Return to the sea quickly!

The other side.

Xingyao looked up at the "flying bird" that flew out, frowning.

Jingxiang curled up on the ground, her eyes vaguely glancing at Fuying's back, her expression a little dazed.

"Xiangxiang, tell me, should I believe her?" Xingyao hesitated.

Fu Ying's bad reputation was like a thorn in the side of the mermaid tribe, and he was regarded as an enemy by his fellow tribesmen.

Logically, he shouldn't believe her, let alone pay any attention to her, but when she casually said that she could help Danyue reshape the star pattern, he was still moved. This was a great temptation for him.

This thought was too dangerous, like a bait that was known to be poisonous, tearing his sanity to pieces.

He couldn't believe it, but he wanted to believe it, and his heart was a mess.

Jingxiang came back to her senses, and her fingertips paused slightly when they touched Xingyao's tense wrist. She held his hand to gain leverage and stood up. She turned to look at Fuying, took a deep breath, and said in a low voice, "Trust her this time."

Jingxiang pursed her lips, her back teeth feeling a little sore, but the repeated words still came out from between her teeth: "Xingyao, I think she can be trusted."

After Jingxiang finished speaking, she was afraid that Xingyao might misunderstand, so she quickly explained, "I'm not speaking up for her because I consider her a friend. You saw it at the tribal trade meeting. In order to protect the beast husband of the fallen orc, she even went to war with more than a dozen tribes. She doesn't seem like the evil she is rumored to be."

After a pause, the scene of the tribal trade meeting emerged in her mind.

"...She obviously didn't have to come. Tell me, how could a truly vicious female put herself in danger to protect her beastly husband?" Jingxiang whispered, her voice almost dissipated in the wind.

Her gaze unconsciously drifted towards Fu Ying's back, then quickly retracted.

"Xingyao, I think there might be some misunderstanding here."

Xingyao listened carefully to Jingxiang's words, and when he lowered his eyes to stare at her, there was a kind of concentration in his eyes.

He knew his female very well. Although she looked innocent, she had her own ideas. Her favorite thing was to sit alone on the reef and count the stars. When she was in the tribe, she rarely played with other females.

At this moment, she held his hand, her brows slightly furrowed, and her expression revealed a rare stubbornness.

"I know." Xingyao said softly, with indulgence in his voice.

He gently stroked the back of her hand with his fingertips: "I know you never speak for anyone easily."

This was the first time he saw Jingxiang so trusting and liking a female, which was rare. It was like she had finally found a kindred spirit. He could sense the joy in her heart, but unfortunately, it was broken by his own hands.

If it were any other female, he would let her make new friends, but...

Fu Ying had caused a bloody storm in the Oasis Tribe, and even in the entire Beishan, her reputation was extremely loud. He didn't know whether there was any misunderstanding here, but he had witnessed what happened to Dan Yue with his own eyes, and it was a fact.

Thinking of this, Xingyao slowly shook his head, a hint of darkness flashing in his eyes.

"You won't come to see her. The mermaids would eat her alive, so how could they possibly help her find Tanyue? You know the constraints that females place on their beastly husbands. Even if I really hope it's true, I can't take the risk."

Having said that, Xingyao looked up at Fu Ying with a cold expression and a layer of frost in his eyes.

Just as he was about to speak, he saw Fu Ying suddenly turn his head, and his eyes swept towards him and Jingxiang like a knife. His eyes were so cold that it seemed that even the air around them was frozen.

Xingyao's pupils suddenly widened, and he instinctively protected Jingxiang behind him.

"call out--"

The arrow shot out from Fu Ying's fingertips, carrying with it a string of dazzling starlight, broke through the air!

Xingyao's muscles were tensed, his fangs were exposed, and a low beast roar rolled out of his throat.

Is this vicious female going to kill them all?

The tribesmen around him tensed up instantly, their scales looming, and they all stared at Fu Ying intently.

In a flash, the arrow, accompanied by a sharp scream, passed by Xingyao's ear!

“Puff—”

Blood splattered everywhere, and an arrow accurately penetrated the shoulder of the orc behind, nailing him to the tree trunk behind him. The muffled sound of the bark exploding and the heart-wrenching wails rang out at the same time, tearing the heavy air apart.

“Dang—”

The bone knife fell, and the orc covered his bloody shoulder with his hand, his face full of pain.

Xingyao turned around suddenly and met Jingxiang's pale face. Three steps behind her, an orc was nailed to a tree trunk. His blood almost froze and cold sweat instantly covered his back.

If Fu Ying had been a little slower... that whale scent...

The Xingyao Beast's pupils contracted violently, and it hugged Whale Xiang in its arms with some fear.

Fu Ying tapped her toes lightly and landed in front of Xingyao and Jingxiang like a light feather, protecting them.

She caught the sound of rustling approaching in the forest, turned her wrist, and the frost whip condensed with coldness.

Fu Ying's red lips moved slightly, and she said in a deep voice, "Take your people and leave! The tribes from Beishan are chasing us. If you save me, they will undoubtedly see you as my accomplices."

Her charming profile was tense. "I'm afraid that explanations won't do. Return to the sea!"

Xingyao didn't hesitate at all and immediately raised his neck and let out a long roar!

The members of the Qijing tribe heard the sound and followed Xingyao and Jingxiang, running wildly towards the ocean. The birds startled along the way fluttered and scattered.

Jingxiang was held in Xingyao's arms, but she kept looking back at Fuying.

Although she was not thin, she was very slender, like a solitary bamboo.

In the distance, she saw orcs swarming towards her like locusts, with clouds of dust and smoke as well as bursts of beast roars. They were calling their friends to encircle and suppress Fu Ying!

"What should we do with Fuying?" Jingxiang's voice trembled, and her nails couldn't help but clasp Xingyao's arm tightly.

Xingyao didn't turn around, nor did he answer Jingxiang.

He gritted his teeth, listening to the increasingly loud roar of the beast behind him. His expression was extremely heavy, and he silently quickened his pace, allowing Jingxiang's nails to dig deep into his arms, causing pain.

Xingyao's fangs bit through the inner wall of his mouth, and the taste of rust spread across the tip of his tongue.

The person he left without looking back was not Fu Ying, but Dan Yue.

The female died, and the final result for Tan Yue, the beast husband... His muscles tensed into a ferocious arc, but he still didn't look back, but hugged Jing Xiang tighter.

He couldn't help her, nor could he save Danyue. Fu Ying would eventually be lost in the fierce encirclement of the orcs.

He formed a pact with Jingxiang, and his greatest responsibility in this life was to protect her. When her animal-shaped pattern appeared on his neck, all his vows were tied to her alone.

This time, Fu Ying will definitely not be able to escape.

They are just the most insignificant waves in the ocean, unable to control even their own destiny. They cannot care about so many things and cannot shake this massacre.

Fu Ying's figure gradually disappeared from sight. Jingxiang's eyes were red. She leaned on Xingyao's shoulder without saying a word, but her tears soaked the scales on his neck, and her whimpering was mixed with the roar of the beast.

Xingyao never looked back.
