Chapter 66 The Little Orc's Background

Hollen snapped out of his reverie and stopped thinking about it.

At least, the changes in the female master are good and harmless to him.

He shook his head.

"Then we'll go explore the tribe first. You take the female master back to rest."

Lu Liufeng nodded.

This time, he did not transform into a full eagle form. He simply spread his wings, picked up the female master horizontally, held her in his arms, and flew into the sky.

Mu Ling stared longingly in the direction where the female master had disappeared, not wanting to go to the tribe to investigate, but wanting to go back.

Hollen: "Let's go, stop looking, you can't see anything anymore."

The wind and snow were so heavy that it disappeared completely as soon as it took to the air.

Mu Ling stretched out two fingers, pointed them at her eyes, and drew them towards the sky.

"My eyes can see no distance!!"

Hollen: "..."

He was too lazy to waste words with him and simply turned and left.

But as he left the courtyard, he glanced at his wound.

Then, the lion's azure eyes narrowed, a sharp glint flashing within them.

That thing... is gone.

In the cursed land, there are few things that can harm him.

But just now, when he crashed into the ruins, his arm was cut by something sharp.

With the enemy at the front, he had no time to scout ahead and could only deal with the three orcs who had lost their minds.

Now that the matter was over, he had time to think and wanted to investigate, only to find that the thing was gone.

Hollen's gaze swept across the ruins and the courtyard. Apart from a few orcs who were still envious of those who hadn't left, there was only a small lynx orc crouching in the ruins.

He had vaguely heard some things about the little orc, but hadn't paid attention.

He walked towards the lynx-like orc, lowered his head, and released the oppressive aura of the Golden Lion Clan.

"So, did you see the thing that scratched me earlier?"

Although not a beastman, they are of the same lineage, and the pressure from the Golden Lion Clan can still affect him.

So seemed to be frightened by the oppressive aura. He bowed his upper body slightly, shook his head, and said in a trembling voice.

"No, I didn't see it."

Seeing that Hollen was using his intimidating aura to scare the little beastman, Mu Ling flashed over and patted him.

What are you doing!

Hollen withdrew his oppressive aura and glanced at him.

"It's alright, let's go."

Before stepping out of the courtyard, he turned back and glanced at the lynx-like beastman.

The lynx did not raise its head, but remained bowed, as if it were truly intimidated by his imposing presence.

But Hollen frowned.

For some reason, he felt that something was off.

However, the other party was just a small beastman who had not yet taken human form. He thought about it casually and then dismissed the various thoughts in his mind.

After all the orcs left the ruins.

So slowly raised his head. In his pale yellow eyes, there was only indifference, not fear.

He looked up at the snowflakes falling from the sky and thought, "How wonderful."

Since the curse has arrived, he doesn't need to do it himself.

As soon as Jiang Xi got home, she couldn't wait to ask Lu Liufeng about the lynx-like beastman.

"Why are those orcs so mean to the little orc?"

Logically speaking, aren't the little orcs the treasures of the tribe?

Quake cherishes Little Di so much, so why do these orcs treat that little lynx orc so badly?

Before Lu Liufeng could speak, Yi Yuexi took the initiative to explain.

After all, as the object of admiration for all the females in the tribe, he was most familiar with these gossip stories that were tinged with a bit of romance.

"I heard that more than ten years ago, there were two half-sex women in the tribe who both fell in love with a lynx beastman."

"Later, this orc married his sister and soon gave birth to a baby orc named So."

"The elder sister also married another beastman and lived next door to the younger sister."

"Eight or nine years ago, in the tribe, an orc was corrupted by a curse. When it took effect, he accidentally killed his sister. Several of his sister's orc husbands also died from the effects of their marriage contracts. Only the little orc, So, survived."

"So, my sister adopted the little beastman, So..."

As Jiang Xi listened to this story, a hint of doubt appeared in her eyes.

This story doesn't sound like there's anything wrong with it.

Could it be that the female beastmen disliked the little beastman who was freeloading, which is why they treated him so badly?

Yi Yuexi changed the subject, "But it is said..."

Jiang Xi's eyes widened suddenly, and she looked at him expectantly.

Yi Yuexi stroked her chin and asked with a smile, "Does the female master want to know?"

Jiang Xi nodded.

Yi Yuexi grinned mischievously, "Then the female master..."

Lu Liufeng glanced at him helplessly and explained directly for the female master.

"Suo is about to transform into human form. Chen Ya wants to marry Suo, but her beast husbands disagree."

"Because, over the years, Chen Ya would rather her two offspring and beastmen husbands go hungry than let Suo eat his fill. Suo often bullies the other two little beastmen, but Chen Ya turns a blind eye to it. Therefore, her beastmen husbands do not like Suo and are unwilling to let him marry into the family."

Lu Liufeng explained Yi Yuexi's lengthy explanation in just a few words.

But Jiang Xi was still stunned.

"What about Naso's opinion? Is he willing to marry her?"

Combining these two articles, it seems no one has asked about So's wishes.

Furthermore, although the lifespan of beastmen in this world is very long, the female master can even share the life of the strongest beastman.

But children raised from a young age...

Jiang Xi felt a sense of... ethical discomfort.

Moreover, if we calculate it this way, Suo is Chen Ya's nephew, right?

Aunt marrying her nephew? Just thinking about it gives her goosebumps.

Jiang Xi rubbed her arms, and her attention was instantly drawn back when she caught a glimpse of the kitchen roof, which had gone from having a small piece blown off to having a large piece in front of her.

Before Yi Yuexi and Lu Liufeng could answer, they heard the female master speak again.

"Let's fix up the kitchen!"

Yi Yuexi: "Huh?"

Lu Liufeng was also stunned for two seconds.

How did the topic go from... the little orc Suo to repairing the roof?

But he still smiled and nodded, "Okay."

At the unnoticed gate of the courtyard, the pointed ears with a tuft of hair disappeared in a flash.

The atmosphere among the orcs in the tribe was too chaotic today, so Lu Liufeng and Yi Yuexi did not notice the small figure at the door just now.

Repairing the roof in the wind and snow.

Jiang Xi also understood more and more deeply why beast-like activities were not allowed in the tribe!

The fire room was small when it was opened; when she returned, she saw several houses that had collapsed like the ones before.

These houses are too flimsy.

If the houses were sturdier and the roads were wider, then the beast-like creatures could also roam freely within the tribe.

It's also beneficial for moving heavy objects!

For example, when carrying food back from the tribe's gate, in orc form, one can only carry two bags at a time, but in beast form, carrying four or five bags is no problem at all!

However, even if they really want to improve their home's housing, they can only consider it after this winter.

Improving housing in this cold weather would probably mean freezing into an icicle first.

Jiang Xi rubbed her hands together and breathed on them.

It's so cold.

She looked up and gave Lu Liufeng, who was on the roof, a thumbs-up gesture of encouragement.

"Go for it, Lu Liufeng!"

Lu Liufeng turned around and smiled gently at the female master.

At that moment, Yi Yuexi's voice, mixed with the sound of wind and snow, drifted down from the rooftop.

"Can't the Mistress see me, this huge Izumo, on the roof?"
