Outside, the moonlight was like water, and the calls of insects and nocturnal birds occasionally echoed.
Inside, the firelight flickered as Jiang Xuan and Qing Ye chatted extensively about the Vine Tribe and the Central South Wilderness, enjoying a delightful conversation.
It was only deep into the night that Qing Ye stood up and said to Jiang Xuan, “It’s getting late, I should go back to sleep.”
“Alright, be careful on your way.”
Qing Ye lit a torch and turned to leave.
As she reached the door, she suddenly rembered sothing and turned back to ask Jiang Xuan, “We’re going hunting in the Black Water Swamp tomorrow, are you interested in joining us?”
Jiang Xuan replied, “If I’m going, Tang Yuan will definitely follow.”
“That purple Fierce Bird? No problem, the Black Water Swamp is dangerous. With it giving warnings from the sky, we’ll be safer.”
Qing Ye didn’t really know what Tang Yuan ant, but she knew that the purple Fierce Bird was formidable and intelligent, and could be useful if it ca along.
“Alright, then tomorrow morning I’ll bring Tang Yuan to join you.”
“It’s settled then, get so rest. We’ll set off at dawn tomorrow.”
After finishing her words, Qing Ye happily waved the torch, descended the stairs, and returned to her dwelling.
After Qing Ye left, Jiang Xuan closed the stilted house’s door, went back to the hearth, and took out the magic fruit Qing Ye had given him, examining it carefully for a mont before putting it away.
Fruits like these have a significant effect on weaker warriors, but for a strong warrior like Jiang Xuan, the increase in power wouldn’t be much even if he ate it.
With that being the case, it’s better to keep it for future use, just in case.
Jiang Xuan stored his belongings and lay down on the bed made of reed stalks and Beast Hide, falling asleep in no ti.
After he fell asleep, the Divine Vine on his arm emitted a brief and faint glow, which quickly dimd again.
…
Early the next morning, Jiang Xuan woke up on ti.
He gathered his personal items and weapons and covered the burning wood in the hearth with ashes, a thod that could prevent fires and keep the embers smoldering for about a day.
Jiang Xuan closed the door and descended the stilted house.
By a shallow stream, he washed his face, using a beast hair toothbrush and specially ground salt powder to clean his teeth.
If people from other tribes knew he used salt to clean his teeth, they might beat their chests and call him wasteful.
Because salt is incredibly precious to the tribe people.
After washing up, Jiang Xuan walked towards the gathering place of the Crocodile Tribe’s Hunting Team.
The place was already bustling, and with his exceptional hearing, Jiang Xuan easily found it.
Because they were entering the Black Water Swamp, the Crocodile Tribe had gathered about a thousand warriors, all quite strong, mostly at least two-color warriors.
“Chief Xuan, over here!”
In the crowd, Qing Ye spotted Jiang Xuan imdiately and waved to him.
Jiang Xuan quickly joined Qing Ye’s side.

The content that follows is repetitive, update will co tomorrow morning.
…
“Crackle, crackle…”
In the hearth, the wood crackled as it burned, with the fla dancing continuously.
Qing Ye sat beside the hearth, curiously observing Jiang Xuan.
Jiang Xuan appeared to be about the sa age as her, yet his skills far surpassed hers.
Even in the large tribes, a Five-Color Warrior like Jiang Xuan at his age was extrely rare.
Qing Ye, among the young generation of the Crocodile Tribe, was already considered outstanding, yet compared to Jiang Xuan, the gap was enormous.
“Do I have a flower on my face?”
Hearing Jiang Xuan’s voice, Qing Ye finally snapped out of it, realizing that staring at a guest like that wasn’t very polite.
“No… no…” she stumbled briefly, but quickly composed herself.
Qing Ye detached a Beast Hide Bag from her waist, opened the bag, and carefully handed Jiang Xuan a bright red fruit.
“What is this?”
Jiang Xuan took the fruit, examining it curiously.
“This is the fruit of the Beheading Grass, which I got while hunting in the Black Water Swamp. Eating it can increase strength.”
“You saved Bai Ya, so this fruit is for you.”
With Qing Ye’s explanation, Jiang Xuan understood.
Beheading Grass must be one of those mysterious plants, its fruit enhancing one’s strength when consud.
Different mysterious plant fruits boost various warrior abilities.
Like strength, speed, vision, hearing, and so on.
Thus, the fruits of mysterious plants are extrely precious to warriors, and many risk their lives to obtain them.
Qing Ye’s offering of this strength-enhancing fruit as a thank-you gift was indeed sincere.
Jiang Xuan declined, saying, “Saving Bai Ya was just a small effort, I can’t accept sothing so valuable.”
But Qing Ye insisted, “Please, you must accept it. The Crocodile Tribe always repays its debts.”
Jiang Xuan wasn’t one for unnecessary formalities. Seeing Qing Ye’s insistence, he accepted it, figuring there was no point in refusing.
Only after Jiang Xuan took the fruit did Qing Ye’s face relax into a smile.
“Chief Xuan, can you tell about your Vine Tribe?”
Qing Ye was very curious about the Vine Tribe. A tribe capable of cultivating a young and powerful leader like Jiang Xuan? What kind of place must it be?
