Chapter 529 Xilan Meng's Lock
Due to the uneven terrain, the head rolled and stopped half a meter in front of Ye Luoxing. She was not afraid, but she felt complicated because the blisters on the head were not caused by wild beasts.
Yue Huang quietly took a step forward. It was unknown whether it was a coincidence or not, but his tall figure just blocked her view of the head.
Yue Huang frowned, looking at the bloody head, his eyes flickering. He raised his head and looked directly at the group of beasts in front of him: "What's going on?"
He was asking about the specific situation. The male beast in the lead replied, "When we passed the forest behind the mountains in the southeast, we happened to see a few wild beasts gnawing at Lev's head. I guess the Yan beast left not long ago, otherwise Lev would have been eaten up long ago. I have already told other teams nearby, and they have begun searching around there. I will come back to report."
Xilan Meng and Po Chen looked at Lev's head with cold faces. They could definitely see that Lev had suffered a lot.
What the Yan beast group did was undoubtedly a blatant threat to them. The beasts clenched their fists at their sides, and the anger in their hearts was probably like surging waves.
"They are too arrogant! They have killed so many orcs from the tribe, and now they are killing Lev, a level 7 warrior!"
"They also captured a lot of male beasts. I don't know if they are still alive! I must skin these beasts myself!"
"The females are still in their hands. They dared to throw Lev's body into the forest to provoke us. There is no guarantee that they will not harm the females!"
"The female companion beasts all felt unwell. The Yan beast group must have attacked the females..."
"Damn it! Where on earth are these filthy and disgusting things hiding..."
The strange beasts in front were indignant, and they kept venting their emotions. They were not afraid of facing the Yan beast group head-on, but the feeling of not being able to find an opponent made them angry and powerless. Although they believed that they would find the Yan beast's lair sooner or later, could their captured companions really wait that long?
They were worried and afraid of the death of their companions, and even more afraid of something happening to the females...
Pochen's face was terribly gloomy and his eyes never left Lev's head. After all, Lev was a beast of the same species as him.
Yue Huang asked coldly, "Is there no smell or trace left in the forest?"
The strange beast in front shook his head: "We have searched carefully, but found no scent or traces left by the Yan Beasts. This group of Yan Beasts obviously often do this kind of thing and have handled their traces very well. However, I suspect there is a witch doctor among the Yan Beast group, otherwise there would be no scent at all."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yue Huang and Xilan Meng looked at Ye Luoxing standing beside them with some doubt in their eyes.
Ye Luoxing knew what they wanted to ask by looking at their eyes. She nodded and said, "There may be a witch doctor in the Yan Beast Group, but he was also captured by the Yan Beast Group."
"They really have a witch doctor..." the strange beast in front repeated in a low voice, frowning.
Yue Huang thought for a while, then looked at the group of orcs in front of him and said, "Lev was captured by them three days ago, and three days later, they sent Lev's head to the forest in the southeast. The forest behind the mountains is not far from the Beast City, and they only took three days to come and go, which proves that their temporary nest is not too far from Yancheng."
"Could they have killed Lev on the way back to Chaoxue?" Pochen made a reasonable guess.
Yue Huang said, "I don't rule out this possibility, but it's too risky for them. Besides, the nearby forests are full of strange beasts recently. If they make the slightest noise, they will be noticed. So I prefer to believe that their nest is not far from here."
"And..." Yue Huang lowered his eyes and paused, obviously thinking of something.
"Since they came with a purpose, they can't sit still until we find them." This sentence was answered by Xilan Meng, with a gleam in his eyes. This time Lev's head was thrown in the nearby forest. In addition to the Yan beast group wanting to threaten them, perhaps the Yan beasts wanted to lead them somewhere else.
After all, if we want to exchange orcs, there must be a place...
However, Xilan Meng was stunned as soon as he finished saying this. He couldn't help but look at Ye Luoxing beside him, and his expression became much gentler.
I guess he was afraid that she would think too much about what he said...
"Xilan Meng, what do you think?" Po Chen took the initiative to ask Xilan Meng. He knew that Xilan Meng had more ideas.
"Yue's previous guess was correct. No matter what the purpose of this group of Yan beasts is, they will set up a temporary nest at the border of other territories. However, they may not live very far away. From what happened today, this possibility is more certain." Xilan Meng retracted his gaze and answered Pochen's words.
But Xilanmeng did not tell where he guessed. Instead, he picked up a thin wooden stick next to him and drew something on the ground.
The strange beasts all came forward to see Xilan Meng draw several mountain ranges on the ground. They were beasts from the West and had impressions of most of these places. However, the places Xilan Meng drew were not quite the same as what most beastmen had guessed.
Originally, the area near the sea in the east was the most suspicious, and it seems to be the same now, as it is not far from the Beast City.
However, what Xilan Meng drew was the area near the southern sea, which was too close to the open land in the south and was not suitable for the Yan beast group to escape after being discovered. Moreover, although there were many mountains there, they were not as dense as those in the east and north.
Xilan Meng observed the gazes of the beasts and slowly raised his lips. The smile was a little weird. The Yan beast group wanted to lead them to the east.
Unfortunately, he circled a mountain range on the map with a wooden stick. He liked this place better!
"You go out of the city and continue searching. Call back all the teams around the forest. Leave one team to search for possible traces along the area. As for the rest of the team, one part will search along the eastern sea area, and the other part - search the area circled by Xilan Meng!" Yue Huang gave the order quickly, his tone serious and it was obvious that he trusted Xilan Meng.
The group of strange beasts nodded in response, then transformed into beast forms one after another and flew out of the Beast City.
"You guys protect her, I'll go too!" Yue Huang instructed Xilan Meng and Po Chen.
"Eat well and rest well." This is what he said to Ye Luoxing. After giving all the instructions, he flapped his wings and flew out of the city.
Po Chen went to deal with the head, and now that Lev was dead, there were still some things he needed to take care of.
Ye Luoxing glanced at the picture on the ground and memorized it in her mind. She did not doubt Xilan Meng's intelligence...
"Luo..." Xilan Meng turned to her and was about to call her name, but saw a familiar figure not far away.
"High Priest?" He raised an eyebrow.
Ye Luoxing turned around and saw an elderly female standing at the door of the wooden house. She was leaning on a staff in her hand and her long white hair hung down behind her head.
She looked over here, as if looking at Ye Luoxing, and nodded at her.
