"Donāt you know this is the Flame Dragon Tribeās territory?" Yan Jiao asked sternly.
His expression was extremely serious, because the other party was genuinely strong, second only to himself.
The other party had apparently just broken through to become a Mid Grade Totem Warrior, while he himself had broken through to become a Mid Grade Totem Warrior for quite a while.
Yan Jiao was currently advancing towards the Peak of the Mid Grade! Still, being able to reach this level, the other party could not be underestimated.
"I know. I only entered out of curiosity. Iāll leave immediately." Ban Ye immediately indicated his lack of malicious intent.
He knew if he did not say this, the other party would definitely immediately capture him.
In the primitive era, people without capabilities or separated from Tribes faced only two outcomes.
First, was waiting to die in the forest. Second, was becoming another Tribeās slave.
He understood the principle of curiosity killing the cat, so he needed to obediently leave now, despite being tremendously curious about this Tribe.
"Wait. Which Tribe are you from? Why did you follow us all the way here?" Su Bai called out to the other party.
He could sense the other party possessed capabilities, and hearing the otherās previous statements, he was curious about him.
After all, he needed some capable people in the Flame Dragon Tribe. Obviously, the other partyās strength met his approval.
"My previous Tribe has already been destroyed. Iām currently a Wanderer." Ban Ye shrugged awkwardly, continuing, "Iām currently searching for Wandering Tribes, so we can collectively resist the rainy season."
"Then would you like to join the Flame Dragon Tribe? After all, the rainy season is about to arrive." Su Bai asked.
Clearly, he knew the other party must be tremendously curious about the Flame Dragon Tribe, and he was also quite curious about the otherās capabilities. Being able to conceal his presence before numerous Totem Warriors without being detected, tracking them all the way hereā¦ this had already proven his capabilities.
"Me?" Ban Ye was obviously stunned, his eyes widening tremendously, momentarily uncertain how to proceed.
If he remembered correctly, this young, handsome man before him was the Flame Dragon Tribeās Shaman.
Ban Ye, from overhearing those earlier conversations and witnessing the other party execute his Shaman Techniqueā¦
He could confirm absolutely that the other party was extremely formidable.
One must not underestimate the other party simply because he appeared very young, at an age inappropriate for being a Shaman.
"Our Shaman is offering you membership into our Tribe. What are you still hesitating about?" Yan Hua immediately asked.
She saw the other party display an incredulous expression, appearing completely uncertain about how to proceed.
"Itās not thatā¦ I donāt want to become a slave, so can you let me go?" Ban Ye felt somewhat apprehensive.
Because if the other party genuinely demanded he remain as a slave, he had no alternatives. After all, this was an era of survival of the fittest. His own strength did not match these peopleās.
If actual combat erupted, he would be beaten down within seconds, so he could only negotiate properly.
Because the other party did not appear particularly aggressive, perhaps this was his final opportunity?
"Our Tribe doesnāt capture others to become slaves. Currently, our slaves are all individuals who attempted to attack our Tribe." Yan Jiao maintained a stern expression, continuing, "Besides that, weāre willing to accept Wanderers from various locations, provided youāre willing to work. Weāll accept you."
He clearly understood Su Baiās intentions now, currently managing the Flame Dragon Tribe according to these principles.
Accepting surrounding Small Tribes now followed this same rhetoric: basically, if they were willing to work hard, the Flame Dragon Tribe would accept them.
"Iā¦" Ban Yeās stance became somewhat unstable. He continued asking, "Youāre truly not asking me to become a slave? I dislike being constrained."
With his capabilities, joining any Tribe would be easy. He would be warmly welcomed regardless of where he went. However, he naturally loved freedom.
He also knew many Tribes had numerous rules. Joining a Tribe meant receiving these constraints.
His heart only recognized his initial Tribe, so he held all subsequent Tribes in contempt.
"Donāt worry. The Flame Dragon Tribe is completely free. As long as you work, youāll have food." Yan Jiao crossed his arms before his chest, continuing, "But if you donāt want to work, thatās also fine. We just wonāt allocate food to you."
"Is this really true?" Ban Ye was obviously somewhat tempted.
Naturally, what genuinely moved him was the scene he had witnessed while hiding in the bushes.
Su Baiās capabilities were too astonishing. That Shaman Technique was something he had never witnessed before. Moreover, this Shaman Technique demonstrated tremendously formidable strength, making such a vast area of trees completely change their direction and grow at a speed perceptible to the naked eye.
Additionally, he was tremendously curious about what he had witnessed in the forest previously.
Those beautiful young women, what method had they used to make that Six Eyed Red Bird, with its extreme speed, become obedient?
Plus, what was cultivated in this farmland, and what kind of Tribe was the Flame Dragon Tribe exactly?
"With your strength, you could join any Tribe, so weāre not forcing you. But, the rainy season is about to arrive." Su Bai stated calmly, turning to board the carriage back to the Tribe. Although he wanted many formidable Warriors, this still depended on the other partyās willingness. He currently needed to return to handle other matters.
"If thatās the case, Iām willing to go to the Flame Dragon Tribe, but I have one condition." Ban Ye mustered his courage.
However, after speaking, he regretted it, because every person here possessed tremendous strength.
Even though he was a Mid Grade Totem Warrior, capable of handling several Warriors with lower strength than himselfā¦
Yet that young Shaman alone could overwhelm him. He was still so recklessly arrogant, stating he had conditions.
"Youāre actually making demands of us?" Yan Jiao questioned whether his ears had heard incorrectly.
"Itās not an excessive condition. If I feel constrained, can I leave at any time?" Ban Ye gathered his courage to ask.
He still feared the Flame Dragon Tribe might prove extremely difficult, so he needed to state his thoughts upfront.
"Fine. Thatās entirely up to you. The Flame Dragon Tribe never forces anyone to stay." Su Bai shrugged and walked forward.
Yan Hua and the others immediately followed behind. The remaining matters would be left to the Chieftain to handle.
Su Bai spoke this way because he had tremendous confidence in the Flame Dragon Tribe. It was a peerless Tribe now. He refused to believe he could not retain such a talent.
"ā¦" Ban Ye fell into contemplation, then also followed behind.
