Chapter 171: Inconsistent Attitude
"Outside orcs, you come to my Golden Lion Tribe, do you want to join us?"

Clan leader Jin Cang's gaze swept around the room, finally landing on Bai Wanwan and Shihua.

His eyes were not gentle, but carried the scrutiny and speculation of a superior.

Xin Feng stepped forward, his tone gentle but not humble. "Chief Jin, we don't plan to stay here permanently for now. We simply want to spend the next snow season in the Golden Lion Tribe. We will deliver prey on time in exchange for your temporary stay."

Jin Cang listened to the male's words but did not respond immediately.

Of the two females, one looked ordinary, timid and cowering, while the other was exceptionally beautiful, with skin even whiter than the prettiest female in their tribe. She was delicate and beautiful, and very bold. When she looked at him, her eyes were fearless, curious and frank.

"My Golden Lion Tribe has no shortage of prey." Jin Cang smiled faintly, his tone carrying a hint of meaning. "If you want to stay, this little bit of leverage may not be enough."

At this moment, the animal skin covering the basket was suddenly lifted up, and several small snakes poked their heads out from the gap, spitting out their tongues and making "hissing" sounds.

However, before they could get out, their father ruthlessly covered them with animal skins.

Jin Cang's gaze narrowed slightly, a hint of strangeness flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.

He calmly looked away, as if nothing had happened.

Xinfeng continued, “If the game isn’t enough, we have flax, spices, and perfumed ointments…”

This was what they had agreed upon before. If the prey was not enough to impress the patriarch, they would offer more precious supplies in exchange.

Bai Wanwan is now reluctant to use points to exchange for the things in the system space. Most of the supplies that Xin Feng reported were obtained from Roger before.

Jin Cang listened quietly, with a faint smile on his face.

After Xin Feng finished speaking, he nodded and said calmly, "Okay, then five prey per month. If you add the supplies you mentioned, I can give you the largest and safest stone house."

Bai Wanwan's beastly husbands exchanged glances with each other, and a sense of vigilance arose in their hearts.

The patriarch looked reluctant just now, how come he suddenly agreed so readily?

Seeing the orcs were silent, Jin Cang's eyes lit up with a smile and asked, "Why, you don't want to?"

Yan Lie, who was standing next to Bai Wanwan, asked directly, "Chief Jin, you seemed reluctant to accept us just now. Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

Jin Cang's fingers rubbed the bone ornament on his wrist, and he spoke in a natural tone, "Didn't you provide other supplies? These things are much more practical than prey. If you have enough supplies, you can stay as long as you want."

His words sounded reasonable, but males like Zhu Xiu always felt that Jin Cang's attitude changed too quickly, as if he was hiding something.

"Then it's settled." Jin Cang waved his hand and said to the young male beside him, "Jin Yue, take them to the largest stone house in the east."

Jin Yue was obviously stunned for a moment, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly restrained his emotions and nodded respectfully: "Yes, Patriarch."

His attitude immediately became respectful, but Bai Wanwan and her group, who were paying attention to Jin Cang, did not notice these subtle changes.

After Jin Yue, Bai Wanwan and the others left, the older orc standing next to Jin Cang couldn't help but whisper, "Chief, isn't that stone house reserved for the young chief and his future female? Why are these outsiders being allowed to live in it?"

Not only was Jin Yue puzzled, but even the older orc was bewildered. Jin Cang's gaze remained fixed on the direction Bai Wanwan and her group had left, a meaningful smile playing on his lips. "Did you see the snake cubs in that basket just now?"

The older orc, Jin Wu, nodded: "I see."

"There are two mutant snake cubs in there." There was a hint of excitement in Jin Cang's tone that was hard to conceal.

"Mutated snake baby?" Jin Wu widened his eyes, obviously a little bit unbelievable.

Jin Cang smiled and nodded, "That's right. Mutated snake beasts are rare to begin with, let alone two surviving in one nest."

Jin Wu was still a little confused: "Chief, what do you mean...?"

Jin Cang's eyes were deep as he spoke slowly, "Not long ago, one of our males brought back news that a holy female had appeared in a small or medium-sized tribe not far from the Golden Lion Tribe."

"Saintess?!"

Jin Wu's cloudy eyes lit up instantly, but then he shook his head, his tone full of doubt, "Chief, could we be mistaken? How could the Holy Female appear in a small or medium-sized tribe?"

Since the death of the last Holy Female, there has not been a Holy Female in the Golden Lion Tribe for thirty years.

The Holy Female has almost become a legendary existence, and it is rare to see one even in super tribes.

Jin Cang didn't respond to him for the time being, frowning and thinking about something.

"You mean, if she is a holy female, you want to keep her and marry the young patriarch?" Jin Wu asked tentatively.

"Yeah." Jin Cang nodded, a hint of helplessness in his tone. "Other males like Jin Yi's age would have already found a partner. But he's still single. If this gets out, I don't know how many people will laugh at our Golden Lion Tribe. If he doesn't find a partner soon, I'm afraid he won't be able to take on the position of tribe leader in the future."

After he and his partner got married, they only had two siblings, Jin Yi and Jin Zhi.

The position of patriarch will be passed to Jin Yi sooner or later, but if he does not find a partner soon, the future of the tribe will be affected.

Jin Wu frowned, still a little worried: "What if we're wrong? What if that female is just an ordinary female?"

"An ordinary female?" Jin Cang chuckled, his tone firm. "Did you see the males around her? If my guess is correct, the males around her are at least above the Yellow Rank. Although I'm not sure if she is a Saint Female, she is definitely not an ordinary female."

The aura of high-level males is different. Jin Cang has seen countless beasts, so he believes that he will not make a mistake.

Even if she is not a holy female, she can give birth to two mutant snake beasts, and such a female is worthy enough to match Jin Yi.

"Jin Wu, have the males keep a closer eye on it and observe it carefully."

Jin Wu nodded immediately and said, "Don't worry, Chief. I will make the arrangements right away."

After Jin Wu slowly walked out of the stone house with a wooden stick, Jin Cang walked to the stone bench covered with tiger skin.

If this female is really a holy female, he will keep her no matter what means he uses and let her become Jin Yi's female!
Bai Wanwan was not completely unaware. After leaving the stone house, she looked back twice and couldn't help but say to Zhu Xiu beside her, "Zhu Xiu, do you think the clan leader is up to something bad?"
