The current predicament of the clan was characterized by severe resource scarcity and a high number of injuries. Furthermore, it was evident that this clan harbored a strong aversion toward Gu Chaoyan.

She remained unclear about the underlying reasons, but it likely had connections to her past actions. Regardless, it wasn’t a significant concern, and she intended to seek an opportunity to inquire of Aina in the future. She wondered if their closeness from growing up together had any bearing on her current standing in the clan.

The fact that they disliked her didn’t weigh heavily on her mind.

What mattered most at the moment was…

The wounded individuals.

In this uncivilized world, where combat and survival depended on physical prowess, it was evident that they were accustomed to such conditions, resulting in their resilient bodies. Even those seriously injured displayed remarkable mental fortitude and recovery capabilities.

With the prepared herbs, she estimated their recovery time to be around five days.

Additionally, her spatial inventory contained numerous valuable pills, but she decided against revealing them at this point. Given her limited understanding of the current situation, it was wiser to refrain from exposing too much and make the most of the era’s resources.

Once these individuals had recuperated from their injuries, Gu Chaoyan needed to address the clan’s resource issue.

In a world devoid of civilization, resources were a rare commodity. Aina’s recent information transmission had implied that acquiring supplies here revolved around competition, and the clan lacked a substantial number of young laborers.

Competing didn’t seem like a viable strategy.

Gu Chaoyan was more inclined to create.

She intended to establish suitable material conditions before delving into other concerns.

As Gu Chaoyan pondered this, she began outlining her approach.

“Tribe Chief, don’t be troubled. The clansmen don’t bear ill will toward you. It’s just that a series of unfortunate events within the clan has left them somewhat disgruntled,” Aina reassured her, joining her side after finishing her tasks.

Aina was aware that the clansmen were actually concerned about the well-being of their Tribe Chief. When she approached earlier, it was evident that everyone tacitly allowed her to do so. Nevertheless, the clan had endured significant losses, depleting their resources. Lingering unease still pervaded, stifling open communication.

Gu Chaoyan acknowledged this.

The people in this clan appeared to be straightforward, lacking ill intentions but harboring resentment toward her.

“Aina, could you enlighten me on the specific reasons behind their animosity or dissatisfaction with me as the Tribe Chief?” Gu Chaoyan inquired directly.

Aina regarded her with a perplexed expression.

Was the Tribe Chief not aware of the cause?

Aina found herself momentarily baffled.

It appeared that since rescuing the Tribe Chief from the river, her behavior had taken on a somewhat unusual and different aspect.

“Tribe Chief, the resentment primarily stems from the conflict with the Moco Clan, which resulted in substantial casualties. Moreover, the clansmen still support Adams and are willing to curry favor with members of the Thunder Fire Clan because you admire Adams. They believe that you have neglected your duties as a Tribe Chief and abandoned your dignity. While our Five Elements Clan may be weak, we are still a clan. Without dignity and unity, a clan is headed toward extinction, as history has shown us with many clans.”

“In essence,” Aina continued, “it’s not so much that the clansmen harbor resentment, but rather they expect more from their leader.”
