At this point, let alone one condition, even several or a dozen, Chief Gao might be willing to agree.

However, Sang Ying wasn't an unreasonable person; once she agreed on a condition, she naturally wouldn't bring up any more.

Under the watchful eyes of several pairs of eyes inside the tent, Sang Ying said, "I can give you the salt, but you must exchange it for resources from your tribe."

Now that the saltstone belongs to them, Chief He can't bring himself to deny them a way out, but no one would be willing to give it back for nothing.

Exchanging resources is practically the best solution.

After Sang Ying finished speaking, both Clan Chief He and Yue Tianze showed satisfied expressions. As for Gao, although his expression was still unpleasant, his brows had relaxed considerably.

He seemed somewhat conflicted. "But our Giant Ape Tribe isn't as good as you think; we're quite lacking in supplies..."

"Since you're not genuinely interested in the salt, there's no need for us to continue. Please leave." Sang Ying interrupted Gao, making it clear she refused to communicate further.

Chief Gao was now frightened. Of course, he refused to leave and remained seated in his chair. "No, no! That's not what I meant. I just wanted to ask you to be gentle when you take things from me, not to be too harsh."

"Don't worry about that," Yue Tianze replied this time. "We Minglu Beastmen are all upright and kind; we would never ask you for anything more than the value of these salt stones!"

Chief Gao: Hesitant to speak, yet still wanting to speak... Is this what I'm talking about? I just wanted to ask if you could give me a lower price!

As for what they wanted, Sang Ying and Yue Tianze didn't concern themselves with that, leaving it all to the clan chief He to worry about.

After seeing off Clan Chief Gao, Clan Chief He also breathed a slight sigh of relief.

He had been worried that taking the Giant Ape Tribe's salt might cause trouble for them. Now it seemed that not only would there be no trouble, but he could also make a fortune from it!

He was overjoyed; he had never been so grateful that he had prayed to Yue Tianze to bring Sang Ying. This Human Race was simply their tribe's savior!

But the matter is far from over. Although the matter of the Giant Ape Tribe has been basically settled, and the Calling Deer Tribe has achieved their initial expectation of becoming the third largest tribe, the situation is far from over.

However, the performance of the Minglu Beastmen was too outstanding. Even though they were quickly defeated in the competition with the Flame Tiger Tribe, it was clear to all the Beastmen that the Minglu Beastmen had not gone all out.

So even though Flame Tiger won, he still felt very frustrated.

If such progress were made by the White Lion Tribe, blessed by the Beast God, or the Flame Tiger Tribe, which has always been known for its strength, it would not have caused such a stir.

However, it was precisely the weak Calling Deer Tribe that saw its fighting strength improve, which gave rise to different thoughts among the other tribes.

After the White Lion Tribe and the Flame Tiger Tribe finished their White Lion battles, the Beastmen from these two tribes started running to the Calling Deer Tribe camp even more frequently.

Without exception, they all wanted to find out why the Calling Deer Tribe had suddenly become so powerful. The White Lion Tribe, in particular, was very wealthy and offered to buy information with salt.

This grand gesture stunned Chief He; he never dreamed he would be pursued and questioned by the White Lion Tribe.

However, this cultivation method was taught to them by Sang Ying. Chief He knew how capable Sang Ying was. Even though the White Lion Tribe offered very generous conditions, he still gritted his teeth and did not agree. He only said that he had to go back and discuss it with his tribe first.

As soon as he returned to the camp, he told Sang Ying about it. Sang Ying herself didn't seem to care, but instead asked Chief He, "If you want to use this method to exchange for something good, I won't refuse. Anyway, I've taught you, and it's up to you what you do with it."

"However, the reason you were able to defeat the Giant Ape Tribe this time was because you cultivated this Cultivation Method. If you hand it over, and all the other Beastmen cultivate it, will you be able to defeat the Giant Ape Tribe again next time and obtain enough salt?"

This is a very real problem; it depends on whether the Calling Deer Tribe wants long-term benefits or immediate gains.

Upon hearing this, Chief He's initially delighted expression faltered.

"What should we do? Should we refuse? But wouldn't that offend the White Lion Tribe?" Chief He asked, his face full of dilemma.

Yue Tianze remained unfazed. "What's there to worry about? Although you Beastmen differ in size, you are equal in the path of cultivation. You have already mastered the cultivation method before them, and you also have Sang Ying to guide you. Even if this cultivation method were to be revealed, other tribes, without Sang Ying's help, certainly wouldn't be able to cultivate as quickly as you."

"With this advantage, in just a few months, your tribe's Beastmen will be able to pull ahead of the other tribes. After six months, not only will you be able to secure third place, but you'll even be able to compete for first place."

It must be said that although Yue Tianze's words were not entirely correct, Sang Ying generally agreed with them.

"A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime." If the Calling Deer Tribe really holds onto this cultivation method and refuses to give it up, the White Lion Tribe and Flame Tiger Tribe might unite and annex them before they even fully mature.

After discussion, the matter was quickly resolved.

Upon learning of this unusual cultivation method, the White Lion and the Flame Tiger showed great interest. They not only gave the Calling Deer Tribe some salt stones but also planned to exchange other resources with Chief He for the Cultivation Method.

The Giant Ape Tribe naturally didn't miss this opportunity, and Chief Gao visited the Calling Deer Tribe's camp once again before leaving.

This time he promised even more resources, so much so that Chief He revealed a jealous look—didn't he say before that his tribe had few resources and asked me to go easy on him?!

But since we've already given them to the other two tribes, one more Giant Ape Tribe won't make a difference.

The Calling Deer Tribe's sensible behavior pleased the other three tribes, especially as the Salt Scramble about to end and all the Beastmen were about to leave.

The White Lion Tribe took the initiative to approach them and invited Sang Ying and Yue Tianze to attend their tribe's young master's engagement ceremony, which was to take place soon.

"Speaking of which, our young master's fiancé is also Human Race. It's said that our young master rescued him not long ago, and he only suddenly woke up these past two days, so as soon as the young master heard the news, he rushed to see him," said the white lion Beastmen who had personally delivered the invitation.

Hearing this, he keenly sensed something. "What did the person your young master saved look like?"

"I don't know exactly what he looks like, but I heard he has very long black hair and what's more, he seems to have two horns on his head? Because of that, we initially thought he was Beastmen, but after the shaman came and treated him, we were told he wasn't Beastmen after all..."

The white lion Beastmen was still saying something, but Sang Ying no longer cared.

Her mind was filled with the image the other person had described... black hair and long horns, someone who had suddenly appeared not long ago.

Could it be Jiang Zhuoxue?
