Before Nana could answer, Luce, who was eavesdropping outside the cave, was already terrified.
Sanqiao had just asked him to go and support the elders, but he didn't dare to go out and confront the Elephant Tribe, so he kept hiding outside Sanqiao's cave.
Not long after, he saw Sanqiao sneaking out of the cave with a large bundle on his back.
Luce followed behind him, listening to their entire conversation.
what to do!
Luce's hand, which was pressed against the mountain wall, tightened nervously.
If the chieftain leaves, the tribe will truly be finished, and I will surely become a slave or be eaten! We must find a way to keep Sanqiao here.
Just then, Nana softened. After thinking for a moment, she said to Sanqiao, "You can leave, but you have to take my father with you."
When Luce heard what Nana said outside the cave, his eyes lit up and he immediately went to find Xing Ji.
Time passed slowly, and Sanqiao grew increasingly anxious.
With his current abilities, he can at most protect Nana and take Xingji with him; they definitely won't be able to break through smoothly.
Sanqiao rolled his eyes and said, "Mother just died, Father definitely won't want to leave the tribe. If we forcibly take him away, he will definitely be angry."
"But……"
"No buts." Mitsuhashi pulled Nana away, saying, "Let's go quickly."
They had just reached the door when they ran into Xing Ji, who had been brought there by Lu Si.
Seeing Sanqiao pulling Nana away as they tried to escape, Xingji, who had just overheard Lu Si's exaggerated words, punched Sanqiao hard without saying a word: "Sanqiao, how can you run away! You are the clan leader."
With his injuries compounded, Mitsuhashi's complexion worsened: "Why can't I run? I'm about to die."
Xing Ji slapped him hard again and blocked their way: "What nonsense are you spouting? The tribe won't be finished! And you're not allowed to take Nana away!"
Seeing that his path was blocked, Sanqiao took a deep breath and brought out the excuse he had just given Nana again: "Father, the tribe is now surrounded. I need to take Nana to a safe place. Do you want to see Nana die in the tribe like Mother?"
Upon hearing Sanqiao mention Nana's mother, Xing Ji fell silent.
Because their cave was near the entrance to the tribe, Nana's mother was murdered on the first day the elephant tribe broke into the tribe.
His closest relative was Nana, and of course he hoped that Nana could live.
Sanqiao persisted, saying, "Father, believe me, as long as I get Nana to a safe place, I will definitely come back."
Luce rushed in from outside and said, "Chieftain, let me send Nana away. I'm sure I can get her out of here. You have to stay in the tribe. With you here, we can maintain our morale!"
“Yes.” Seeing Luce, Xing Ji also said, “Why don’t we let Luce take Nana away?”
"No!" Mitsuhashi glared fiercely at Luce: "Luce's strength is simply not enough to break through."
While the group was still arguing, another long elephant bell rang out from outside.
Nana trembled and quickly grabbed Xing Ji's hand: "Father, I'm so scared. Let's go quickly, okay? Let's go together."
Faced with her daughter's plea, Xing Ji shook her head: "No, I can't leave."
He was, after all, the former chieftain, and he had dedicated his life to the tribe. How could he leave now?
Moreover, his partner is already dead, and he wants to stay to avenge her and protect the tribe!
Thinking of this, Xing Ji grabbed Nana and pushed her out of the cave: "Nana, go with Sanqiao, you must escape."
"Father!"
The sound of the elephants trampling seemed to be right next to his ears. Xing Ji looked at Nana, whose face had turned pale, and once again made up his mind to push her away: "Nana, in my whole life, besides you and your mother, there is only the tribe. Now that your mother is gone, you can escape if you want, but I must stay here."
Xing Ji remained steadfast.
At this moment, the elephant tribe had broken through the final obstacle and was running in this direction.
Seeing this, Mitsuhashi pulled Nana's hand forcefully: "Nana, the elephant tribe is here, let's go quickly."
"Father."
Xing Ji also pushed her: "Let's go!"
Mitsuhashi transformed into his beast form, hoisted Nana onto his back, and quickly fled.
Seeing this, Luce quickly transformed into his beast form and followed behind Sanqiao: "Chieftain, I'll protect Nana with you."
He was so fast that Xing Ji couldn't stop him.
At this moment, the elephant tribe had arrived. Xing Ji transformed into his beast form, roared, and leaped into the battle.
Upon hearing the news of the Tiger Clan Chief's escape, Hong Yan burst into laughter: "That Sanqiao is utterly useless! As the clan chief, he actually deserted!"
The chieftain is a symbol of a tribe's strength. Now that the chieftain has fled, the conquest of the White Tiger tribe is just around the corner.
He ordered the orcs behind him, "Go, send another team to capture Sanqiao, dead or alive. I want to roast him and throw him into the forest to feed the wild beasts!"
"yes."
The Elephant Clan pursued Sanqiao relentlessly, while Hongyan climbed to a high place, calmly spreading the news that their chieftain had escaped across the battlefield.
Without their chieftain, the Tiger Clan's morale collapsed. They had been putting up a last-ditch effort, but almost instantly their taut nerves snapped, and the battle began to show signs of defeat.
...
Shunfeng ran tirelessly through the forest for almost five days.
These past few days, he hasn't dared to rest. He's been relying on drinking blood and eating raw meat to replenish his strength. When he's really too sleepy, he closes his eyes for a while to keep going.
On the morning of the seventh day, he finally reached the edge of the forest.
