Chapter 1997
"If you save me, I can give you a lot of rewards. I promise you that you'll never need to worry for the rest of your life!"
The woman saw that Henry was a little hesitant, so she said impatiently.
"Well... I don't want you to give me anything," Henry said gloomily, "It's just the place of your wound..." "You're not young. Haven't you ever performed a combination ritual?"
The woman frowned and looked at Henry.
"Er... No, I didn't."
Henry was speechless.
This kind of combination ritual was probably the meaning of marriage, wasn't it?
Henry did not know anything about the situation in this Death Realm. Henry did not dare to say that he did not know what a combination ritual was, so he could only agree casually.
"All right, treat me quickly! When I get back, I can give you whatever you want!"
The woman said in the tone of an order.
"All right."
Henry saw that the woman's injury was very serious, so he didn't hesitate and untied the woman's clothes on her chest.
However, the arrowhead was very deep! Around the wound, there was a purplish-black colour! This arrow was actually poisonous! No wonder the woman that was so strong was unable to move.
"The arrow is very deep. I have to cut the meat off the arrowhead. It may hurt."
Henry looked at the wound and frowned.
"It doesn't matter! Just do it!"
As the woman spoke, she snapped a section of the arrow shaft with her bare hands and bit it into her mouth! "Fine!"
When Henry saw that the woman was so fierce, he did not hesitate to cut open the woman's wound with a bone knife and pull out the arrow. "Humph!"
The woman moaned and sweated in pain, but she bit the arrow shaft and did not move.
"Go get some water!"
Henry instructed the Divine Baby.
The Divine Baby took the leather sack and went to the river to fetch some water.
Henry laid down and sucked out the venom from the woman's wound. Then he washed it with water and tore off a piece of cloth to help bandage the wound.
The woman was in so much pain that she was sweating all over her body and she was about to faint.
"Can you still hold on?"
Henry was a little worried.
"It doesn't matter. Keep going!"
The woman ordered coldly.
"Okay!"
Without hesitation, Henry cut the woman's clothes, took out the poisonous arrow from her leg, sucked out the venom, and bandaged it for her. "Help me up!"
The woman said.
'Tve just taken the arrow out, you'd better lie down for a while!"
Henry frowned.
"That won't do. The barbarian traitor of the Brute Clan will probably come back again. Now that we're both injured, we won't be able to deal with them, even if they send a small squad of scouts!"
The woman struggled to stand up, but her legs could not be used at all.
Henry found a flagpole from the side and let the woman use it as a crutch.
"I don't want the flagpoles of the Brute Clan! You go and get our Hong Clan's flagpole!"
The woman looked at the flagpole in Henry's hand disgustedly.
"Er..." Henry saw that the flag on the flagpole had a tiger- shaped pattern, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, which was very ferocious. "Tear away their flag! Just use the pole!"
Henry tore off the flag on the flagpole and handed it to the woman.
The woman held the flagpole and tried to take a few steps, but she fell down again.
The wound on her leg was injected with poison. Although Henry had sucked out the venom, the remaining poison was still paralyzing her nerves. Henry's leg was lame, and he couldn't help her.
"Wait a minute."
On the battlefield, Henry found four flagpoles and tied them into a stretcher.
He found that there was a big bird drawn on another flag.
The giant bird had three wings and three tails. It was spreading its wings and flying.
When the stretcher was ready, Henry let the woman lie on it. He and the Divine Baby used a rope to drag the stretcher and drag it on the ground.
Despite the fact that the Divine Baby
had short legs, his strength was similar to that of an adult! After all, his body was cultivated with the body of the Fallen Angel. He was not an ordinary mortal! However, the woman was 1.8 metres tall and had a strong and healthy physique. She wasn't light either. Henry and his son were pulling her with great effort.
It took them a great deal of effort to pull the woman out of the battlefield by the riverbank and into the forest. They then passed through the forest and found a dry cave by a cliff.
On the way, they picked up a lot of firewood and put them on stretchers and brought them back.
Henry found a piece of dead wood and was ready to dig into it to get fire.
"You don't carry a match with you, do you?"
The woman took out something made of a bamboo tube from her bosom, unstoppered it and blew on it a few times. Then, the fire was set off.
"Er, my match. I lost it... Take a rest first. We will go to get something to eat!"
Henry, with the baby, was searching nearby. He used his bow and arrow to hunt an animal as big as a sheep. He didn't know what it was. He picked some fruit and returned to the cave.
The sky had already darkened.
The woman was sitting by the fire. She seemed to be feeling much better.
The three of them grilled the meat and ate the fruits.
"Which tribe are you from?"
The woman asked.
"I'm from... the White Feather Tribe."
Henry raised his own bony cane and shook the feathers on it.
"White Feather Tribe?"
"Why haven't I heard of it?"
The woman frowned in confusion and asked, "Where is your tribe's territory?"
"Er... it's right in front of the river."
Henry said vaguely.
Now, he was not familiar with the situation in the Death Realm. Henry couldn't expose his identity, so he had to answer the woman's questions so as not to expose his flaws.
"Is your White Feather Tribe within the radius of the Hong Clan and the Brute Clan?"
The woman asked again.
"Yes."
It seemed like there were two opposing clans in this Death Realm. One was the Brute Clan, while the other was the Hong Clan.
Henry pretended to answer as if nothing had happened. In fact, he quickly judged more information from the woman's words.
"No wonder I've never heard of your White Feather Tribe. You were part of the Hong Clan's alliance not long ago, right?"
The woman asked again.
"Yes, that's right."
Henry continued to answer the woman's questions.
"The hundreds of smaller tribes in the surrounding area are all fence- sitters. Sometimes, they're subjects to our Hong Clan, while other times, they're subordinate to the Brute Clan Your White Feather Tribe... are you truly submitting to our Hong Clan?"
The woman looked at Henry's dirty and shabby fur clothes, then looked at the feathers on the bone cane, frowning. She seemed to be doubtful of
Henry's loyalty.
"Our White Feather Tribe... has been exterminated!"Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Henry pretended to be distressed.
"What? Why?"
"A gang of Brute Clan rushed into our tribe a few days ago, burning, killing, looting and robbing us. We are the only ones left from our tribe!"
In order to prevent the woman from suspecting his identity, Henry made up some excuses.
This was to prevent this woman from really searching for the White Feather Tribe.
"These heartless b*stards!"
The woman cursed indignantly, and then turned to Henry and said, "All right, you follow me from now on and you can be a slave of our family. I will be
responsible for you!"
"I..." Henry was stunned.
How could this girl be so self-righteous as to ask him to be her slave? What was going on?
Henry couldn't believe his ears.
