章節 34: Tribe members righteous curses
The two journeyed towards the Crimson Mammoth Tribe's hideout. The ride was smooth, and the terrain was not too difficult to traverse.
Wang Jian held Kang Huian tightly against his chest, his hands tracing the curves of her body as the chariot bounced and swayed on the rough road. She tried to pull away, but he held her tighter, nuzzling her neck and enjoying her luscious body.
Kang Huian remained silent, her face twisted in discomfort and anger at his touch, but she didn't dare to say anything to him.
As the journey continued, Wang Jian's caresses became more aggressive, his hands roaming freely over her body, leaving a trail of heat and desire in their wake. Kang Huian gritted her teeth, hating the way he touched her but also feeling a strange mixture of arousal and fear. She knew she had to endure his perversions if she wanted to survive this ordeal.
The chariot finally arrived at the Crimson Mammoth Tribe's hideout, and Wang Jian let go of Kang Huian. She stepped off the chariot, her eyes burning with anger and resentment towards him, but she said nothing.
As Kang Huian returns to her tribe, she is met with angry reactions from her tribe members, who saw her intimate contact with Wang Jian on the chariot.
One of them shouts at her, "What is wrong with you? Have you forgotten who you are? You have shamed our tribe!"
One of her fellow tribeswomen continues, "How could you do this to your father? He trusted you to represent our tribe with dignity, and here you are, cuddling with a man like a common whore!"
Kang Huian felt guilty and frustrated at the entire scenario. She tried to defend herself, "It's not what you think. He forced himself on me. I didn't want any of it."
"Do you really think we are so foolish as to believe your lies? You willingly boarded his chariot and behaved intimately with him. Your brazenness is astounding, to say the least. I cannot fathom how you could allow yourself to be so close to this man!" one of them said.
"I can't believe you would betray us like this. You've always been such a loyal member of our tribe, but now you've shown your true colours!" another one added.
"I-it's not like that," Kang Huian replied weakly.
'
"Silence! It is for us to decide. You are no rightful heiress of our tribe for fooling around with our adversary!" A woman, bearing considerable influence, bellowed.
The sentiment was shared by other members of the tribe, who voiced their dissent in unison.
The sight of her own tribe members rejecting her claims without even trying to believe her left Kang Huian torn between guilt and frustration. While she was somewhat contrite for having sought Wang Jian's aid, it was vexing to see her efforts go unacknowledged by her own people, despite her many sacrifices on their behalf.
Wang Jian stood firmly on the chariot, watching the scene unfold before him with a wicked grin on his face. He knew that this would only add to the resentment that Kang Huian already harboured towards her own tribe, and he relished in the thought of using this to his advantage.
As Kang Huian's tribe members continued to shout at her and accuse her of being unfaithful to her clan, Wang Jian stepped down from the chariot and approached them. With a calm and collected demeanor, he spoke to the tribe members, "I understand your anger and frustration, but take a look at the bigger picture here. Kang Huian came to me because she wanted to help you all. She knew that only I have the ability that could aid you in this predicament."
He paused for a moment, letting his words sink in before continuing, "But, if you continue to treat her with such disrespect and disdain, she may start to lose faith in your tribe. She may begin to think that her efforts are in vain and that you do not appreciate her sacrifice."
Wang Jian's words were like honey, sweet and inviting. The tribe members began to listen to him, their anger slowly dissipating as they thought deeply.
"W-What are you talking about?"
Wang Jian rolled his eyes upon hearing their question and stared at Kang Huian, "Explain the situation to them."
Kang Huian remained dumbfounded for a few moments before she understood what he meant. She turned towards her clanmates and began to speak, "…Wang Jian possesses a secret skill with which he can treat the poison. That is why I rushed to him to beg him to help us."
"Then why were you acting so intimately with him on that chariot?!" A woman bellowed.
Wang Jian responded casually, "It's your good fortune that Huian is a beauty. She had to entertain me along the way in return for healing you."
This was all the explanation that he provided. Although Kang Huian's clanmates were dubious of this reasoning, they accepted it for the time being.
It was only natural because they wanted to be treated as well.
Meanwhile, Kang Huian was shocked to hear his words. She failed to understand why Wang Jian wasn't informing them of their true deal.
Wang Jian had stated earlier that he would only heal them if each one signed a lifetime slave contract with him. It took her a moment to realize that he must have been messing with her.
'H-he is terrifyingly evil! He was making me dance on his palm this entire time,' Kang Huian thought.
Wang Jian's sly gaze shifted towards Kang Huian as he uttered, "Take me to your father. I will heal him first."
Kang Huian hesitated for a moment, her gaze meeting Wang Jian's, searching for any hint of his true intentions. But all she saw was a twisted smile, sending shivers down her spine.
With a forced look towards her tribe members, Kang Huian led Wang Jian towards the canvas where her father lay.
As Wang Jian followed Kang Huian to the canvas where her father was resting, he carefully observed his surroundings. He saw that Kang Huian's father was lying unconscious on a comfortable bed made of feathers, guarded by some of the tribe's most powerful experts.
