Li Qing said, "No matter what, the Black Wind Tribe's foundation is stronger than our tribe and your tribe combined. This fire may cause great damage to the Black Wind Tribe, but the gap between us and the Black Wind Tribe still exists."
Yun and Bannei were inside, and they surrounded Hutun in a circle. Hutun was, after all, an outsider. He suddenly appeared at this time, saying that he wanted to join the Red Flower Tribe. But they all suspected that this guy had no good intentions.
Hu Tun's mouth twitched, and he gave a dry laugh, saying, "Really?"
Li Qing simply waited quietly for Hu Tun to continue.
A struggle flashed across Hutun's face; clearly, he was also hesitant.
Having finally escaped, the White Feather Tribe certainly couldn't return. As for the Black Wind Tribe, no matter what, their tribe had just fought with the Black Wind Tribe, and using Li Qing's excuse to surrender to the Black Wind Tribe was clearly unreliable.
Therefore, his only option was to seek refuge with the Red Flower Tribe. However, Hu Tun was also very clear about the current situation of the Red Flower Tribe.
Li Qing noticed Hu Tun's every little movement. With a sneer, Li Qing said, "I understand your difficulties. You don't need to explain anything to me. Since you want to join our tribe, you need to show me your sincerity."
Hu Tun's pupils suddenly contracted. "What do you mean?"
Li Qing said, "It's simple. We don't trust you. If you can betray the Baiyu tribe, you might betray our tribe in the next moment. Why should we accept you without saying a word?"
Hu Tun panicked, "How is this possible? I can't go back to my tribe, and I can't go to the Black Wind Tribe. My only option now is your tribe. How could I possibly..."
Li Qing smiled insincerely and said, "You've only joined our tribe because your life is threatened. Otherwise, why would you bow down to the Red Flower Tribe, which you've always looked down on?"
"No, I didn't! Don't talk nonsense!" Hu Tun exclaimed in alarm, frantically trying to prove his innocence.
"We absolutely cannot let him off lightly. Every single person in the White Feather Tribe is a despicable scoundrel who says one thing to your face and another behind your back!"
"Wheat is right. In short, we should get rid of this guy as soon as possible. Humph, he's really unpleasant!"
"You remember, right? Back in the tribe, it was him standing behind this guy, encouraging our chief to draw the Black Wind Tribe's attack so they could launch a sneak attack on the Black Wind Tribe from the other side. That bastard Yu made it sound so convincing back then, it really annoyed me."
Li Qing had not expressed any opinion, but Hu Tun listened to the discussions about him from the Red Flower tribes on both sides. His face turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly explained, "This was not my idea at all. It was Black Foot and our chief's idea. This has nothing to do with me. I was just standing behind."
Now he was the weaker party. Facing so many people, even if he wanted to resist, he was no match for so many people. He could only admit defeat and obediently explain. However, Hu Tun was still very unhappy. He muttered, "You really have the nerve to say that? You think our tribe is shameless? Then does your tribe have any shame? Our tribe only asked your tribe to draw fire for us, not to send you to your deaths. But you not only tricked us, but also tricked the Black Wind Tribe and set a fire, burning most of our tribe and the Black Wind Tribe to death. In terms of shamelessness and insidiousness, you are obviously more outrageous!"
However, Hu Tun only dared to think this in his heart; he dared not say it out loud. He smiled ingratiatingly, looking down at Li Qing's feet with a humble expression.
After an unknown amount of time, Li Qing finally said quietly, "It doesn't matter. I don't care what the Baiyu tribe does. In any case, judging from the current results, your tribe has already lost, and lost very thoroughly."
This guy!
Hu Tun clenched his fist secretly.
If the situation weren't so dire for him, he would have punched Li Qing in the head until it burst!
How dare a mere level one warrior be so arrogant! Who gave him the guts?
In terms of age and seniority, I am better than him in every way. It's one thing for him to show off just because he has more people, but what does this arrogant face mean?
"Hehe..." Hu Tun chuckled self-deprecatingly, and said insincerely, "Yes, we've completely lost."
Li Qing said, "So now you need to show your sincerity. I said before that I won't hold it against you for what you did before—you didn't succeed anyway. If you want to join our tribe, you must show your sincerity."
Sincerity!
This shows sincerity!
Hu Tun felt like he was being driven crazy. It was just a small Red Flower Tribe. Right now, the Red Flower Tribe was in dire need of warriors. With an experienced warrior like himself joining them, how dare they make so many demands on him? It was outrageous!
But Hu Tun dared not show any emotion, and could only complain bitterly in his heart.
Gradually, he felt an itch all over his body, as if a pair of eyes that could see through him and understand his inner thoughts were watching him, making Hu Tun feel like he was sitting on pins and needles, and very uncomfortable.
During this process, Li Qing crossed his arms and quietly watched Hu Tun. Surprisingly, the young soldiers beside him did not shout to kill Hu Tun or express their dissatisfaction with Li Qing. They simply watched Li Qing quietly, as if they had already regarded him as their leader.
Li Qing stared blankly at Hu Tun, though he was actually a little nervous. In his eyes, Hu Tun was an unteachable opportunist who would side with whoever was stronger. He was only now joining the Red Flower Tribe because he had no other choice. Li Qing was quite certain that if he had a better opportunity, Hu Tun would abandon the Red Flower Tribe again and join another tribe.
Li Qing did not kill Hu Tun or drive him away, but still hoped that he could create some value for him, just like the Black Foot and White Feather tribes.
His age and experience are undeniable; if I can scare him, he'll surely surprise me.
This moment was extremely agonizing for both of them. Hu Tun lowered his head and thought about it alone for a long time. Finally, he slowly raised his head.
"You're planning to attack the Black Wind Tribe, right?"
Li Qing initially wanted to say, "This is none of your business," but after thinking about it, he nodded and said, "Yes."
Hutun snorted, "I was wondering why. By the way, your chief didn't come?"
"That's not something you need to worry about."
Hutun's eyes darted around, and he said in a strange voice, "If I'm not mistaken, they should be in the Black Wind Tribe right now."
I don't like talkative people.
"Don't rush," Hutun waved his hand and said, "By the way, Wheat, do you know what the Moth Witch's abilities are?"
