He said, "He betrayed the bald eagle."

Ye Luoxing said, "He joined the Yan Beast Group only after he defeated Krolin. He has never been loyal to him, so how can he be considered a betrayer?"

Her tone was so calm. Yue Huang looked at the beasts below cleaning up their tracks. "He released all the females. That bald eagle won't let him go. He's not as skilled as the bald eagle at controlling a beast. He's just asking for trouble. I'm looking forward to what kind of interesting scene will unfold after daybreak."

"From the very beginning, it's not certain who is asking for trouble." There was a hint of indifference in her calmness.

Yue Huang understood what was going on and he calmed down. “It seems you chose the Black Wolf over the Bald Eagle.”

She was silent and didn't say anything.

He asked, "What did you talk about with this black wolf last night?"

Ye Luoxing turned to him. She knew he was referring to the banquet. Did he know?

"Nothing." Just three simple words.

Yue Huang didn't ask any more questions, but just looked in the distance at the direction where the group of females left: "Ye Luoxing, do you also miss your homeland?"

The words that suddenly came out were very familiar, and Ye Luoxing and Yue Shang were both surprised.

"Captain Ye, I was keeping an eye on the surroundings while you were talking to Liao Yuan last night. I can confirm that no orcs were approaching." Yue Shang assured her.

Ye Luoxing believed in the detection capabilities of the moon, it seemed that it was just a coincidence.

Yue Huang sighed tiredly, "Actually, a life that's too long can also make you feel lonely."

Another familiar sentence. Was it a coincidence, or did he understand something?

Ye Luoxing's face remained calm: "You have everything."

Yuehuang has a long lifespan, already two hundred years old, but the lifespan of the exotic beasts is longer than that of ordinary beasts, and they can also gain a lot of things during their long lifespan.

Yue Huang looked at her: "I don't have a partner yet."

She met his gaze: "Except for the partner."

Yue Huang laughed: "I can't get rid of it!"

The man and the beast fell silent again. Ye Luoxing did not speak again. His green eyes were like faint flames in the darkness. He stared at her deep black eyes and finally gave in.

He turned to her, raised his hand, and gently stroked the colorful neckband with his fingers. He said to her seriously and sincerely: "Ye Luoxing, if one day I can no longer find you, I will guard you until my life passes away."

She noticed how he carefully slid his fingers across the ribbon, and when she understood what he meant, she was stunned for a moment.

She raised her eyes: "Yue Huang, there is no need."

He smiled and said nothing more. He just put down his hand and turned to walk in the direction they came from: "Let's go, Ye Luoxing, let's go back. Why are you out in the cold wind in the middle of the night? Don't make yourself sick."

Ye Luoxing turned around. This was the first time she looked at Yue Huang so seriously, even though it was just his back.

The last moonlight of the early morning fell on his tall and strong figure. Every muscle in his body spoke of his vigorous vitality. His whole body was full of strength and primitive wildness. That back was definitely the most reliable barrier for the group of strange beasts. He left his mark with his strength in his long life. No one could easily cross this mountain of his. He was the strongest warrior in the West.

Ye Luoxing didn't fully understand Yue Huang, but at this moment, she realized that she might have misunderstood him in the past.

This orc is not that good, but he is definitely not that bad either.

After taking a final look at Liao Yuan, Ye Luoxing followed Yue Huang back, still leaving no trace.

Below, the orc who was making arrangements raised his purple eyes and glanced upwards, feeling that there was a familiar aura there.

Unfortunately, he didn't see anything...

Apart from the cold mountain peaks and the moonlight, everything around was so quiet...

The moon was covered by dark clouds, and rain started falling again from the sky. I raised my hand to catch a few drops, and my palm was cold.

…

The rain soaked Ye Luoxing's fur hat, and Yue Huang transformed into an animal form and accompanied her all the way to shield her from the rain.

She returned to the cave before dawn, feeling a wave of warmth wash over her. As she stepped into the light, she saw several eyes fixed on the direction she had emerged from, watching her.

She paused and saw that they were all awake, with no fatigue on their faces and no sleepiness in their eyes.

Her expression was indifferent as she walked in: "Are you all asleep?"

She didn't wake them up, which meant they hadn't slept at all. Each of these guys was better at disguising themselves than the other.

"I dare not sleep." Bei Yan added three words.

Ye Luoxing walked to the haystack next to Feng He and sat down. Yue Huang followed her into the cave and returned to his original position.

They looked at her, then at Yue Huang. The atmosphere in the cave was subtle, and everyone tacitly kept quiet, including Ye Luoxing.

Crolin broke the silence: "A Luo, where have you been?"

Ye Luoxing didn't say much. He listened to the sound of sparks bursting and the sound of rain outside and said, "I went out for a walk."

They didn't believe it, but she came back anyway.

Ye Luoxing pulled a thick animal skin from the side, covered himself with it, and then lay down on the grass behind him: "I'm tired, let's sleep."

She turned sideways, her body naturally curled up in the animal skin. They looked at the curled up figure, which flickered in the firelight.

Feng He transformed into a beast, lay down, and used one of his wings to wrap around her to prevent the cold air coming in from outside the cave from disturbing her sleep.

They sat or leaned, their gazes fixed on each other. Not a single orc fell asleep. Through the firelight, no one could tell what they were thinking. They were just quiet and silent. Perhaps, in the brief time before dawn, they thought a lot, a lot...

…

When he opened his eyes again, Ye Luoxing felt refreshed. Although he had only slept for three or four hours, it was enough.

It was eight forty-seven, and all the tribes should be setting off, and she was also about to set off.

"Captain Ye, they are all gone." Yue Shang gave the answer after the inspection.

Ye Luoxing did not stand up, but just glanced around and found that except for Feng He beside her, only Lu Lan and Xilan Meng were leaning against the opposite stone wall for a nap. The others were nowhere to be seen. They probably went to organize the team. This might be a good opportunity for her.

She withdrew her gaze, looked at the snowy owl sleeping beside her, and called softly, "Feng He."

The birds and animals beside him seemed to be sleeping soundly and did not respond to him. His breathing was even and not like other situations.

Ye Luoxing raised her hand lightly, wanting to touch the face of the bird or beast in front of her, but she didn't do that in the end. Finally, her hand fell on the wings that were circling her.

The feathers of birds and beasts tickled her palms, and the feeling spread all the way to her heart...

She whispered softly, as if talking to herself: "I'm leaving. As I said before, let's say goodbye formally."
