Knowing that this had happened, he was surprised by her way of doing things. Very few women would be so decisive and could not help but come over to chat.

But he said that.

It was a little like saying the Tribe Chief of Five Elements Clan was cold-blooded and heartless.

Gary hurriedly wanted to explain when he heard this. “Sorcerer, you’ve misunderstood our Tribe Chief. It’s not that our Tribe Chief is cold-blooded and heartless, but that person from the Thunder Fire Clan has really gone too far.”

Upon hearing Gary’s explanation, Gu Chaoyan interrupted him.

Facing the sorcerer, she articulated, “You mentioned that it’s unreasonable for me to take this stance. Have you considered the repercussions for me if I don’t?”

“Percy from the Thunder Fire Clan proposes ideas solely for the benefit of his clan. If I were to reject them, it would undoubtedly breed discontent within the Thunder Fire Clan. I’ve already committed to both clans to journey to the Huang Clan together. With the Thunder Fire Clan harboring grievances against my Five Elements Clan throughout this extended journey, can the two clans coexist harmoniously?”

“Now, due to Percy’s actions, the entire Thunder Fire Clan is entangled in this matter. They harbor resentment towards him. This extends even to the tribal level.”

“Moreover, since Percy instigated this, he should bear the consequences.”

Having conveyed her perspective, Gu Chaoyan refrained from further self-defense.

Hailing from a more civilized world, she was accustomed to rules and consequences for actions. In this untamed world, where such rules were less defined, she asserted her own principles. In her view, Percy, having provoked her, should be subject to the consequences according to her established rules.

At this juncture, the sorcerer clearly grasped the significance behind her actions.

Among the members of the Thunder Fire Clan, feelings were split between animosity towards Percy and animosity towards her.

As Percy initiated the situation, the onus should be on him to shoulder the responsibility.

The sorcerer nodded, realizing he may have delved into a topic better left untouched.

“I understand,” the sorcerer stated solemnly.

Gu Chaoyan nodded in acknowledgment.

The sorcerer, seemingly reluctant to delve further, glanced at her and then walked away.

Observing Percy’s departure, Gary trailed behind him.

Approaching the sorcerer, Gary ventured boldly, “The sorcerer might not be aware of the events leading up to this, which could explain his opinion of the Tribe Chief.”

The sorcerer fixed his gaze on Gary.

Aside from the Tribe Chief, Gary held a significant role in managing various affairs within the clan. During his time in the Five Elements Clan over the past few months, he had gained some insights. Despite always maintaining politeness towards a sorcerer like him, Gary had refrained from taking sides on many issues, always aligning himself with the Tribe Chief. His actions were driven by a genuine concern for the Tribe Chief’s well-being.

The sorcerer smiled.

He found the dynamics within this clan to be truly fascinating.

The individuals in the clan appeared to be distinct.

“What transpired in the past?” he inquired.

“Indeed. In the past, the Tribe Chief extended generous treatment to the members of the Thunder Fire Clan. Numerous resources from the clan were willingly shared with them. However, instead of reciprocating with respect, the Thunder Fire Clan responded with greed. They regarded the Tribe Chief and the Five Elements Clan not as allies but as sources to exploit.”
