Chapter 216 Snow Forest Standoff

“Your orcs stole our sheep and need to give us adequate compensation.”

Lu Liufeng glanced back first to make sure the female master had entered the animal skin tent before taking a step forward.

He glanced at Layton, whose face was grim, and then looked at the silver-haired wolf-orc leader.

“If you’re referring to him, then you might have to seek compensation from the Giant Tree Royal Court.”

“He is an orc from the Giantwood Royal Court, and we are orcs from the Lion's Roar Tribe. He is not one of our orcs.”

As soon as he finished speaking, whispers suddenly arose in the dark snow forest.

"Lion Roar Tribe?"

"They're from the Lion's Roar tribe?"

"Didn't Stuart say they had fourth-tier orcs? How come it's the Lion's Roar tribe?"

"You don't want to pay, do you?"

Lu Liufeng turned his head and looked at Yang.

"Your Giantwood Kingdom should resolve its own affairs. We have no food to compensate you..."

Before he could finish speaking, a scream suddenly rang out from the animal skin tent behind him.

Lu Liufeng immediately turned his head, and Nafiel lifted the animal skin tent with his tail. Mu Ling flashed and pulled out an unconscious scraggly wolf from the pile of animal skins. It was not large and looked like a teenager who had just transformed.

Jiang Xi was glowing, and before she lost consciousness, she threw herself into the arms of the nearest beastman.

As soon as Hollen approached, he embraced the female master tightly.

Then, an overwhelming surge of spiritual energy flooded into his sea of ​​supernatural abilities, causing him to instantly lose consciousness and collapse while embracing the female master.

With a flick of his tail, Nafiel placed the female master and Hollen steadily on the collapsed animal skin tent, then used the animal skin to cover most of the female master's face.

"Boom!"

A cry of alarm came from the snowy forest, and then a giant wolf pounced out.

Along with them, wind-based abilities also rushed out.

Lu Liufeng raised his hand, easily deflecting the wind and sending him flying back into the snow forest.

In an instant, a low howl of wolves echoed through the snowy forest.

Mu Ling, carrying the scruffy wolf, said angrily.

"What's the meaning?"

"You want to steal my mistress?"

Nafiel and Yiyuexi turned around and faced the direction of the snow forest together with Lu Liufeng and Mu Ling.

In this way, even if one doesn't want to pay attention, one can still discover that the bond energy they possess is the same.

In other words, these third-tier and fourth-tier orcs are all the female's beast husbands.

Such a powerful lineup of beastmen could only be possessed by the noble females of the Great Beast City…

"This is a misunderstanding."

The silver-haired wolf-orc Stewart spoke.

Immediately afterwards, his wolfish eyes narrowed, and he let out a cold snort.

“You are not from the Lion's Roar tribe, you are all orcs from the royal court.”

He glanced at the scruffy wolf that Mu Ling was holding, a hint of displeasure in his eyes, but he still spoke.

"Let him go."

“Your orcs stole our sheep, and our orcs offended your females. Let’s call it even.”

"Let him go, and we'll leave."

Although, if they were to actually face off, they wouldn't lose.

But on their return journey, they will have to cross the border.

They weren't afraid of the orcs from the royal court.

However, if it is a noble female from a royal court, it is best not to provoke her.

After all, of the five beastmen they could see, one was in the mid-stage of the fourth major tier, one was in the early stage, and the other three were in the late stage of the third major tier. Judging from the fluctuations of their supernatural auras, they would soon enter the fourth major tier.

Such a lineup of beastmen would only elevate their status and position within the royal court, potentially even influencing the boundaries of the kingdom.

Nomadic beastmen are not afraid of trouble, but they also do not want to cause trouble.

Lu Liufeng and Yang exchanged a glance.

Yang nodded.

Lu Liufeng looked at Mu Ling and said, "Let him go."

"Lu Liufeng!" Mu Ling was about to speak again when Lu Liufeng frowned.

