I knew there was a "but" to this kind of thing.
Si Yan asked curiously, "But what?"
Dong Chi thought for a moment and said, "At least the orcs in this area know that Dark Sun Lake is the only place where they can escape the blazing sun."
Si Yan immediately fell silent.
Dong Chi lowered his head slightly and said, "Dark Sun Lake isn't very big; it can't accommodate that many people. In the end, high-level orcs will definitely fight for it. We probably won't be able to get in."
Apart from Tyson, the Red Crystal Beastman whose whereabouts are unknown and who is somewhat powerful, the rest of this family consists mostly of women, children, and the sick and disabled. They have almost no fighting ability.
The children all frowned. Bei Ji looked up, looking somewhat aggrieved: "Mother... if I hadn't stopped you from mating with a male, wouldn't your chances of survival have been greater?"
Bei Ji became more and more aggrieved as she spoke, her big, watery eyes melting everyone's hearts.
"In the end, it's my selfishness. Mother should have thought of herself. Look at the other beast mothers, they have so many males. Why am I so petty?"
Si Yan patted Bei Ji's head: "When did I ever think I couldn't live?"
Bei Ji felt even more aggrieved: "Mother..."
Si Yan smiled helplessly and hugged him to comfort him.
Dong Chi remained silent, while Xi Qing was clearly also annoyed.
In the beast world, families are based on females.
For example, Xiong Rou's family is a family with Xiong Rou as the core unit.
Therefore, the core unit of their family is Si Yan.
However, this family is not very powerful, mainly because Si Yan only has one male, and they don't even know where this male is.
In other words, if they can't come up with a solution, their mother... will have difficulty surviving in the harsh environment of the beast world and may really face death.
Dong Chi pursed his lips.
He was angry with her, and he argued with her.
But he didn't want anything to actually happen to her.
So he began to get angry at the father beast that he didn't know where it was.
I don't want to acknowledge that father beast anymore.
The atmosphere was too tense, so Si Yan patted their heads again and said:
"There is hope only when you do things. If you don't do anything, there is no hope at all."
Since you all say that Darksun Lake is the hope for survival, let's set off for Darksun Lake tomorrow.
Don't be so discouraged. As long as we can reach Darksun Lake, Mother is still confident we can enter it.
Everything was damp and uncomfortable. Xi Qing and Bei Ji initially slept close to Si Yan. But after tossing and turning and unable to fall asleep, they each went to sleep in a corner.
Of these people, Si Yan slept the best.
The rain stopped the next morning, as expected.
The sun rose, and it appeared even larger. Now, even Xiqing and Beiji could see the sun grow bigger with the naked eye.
After the rain, the weather suddenly turned hot, and a large amount of water on the ground evaporated directly into water vapor, making it very unbearable.
Si Yan carried Dong Chi on her back, and the three children and one adult returned to the cave together. The cave had been washed away by a flash flood, and it was full of mud.
But now there's no time to take care of it.
Si Yan calmly said, "Let's set off. Let's get to Dark Sun Lake as soon as possible before it gets even hotter."
Each of them had a water bottle attached to their waist; the water in the bottles was not water from the ground, but water collected the night before.
They couldn't carry any more water.
Xi Qing struggled to lift her head and look at Si Yan: "But Mother, we don't know where Dark Sun Lake is."
Si Yan's heart skipped a beat.
No matter where you went in your past life, there were always small devices for coordinates and positioning.
So she always felt she could go wherever she wanted. She never imagined she wouldn't be able to find her way around.
Just then, Wolf Feng suddenly appeared behind them and said, "I know where Dark Sun Lake is."
The sudden intrusion and disturbance of a male brought a brief silence to the air.
The three cubs stared warily at Lang Feng, their faces fierce, but because of their young age, they appeared somewhat cute and fierce.
Si Yan certainly didn't like this male that the kids didn't like either, and deep down she also keenly sensed that he had ulterior motives.
However, if the High Priest's prediction is correct and the Fiery Day is fast approaching, then Dark Sun Lake will be the place where their family seeks a new life.
For the sake of her children, she needs to know the location of Dark Sun Lake.
Si Yan simply smiled and said, "Can you take us there?"
"Of course! We can set off right now," Lang Feng said excitedly.
The Eastern Crimson Serpent's eyes narrowed, its gaze sharp: "With the arrival of the Blazing Sun, it's clear that our family isn't the only one setting off. The Rock Village tribe will arrange for the females and cubs to go to Dark Sun Lake. Why are you in such a hurry to leave?!"
The Yanxiang tribe could not allow its people to perish; even if there was only a glimmer of hope, they would head to Dark Sun Lake.
Si Yan and the children can wait for the arrangements made by the Yanxiang tribe. Lang Feng must know this, but he wants to set off immediately.
His wolfish heart is blatantly obvious.
Wolf Feng was immediately embarrassed. He said, "I... I just want us to get to Dark Sun Lake as soon as possible."
Si Yan turned around and patted the children's heads, saying, "Then it's safest for us to follow the tribe."
Wolf Feng said weakly, "Alright."
Sure enough, not long after, gray wolves from the tribe came to notify Si Yan's family to gather.
In the center of the Rock Village tribe, a group of orcs had already gathered.
The village chief glanced at Si Yan and her family who had just arrived. A female wolf not far from the village chief also glanced at Si Yan.
The targeted gaze forced Si Yan to pay attention to the female beside the village chief. After noticing that the female looked somewhat similar to Tyson, she understood.
