I Became The Chief of A Primitive Village

Su Bai narrowed his black eyes as he intently watched the incoming crowd. He raised his hand in preparation.

He silently counted the time in his mind before giving the order. “Launch the Animal Hide.”

“Yes!” The two operators of the catapult responded in unison. After a few quick manoeuvres, they launched the massive Animal Hide.

*Whoosh!*

The large Animal Hide flew out, dripping Kerosene Fruit Juice as it had been soaked in plenty of it.

“Everyone stop!” Hei Mu immediately raised his hand and shouted, puzzled as he watched the Animal Hide flying toward them.

Hei Lin frowned, looking up at the Animal Hide in the sky, as he asked, “Father, what are they doing?”

Before his words were finished, the massive Animal Hide came crashing down, directly covering the Totem Warriors at the front of the charge.

“What’s going on? It stinks!” Hei Mu scowled at the hide above him in disgust.

“Cough cough…” Hei Lin was choked by the smell of the Kerosene Fruit Juice, coughing incessantly, “Why is it so wet and so foul?”

The rest of the Black Snake Tribe began struggling as well. Since it was night and the stinking Animal Hide was causing chaos, they all began shouting.

“What is this thing!? It won’t tear apart!”

“It smells horrible. Why is it so sticky!?”

“I can’t see anything! This stuff got into my eyes!”

The Totem Warriors at the front were thrown into complete disarray, and the Warrior Trainees at the back, not knowing what to do, rushed to help tear off the massive Animal Hide.

Su Bai’s lips curled into a slight smile. He raised his hand again and gave another order, “Shu Feng, you and Cheng Shi pour those two barrels of Kerosene Fruit Juice down.”

“Right away.” Shu Feng nodded, grabbing one barrel each with Cheng Shi, and flew into the air.

*Splash, splash…* The two of them ascended and poured both barrels of Kerosene Fruit Juice evenly over the Totem Warriors and Warrior Trainees below.

Hei Lin was going crazy. Just as they had gotten one problem under control, another arose, leaving his body drenched in sticky liquid.

“What is this stuff!? It’s not water!” Hei Mu cursed, furiously wiping at the liquid on his body.

Su Bai did not give them a chance to breathe. Raising his hand again, he commanded, “Light the fire and shoot.”

“Yes.” The thirty Archers nodded.

Each of them pulled out their fire stones, igniting the arrowheads coated in Kerosene Fruit Juice.

*Whoosh…* Thirty arrows soaked in Kerosene Fruit Juice were set ablaze, their light illuminating the faces of everyone present.

The thirty Archers, faces serious, nocked the flaming arrows on their longbows, aiming at the large Animal Hide.

*Thud thud thud…*

*Boom boom boom…*

The thirty flaming arrows struck the massive Beast Hide, and within seconds, it burst into flames.

Flames illuminated the entire sky, casting a bright light over the battlefield. Now, each person’s face was clearly visible.

Naturally, the expressions were very different. Those on the Black Snake Tribe’s side were filled with shock and terror, while the Flame Dragon Tribe side wore expressions of satisfaction and joy.

The Animal Hide had been soaked in Kerosene Fruit Juice, it ignited rapidly and burned fiercely. The people trapped beneath the burning hide were screaming, as much of the Kerosene Fruit Juice had splashed onto their bodies.

Sparks rained down on them, and the fire that started on their bodies could not be extinguished, quickly engulfing them.

*Boom boom boom…* The original fire was not that large, but as the Black Snake Tribe members caught fire, the blaze intensified.

A vast area of flames burned brightly in the night, making the scene even more terrifying as the screams of the Black Snake Tribe echoed through the night air.

“Ah! It hurts!”

“Why won’t this fire go out? It’s getting worse!”

“Is this a Shaman Technique!? It hurts! Ahhh-!”

The Black Snake Tribe was consumed by their agonising screams, their faces etched with pain and despair.

Even the Warrior Trainees close to the Totem Warriors were affected, shouting in panic.

Shaman Hei Tu stood frozen, shocked by this unexpected move from the enemy. For the first time, he was unsure of what to do.

In the dark night, the roaring flames, and the pitiful screams of the Totem Warriors threw Shaman Hei Tu’s calmness into chaos.

“Shaman, what should we do!? The Chieftain and the others are burning!” One of the Warrior Trainees asked in fear.

“Fetch water! What are you waiting for!?” Shaman Hei Tu yelled.

“Yes, yes, yes!” the Warrior Trainees shouted in panic and rushed back to the Tribe to fetch water.

Meanwhile, Su Bai watched the scene with a smile and said, “Xiu, it’s your turn.”

“Yes.” Xiu had been eager for action, though the previous scene had left him shaken.

He had not expected the Flame Dragon Tribe’s Shaman to have such a trick up his sleeve, making it clear why he had remained calm from the start.

He recalled the words of Shaman Lu Shan: [‘working hard at times like these was always beneficial to the Tribe’.]

Xiu led two hundred Warrior Trainees and sixty Totem Warriors in a charge, each tightly gripping a stone knife.

“Chieftain, Qing Yan, Yue, Cang Shi, prepare yourselves! Have the Totem Warriors use the recurve bows to cover the Spotted Deer Tribe!” Su Bai paused for a moment, then continued, “Thirty Archers and the Warrior Trainees, prepare yourselves as well!”

“Yes!” everyone responded in unison. They were all brimming with confidence, not for any other reason but because so far, the Flame Dragon Tribe’s plan had gone smoothly. Moreover, the Black Snake Tribe had suffered significant losses. With the Shaman’s clear instructions, their morale was sky high.
