Peerless Divine Doctor
Chapter 2439 - 2440: Shui Yuehan
As soon as those ten or so young men saw the flames, their faces immediately changed.
"The Moonwater Tribe is very imposing, today we admit defeat, but the future is long. My clan’s elder brother will definitely go to the Moonwater Tribe to demand justice!" said the young man, speaking stiffly.
As they spoke, several people made a gesture as if they were about to retreat.
"Wait, I said, if you were to kowtow a few times, I might let you go, but I never said you could leave just like that!" The man persisted relentlessly.
"Aren’t you being a bit excessive? Your Moonwater Tribe is nothing compared to our Kunshan Tribe. Doing this will bring disaster upon your tribe!"
The young man was not reckless, and immediately shouted loudly.
However, the man on the unicorn was utterly unmoved and only sneered.
"What a joke, can you insignificant lot possibly represent the Kunshan Tribe? Even if I were to kill you, the Kunshan Tribe wouldn’t cause trouble for the Moonwater Tribe over you. If you don’t believe me, you can try!"
Upon hearing this, the young men’s faces changed again, clearly realizing the truth in his words.
Seeing this, Ye Luo almost laughed. These young men, though arrogant, were very poor at handling the situation.
Ye Luo could tell that the Kunshan Tribe should be more powerful than the Moonwater Tribe, and if it were he, he would use this to negotiate with the man on the unicorn.
But these young men were not Ye Luo, and they were already starting to panic.
"Alright then, let’s not say that I bullied you. If you don’t want to kowtow, that’s fine too. It depends on whether you show sincerity!"
The young men immediately realized that this was an attempt to demand something of value from them.
However, although the name Kunshan Tribe sounds ordinary, the tribe was named after the Kunshan totem, and for its people, reputation was more important than life.
If these people were to kneel to the Moonwater Tribe today, they would be executed immediately upon returning.
Therefore, upon hearing this, they immediately began to empty their pockets, bringing out all their wealth.
But these young men were of low status in their tribe and had nothing worthwhile to offer.
At least, Ye Luo was completely uninterested in what they brought out.
But then, when they pulled out some shiny stones, Ye Luo’s eyes immediately lit up.
It’s crystal stones! The ones containing space-time laws that the Patrol Envoy had given them earlier.
Unexpectedly, they came from here! It seems they might be a common currency among tribes.
If so, this is good news for Ye Luo, for with these they could have a much better life in the storm channel.
However, the young man on the unicorn was clearly dissatisfied and furrowed his brow.
"Are you all trying to get yourselves killed? With just these things, do you take me for a bandit?"
The young men immediately forced a bitter smile.
"What are you saying, this truly is all our possessions!"
The young men felt quite vexed, knowing that a Moonwater tribe member with a unicorn must be of royal lineage, far beyond their own status.
Earlier they had been tough only to seize a chance for themselves.
"Forget it, consider me unfortunate, you may go!"
After saying this, the man on the unicorn waved impatiently at the young men.
The young men immediately took off as if they had been pardoned, running towards the distance, daring not to pay attention to Ye Luo or the others.
However, Ye Luo’s gaze fell upon the unicorn and the man.
After all, he was uncertain of this person and beast’s attitude.
Then, the unicorn carried the man slowly to Ye Luo.
"I apologize, the Kunshan Tribe is always arrogant and aggressive. If you don’t mind, you can travel with me and come to the Moonwater Tribe with me. Although my tribe is not the strongest, we can certainly protect you!" the man said calmly.
Though his words showed a degree of warmth, his manner was extremely haughty.
Ye Luo could clearly see that this was not intentional, but rather a long-standing disposition.
Just like the royal family on Earth; unrelated to strength, a product of a unique environment.
This indicates that the man’s status in the Moonwater Tribe is fairly high.
Such a person, since he spoke these words, likely has no ulterior motives against Ye Luo or the others.
Yet Ye Luo was curious as to why he would help them.
But since Ye Luo was completely unfamiliar with his surroundings, traveling with him seemed a good option.
"Then, we trouble you, sir!" Ye Luo quickly said.
"Sir? Your external regions’ terminology is quite strange. My name is Shui Yuehan, and you needn’t call me sir, it sounds awkward. Just call me Young Master Han!"
"Alright, Young Master Han!" Ye Luo immediately corrected his address, for he had learned well the importance of adapting to local customs.
Shui Yuehan said nothing more, nodded slightly to the two and then urged the unicorn forward.
Ye Luo safeguarded the Third Princess, following behind the unicorn.
However, their situation was far from ideal.
After all, given the uncertain circumstances, they couldn’t use the power of their battle armor. If it were just Ye Luo, it wouldn’t be much trouble, but he also needed to use mana to protect the Third Princess.
Furthermore, Ye Luo couldn’t exert full power; he must hide his strength to guard against unforeseen events.
As a result, he felt somewhat strained.
Fortunately, it wasn’t long before Shui Yuehan stopped and glanced at the two.
"I overlooked that you’re outsiders and aren’t yet accustomed to the environment here. You’d better wear our Moonwater Tribe garments, this will prevent many troubles!"
With that said, he tossed them two sets of Moonwater Tribe clothing, embroidered only with two crescent moons over a lake, perhaps symbolizing the Moonwater Tribe’s totem.
Originally, Ye Luo wasn’t interested in the Moonwater Tribe’s attire, but as soon as he received it, his face changed significantly.
The clothing actually contained Dao Tempo! And it’s based on space-time laws, similar to the Dao Tempo he understood from the Thunder Principle, both considered minor paths but exceptionally precious in the space-time channel!
Ye Luo thanked him, then changed into the outfit.
Sure enough, the outside environment immediately weakened significantly, not only for Ye Luo but even the Third Princess could easily deal with the surroundings with these clothes.