"Mu Ling! Don't cause trouble for the female master."

Mu Ling frowned and pursed his lips.

The next instant, he vanished from the spot.

Immediately afterwards, exclamations rang out from the snowy forest.

Mu Ling threw the scruffy wolf down and returned to the campfire.

Stuart's pupils contracted slightly, and his gaze towards Mu Ling became much more wary.

They were both wolves, and he could sense that the other's bloodline was stronger than his own.

Not to mention, he just displayed his bloodline talent.

"Stuart, Poon is unconscious and can't be woken up!"

An angry roar erupted from the wolf pack.

Lu Liufeng said, "He has just exhausted his superpowers and will wake up tomorrow."

A sharp-looking young man with short black hair stepped out from the wolf pack and scoffed.

What if he doesn't wake up tomorrow?

Mu Ling also scoffed.

"If you can't wake up, then die!"

"You!" The young man was furious and was about to step forward.

Stuart grabbed him, frowning, and said, "Serme, go back!"

Sem snorted and reluctantly retreated.

Stuart raised his hand and stepped back.

The wolf pack in the snowy forest retreated one after another.

He glanced around the campfire; the female was firmly hidden behind her several beastmen, with only a few strands of her dark hair visible.

Finally, his gaze settled on Lu Liufeng.

"I hope you're not lying, otherwise we'll go to the royal court to find you."

Lu Liufeng raised his chin.

"No need to see me out."

Stuart turned around, transformed into a giant white wolf, and ran into the snowy forest.

After the wolf pack had completely disappeared, Layton, who had been burying his head in the sand, spoke, his voice filled with displeasure.

"We're just going to let them leave like that?"

"They herded a flock of sheep; they should at least compensate us..."

“Leighton!” Yang interrupted him, frowning.

Even with his good temper, he couldn't bring himself to give him a pleasant look.

“Layton, you’re injured. You should rest and recover before you set off. I’ll take them ahead.”

Layton looked displeased at the collapsed animal skin tent.

"Isn't Jiang Xi a favored female? With her healing me, what's a little injury like this?"

Yi Yuexi chuckled.

"The female master has fallen into a coma because of you, and we don't know when she will wake up. We need to take her to the Holy City as soon as possible."

He knew, of course, that the female master would wake up tomorrow.

But he also got annoyed with Layton.

It would be best if we could shake him off.

Upon hearing this, Layton immediately fell silent, somewhat frightened.

If Jiang Xi really got into trouble...

He immediately agreed to the suggestion to stay and recover from his injuries.

He was afraid to face the king's wrath.

Lu Liufeng glanced at him and said to Hongdao.

"Pack your things, we'll set off tonight."

That scraggly wolf had its powers drained by the female master. Who knows, when it wakes up tomorrow, its powers might be greatly enhanced, just like Mu Ling's.

In that case, the pack of nomadic wolf-orcs will definitely catch up.

Outnumbered, no matter how strong Lu Liufeng and his group were, it was difficult for more than ten orcs to defeat dozens of orcs.

Not to mention, they also have a late-stage fourth-tier orc.

Hong didn't ask any more questions and immediately led the beastmen to dismantle the tents and pack their belongings.

Yang asked Leiden.

"It's another quarter of a day's journey to the Brown Bear Village. If you need to rest and recuperate there, we can take you there along the way."

"If you want to go back to the Lion's Roar Tribe..."

Yang glanced at the orcs who were holding back their discontent.

"I can ask if any orcs are willing to send you there."

Layton immediately chose the Brown Bear tribe.

If these orcs were to send him to the Lion's Roar tribe, they would surely exaggerate the situation and embellish the story.

At that time, the Lion's Roar tribe, which already disliked him, probably wouldn't let him have a good time.

Yang's eyes flickered.

He could sense that Layton would be living the life he least wanted to remember in the brown bear tribe.
