People in the League, Masters of Time Management

"I'm not ready to confront the Frost Guards head-on... Or do what I said, take it easy?"

"Sometimes you need to cut through the mess quickly." Mu Bai's tone was very relaxed, as if he was just saying that he was going to dance later. "The Frost Priest is like a slow poison thrown into the Horde. The longer it drags on, the more damage it will do."

"But……"

"Don't worry, I will help you."

"Hmm..." Sejuani nodded her head with difficulty, looked at Ashe who was sleeping soundly, and then at Mubai who was full of confidence, and said with a sigh of relief:

"Okay! Then what do you need me to do?"

"There are many ways, it depends on whether you want to choose the easy one or the troublesome one." Mu Bai smiled.

Sejuani held the sharp ax and said without thinking, "Since I have made a choice, the sooner the better."

"As it should be."

Mubai nodded in satisfaction, gently put down the girl leaning on his shoulder, then swung his arm, and the wooden cup half filled with fruit wine drew a beautiful arc in the air.

boom.The sound of wood hitting the head was a bit dull.

Viscous fruit wine spilled all over the high priest, and the rim of the cup just fit on the protruding decoration of his steel helmet. Coupled with his angry expression, he looked like a bull being played by a matador.

"I guess you're not slippery, despicable outsider..."

The high priest came forward aggressively with a few people, and he didn't even have time to wipe the fruit wine off his face.

He had smelled a terrifying and evil aura from Mubai before, but it didn't mean he was afraid anymore, and he wouldn't swallow his anger when he was humiliated!

Behind the Frost Priest is the entire Frost Guardian tribe!It is the great Lady of Ice and Darkness!

"Mubai..." Sejuani panicked.

Although the sooner the better, it can't be so simple and rude, right?

Mu Bai lowered his hand slightly, signaling the girl not to worry, then turned to look at the Frost Priests, with a playful arc drawn at the corner of his mouth.

"You're right, Priest. I didn't slip. I did it on purpose. To hit you on the head."

"Can I take your actions as a provocation? Provoking the Frost Priest, provoking the entire Frost Guard?" The high priest's voice became colder.

And Mubai still looked indifferent, "Yes. Besides, someone is sleeping, please speak softly."

The successive contempt made several Frost Priests furious. They no longer cared about the issue of reputation, so they picked up the bone staff and were about to hit Mubai on the head.

Especially the most humiliated High Priest, who not only waved the bone staff, but also secretly stored attack magic in the other hand.

"Fuck me Frost Guardian—"

However, before he finished speaking, a cold long sword was already pressed against his neck.

"I said, keep your voice down." Mu Bai gently shook his wrist, and a few drops of blood immediately spilled out.

Seeing this, the other Frost Priests did not dare to act rashly.

"I don't like killing people, so I'm giving you two choices here."

Mu Bai glanced at Ashe from the corner of his eye, and after confirming that the latter was still swimming in his dream, he continued:

"First, take your things and leave Winter's Claw. You can tell Lissandra about this, it doesn't matter if you add oil or vinegar, anyway, I will go to Frost Fortress myself soon."

"Second, try to have a direct conflict with me. If you are lucky, you can continue to nibble on the Winter's Claw. If you are unlucky, you will meet in the underworld."

"Come on, let's choose."

After finishing speaking, Mu Bai moved the blade away, smiling, looking really like the fragrant buns in the mouth of women in the clan.

But everyone present knew that this young man was not as kind as he looked.

"Aren't you afraid of the Frost Guard's revenge?" But the high priest wasn't frightened, and he didn't hesitate at all.

Mu Bai raised his eyebrows, and the right hand holding the sword gradually turned into a demon.The ominous atmosphere almost made everyone breathless.

"I let you choose, not ask questions."

This is the final warning.

A drop of cold sweat flowed down the high priest's forehead, feeling a little apprehensive.

After thinking for a moment, he made the stupidest decision of his life.

"Swear to the death to defend the glory of Lady Ice and Darkness!" Accompanied by an impassioned slogan, the frost magic he had accumulated for a long time was suddenly released.

The low temperature of one hundred degrees below zero instantly froze Mubai's demon hand.The other Frost Priests saw that the attack worked, and most of the fear in their hearts disappeared immediately, and they launched attacks one after another.

"Mubai!"

Sejuani yelled anxiously, awakening Ashe who was sleeping, and also attracted the attention of the tribe.

Under the watchful eyes of hundreds of people, Mubai turned into an ice sculpture.

The high priest breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to speak out to ridicule the other party's arrogance and poverty, but unexpectedly, Mu Bai's voice came from the ice sculpture:

"You made the worst choice, High Priest..."

Chapter 10 As long as I have no morals, no one can kidnap me

Those seemingly unbreakable solid ice are as fragile as white paper to Mu Bai, and the ice cubes will be turned into powder with just a light wave of his hand.

Exclamations erupted from the crowd.

The few women who wanted to "play" with Mu Bai just now were dumbfounded, and even felt cheated.

The cute little brother you said, why is it so scary...

"Eh? What happened?" Ashe just woke up confused, "Mubai? Your hand..."

"It's hard for me to explain this to you. Anyway... don't worry."

Mu Bai shook his demonized arm, shook off all the ice scum, and then slowly walked towards the high priest.

again.The pathetic Frost Priest smelled danger once again.

