After hearing what their tribesmen said, Meng Yuqing and Xuan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. They were afraid that something might happen in Qingshan City.
Now that they knew that Qingshan City was not only intact but also had dealt a terrible blow to the orcs from the north, the two of them finally relaxed a little.
Meng Yuqing patted Xuan on the back and said, "Let's go into the city and find the clan leader to tell him about our next plan."
Xuan nodded and walked towards Qingshan City.
The flying orcs were flying low over them. When they heard Meng Yuqing's words, they said, "Chief, he's not in the city right now."
Xuan turned around, looked at the flying orc who had spoken, and asked, "Where did the father beast go?"
There was a hint of nervousness in his tone. It was snowing at its heaviest now, and he couldn't imagine where Xia was going at this time.
The flying orc replied, "Didn't the orcs from the north retreat? The clan leader didn't want them to get away like that. He's already ambushed them while they're in a bad state."
The young flying orc who had just plunged into the snow snorted coldly, "They come and go as they please, and they treat us like their backyard."
Meng Yuqing: “…”
I always feel like he has led the entire Qingshan City astray.
The older flying orc smiled upon hearing the younger orc's words and continued, "They're quite a few, and while they're not very united, they're all very strong. We've finally worn them down to the point where they're almost exhausted. The clan leader naturally won't let them leave like this. They'll return to the north to recuperate and come back again."
"We've already captured nearly a thousand of them. They're currently being held in the same prison as the Thorn Tribe. A new prison is already under construction, so let them build it themselves."
"They attacked and disrupted the normal lives of so many tribes. We must make them work to compensate them."
Listening to the tone of the flying orcs, Meng Yuqing nodded. It must be that Qingshan City suffered no losses, so he could speak in such a tone.
When he turned around and was about to continue asking the flying orcs about the situation in the secondary city, he saw the tip of Xuan's tail curling out of the corner of his eye. He tilted his head and thought for a moment, then he understood what Xuan meant.
He climbed to the top of Xuan's head, pinched Xuan's ear and said, "Do you want to see how the patriarch ambushed them?"
Xuan's ears moved unnaturally, and then he whispered, "You saw through me again."
"Then should we go directly?" Meng Yuqing asked again.
The flying orcs also turned their attention to Xuan, waiting for his decision.
If Xuan wanted to go over now, they could lead the way immediately.
Xuan thought for a moment and said, "Let's go back to Qingshan City first and find out the ambush plan of the father beast and his men. Otherwise, if we rush over there rashly, we might ruin their plan."
Hearing Xuan's words, Meng Yuqing nodded in agreement, then turned to ask the flying orcs, "Did the tribe leader personally lead the people out? Then who is guarding the city now?"
"Shu and the old patriarch are guarding the city. Yang and Fei have gone out with the patriarch. Ji, Fu and Tong have also taken a lot of people out." The flying orc replied.
When Meng Yuqing heard this lineup, he thought that Xia was planning to eat all the orcs coming from the north. Even if he couldn't eat all of them, he could at least eat most of them.
However, if Xia doesn't seize such a good opportunity, he won't be Xia. After all, this time the northern orcs' invasion of the south is different from the time when a thousand orcs came to rob the southern salt caves.
At the beginning, the overall strength of the orcs in the south was far lower than that of the orcs in the north. Now, although the average strength of the orcs in the south cannot be said to have caught up with the orcs in the north, their top combat effectiveness is not inferior to that of the other side.
Now they have the home advantage, and the morale of the northern orcs who invaded the south is extremely low after the previous series of operations. They have suffered double torture both mentally and physically, and their mental and physical conditions are not very good.
Not to mention Xia, if he was in Qingshan City, even if Xia didn't have this idea, he would try his best to persuade Xia to go out and ambush the northern orcs.
When dealing with the enemy, we must seize every opportunity to strike and weaken their strength.
If we didn't ambush them this time, would we let the northern orcs retreat in peace, recuperate physically and mentally before making a comeback? With the experience of being tortured after entering the south this time, they wouldn't be so easily fooled next time.
What's more, after coming to Qingshan City and seeing the strength here, it is still a question whether they will come again if the gods cannot come.
It is very likely that there will never be such a good opportunity again, because the South will no longer be on the passive defensive, but will have to prepare to take the initiative to attack the North.
After returning to Qingshan City, the two of them had no way of hiding the news. Almost as soon as they entered the city, everyone they knew came running over.
"Ah, Wu and Xuan are back!"
"Has Xuan become stronger again?"
"Huh? Now that you mention it, I feel the same way. He's not doing anything, just standing there. Why do I feel intimidated by him?"
"His beast form seems to have grown even bigger, probably a size bigger than ours. He must have become even stronger."
"Yeah, it's a circle bigger than us. We wouldn't be able to withstand a collision."
"That's great! When the orcs from the north attacked, I was worried that they would run into those guys outside!"
"Xuan is so powerful, he won't be afraid of meeting those guys."
"That's what I said, but there are too many of them. Even if they can't defeat Xuan, it would be too tiring for Xuan to fight them all alone."
Meng Yuqing seemed to be doing fine at first, but when he heard these two sentences, he couldn't help but look up in the direction where the voice came from.
Who on earth is so confident in Xuan? Apart from anything else, the "God" sent more than ten thousand orcs this time, and transferred people from many tribes.
Although his individual strength was definitely not as good as Xuan's before, neither he nor Xuan could imagine letting Xuan at that time fight against 10,000 people at once.
After searching the crowd for a while, he quickly locked onto the owners of the two voices. They were two little orcs who were only fourteen years old and had a blind admiration for Xuan.
Meng Yuqing lay on Xuan's back without saying a word. Xuan exchanged a few words with the tribesmen who came to greet him, then took Meng Yuqing to the administrative office area. This time, it was the old tribe leader Shu and he who were on duty. They usually lived in the administrative office area.
Some of the flying orcs had already returned to Qingshan City to inform the old patriarch He Shu, Xuan, and Meng Yuqing of their return. Therefore, when they arrived at the administrative office, the old patriarch He Shu was already waiting for them in the office where they often held meetings.
