"Execute him! Execute him!"
"There's not a single good thing in humanity. He must die, he must die!"
"We firmly support Grandma Arno and resolutely protect the homeland of our Spirit Fox Clan. Anyone who opposes Grandma Arno is opposing our entire Spirit Fox Clan!"
"..."
Yi Yi had always known that Grandma Arno, as the eldest elder in the Spirit Fox Clan, held considerable prestige within the clan. Therefore, although she had previously disagreed with Grandma Arno's methods in many ways, she had never directly confronted her, preferring to back down whenever possible.
This time, however, it seems she has no way out.
"Mao Mao, keep an eye on Mu Mu."
Yi clenched her fists, her cold gaze sweeping over the tribesmen who were quickly closing in on her.
"Yi Yi, don't be impulsive." Chen Dudu realized what she was about to do and held her hand tightly beside her. For her to fight the entire Spirit Fox Clan alone was like throwing an egg against a rock.
"Dudu, you know I won't let them hurt Mumu. You and Yu'er are fine. If... I mean if something happens to me, please help me get Mumu out of here."
"Don't talk nonsense. With me here, you'll be fine."
Chen Dudu squeezed her hand tightly as punishment for her earlier slip of the tongue. However, since she had already made her decision, all he could do was stand beside her.
"Dudu, what are you doing? This human has nothing to do with you. Don't get yourself into trouble because of him," Yu'er called out anxiously. She knew that Chen Dudu was probably blaming her for telling Grandma Arno. But if she didn't tell Grandma Arno, Grandma Arno would find out about Mu Nanxun sooner or later. Then, it wouldn't just be Yi Yi who would be punished, but also Dudu and herself.
“Who says it has nothing to do with me? I rescued him from the pool, and I’ve been keeping him in the treatment room ever since. If anyone deserves punishment, it’s me.”
Upon hearing this, Grandma Arno looked at Yi Yi with a questioning gaze, "Is what he said true? This man really was brought by him."
Yi Yi vehemently denied it, "Of course not. Dudu, don't even think about taking the blame for me. Grandma Arno is so smart, how could she be fooled by your little tricks?"
“That’s true. Stop arguing. I know the truth perfectly well.” Grandma Arno seemed to see through their little game, and gave them one last warning, “Yi Yi, don’t blame Grandma Arno for being ruthless. If you protect this man, you’re going against us, and you’ll be punished. Grandma will give you one last chance. Hand over this man, and Grandma can forgive your past mistakes. We can still get along like before.”
"Hand over this man! Hand over this man!"
The fox spirits surrounding Yi Yi raised their arms and shouted, looking indignant.
Yi Yi took a deep breath, pulled her hand away from Chen Dudu's palm, and glanced at everyone with a cold gaze. "Stop talking, let's fight."
"Fine...you're really stubborn. Listen, arrest that man! Anyone who tries to stop you, no matter who they are, show no mercy!"
"yes!"
At Grandma Arno's command, all the fox spirits in the tribe raised their weapons and swarmed towards Yi Yi.
"Watch out, Yi Yi!"
Chen Dudu, limping, rushed to Yi Yi and shielded her from the stick that was about to fall on her.
The stick struck his arm with a loud crack, and it felt as if the bone had shattered. The pain made him break out in a cold sweat.
