Chapter 282: The dowry sent by Lan Gu? (Ch 282)

After entering the Aqiu tribe, Azhan did not go home directly.

Instead, he went straight to the patriarch’s residence.

He carried the Sand Crocodile Battle Axe on his shoulder, and the axe blade reflected the cold light in the afterglow of the setting sun.

He wants to talk to the patriarch again.

As a contractor.

“Now I am a contractor.”

“We will become even stronger in the future. The chief should consider the help I can bring to the tribe and change his mind.”

Ah Zhan was thinking in his heart.

Then he gritted his teeth and said, “If you still refuse to give in and the chief insists on having your own way, I will take A-Lian and leave the tribe.”

“We can’t let A-Lian marry that pervert Lang Gu no matter what!”

With his belief made up, A Zhan quickened his pace.

He pushed open the wooden door of the patriarch’s residence and walked straight in.

“A Zhan? What are you doing here?”

The tribe leader Aqiu’s slightly puzzled voice came from inside the house.

He was half lying on a leather chair, holding a piece of greasy barbecue in his hand, and asked vaguely.

Ah Zhan quickly bowed and spoke in a respectful tone.

“Chief, Azhan came here because he hopes you can reconsider Alian’s marriage.”

When Ah Qiu heard this, his face suddenly darkened.

The originally calm face was instantly filled with gloom.

With a cold snort, he threw the half-eaten barbecue in his hand heavily onto the wooden table, making a dull “pop” sound.

“What are you considering?” Aqiu’s voice suddenly rose, with obvious displeasure in his tone.

“Why are you guys so stupid?”

“Being able to marry Lord Langgu is a blessing that girl A Lian has earned in several lifetimes!”

Aqiu sat up straight in his chair with his fat body, and his tone became more severe.

“This is a great thing that many people would beg for, why do you have to refuse it again and again?”

“I’ll make it clear in advance. We can discuss other matters.”

“Even after A-Lian gets married, I can decide on Lord Langu’s reward to our tribe and give more to your family.”

“But…” Aqiu changed the subject and his tone became tough again, speaking decisively.

“I won’t marry you. I absolutely cannot! This matter concerns the interests of our entire Aqiu tribe. I will not allow you guys to mess around here!”

Aqiu became more and more excited as he spoke, and his saliva almost sprayed on Azhan’s face.

His fat cheeks trembled slightly with anger.

A Zhan frowned and took off the huge battle axe on his back.

“when!”

With a loud thud, the battle axe hit the ground heavily, and the floor of the wooden house shook.

The axe blade sank deeply into the ground, and the axe handle was still buzzing, causing the clay bowl on the table to jump a few times.

The room suddenly became quiet, with only the lingering sound of the trembling battle axe echoing, silently emphasizing its weight.

After all, Aqiu did not become a contractor based on his own abilities.

He has been living a life of luxury for many years and has neglected exercise.

He is so fat, where has he ever seen such a scene?

He had no combat experience, and when he suddenly heard the loud noise, his fat body trembled violently.

I almost couldn’t hold the barbecue steady.

He shrank back in horror, and the chair legs squeaked harshly as they rubbed against the ground.

He stared at Ah Zhan in doubt and surprise, the muscles on his fat face twitching and his expression was a little frightened.

“What…what are you going to do?”

“I tell you, I am the clan leader!”

“You dare to attack me?”

Seeing him like this, A Zhan frowned even more.

He suppressed his impatience and shook his head quickly.

He lifted the heavy battle axe, and with great effort held it level, with the axe blade facing outwards, and showed it to Aqiu.

Veins bulged on his muscular arms.

“Master Patriarch, how dare A Zhan attack you?”

The tone was still respectful, but it carried an inexplicable firmness, which was completely different from the previous pleading.

“A Zhan wants to tell you that I have become a contractor.”

Aqiu was stunned.

His eyes were fixed on the huge, ferocious-looking battle axe.

He looked again at Ah Zhan’s obviously stronger body, sturdy arms, and powerful eyes.

Only then did he slowly realize the meaning of Ah Zhan’s words.

There was a complex light of doubt and uncertainty in his eyes.

My mind was racing:

Has he really become a contractor?

This kid is really talented, not inferior to his dead father at all.

Did you break through on your own without any help from anyone?

The contracted beast you caught yourself?

Look at this battle axe…Isn’t it probably a power-type contracted beast?

How did you do that?

This boy is a bit of a monster.

Thinking of this, Aqiu’s originally gloomy expression changed instantly.

The stiff smile returned to his face and his tone became enthusiastic.

“Okay, okay, Azhan, you really are worthy of being the genius of our tribe!”

He slapped his thigh and the fat trembled.

“This is such a great joyous event!”

“I’ll notify the tribe right away. I’ll definitely reward you handsomely this time!”

Aqiu smiled and shouted loudly towards the outside of the door.

“Someone, go and bring me the top-quality hide that I exchanged with great difficulty from the Beastmen city!”

“Also, let’s bring the jar of good wine that the priest sent us last time to celebrate for our tribe’s hero, A Zhan!”

But A Zhan didn’t want to hear these hypocritical courtesies and cheap rewards at all.

Rewards and the like are no longer important to him now.

What he needed was the promise of the clan leader, the clan leader’s personal guarantee that A Lian would not be sent to marry the pervert Lang Gu.

“Master Patriarch, A Zhan does not want any reward, but only wants you to reconsider A Lian’s marriage.”

Ah Zhan knelt on one knee, speaking in a calm tone.

Aqiu’s eyes rolled rapidly and the smile on his fat face was stiff.

Realize that things seem out of control.

“I will…”

Aqiu tried to delay and stabilize the situation first. When Lang Gu came to pick people up in person, how could he, Azhan, dare to say no?

However, before Aqiu could finish his words, a burst of hurried footsteps came closer and closer.

A tribal warrior rushed in breathlessly, with a look of panic and anxiety on his face.

Aqiu was interrupted and swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

The forced smile disappeared in an instant, replaced by anger.

What he hated most was being interrupted, especially at such a critical moment.

“What are you doing? You’re so flustered, how can you behave like that? Can’t you see I’m talking to A-Zhan about serious matters? You have no manners at all!”

The warrior shuddered at the chief’s anger.

But he didn’t bother to apologize, and said breathlessly and quickly:

“Chief, Lord Langu…Lord Langu has sent someone!”

Ah Qiu was shocked, “Lord Langu sent someone? Who did he send? What’s the matter?”

The soldier tried to calm his breathing, but his voice was still trembling.

“They say…they say they’re here to deliver the betrothal gifts first!”

“bride price?!”

Aqiu’s eyes widened instantly, and the anger just now was instantly dispelled by the huge surprise.

The obese body suddenly jumped up from the animal-skin chair.

“Where is it? Where is the betrothal gift? Take me to see it! Quick! Quick!”

His voice was a little out of tune and incoherent. Where was the arrogance and impatience he had just shown towards Ah Zhan?

When A Zhan looked at A Qiu’s appearance, he felt nauseous.

He suppressed the disgust in his heart and slowly stood up.

He picked up the heavy sand crocodile battle axe and followed Aqiu towards the entrance of the tribe.
