Chapter 1401: Chapter 1398: The Ups and Downs of Beast Life
Life as an orc is full of ups and downs, and that’s just about it.
When the Clan Leader eagerly arrived at Ji Nuan and Xiu Yan’s tent, the curtains had already been lowered, and even the sound of even breathing could be heard inside.
The Clan Leader’s face froze, and he quietly turned to leave, but his heart felt like it was being clawed by a cat.
Back at the grass shed area, the tribe members were still not asleep, each staring at him with wide eyes.
The Clan Leader awkwardly tugged at the corner of his mouth: "The Shaman has already gone to rest, let’s rest too and talk about it tomorrow."
The tribe members, hearing this, looked at the Clan Leader with eyes full of grievance.
The Clan Leader could only make a hasty retreat under the tribe’s gloomy gazes, diving into his own grass shed.
A moment later, his own female lifted the grass curtain and squeezed in: "Why are you running? Afraid the tribe will eat you up?"
The Clan Leader chuckled dryly twice: "I dare not meet the tribe members’ expectant eyes."
His female laughed lightly: "The Shaman and his Guardian Orc have been busy all day, they must be very tired. It doesn’t hurt to wait until tomorrow."
The Clan Leader sighed: "I suppose so. We can’t very well go wake up the Shaman."
With that said, the two beasts began to settle in to sleep, but...
"Are you asleep?" the female whispered.
The Clan Leader sighed: "Can’t sleep..."
"Clan Leader, we can’t sleep either..." the orcs’ voices came from outside the grass shed, nearly scaring the two beasts out of their wits.
Damn it, the attention was already scattered, and suddenly you pop up for what, to cause trouble?
The Clan Leader angrily lifted the curtain, ready to explode, but was startled by the scene outside the shed.
"Why aren’t you all sleeping, sitting outside my house for what?"
Looking at the pairs of green eyes outside, the Clan Leader also felt a little unsettled.
The tribe members sighed: "We don’t know what tomorrow’s result will be, we just can’t sleep."
"You’re all jabbering here, what if you disturb Shaman Ji Nuan? If he thinks we can’t keep our cool and doesn’t want us, we’re done for. Go to sleep quickly."
The Clan Leader seriously analyzed the importance of sleeping.
After exchanging glances for a while, the tribe members turned around reluctantly and went back to their grass sheds, but whether they could sleep or not...
Sleep is something that relies heavily on fate~
Early the next morning, Ji Nuan stretched lazily, waking up feeling utterly refreshed.
Lifting the beast skin curtain to step out of the tent, he washed up with the hot water Xiu Yan had prepared, feeling fresh and in fabulous spirits...
Just as Ji Nuan was marveling at the bright sun, he turned around to be startled by the haggard-faced Clan Leader behind him: "Oh my goodness, Clan Leader, what happened to you? Scaring an orc so early in the morning."
The two big dark circles could easily grant him a cameo as a national treasure in a zoo.
The Clan Leader knew his current image was definitely not great, but the question that had tormented him all night could finally be asked now. That excited heart, those trembling hands, almost unsteady like someone with Parkinson’s~
"Shaman, can we... I told the tribe members yesterday, we wish to join your tribe and become your people."
With that said, the Clan Leader looked at Ji Nuan with a face full of anxiety, holding his breath as if fearing rejection.
Ji Nuan looked at him amusedly: "Did you lose sleep over saying this?"
