While they had all sought refuge under the tree, it was evident that everyone from the Five Elements Clan was gripped by fear. Their apprehension was unmistakable, as they were genuinely concerned about the potential wrath of the heavens.

Nonetheless, their unease proved to be short-lived.

The rain ceased promptly, without any mishaps. No one got drenched; they had all escaped the downpour unscathed.

To a certain extent, the clansmen began to see merit in the Tribe Chief’s decision.

The man who had earlier spoken up in favor of the Tribe Chief felt a sense of relief.

When he had spoken up, it had been somewhat of a gamble. However, he hadn’t antic.i.p.ated that the outcome would be so favorable.

Had the Tribe Chief genuinely undergone a transformation due to the Moco Clan’s incident? Had she truly taken on the mantle of responsibility as Tribe Chief?

After the rain, it was time to resume packing.

The clansmen diligently attended to their belongings.

Gu Chaoyan paused by the side of the man, opting to engage in a discussion with him.

Why had she chosen him?

Firstly, he possessed considerable prestige within the clan.

Secondly, his att.i.tude appeared to have s.h.i.+fted in response to the herbs, increasing the likelihood of his agreement. Furthermore, his capacity to convince his clansmen was considerable.

Gary gazed at the Tribe Chief before him.

The Tribe Chief was good-looking.

Her temper had always been good in the clan.

However…

In the past, everything had been harmonious, and the clan had encountered no troubles.

However, as time pa.s.sed, the Tribe Chief also reached the age when a woman could consider marriage. She didn’t set her sights on a young and robust member of the Five Elements Clan, but rather on the Tribe Chief of the Thunder Fire Clan.

Subsequently, she gradually became embroiled in various misdeeds.

Gary held no grievances.

His sole wish was for the Tribe Chief to realize her mistakes and spare herself further harm.

“Gary, our clan’s resources are currently insufficient. While the rain is tolerable, a storm could bring catastrophe. I believe the skies are clearing, so we should attempt to construct some wooden houses. What are your thoughts on this?” Gu Chaoyan proposed.

Gary hadn’t antic.i.p.ated the Tribe Chief would approach him with such a suggestion.

Wooden houses?

In their region, people primarily resided in tents or caves.

The most sought-after spots within the caves were those sheltered from wind and rain. Yet a clan like theirs, spanning 500 meters, lacked the privilege to occupy these prime locations. The caves were predominantly claimed by more powerful clans.

“Why?” Gary inquired with curiosity.

Gu Chaoyan had recently come across some machetes, which held potential utility.

She was relieved that despite the scarcity of material resources, there were still machetes and similar items at her disposal. Otherwise, she might have been at a loss.

The machete, crafted from a piece of iron, appeared quite serviceable. She considered the possibility of refining some new blades in the future. For now, the available tools would suffice.

Since Gary had inquired, it signified a good likelihood of success for the proposal. Thus, Gu Chaoyan proceeded to discuss the matter in greater detail.

Her initial plan had involved constructing the houses with wood, but upon further reflection, she deemed this choice unsuitable and opted to use bamboo instead.

In meticulous detail, she elucidated the process of cutting the bamboo into segments and delineated the structure’s design.

She also discussed the roofing materials.

Gary’s eyes sparkled with interest as he absorbed the information.

The houses described by the Tribe Chief didn’t seem overly complex to construct. If they could be built…
