Jiang Xuan eventually made Dong Kui put on a grass skirt and pushed her out, not allowing her to spend the night in his house.
Dong Kui was obviously disappointed by this, but there was nothing she could do. She could only hold a torch and return to her own dwelling.
Jiang Xuan closed the door, his heart still pounding wildly, his head filled with a jumble of thoughts.
The reason he rejected Dong Kui was not that he was noble, but because he didn’t want to act like a beast, sleeping with others indiscriminately.
The soul from the future, the education he had received, made it impossible for him to do such things.
One must know, under such primitive conditions, once you sleep together, it’s truly possible to end up having a child.
Impulsiveness is a demon, especially for someone like Jiang Xuan, who has a sense of responsibility and cannot act impulsively.
At the very least, one should find someone they like, nurture some feelings, and then take the next step, right?
Furthermore, this body of his was only fourteen years old, and in his mind, this age is still a child!
No matter how others handle it, he definitely did not want to have children so young, it was too terrifying.
The next day, Jiang Xuan saw Dong Kui again. The tribe was only so big, you run into each other all the time.
Jiang Xuan felt a bit awkward, while Dong Kui was okay, just a little disappointed.
But she didn’t give up, thinking it was just because she was too starved at the Mosquito Tribe, had become thin, and didn’t look good.
Once she gained a bit of weight, looked better, Jiang Xuan surely wouldn’t reject her again.
In the aesthetic values of the tribe, a strong, more robust woman is the most beautiful.
Jiang Xuan didn’t know what she thought, to avoid awkwardness and also to gather more food, he led Hunting Team One into the mountains.
Although the Vine Tribe had started planting and breeding, even obtaining some good types of grains, it had only been a short time, and farming and livestock breeding were insufficient to meet the food needs of the tribe.
Hunting and gathering remained important sources of food.
As the most powerful warrior of the tribe, Jiang Xuan often led the Hunting Team into the mountains, seeking large prey to increase the tribe’s meat supply.
Today, Jiang Xuan had set his sights on a Giant Horned Beast.
The Giant Horned Beast is a large herbivorous wild beast, but ordinary predators generally dare not easily target it as prey.
Because the body of the Giant Horned Beast was too large, with an adult weighing over five thousand pounds.
It had thick skin and tough flesh, and a huge horn atop its head. If one were carelessly hit by the horn, even if not killed, they would surely be seriously injured.
When Jiang Xuan was not around, the hunting teams from the Vine Tribe dare not target such prey because they couldn’t handle it.
But Jiang Xuan was different. He was now a Four-Color Warrior, theoretically capable of hunting a giant-toothed tiger alone!
At this moment, a Giant Horned Beast was leisurely walking through a mountain forest, occasionally finding some tender leaves or wild grass to eat.
The Giant Horned Beast looked somewhat like a tapir, but with a huge horn atop its head, occupying almost a third of its head, and had a long tail, looking very strange.
In the woods not far from the Giant Horned Beast, Gou Teng whispered to Jiang Xuan, "Leader, shall we make a move?"
Facing such a large creature, ordinary traps were useless; even digging a pitfall would need to be very large, time-consuming, and labor-intensive.
All the Hunting Team warriors could rely on was sheer numbers, along with the leader’s strength.
Jiang Xuan looked around and said, "Set up several tripping ropes in front of it, choose the strongest ropes, have five people pull one rope together. I’ll lure it over."
"Also, prepare the largest Vine Net, if there’s a chance, trap the Giant Horned Beast with it."
Gou Teng waved his hand, led thirty-five warriors from Hunting Team One, quietly circled to the woods in front of the Giant Horned Beast, and began setting up the tripping ropes using the thickest bark ropes they had.
"Tie them tightly, the Giant Horned Beast is strong, later on, five people should pull one rope, don’t be careless."
Gou Teng instructed the warriors to tie one end of the rope to a tree and took a few of the strongest warriors to the location of the last trip wire, where they laid out a large Vine Net.
This kind of Vine Net was woven from tough vines, it had high strength, capable of ensnaring most prey.
Once the prey was entangled in the Vine Net, they couldn’t run anymore.
Once everything was ready, a warrior quickly ran to Jiang Xuan to inform him that everything was set.
"Alright, let’s get ready to move."
