Chapter 2001
The next day, when Henry woke up, Livaun said with a smile, "Is your leg okay?
"Come with me to build a wooden raft!"
"A wooden raft?"
"That's right. We can build a raft and go along the river. In two or three days, we should be able to return to the Hong Clan Tribe!"Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Livaun smiled again.
"That's a good idea!"
Henry also struggled to stand up with a cane.
"Is your leg okay or not?"
Livaun frowned and asked with concern.
"It's okay, it's just a fracture, I have a splint on my calf, as long as I don't exert too much force, I will be okay!"
Henry led the Divine Baby to follow Livaun to the riverside.
The riverside was in a mess and gave off a foul smell.
Livaun covered her nose and searched through the bones for a long time before finding a missing short iron sabre. "Let's go downstream!"
Livaun, together with Henry and his son, walked along the river for a while and found a flat riverside.
Livaun took the short iron sabre to cut down the thick trees. The Divine Baby was looking for thin twigs nearby.
Henry sat on the ground and tied up the raft.
The three of them knew that there weren't any members of the Brute Clan within the surrounding area, so they felt at ease. They were very efficient. After one day, they made a big wooden raft.
The raft was three to four metres long and two to three metres wide. It wouldn't be a problem for it to carry three people. "You guys go back first. I'll go and get more prey. We'll set off tomorrow!"
Livaun then commanded Henry and his son to return to the cave, and went alone to hunt two giant antelopes.
Livaun cut the meat of the antelopes into large pieces and roasted it, then put it on a skewer as a reserve food for the journey.
After a night's sleep, the three of them moved everything onto the wooden raft.
"You just need to lie on the raft and recover!"
Livaun spread out the animal skin and let Henry lie on the raft. Then she pushed the raft into the river with the baby and rowed the raft with bamboo clogs.
The river flow was very fast, so she didn't need to spend a lot of effort. All she needed to do was to use the bamboo clogs to control the direction, and the wooden raft would float downstream at an extremely fast speed.
When they were hungry, they began to eat the meat that they had prepared last night.
In the evening, Livaun did not hesitate to hug Henry and his son to sleep.
Although the Divine Baby was sleeping in the middle, Henry still felt very embarrassed.
Especially in the middle of the night, Livaun's long legs sometimes came over and pressed on Henry's injured leg, so Henry could not sleep at all. Livaun was already in her early twenties. Furthermore, she was a general of the Hong Clan, so she definitely understood the matters between men and women.
But she didn't guard against him at all, which made Henry very confused.
Did Livaun think that he wouldn't be able to do anything to her just because he had injured one of his legs?
Or was she not afraid of what he could do to her?
Thinking of the scene he saw when healing Livaun that day, Henry's heart couldn't help but rise and fall... Just like that, the three of them floated on the river for few days. The river once again flowed into an even larger river. On this evening, they arrived at a large lake.
The lake was huge, but it was completely empty. There were no tall trees around it.
Many tents were scattered around the lake.
It was like a camp of a nomadic tribe.
There was a tall wooden wall around the camp, and many guards with bows and arrows stood on the arrow tower.
"Who's there?"
When the guards on the arrow tower saw the rafts floating in the river beside the campsite, they nervously drew the bow and shot arrows at Henry and the other two.
"I'm Livaun!"
Livaun stood up from the raft and waved her hand.
"General Livaun!" "It's really General Livaun!"
"Hurry up! Go and report this to Tatum!"
As soon as the guards on the arrow tower gave the order loudly, the whole camp was in an uproar.
After a while, the gate of the wooden wall opened, a group of people came out on horses to greet them. Livaun rowed the raft to the riverside and went ashore with the help of Henry and the Divine Baby. "General Livaun!"
The group of people had already arrived at the riverside. A tall and sturdy middle-aged woman jumped down from the horse. She quickly stepped forward, knelt on one knee, put her hand on her chest, and saluted Livaun.
Although she looked very rough, she was decorated with a lot of colorful feathers.
"Tatum!"
Livaun helped the tall middle-aged woman to her feet.
"General Livaun, where are the others?"
"How come... only you come back?"
Tatum stood up and looked at Henry and his son behind Livaun in confusion.
"We've been ambushed!"
Livaun frowned. "Although I didn't bring many people with me this time, they were all elites of our Hong Clan. However, we were ambushed by the Brute Clan and were completely annihilated!"
"It's all thanks to Henry of the White Feather Tribe who saved my life. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to return!"
Then, Livaun introduced Henry and his son to Tatum.
"These insidious and despicable b*stards!"
Tatum cursed in a low voice but frowned at the same time. "How did they know your route?"
"Of course, someone told them in advance!"
Livaun sneered.
"What?"
"Are you saying... that there is a spy from the Brute Clan in our Hong Clan?"
Tatum frowned.
"Yes, and their position is not low!"
Livaun was deep in thought. "Well, let's talk about it after. I have to go back to Fupolis City as soon as possible to see Ursins!"
"It's already late. Why don't you rest in our Sun Lake Tribe for a day? Well ride horses tomorrow!"
Tatum held Livaun's hand.
"All right!"
So they entered the gate of the wooden wall and came to the Sun Lake Tribe.
Their camp was built next to the lake. By the lake, there were many white salt fields.
It turned out that this lake called Sun Lake was actually a salt lake.
Many men were working in the salt field.
Henry was depressed in his heart.
What he had been worried about was confirmed! In this Death Realm, there was not only a slave society but it was also a matriarchal society! Their tribe leaders were all women.
Moreover, Henry had just seen that the guards on the wooden arrow tower were all women.
Meanwhile, the ones working in the salt field were all men! The women all looked healthy and energetic.
However, the men's faces were yellow and their skin was thin. It seemed to be due to malnutrition.
Obviously, the men were inferior
slaves! As for Henry and the Divine Baby, they were men! How could Henry not be depressed... Sure enough, when Tatum held a banquet in her big tent, Henry and his son
were arranged to be at the bottom of the table.
At the banquet, except for Henry and
his son, the rest of the guests were all women. There was no other man! Henry and the Divine Baby had no choice but to eat the delicious bacon and the pickled wild vegetables
quietly.
On this day, the people of the Sun Lake Tribe were basking in salt by the lake. Their speciality seemed to be bacon and pickled vegetables.
"Livaun, have you already given your Divine Sun Wheel to Henry?"
Tatum was very polite to Henry.
She sat in the first position of the lower seat, looked at the necklace in front of Henry's chest with a meaningful look and said with a smile.
