Su Tang did not notice Hu Shen's unusual behavior.

"No, I don't know him. I just heard from the orcs that there is a kind of wolf orc who is very good at herding sheep. And wolves are the natural enemies of sheep, so they should be more talented at herding sheep."

She explained.

After hearing Su Tang's words, Hu Shen finally looked away, and his brows relaxed.

"May I have your name?"

"Your Majesty, my name is Langmu." Langmu lowered his head, his body trembling.

He was the weakest of the wolf-beastmen, and because of his strange appearance, he was considered an outcast by the wolf clan. He never expected that one day he would be summoned by the king.

The king's aura was even stronger than he had imagined; it felt like he was about to devour him...

"Wolfwood, go and let the sheep run around the grassland once, then return to their original positions." Hu Shen assigned him the task, testing his abilities.

Other orcs tried to drive the sheep away, but the sheep seemed rooted to the spot and refused to move. The orcs even wanted to carry the sheep on their backs and run away.

Getting sheep to run in circles on the grassland is harder than climbing to heaven.

Wolfwood was truly intimidated by Tiger God's aura, and quickly nodded.

Now, he wouldn't dare to object to anything I asked him to do.

Soon, a wolf with black and white fur and a unique shape arrived on the grassland. It ran and drove the sheep, but its speed was not as fast as that of other wolves.

But somehow, as if by magic, the flock of sheep was quickly driven by it.

The first sheep started running, followed by three or four sheep, then a dozen or so sheep...

Finally, the entire flock of sheep, led by it, ran around the grassland.

After circling around, they returned to the same spot, and the sheep lowered their heads to graze.

This scene utterly stunned the beasts.

The flock of sheep that they couldn't even drag with their bare hands was surprisingly obedient to this wolf-orc!

These sheep are outrageous!

Hu Shen was slightly surprised, but his face remained calm.

His son, Ah Tang, is already quite capable, so it's no big deal that he knows all this.

Su Tang wasn't surprised; this was racial talent, a talent hidden in the genes of the wolf-orc.

After careful selection, Wolfwood was finally chosen to take care of the sheep.

For a flock of more than two hundred sheep, one wolf beastman would be enough. However, for the safety of the flock at night, Hu Shen also selected two eagle beastmen and two wolf beastmen to be responsible for watching over the sheepfold at night.

Wolfwood was flattered.

It's unbelievable that he, who was disliked by his clan since childhood, is now able to serve the king.

He secretly vowed to take good care of the flock of sheep and raise them to be fat and healthy, so as to repay the king's kindness.

Yingjie brought a large group of orcs to build a sheep pen, and Su Jianyuan and Daqing also went to help.

These days they have become one with the orcs of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain.

Su Tang was also visiting the grassland for the first time, and she played with her four children near the sheep.

Sibao was very interested in the lamb, sometimes biting its tail, sometimes its ear, but never using its teeth, only leaving its saliva.

When he got tired of playing, he found a ewe and lay on her back to take a nap.

Although they were sheep, the sheep taken out of the space were larger than ordinary cows, with adult ewes weighing four or five hundred pounds.

Sibao lay on Yangxiang's back, looking just like a little baby.

Su Tang also lay down next to her. The grass here wasn't tall, just above knee height. As soon as she lay down, the grass on the ground was pressed into a large "X" shape.

The wind brushed against my face, carrying the fragrance of fresh grass, blowing away the heat and bringing a touch of comfort.

Su Tang knew that this pleasant feeling wouldn't last long.

It's been almost a month since I left the farm and stayed at the Beast Mountain.

Her parents and brother must be worried sick at home. Now that Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain is safe for the time being, she and Sibao should prepare to go back.

After all, she came to Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain to treat Si Bao's throat.

Just then, the grass beside him sank in.

A tall figure sat down.

"A-Tang, you've helped me again, thank you."

When Su Tang opened her eyes, she saw Hu Shen's deep and beautiful eyes, like golden amber, shining brightly in the sunlight.

She was mesmerized for a moment.

"What are you thinking about?" Seeing Su Tang staring blankly at him, Hu Shen leaned down slightly, like a big cat, and instinctively probed her with his nose.

"I...I'm thinking..."

Seeing Hu Shen's handsome face zoomed in, Su Tang's ears burned a little.

She thought of the words she had just prepared in her mind, but now it felt as if her mouth was blocked by a wad of cotton, and she couldn't say them no matter what.

In a moment of impulsiveness, Su Tang blurted out:

"I want to go to the griffin tribe with you."

We've been out for so long anyway, a few more days won't make a difference.

Once Hu Shen returns safely from the Griffin Tribe, she can go home with peace of mind.

Thinking about it, Su Tang nodded affirmatively to herself, "Yes, I want to go to the Griffin Tribe with you."

Since I'm leaving anyway, I might as well be a little impulsive before I go.

She also has a spatial ability; if Hu Shen and the others don't have enough food on the road, she can find a way to get some food from the farm or ranch.

Hu Shen paused, his brows furrowing slightly, but his gaze remained gentle as he spoke.

"No, the griffins are cruel and bloodthirsty. You will be in danger if you go to the griffin tribe."

He couldn't let Ah Tang be in danger.

only……

Is Ah Tang saying this because she's worried about him?

A fleeting look of joy crossed Hu Shen's eyes.

"..."

Su Tang finally managed to speak up, but was rejected.

...

On the other side.

After inquiring about Su Tang's whereabouts, Hu Sha angrily returned to the cave.

That female had only just arrived at Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, yet everyone liked her so much; it was all thanks to Brother Tiger Shen.

She grew angrier the more she thought about it, and smashed everything in the cave.

"Damn old man, I was the one you raised, so why won't you let Brother Hu Shen mate with me!"

"You say you're doing this for my own good, but you're preventing Brother Hu Shen from liking me. I should have just let you die sooner..."

Hu Sha cursed and swore, as images from her memories surfaced in her mind.

If she had done that sooner, Tiger God might be her partner now.

Whenever she thought about this, she felt both hatred and regret.

It's too late to regret it now.

All she could do was make the female disappear.

Just then, the sound of rat-like creatures came from outside the cave.

"Husha".

Hu Sha snapped out of her daze in an instant and ran out of the cave in delight.

"Rat Brocade, did you catch that snake?"

Her gaze searched over Shu Jin, completely oblivious to Shu Jin's disheveled appearance and injuries.

All she could see were the venomous snakes she wanted.

Shu Jin naturally noticed Hu Sha's searching gaze. He was already used to it, but he never cared about these things before.

Seeing Hu Sha's current state, I feel utterly ridiculous.

He took the stone he was holding in his arms out.

The stone was hollowed out, with a small lid on top. If you opened it even a tiny bit, you could see smooth snakeskin inside, as red as fresh blood.