Jiang Xuan licked his dry lips, gripped the Bone Spear, and quickly charged towards the Giant Horned Beast.
The Giant Horned Beast, hearing the commotion, immediately stopped feeding and looked at Jiang Xuan warily.
To the Giant Horned Beast, Jiang Xuan wasn’t large, but instinctively, it sensed a dangerous aura from Jiang Xuan.
It turned its body, lowered its head, and aimed the gigantic horn at Jiang Xuan, while letting out a low growl, its massive body ready to charge.
Jiang Xuan did not directly confront it, instead, he pulled out a short spear from his back mid-run and suddenly hurled it towards the Giant Horned Beast.
The short spear, propelled with great force, flew in a parabola towards the shoulder of the Giant Horned Beast with the sound of the air being cut.
The Giant Horned Beast was so large, although strong, it was not very agile, and the short spear embedded in its shoulder, blood flowing.
Enraged, the Giant Horned Beast, with its head low, charged at Jiang Xuan, attempting to gore him with the massive horn.
Once the Giant Horned Beast started running, its speed was not slow, and the impact was incredibly frightening.
But Jiang Xuan was faster.
Jiang Xuan quickly changed direction, moved to the side of the Giant Horned Beast, and threw another short spear.
This short spear again pierced the Giant Horned Beast, making it even more furious.
Due to its thick skin and massive size, the two short spears didn’t inflict critical wounds, and it didn’t have the thought of escaping.
"Thump, thump, thump..."
The Giant Horned Beast continued chasing Jiang Xuan, who kept leading it in circles, exhausting its energy, occasionally throwing a short spear for extra damage.
When four or five short spears stuck out of the Giant Horned Beast, Jiang Xuan was out of short spears, and its energy was also gradually diminishing from running and its wounds.
Jiang Xuan led the Giant Horned Beast into the forest where the hunting team ambushed.
When the Giant Horned Beast hesitated, Jiang Xuan turned back towards it, taunting it to keep its anger and continue the chase.
Finally, Jiang Xuan crossed the first trip rope, the Giant Horned Beast closely following.
Once the Giant Horned Beast approached the trip rope, a warrior suddenly stood up, shouting, "Pull!"
The thick rope lying on the ground was suddenly pulled up by five warriors, catching the Giant Horned Beast off guard and tripping its front hooves.
The Giant Horned Beast heavily fell to the ground, breaking the short spears on its body.
Yet, the Giant Horned Beast quickly got up again with speed, and instead of continuing forward, it turned around to run backward.
No one expected the Giant Horned Beast to turn and flee, Jiang Xuan was momentarily stunned, then immediately turned to give chase.
Gou Teng also disregarded the already laid-out Vine Net, immediately leading the warriors to continue chasing the Giant Horned Beast with Jiang Xuan.
Jiang Xuan ran fast, maintaining steady speed.
The Giant Horned Beast ran swiftly too, sensing the threat of death and trying to escape for its life.
However, the endurance of the Giant Horned Beast was still not as good as Jiang Xuan’s. After running a distance, its speed gradually decreased, panting heavily through its nostrils.
Seizing the opportunity, Jiang Xuan ran to the side of the Giant Horned Beast and fiercely stabbed his thick Bone Spear into its neck!
The Giant Horned Beast let out a wail, tried to pick up speed, but it was severely exhausted.
When the Giant Horned Beast slowed down again, Jiang Xuan abandoned the Bone Spear and fiercely punched the head of the Giant Horned Beast.
The Giant Horned Beast was hit with tremendous force, its head knocked askew, the massive body crashing to the ground.
Jiang Xuan ran over, delivering heavy punches to its head continuously.
Under his terrifying strength as a Four-Color Warrior, the Giant Horned Beast let out a final wail, its eyes losing light gradually.
When Gou Teng and others arrived, the Giant Horned Beast was already lifeless.
"The leader is so strong!"
The warriors of the Hunting Team looked at Jiang Xuan with fervor, highly admiring the leader’s formidable personal strength.
Jiang Xuan, gasping heavily, said, "Tie it up and carry it back, this Giant Horned Beast should feed everyone for some time."
Gou Teng and others quickly ran back to fetch ropes and Vine Nets, and tied up the massive Giant Horned Beast, taking turns with over thirty warriors to carry it back to the tribe.
