Zhou Ji felt that the people from this primitive era were really too simple. Any thoughts they had were shown on their face.

As they approached the Little Brook Tribe, some people came out of the tribe to meet them. And when those people saw the goods they were carrying, their eyes gleamed with indescribable greed.

There was something very wrong with these people, yet Xiong Qi, Xiong Ye and the others actually hadn’t noticed anything.

“We’re from the Big Bear Tribe. I’ve been here before, and I’m looking for your tribal chief Bao Cheng.” Xiong Qi spoke up.

The person at the head of the group who had come out was an unshaven, burly man. He glanced at Xiong Qi and laughed gleefully, “Big Bear Tribe? Come with me.”

Xiong Qi was about to lead everyone inside, but Zhou Ji frowned and said, “We’ve already arrived. Isn’t the Little Brook Tribe’s tribal chief going to come out to greet us?”

Xiong Qi froze when he heard these words. He was somewhat unable to gather his wits together as he turned around to see Zhou Ji standing at the back of the team, his brows furrowed in an unhappy expression… What was Zhou Ji doing?

Xiong Ye was equally puzzled. Zhou Ji didn’t concern himself with anything and was very gentle and moderate. He had never shown an expression like this before. Was something wrong?

Xiong Qi was about to ask about it on the spot, but Zhou Ji abruptly spoke up again and forced Xiong Qi to stuff his words back down his throat.

Zhou Ji’s tone carried traces of discontent, “Are the people of the Little Brook Tribe… really so impolite?”

Xiong Qi and the rest of the people from the salt team were all bewildered. Polite?

As for the man standing opposite to them, his expression turned solemn as he looked towards Zhou Ji.

He had already planned to take all their goods as soon as he saw Zhou Ji and their team. He was even more determined after learning that Zhou Ji and the others were from the Big Bear Tribe.

They were people from the Giant Tiger Tribe.

The Giant Tiger Tribe was a large tribe of over two thousand people. After their population had reached a thousand, they could no longer support so many people in the tribe due to lack of food, so they had been faced with two options.

One way was to split up the tribe and send a group of people out to another place to live. The other way was for the entire tribe to migrate together.

They had chosen the latter option.

At first, they had only wanted to find a place with enough food so that the tribe could thrive, but it was difficult to find a place that could accommodate a tribe of over a thousand people––they had so many people that they would end up hunting and eating all the prey in the surrounding area within a few months no matter where they went.

They had no choice but to continue migrating, and many of their elderly and weak had died as they wandered.

And it was at that time that they inadvertently entered another tribe’s territory.
