It wasn't just the Tao tribe who thought this way; Mo Chuan actually thought the same.
After all, the Tao tribe has always been led by outsiders, especially those from Beast King City, who love to take over the tribe.
Instead of wasting time and energy trying to get people to sell themselves, it's better to just ask this sucker new clan leader for a refund, so as to avoid having to bear a bad reputation!
Mo Chuan gestured with his chin at her: "Hurry up, new clan leader!"
Mu Youran was completely speechless. The position of clan leader had suddenly fallen from the sky and landed on her head. It was obviously a problem, and a big problem at that!
Turning to Xia Tu, who remained silent, she said, "Tell them whether I am your clan leader or not!"
Xia Tu never imagined that the fire of lying would burn him.
Although he didn't like to talk, he was very clear about the pros and cons of this matter.
He secretly glanced at Mu Youran, who had helped him buy his pottery. The sharp look in Mu Youran's eyes frightened him, so he quickly looked away and then looked at the tribesmen beside him.
Each face bore the look of worry, fear, and anticipation.
If he denies it, he fears that his clansmen, including his partner, will be taken away and sold by Mo Chuan.
But if he said yes, his conscience wouldn't allow it, and he was in a real dilemma!
"Xia Tu, feel my belly, the little one can already move inside~"
At that moment, he heard a soft female voice in his ear. He looked up at his partner's swollen belly, where his baby was inside. It wouldn't be long before the baby was born!
Tears welled up in my eyes from heartache; the scales that had just been balanced were now slowly tipping.
Seeing this, Mu Youran felt a pang of unease and quickly said, "Beastmen must have a conscience; lying will be punished by the Beast God!"
She had already brought up the beast god that these orcs feared most, even though she sympathized with the plight of these Tao tribe orcs.
However, she didn't want to incur any unnecessary debt because of this.
They've come to the point of selling orcs; they probably owe quite a bit!
Otherwise, the rat tribe wouldn't have just abandoned their mission and run away!
Xia Tu knew the implications of this without Mu Youran needing to remind him.
He took a deep breath, raised his head, and spoke firmly.
"She...is our clan leader!"
Upon hearing this, smiles of relief spread across the faces of everyone in the Tao tribe.
That's good, someone will take the blame for their debts, and they won't be sold off!
Some people were already wiping away tears, tightly hugging the people around them to ease their fear.
Mu Youran was furious. She thought he was honest, but it turned out he was just pretending to be honest!
His gaze fixed on Xia Tu, he angrily questioned, "Why did you lie?"
Xia Tu didn't dare look at her; he knew he had lied.
But he really didn't mean it; he just wanted his baby to be safe and his partner to live.
If the Beast God really wants to punish him, then let him do it!
Anyway, it's worth it to exchange the life of one worthless male for the lives of the entire orc tribe!
At this moment, Yingxiao also became anxious. He thought his sister-in-law had some solutions, but he didn't expect to be betrayed and even burdened with debt!
"Don't talk nonsense, my sister-in-law is not your clan leader!"
Mo Chuan crossed his arms and approached, saying, "Stop denying it. You should be brave enough to take responsibility for your actions."
"Besides, becoming the chief of the Tao tribe isn't a bad deal. They're skilled at making pottery, so I can earn it back in just a few days!"
"What kind of sarcastic remarks are these?" Mu Youran glared fiercely at the snake-beastman.
"If it's so easy to make money, why don't you become the clan leader instead of dragging me down with you!"
Having been exposed so directly, Mo Chuan touched his nose sheepishly.
This female is pretty, but not cute at all, and her words are too sharp.
"Don't talk nonsense, how can you say I'm a scapegoat?"
"The main reason is that our Guanglin tribe is not suited for pottery making."
Ha, just kidding, can the pottery made by this pottery tribe still be sold now?
He's not stupid. Why would these three people come to a place full of trouble at this time?
Mu Youran took a step back and said coldly, "These trivial matters have nothing to do with me, nor do I belong to their clan leader."
"Eagle Cry, let's go!"
When the Tao tribe saw her turn to leave, they immediately blocked Mu Youran's path.
They all knelt down on the ground in a huge mass!
"Chieftain, you can't leave! Please save us! We can make pottery for you. Please don't let the Guanglin tribe sell us out!"
“We old folks have had enough of living, so we’d rather be slaves, but the females and the little ones, they can’t handle it.”
Please, save us!
A pair of scarred, black hands grabbed at her skirt and wouldn't let go; this was their only chance!
Two years ago, a god-like male came to their tribe and killed Tao An, who had committed countless evil deeds. It was all their fault for not fighting hard to keep him as their chieftain.
Unexpectedly, not long after, the rat tribe sent people again. The last one was lustful, and this one was greedy for money, making life miserable for the Tao tribe.
Now, at this critical moment, three orcs dressed so well have appeared. They must not let this opportunity to save themselves slip away!
They won't let go until they agree!
At this moment, even Hu Zhong and Ying Xiao were being held tightly by their thighs.
Hu Zhong wanted to pull his leg out, but he was holding a female and her cubs inside him, so he didn't dare to move too much for fear of hurting them.
All I can do is frantically grab my hair!
"Sister-in-law Wang, what should we do?!"
He almost let slip that they had agreed in Yunmengze that he should just call her sister-in-law, and not the princess, to avoid trouble on the road.
Now look what's happened! Because of the princess's meddling, she's gotten herself into trouble with such a bunch of shameless beastmen, and there's no way to get rid of them!
