Once you are pulled into the vortex, how can you not be interested in survival?
Ye Luoxing's expression changed. She stared coldly at the leading beast: "What do you mean?"
In response to her questioning, Kochas smiled apologetically, as if to avoid the topic.
He suddenly changed the subject and said, "Female Ye Luoxing, I remember that there were a few male orcs guarding the arena in the center of your city all day long. Are you on good terms with them? I heard from Tabor that they were orcs without identity totems, and it was you who allowed them into the city. It seems that you knew each other before entering Midnight City..."
He kept talking and talking, and Ye Luoxing looked over at Tabo. When Tabo saw her looking at him, he quietly avoided her gaze, as if he couldn't look her in the eye. Ye Luoxing's heart sank. It seemed that the bloody massacres earlier were really aimed at her...
She looked back at the first high-ranking authority and said with a smile, "Didn't you say at the beginning that I came here 'alone'?"
She has no relatives or friends in the animal world and lives alone. What can they use to threaten her? She won't fall for it.
Kochas half-lowered his eyes. "It's dangerous for a female to act alone. After all, many females have disappeared recently..."
She still curled her lips: "I won't disappear."
Her simple words met her starry eyes and he couldn't help laughing. She was right, she wouldn't disappear...
Time seemed to stand still, completely silent. In the boundless silence, only the heartbeat continued as usual.
"You are not from the South, are you?" Suddenly, a familiar voice came from her right. Feixu raised his dark brown eyes again, staring at her quietly, seeing through her heart.
This time, although Ye Luoxing was frightened, he kept his expression steady. This group of beasts looked like the beasts of Hell.
Feixu narrated calmly, "I travel back and forth between the north and south every year. You don't look like a beast from the south."
Their tone became increasingly dangerous, but they didn't argue. Feixu sat upright on a stone chair and said, "Female Ye Luoxing, the group of beasts you took in are most likely nobles from the west. You've taken them in by borrowing the stone house where females choose mates, which is equivalent to helping them hide their tracks. This may put Polar Night City in danger."
"How could you say before that you had never hurt anyone?" Feixu brought back the previous topic, raised her eyebrows and asked a question, as if pressing her step by step.
Ye Luoxing turned to him and said, "They've been in the city for so long, and you haven't noticed them. If I hadn't told you, you probably wouldn't have noticed that a group of orcs had entered the city, right?"
She didn't belong to any of their factions. Even if she was temporarily staying in the Northern Beast City, which was wrong, it was definitely not a reason for them to threaten her to do something else.
Kochas heard that her conversation with Feixu ended so quickly, and she was more eloquent than he had imagined.
Kochas murmured to himself: "This is troublesome, I can't help but..." do something.
The figure reflected in her pupils completely "enclosed" her. She was alert, careful, intelligent, and powerful, seemingly without any flaws. She sat there steadily, only then...
"We were just joking with you." Kochas smiled kindly, as if the tense atmosphere just now was fake.
He slowly stood up from the stone chair, and walked towards Ye Luoxing with his long, straight legs...
He was less than ten meters away from her. Seeing the orc sitting firmly on the ground make a move, Ye Luoxing couldn't help but be alert. Yue Shang also felt a little worried: "What is he going to do? Captain Ye, you have to be careful..."
Kochas moved, and Tabor and Sova's hearts raced. Every step he took quickened their heartbeats. The other orcs all had subtle expressions. Feixu pursed her lips, and they turned to her. All these subtle expressions were signs of nervousness...
As Kochas got closer, Ye Luoxing wanted to get out of the chair.
When he was only two meters away from her, he spoke: "If you are willing to stay in the inner city, you can ask for any conditions!"
Was he confronting her? Was he negotiating with her? Ye Luoxing saw him stop half a meter in front of her.
He did not come any closer, although the distance between them was not far. He looked at her seriously and sincerely, waiting for her answer. The unfriendly aura around him completely dissipated, and he looked so polite and kind.
Ye Luoxing was in a daze. How could there be such a fickle orc? He changed his expression faster than turning the pages of a book, making it difficult to tell which page was the real him.
"If you really don't want to, then forget it." He didn't wait for her answer, and the words suddenly came out, which surprised Ye Luoxing even more. He took a step sideways, as if he was about to turn around and leave.
Kochas looked at her beautiful face and sniffed her scent closely. She had a high star rank and level, a beautiful face, a pleasant voice, a pleasant smell, a smart mind, good speech, cautious and able to handle things with ease. Kochas dared to bet that there would be no other orcs like her in the entire beast world, yes, not just among female beasts.
——And she happens to be a rare female.
She was perfect, just as she had been when he first saw her today. He couldn't find any flaws in her, at least that was the case now. Not only was he certain, but all the beastmen in the cave were certain that after a brief encounter, they could discover more than just her beauty and strength. This kind of female...
How could Kochas let it go! Tabor and Feixu suddenly looked cold when Kochas turned sideways!
As expected, just as Ye Luoxing was about to relax, the beast, which had clearly turned sideways and was about to leave, suddenly turned back. His speed was so fast that Ye Luoxing couldn't catch him at all. By the time she reacted, he was already close to her. Yes, very, very close...
