Chapter 374: Just like the scene on that day
The team quickly arrived at the outer city. Before they could fly towards the East Mountain Peak, Ye Luoxing and his companions saw Bei Yan and other orcs being blocked at the gate of the inner city by the beasts from the outer city. All the orcs raised their arms and shouted at them, as if they were ready to start a fight at any time.
One of the male beasts, with wounds on his face and red, wet eyes, shouted the loudest: "You bunch of southern beasts, quickly hand over our mates! If we don't see our mates today, no matter who you are, we will tear your faces apart!"
"Hurry up and call out our mates! Damn Flamingo Tribe, you disgusting beasts from the South, you should get out of the North!"
"Yes! Hand over your mate! Get out of the North!"
The male beasts, who watched helplessly as their mates were snatched away by the flamingos, were extremely angry at this moment. If they had not taken into account the power and status of the flamingos in the beast city, they would have already rushed up to fight with them. Without their mates, their remaining sanity was almost gone.
The injured female sat on her partner's back and glared at them: "You Flamingo Beasts hurt me and captured my friends. You are doing the same thing as the Hell Beasts in order to compete for the position of Beast King. Today, if you don't give me an explanation, don't even think about leaving the Beast City alive!"
With the female speaking, the orcs around them became more confident and stared at Bei Yan and the others angrily.
The female's partner said, "Hand over the flamingo beast that injured the female yesterday. We need to kill him first!"
They were talking to each other, and the situation below was in chaos. The entire city gate was blocked, and orcs kept pouring in from the road in the distance.
After all, this is the Beast City. A female beast was lost in the Beast City out of nowhere. This matter cannot be let go just like that...
Bei Yan and Ji Mu were both in human form sitting on the backs of their own kind. Probably because of the interception by the beasts, they had descended in altitude. At this moment, the Flamingo carrying Ji Mu flew forward. Ji Mu interrupted them in a deep voice and said, "We Flamingos will naturally admit what we have done, but no one should accuse us of things we haven't done. We kidnapped females in the Beast City? Don't you think this is ridiculous?"
Ji Mu usually doesn't look very serious, but he can still handle things at critical moments. He glanced coldly at the herd of beasts in front of him, and because of his pressure, many low-level beasts who were watching the fun lowered their heads to avoid meeting Ji Mu's eyes.
However, the partners who lost their females would not let it go. The tallest partner said coldly, "Humph! This is really ridiculous. We saw it with our own eyes. You are still trying to quibble? Are you saying there is something wrong with our eyes?"
"All the flamingo beasts in this Midnight City are from your tribe. If we only saw the orcish appearance, it would be fine and we could say that we smelled it wrong. But can other tribes also transform into flamingos?" Another companion beast took over. They saw it clearly, and yet they still dared to quibble.
Ji Mu frowned and glanced at them: "You can say you don't like us, but you can't think we are stupid. If we really want to hurt you and kidnap the female beast, would we transform into beasts in front of you? And leave you alive?"
"You——" The male beast opposite was so angry that he choked on his words. His eyes were full of bloodshot, as if he wanted to tear Ji Mu in half.
Qing Yang also came forward and said coldly: "Jimu is right. If it is really as you said, we would have killed you all a long time ago. After all, it is very easy to kill you!"
Qing Yang's temper had obviously been exhausted, so he was not polite in his words. He was even ready to beat up the orcs. He cursed in his heart: "These brainless idiots..."
The orcs around who were waiting for an explanation from the Flamingo Tribe felt that what Ji Mu and Qing Yang said made some sense. Although Qing Yang's words were unpleasant to the ear, they were telling the truth. In fact, there were many orcs in the outer city who were suspicious. After all, the Flamingo Tribe should not be so stupid.
However, at this moment, the injured female sat on her partner’s back and slowly walked forward. She said in a cold voice: “Of course you didn’t plan to kidnap the female at the beginning, nor did you plan to transform into a beast. It was just because my friend’s and my partner had a conflict with the patrol team, so you wanted to teach them a lesson like you did to those high-level beasts, and it just so happened that our two partners were sent out to do something…”
"You wanted to take the opportunity to kill them and warn us, but my friend and I suddenly wanted to go out and play for a while, and we ran into you who wanted to kill our partner. We protected our partner, but you couldn't defeat us, so you transformed into beasts. My friend accidentally saw your face wrapped in animal skins, and you kidnapped her..." The female recounted in detail what happened last night.
She was also injured while protecting her partner. These flamingos were really ruthless.
The female's words changed the attitude of the orcs who were watching. The female continued, "When you killed those high-level beasts during the day, you accidentally left feathers behind. At night, you showed up. Do you think that you only killed a few male beasts, and even if there is a discussion in the Beast City, it won't cause any trouble? You are so unscrupulous that you were exposed in the end. You even dared to kidnap female beasts!"
"Female, don't talk nonsense." Qing Yang couldn't help but retort her. Ji Mu raised his hand to stop Qing Yang, signaling him not to be impulsive.
The female was dissatisfied with Qing Yang's attitude and sneered, "Humph, the beasts in the outer city are not blind. In order to seize the position of beast king, you Flamingo tribe have repeatedly troubled the Bald Eagle tribe and killed many of their beastmen. Now you see that the Bald Eagle tribe has Helig, and Kati Qiao is the sister of your elder. You can't form a partnership with the elder. You have no chance of winning, so you come up with other ideas!"
Every word she said sounded reasonable, and the orcs nodded in agreement. After all, many orcs in the outer city felt that the Flamingo Tribe was extremely sinister.
In an instant, because of the female's continuous words, all the orcs watching in the outer city looked at Bei Yan and his group coldly. Although Bei Yan and his group were of high level, facing the siege and malice of so many orcs, they were still forced to the "edge of a desperate cliff". Those who didn't like them normally even wanted to take this opportunity to get their blood on them and expel them from the North.
Sheng Ye, who was always honest and calm, was a little flustered at this moment. He frowned and pursed his lips, but he couldn't win the argument with his ability to express himself.
The beasts forced them to retreat again and again. The companion beasts showed their sharp claws, and many beastmen who couldn't bear to watch also showed their claws and were ready to help. In this situation, a fight was inevitable. The flamingo in the front row kept retreating with Bei Yan on its back.
Bei Yan sat on the back of his tribe beast, his red eyes reflecting the malicious faces of the beastmen in the north. The bottom of his eyes seemed to be covered with an endless darkness. He didn't say a word, his face was calm and expressionless. It was also because of this that the beastmen didn't dare to act rashly...
"Bei, Yan..." Sheng Ye called out his name in a complicated tone, his eyes darkening.
Bei Yan recalled a distant memory. Many, many years ago, when the Flamingo tribe had just arrived in this beast city, the beasts from the north drove them away just like today...
