Oksana nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, there is a best guest room on the third floor, which has been carefully cleaned. I will take the master up there now."

She personally led the way, taking Li Chen to the third floor.

This guest room was indeed extraordinary. It was not only spacious and bright, but also covered with the thickest and warmest animal hides. Exquisite tapestries hung on the walls, and a faint fragrance of incense burned in the corner, creating a striking contrast with the raging snow outside the window. It was warm and comfortable.

"Master, are you satisfied with this place? If you need anything else, please let me know, and I will have it prepared immediately," Oksana asked softly, a hint of anticipation and nervousness in her eyes.

Katrelli smiled and stepped forward, whispered something to Oksana, then gave Li Chen a meaningful look before quietly leaving and gently closing the door behind him.

In the room, only Li Chen and Oksana, who was somewhat taken aback and whose cheeks then flushed red, remained.

Katril's words as she closed the door still seemed to echo in her ears: "Sister, the Master isn't used to taking a nap alone."

Oksana's heart suddenly raced. She looked at the mysterious and powerful saint before her, recalling the high priest's instructions and the future of the tribe, and felt the undisguised admiration in his eyes.

She bit her full lower lip, a resolute glint in her eyes, then slowly lowered her head and said softly, "Master, let me serve you during your afternoon nap."

It wasn't until evening, when the wind and snow gradually subsided, that the two of them came down from their guest room on the third floor.

Lady Oksana had a lingering blush on her face, her eyes were moist, and her steps seemed softer than usual, while Li Chen looked refreshed.

Katrelli was already waiting downstairs. When he saw the two of them come down, especially Oksana's obviously refreshed and charming appearance, he smiled knowingly, knowing that things were going quite smoothly.

The battle that afternoon was clearly quite intense.

Li Chen was also very satisfied with Oksana.

As expected of a mature woman with elven blood, this chieftain's wife possessed excellent physical fitness. After an afternoon of intense fighting, she was still able to walk out of the room on her own, though her steps inevitably carried a touch of fragility.

Oksana's initial awe of Li Chen transformed into near-worshipful admiration.

In her eyes, Li Chen was not only a saint of noble blood, but also a man who gave her an unprecedented and wonderful feeling, as if she had ascended to a fairyland.

Initially, she may have only been following the high priest's orders to keep Li Chen, but now, she genuinely hopes that Li Chen can stay in the tribe forever, stay by her side, so that she can experience that feeling every day.

At dinner time, the atmosphere around the dining table in the longhouse was somewhat subtle.

Li Chen and Oksana ate their food in silence, rarely exchanging words.

Katrelli sat to the side, watching the two of them, and wondered to himself: Did things progress too quickly this afternoon, and now they're shy? Don't they know how to face each other?
She was trying to find some topics to liven up the atmosphere and make the relationship between the two more harmonious, but she saw that Li Chen and Oksana almost simultaneously sped up their eating and then put down their cutlery one after the other.

Li Chen wiped his mouth, stood up, and winked at Oksana.

Oksana immediately understood, her cheeks slightly flushed as she stood up and said softly, "Master, let me escort you back to your room to rest."

Then, the two of them walked up the stairs to the third floor one after the other, completely ignoring Katril, who was still sitting at the dining table.

Katrelli's hand holding the cutlery froze in mid-air as she watched the two figures disappear at the bottom of the stairs, completely dumbfounded.

She opened her mouth, but could only sigh helplessly in the end, muttering to herself sourly, "You two are having a great time, you've completely forgotten about me, haven't you?" That night, Li Chen naturally did not return to the longhouse that Katril had arranged for him.

This left Ekaterina, Anastasia, and Dalia, who remained there, somewhat puzzled and uneasy.

Seeing that only Katrini had returned, Ekaterina couldn't help but ask, "Sister Katrini, where is Master Urg? Why didn't he come back with you?"

Katrilan was filled with mixed emotions, but he remained calm on the surface and explained, "The master is currently gaining a deeper understanding of our tribe's situation, accompanied by the chieftain's wife, Oksana. The high priest hopes that the master can inherit the position of the shaman, and the master seems to be considering it carefully, needing to conduct more in-depth investigations."

The reason sounded reasonable, and although the three women were somewhat disappointed, they couldn't say much more.

Early on the third day, Kathryn returned to Oksana's residence to look for Li Chen.

Upon entering, they saw Li Chen and Oksana sitting side by side on a long couch covered with animal hides, with animal hide scrolls recording the tribe's supplies spread out in front of them, discussing the issue of resource allocation in hushed tones.

The two had such a deep understanding that it was as if they had been partners for many years. A single glance was enough for them to understand each other's feelings, and the air was filled with an indescribable intimacy and affection.

This is understandable; after countless deep "integrations" over a day and two nights, it would be difficult for their relationship not to be harmonious.

Seeing Katrilla enter, Oksana smiled and said, "You've come at the right time, sister. The master and I were discussing the allocation of resources for the children. I plan to have the master personally meet those exceptionally talented children so he can judge how much resource is most appropriate. With the great wizard making the decision, those families will certainly not dare to raise any objections."

Li Chen nodded in agreement.

Oksana then instructed her maid to summon the two families who had argued about the matter the day before.

Before long, the two families arrived at the longhouse.

Both mothers who came were beautiful mature women around thirty years old, each leading a child who looked about seven or eight years old, with bright, intelligent eyes.

These two beautiful women were named Svetlana and Lyubov.

Svetlana lives up to her name, which means "light," and her skin is dazzlingly white, like the purest first snow, seemingly glowing softly in the indoor light.

She had long, light blonde hair, bright blue eyes, and delicate, doll-like features. She wore an elegant white fur dress, and her aura was cool yet melancholic, making her a sight to behold.

Lyubov, on the other hand, seemed much more lively; her name means "love."

She had thick chestnut curly hair, bright and mischievous green eyes, and a smile before she spoke, making it clear that she was eloquent and articulate.

She was more voluptuous than Svetlana, and wore a brighter colored dress, which made her look more enthusiastic.

As soon as the two mothers entered, they eagerly bowed to Lady Oksana and began to praise their children’s outstanding talents and how they were the future hope of the tribe, pleading with the lady to allocate more cultivation resources for the sake of their children’s potential.

Oksana raised her hand to stop them, and calmly said, "The allocation of resources will be decided today by the esteemed Master Urg. With his keen insight, the Master will surely give the fairest judgment."

Upon hearing that the legendary holy great wizard would be the judge, Svetlana and Lyubov immediately suppressed their anxious expressions and became extremely respectful. They quickly pulled their children and knelt down before Li Chen, pleading, "Please, great wizard, have mercy and look at our children!"
