Even with Ah Li pinching his face, Lan Zhao still smiled and said, "Don't be angry when I tell you, I am the patriarch of the Roc clan."
Ah Li's hand hadn't yet let go of Lan Zhao's face when Lan Zhao tightened his grip on Ah Li's hand and said, "Whether you come early or late today, I've already decided on you."
As Lan Zhao spoke, he kissed Ah Li and said, "I've really liked you for a long time."
The grass in the canyon rolled faster and faster, and Ahri's long hair and Lan Zhao's long hair intertwined.
Lan Zhao also said, "If I had taken you with me when the Roc migrated back then, would the story be different?"
"Um."
Lan Zhao hugged Ah Li tightly; with that answer, that was enough.
A few days later, Ah Li and Lan Zhao returned to the treehouse with a nest of eggs.
Doron wasn't there, and neither were the little ones.
Lan Zhao placed the six eggs where Ah Li was sleeping, and then he transformed into a magnificent roc and lay in the nest to incubate the eggs.
Ahri walked over and touched Lan Zhao's dark brown feathers. They were beautiful and had a sheen.
Lan Zhao leaned his bird head towards Ah Li, and Ah Li stroked the feathers on his head.
Lan Zhao has a ring of white feathers around her neck, like she's wearing a scarf, and there are also a few white feathers behind her tail.
Lan Zhao shifted slightly, a little embarrassed, and said, "Little peacock, don't look around like that. It's not like you haven't seen it before."
"Okay, then I won't watch it."
As Ahri spoke, she actually shifted her gaze.
Lan Zhao then said, "Ah Li, look at me instead."
Ah Li looked at Lan Zhao with amusement and said with a hint of helplessness, "You..."
Lan Zhao smiled at Ah Li, and Ah Li asked, "What do you want to eat later? I'll go prepare it."
"No need, someone will deliver it."
As soon as Lan Zhao finished speaking, a commotion came from outside.
Two members of the Roc tribe brought over the food, saying, "Chieftain, Chieftain's wife, we'll leave the food here."
The food included both meat and fruit, and the meat was either roasted or boiled.
"Thank you for your hard work."
Lan Zhaochao spoke to the two people, looking quite pleased. "These two are good; they even know to call Chief Ali's wife."
The two men didn't linger; they put the food down and left.
Ah Li went over and saw that the meat was wrapped in large leaves, so she took it and gave it to Lan Zhao to eat.
After eating the meat, Lan Zhao looked at Ah Li with great joy and said, "This is really good."
Ahri picked up a piece of meat and fed it to him, then looked around curiously, "I just don't know where Doron went?"
Lan Zhao knew where Duolun had gone. He moved his bird head and said, "Kiss me and I'll tell you."
Ahri laughed again, "How come I never noticed this side of you before?"
Lan Zhao's tail twitched, and he said, "Did I seem very safe and mature before?"
"Um."
"Because at that time, I wanted you to know that you could trust me and rely on me without worry."
Lan Zhao added, "Doron should take the children to the Peacock Tribe. There will be good news in a few days."
What are they going there for?
"You'll find out when they get back."
Lan Zhao spoke to Ah Li in a mysterious manner, and then told Ah Li to eat quickly.
Ahri didn't ask any more questions and ate the food with Lan Zhao.
Over the next few days, Lan Zhao will go out, and Ah Li will stay in the nest to incubate the eggs.
When all six eggs hatched, Doron and the children returned together, and they all looked quite happy.
When Doron saw that Ahri had six more cubs by her side, he patted Lan Zhao on the shoulder and said, "Your wish has come true."
"Thank you very much, Doron."
"We're family, so there's no need to be so polite."
Doron went over and hugged Ahri, asking, "Are you tired? Do you want something to eat?"
Ahri said she just watched the babies hatch; she wasn't tired at all, and laying eggs was easy and didn't cause any trouble.
Doron leaned close to Ahri's ear and whispered, "Then, let's hand these six cubs over to Lan Zhao."
Lan Zhao had no objection and held the six cubs to mark them.
The six chicks this time are all roc birds, three males and three females.
Some of the little ones went to see the baby, while others went to Ah Li's side and said, "Mother, you don't know, Father recently took us to the Peacock Tribe, and we won a great victory there."
"Yes, Mother, you will be the chieftain of the Peacock Tribe from now on."
"Mother, it was Father and Lan Zhao who gathered the people of the Green Snake Tribe and the Roc Tribe to go to the Peacock Tribe together."
As Ahri listened to the children talking, she looked at Lan Zhao and Duolun.
Doron looked at Ahri and asked cautiously, "Will you blame us?"
Ahri shook her head. "Why should I blame you? You went to the Peacock Tribe for my sake, and for those females in the Peacock Tribe who had no choice in their own lives."
Lan Zhao and Duo Lun looked at Ah Li together, and the three of them laughed.
They all wanted to change the situation, to change the one-woman dominance of the lion tribe, and to stop anyone from sending females out of the tribe in search of protection.
Later on, Ahri became the chieftain of the Peacock Tribe, but he was a chieftain who didn't care about anything and only wanted to have children.
The Peacock tribe grew stronger and stronger, and all the birds, whether flying in the sky or slithering on the ground, were all allies of the Peacock tribe.
These three tribes united and gradually formed a very large tribe, no longer needing to sacrifice females in order to gain the protection of a particular tribe.
