I'm involved in poverty alleviation in a primitive tribe.

The bumblebee witch felt a lump in her throat. She thought of the dead bumblebee witches and her people, and of the warriors who had never returned after drawing away the enemy.

She lowered her head to hide her embarrassment, then raised it again, her eyes resolute, filled with hatred and ruthlessness: "I am not bitter. I will personally avenge the Flame Bird Tribe!"

Jiang Ning turned his head away as he saw the bumblebee witch lower her head, pretending not to see it. Hearing this, he didn't say anything, but just sighed inwardly. With the current strength of the bumblebee tribe, how easy would it be to take revenge?

Why exactly are they attacking your tribe? Just to seize your hunting grounds?

Bumblebee Witch said, "Not entirely. If the Flame Bird Tribe wants to become a lower tribe, it needs to increase its population. With more people, the hunting grounds also need to be expanded to support so many people. They only had more than 600 people before. They attacked other small tribes and captured a lot of slaves, but it was still not enough, so they set their sights on our tribe."

“Our tribe has a large population, and our strength is affected in winter, making us the best target for the Flame Bird Tribe. The Iron Eater Tribe has similar habits to us and is close by. If the Flame Bird Tribe doesn’t capture enough people, the Iron Eater Tribe will be their next target.”

Jiang Ning glanced at her: "You have such a good relationship with the Iron-Eating Beast Tribe? Instead of thinking about going back to the tribe to see if there are any survivors, you go to rescue them first?"

The bumblebee witch gritted her teeth, her voice dripping with blood: "That Flame Bird tribe will never let anyone go! The living, they'll take back to be slaves! The dead! The dead! They'll even feed them to the Flame Birds! I saw with my own eyes my people have a leg torn off and thrown to the Flame Birds to be eaten! They're a bunch of lunatics!"

Jiang Ning was horrified. She vaguely knew that food was hard to come by in this world, and that some tribes were cannibalistic. She never expected to encounter this so soon.

The bumblebee shaman continued, "There are too many tribes around. To survive here, you can't rely on yourself alone. I think you established the Jiang tribe alliance for a better chance of survival. The Iron-Eating Beast tribe and our bumblebee tribe have been on good terms for many years. We have gone through many disasters together, and they have helped us a lot. If we can save them, we should certainly do so."

After careful consideration, Jiang Ning finally asked, "Have you ever considered that people can change? What if they betrayed the Bumblebee Tribe? What if the Flamebird Tribe was brought here by them?"

Bumblebee Witch's breath hitched, but she quickly regained her composure and said, "If that's really the case, then I want to see it with my own eyes. I want to personally confirm whether the Iron-Eating Beast Tribe has betrayed us before I start planning anything else."

Jiang Ning's eyes showed approval. With such a shaman, this bumblebee tribe couldn't be too bad.

The Land of Tranquility is vast, and it took the Xuan Shui Rock Turtle four days to reach the border.

That makes sense, after all, it's the territory of the King Bone Beast.

From this perspective, the Jiang tribe's residence is located at the head of the Anning Land, with the hunting grounds extending to both sides. The salt lake is located below the Jiang tribe's residence, and to get close to the salt lake, one must venture deep into the Anning Land.

Jiang Ning thought to himself that he should have the Xuan Shui Rock Turtle take him around the Peaceful Land when he had time, and at least draw a map.

The hunting teams are currently weak and are expanding outwards little by little. It's unclear when they will be able to explore the entire territory.

The bumblebee witch held a domino as she sensed the location of the Iron-Eating Beast tribe. In their desperate escape, they ran around aimlessly, losing sight of some of the places they didn't recognize.

Three more days passed before they finally arrived at the territory of the Iron-Eating Beast Tribe. The group continued towards their settlement, and from a distance, they could see flocks of Flame Birds in the sky.

Bumblebee Witch was startled; it was too late. She looked to Jiang Ning for help, and Jiang Ning did not disappoint her, immediately ordering the team to advance at full speed.

The Flame Bird has red feathers and is about the same size as the Brown Feathered Eagle. Flocks of Flame Birds would swoop down from time to time, but the distance was too far to see the specific situation of the Iron-Eating Beast Tribe.

The closer you get, the more you can hear the sounds of fighting coming from the Iron-Eating Beast tribe, along with angry roars from time to time. Those must be their Iron-Eating Beasts.

A group of firebirds discovered Jiang's trail and immediately flew over.

The warriors of the Flamebird Tribe, standing atop the backs of Flamebirds, addressed the troop of pterosaurs: "Who are you? The Flamebird Tribe is on official business. Retreat at once! Otherwise, we'll kill you all!"

Lianxin remained silent. The Xuan Shui Rock Turtle below spat out a jet of water that pierced through the layers of tree canopy and struck the Flame Bird of the person who had spoken with pinpoint accuracy. The Flame Bird could not withstand the force of the blow and immediately fell from the sky with the warrior on its back. Keep in mind, this was at a great height!

The warrior beside him tried to catch the other warrior with his Flame Bird, but the dense branches slowed him down, and he could only watch helplessly as the other warrior and the Flame Bird crashed heavily to the ground, their fate unknown.

Jiang Ning had seen the clam tribe attack in this way before. Their clams could only attack ordinary beasts with water jets, but they couldn't handle anything with thicker skin.

This is the first time I've seen the Xuan Shui Yan Turtle use this skill. To have such power at such a distance is truly worthy of being called a Savage Bone Beast.

Seeing their tribesman fall, the warrior of the Flame Bird tribe quickly landed on the ground and ran to check on him.

Unfortunately, the Flame Bird's chest had been blasted open by the Xuan Shui Rock Turtle's water jet, and after falling from such a height, it was already dead. The warrior on its back was in the same situation, barely breathing and on the verge of death.

The warrior stood up angrily, turned to look at Jiang Ning and the others, then at the Xuan Shui Rock Turtle beneath their feet. His breath caught in his throat, and he said with difficulty, "Xuan Shui Rock Turtle! You...?"

When the Xuan Shui Rock Turtle entered the territory of the Iron-Eating Beast Tribe, it concealed the aura of the Savage Bone Beast in order not to alert the enemy. With the leaves in the forest providing cover, the people of the Flame Bird Tribe had only paid attention to the pterosaurs and brown-feathered eagles in the sky. They saw that the strongest member of this group was only a level three warrior, so even when they discovered that there were people below, they did not pay attention. Due to their negligence, they suffered a great loss.

Jiang Ning watched them coldly. Even though she always thought about improving the strength of the alliance, she never thought about attacking other tribes. Instead, she spent a lot of time and effort absorbing subordinate tribes and slowly growing stronger.

But the tribes here are different; as long as you're strong, you can do anything.

What should Jiang do if one day her tribe ends up in the territory of the bumblebee tribe?

Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, the firebird warrior had no choice but to carefully examine the suddenly appearing group. Suddenly, she saw the bumblebee swarm behind the group.

Because bumblebees are relatively small, they can fly freely in the forest, so the bumblebee warriors stayed behind the bumblebee witch and didn't fly high into the sky.
