Chapter 825: 815 I was a Goddess in Ancient Times (22) First Update

Yu’s smile remained, but her gaze toward the group of people became somewhat vigilant.

"Sorry, I was just asking casually." Seeing Yu react this way, Ye Mi immediately realized the tone of her words was problematic and promptly stopped speaking.

Yu’s smile persisted, but her tone had cooled considerably, "It’s fine."

Ye Ku and the priests of the Canglan Tribe didn’t understand why Ye Mi suddenly asked that question and immediately spoke with humility to Yu, "We are from the Canglan Tribe. I am the tribal chief Ye Ku, and we mean no harm."

Hearing Ye Ku’s words, Yu took another look at him.

Suddenly, she remembered that Shaohua had previously been abandoned by her own tribe due to serious injuries.

However, Shaohua had never disclosed the name of her tribe.

It’s just...

This person’s last name is Ye, Yu thought deeply as she glanced at Ye Mi.

They didn’t have to wait long outside before Ge Tian and Ge Bing came out.

Another tribe went in afterward, and only after emerging with several weapons that glinted with a silvery light was it Yu’s turn to enter.

"Lord Yun," Yu approached Chu Yun after seeing the guests seated, speaking in a low voice, "Those people are from the Canglan Tribe, with the surname Ye. They directly asked me about the High Priest, could they be the High Priest’s kinfolk?"

Yu was now very wary of Ye Ku and his group.

Hearing Yu’s words, Chu Yun paused, looked over at the group, and his eyes narrowed slightly, "I understand."

He put down a substance similar to millet that he had just bartered for and walked over to Ye Ku and his group, "What have you come to exchange?"

Ye Mi and Ye Ku both looked in Shaohua’s direction, their expressions somewhat dazed.

It wasn’t until they heard Chu Yun’s voice that they snapped back to reality, their gazes somewhat bewildered, "Ah... this, this!"

Upon hearing Chu Yun’s question, Ye Ku signaled to a priest beside him with his eyes. The priest caught the hint, gritted his teeth, and then carefully took out something wrapped in cloth from his bosom.

He unveiled the cloth to reveal some sheets of paper within, which were very delicate to the touch.

Chu Yun was already aware that each tribe had its own technological developments in this era, including paper-making artisans.

The Icefield Tribe had taken in many tribes skilled in paper-making, although the paper they produced was very rough, and the ink would blur if used on it.

In the absence of bleaching agents and bonding agents, the civilization of paper was still gradually developing.

Shaohua had found some substitutes, and thus the paper produced by the Icefield exceeded the quality of this era.

If Chu Yun had seen the paper Ye Ku held before Shaohua managed to create her paper, he would have been surprised, but now Shaohua had already succeeded in her research.

In the morning, there was some distance between Shaohua and them, plus Ye Ku had not paid much attention to Shaohua before, so he truly did not recognize her.

But now, Shaohua was just a few steps away.

Although the appearance of the person before him didn’t match the timid and weak image he remembered, the face from his memory became clearer, gradually overlapping with the face in front of him...

"We only want some weapons capable of resisting the Wolf Tribe," Ye Ku suddenly snapped back to attention, "I assure you that no other tribe has this paper, and only our Canglan Tribe can manufacture it."

The Canglan Tribe’s ability to produce paper was limited to the priests endowed with Priest Power, which is why anyone with the Power of Sacrifice was highly valued as the future of the tribe.

However, in recent years, the number of people possessing the Power of Sacrifice had dwindled, and their paper had become exceedingly rare, making life increasingly difficult for the tribe.

Ye Ku also brought a gambler’s mentality, knowing that their technology was coveted by the larger tribes.

If it weren’t for Ye Mi, if it weren’t for seeing Shaohua, Ye Ku would never dare to reveal this paper in an unfamiliar tribe, fearing they would be as ruthless as the Wolf Tribe, exterminating all to acquire the secret of their paper-making.

Chu Yun’s expression remained unchanged as he reached out and, to the astonishment of Ye Ku and the others, returned the paper, "Don’t you have anything else?"

Seeing Chu Yun’s gesture, Ye Mi and Ye Ku’s group were somewhat puzzled.

Yu directly opened the package brought by Hui and pulled out a sheet of paper to give to Ye Ku.

When Ye Ku and the others touched it, their expressions changed.

The paper Yu held was of even thickness and extremely delicate; it was as white as snow, resembling ivory, the likes of which they had never seen before.

"This is the paper from our tribe," Yu stepped forward to negotiate, smiling slightly, "As you can see, we do not need it. Do you have anything else to offer?"

Ye Mi’s face turned pale as he shook his head.

They never imagined there would be another tribe whose paper surpassed their own!

"Our High Priest likes some peculiar little plants. If you have any, bring them over to exchange," Yu suggested, pointing to a heap of various plants, "Try to find as many as possible, if there is something our High Priest needs, one plant can be exchanged for one sword."

After speaking, Yu just smiled and looked at them, "Of course, if you’re in trouble, you’re welcome to join our tribe at any time."

Ye Mi and Ye Ku’s group were severely demoralized. They had originally intended to inquire about Shaohua’s origins, but they no longer felt like asking.

They had thought their paper, a unique talent of the Canglan Tribe, was something only they could perfect, but now...

In comparison to the Icefield Tribe, their own work was insignificant.

Despondently, they waited at the agreed spot; the middle-aged man who arrived late told them that Ge Bing had better-quality paper in hand and didn’t need the Canglan Tribe’s paper.

Upon hearing this, the Canglan Tribe’s group finally showed a drastic change in expression, but they had realized it as soon as they left the Icefield.

Why would Ge Bing care for their paper when the Icefield Tribe had such fine quality?

It was at this moment that they finally learned the full details about the Icefield Tribe, a tribe already on par with a First-class city.

That evening, while the Wolf Tribe sent a large number of people to ravage the entire Icefield, a portion of the Canglan Tribe that had managed to escape decided to join the Icefield.
