Chapter 205 The Lion Clan's Glorious Shadow
Huang Ying wasn't surprised to hear her name, after all, her beast husbands were scattered all over the country—
The central wolf clan, the eastern dragon clan, the western Crimson Flame Mountain, the southwestern desolate marshland, the southern Nether Marshland, and the northern fox clan.
And her brother from the northwest...
If you want to start a war in the beast world, just kidnap her.
Huang Ren wanted to use her life to incite conflict between different races, and then reap the benefits.
Little did he know that he was pushing the Lion Clan into the abyss, and he would never allow such a thing to happen.
After tying the string on the front of her hat, Huang Ying said, "Come with me."
"good."
Once the fur hat was put on, it concealed Shu Ning's wolf-like features.
Of course, it also blocked most of her view.
Her vision was limited to her feet and what lay behind him.
She wanted to take this opportunity to get a closer look at the surrounding route, so she reached up and lifted her hat a little.
What comes into view is a scene of life inside the lion clan.
There aren't many trees in this lion clan area; the ground is covered with small grasses trampled into hard surfaces, and the leaves aren't very lush.
Some orcs were just about to carry the animal hides they had worn out outside.
Some of the griffins have just returned.
Some of the lion-beastmen went out with baby griffins perched on their shoulders and tools in their hands.
Shu Ning was pondering how to find out about Jin Tong and the others.
If you were to ask him now whether the Lion Clan had captured anyone, he would definitely become suspicious.
"Where are they headed?" she asked, looking at the lion-beast not far away and the griffin flying behind it.
"Prey," Huangying said simply.
"They are so obedient, they follow me wherever I go."
"You lions live with griffins, but what if one day they no longer want to live with you?"
"No, it won't happen," Huangying said as she walked.
"Why are you so sure?" Shu Ning asked after hearing this.
“We’ve been their parents since they were born, and we’ve always taken care of them. We even took care of their parents, so naturally we won’t leave,” Huang Ying explained.
At that moment, a griffin in the sky noticed Huangying and the orcs following behind him.
Her lower half of her face was fair, unlike that of the female lion.
He just couldn't see the face clearly.
A short while later, the two arrived at a cave.
"Please sit here for a moment, I'll go get you something to eat," Huang Ying said indifferently.
"Don't run around, or I won't be able to save you," he warned.
"good."
Shu Ning looked around and found that the cave was decorated with a lot of animal bones, and even the chair in front of her was made of animal bones.
Moreover, it looks like it's been around for a while, not newly made; it's been worn smooth from being sat on.
She hesitated for a moment but then sat down.
"007, are you there?"
“Yes, host,” 007 replied.
"Host, what are you doing here with Huangying, the son of the Lion Clan leader?" 007 asked in surprise.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" Shu Ning was about to ask where Jin Tong and the others had gone when she heard 007's tone and asked first.
"Many people in the Lion Clan want to take your life, especially Huangren. He was the one who suggested taking your life to provoke conflict in the Beast World, ultimately reshuffling the deck and allowing the Lion Clan to sit at the pinnacle of the Beast World."
"No way!" Shu Ning stood up in shock after hearing this.
“Don’t worry, host. I checked his favorability rating towards you, it’s 9. He shouldn’t have any intention of killing you,” 007 said.
Hearing this, Shu Ning breathed a sigh of relief.
"Where did Yiyuan and the others go? Are they in any danger?"
Before 007 could answer, a male walked out of the cave, and Shu Ning looked at him warily.
At this moment, Huang Ying arrived with fresh beast meat. From a short distance away, she was seen getting up with a look of horror on her face.
"What's wrong?" He walked into the cave, placed the animal meat on the wooden table, and asked.
“You…” Shu Ning hesitated whether to tell her what she had just learned.
"What? Didn't I say I was hungry?" Huang Ying said as he took out his knife.
When she saw him reach for the knife at his waist, Shu Ning secretly took a deep breath and became alert, watching his movements closely.
If he were to do something, she was ready to run away at any moment.
Her gaze remained fixed on the knife until he cut the meat open and placed the slices in front of her.
"Why aren't you eating?" He then continued cutting the meat.
"Hmm... why are you so nice to me?" Shu Ning asked, observing the expression on his face.
Huang Ying paused in her hand that was cutting meat, then continued cutting after a moment.
"Giving you food means you're being nice to them?" he said as he cut the food. "It seems they don't treat you very well."
"No, that's not true." Shu Ning said, and then immediately realized what she meant.
"You know me?" She looked at him warily again.
Could it be that Jin Tong and the others have really been captured?
"Hmm." He placed the slices of meat he had cut back onto the table in front of her.
Looking at the untouched meat, he said, "It seems you're not really hungry."
"No, I..." Shu Ning was about to explain that she didn't eat meat when he interrupted her.
"You lied to me." His deep eyes turned gloomy, and he said coldly.
Shu Ning sensed the suppressed aura emanating from him. She looked again at the knife in his hand, and as he approached, she immediately spoke:
"Since you know me, you should know that our wolf clan no longer eats raw meat."
Huang Ying paused for a moment, then twitched his lips and chuckled silently, "I had forgotten."
"Not bad." He raised his voice slightly, wiped the knife on both sides with animal hide, and casually looked at the gleaming knife in his hand.
“I have indeed learned about the wolf clan. I know that you wolf clan learned to use fire, make pots, and use salt as a seasoning for roasting meat because of you, and you also learned to make soup and medicine because of you.”
"I also know about your situation with your beastmen."
Upon hearing this, Shu Ning frowned slightly.
Could it be that he really knows about their visit to the Lion Clan?
"What do you know?" she asked, feigning composure.
"Why should I tell you?" He finished speaking with a smirk, leaning closer to her with one hand on the table. "So you want to know?"
"Just treat it as a chat," Shu Ning nodded in agreement.
“Okay, your beastmen initially disliked your fat, ugly appearance and irritable personality, but then you suddenly seemed to have an epiphany.” He said, glancing at Shu Ning, before continuing.
"Suddenly, after marrying two beast husbands, one from the fox clan and the other from the dragon clan, she seemed to become a different person. She started to change herself, becoming thinner and more beautiful, and even her personality changed, becoming completely different from the one before."
"Oh, right, you can also conjure things out of thin air, right?" He gave her a fake smile.
Upon hearing this, alarm bells went off in Shu Ning's mind. Looking at him so close to her, she asked, "How...how do you know all this?"
It seemed the Lion Clan was more powerful than she had anticipated, which made her wonder if their plans had been exposed.
"How I know is none of your concern." Huang Ying stood up and sat down on the animal bone chair next to him. "In short, what you need to know is this."
“I won’t hurt you,” he said, his expression returning to its usual indifference.
