Chapter 614 - 613, Bustling_1
Alright, if you say it’s training, what else can I argue? Of course, I have to listen to you.
After all, evolved beastmen are a minority, so our march was much slower than the speedy journey led by Xiu Yan, spending nearly two days to cross the Stone Field and arrive at Lamu Forest.
"Oh my, it’s scorching out here, there’s not a tree in sight on the Stone Field, I got a tan, haha!"
"Females prefer beastmen with a darker complexion. I also got a tan."
Hearing the beastmen behind him comparing their skin tone, Ji Nuan curled his lips, speechless. He wanted to tell them that females prefer handsome beastmen with dark skin...
"Shaman Ji Nuan! Hahaha!" A familiar voice sounded, bringing a smile to Ji Nuan’s lips. He rose up from his beast skin mats, looking over at Chief Meng Zhuo and the members of the Monte Tribe, who were striding over from the forest nearby.
"Chief Meng Zhuo, did you wait here especially for us?" Ji Nuan asked with a smile.
But before Chief Meng Zhuo could respond, a white-haired female broke out of the beastman ranks, "Shaman Ji Nuan, we meet again."
It was Mu Chun who had previously taken good care of Ji Nuan on Beast God Mountain.
"Did you bring the message to the Monte Tribe?" Ji Nuan approached and hugged Mu Chun.
Linking arms with Ji Nuan, Mu Chun replied, "Well, no, I was supposed to take the message to the Watson Tribe, but this good opportunity was snatched away by my Uncle Mu Qing, hmph!"
After saying this, she glanced at the smug-looking Mu Qing.
"We thought that the Eneru Forest would either go through Nia Forest or our Lamu Forest to reach Kunteng Forest. So we waited, in case you came through Lamu Forest, and then we can go together. Haha!" Chief Meng Zhuo finally found another chance to join the conversation.
"Is your team ready, Chief Meng Zhuo?" Ji Nuan asked, looking at the sparse group of beastmen behind him.
Meng Zhuo waved his hand, looking extremely pleased, "Everything’s ready. They’re waiting just ahead. Meng Tai is watching over them. As soon as we get there, we can leave immediately."
The beastmen didn’t bother with any more small talk; time was pressing. As soon as everyone assembled, they moved towards the Kunteng Mountain Forest without any delay.
The Kunteng Mountain Forest was bustling at this time. Since there was no stipulation on the size of tribes participating in the trade fair, many tribes that received the news, regardless of their size, had come to the Kunteng Mountain Forest, hoping to exchange the items they’ve prepared for the rumored, incredibly magical Divine Wood Tree Branches and Leaves.
The already lively Kunteng Mountain Forest instantly became more vibrant. The trading fairgrounds were set up on a vast plain, and tents were erected everywhere.
The wealth gap was clear. The rich, large tribes had luxurious and attractive beast skin tents.
The average tribes had tents that were patched together from pieces of small beast skins. Although it wasn’t very attractive, it could still shelter from the wind and rain.
The poor small tribes cut down a few trees to make frames, piled some grass on it, covered with large leaves, and held it down with a few stones.
"Ha~ Look at those small tribes, they don’t even have beast skin tents yet they want to participate in the trade fair."
"What good stuff can they have? Scrimping on a few tattered beast skins to make tents, they must be saving them for the exchange!"
