions of the Flaming Horns tribe, those of the Drumming tribe felt finally at ease, thinking that people of the Flaming Horns tribe were all kind-hearted!
Ao took some people in person and guarded one area in the territory of the Drumming tribe.
“This is our first battle here since we came here, also a battle with great significance. Our enemies are no longer those ferocious beasts in the mountains, but the invaders from other tribes, human beings just like us. But here is what I want to say: although the invaders are human beings, not ferocious beasts, I want you to act as if you’re hunting ferocious beasts and deal with these savage enemies seriously. Like Keke, tell these invaders the power of our Flaming Horns tribe and make them remember how we, the Flaming Horns tribe defeats them!”
Praised by the chief in public, Keke started walking on air.
“It’s nothing to brag about. I’ll hunt more than you do later.” Tuo and the others thought in their hearts.
Ao glanced at all those coming together here and said seriously: “The invaders are not our tribesmen. Kill anyone who invades!”
“Kill them!”
Everyone felt like back at the tribe, when they stood on top of the mountain for before a hunt.
At this moment, they really felt like singing the Hunting Song, but the chief forbade them.
Finishing his speech, Ao waved his hand. People gathering here immediately scattered here and there. They had made arrangements beforehand, everyone guarded their own area in the units of hunting groups.
Shao Xuan was in Keke’s group. Every member of this group was from the advance team and would handle those tougher enemies like the intermediate and senior totem warriors after a while.
Facing this kind of hunting for the first time, most of them were nervous, but more excited. After being depressed for so long, they finally could go hunting.
“Jiao~~!” In the sky, Chacha already gave a warning.
Soon, not far away, the sounds of the patrols on the outskirts of the Drumming tribe also came, which meant that they had also already set out.
Ao, standing still without moving, quietly listened to the nearby movements, as well as some faint sounds approaching quickly from a distance.
Whoosh~~
An arrow, from the other side of the forest, was shot at Ao standing there, aiming directly at his head!
This arrow was made elaborately and its tip was also made of good stone, which could effortlessly penetrate the trunk of a tree. The archer was also good at shooting, as this arrow passed through the forest without touching any branch or any leave, spotting those gaps hardly noticed throughout the forest.

Nevertheless, at half arm’s length from Ao, this menacing arrow was caught steadily and thrown back, almost going back the same route where the arrow came from. But with slight differences, the arrow hit inside the trunk of a tree with a sound of a “thud” at last.
Zhi, who shot the arrow, was looking at Ao from the other side of the forest, he felt a twitch in his eyelids, a strong sense of crisis suddenly struck. He himself was a senior totem warrior, while the person standing over there was also a senior one.
Looking at the arrow stuck on the trunk not far away, Zhi caught Ao’s eyes right when he moved his eyes over to the other side of the forest.
Ao took a long lance in his hand and looked at the person who shot the arrow closely, adjusting the internal totem power to the maximum. The totem patterns all appeared up on his body, flame-shaped patterns of senior totem warriors almost covered his whole body, extending to his fingers.
A strong sense of foreboding spreading throughout his body, Zhi jumped down from the tree at once, away from his previous position.
That kind of totem patterns definitely did not belong to any tribe he had ever seen!
Is this the Flaming Horns tribe? Zhi was pondering in his heart.
Rubbing the long handle with his thumb, just like hundreds of thousands of throws he did on his hunts, Ao threw the long lance in his hand.
Fast!
The long lance, like a lightening suddenly flashing down, quickly passed through the gaps in the forest. It clashed against some tree barks in the middle and then penetrated the body of an invader who rushed over.
His body was penetrated and fresh blood came out of the long lance, but it did not stop as the blood did. Instead, at a faster speed than the splashing blood, the long lance penetrated two trees again and headed towards Zhi, while Zhi was quickly changing his positions. In the place where he stood just now, another warrior of the Martyr tribe came by.
Penetrating one person and two trees, the long lance again cut through the body of the second invader and finally nailed itself deep into a tree, which was as wide as a water bucket!
In the places where the lance head touched, tree barks and chips on the trunk were blasted away, making a loud sound of bang.
Crack~ Crack~ Crack~
The tree fell down.
