Chapter 57 Rainy Night
"Which direction did he go? I'll go stop him." Luo Ci was about to get up when she suddenly remembered something and sat back down.
"Don't be impulsive," Mu Ran said.
"Sorry, Anliang, I almost exposed you," Luo Ci said with an embarrassed smile.
"So what should we do now? Just let her do as she pleases?"
"Shu Ning, what do you think we should do?" An Liang looked at her.
The other two also turned their gazes toward her.
Seeing that they were all waiting for her answer, Shu Ning analyzed—
"First of all, we can't let them know that we already know what they're going to do, otherwise we'll find out as soon as they finish speaking, and Anliang will be highly suspicious."
"Yes." The other three nodded.
“If her target is Xuan Lin, then Luo Ci, you will start following him and be wary of the other beastmen around him.”
“Okay,” Luo Ci replied.
“If his target isn’t Xuan Lin, is he going to keep following him? He’s on duty tonight,” An Liang said.
“That’s right, her target might not necessarily be Xuan Lin. She has so many beast husbands, it’s hard to say it isn’t…” Mu Ran said.
“Alright, Anliang, go back and keep an eye on Muyu. If it’s not for Xuanlin, but for their beast husbands, then we don’t need to keep watching her.”
"Okay, I'll go back now." Anliang said and left.
"Do I still need to go?" Luo Ci asked.
"No need, you should go back and get some rest so you're well-rested for your shift," Shu Ning said.
"Okay." Luo Ci said and left.
"I'll wait here for his news," Mu Ran said.
“Mm,” Shu Ning replied.
While they were waiting, people from the Xuanmo Clan arrived.
Wolf Clan Entrance—
"Is Xuanmo really here?" Wu Ling asked the team leader, Black Snake, who was standing to the side.
“Absolutely true, Lady Wuling,” the leader, Black Serpent, replied.
“Take me to him.”
"yes."
"No entry." The wolf guards blocked their way.
"How dare you! You dare to stop our Lady Wuling!" the leader, Black Serpent, said arrogantly.
"No matter what kind of adult you are, those from the Black Serpent Clan are not allowed in," said the wolf guard.
"this……"
The team leader, Black Snake, looked embarrassed and glanced at Wu Ling beside him.
“Who said the Black Serpent Clan isn’t allowed in? Aren’t there Black Serpent Clan members in your Wolf Clan?” Wu Ling said.
The wolf guards were stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening.
“That’s our Holy Mother’s son-in-law. No other Black Serpent Clan beastman is allowed to enter.”
Upon hearing this, Wu Ling instantly lost her composure and exclaimed excitedly, "What did you say?! What is Xuan Mo to you?"
The wolf guards ignored the madwoman and did not respond.
Seeing that he did not answer, Wu Ling instantly transformed into her original form and used her snake tail to strangle him.
"Speak now! Or don't blame me for being impolite!"
Upon seeing this, another guard immediately ran over, transformed back into his original form, and said, "Don't do anything rash, or I'll make sure you don't leave here alive!"
"Hmph, do you think I'm afraid?"
"I'll talk, I'll talk..." The guard, who was being strangled, was almost unable to breathe.
Only after hearing this did she relax a little.
"What are we afraid of them for?" another guard said to him.
"I'm the one being strangled, why don't you try it?" He rolled his eyes at the guard next to him.
"Speak," Wu Ling said impatiently.
“Xuanmo is our Holy Mother’s…son-in-law,” he said, panting.
"Impossible!" she exclaimed in disbelief.
"Let us in, I need to find Xuanmo."
"No, the Black Serpent Clan orcs are not allowed in," the guard said again.
Seeing their persistence, and noticing the arrival of many wolf guards behind them, she immediately changed her attitude.
"I am a member of the Xuanmo family. Do you even want to obstruct the family of your Holy Consort's son-in-law?"
The two guards looked at each other in bewilderment upon hearing this.
"What is your relationship to him?" one of the guards asked.
"His quasi-female."
"this……"
"Wait here, allow me to inform him." With that, he went back to find his superior.
After the higher-ups found out, they told Mu Xia about it.
A moment later, the guard returned.
"Go inside," he said irritably.
"Wait, only you are allowed in," he said, pointing at her.
Wu Ling rolled her eyes, then followed the servants inside alone.
A moment later.
Muxia Cave Mansion —
"So it was you who caused trouble at the entrance to my wolf clan's territory?" Mu Xia sized her up and questioned her.
“Who told you not to let us in?” she said.
"It's a rule of our wolf clan not to let outsiders in. What, doesn't your black snake clan have this rule?"
"I..." Wu Ling was speechless after being rebuked by her.
"What brings you here to see Xuanmo?" Mu Xia asked.
"I'm taking Xuanmo back!" she said arrogantly.
“Xuanmo is already a member of our wolf clan. I advise you to give up this idea.”
“Xuanmo is my prospective beast husband, and I have the right to take him away,” Wu Ling said.
"Potential beast husband? He's already our wolf clan's son-in-law, that title no longer applies to you."
"Someone, see the guest out," she said.
"Wait! Is this how you treat your guests? I'm still his cousin, after all," Wu Ling said anxiously as the servant entered.
"Besides, it's getting dark outside and it's going to rain again. Are you really planning to kick me out of the wolf clan? Aren't you afraid of what other tribes will think of you for mistreating your in-laws?"
Upon hearing that she was Xuanmo's cousin, Muxia frowned.
"Then I'll let you stay for the night, but you should leave early tomorrow morning."
"Thank you!" she said happily, relieved that she could finally stay.
"I want to stay at Xuanmo's place!"
"No," Mu Xia said.
"Then arrange for me a place to stay that is closest to his cave."
...
Shu Ning Cave —
"Shu Ning, which of your several beast husbands do you like the most?" Mu Ran asked gossipingly.
Shu Ning froze and glanced at him.
"Is he our boss?" He looked at her expectantly.
Shu Ning smiled shyly and nodded.
"That's great! I told you it was our boss, but Luo Ci didn't believe me. She insisted that their boss would be number one in your heart from now on."
"Hehehe..." Shu Ning laughed.
"Bang bang bang..."
Hearing the knocking at the door, Mu Ran went to open it.
"How is it?" he asked after seeing Anliang.
"She prepared it for her beastly husband."
"Are you sure?" Mu Ran asked.
"Um."
"You saw it?"
"Nonsense, didn't you see I was so sure?" Anliang said.
"That's good." Mu Ran was finally relieved to hear his affirmative answer.
"Shu Ning, since she's not giving it to Xuan Lin, let's not bother her for now."
"Yes, thank you for your hard work today."
"What are you saying? We brothers will have to rely on you in the future."
"They're gone."
"Okay, take care."
Not long after seeing them off, Shu Ning decided to go see Jin Tong that night.
On the road, the wind picked up and grew stronger, the sky grew darker and darker, accompanied by thunder.
She was almost blown over.
Just as they were about to reach the entrance of the Ember Eye Cave, a sudden downpour began.
She rushed inside.
"Jin Tong?"
