We made you the chief, and now you've become the world's chief?

Chapter 24 Exchange
"Go and get the wooden spears."

Xia Minghao spoke to the women around him, while simultaneously raising his spear and javelin thrower with his left hand.

"Stop, or the wooden spears will pierce your bodies!"

Caution is still necessary, as the main fighting force is in the forest. However, thanks to Xia Minghao's overtime work, these women now have spear-throwing devices.

With daily training after meals, even the worst student can throw forty or fifty steps.

But I'm afraid that if these men get close and suddenly have malicious intentions, we'll be caught off guard.

Having said that, Xia Minghao mustered all his strength and threw a long spear.

However, his aim was poor. He only intended to make a small intimidation, but the spear ended up sticking out right in front of the leader, Li Ba's foot.

If Bald Liba had taken a few more steps forward, or if Xia Minghao had struck with a little more force, the wooden spear might have pierced right through his skull.

"I won't leave! I won't leave!"

Everyone else was alright, they just gasped in surprise, but Liba was so frightened that he almost wet his animal skin skirt.

Looking at Xia Minghao and the women who had all picked up spears, Liba swallowed hard.

I had previously thought that the women in this terrifying tribe were powerful, but I almost overlooked the strength of the men.

Women are so powerful after eating snakehead fish, how strong must men be after eating it?

Just now, he was able to throw the wooden spear so far and so accurately.

Even though they hadn't seen the glowing eyes yet, Liba was still terrified and immediately put down his weapon, afraid that Xia Minghao would throw spears at him again.

"Women, these are for you; fish and meat, give them to us!"

"it is good!"

At this point, there's no need to say much, nor is there any intention to engage in idle chatter.

Xia Minghao looked directly at Xima, whose face no longer showed the fear she had shown earlier. With the fish hanging from her arm, she walked over.

The five women who had been chosen were given a push and walked towards Xia Minghao and his group.

As soon as they appeared, Xia Minghao couldn't help but observe the group of women.

Some of them looked to be around the same age as Hima, in their early thirties.

Some are like Shia, but much smaller in stature.

It can be said that these were not well-regarded in primitive societies, which is to be expected.

However, for Xia Minghao, since they didn't need to gather and hunt like other primitive people, the impact wasn't significant.

The men respectfully accepted the black fish that Hima threw to them, but no one knows who was the first to lose control and run away.

The others also started running.

At first, Chief Liba didn't react, but when he saw that no one was behind him, he quickly ran away.

When they could no longer see the mysterious and terrifying Xi tribe in their hearts, they stopped and panted heavily.

Some people even showed a hint of relief on their faces, as if they had survived a disaster.

Only the leader, Liba, had a fierce glint in his eyes, like a cave lion whose cave had been robbed, as he looked in the direction from which the runner was coming.

Just now, the scene that terrified him reappeared in his mind, but this time it was no longer fear, but his anger.

"They, that man, and that group of women, were like wild boars that had crashed into a tree."

Upon hearing the chief's words, Lipa straightened up and looked at Henyu, instantly understanding what was happening.

“We eat blackfish to get stronger, then we rob them, killing men and children!”

Upon hearing this, the men all looked up at the dried black fish, and Liba smiled.

He ripped a dried black fish from a vine and put it directly into his mouth.

The remaining blackfish were given to the others.

Everyone began to share the food, and like their leader Liba, they all looked in the direction of the Xi tribe.

……

……

……

"Sigh, I wonder if they'll drop their little pearls after eating the blackfish and finding it only fills their stomachs..."

Xia Minghao thought to himself, without giving it much thought. He wasn't worried about them coming to find him again; in fact, he was afraid they wouldn't come.

If they don't come, who will buy the pottery I make?

Turning around, Xia Minghao looked at the five new women.

At this moment, five women stood not far away, not daring to even raise their heads.

Meanwhile, the women and children of the Xi tribe were observing curiously from the sidelines, but did not take the initiative to approach them.

"Ahem, welcome! Welcome means we're happy to have you with us."

Another new Chinese word pronunciation entered the ears of this group of primitive people.

The women of the Xi tribe naturally began to repeat after them. They had become accustomed to their chief creating new words and had learned to memorize them by repeating after him.

"Still... hard..."

Of the five women, only one voice echoed the reading.

Xia Minghao looked at the woman who made the voice. She was a fair-skinned, thin girl with a small frame. She didn't seem like a primitive person, and there were no signs of her having participated in labor.

"Your name, what?"

Upon closer inspection, this woman was clearly different from the others.

Everyone else looked lost and bewildered, but she was carefully observing everything, her eyes full of curiosity.

Upon hearing the question, the girl looked over and realized that she had accidentally made a sound, attracting the attention of this man who was even taller than the former leader of the Li tribe.

“Lifu arui”.

Li Fu A Rui...

This name is not only a bit strange, but it also sounds kind of familiar.

It's somewhat like the meaning of "leaf" in a primitive language...

"leaf?"

Xia Minghao pointed to a tree not far away and confirmed it.

The girl looked in the direction her finger was pointing, then shook her head, then nodded.

Forget about the name, Xia Minghao simply called the new girl Ye Zi.

The other four women also gave their names, but they all looked listless and weak.

"Hima, have someone take them to learn about the tribe. We'll be one tribe from now on."

"Then tonight we won't eat the stored food, we'll eat the fresh food and have a welcome party."

Fresh...

Because we have too much food stored up, especially dried meat, we now deal with the dried meat that has become rancid and oily before eating fresh food for dinner.

Everyone cheered upon hearing Xia Minghao's words.

They seemed to have learned what a "welcome party" was.

Only a few of the new women, besides Ye Zi, remained immersed in their own sorrow.

"Hima, come find me after you've finished making your arrangements. I have something to ask you."

In the silence of everyone's cheers, Xia Minghao added another sentence to Hima.

Hima, who had initially become more cheerful along with the women, now looked conflicted again.

Without lingering outside the cave, Xia Minghao went back inside and waited for Hima.

Before long, Hima returned to the cave, seemingly having figured something out, and her eyes no longer darted around as before.

"Hima, can you describe to me what's beside that huge river?"

He asked again tentatively, while Xia Minghao observed Xima's expression.

Finally, this time Hima was no longer as afraid as before, and because of trust, she chose to tell this man everything from her long-buried memories.

As Xia Minghao listened to Hima's story, his expression was initially uncertain.

After everything was explained and the information he wanted to know was obtained, his brow instantly relaxed.
