Percy believed he had presented a compelling case.
Confidently, he anticipated Xuelaiâs agreement. He knew that appealing to her kindness would likely result in success, especially considering the previous instances where she had relented.
As he had predicted, Adamsâ pride prevented him from making such a request. Percy, considering himself the most suitable messenger, stepped forward.
âAnd Adams will undoubtedly carry gratitude in his heart for your generosity,â Percy added as a final touch.
Gu Chaoyan glanced up at Percy.
He exuded confidence and pride, qualities that perplexed her.
It was challenging for her to comprehend such a person.
There was a saying: âA grain of rice nourishes kindness, and two grains of rice nourish hatred.â
While she had already done the Thunder Fire Clan a favor by agreeing to travel with them, she now felt that their demands were becoming insatiable. A few blankets had morphed into a request for dozens, and she sensed that it might not end there.
Generosity, she realized, could complicate matters.
She wasnât naive.
The Five Elements Clan could be kind, but being overly generous in this world, which had yet to be civilized, could lead to exploitation.
âAre you suggesting that the Five Elements Clan should provide half of their blankets to the Thunder Fire Clan?â Gu Chaoyan inquired.
In essence, that was precisely Percyâs proposition. While it might sound peculiar coming from the Tribe Chief, Percy nodded confidently, believing she would agree.
Gu Chaoyanâs smile carried a hint of mockery. âAnd in return, can the Thunder Fire Clan offer corresponding benefits?â
âThis⊠I canât promise that, but the Thunder Fire Clan will surely be grateful,â Percy insisted.
Gu Chaoyanâs smile widened.
Her smile seemed to convey that she found something immensely amusing.
âThe people of the Thunder Fire Clan must be excellent dreamers. I, as the leader of the Five Elements Clan, have no need for the gratitude of the Thunder Fire Clan. Sorcerers reside in the Five Elements Clan, and your attempts to please them are clear. I have already shown you some consideration, and now you want the resources of the Five Elements Clan? Go and ask the hundreds of members in the Five Elements Clan if they would agree. If they do, I wonât object,â Gu Chaoyan said with a smile.
The Second Chief of the Thunder Fire Clan hadnât anticipated such a response from Gu Chaoyan.
Their initial motivation was indeed the presence of the sorcerer.
HoweverâŠ
SheâŠ
WhatâŠ
Gu Chaoyan continued, âNo need for unnecessary discussions. Your name is Percy, right? Remember, if I, Xuelai, or any member of the Five Elements Clan finds your Thunder Fire Clan dissatisfactory, I can casually, indifferently chase you away.â
âUnderstand, and donât overstep your bounds!â Gu Chaoyanâs frustration was evident.
Percy was taken aback. He hadnât anticipated this outcome.
Assuming she had become more agreeable, Percy believed she would readily accept.
Unexpectedly, she warned against pushing their luck and even hinted at expulsion.
What on earthâŠ
Gu Chaoyan dismissed the notion of needing the gratitude of the Thunder Fire Clan.
Before Percy could respond, Gu Chaoyan summoned Gary, saying, âGary, come here, I need you to come with me.â
Gary quickly approached.
âTribe Chief, whatâs the matter?â he asked with concern, shooting a glare at Percy from the Thunder Fire Clan.
