Chapter 142 You Should Know How to Be Grateful
"That's what you say, but shouldn't you still do what needs to be done? Look at how much progress you've made, isn't that because of this?"
Xue Lan spoke with great conviction, after all, there must be some effect involved, and it cannot be completely denied.
Xia Gu could only nod after hearing this, because what Xue Lan said made perfect sense and there was no way to refute it.
"Alright, it's enough that you know I've made progress. Let's not talk about anything else. I wonder how Xuanli is doing with the news."
Xuan Li returned from the other tribes in the evening, looking completely exhausted.
Xia Gu quickly stepped forward and looked at Xuan Li with a teasing look, not expecting him to be so tired.
"Did you visit a lot of tribes today? You look completely exhausted."
Xia Gu shook her head helplessly. Xuan Li was clearly exhausted.
Upon hearing this, Xuan Li sighed helplessly; it was indeed the case.
“I have visited many tribes, but many tribes know that you are really capable and they support you very much.”
"I don't think this matter needs much explanation. After all, once those snobs know your strength, they will naturally stop spreading rumors about you."
Xuan Li breathed a sigh of relief. Anyway, all these people would come to watch the game, and that was enough.
As for the rest, there's no need to think about it too much, because it's not really necessary.
Xia Gu naturally kept praising Xuan Li, after all, Xuan Li had done so much for her and deserved to be praised.
As expected, after receiving the praise, Xuan Li became like a little puppy, clinging to Xia Gu's side and unwilling to leave.
On the day of the competition, both sides agreed to hold it in an open area.
Dressed in light armor and wielding a sharp blade, Xia Gu faced a powerful opponent with unwavering eyes and no fear.
Dongwu was skilled at manipulating elemental power. At the start of the battle, he began chanting incantations and unleashed a powerful fire attack.
The raging flames surged towards Xia Gu like a tidal wave, but Xia Gu, with her agile movements, dodged left and right, skillfully avoiding them.
She used her speed advantage to quickly close the distance to her opponent and launch a close-range attack.
During the battle, Xia Gu skillfully used her newly acquired power to find openings in the gaps between the flames and gradually suppressed Dong Wu.
Dongwu is now clearly a bit flustered, and even his incantations are not as fluent.
However, Xia Gu remained very composed. She stopped what she was doing and stood aside watching Dong Wu.
"It seems like the results are already starting to show. I wonder how much longer you'll persist."
Xia Gu raised an eyebrow, facing Dong Wu in a joking manner.
After all, the opportunity has already been given; whether or not Eastern Ukraine wants it is another matter.
Dongwu pursed his lips, never expecting that Xia Gu was actually as powerful as the rumors suggested.
At first, he thought these were all just boasts, mere marketing tactics, and not real.
But now it seems I was wrong, but Dongwu will never bow down to a female.
"What result? Is it the result that you lost? If you're willing to admit defeat, I have nothing to say. But until the very last moment, I will never give up."
Dongwu looked at Xia Gu with a determined gaze, and the others were quite impressed with him.
After all, given the vast disparity in strength, the willingness to continue the fight is truly admirable.
But for Xia Gu, this was just stalling for time. Whether she lost sooner or later, she would lose anyway, so she didn't know what she was trying to prove.
"If you're willing to keep showing off these little tricks in front of me, I don't mind. It's all up to you."
For Xia Gu, it's just a pastime; if you take it too seriously, it loses its charm.
It would be better to give them more chances; that way, things might at least be a little better.
As expected, after hearing what Xia Gu said, Dong Wu felt even more that Xia Gu was mocking him, and naturally felt very uncomfortable.
He used all his strength and gathered all his energy, all to defeat Xia Gu.
After a fierce struggle, Xia Gu seized the opportunity during the pause in Dong Wu's incantation, took a step forward, and pressed the sharp blade in her hand against her opponent's throat.
"Well, I've got your Achilles' heel now, you should be able to admit defeat, right?"
In that instant, Dongwu didn't dare to move at all, trying to escape from Xia Gu's grasp, but there was nothing he could do.
Because Xia Gu was incredibly strong, and the fireball in her hand was faintly emanating from it.
It looks extremely dangerous; if that fireball were to be launched, he would be injured by both the fireball and the lightning.
Eastern Ukraine was not entirely confident about this matter, so it dared not act recklessly.
"Why aren't you saying anything? Aren't you thinking about trending on social media? I didn't give you this opportunity. If you don't cherish it, and you end up disabled, you can't blame me."
Xia Gu blinked her big eyes. Since the choice was already laid out before her, it was just a matter of seeing what Dong Wu Ai would do.
"You might as well just kill me. I have no face left here anyway, so it would be faster for you to kill me."
Upon hearing this, Xia Gu immediately released her grip and stopped choking her neck, feeling that the situation had gone too far.
"Then you've misunderstood me. I just hope your tribe can submit to me, at least not pose any threat to my establishment of a matrilineal tribe, and fully support me."
“I don’t want anyone’s life, because it’s really meaningless to me. Killing is something that can be done anytime, but it’s a different story if you want to completely conquer someone.”
Xia Gu spoke about this matter earnestly, and everyone else present was also moved by it.
It seems that Xia Gu didn't expect to let Dong Wu go, and even said such things. This is clearly a different outcome.
“You can see just how much energy I have, it’s definitely more powerful than any of the males here, so why don’t you choose to support me? After all, you were all born from females.”
"You should know how to be grateful, to be grateful to the females around you. This is my original intention in establishing a matriarchal society, and I hope you can understand it."
Xia Gu looked around at the onlookers, most of whom were leaders of their respective tribes.
