Chapter 86 Conspiracy as the Real Meaning
Although all signs point to her, there is still no conclusive evidence to prove that she ordered someone else to do it.
Nothing is absolute.
She observed Mu Yu's face, trying to glean something from her subtle expressions.
Mu Yu started paying attention to Yan and Shu Ning from the moment they appeared.
She never expected that Shu Ning, a female, would dare to travel far alone. Even she herself had never dared to travel far alone as a female.
And she even brought back the beastly husband who had left her long ago.
To her surprise, her beast husband was actually the leader of the Viper Tribe in the Desolate Swamp.
They were really lucky; the beastman they picked up by chance turned out to be a tribal chief.
But didn't he used to hate Shu Ning too? He was so angry with her that he abandoned her.
But when she thought about the dramatic changes that had taken place in Shu Ning recently, her eyes instantly darkened.
No wonder he came back with her.
The desolate marshland... she hasn't even reached there yet.
Ha, I didn't expect her to discover that place first.
To her surprise, she managed to return unharmed after traveling so far.
It seems she also plans to win over the orcs over there; she's heard there's also the Turban Tribe, one of the most powerful tribes in the Desolate Wasteland...
After a year, I heard that they are about to defeat the Viper Tribe and become the most powerful tribe in the Desolate Marsh.
There was also the Crimson Flame Tiger Beastman Nightmare next to her; she had sent people to propose marriage to him many times, but he had refused each time.
He even took his subordinates to their Crimson Flame Mountain to offer to be his females, but they were driven out by the Crimson Flame Tiger Beastmen before they even entered their territory.
I once heard her jackal beast husband say that a female from their tribe had successfully entered the Crimson Flame Tiger tribe and almost managed to occupy the Crimson Flame Mountain area.
Unfortunately, it was just a little short, and it cost the lives of hundreds of animals.
If they had succeeded back then, the Crimson Tiger Orcs would probably be on her side now.
Unexpectedly, her sister Shu Ning, who is the same age as her, beat her to it.
Now, she not only has the help of the Crimson Tiger tribe, but she has also brought them back.
On the surface, they were treating them to hospitality out of gratitude, but in reality, they just wanted to show off their power to her.
She won't fall for that so easily.
Thinking about this, she worried that the wolf tribe might have more orcs supporting her, since she had the powerful Crimson Tiger tribe behind her.
However, they are not together yet; they are just helping each other. Since it hasn't come to the final step, there is still a chance to salvage the situation.
It seems she has to do something.
Thinking of the jackal beastmen, she leaned close to the jackal beastman beside her and whispered, "You don't have any dirt on yourselves, do you?"
"Don't worry, my men handled the entire handover with your sister; we didn't do anything."
He glanced at her so-called sister and said, "Even if there's something on us, it has nothing to do with us."
Mu Yu glanced at her transparent-looking younger sister, Xing Yu.
She was the daughter of Mu Xia's fourth beast husband, born by accident to another female. Her mother died shortly after her birth.
Although Mu Xia accepted this daughter, she didn't take good care of her usually.
Her "younger sister" had always envied her for her good looks since she was a child, and always liked to follow her around. She even wanted to have the same name as her, taking her mother's surname.
"That's good." She curled her lips into a smile, a hint of sarcasm flashing in her eyes.
What she didn't expect was that Xingyu would be so considerate of her. Knowing that she hated Shu Ning, she actually sent people to ambush her back in the Wolf Clan territory.
She herself never intended to take Shu Ning's life.
That's really... even more ruthless than her.
It seems she needs to be careful around her younger sister.
What she couldn't understand was that even though Xingyu had sent so many jackal beastmen to guard the area, Shu Ning still managed to escape.
They were actually saved by the Crimson Flame Tiger Beastman Nightmare. Nightmare has always disliked contact with females, so when did they become so close?
Thinking about this, a strange sense of irritation welled up inside her.
She had tried everything to get him to come back, but nothing worked. She never expected that Shu Ning would bring him back so easily after going on a long trip.
At this moment, Shu Ning looked at Mu Yu's ever-changing expression, which was hard to fathom, but she guessed that the appearance of the Nightmare would make her take some action.
Then, she sprinkled seasoning on the grilled meat, got up and walked to Nightmare's side, "Nightmare, try this."
Yan looked up at her, and was about to take the roast meat from her hand, but her eyes followed the direction she was secretly looking and went to Mu Yu.
He instantly understood what was going on.
The female had tried to contact him several times, but he had chased her away each time.
A slight smile played on his lips as he took the grilled meat and pulled her into his arms. He lowered his head, getting very close to her, and said in a deep, magnetic voice, "What, trying to use me?"
Shu Ning looked at him in surprise, not expecting that he had guessed her thoughts.
"You...you're talking nonsense," she said softly.
"I've been cooperating with you so much, and you still say I'm talking nonsense, huh?" A dangerous glint flashed in his eyes, but he quickly returned to normal.
"Okay, I'm just using you. You can tell them now." Seeing his attitude, Shu Ning felt it was better to be honest with him.
Only sincerity can be reciprocated.
"Then tell me, why did you take advantage of me?"
“I suspect she’s the one who intercepted me tonight.” Shu Ning’s eyes darted towards Mu Yu.
"So you want to deliberately get close to me so that she can't hold back and reveals her weakness."
"Hmm..." Shu Ning looked at the incredibly handsome face above her, so close to her, and couldn't help but swallow.
Mo Li suddenly noticed his female being pressed so close to him, a sinister glint flashed in his eyes, and he pulled her close.
Shu Ning was discussing things with Yan just a second ago, but unexpectedly, she ended up in Mo Li's arms the next second.
"Mo Li?" She looked at him with some surprise.
"What? You've abandoned your beastmen and run off to other males, huh?" He stared at her with his handsome eyes, a hint of danger flashing in them.
"How could that be..." Shu Ning laughed awkwardly, reaching out to hug his back and patting it.
"How could I abandon you? I just found Yiyuan." She looked at him and said sincerely.
"But we were attacked by jackals on our way back, so we should thank him properly."
Upon hearing this, Mo Li's expression softened slightly, but then a shadow of gloom flashed across her eyes again.
"If you're going to thank him, then thank him. But why are you burrowing into his arms, hmm?"
Mo Li persisted, asking why he hadn't seen her being pulled into Yan's arms.
"Heaven and earth can bear witness, I didn't deliberately snuggle into his arms, he pulled me in. Wasn't it Mo Li who came to my rescue?" She leaned her head against him, blinking at him.
Yi Yuan, who was standing next to her, reached out and lifted Shu Ning from Mo Li's arms, placing her in his own.
"Your eyes really need to be treated. It was clearly that shameless tiger who pulled our Ningning into his arms."