He frantically waved his bone staff, and hit the opponent with several ice spells one after another, but to no avail.

The next moment, the arm with the dark red streamer strangled his throat, and then easily lifted him up.

Discussions erupted again from the crowd.

Ordinary people are not as far-sighted as Ashe and Sejuani. In their eyes, the Frost Priest is not a parasite that harms the tribe, but a savior who gives food and shelter to everyone.

"Let go of the High Priest!" cried a woman. "Let him go, you wretched foreigner!"

Immediately afterwards, more and more clansmen echoed loudly, or requested, or insulted.

"Don't act recklessly just because of your good looks and strength!"

"Damn foreigner! White-eyed wolf! It's a shame we entertained you just now!"

"Let go of the high priest, Mubai! Stop now and we can intercede for you..."

"I swear, if the high priest dies, you don't want to leave Winter's Claw alive!"

…………

The waves of voices overwhelmed the waves, and everyone hoped that the Frost Priests in the tribe would be safe and sound.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Sejuani quickly stood up and argued: "Calm down, brothers and sisters! Think about what the Frost Priests did! They didn't hunt or farm, they just forced us to form an alliance with those cumbersome tribes!"

"But the priest gave us food!" Someone raised their arms and shouted, regardless of Sejuani's identity as the daughter of the war mother.

In this world of ice and snow, the amount of food is much larger than that of a mere war mother and daughter.

"The priest is doing it for our own good!" More people echoed.

"It's just their trick!" Sejuani quickly explained, "They want to use some trivial food to control us! They're infiltrating Winter's Claw, and they're up to something!"

Unfortunately, no one wants to listen to her words, let alone believe her.

They didn't know that the food given by the Frost Priests actually came from the prey they hunted;

Sejuani's explanation was useless.

"Did you see... foreigners..." the high priest spoke with difficulty, his hoarse voice filled with morbid pride. "The people are not on...your side..."

The other Frost Priests also secretly felt complacent.As long as they have the support of the populace, they are invincible—or so it seems to them.

"The truth is always in the hands of the few, High Priest."

But Mu Bai was not panicked, the indifference on his face remained the same, as if he had expected this to happen long ago.

"You made what you think is the right choice, and attempted to kill me directly with ice magic. So, are you ready to bear the consequences?"

There was a hint of confusion in the high priest's eyes.

And this trace of confusion became the last thought in his life.

Snapped.His cervical spine snapped.

The crowd fell silent instantly, and hundreds of people looked at Mu Bai and the corpse in his hand that was getting cold in disbelief.

Even Ashe and Sejuani couldn't react at this moment.

Although they also hated the Frost Priests and wished for them to die, they committed murder openly in front of so many people...

Is there something... wrong?

"Don't try to kidnap me morally. For those who want to kill me and do it, I have the right to fight back in the same way."

Mu Bai looked back at the crowd's shocked and angry gaze with disdainful eyes.In a trance, he suddenly thought of the group of people from the Navoli Brotherhood, how similar they were.

The same ignorance, the same self-confidence that a large number of people can exert pressure.

Moral kidnapping?reputation?Stupid and childish stuff.

"What about you, do you want to make the same choice?" He casually put down the high priest's body, and then faced the other Frost Priests. "Leave, or die?"

Now, no one dares to shout anymore.

After a few frost priests hesitated for a moment, they turned and ran away, regardless of their companion's corpse.

The movement here finally attracted the war mother Kuojiya.

A burly woman pushed aside the crowd, walked up to Mubai, looked at the high priest's body, and then at Sejuani's slightly disturbed expression.

"It seems that you came back this time not only to bring back food, but also surprises, my stupid daughter..."

"It's time for us to resist!" Sejuani frowned, and replied forcefully: "The strong should do what is impossible!"

Kuo Jiya stared at her daughter's resolute face and sneered.

In her eyes, Sejuani is just a fool who is daydreaming under the protection of her tribe.Her ideals are worthless, and her ambitions are even more ridiculous.

"Stop joking, Sejuani. You should think about how to deal with this mess." She pointed to Mubai and said, "This outsider killed the high priest, and the Frost Guard will come to the door soon."

"Then we'll beat them back!" Sejuani still didn't budge.

"Hehe... my stupid daughter, you are so naive..."

"Just because you're afraid doesn't mean I'm afraid!"

"Ok?"

"If you are timid to fight, then let me lead the Winter's Claw!"

Sejuani was short of breath, her face was flushed, and the words that had been held in her heart for a long time finally burst out at once:

"You are well aware of the methods and schemes of the Frost Priest, but you pretend not to see them, and try to compromise in exchange for temporary stability!"

"You took away Xijian's grandmother's position, but made Winter's Claw even more depraved!"

"From the moment you abandoned the Horde 18 years ago, you are not worthy to be the Warmother of Winter's Claw!"

These words gave Sejuani courage and made Kokiya furious.

The latter approached with a spear in his hand, looking down at Sejuani with his size advantage, "You want to challenge me? Do you want to become a new war mother?"

"..." Sejuani pursed her lips, and subconsciously went to Mubai and Ai Hope.

Mubai nodded with a smile, while Ashe looked back at her with firm eyes.

At this moment, she was full of confidence and courage.

"If you can't lead Winter's Claw, let me do it!"
