Chapter 9 The Pain of Ten Years Ago



Xia was silent for a while, took a deep breath, and looked at the tribesmen around him.

"Go and call the other tribesmen over. Once they're all here, we can talk about it together."

Having said that, Xia looked at the shadow beast with a trace of pain in his eyes, and then he immediately restrained his emotions. As the patriarch, he could not show his emotions too obviously.

Because it was the patriarch who gave the order, the tribesmen came quickly.

After waiting for about twenty minutes, the number of people arriving gradually decreased. Xia looked up and estimated that almost everyone had arrived. He didn't plan to wait any longer for those who had missed the opportunity.

He walked onto the stage and asked the orcs who had been following him to carry the shadow beast up.

The square became lively. Looking at the tribesmen crowded together below, Xia raised his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.

Seeing the chief's actions, the tribesmen stopped discussing and looked up at Xia.

Xia cleared his throat and spoke slowly under the gaze of his tribesmen.

"Everyone still remembers the beast attack on the tribe ten years ago."

When Xia mentioned this matter, the tribesmen in the square immediately started discussing it in a buzzing voice.

"Ten years ago, that attack was an eternal pain for our tribe. In that attack, we lost many of our people, including orcs, sub-orcs, and many children."

"Many people must have thought it was just an ordinary wild animal attack."

The tribesmen had quieted down and looked up at Xia. Xia turned around and looked at the shadow beast, paused, and continued.

"No! It was this despicable shadow beast that was responsible for the attack. It wanted to rob us of the food we had painstakingly stored before winter. It's a voracious predator of sub-beasts and cubs, and it orchestrated the attack."

"It took advantage of the fact that most of our orcs were away from the tribe and out hunting in autumn, and used its talents to drive many wild beasts to attack our tribe."

"There weren't many of us orcs left at the time, and those who stayed struggled to resist the invasion of wild beasts. Even underage and elderly orcs participated in the battle."

"But there were too many beasts. By the time the beastmen who had gone out hunting returned, the tribe was filled with beasts, and most of the people who stayed in the tribe... were killed or injured."

"The shadow beast that caused all this took advantage of the tribe being attacked and the orcs busy fighting other beasts to sneak into our food warehouse."

"It's not enough for him to get food from our warehouse."

"It avoids orcs and only attacks hidden sub-beasts and cubs." When Xia said this, his voice trembled and he closed his eyes to hide the pain in his eyes.

"It... mauled the beasts and their young to death and piled their bodies together."

"By the time we found it, the bodies of the sub-beasts and their cubs were already piled high."

"We fought it desperately, but it was very cunning and powerful. We couldn't kill it, and all we could do was leave this scar on its face."

After saying that, Xia walked to the shadow beast's head and lifted it up so that everyone could clearly see the hideous scar.

The tribesmen below the stage were shocked. The attack ten years ago was not an accident! It was planned by a greedy and brutal beast.

It turned out that some people who were confused suddenly realized that the attacks of wild beasts on tribes usually occurred in winters that were longer and more difficult than ordinary winters.

The wild beasts were hungry and could not catch other prey, so they set their sights on attacking the tribe.

The attack ten years ago took place in the autumn before winter. At that time, there was plenty of food and the wild beasts were fat and strong. They were busy hunting and would not attack the tribe at all. After all, it was more convenient to hunt those wild beasts with lots of meat and little fighting power than to attack the tribe.

Moreover, the number of wild beasts in that attack was much greater than in ordinary attacks.

It can even be called a wave of small beasts.

Yang lowered his head and clenched his hands into fists. His inverted nails began to bleed again because of this action.

Lie stood beside Yang, his hand holding Yang's arm trembling slightly.

"Father beast..."

Yang took a few deep breaths before calming down. He looked at Lie and shook his head slightly to indicate that he was fine.

After a long while, someone spoke.

"Damn it, damn it!"

"My child, wu ...

"Wuwu ...

"So does my partner."

Many people cried out loud.

"Now it has finally been killed. Who killed it?"

"Yes, that's who killed it! He's a warrior from our tribe!"

"It seems to be Xuan. He went out for adult hunting some time ago. I think he brought it back."

Someone answered.

"No wonder he went out hunting for so long. It turns out he was looking for this beast."

"here you go!"

.........

Xia didn't say anything else, allowing the tribesmen in the audience to vent their emotions.

Not many people knew the secret back then. Only the orcs who fought against the shadow beasts and a few orcs who knew about the shadow beasts knew about it.

After a long while, the square gradually quieted down. Xia finally spoke.

"Ten years later, Xuan went out hunting during his adult years and found the trace of the Shadow Beast. He finally hunted it down and brought it back to the tribe. This matter finally came to a conclusion."

Everyone's eyes focused on Xuan, who had no expression on his face and looked extremely indifferent.

The hunting team leader Lan walked up to Xuan and patted him on the shoulder.
