Chapter 485: Conversation between Xilan Meng and Yue Huang
"Chief Lu Ge." Li Zhuo nodded and greeted Lu Ge politely.
"We are all beasts in Yancheng, so why should we differentiate between you and me? Elder Xilanmeng is injured and needs care from orcs." Li Zhuo said this neither humbly nor arrogantly. No matter how Lu Ge's expression changed, his expression remained normal.
Moreover, before Lu Ge could speak again, he looked around and said, "I will go back to take care of Elder Xilan Meng first."
After Li Zhuo finished speaking, he turned around and left. Although his attitude caused dissatisfaction among some orcs, they could not teach him a lesson.
Yue Huang withdrew his gaze indifferently, staring deeply at the bouquet in Ye Luoxing's arms.
He recalled the conversation he had had with Hirammon in the cave.
"When did you set your sights on her?" Yue Huang asked him at that time, because Xilan Meng's expression had been wrong since he first saw her, and Yue Huang could naturally see it. He could see that Xilan Meng was not only attracted to her for her beauty and strength, but because... she was Ye Luoxing.
Xilan Meng did not answer his specific time, but just said lightly: "She saved my life in Polar Night City."
Yue Huang naturally knew that she had saved his life. If it weren't for her, it would have been difficult for them to get him out of the city.
But unexpectedly, Xilan Meng seemed to know that Yue Huang was wrong. He lowered his eyes and said, "I didn't mean to leave the city."
Yue Huang looked at him in surprise, and saw a gentle smile on Xilan Meng's face, a smile that came from the bottom of his heart.
He was obviously recalling something. He narrated slowly, "When I first met her, it was on the competition stage on the top floor of Polar Night City. That time, she saved my life. If it weren't for her, I might not have waited for you to save me. After all... who can say for sure?"
Yue Huang also recalled something because of his words. He frowned slightly and saw Xilan Meng walk over and sit down.
His serious voice came: "Yue, your opponent has never been me. Even without me, there are still countless male beasts chasing her footsteps. The beasts in the north will not let it go. They will soon descend on the continent of the west. At that time, we will inevitably fight."
Over there, Yue Huang looked at the slightly weak figure beside the fire and walked slowly towards him. He knew what Xilan Meng said.
How could the beasts of the North give up on her? Moreover, they had captured so many female and male beasts of the North...
"So, do you want to compete with me?" Yue Huang's tall figure stopped beside him, and he looked down at Xilan Meng.
Xilan Meng smiled gently: "I don't want to compete with you, but how can I not be moved? You yourself...haven't you also fallen?"
The smile on Xilan Meng's lips was gentle and playful, which made Yue Huang freeze for two seconds.
"There's no point in you making things difficult for me." After all, the rhythm of his heartbeat was not under his control.
Xilan Meng turned to Yue Huang and asked him seriously, "Do you think a female like her could have only one partner?"
Yue Huang clenched his fists at his sides suddenly, but even if he didn't want to admit it, he knew that if an outstanding female like her really started to find a partner, it would be impossible for her to have only one companion beast by her side.
Xilan Meng retracted his gaze and continued slowly: "I know everything that happened in Polar Night City. Did you see the snow owl next to her? I heard that she protected him very much. The level of the snow owl was not low, but even with her own strength and the snow owl, it was difficult to guarantee her own safety. First it was the Yan Beast, and then it was us. She was still kidnapped alone..."
"You, I and that snowy owl are different." Yue Huang rarely responded.
Xilan Meng shook his head and laughed: "No, it's the same. Even if it's you, even if it's almost impossible to find your opponent in the entire Orc Continent, you have to admit that it's difficult for you to 'protect' her with your own strength, because her brilliance is far beyond the scope of your protection."
"Besides, she is willing to be protected by that snowy owl. Is she willing to be protected by you?" Xilan Meng asked with a smile, with some self-mockery in her tone. She didn't need Yue Huang's protection, she didn't need Yan Cheng's protection, and she didn't need his protection either.
Xilan Meng's questioning made Yue Huang's entire body tense, and her heart seemed to skip a beat. Yes, not only did she not want their protection, but she also wanted to escape from here all the time...
"That snowy owl..." Yue Huang almost gritted his teeth as he spat out these words. Perhaps his focus should not have been on Bei Yan from the beginning.
"She cares about the Snow Owl." Xilan Meng followed up with this sentence, and said, "Even more than Bei Yan and the others."
Xilan Meng's eyes fell on the burning fire: "Although the snow owl was seriously injured, it was not fatal. He will soon chase to the West Land, and Bei Yan and the others may come with him... By then..."
"By then..." Xilan Meng paused, "How are you going to deal with it? Beiyan is not Kochas. She is very good to the snowy owl, and she also has a good impression of Beiyan and his people. Otherwise, she would not agree to form an alliance with them and would not help the Flamingo tribe sit on the throne. Even if she wants to leave Polar Night City in the end, her impression of Beiyan and his people must be much better than her impression of us..."
"She won't kill Bei Yan and the others, but she - might kill us without hesitation." Xilan Meng's eyes became sharper.
At this moment, the flames in the cave started to jump wildly, and the firewood burned even more fiercely. Xilan Meng's gentle aura changed, becoming chilling, as if he thought of those faces in the north. His hands grabbed their throats in the void...
Yue Huang was silent. No orc in Yancheng doubted Xilan Meng's strength, even though he was captured for protecting the group of strange beasts.
Xilan Meng's cunning and intelligence are no less than Yue Huang's, and sometimes he is even calmer than Yue Huang...
"Do you have an idea?" Yue Huang asked him.
Xilan Meng looked at him with a smile: "We still have time to discuss before they arrive."
Xilan Meng's attitude and purpose were clear. The burning fire illuminated two figures with completely different temperaments. As they stared at each other in silence, it was clear that they had reached a consensus in their hearts...
The sound of gurgling water and her voice brought him back from his memories. Yue Huang saw that Ye Luoxing was still asking Pochen and the others various questions.
He glanced at the flowers in her arms again, the emotion in his eyes unclear...
Before dusk, Ye Luoxing sat by the river, recording the information of Pochen and the others. After putting away the notebook, she took advantage of Pochen's inattention and attacked him again. Pochen still dodged quickly. He frowned because she always attacked him, feeling puzzled.
But this time, Ye Luoxing still didn't fight with him for too long. After almost reaching a certain point, she stopped.
She turned and left, "Okay, let's go."
Po Chen looked at her slowly receding back, his brows furrowed even tighter.
