After repelling the Beast Tide, the tribe held a grand bonfire celebration. Huge chunks of roasted meat, large bowls of fine wine, and the singing crowd made Ling Feng feel that everything was so natural and harmonious!

"Chief Tasuo, shall we continue the topic from the day?" Ling Feng approached Chief Tasuo and said, "This Endless Forest..."

With a loud clap, Chief Tasuo placed a jar of wine before Ling Feng. "Divine Envoy, today let's not discuss this matter. Repelling the Beast Tide is a day worthy of celebration. Come, let's drink!"

Ling Feng noticed the Clan Leader was already somewhat tipsy. He chuckled wryly, wisely choosing not to continue the discussion.

"Divine Envoy..." a burly man staggered over, clutching a jar of strong wine in his hand. "Today Divine Envoy, you saved my life, Taming. I won't say more words of gratitude; I toast you, and I'll drink first!"

Before Ling Feng could say anything, Taming lifted the jar and began to drink. Within twenty breaths, he had emptied the jar completely.

"Divine Envoy, initially I thought you were all just a bunch of troublemakers, but who knew... you're real men, true men. I, Taming, submit... I submit..." Saying these words, Taming hugged the jar and crawled under the table.

Ling Feng was somewhat speechless, but Chief Tasuo seemed accustomed to it: "Divine Envoy, today you were incredibly valiant on the battlefield. I believe many girls in the tribe will be fond of you; it's just who among them will receive the favor of the Divine Envoy tonight!"

Ling Feng's heart skipped: "Clan Leader, what do you mean by this?"

Tasuo laughed heartily: "Soon, girls from our tribe will present flowers to the bravest warriors, which means the girl agrees to spend the night with the warrior! This is one of the most anticipated events in our tribe!"

Wow, so open? Ling Feng was somewhat shocked. At this moment, he remembered what Tama previously told him, with a hint of resentment. She didn't want to stay in the tribe forever, becoming a machine for bearing children!

"If a girl presents flowers, must one accept?" Ling Feng cautiously asked, feeling it necessary to understand these customs.

Tasuo laughed loudly: "Who would refuse such a good thing? Of course, rejecting them would humiliate the girl completely, and those with strong self-esteem might even seek doom, as it once happened in our tribe. As warriors, we brave enemy foes on the battlefield, why fear the beauty in our tribe? So it's decided; the warrior receiving flowers cannot refuse the girl's good intentions!"

As the words fell, a burst of commotion arose from the bonfire side.

"It's starting. I'm curious which girl will first present flowers to the Divine Envoy?" Tasuo chuckled, his smile brimming with mischief.

Ling Feng laughed and said, "Perhaps not me; after all, there are many warriors in the tribe braver than me!"

"That's not necessarily true. Divine Envoy's demeanor on the battlefield compares to our tribe's bravest warriors!" Tasuo laughed and said.

Ling Feng shook his head, but the next moment, he realized he was wrong, as seven or eight pairs of fiery eyes were already fixed on him.

"What's happening? Don't come, don't come, don't come!" Ling Feng silently chanted in his heart. It wasn't prejudice against the girls here; he simply couldn't accept this custom.

But Ling Feng also understood that such customs were forced by the harsh survival conditions.

The girls whispered among themselves, and one stood, ready to walk toward Ling Feng. At this moment, a graceful figure appeared in front of everyone, standing before Ling Feng.

"Tama?" Ling Feng was dumbfounded.

"Divine Envoy, these are the flowers I, Tama, present to you. Please accept them!"

Ling Feng looked at Tama in astonishment and then glanced at Tasuo, suspecting it might be Tasuo's arrangement. But seeing Tasuo's expression, even more shocked than his, Ling Feng felt it was perhaps Tama's own decision.

Seeing Tama presenting flowers to Ling Feng caused an uproar in the entire tribe! Tama was the tribe's most beautiful Pearl, admired by many young men in the tribe, but she had never proactively presented flowers to any warrior until today...

"Divine Envoy, you should be aware of our tribe's customs, right?" Tama softly whispered in Ling Feng's ear, "I also know that the Divine Envoy must feel troubled by this, so let me, Tama, resolve this for you!"

Ling Feng understood Tama's intention. He gave Tama a deep look and then accepted the flowers from her: "Thank you, Miss Tama, for the flowers. I'll surely cherish them!"

Because Tama acted swiftly and given her popularity within the tribe, other girls abandoned the notion of presenting flowers to Ling Feng and turned their attention to other men.

Tama took a seat next to Ling Feng, and as the breeze blew, Ling Feng caught a faint fragrance coming from Tama.

Although the atmosphere was lively, Ling Feng did not see any joy on Tama's face.

"Are you worried?" Ling Feng asked quietly. "Repelling the Beast Tide, isn't it a matter worthy of happiness?"

Tama shook her head slightly: "Repel the first one, and then there's a second, and a third... What's there to be happy about?"

Ling Feng understood Tama's sentiment, but he could only sigh, realizing that given his current abilities, there wasn't much he could change.

The bonfire celebration quickly ended, and Tasuo came over, heavily patting Ling Feng on the shoulder: "Divine Envoy, my precious Pearl, Tama, presents flowers to a warrior for the first time... you must take good care of her!"

After speaking, Tasuo glanced at Tama and then turned and left.

Ling Feng rubbed his shoulder. Tasuo hadn't held back, and the force was quite strong!

"Looks like your father is angry!" Ling Feng said with a wry smile.

Tama stuck out her tongue: "Even if he's angry, there's nothing he can do; this is our tribe's tradition! Alright, Divine Envoy, let's go!"

"Wasn't it just to help me out?" Ling Feng was stunned for a moment.

Tama sighed: "Divine Envoy, haven't you heard the saying, act completely once you do! If we separate now, by tomorrow, the news of me being abandoned by the Divine Envoy will likely spread throughout the tribe!"

Looking at the envious eyes of those young men in the distance, Ling Feng felt a headache coming on. He knew it wouldn't be so simple!
