Huang Clan.
It was almost akin to a relatively prosperous small country.
Precisely because of this,
Gu Chaoyan became even more perplexed.
The Huang Clan wielded formidable power, standing as a dominant force in this region of small clans. In comparison, these smaller clans were significantly inferior.
It seemed entirely unnecessary for the Huang Clan to bother with the affairs of these clans from afar.
Then…
Gu Chaoyan formulated a hypothesis.
In a hushed tone, she inquired, “Could it be that the Huang Clan aims to lure all of us small clans to their mountain, subject our clansmen to such torment, eventually making them slaves of the Huang Clan and forcing them into servitude?”
This way, the Huang Clan would establish a structure akin to an ancient country.
A clear hierarchy would emerge.
Masters and servants would coexist.
If the Huang Clan indeed harbored such intentions,
Gu Chaoyan could begin to fathom their strategy.
“No,” the sorcerer dismissed Gu Chaoyan’s speculation.
Surprised, Gu Chaoyan gazed at the sorcerer.
How could he be so certain it wasn’t the case?
It seemed like a plausible explanation.
Initially, the sorcerer hesitated to broach the subject. However, given their purpose in investigating the Huang Clan, he felt compelled to reveal the truth.
“Do you know why I’m here?”
“It’s because sorcerers can sense that something has occurred in this place.”
“In this world, events that can trigger a sorcerer’s alarm are not as straightforward as they may seem.”
“The enslavement of small clans by powerful ones is a common occurrence in this world, and sorcerers usually cannot intervene.”
“For sorcerers to detect it, there must be a matter involving life, and it’s typically a substantial number of lives. It’s not just a conflict between two races. Sometimes, clansmen will lose their lives.”
“There’s an issue with the Huang Clan,” the sorcerer a.s.serted.
“The sorcerer is absolutely correct,” Adams affirmed. “Sorcerers are revered by our clansmen because they maintain the balance of this world.”
“The Huang Clan must have committed something even more egregious,” Adams continued, placing his trust in the sorcerer.
Gu Chaoyan refrained from objecting.
This sorcerer was vexing.
Yet, he was indeed fulfilling his role.
Perhaps, only sorcerers could rectify the issues involving the Huang Clan.
Since that was the case, she would simply observe.
“Where are you stationed?” A female voice suddenly interrupted. Adams’ arm was seized, and he instinctively tried to break free. Suddenly, more than ten members of the Radiant Clan surrounded him.
He furrowed his brows, refraining from making another move.
As a member of the Huang Clan now, he couldn’t act impulsively.
Before him stood a woman.
The beast skin she wore and the accessories adorning her indicated that her status in the Huang Clan was not ordinary.
Nothing untoward could happen to them.
He replied cautiously, “I’m stationed at the foot of the mountain.”
“The foot of the mountain?” The woman seemed to ponder for a moment. After a while, she suddenly remembered something. “Look at those tasks.”
With that, she flashed a seductive smile. “It’s not a great job. Would you like to join my team?”
Adams subconsciously shook his head.
“You don’t?”
“There’s no one in the Huang Clan who wouldn’t want to work for me.” The woman teased, seemingly unbothered by his refusal.
