As soon as he arrived, Huang Yu saw Ping An practicing new witchcraft inside. His serious expression made his heart ache.

They're both little kids, but while the other kids are running around happily, Ping An has to be locked up in this high-walled backyard and keep studying.

Suddenly noticing something amiss, Ping An turned around abruptly and saw Huang Yu standing not far away.

She ran over excitedly in an instant: "Father, why are you here? Where is Mother?"

The tiny, soft, and cuddly little girl immediately nestled into his arms, melting Huang Yu's heart.

He picked her up and held her in his arms: "I came to see you. Mother is packing things at home. We're going to the Eagle Clan tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ping'an pouted and said, "Ah~ Father, I want to go too!"

"I haven't seen my little brother Wuyou in a long time, and also my little sister Heqing and little brother Ziye. I want to play with them."

Huang Yu also wanted her to go, but the Beast God wouldn't allow it. He couldn't take her away on his own. If she disappeared safely for even a day, the Beast God would find out.

Moreover, he knew very well that he was safest only by the side of the Beast God.

He ruffled her hair and said, "Ping An, be good. We'll bring you a present when your father and mother come back."

Ping An lowered his head, his face full of displeasure.

She didn't understand why other children could live with their parents, but she couldn't. She wasn't without parents.

Watching Huang Yu's departing figure, she instantly had an idea. She pretended to yawn, glanced at the guards beside her, and left wearily.

"I'm so tired, I'm sleepy."

night.

You Ran stood at the door and saw Huang Yu return alone. She felt very disappointed, even though this wasn't the first time something like this had happened.

But she still felt terrible, and in order not to make Huang Yu feel bad too, she forced a smile.

"I'm back."

The two of them tacitly avoided mentioning the matter. After returning home and having dinner, they went to their room early to pack their things.

This wasn't their first time traveling far from home, and everyone packed their belongings with practiced ease.

Xuan Feng brought over some linen clothes: "You Ran, I can't leave for now. You need to take good care of yourself on the road."

You Ran knew he had his own things to do, after all, Eileen was still in Beast King City and hadn't left, so they had to be on guard.

As for Long Yin, it was already said that he couldn't go.

Therefore, only Huang Yu and Wen E accompanied her on this trip.

There are also Dali and his partner, Algae, among others.

The weather was exceptionally nice today. I sat leisurely on Huang Yu's back, and I even started to sweat a little from the sun.

I simply took out a bamboo hat and put it on my head, which made me feel much more comfortable.

After crossing mountain range after mountain, the vast Beast King City disappeared behind us.

Dali and the algae were very excited. They had always been growing flowers and grass in Beast King City, and this was the first time they had gone to such a far place.

Moreover, they brought wheat seeds that they had grown themselves.

The princess told them that they would plant wheat all over the orc continent in suitable places, so that every orc could have enough to eat and wear warm animal skins in the winter.

They feel very proud that they have contributed to such a grand vision!

Just then, a small golden bird suddenly flew out from the forest below.

Mu Youran looked down and felt a surge of joy, but soon her face was filled with worry.

Because she saw the package on Ping An's back, but there were no other orcs following behind.

At this moment, Huang Yu also spotted her and immediately flew over. The two of them hovered in the air.

Huang Yu's expression wasn't good; clearly, she had snuck out!

But I still decided to ask her, just in case it wasn't true.

"Ping An, what are you doing here?"

Mu Youran asked worriedly, "Why are you alone? Where are the guards?"

Ping An landed directly on Huang Yu's back, feeling a little guilty: "I snuck out, the Beast God doesn't know."

Upon hearing this, Mu Youran sighed deeply, unsure whether it was a good or bad thing.

If we send her back now, we can still have time, but she really wants to spend time with Ping An.

She also harbored some selfish motives, but she was afraid that the Beast God would be angry, after all, she was the one who saved Ping An's life.

Although the Beast Goddess was strict with Heian, her love and care for Heian was no less.

Seeking Huang Yu's opinion: "Huang Yu, why don't we take him with us? We can send someone back to deliver a message."

Isn't You Ran's thought also Huang Yu's?

"Alright, but Ping An, you can't run around this time!"

"Uh-huh!"

Overwhelmed with excitement, Xiao Ping'an collapsed into You Ran's arms, clinging to her tightly and refusing to let go.

She had been waiting for a long time to meet her parents here.

Huang Yu then sent a falcon beastman back to report the news.

Upon hearing this news, the Beast God was filled with rage, wishing he could tear the messenger, the Falcon Beastman, apart alive.

How long have they been gone?

The Falcon Beastman was terrified; it was the first time he had spoken to the Beast God so closely, face to face.

"We set off as soon as it was light!"

Upon hearing this answer, the Beast God's heart sank to the bottom. He slowly sat back down in his chair, staring blankly at the sky that was already getting dark.

"Could this be fate?"

Perhaps this really is fate.

Everything is predestined!

No matter how hard she tries to protect them, they will eventually reach their predetermined end.

Seeing the Beast God so distraught, the Falcon Beastman grew increasingly frightened.

Mustering his courage, he spoke up: "Beast God, shall we send someone to pursue them now?"

The Beast God stared ahead without moving for a long while before finally speaking.

"No."

Perhaps no matter how much she tried to protect herself, she couldn't stop what was about to happen.
