Chapter 373: Sudden Incident, Chaos in the Outer City
Qingyang and the others believed that the Bald Eagle Tribe had resorted to some trickery, and the atmosphere in the cave became heavy.
"Could it be... done by the orcs from the West?" Lu Lan put forward another guess.
The orcs all looked at him. It was obvious that Lu Lan had deeper thoughts. He thought of possibilities that Chiyu and the others could not think of.
"The West?" Chiyu pondered.
"That's possible..." Ji Mu immediately understood what Lu Lan meant. It was indeed possible that the orcs from the west wanted to alienate them.
Sheng Ye's gaze shifted to Bei Yan, waiting for him to speak. Ye Luoxing also looked at Bei Yan, but he was lost in thought and said nothing.
Feng He did not participate in their affairs. After a long time, Sheng Ye spoke up: "Look, it’s time to go and meet them!"
Everyone's expression was serious, and only then did Bei Yan turn around and look at her.
"If you have things to do, go and do them. You don't have to stay here!" Ye Luoxing spoke immediately. She was not sure what was going on.
"No hurry..." Bei Yan didn't expect him to say that. He looked into the distance and said, "Let's wait and see."
He was calm and composed, rubbing his thumb over his index finger, and it was obvious that he had something in mind.
Everything in the cave remained the same as before, but the outer city was slowly in chaos. It was not until the afternoon that Bei Yan took Sheng Ye and the others out of the cave.
When he left, he said to Lu Lan, "Protect her well."
Lu Lan nodded in agreement. Feng He looked at their departing backs and felt more and more that this matter would not end so easily.
In the evening, when Ye Luoxing returned to the wooden cabin after a busy day, he heard another thing from Man Ling.
"Lolo, five or six high-level beasts died in the outer city today. Everyone says that it was done by the Flamingo tribe. Do you know what happened?" Man Ling was sitting in Ye Luoxing's wooden house. Lu Lan and the others were outside. Only Feng He and Di Kuli were there, so she leaned close to Ye Luoxing's ear and asked in a low voice.
Ye Luoxing raised an eyebrow in confusion: "Five or six?"
Man Ling nodded and said, "Yes, don't you know? Many high-level beasts selected in the Overlord Tournament died."
Ye Luoxing frowned slowly again.
Yue Shang was surprised: "There were only two during the day, how come there are more so soon?"
The death rate was too fast. Those were selected high-level beasts. There were too few orcs in the Midnight City that could kill them. Moreover, the incident happened during the day and spread. Logically, the defense of the outer city should have been stricter, and they themselves would have been careful. What was going on?
After Man Ling left, Ye Luoxing walked to the door and asked Lu Lan: "Is Bei Yan back?"
Lu Lan shook her head. Ye Luoxing couldn't help but feel uneasy. She began to wonder if it was related to Bei Yan and his men capturing the orcs hiding in the city in the west, so they launched a revenge. Was it the orcs in the west who did it? Or was it Kochas? Or was it another orc...
At this moment, in the big cave on the main mountain of the inner city, Bei Yan had just left with Sheng Ye and other orcs.
Kochas looked at Beiyan and the others as they left, his face darkened, and he was obviously not very happy...
Above an inconspicuous roof in the inner city.
A group of male orcs wrapped in animal skins were sitting or standing. The leading orc looked in the direction of the main peak and raised his lips: "The hunt has begun~"
The second day arrived quickly. In the early morning, Bei Yan met with Lu Lan. He took Ji Mu and Qing Yang away, and left Chi Yu to assist Lu Lan in protecting Ye Luoxing.
Ye Luoxing had just gotten up and finished washing when Man Ling rushed in in a hurry.
"Lolo! Something big happened in the outer city! A female was injured in the outer city last night, and the female with her was kidnapped!" Man Ling had finished her sentence before she got close, and she and Di Kuli all looked unhappy.
Ye Luoxing was shocked when he heard her words: "What? Who did it?"
Feng He and Xi Lin were so shocked that they stopped what they were doing. Feng He and Yue Shang couldn't help but feel worried.
Man Ling glanced at Xilin, then looked outside, and lowered his voice to Ye Luoxing, "It is said that they are the Flamingo tribe."
"How is that possible?" Xilin asked back, obviously not believing it. Then he realized that his attitude was wrong and immediately shut up.
Man Ling continued, "That's what the two female companion beasts said. They said they saw it clearly, it was the Flamingo Beast who did it, and now their companions can't be found. They are all worried and crazy. The outer city is in chaos right now, so you should... make your own plans."
Man Ling originally wanted to tell her not to leave the inner city, but later on, she herself began to doubt the Flamingo Tribe.
The Flamingo Tribe did not have a good reputation in Polar Night City, and Man Ling had discovered this. However, after thinking about it carefully, she felt that they did not need to do this. After all, they already had Luo Xing, and they had an absolute advantage. There was no need to cause trouble for themselves...
However, Man Ling was still alert in her heart. Even when Feng He swept out of the house, she couldn't help but hold Ye Luoxing's hand.
Xilin felt uneasy, afraid that Ye Luoxing might misunderstand something. Just at this moment, Lu Lan and the others walked in from outside the house, and Xilin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Lan looked at Ye Luoxing, hesitant to speak, and finally said: "Today...are you still going to Dongshan Peak?"
Ye Luoxing and Man Ling looked over together, and Ye Luoxing asked, "Where are Bei Yan and the others?"
Lu Lan replied: "Probably in the outer city."
Ye Luoxing replied firmly with one word: "Go!"
She packed up her things, picked up a fruit and took a bite, then walked outside.
Man Ling wanted to stop her but didn't. She just watched her back. Feng He followed closely.
After Ye Luoxing said hello to Man Ling, the few flamingos that were left behind carried her, Lu Lan and other animals to fly towards the outer city.
When passing above the main street, Ye Luoxing also heard the discussions coming from the herd of animals below.
"It's spreading like wildfire outside the city? Could it really be the work of the Flamingo Tribe?"
"I didn't really believe it at first, but so many orcs saw it, it couldn't be fake..."
"Yes, and the two female partners can't lie to us. They are injured!"
"But I always feel that this matter is not that simple..."
"What is there to doubt? I see that the selection of the Beast King is approaching, and most of the orcs in the city support the Bald Eagle Tribe, so they are probably anxious. I heard that the high-level beasts that died had conflicts with the Flamingo Beasts, and the two females didn't like the Flamingo Tribe either. Their partners even had conflicts with the patrol team..."
"Everyone knows the reputation of the Flamingo tribe in the city. Aren't they just a group of bad-tempered southern beasts who will kill orcs at any time? They also killed orcs from the Bald Eagle tribe in the Overlord Arena before, and their methods were very cruel..." Most of these orcs were on the side of the Bald Eagle, so what they said was very unpleasant.
Lu Lan and Chi Yu were very dissatisfied with the discussions below. Chi Yu almost rushed down to teach them a lesson, but Lu Lan held him back.
Lu Lan turned to Ye Luoxing worriedly and said, "A Luo, we won't do such a thing. We will prove it to you."
Ye Luoxing glanced at Lu Lan and didn't respond. Feng He responded, "Now the whole city is saying this. You better explain it clearly."
