Chapter 241 Cutting Through the Gordian Knife



After dealing with the matter here, Mu Youran looked terrible and called Luo Bai and Long Yin into the cave to talk alone.

Xuan Feng knew what she was going to say; Luo Bai's performance just now was extremely poor.

He can hardly be considered a qualified clan leader, and as for Long Yin, he was probably just an afterthought.

It was getting late, so he was going to hunt some delicious bamboo rats for You Ran. The bamboo rats were at their fattest and most tender this season, having eaten a lot of bamboo shoots.

Luo Bai knew why You Ran had come to him, and he also knew that he hadn't done well.

Upon entering the cave, Mu Youran poured a glass of cool water for the two of them: "Sit down."

This serious demeanor was something they had only ever seen You Ran display in front of others; it was the first time it had ever been seen on them.

Her tone was calm, but her face was serious, which felt even more frightening than when she was angry.

Luo Bai hugged her water glass, feeling very guilty: "You Ran, I know I was wrong."

“It’s my fault. I haven’t been able to take care of them since Father passed away, and I’ve caused you so much trouble.”

In fact, Mu Youran already knew about this problem before. With Luo Bai's abilities, he probably wouldn't be able to suppress those people in a short period of time.

Moreover, last year a Fengyu tribe joined, which greatly increased the difficulty of management.

What I didn't expect was that the old patriarch would suddenly pass away; otherwise, things wouldn't have fallen into such chaos.

He exhaled a breath of stale air and took a small sip of water: "Don't overthink it."

"You just lack experience; you'll get better in the future."

"Just remember, you are the chieftain, and you have absolute leadership authority in the Sunset Tribe!"

"As for the other things that are in the way, just get rid of them."

Luo Bai nodded. He used to think about winning people over with virtue, but now he realized that virtue was worthless!

In critical moments, it always becomes a cage that binds oneself!

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so thoroughly controlled by that group of people.

"I see."

Mu Youran pushed her empty water glass in front of him, indicating that he should pour her a glass.

Luo Bai picked up the earthenware pot, about to pour water, when he heard a leisurely, faint sound.

"In that case, let's find a way to get rid of Changsheng!"

His hand trembled, and water spilled all over You Ran's hand.

Seeing You Ran withdraw her hand and pick up the burlap next to her, she realized what had happened.

He knew he was inadequate and that Chang Sheng was despicable, but Luo Bai felt he couldn't bring himself to kill him.

That's his brother, whom he grew up with.

"You Ran, isn't this going too far? He... he grew up with me."

At this moment, Long Yin finally understood why You Ran had also called him in.

These words were not only spoken to Luo Bai, but also to himself.

Because, like Luo Bai, he has a common weakness: a soft heart.

"But he doesn't treat you like a brother he grew up with, otherwise he wouldn't have been so disrespectful to you, the clan leader, just now."

"And you still insulted You Ran like that!"

Mu Youran didn't expect that it was Long Yin, whom she usually thought couldn't endure much hardship and was used to a life of ease, who was the first to see the light.

She smiled slightly and said, "I didn't use my position for personal revenge."

"If you really can't do it, then let someone who can do it do it!"

Luo Bai took a deep breath. He understood that Long Yin and You Ran were right, but he still felt some resistance.

He didn't want to kill his former brothers, which was probably why his father often knocked his head.

But he understood even more clearly that he was now the clan leader, and there were some things he had to do through certain means.

Otherwise, the Sunset Tribe might be destroyed in his hands.

"I'll go myself!"

There are some things he needs to settle down with.

Night falls.

Luo Bai felt a little heavy-hearted, and took advantage of Chang Sheng being alone to immediately block his way.

"Chang Sheng, let's talk."

His lack of imposing manner made Chang Sheng feel that he was particularly easy to bully.

He gave a disdainful sneer: "What's there to talk about between us?"

"Why didn't you go and have a proper talk with her when we were kicked out by that bitch earlier today?"

He stretched his neck and said arrogantly, "You can talk to me if you want, but only if you dump that bitch Mu Youran first!"

The vicious tone, with its constant use of the word "slut," instantly filled Luo Bai's guilty conscience with anger.

Only then did he realize how foolish he had been, still thinking about his brotherhood with him.

Pooh!

What a load of rubbish!

Chang Sheng didn't treat him like a brother at all!

She raised her head to meet his arrogant gaze, her eyes flickering slightly: "You're right, it was my fault today, I apologize to you."

"I brought you a lot of things. Why don't we go to the woods over there and I'll give them to you?"

Upon hearing this, Chang Sheng's eyes lit up instantly, for money was his favorite thing.

Luo Bai must have realized I was angry, so he brought me something nice to beg for forgiveness!

Just like Huang Yu back then, even though Chang Ya is dead, you can still extort a large amount of seashells from him!

But in front of him, he pretended to be giving Luo Bai face and reluctantly agreed.

"Alright, I'll give you that much face!"

This tone made Luo Bai very unhappy, so he led him directly into the depths of the woods.

Looking around and seeing no one, he stopped and turned to look at the dying man.

"Where's the stuff? Hurry up and bring it out!"

He had been walking for quite a while and was getting a little annoyed.
