I Became The Chief of A Primitive Village

Sha Lan’s feet kept shuffling in place, visibly nervous. This was her first time encountering such a situation.

In her previous encounters with Ferocious Beasts, Sha Hong would easily kill them, and then roast them for their meat. This was the first time encountering an Ancient Blood Ferocious Beast, and a fast one at that – the Sharp Fanged Leopard.

If they were to engage in a fight with an Ancient Blood Ferocious Beast, they would certainly not be able to be at an advantage. It would take at least a dozen rounds to possibly achieve victory, and that was with the support of a Shaman Bone Tablet.

Even then, the probability of victory was not high. For a Mid-Stage Totem Warrior, it was at most twenty percent. After all, dealing with a Pure Blood Ferocious Beast was already challenging enough. Facing an Ancient Blood Ferocious Beast was akin to seeking death. It was even more unwise to rashly engage with a Speed Type Ferocious Beast.

If they were carelessly injured, it would be disastrous. Without a Shaman Bone Tablet, they could only await death.

“Mother, if you can run, just run away first. Don’t worry about me.” Sha Lan worriedly cried out. She felt completely useless. Rather than being a burden to her Mother, she would rather help her escape.

“What nonsense are you sprouting!? We both need to survive!” Sha Hong’s red eyes were filled with determination.

Although the chances of winning were low, at this point, they had no choice but to fight. Otherwise, both of them would become its meal.

“Mother, but we don’t have a Shaman Bone Tablet. What if we get injured?” Sha Lan worried.

She naturally knew of her Mother’s strength. However, a Totem Warrior without a Shaman Bone Tablet could not act recklessly when facing an Ancient Blood Ferocious Beast.

“We have no choice. We can only be extra careful.” Sha Hong slowly adjusted her position and continued, “Anyway, just do as I say. Run at the first opportunity.”

*Roar roar roar…* Just as Sha Hong finished speaking, the Sharp Fanged Leopard let out another low, ferocious roar. It also adjusted its position. Its thick paws easily snapped tree branches as thick as wrists, and its long tail swished back and forth.

Its blood-red eyes glared fiercely at Sha Hong, its upper and lower rows of yellow sharp teeth were fully exposed.

“Mother!” Sha Lan was still very worried.

“Say no more. Just get ready to run.” Sha Hong had already sensed its impending attack.

*Roar roar roar…* As soon as Sha Hong finished speaking, the Sharp Fanged Leopard fiercely leaped up, pouncing directly towards Sha Hong.

“Run!” Sha Hong instantly activated her Totem Mark, the markings on her body becoming visible.

At the moment the Sharp Fanged Leopard pounced towards her, she used all her strength to jump from her original spot in the shortest time possible.

As soon as she landed, she rolled twice and took another big step back, barely avoiding the Sharp Fanged Leopard’s first attack.

Sha Lan worriedly watched, her hands tightly clenched into fists. She was nervously biting her lower lip and frowning as she turned to run.

At this moment, she could only listen to her Mother. After all, a Mid-Stage Totem Warrior’s analysis of the situation might be different from hers. There might actually be a chance of survival.

If she did not listen, they would only end up as its meal. So no matter how difficult it was, she had to do as she was told.

Sha Hong, seeing her Daughter obediently running towards the big tree, nodded in satisfaction, then turned back to face the Sharp Fanged Leopard.

*Roar roar roar…* The Sharp Fanged Leopard sensed Sha Lan’s escape behind it. Perhaps angered that one prey had escaped, it became even more furious.

Sha Hong also knew she had enraged the beast. Her blue eyes kept scanning the surroundings, looking for the best escape route.

To confront an Ancient Blood Ferocious Beast, a Shaman Bone Tablet was necessary no matter what. Although she wanted to engage in a fight with the Sharp Fanged Leopard, it was clear that the chances of winning were slim to none. For the sake of the Tribe, her Daughter, and herself, she could not afford to be reckless. ȓÁΝo͍ʙĚ𐌔

She realised this after barely dodging the Sharp Fanged Leopard’s attacks twice. Rather than stubbornly engaging in a fight, it was more important to figure out how to escape.

*Roar roar roar…* The Sharp Fanged Leopard launched another attack, quickly running towards Sha Hong, its mouth wide open showing all its sharp teeth.

Sha Hong seized the opportunity, jumping away the moment the Sharp Fanged Leopard pounced.

After dodging, she quickly climbed onto the nearest tree, catching her breath and preparing for the next dodge.

Sha Hong blinked her blue eyes, looking into the distance. She only let out a sigh of relief when she saw her Mother climb up a big tree.

Just as she sighed in relief, the Sharp Fanged Leopard, as if enraged, pounced towards Sha Hong again, this time visibly more violent.

Although the Sharp Fanged Leopard was large, it could still leap very high into the air. In an instant, it jumped to a position parallel to Sha Hong.

*Snap!* The Sharp Fanged Leopard swiped with one paw but missed, directly snapping a tree branch as thick as a thigh.

Sha Hong, unable to dodge in time, had her foot slightly scratched. Blood immediately started flowing, but she still managed to jump to another big tree.

She had no time to attend to her bleeding calf, only feeling a burning sensation there as blood continued to gush out. The wound looked terrifying.

“Damn it. I didn’t manage to completely dodge it,” Sha Hong gritted her teeth in pain. That swipe was no joke. If she had been a bit slower, her entire leg might have been torn off by the Sharp Fanged Leopard.

The Sharp Fanged Leopard landed on the ground, licking the blood off its paw. Its blood-red eyes looked up at Sha Hong. Having tasted blood, it looked even enthralled by the hunt.

“You won’t touch me next time.” Sha Hong frowned, her calf wound continuously throbbing with pain.

She thought that if she could not shake it off quickly, she might become too weak from blood loss. By then, it would be impossible to escape.

She blinked her blue eyes, scanning the surroundings for her next escape route.

*Roar roar roar…* The Sharp Fanged Leopard kept roaring, preparing to pounce towards Sha Hong again.

Of course, Sha Hong would never give it the chance. She endured the pain and jumped to another big tree.

*Rustle rustle rustle…* She moved from branch to branch in quick succession, blood from her calf dripping down as she went.

Sha Hong could have continued jumping between trees to avoid the Sharp Fanged Leopard, but Sha Lan could not do that. So, she so far had to run on the ground with her Daughter.

A few minutes later, Sha Hong successfully ran to the big tree where Sha Lan was, leaving the Sharp Fanged Leopard roaring at the base of the tree.

Because the tree trunk was very thick and there were no low branches, the Ferocious Beast, not as agile as Humans, was unable to get there. Even if it could jump, the height was too much. Climbing was an even more impossible ask for it.

“Finally got rid of you.” Sha Hong said with a slight smile.

“Mother, you’re injured…” Sha Lan’s face was full of worry, her blue eyes immediately filling with tears.

Sha Hong waved her hand and said nonchalantly, “It’s fine. At least I’m still alive.”
