Global Dungeon: My Support Is Too Strong

705 Ji Tribe

Lu Benwei was also very surprised.

After thinking for a while, he realized that the humans here did not seem to have the concept of monsters and demonic beasts. They were collectively called ferocious beasts.

“Sir, I think you might have misunderstood something,” the giant scorpion said, “Our races and lineages have different beliefs and ideals. After all, this is a world where the strong prey on the weak. However, the human race collectively calls us ferocious beasts.”

Lu Benwei understood the concept of this mainland.

The giant scorpion was flying close to the ground.

The setting sun pierced through the sky. The long night was about to end, and dawn had arrived.

“There, we’ve arrived at the Ji Tribe.”

In the distance ahead, a stone stronghold was rooted in the crimson ground. Rows of horse barricades were placed around the camp, ready to resist the enemy at any time.

A few muscular adult men were building fortifications in front of the stone village’s gate. They were dressed in animal skins and were bare-armed. Their muscles were as strong as tigers and wolves.

The giant scorpion said, “I’m a fierce beast. It’s inconvenient for me to show my face, so I’ll go back first.”

Lu Benwei thanked it for its kindness and said, “You can’t hurt good people in the future.”

“Yes, Sir!”

Coincidentally, Ji Han woke up. She yawned and rubbed her sleepy eyes.

The early morning sun sprinkled a faint layer of gold powder on her body, making her look beautiful.

“Ah, why are we back in the tribe?” Ji Han said in surprise.

Then, she quickly reacted and said to Lu Benwei, “Hongyi, thank you for saving me and sending me back.”

Lu Benwei grinned. “If you really want to thank me, why don’t you invite me to your village?”

Ji Han was stunned and did not say anything.

“Why not?” Lu Benwei joked.

“Welcome, of course,” Ji Han smiled and said.

The two of them walked together toward the Ji Tribe’s stronghold.

At this moment, two middle-aged men who were repairing the fortifications were chatting with each other in front of the gate of the stronghold.

“Sigh, damn the Jiang Tribe. They’re forcing the entire tribe to feel uneasy.”

The person who said this was tall and had a beard around his chin.

“Don’t worry, someone has already gone to invite the spirit. I believe that it won’t be long before the Spiritual Lord comes out of the mountain,” the person opposite him replied.

The bearded middle-aged man narrowed his eyes. “Who is it?”

“Who else could it be? The girl Ji Fei picked up from his family.”

“That’s true.” The bearded middle-aged man nodded. “The Ji Tribe has raised her for so many years. It’s time for her to do something for the Ji Tribe.”

“Oh right,” he suddenly said after a pause, “Ji Fei loves his precious daughter so much. Can he agree to it?”

“Hehe.” The other party laughed sinisterly. “Without Ji Fei’s permission, the Tribe Leader and I used a little trick to trick his precious daughter into asking the Spiritual Lord to come out of the mountain alone.”

The bearded man also laughed lewdly, revealing his big yellow teeth. “What a pity. That daughter of his is simply too beautiful. If she serves him once and asks the Spiritual Lord to come out of seclusion, it would be perfect.”

The person opposite him was also filled with regret.

The two of them continued to bury their heads in the construction work.

After a while, the bearded middle-aged man suddenly asked, “Are you sure that Ji Han went to ask the Spiritual Lord to come out of the mountain?”

“Why would I lie to you?” The man opposite him was surprised.

“But why did I see Ji Han and a young man coming back?”

The bearded man opposite him was very surprised. He followed the bearded man’s gaze and looked over. He saw Ji Han and Lu Benwei walking over, and he could not help but have a bad feeling.

At this moment, Ji Han asked in a low voice, “Hongyi, promise me that you won’t make things difficult for my people, okay?”

“You’re still speaking up for them?” Lu Benwei asked faintly. “They betrayed you.”

Ji Han was very conflicted. “But no matter what, they are my tribesmen. They have the same blood as me.”

“In that case, do as you wish. After I confirmed that you wouldn’t be hurt, I’ll leave,” Lu Benwei said.

Ji Han’s brows furrowed slightly as she struggled internally. “Hongyi, I’m sorry.”

“There’s nothing to be sorry about. It’s fate,” Lu Benwei said slowly.

“Thank you.”

Right at this moment, Ji Han saw the bearded men. A hint of struggle flashed in her eyes, but she still waved at them.

The bearded men put down their tools and looked at each other.

Many young men who were building the fortifications noticed Ji Han’s return and were surprised.

Then, someone immediately reported to the entire tribe. Not long after, a huge crowd walked out of the Ji Tribe’s stronghold. The leader was an elder with greenish-gray hair. His gaze was sharp and full of vigor. He held a bone cane and was welcomed by the crowd.

“Han Han, why are you back? And this young man is?” the greenish-haired old man asked.

Ji Han did not answer the first question. Instead, she said, “Tribe Leader, this is Hong Yi. He saved my life on the way.”

The Ji Tribe Leader’s eyes flashed with malice, thinking that Lu Benwei had ruined his plans.

However, he was not embarrassed to say anything. He chuckled and said, “Little brother, thank you for saving Han Han. The stronghold is barren and there’s really nothing to entertain you. Why don’t you stay and have some tea?”

Lu Benwei said directly, “No need. There’s nothing to say to you people with human faces and beast hearts.”

His words immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the Ji Tribesmen. They all looked at him gloomily.

The Ji Tribe Leader said, “Little brother, you can’t speak nonsense. What have we done to make you think that our Ji Tribe is a tribe with a human face and a beast’s heart?! You’d better explain yourself, or don’t blame me for being rude with my fists. Don’t think that just because you saved our tribesmen, we will let you off.”

“Ji Han, why did you bring anyone into the village? Aren’t you afraid that he’s a spy from the Jiang Tribe?” Someone else criticized.

Ji Han was speechless. On one side was her savior, and on the other side were her tribesmen.

At this moment, a big man pushed through the crowd and slapped Ji Han.

“Pa!”

This slap was very loud and sent Ji Han flying to the ground.

“Ji Fei, why did you suddenly hit the child?” The Ji Tribe Leader shouted.

“Father!” Ji Han fell to the ground and said aggrievedly.

“This child hid it from us and went to the Great Wilderness Mountains alone to ask the Spiritual Lord to come out of the mountain!” Ji Fei said.

“Do you know what the consequences are?” Ji Fei reprimanded Ji Han.

“Ji Fei!”

“Shut up!”

The Ji Tribe Leader’s expression immediately changed. At the same time, he started to panic.
