Free Web NovelChapter 531: Chapter 396: So Awkward (Part 2)
"I’m going to wash up first. Yuan Lang, you can go inside."
But let’s not dwell on Wu Yue’s awkward predicament.
At this moment, in the Yan Yan Tribe, the witch watched the Beastmen fighting in the huge clearing before her, her expression indifferent.
The elimination rounds from a few days ago were over, and today, the competition between the Beastman Warriors had finally begun.
Watching the two Beastman Warriors facing off in the clearing ahead, the witch’s expression was placid, a faint smile playing on her lips.
The surrounding tribespeople still looked at her with the same awe, because her leg had been healed several days ago by the Lord Witch from the Super Tribe.
It had even been a blessing in disguise, as she had become a disciple of the Worm Witch.
"Lady Witch must be favored by the Beast God. Not only is her talent with witch power excellent, but now she’s even been noticed by the Super Tribe."
"I’m afraid it will be hard to see Lady Witch again. None of the tribespeople who went to the Super Tribe in the past have ever come back."
"Does that mean the position of our tribe’s witch will have to be chosen from the remaining Witch Disciples?"
"Yeah, I really thought Lady Witch would be the next witch."
The surrounding tribespeople’s whispers inevitably reached the witch’s ears, and the smile on her lips grew even more gentle and refined.
’This feeling of being adored and worshipped by everyone is just wonderful.’
’If the tribe’s witch hadn’t said that going to one of these Great Tribes would allow me to obtain better Cultivation Methods and extend my lifespan, I would never have given up my respected position in the Yan Yan Tribe to run off to a Super Tribe and become a minor witch with no status.’
"Lady Witch, I never would have thought you’d be chosen by the Super Tribe. I really thought you were going to be the next witch of the Yan Yan Tribe."
The speaker was a Pure Human male, also one of the Yan Yan Tribe’s Witch Disciples. He, too, had once been highly regarded by the witch.
The male’s eyes darkened instantly at the thought of how he, too, had once been revered by the tribespeople, just like the witch.
’This female before me changed everything. Because of her arrival, everything I once had was gone.’
’I can only hide in my own cave, like some rat that can’t bear the light of day.’
Because every time he stepped out of his cave, he was met with the pitying and knowing glances of the other tribespeople.
He walked right over and sat down beside the witch. "What a shame."
’Once the witch is gone, I’ll be the Witch Disciple with the most talent for cultivation in the Yan Yan Tribe. The position of this tribe’s witch will be mine.’
At this thought, much of the gloom in the male’s eyes dissipated, and a faint smile even appeared in his gaze as he looked at the witch.
The witch’s hands, resting on her knees, tightened. Then, as if a thought occurred to her, she turned to him with a beaming smile. "Although your talent for cultivation is inferior to mine, I’m the one who has been chosen by the Super Tribe now. I just hope you’ll cultivate well in the future, so you don’t disappoint the witch."
The male was speechless.
’He had come over to gloat, but for some reason, his chest ached now.’
The smile on the male’s face finally, slowly faded. "Well then, I hope Lady Witch learns even better Cultivation Methods in the Super Tribe."
The male looked at the witch, who still wore a gentle expression and a gentle smile, and sneered.
’She was all smiles on the surface, but rotten to the core. He had no idea if the tribespeople were blind to still like her so much.’
Watching the male return to his seat, a cold glint finally appeared in the depths of the witch’s eyes.
"Witch, have some fruit."
The Beastman Warrior who had been standing beside her the whole time suddenly offered two bright red fruits to the witch.
The Beastman had long since overheard their conversation. To him, only the witch mattered.
Having spent so much time with the witch, he could guess her general intentions from a single movement, or even the furrow of her brow.
"Lady Witch, you’ve been chosen by the Super Tribe. You must remember the witch’s words."
The Beastman Warrior’s words suddenly soothed the anger in the witch’s heart.
She let out a heavy breath. "You’re right."
The witch looked up at the Beastman Warrior who had always been by her side. "Are you willing to go to the Super Tribe with me?"
The Beastman Warrior’s body trembled. "W-Witch, what did you say!"
The female before him was looking up at him, her usually smiling eyes now filled with solemnity, as if she were awaiting his answer.
He felt his throat go dry. He pressed his lips together, and when he spoke, his voice was hoarser than ever before. "I... Of course I want to go, but my strength isn’t enough to be chosen by the Super Tribe."
