Ancient Eden

Chapter 54

(18.1)

Yi Jia removed the usual smile on his face and looked carefully at the woman standing in front of him for the first time.

She had waist-length hair, that was black and straight, and was now wet with water. It was sticking to her neck, like a large black aquatic weed, it was most definitely very soft to the touch. Her skin was glossy and smooth, and the texture was like… the liquid that some kind of tree in the forest secreted, that was a thick like a woman’s milk. The women of the tribe liked to collect that milky liquid to apply it onto their skin when the weather turned dry and cold.

His gaze fell on her chest.

People in the tribe talked about her behind her back like she was another species, mostly because she did not walk naked like the other women here, who only covered their lower body. Now he suddenly felt that women should be like her, covering their bodies during the day, so that at night, only her man would be able to untie what covered her body, to see all that belonged to him. This way was probably more se*ually exciting for men. He remembered the graceful sight he caught a glimpse of when he appeared by the stream the other day, and although she quickly turned her back, he saw most of her exposed figure above the water, she wasn’t at all as slim and thin as she appeared to be. The shape was like plump peaches, begging for people to pick them.

No other woman in the tribe had such a shape of breasts. Naonao’s might be a little bigger than hers, but they were not as beautiful as hers. There were also a few faint red spots on them, most likely marks that Li Mang had left on her the night before. He suddenly felt an irrepressible jealousy towards Li Mang, which was why he felt like teasing her, and deliberately appeared behind her, throwing stones behind her, joking with the women, before then quietly taking the little thing she had taken off from her body.

Seeing that Yi Jia was just staring at her chest, although Mu Qing didn’t know what he was thinking, but she felt that it was definitely not a good thing. Her face turned icy, and she bypassed him as she headed towards the settlement.

Yi Jia followed a few steps behind her, unhurried.

Half a month ago, he and Li Mang went out hunting at the same time, but they each went on their own hunt, separately. This luxuriant forest, and the vast wilderness beyond the forest, this was the environment in which he grew up. Ruthless. The strong preying on the weak. But from the bottom of his heart, he loved all of it. As one of the strongest and best hunters in the tribe, he naturally knew how insignificant the strength of an individual was compared to that of nature and ferocious beasts.

But he was absolutely fearless. This was the final test of a competition that had lasted years between him and Li Mang, the companion who he grew up with, or should he say brother, in order to compete for the position of the next tribal leader.

Whether it was strength, skill, brain, or prestige among the tribe, he felt that he was on a par with Li Mang. So, in this last competition, he swore in his heart, to the sun god, that he would definitely defeat Li Mang and become the next leader.

At that time, he not only wanted everyone in the tribe to live a better and more stable life than now, but he also wanted to lead the men in the tribe to fight and merge the dozens of small and big other tribes that had multiplied in this land for generations, and no longer be like now, in this passive state of resistance.

He had a great dream that one day he would put an end to the frequent bloody struggles between tribes for food and women, he wanted to make everyone overthrow the idols they originally worshiped and instead worship him, as well as the sun god in his mental view, and he, Yi Jia, would become the true king ruling over this vast land.

His blood was boiling for this ideal. He and Li Mang had always been playing a fair game.

Everything he did was done with a clear conscience, except for one matter: Naonao.
