So…
Instead, he did not want to leave.
Remaining in this clan seemed like a favorable option.
The Five Elements Clan possessed numerous advanced aspects, and by exploring the clan, the sorcerer could potentially provide valuable insights to other clans, further enhancing their quality of life.
“I’ve spent the past few days cooped up in my room, and it’s been quite dull,” the sorcerer remarked. “I came out for a walk and to chat with people, just to get a sense of the tribe’s situation. The witches haven’t a.s.signed me any tasks this year, so I’m flexible with my time. I might need to remain in the Five Elements Clan for a few more days. You don’t mind, Tribe Chief, do you?”
He was well aware that she minded.
However, what difference would it make if she did?
The clan members would not permit her to object, and she wasn’t foolish enough to disrespect a sorcerer of his standing.
She knew his high regard in the hearts of the clan members.
Gu Chaoyan’s cheerful expression instantly vanished. She clenched her teeth and replied, “Of course, I don’t mind!”
“You can do as you please.”
The sorcerer chuckled heartily.
He accompanied the clan members to partake in a meal.
Gu Chaoyan was seething with frustration. She had no desire to be in the sorcerer’s presence and quickly departed.
Gary, somewhat perplexed, followed her. He didn’t dare to speculate, but he had a hunch that her feelings were genuine. “Tribe Chief, do you not like the sorcerer and have reservations about him?”
“Why do you always appear displeased in front of sorcerers?”
“Tribe Chief, sorcerers protect us all. You can’t harbor such sentiments. Being disrespectful to the G.o.ds isn’t advisable.”
“It’s not just us who will suffer; you will as well,” Gary advised.
Gu Chaoyan was on the verge of exasperation. If it were anyone else, she could freely express her dissatisfaction, but in the presence of this sorcerer…
These people were deeply superst.i.tious about him, and she couldn’t do anything to challenge that.
Her vexation knew no bounds.
She truly despised the existence of this sorcerer.
“Tribe Chief, ponder what Gary has shared with you. I’ll go attend to my duties now,” Gary said with a concerned look directed at Gu Chaoyan.
He couldn’t fathom why she harbored such a dislike for sorcerers.
Gu Chaoyan’s headache persisted.
She thought it best to visit Aina to lighten her mood.
However, a figure in white obstructed her path.
“You don’t like me?” the sorcerer inquired.
“And not because I know your secret.”
“So what’s the reason?”
“I wasn’t initially curious, but your reaction piqued my curiosity.”
“If you tell me, I might consider departing early when I learn the situation,” the sorcerer mentioned casually.
“Do I need a reason to dislike someone?” Gu Chaoyan inquired with a puzzled expression.
“Then you simply don’t like me. It’s unrelated to anything else.” The sorcerer appeared equally baffled. “This is the first time I’ve been disliked by you humans. It’s a peculiar feeling, so I may need to linger in your clan for a few more days.”
“Tribe Chief, you don’t mind, do you?” the sorcerer inquired with a smile.
Gu Chaoyan could discern that he wasn’t genuinely smiling; it was merely an expression.
“Are all sorcerers so thick-skinned?”
“No.”
“Yes?”
