She confronted Cochas face to face. Since he was so eager to break up with her, she would let him do as he wished. If the city continued like this, there would be no salvation.
When Ye Luoxing said this earth-shattering turn of events, all the beastmen in the cave were stunned. The noisy cave quickly quieted down again. All the beastmen stared with wide eyes, not even knowing how to react next...
Kochas looked at Ye Luoxing on the top floor. There was no surprise or panic in his eyes, but there was a hint of loss in his eyes.
While the orcs were still in a state of confusion, Kochas calmly spoke up, "Female Yeluo, I know they captured your friends and used them to threaten you. So, you had to say this to protect them. But sometimes, your kindness can actually harm you."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Ye Luoxing raised his eyebrows coldly.
The orcs in the cave all looked at Kochas with doubts in their eyes, waiting for Kochas' answer.
Kochas quickly continued, "Those terns that helped you defend the ring in the city center are of low rank, but you care about them very much. The Flamingo Tribe is taking advantage of your kindness and manipulating you. I know you're worried about them, but don't worry—I've already found them. If nothing unexpected happens, I'll bring them back safely in the next few days. Ye Luoxing, you should protect yourself first."
Kochas was talking nonsense in a serious manner, and Ye Luoxing frowned as she listened. But when she heard that he had "found Lyle and the others", the expression in Ye Luoxing's eyes changed. Did he really... catch Lyle and the others again?
Is he... threatening her at this moment?
Ye Luoxing's mind was working rapidly, and because of her momentary silence, the orcs in the cave quickly remembered something.
"Oh, right, I suddenly remembered that the group of low-level beasts that followed Ye Luoxing's female seemed to have disappeared?"
"That's true... And it seems that since they disappeared, the female Ye Luoxing has been with the Flamingo tribe every day."
"Could it be... really as Elder Ke said?"
Kochas's years of disguise weren't in vain. Furthermore, the Bald Eagles had lived in Midnight City for generations. How could the orcs of Midnight City easily doubt them? The trust the Bald Eagles had instilled in the orcs was deeply ingrained. The orcs admired and loved them!
And just at this moment, an orc in the herd suddenly widened his eyes and said in a clear voice: "I remember!"
The orcs were drawn to him, and they heard the orc continue, "That day, I saw the Flamingo orcs escorting the group of terns and the fish beast out of the city. They were sneaking around, and we happened to be out of town for something, so we ran into them by chance. The orcs had strange expressions on their faces, and it was obvious they were reluctant to leave the city..."
He was not an orc from the Bald Eagle tribe, but a male orc who had just reached adulthood in the inner city. After he finished speaking, several male orcs in the surrounding herds responded. Most of them were orcs who were selected to enter the inner city this time, and some were partners of female orcs. Their words greatly increased the credibility of this matter.
Moreover, they did not lie. That day, Bei Yan and his men arranged for the orcs to escort Lyle and his men out of the city. Even if they could avoid the eyes and ears of Kochas and his men, it was impossible for them to avoid all the orcs in the city. After all, the orcs' five senses were very strong, and some of them must have seen Lyle and his men.
For a moment, the situation was completely tilted. The orcs looked at Ye Luoxing with complicated eyes. They obviously believed what Kochas said...
"It seems that what the elder said is correct. The new female must have been threatened by the Flamingo tribe..."
"They are even sending orcs to watch over the females on Ye Luoxing..."
"They've gone too far. If Elder Ke hadn't been smart enough, the females of Ye Luoxing and the Bald Eagle Clan would have been schemed against by them."
The orcs shared a common hatred for the enemy, but in a short period of time, many of them showed their claws, ready to pounce on the flamingos in the cave at any time.
Kochas stared directly at Ye Luoxing, a smug smile flickering across his eyes. This was Elder Kochas, the master of disguise from Midnight City. He was using his actions to tell her that he only needed a few words to put the Flamingo tribe to death. They were no match for him, and everything she had done... was in vain...
Feng He looked at Ye Luoxing with a complicated look. He seemed to have heard the threat in Kochas' words.
Then, Feng He looked at Kochas below and said, "Kochas, you are very scheming. What you said is all nonsense!"
Ye Luoxing opened her mouth. She didn't intend to let the situation become deadlocked, but Kochas didn't give her a chance to speak.
He seemed to have guessed what she was about to say, so he spoke a second before her: "Female, the Flamingo tribe just threatened you again, and I rescued you. But I didn't expect that you would fall into their trap for the sake of those orcs. You are too kind..."
He was full of praise for her, but in fact it was all scheming. He took the credit for "saving her" on himself and perfectly solved a loophole.
"No wonder the new female has the scent of Section Chief. It turns out it was Section Chief who saved her..."
Soon, an orc in the herd mentioned this matter. A sneer flashed across Ye Luoxing's eyes. "Kochas, Kochas... you really have calculated everything..."
The two male beasts protecting her couldn't stand it any longer. They were about to step forward to argue with Kochas, but they didn't expect a few sharp claws to press against his neck, and they threatened in a deep voice: "Stop, don't move!"
The war has begun - Ye Luoxing and Feng He turned their heads and looked. The two male beasts had gloomy faces, suppressed their anger, and clenched their fists.
Ye Luoxing looked away and winked at Feng He. Then, Kochas's voice came from below: "Feng He, as a male beast that Ye Luoxing's female cares about, you should be more concerned about her safety, rather than defending other beastmen just to please the female's opinions."
Kochas's words were ambiguous. On the surface, he seemed to be telling Feng He not to defend Lyle and the others just to obey the females; in reality, he was warning Feng He not to go against them for the Flamingo Clan and put Ye Luoxing in danger...
Feng He naturally understood what Kochas meant, but his gaze was still turned to the female next to him because he would always be loyal to her.
Kochas's few words could provoke all the beasts, but not him...
In the chaotic situation, before Ye Luoxing could find a way to help the Flamingo tribe solve this mess, the female beast that had just left came back with the group of high-level beasts. Her voice arrived before her figure, breaking the tilted balance with a clear voice.
"Kochas, you dare to frame us while none of my influential beastmen are here? You are the one who calls the shots in this Midnight City. Anyone who dares to harm my beasts today will be against me, Katiejo. I will show you who is the evil spirit that harmed Midnight City!"
Katiejo sat on the back of a flamingo, lighting up the dark and depressing cave with a row of the brightest colors.
