Chapter 99 Yiyuan Returns
"That's great!" Luo Ci exclaimed excitedly.
"Shu Ning, where is that place? Take us there quickly."
"There's a hidden cave in the back mountains of our wolf clan. Come with me."
Afterwards, the orcs went to get some animal skin bags and knives, and then went with Shu Ning and Xuan Lin to the back mountain of the wolf clan.
On the road.
"Shu Ning, how did you find these crystals?"
Yu Sheng, who was walking to Shu Ning's left, asked.
“Who is Shu Ning? That’s our Shu Ning!” Luo Ci, who was standing to Shu Ning’s right, said.
Xuan Lin, who was standing to Luo Ci's right, frowned slightly upon hearing his words.
What is their "Shu Ning"?
Later, as the group of orcs passed by the sacred pool not far away, they discovered that a wedding was being held there.
"Which female is getting married today?" Shu Ning asked.
"It's Mu Yu who's become partners with a Black Bear Beastman from the Black Bear Clan named... You Liao," Luo Ci whispered into Shu Ning's ear.
"I see. Then... that black bear beastman must have a high status in the black bear tribe, right?" Shu Ning asked.
"Indeed, it's not low; its status is second only to their leader."
"Cough cough..." Xuan Lin, who was standing to the side, pretended to cough to remind Luo Ci and Shu Ning when he saw them getting so close.
Seeing this, Luo Ci scratched his head sheepishly, then reluctantly walked to Xuan Lin's right, making room between him and Shu Ning.
Shu Ning was about to ask something when Xuan Lin interrupted her.
She looked up at Xuan Lin. This cold-blooded man only distrusted her, but considering he had so many subordinates who trusted her, she decided not to hold it against him.
She then moved closer to him, took his arm, and walked with him.
Let him give him some face in front of his subordinates.
Feeling his arm being linked with, Xuan Lin looked down at the female beside him. A slight glint appeared in his eyes; he seemed to like this feeling.
"Friendly reminder: Xuan Lin's affection level has increased by 2 points, and his current total affection level is 32. He is currently in the neutral stage."
Seeing that Shu Ning and their leader were finally making progress, the surrounding beastmen were all excited.
"Looks like they'll have little beastmen soon," Luo Ci gossiped to the beastman beside her.
Standing on the platform not far away, Mu Yu was already unhappy when she saw Shu Ning walking with Xuan Lin and his group of beastmen.
Then she saw Shu Ning reach out to take his arm, and she clenched her fists, her anger rising even higher.
"What's wrong?" You Liao asked after noticing her expression.
"It's nothing." She glanced at the black bear male beside her, whom she didn't like, and thought of Xuan Lin, which made her feel even more resentful.
She was determined to succeed. Even if Xuan Lin and Shu Ning didn't separate, she could still get him to do things for her, so she could see him every day.
Then she will have more opportunities to do the things she wants to do.
Meanwhile, Shu Ning and the others had already left the Sacred Pool, and they didn't see Mu Yu's gritted teeth.
As they passed through other places, the orcs standing guard by the roadside couldn't help but be curious when they saw the large and impressive group of orcs.
"Where are you going?" asked one of the orcs on guard duty.
He remembered that Luo Ci and the others weren't on their day off today.
"Hehe, I won't tell you," Luo Ci said boastfully.
"Stingy!" he said.
"It's nothing, our boss just took us out to have some fun," the orc behind added.
Fearing their itinerary would attract attention, they made up a random excuse.
The orc was unhappy to hear this.
They can go out and have fun on weekdays, he wants to too!
But their boss is too strict; he probably won't do that.
Shu Ning looked back at the orc who had suggested going out to play, worried that Mu Xia might scold them for doing so.
However, she should be fine once she explains the situation to Mu Xia.
Soon after, the group of orcs entered the forest behind the mountain. After passing through the forest, they arrived at the cave with vines growing in front of it.
"Is this really it?" an orc asked.
“No wonder we didn’t find this hole; it was so well hidden,” Yu Sheng said.
Shu Ning was also surprised that so many weeds had grown in just half a month.
She almost couldn't find this place.
After clearing away the overgrown weeds in front of the cave, the orcs followed Shu Ning and the others inside.
After the weeds at the entrance of the cave were cleared, the inside became much brighter.
Upon entering the cave, you can see the gems embedded in the rock walls.
"Is this the Mystic Crystal?" an orc asked.
They walked around, looking at the surroundings.
Normally, they wouldn't have thought anything of this, but when they heard Shu Ning say that it could cure critically ill patients, their opinion of these gems changed.
Shu Ning and Xuan Lin continued to lead the way inside. When she saw so many Xuan Crystals last time, she teleported back some of them. She had never been to the deeper parts of the cave before.
After passing through a narrow mountain cave passage, the group continued to walk deeper into the cave, where the space became larger and the number of mystic crystals increased.
Until finally, a huge space appeared before them.
"Wow!" The beastmen were shocked by the sight before them.
The cave walls are not only inlaid with gemstones, but there are also many piled up inside the cave.
These piles of gems, stacked together, refracted dazzling light from one another, and their shimmering glow could still be seen even in the empty, sunless cave.
They ran forward and looked around.
Xuan Lin's cold eyes flashed with surprise upon seeing the scene before him.
He picked up a crystal and examined it closely.
There seemed to be some kind of energy inside, and his eyes flickered slightly as he thought of Shu Ning's words.
"Take some back first," he said.
"yes."
Then the orcs filled their bags with gems.
After they came out, they covered the cave entrance with tree branches.
"We can't let anyone find out," Luo Ci said.
Shu Ning gave him a thumbs up.
Then the group of orcs carried the bulging animal skin bags back home.
"Boss, where are we taking these?" Yu Sheng asked.
"Go to the Holy Mother."
"Yes, boss."
In front of Muxia Cave —
Upon returning to the area where the wolf tribe lived, Shu Ning saw Yi Yuan standing in front of Mu Xia Cave.
"Yiyuan!" she went over to greet him.
"Where did you go?" He pulled Shu Ning, who had run over, into his arms and asked in a low voice.
Xuan Lin's eyes flashed with a complicated expression when he saw how intimate the two of them were.
They then went inside to find Mu Xia.
"We're going to find the Mystic Crystal." Shu Ning showed him the crystal in her hand.
"Oh? What's the use of this crystal?"
He took the crystal from Shu Ning's hand and examined it carefully.
It refracted a dazzling array of colors under the sunlight.
"This can help orcs recover from severe injuries. Even if they can't recover immediately, it can help them get through it," Shu Ning said.
"But it probably won't work for people who have been beheaded or have their hearts pierced," she added.
Upon hearing how magical this thing was, Yi Yuan examined it carefully once more.
Then he gently pressed his forehead against hers and said, "Ningning is so amazing, you were able to spot something like this."
"Friendly reminder: Yiyuan's favorability has increased by 1 point."
"By the way, Yiyuan, what brings you to see my mother?"
"I originally wanted to go find you, but I didn't see you this morning, so I came here to look for you."
"Oh...so what brings you here?"
"Ningning, this morning the orcs from the Viper Tribe reported that several orcs under Mu Yu's command have arrived in Youhuangze and are constantly lobbying there."
At this point, he looked into the distance, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and continued speaking to her with his head down.
"There are some things I need to go back and take care of."
