The matter of the Yanhuang Tribe recruiting the Traveler Tribe was naturally known to the Chun Tribe, which had previously intermarried with the Yanhuang Tribe. Hagen, upon thinking that if the Yanhuang Tribe was willing to accept the Traveler Tribe, would likely not refuse their Chun Tribe either. Hagen discussed his idea with the Great Witch, and after receiving approval, he brought two hundred warriors to find Yan Shuangshuang.
But upon arriving at the Yanhuang Tribe, they discovered it was empty and deserted. Moreover, because all the food had been harvested clean, Hagen couldn't find any edible plants.
Though hunting prey could keep some from starving, this would mean sacrificing many ordinary people to ensure the warriors' survival, a choice Hagen was entirely unwilling to make.
