Chapter 300 The Unassuming Yue Chu
After finally leading his team to clean up the battlefield and push the front line back again, he had been traveling non-stop and immediately returned to the battle. Even though he was in Leshan, he was inevitably a little tired.
Just then, a member of the tribe reported that the chieftain was fighting with birds and beasts. The moment Leshan heard this news, a cold sweat broke out on his back, instantly soaking his clothes.
"Hiss, how did they start fighting? The clan chief stayed in the back and didn't join the battle. Did he start plucking the feathers of the birds and beasts?" Leshan hurriedly spread its wings and flew in the direction the clansmen pointed, not forgetting to chirp a little.
He wasn't just saying that Le Chu seemed calm and composed now, but that was all an act. No one knew him better than him. They grew up together, and when he was young, he was no pushover; he was downright wicked.
As a child, he was always causing trouble with insects and birds and was never well-behaved. Every time he led the way in skipping class and playing pranks on the instructors, it was Le Chu who was always the one to get away unscathed. On the contrary, it was Le Chu who was punished for following along and causing trouble.
Sigh, there's nothing I can do; people who are too honest will get bullied.
However, as she grew older, Le Chu had hidden her true nature very well. As the head of the clan, Le Chu had always been kind to others and meticulous in her work.
He was able to bring back so many birds and beasts to help him because he was inspired by Le Chu. How could he lead the way in causing conflict? It's simply baffling.
His brows were furrowed tightly, and the anxiety in Leshan's eyes was genuine.
They had just repelled the first wave of insects, and their bird and beast companions and tribesmen were getting along very well. It would be a bad thing for them to start a conflict at this time.
Chieftain, you're so foolish!
You must remember to hold back, lest you get carried away and pluck all the feathers off those birds and beasts!
"Captain, I just heard that the chieftain got into a fight with birds and beasts. Is it true?" Le Man, who was always at the forefront of gossip, had just finished his work when he heard this shocking news from a friend. Without hesitation, he immediately followed Le Shan's footsteps.
He couldn't possibly miss such a lively event.
"Hmm, you're quite well-informed." Feeling rather down, Le Shan wasn't exactly friendly towards Le Man. But Le Man didn't care; as long as he could enjoy the gossip, what did a few disdainful looks matter? He was happy to oblige.
"Hehehe, it's a habit, let's do it together. Didn't the person who came to inform us say why the fight started? Who started it? The clan leader rarely fights. What are his chances of winning against birds and beasts?" Le Man was incredibly curious. Others relieve stress by resting, but he relieves stress by gossiping.
"Tsk, why so much talk? I don't know, the person who came to inform me just said a fight had broken out and I was already on my way. I didn't have time to hear the reason." His full-speed flight was not something that just anyone could keep up with.
It was this guy, Leman, who, just to watch the drama unfold, trained himself to become the fastest person in the clan. I don't know whether to be happy or amazed.
Is interest truly the best driving force?
"Oh, Captain, you're not doing a very proper job of gossiping. But it's okay, let's hurry over there, someone there definitely knows."
The tribesman, who had kindly come to report but was cruelly abandoned, was left far behind by the two. His face was streaked with tears. Were these two even human? He hadn't even finished speaking, why were they running so fast? He was chasing them until he was almost out of breath and still couldn't catch up.
It's true that the clan chief fought with the birds and beasts, but it was just a friendly spar. He came over only out of respect for Leshan, the captain of the guard team, but he seems to have misunderstood something.
Well, any misunderstandings have nothing to do with him; it's their own fault for not listening to the whole story.
Le Shan, who was in a hurry to clean up the mess for Le Chu, was unaware that he had missed important information. He was only thinking about not letting Le Chu get into a conflict with the birds and beasts, thus wasting all the effort he had put in along the way.
The journey, which should have taken only a few minutes, felt exceptionally long because of my mood.
Having finally rushed to the scene, Leshan was immediately drawn to the white and colorful figures that were sometimes intertwined and sometimes confronting each other. When he realized that the one fighting Lechu was actually Fanle Bird, Leshan's vision went black.
Oh no, this conflict turned out to be a brawl instigated by the leaders of both sides; it's not going to end peacefully now. Others might not know about Le Chu, but he certainly does.
He was a complete scoundrel, either never making a move, or when he did, it was always a single, decisive strike. He never acted impulsively; he always thought things through carefully and then chose the method that was most advantageous to him.
This is why, from childhood to adulthood, despite being among the group where Le Zhong and he were both quite strong in combat, they were always overwhelmed by Le Chu.
It's because that guy is too cunning; even all of them combined couldn't beat him!
"Wow, Captain, I didn't realize the clan leader was so strong. He's holding his own against the Joyful Bird. Looks like this battle will be quite intense." Who doesn't love watching a thrilling fight, especially when the one on the field is Yue Chu, who rarely takes the field.
From his own perspective, Le Man roughly judged that the current situation on the field was basically even. Although the Floating Bird seemed to be large, it was not as agile as Le Chu. Therefore, neither of them had a way to break through the other's defense for the time being, and their several contacts were just probing.
"Heh, that's because you don't understand Lechu. Fanle Bird is going to lose."
"Ah, what?"
Startled by his captain's earth-shattering remark, Le Man frowned, staring intently at the movements of the man and the bird on the field.
Wait a minute, the Bird of Joy clearly seems to still have a fighting chance, so why is the captain so sure it's going to lose?
Not only did Leman think so, but every living creature present would never have imagined that the Prosperous Bird would lose this battle so easily.
Unexpectedly, not long after Leshan uttered those words, the once seemingly spirited Fanle Bird suddenly slumped to the side, its dark eyes revealing a look of terror and pain.
Its body suddenly became uncontrollable.
The enemy opposite him suddenly fell down, but Le Chu was not surprised at all; it was all within his expectations.
With a smile on her lips, Le Chu asked, "So, are you admitting defeat?" Her eyes, which had remained calm and undisturbed throughout, looked over indifferently, without a trace of a smile.
That one sentence was like a drop of water poured into a hot oil pan, instantly igniting the entire scene.
The hushed discussions among the tribespeople, interspersed with the cries of birds and beasts, created a lively scene.
Le Man only then came to his senses, glanced at Le Shan in surprise, and his admiration for the captain reached a new level.
Leshan ignored Leman's eager gaze and showed no intention of explaining anything to him. He kept his eyes fixed on the field, afraid that Fanle Bird would show a sign of being unyielding, which would make things difficult.
We can't let Lechu kill Fanle Bird, what would happen to its underlings?
It's unclear how loyal this mixed-race group is. If their leader is killed, will they rise up in retaliation or obediently submit?
Raising his hand to touch his chin, Leshan was already prepared to clean up the mess for Lechu.
Compared to Leshan's anxiety, Lechu on the field appeared quite relaxed. The Fanle Bird had been rendered unable to stand by his attacks, let alone retaliate, and the battle had completely tilted in his favor.
Now it's up to Fanle Bird to choose: to admit defeat or to fight to the bitter end. Whichever he chooses, Le Chu will stand by him through thick and thin.