Seeing the situation over there, Zhi felt great horror in his heart.
The Flaming Horns tribe did not seem to be as weak as they thought.
Apart from the area where Ao guarded, fights and massacres were going on in other places here and there.
Actually, some of the Martyr tribe, as well as the people of the Jian tribe, were good at hiding, but this was really nothing to the people of the Flaming Horns tribe, who always dealt with ferocious beasts in the mountains which were better at hiding themselves. That was why Keke could detect the invader’s position after getting the early warning from Shao Xuan at that time.
Waving the stone sword in his hand, like a grey lightening falling down in the air, Shao Xuan went straight to the back of the bushes in the front. But before hitting the bushes, he shook his wrist slightly and changed the original route of the sword immediately, cutting through the bushes.
Seeing Shao Xuan coming over with a slash, the person intended to withstand the attack with the stone tool in his hand, but he didn’t expect that Shao Xuan would abruptly change the direction halfway, leaving him no time to react. His arm was penetrated by the falling stone sword.
The blade quickly penetrated the arm bone and stabbed his neck without pause!
Taking out his sword, Shao Xuan looked at the other people in different places.
Tuo killed an invader with one cut without any carelessness. As Ao said, treat every invader as if facing the ferocious beasts in the hunts.
The out-breaking totem power, every cut and every attack were all the same as they did when hunting in the mountains of the tribe. The blade was not just a blade, it cut with the force to strike the ferocious beasts.

Even the ferocious beasts with thick fur and strong body would bleed; let alone these humans without any protective armor.
This cut by Tuo was more powerful than the cut by Keke on that day, while the person getting this cut did not even have time to say anything at all. His body split into half and his warm blood splashed out, falling on the ground, on the trunk, in the bushes and some splashed on Tuo.
Without cease, Tuo quickly aimed at a second person. Before Shao Xuan could wave the sword, with an arc moving fast horizontally in the air, the second invader was slashed at waist directly.
The attack accomplished in one breath, the fast speed, the fierce and determined movement and the violent cut, all these were beyond the invader’s imagination!
Poof!
The blood spluttered out, like a red spring.
As to the invader who was split, his upper body remained in the air, while the part under the waist still moved forward for several steps before falling down.
When Fu Shi came over with two warriors of the Drumming tribe to see the situation of the Flaming Horns tribe, they immediately saw this scene. On the way, they had seen many similar cases, a chill swelled up in their hearts.
Breathing in a chilly air with the smell of blood and looking back to the ones with a raging sense but a calm mind in the battlefield, Fu Shi and the others felt their hair on the heads almost standing on end.
They……What kind of people are they?! Not even inferior to the fighting style of their Drumming tribe!
People of the Drumming tribe also tore human bodies apart by force, but they still couldn’t help swallowing when seeing the actions of the Flaming Horns tribe.
Realizing the arrival of Fu Shi with the other two and killing the third invader, Tuo turned around and looked in their direction, giving them a friendly smile as he thought. But in the battlefield, a cold light was brightly flashing in his eyes.
Taking a deep breath and another, Fu Shi and the others felt like cold water was poured over them in the winter, feeling like their whole body was almost frozen.
Is the Martyr tribe bloodthirsty?
That’s right.
Is the Jian tribe even more bloodthirsty?
Of course.
Then, how about the Flaming Horns tribe?
People of the Drumming tribe couldn’t help asking this in their hearts.
It was already not a question of being bloodthirsty or not, but far more like another level of carnage.
Seeing the dumbfounded faces of Fu Shi and the two, Shao Xuan was also in fact emotional. Before this, he thought that faced with human invaders for the first time, people of the Flaming Horns tribe would show them mercy or have bad psychological shadows and physical effects. But, now Shao Xuan had to admit that his thoughts were still too naive.
From Keke’s reactions at that time, Shao Xuan had known that in the face of the same species, they almost never had things like psychological shadows or physical effects. Here, they only knew their tribe, people on their own side and enemies. This kind of classification probably was deeply rooted in their minds, surely this was the same case with Shao Xuan
These people of the Flaming Horns tribe were just like humanoid weapons locked for a long time. In the past, they were enclosed in somewhere unknown for practices, but now these humanoid weapons were finally unleashed.
