In an instant, Xilin's mind went blank. He should have guessed it. Since Beiyan could find out that Lu Lan's injury had been healed, with this elder's intelligence and scheming, how could he not guess who healed Chief Lu Lan? It was only a matter of time.
The most different and terrifying thing about this elder compared to ordinary orcs is that he firmly believes in this fact.
Even though this matter is so incredible and magical, he will still believe it after he guesses it!
Xilin lowered his head again and could only stubbornly say, "I don't know..."
Bei Yan gracefully raised his hand and examined his palm. Those slender hands had clearly executed many orcs. He spoke calmly, "Xilin, last time you were deceived by Helig of the Far North Viper Tribe and helped her keep a secret. As a result, Lu Lan was ambushed by Kochas and severely injured. It's been so long, and you still haven't changed."
Xilin could feel the faint murderous intent coming from the front. He lowered his head and did not look up again.
Xilin whispered, "I didn't know that the Helig female lied to me, but it was indeed my fault last time. I admit it."
Lu Lan was injured because of his own mistake, and Xilin kept blaming himself, so when he drove him out of the inner city, he did not defend himself at all and moved out of the inner city that night. He also helped Lu Lan find a witch doctor in the outer city until he finally met the female Luo Xing.
When she asked him to help reserve the stone house for the witch doctor, he finally agreed and did it quickly, which was also because of Lu Lan.
However, Xilin does not think that these two things can be confused.
He said in a serious tone, "But the Luoxing female is different from the Helig female. At least she hasn't harmed any orcs yet. Besides, haven't you elders also formed an alliance with the Luoxing female? Don't you trust the Ye Luoxing female? Did you deceive her?"
Xilin looked up at Beiyan again, with a questioning tone, like a sharp thorn, piercing Beiyan's heart.
Even though he quickly lowered his head again, Bei Yan's face still turned cold because of his questioning.
Bei Yan narrowed his enchanting eyes and said, "Of course she's different, but you're getting bolder."
Xilin was silent, feeling uneasy, and stopped talking. He just couldn't help but say those words.
Bei Yan slowly lowered his hand and said coldly, "You helped Helig hide it because she was a noble from the inner city, because she was female, and her relationship with Kochas wasn't confirmed at the time. You couldn't refuse her, so you agreed. So, what's the reason this time? Because... you covet her?"
Bei Yan suddenly glanced at Xilin coldly and slowly sat up straight. Even though Xilin didn't look up, he was frightened and his face turned pale.
Because of Bei Yan's sudden change in tone and the cold light above his head that could not be ignored, Xilin clenched his hands nervously.
The silence in the cabin made the figure on the ground's floor beat faster. The pressure was like a snowy mountain pressing down on him. Even though the night in the north was so cold, a thin layer of sweat still seeped out of his forehead. He didn't know how long the silence lasted...
Xilin felt uneasy and stammered, "I, I..."
He didn't say the rest of his words for a long time. Just when he was trying to finish his words, the door of the cabin opened.
A ray of light shone in, and that light happened to fall on Xilin's body...
Xilin, who was already feeling suffocated, looked back immediately and saw the familiar figure standing at the door where the cold wind was blowing.
Lu Lan was wearing a large pure white cloak, his body was straight, his long, smooth orange hair hung down behind his head, and his white fur collar brushed across his smooth jaw in the cold wind. The skin on his face was abnormally white, his lips were dotted with light red, and a slight red spot on his snow-like nose was fading. His fox eyes, which were obviously evil, were full of tenderness.
Lu Lan is obviously a fox, and when he transforms into an orc, his face is full of the fox's charm, but his eyes and his expression can remove all the fox's charm and cunning. He is like the purest white deer in the snow, coming out of an ink painting. There is no sense of danger, and it even makes people want to get closer!
Lu Lan stared at the figure on the wooden chair. A gentle breeze blew past. He spoke softly, "Why make things difficult for him?"
When Xilin saw his leader, a surge of grievance suddenly appeared in his eyes. He felt like he was about to cry, but he didn't dare to say a word.
He was trapped between two high-level beasts. Xilin couldn't figure out Beiyan's attitude. He felt that if he said the wrong thing, he might lose his life at any time...
"You're here~" Bei Yan looked at the orc at the door, and did not show any surprise at Lu Landi's arrival.
Lu Lan stood at the door and didn't come in. She just continued in that gentle tone: "My injuries have indeed healed a lot. I know that sooner or later you will be able to see it and guess something. Since you already have your own answer in your heart, why bother asking him again?"
Lu Lan's voice slowly reached Bei Yan's ears, and Bei Yan's expression gradually relaxed, but the look in his eyes when he glanced at Xilin was still cold.
Bei Yan said: "I just didn't expect you to hide it from me."
Lu Lan lowered her eyes. "Just like Xilin said, do you want him to betray her? Are you willing to betray her yourself?"
Bei Yan's eyes deepened. Perhaps only when Lu Lan said these words would he ponder longer and think more deeply.
He knew what Lu Lan meant, but as someone in a higher position and as a friend, he was bound to feel unhappy...
Bei Yan asked him, "How many things do you have that I don't know?"
Lu Lan answered seriously: "I think there should be no more."
The coldness in Bei Yan's eyes faded a little. He was silent for a while, with one hand on the armrest of the chair.
"Is your injury really completely healed?" Bei Yan raised his eyebrows, his eyes sliding over his covered wound.
"Not yet." Lu Lan answered sincerely, "But it won't be long before everything is healed."
Bei Yan curled his lips and smiled, not knowing whether he was laughing at their deception or at meeting that godlike female.
He slowly stood up: "It's really unreal..."
He walked towards the door and passed by Lu Lan, saying, "He is your tribe beast, you can do whatever you want."
Bei Yan left and disappeared in the cold wind outside the house. When his scent was blown away, it was as if he had never been here.
Lu Lan looked at Xi Lin, who breathed a sigh of relief. Lu Lan smiled and said, "Get up!"
The night episode passed like this. Except for them, no orcs knew what happened here. The wooden door of the wooden house was closed, leaving the room full of silence.
The next day, after Ye Luoxing got up, she found that a familiar orc had brought her breakfast.
She asked in surprise, "Xilin? You entered the inner city?"
Xilin saw the female he hadn't seen for a few days and smiled as usual, saying, "Well, Chief Lulan asked me to take care of you."
