Due to the uneven terrain, the head rolled and stopped half a meter in front of Ye Luoxing. She was not afraid, but she felt complicated because the blisters on the head were not caused by wild beasts.
Yue Huang quietly took a step forward. Perhaps it was a coincidence, but his tall figure just blocked her view of the head.
Yue Huang frowned as he looked at the bloody head, his eyes flickering. He raised his head and stared at the group of beasts in front of him: "What's going on?"
He was asking for details, and the leading male beast replied, "When we passed the forest behind the southeastern mountains, we saw several wild beasts gnawing at Lev's head. I guess the Yan Beast left not long ago, otherwise Lev would have been devoured long ago. I've already informed the other nearby teams, and they've begun searching around that area. I'll report back later."
Xilan Meng and Po Chen looked at Lev's head with cold faces. They could definitely see that Lev had suffered a lot.
What Yan's beast group did was undoubtedly a blatant threat to them. These strange beasts clenched their fists at their sides, and the anger in their hearts was probably like surging waves.
"They are so arrogant! They killed so many orcs from the tribe, and now they are slaughtering the seventh-level Lev!"
"They also captured quite a few male beasts. I wonder if they're still alive! I must skin these beasts myself!"
"The females are still in their hands. They dared to throw Lev's body into the forest to provoke us. There's no guarantee they won't harm the females!"
"The female companion beasts are all feeling unwell. The Yan Beast Group must have attacked the females..."
"Damn it! Where on earth are these filthy and disgusting things hiding..."
The strange beasts in front were indignant, and they vented their emotions one after another. They were not afraid of facing the group of Yan beasts head-on, but the feeling of not being able to find an opponent made them angry and powerless. Although they believed that they would find the nest of the Yan beasts sooner or later, could their captured companions really wait that long?
They were worried and afraid of losing their companions, and even more afraid of something happening to the females...
Pochen's face was terribly gloomy, and his eyes never left Lev's head. After all, Lev was a beast of the same species as him.
Yue Huang asked coldly, "Is there no trace or scent left in the forest?"
The strange beast in front shook its head. "We've searched carefully, but found no trace or scent of the Hell Beasts. This group of Hell Beasts obviously does this kind of thing often, and they've taken good care of their tracks. However, I suspect there's a witch doctor among the Hell Beast herd, otherwise there wouldn't be any trace of anything."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yue Huang and Xilan Meng looked at Ye Luoxing standing beside them with some doubt in their eyes.
Ye Luoxing knew what they wanted to ask by looking at their eyes. She nodded and said, "There might be a witch doctor among the Yan Beast Group, but he was also captured by the Yan Beast Group."
"They really do have a witch doctor..." the strange beast in front repeated in a low voice, frowning.
Yue Huang pondered for a moment, then looked at the group of orcs in front of him and said, "They captured Lev three days ago, and three days later, they sent Lev's head to the forest in the southeast. The forest behind the mountains is not far from the Beast City, and they came and went in just three days, which proves that their temporary nest is not too far from Yancheng."
"Could they have killed Lev on the way back to the nest?" Po Chen made a reasonable guess.
Yue Huang said, "I can't rule out this possibility, but it's too risky for them. Furthermore, the nearby forest is full of strange beasts lately. If they make even the slightest noise, they'll be noticed. So I prefer to believe that their lair isn't far from here."
"And..." Yue Huang's eyes darkened and he paused, obviously thinking of something.
"Since they came with a purpose, they can't sit still until we find them." This sentence was answered by Xilan Meng, with a gleam in his eyes. This time Lev's head was thrown in the nearby forest. In addition to the Yan beast group wanting to threaten them, perhaps the Yan beasts wanted to lead them somewhere else.
After all, if we want to exchange orcs, there must be a place...
However, Xilan Meng was stunned as soon as he finished saying this. He couldn't help but look at Ye Luoxing beside him, and his expression became much gentler.
I guess he was afraid that she would think too much about what he said...
"Xilan Meng, what do you think?" Po Chen took the initiative to ask Xilan Meng. He knew that Xilan Meng had more ideas.
"Yue's previous guess was correct. No matter what their purpose is, these Yan beasts will set up their temporary nest at the border of other territories. However, they may not live very far away. Judging from what happened today, this possibility is even more certain." Xilan Meng retracted his gaze and answered Pochen.
But Xilan Meng did not tell where he guessed. Instead, he picked up a thin wooden stick next to him and drew something on the ground.
The strange beasts around came forward to see Xilan Meng draw several mountain ranges on the ground. They were beasts from the West and had impressions of most of these places, but the places Xilan Meng drew were not the same as what most beastmen had guessed.
Originally, the area near the sea in the east was the most suspicious, and it seems to be the same now, as it is not far from the Beast City.
However, what Xilan Meng drew was the area near the southern sea, which was too close to the open land in the south and was not suitable for the Yan beast group to escape after being discovered. Moreover, although there were many mountains there, they were not as dense as the mountains in the east and north.
Xilan Meng observed the gazes of the beasts and slowly raised his lips. The smile was a little weird. The Yan beast group wanted to lead them to the east.
Unfortunately, he circled a mountain range on the map with a wooden stick. He liked this place better!
"You go out of the city and continue searching. Call back all the teams around the forest. Leave one team behind to search for possible traces nearby. For the rest of the teams, one part will search along the eastern sea area, and the other part will search the area circled by Xilan Meng!" Yue Huang gave the order quickly, his tone serious and earnest. It was obvious that he trusted Xilan Meng.
The group of strange beasts nodded in response, then transformed into beast forms one after another and flew out of the Beast City.
"You guys protect her, I'll go too!" Yue Huang instructed Xilan Meng and Po Chen.
"Eat well and have a good rest." This is what he said to Ye Luoxing. After giving all the instructions, he flapped his wings and flew out of the city.
Pochen went to deal with the head, and now that Lev was dead, there were still some things he needed to deal with.
Ye Luoxing glanced at the picture on the ground and memorized it in her mind. She had no doubt about Xilan Meng's intelligence...
"Luo..." Xilan Meng turned to her and was about to call her name, but saw a familiar figure not far away.
"High Priest?" He raised an eyebrow.
Ye Luoxing turned around and saw an elderly woman standing at the door of the wooden house. She was leaning on a staff in her hand, with long white hair hanging down behind her head.
She looked over here, as if looking at Ye Luoxing, and nodded at her.
