Chapter 265: Cruelty



Qimo nodded and said, "I'm full, don't worry, I'll leave first."

Having said that, he waved his hand and walked towards his own tent.

Ji Nuan finished the porridge in the porcelain bowl and poured some more for Xiu Yan. While watching him drink the porridge, she said, "This morning, the chieftain uncle promised the chieftain Xiong that when you go out hunting today, you should send him back to the Dashi tribe's station."

Xiu Yan changed into a beastman and finished the porridge in his bowl. Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Didn't the clan leader ask him about what happened yesterday?"

Ji Nuan shook her head and said, “I should have asked, but I wasn’t there at the time and didn’t hear anything. But since the clan leader uncle agreed to let him go, then the clan leader Xiong Da wouldn’t be a beast with bad intentions.”

Xiu Yan pursed his lips and nodded, saying, "Let's go ask the tribe leader later if those beastmen from yesterday were from the two tribes that Fu Yi heard about last time."

Ji Nuan nodded. Yes, she was also on the city wall yesterday. If they were beasts from two tribes, then their number would be too small.

Near noon, Chief Ge Xing, who had just finished helping Aunt Naima clean the animal skin, came back from the river with a relaxed look on his face. Ji Nuan and Xiu Yan walked up to him and pulled Chief Ge Xing into their tent.

The three beasts sat down in the tent, and Ji Nuan spoke: "Uncle clan leader, Xiu Yan and I want to ask you, what happened yesterday? What were those beasts under the city wall yesterday..."

Hearing this, Ge Xing sighed deeply, and his expression instantly turned ugly. "They were people from those two tribes. In order to reach the Watson tribe safely, Teng Kui and Sang Guo used the weak beastmen and female cubs as bait. Except for the beasts that reached the city wall, the rest died."

Ji Nuan screamed and covered her mouth. These two beasts were too scary. They were even scarier than Lute from the Tumang tribe. They were willing to kill all the members of the tribe just for their own lives.

Xiu Yan's deep eyes also sank, and then asked: "Then who is that Xiong Da?"

Ge Xing shook his head. "He was tricked into the cave by Sang Guo from the Guo tribe, and then knocked unconscious by Teng Kui and several beastmen and taken away. They did this just to get into our tribe, but in the end they just wanted to escape and left him on the tree."

Ji Nuan couldn't help but worry for the bear chief. Fortunately, he was discovered by Xiu Yan and his men. Otherwise, when the beasts retreated back to the forest, he would be surrounded by the beasts!

Ji Nuan looked at Ge Xing and said, "Uncle Chief, when Xiu Yan and the others send Chief Xiong back today, I want to go with them and see if I can dig up some sweet and crispy fruit seedlings from the Grizzly Bear Tribe's territory while they're away."

Ge Xing frowned: "Ji Nuan, why don't we wait until the beast tide recedes before going! It's too dangerous now."

Xiu Yan wrinkled his beautiful sword-like eyebrows, his handsome face was full of disapproval, his thin lips moved slightly, and he directly refused: "No"

Ji Nuan knew they would not agree easily, and continued, “The tribal gathering of the Grizzly Bear Tribe relies on exchanging sweet and crisp fruits for things. If we go there after the beast tide subsides, they will definitely not let us dig.”

Xiu Yan said, "Tell me what it looks like, and I'll go pick it. You can't go."

Ji Nuan curled her lips and said, "That's why I wanted to go and see it because I didn't know what it looked like!"
