Chapter 2723 Don't you want to eat?
"Don't worry, the Fire Spirit Tribe has been brought under control and won't cause any trouble."
In response to the burly man's question, the old man grinned and replied.
"No, is this what I meant? Why are you siding with the Yanwu tribe?"
The burly man's face darkened, and he looked suspicious.
Weren't you two here because of the Fire Spirit Tribe's request for help? How come you're involved with the Flame Warrior Tribe now?
Which side are you on? The Fire Spirit Tribe is on our side.
They looked at the old man and the young man with complicated and strange expressions. That's not what they said before.
The Fire Spirit Tribe has been brought under control? That doesn't make sense. Why would you control the Fire Spirit Tribe?
This whole thing was strange, and even the burly man was completely baffled.
The old man did not explain on the spot, but instead smiled and said...
"That's a long story, let's go inside and talk."
Seeing this, the burly man did not refuse and, led by the old man, went directly into the Fire Spirit Tribe.
Only after entering the Fire Spirit Tribe did the burly man realize that the entire Fire Spirit Tribe had long been controlled by the Flame Warrior Tribe.
Many members of the Fire Spirit tribe were imprisoned.
"this………."
"Don't worry, the people of the Fire Spirit Tribe have all had their cultivation sealed, so they won't cause any trouble."
The old man explained with a smile, while the burly man listened with a furrowed brow. "That's exactly what I was asking about."
I'm asking you how you got into this mess. Aren't we on the Fire Spirit Tribe's side?
My heart was filled with suspicion. If the old man hadn't been a tribal elder, not an ordinary member, he wouldn't have betrayed the tribe.
Otherwise, the strong man would probably have thought he had already betrayed them.
Filled with doubt, he followed the old man until the burly man and his group sat down at the table.
To welcome them, Ye Changqing naturally prepared a table full of delicious food.
Dozens of people sat at five tables, each laden with delicious food, the aroma of which was irresistible.
Although it smelled delicious, the burly man still asked a question with suspicion.
"This is?"
I don't know what this is supposed to do.
Faced with the burly man's question, the old man smiled and said...
"No rush, let's eat and chat."
As he spoke, the old man couldn't wait to pick up a piece of food with his chopsticks and start eating.
Seeing the old man eating with relish, the burly man also took a bite with a strange expression.
Soon, only the sound of people eating their fill remained at the table.
The old man, of course, refused to give up his food; he had been waiting for this for several days.
Although the food I cook every day tastes just as good as it does at a regular banquet, it's naturally better to have a more elaborate meal.
Given this opportunity, how could we possibly waste it?
Compared to the old man, the burly man was obviously inexperienced at first, but after taking a bite, he quickly got into the swing of things.
This delicious food completely won him over with just one bite.
As for the others, they couldn't escape it either.
A large table of food was devoured by everyone in no time.
After they had eaten and wiped everything clean, the old man finally had time to get down to business.
As members of the same tribe, the old man didn't hide anything and recounted everything that had happened after he and his grandson arrived in the Fire Spirit Tribe.
After listening attentively, the burly man's face showed a strange expression.
Something doesn't feel right here.
He looked at the old man with a complicated expression.
"Are you saying this was entirely the Fire Spirit Tribe's responsibility?"
"Of course! Ye is such a good person, and the Fire Spirit Tribe still wanted to kill him. Isn't that their own problem?"
"But...the Fire Spirit Tribe is, after all, our subordinate tribe..."
The burly man wanted to say that the Fire Spirit Tribe was, after all, an affiliated tribe of their Iron Peak Tribe.
Isn't it a bit inappropriate to say these things so openly?
However, the old man didn't take it seriously.
"What's the big deal? Even if they're a subordinate tribe, they still have to be reasonable. Oh, and there's one more thing..."
Then, the old man told the burly man about releasing the human cultivators.
However, the burly man's reaction to this was noticeably stronger.
"Are you crazy? Those human cultivators were imprisoned on the orders of the clan leader, and you actually want to release them?"
"That's true, but we have no enmity with those humans..."
The old man directly quoted Ye Changqing's words and persuaded the burly man.
However, the burly man was not convinced.
There's really no grudge between them, but the problem is...
"This is not something you or I can decide. It's the clan chief's decision, so don't interfere."
Whether to release them or not is a matter for the clan leader to consider.
Although both of them were elders of the Tiefeng tribe, they still couldn't make the decision on this matter.
The old man naturally understood this, but he had a trump card.
Upon hearing the burly man's words, the old man calmly replied.
"I know what you mean, but don't you want to eat such delicious food again?"
As he spoke, he glanced meaningfully at the empty plate on the table.
The plate was licked clean by everyone.
This shows just how tempting this table of delicious food is.
As expected, the burly man fell silent upon hearing this.
The old man also told him the reason for this delicious meal.
It was known that this was done by a human cultivator named Ye Changqing.
Ye Changqing can cook for everyone, three meals a day, and his request is very simple: release his companions.
With a reasonable argument and the promise of delicious food as a bargaining chip, the burly man pondered for a moment before speaking.
"Well... let's make a plan."
"Haha, that's excellent."
The old man laughed heartily in response.
They don't have the authority to make the decision, but they can offer their opinions. With Ye Changqing's culinary skills, persuading the clan leader shouldn't be too difficult.
There's no real loss either way.
Afterwards, the burly man also wanted to get to know Ye Changqing, and the old man naturally did not refuse.
After inviting Ye Changqing over and exchanging a few pleasantries, the burly man spoke.
“It’s not impossible for you to rescue your companions, but you will definitely have to come with us to the Iron Peak Tribe and meet the chieftain in person.”
There's definitely no problem with them speaking up for Ye Changqing.
For the sake of this hot meal, as long as it doesn't harm the interests of the tribe, saying a few good words on their behalf is perfectly acceptable.
But that wasn't enough. Ye Changqing also needed to showcase his culinary skills in order to convince the clan leader and other elders.
Of course, another reason was that the old man and the strong man wanted to have another feast.
Once they arrive at the Tiefeng tribe, Ye Changqing will surely host a banquet, and the two of them can benefit from it.
But before Ye Changqing could reply, the old clan leader who had come with them immediately refused.
"No, Ye boy can't go. If he really goes, what if your Iron Peak Tribe just detains him? I don't agree."
The old clan chief was somewhat agitated. "What a joke! These are people from my Yanwu tribe!"
