Chapter 603 The Fallen Female Beast King (17)

As usual, the cat tribe's hunting party prepared to set off on a hunt.

But today, Captain Lin Yuan had been waiting at the tribe's exit for a long time, and all the team members were late without exception.

He strode back impatiently, only to bump right into the team members who were supposed to be at the exit with him at the starting point.

Lin Yuan grabbed him with a cold face.

"What's going on?! Didn't you know we were going hunting today?!"

The male struggled to walk away, then stared at Lin Yuan with a very strange and suspicious look, finally leaving behind a comment.

"I'm not going."

"Not going? Ha, do you want your whole family to starve to death at home?"

The other person continued to shake their head, seemingly not wanting to spend even a second longer with Lin Yuan, and quickly left.

Besides him, Lin Yuan saw similar expressions on the faces of different clansmen.

They all looked at him as if he were a monster.

Unable to bear it any longer, Lin Yuan grabbed a former member of the hunting team and glared at him angrily.

"What do you mean?! You think you've grown wings?! You want to starve to death?!"

"I'd rather starve to death than go hunting with someone like you."

Lin Yuan laughed in exasperation.

"Me? Who am I? Explain yourself! What exactly do you mean?!"

The male looked at him with a mixture of fear and disgust.

"Don't you know what you've done? Everyone knows you killed your mistresses!"

Mistresses?!

Upon hearing those two names, Lin Yuan, who had just been arrogant, felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over his head, and he couldn't help but shiver. However, out of reason, he still angrily denied it.

"What nonsense are you talking about?! How could I possibly kill them? They were eaten by carnivorous plants, you all know that!"

"We were deceived by you and A-Gang. You killed the mistresses."

Lin Yuan, you are so cruel. Xiao San and Xiao Si grew up with you since they were little. They treated you like their own brother. In the end, you took their lives just to help a female get revenge!

You don't need to explain anymore; the facts are already crystal clear to us!

If you want to atone for your sins, then go to the ancient tree and kowtow to Jin Shu to admit your mistakes!

This long speech left Lin Yuan speechless.

What's the meaning?

How did they know that he killed the mistresses?

The only witness, Ah Gang...

Ah Gang!!

Lin Yuan reacted instantly and strode towards the ancient tree.

From a great distance, he could see almost the entire tribe gathered around the ancient tree.

Everyone held a gray branch in their hand, circling around the ancient tree.

This is a unique ritual performed by the clansmen to commemorate their deceased members.

Because the race is small in number, the death of any member is a great loss to the community.

People spontaneously use this method to express their grief and regret.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan's heart pounded like thunder.

For a moment, he didn't dare to go forward.

Finally, someone spotted him and shouted his name, which made Lin Yuan, who was about to retreat, stop in his tracks.

He remained calm, but that calmness completely crumbled when he walked through the crowd and saw Xiao Si lying on the ground, dead for several days, wrapped in animal skin.

The people around him looked at him with suspicion and disgust.

Accusations and insults surrounded me.

How could you do something so heinous?

"He's one of our people!"

"They were just young children, without even their own cubs, and you killed them so inexplicably!"

"Lin Yuan, you are not worthy to be the next clan leader!!"

"Yes, you are not fit to be the next clan leader! I object!"

Opposition is growing stronger.

Lin Yuan was about to retort and explain when, at that moment, A Gang slowly emerged from behind the ancient tree.

The moment A-Gang appeared, Lin Yuan felt as if the sky had fallen.

Based on A-Gang's testimony and the claw marks on Xiao-Si's body, it can be definitively concluded that Lin Yuan harmed his own clan.

The clan leader had many sons, but Lin Yuan was the most outstanding.

He stood to the side with a cold face, not saying a word.

At this moment, anything he said would be in vain. Lin Yuan was completely beyond saving. All he could do was preserve his existing authority and pass the position of clan leader to another son.

Anyway, he has plenty of sons.

Amidst the growing anger of the crowd, the clan leader, upholding justice even against his own family, chose to expel Lin Yuan.

Everyone was puzzled as to why Lin Yuan could do something so heinous as to harm his fellow disciples.

Ah Gang said indignantly.

"Because the mistresses are Jin Shu's beastly husbands! And Jin Shu once offended Jin Ying!"

To avenge Jin Ying, Lin Yuan killed Jin Shu's beastly husband!

As an eyewitness, he was worried that things would be exposed, so last night he cornered me in a cave!

If I hadn't been lucky enough to find the exit, no one would have ever seen Lin Yuan's true colors!

And Jin Ying! She's a menace!

This statement carries a hint of personal grudge.

The males remained silent, but many females felt the same way.

Since Jin Ying became pregnant with her second child, almost all of the clan's limited resources have been poured into her alone.

Meanwhile, another female gave birth on a snowy night, but because she only gave birth to two pups, no one paid any attention to it.

In the end, if Jin Shu hadn't given her her own charcoal, both children would have frozen to death.

Therefore, the female reacted the most intensely at this moment, even shouting that she would drive Jin Ying out as well.

Of course, she knew in her heart that this was impossible.

Jin Ying is pregnant, and for that reason alone, there's absolutely no way she'll be kicked out.

In the end, Lin Yuan was expelled and Jin Ying was confined to her quarters.

The clan chief even came up to everyone in person and asked.

“A-Yuan is my most valued son. Now that he has done such a thing, as the clan leader, I will absolutely not tolerate it! But Jin Ying is, after all, our cat clan’s lucky star. This matter has little to do with her, and I believe everyone understands.”

And so, in just one day, the person who was expelled was Lin Yuan.

As for Agang, he was still not accepted by his tribe, but at least he had taken his revenge and, under Jin Shu's arrangement, moved into a cave next to the cat tribe.

The day Jin Ying gave birth to her second child happened to be the same day that the eagle egg that Jin Shu brought back hatched.

The eaglet was indeed a weakling. When it hatched, its whole body was swollen. Its little wings flapped weakly twice, and then its body immediately became top-heavy and fell forward.

Seeing this, Ah Qi immediately supported its small body, frowning with some worry.

"This egg was obviously soaked in cold water when it was laid, otherwise the offspring of the eagle clan would not be so weak."
