To the snow wolf tribe and the half-crippled leopard tribe, all they saw was a petite female running at incredible speed, stepping on the heads of the frenzied beastmen. Wherever she went, the beastmen collapsed to the ground as if they had been knocked unconscious by a stick.
The scene was extremely impressive.
The shock was so great that even the two fighters stopped fighting.
At this moment, Li Sanjin, who had been suppressed, suddenly had a wicked glint in his eyes. He roared and broke free from Han's restraints, rushing towards Xia Yixin's direction!
Just then, Xia Yixin finished dealing with the last lion-tiger beast. As she stepped on the giant beast's crashing body, she suddenly felt a chill down her spine.
She guessed who it was, and a murderous glint appeared in her eyes. However, just as she was about to draw her Shangxie Blade to finish the man off, someone was faster than her and grabbed her.
She could only smell the cool fragrance, and the furry wolf belly was surprisingly soft and warm, but unfortunately, she also smelled the blood that followed.
His back was ripped open by Li Sanjin, but he seemed to feel no pain at all. He pushed Xia Yixin away, turned around, and with a low growl, bit Li Sanjin's left forearm.
"Awooo—!"
Li Sanjin screamed in agony. His condition was much worse than Han's. He had lost sight in one eye and was covered in wounds. He had only managed to survive this long because of the protagonist's plot armor. In desperation, he cut off his own arm and fled into the forest in a sorry state.
Xia Yixin was a little anxious as she watched Li Sanjin run away. His escape was like releasing a tiger back into the mountains. But just as she chased after him for a few steps, Rui's exclamation rang out behind her.
"Chieftain!"
Han transformed back into human form, his body covered in wounds, especially his back, which was a bloody mess.
Xia Yixin turned and ran over to support the unconscious Han, saying urgently, "I'll take care of him. You go after him, we can't let him escape!"
"Okay, thank you!" Rui nodded and immediately led a dozen or so snow wolf tribesmen to follow the scent of blood.
With such a strong smell of blood, staying here was a bad idea. After the old witch doctor was invited over, they all went to the other side of the river.
The war began at dusk and ended when it was completely dark.
The leopard clan left behind a total of twenty corpses, many of which were crushed or eaten by the frenzied beastmen. Apart from the thirty-odd people who escaped, the rest were captured by the snow wolf clan.
On the Snow Wolf Clan's side, only a dozen or so people suffered injuries of varying degrees. The females and cubs were all safe. Only the camp's huts and other structures were destroyed by the beastmen.
But this was already an unprecedented victory.
Unfortunately, Han's injury was quite severe, and Xia Yixin felt pain in her flesh when she used bone needles to stitch him up through strands of hair.
Moreover, seeing the deep, bone-revealing wound, she inexplicably thought of the injury on Xiao's face before, wondering if it had healed.
She shook her head, dismissing the strange thought.
Thanks to Xia Yixin's herbs, he was bandaged up and woke up the next morning, though his lips were pale.
The moment he opened his eyes, as if searching for something, the urgency in his obsidian-like eyes turned into calm when he saw Xia Yixin.
"You... cough cough cough."
"Don't talk yet, drink some water." Xia Yixin quickly brought him some water that had been cooled down, and after watching him drink it, she continued, "Although your healing ability is good, it's best not to get it wet for three days. Also, um, thank you for saving me before."
Although she doesn’t actually need it.
"I should be thanking you." Han knew very well that if she hadn't triggered the beast tide, the Snow Wolf Clan might not have won so quickly.
Seeing his serious expression, Xia Yixin teased, "Shouldn't you be angry that I acted on my own and disobeyed you?"
A hint of warmth appeared in his cold eyes. "You helped the Snow Wolf Clan."
Xia Yixin looked at Han and subconsciously sighed, "So you're not him." If she had said Lu Yan, he would have arrogantly scolded her, and Xia Yixin could sense that in Han's heart, the Snow Wolf Clan was number one.
"Him?" Han's heart sank slightly, and his masculine instincts made him feel a sense of crisis.
"It's nothing, you get some rest. I'll go call the old witch doctor over." Xia Yixin changed the subject and left the thatched hut before the other person could answer.
Just then, Rui, who had gone out to give chase, hurriedly returned.
Unfortunately, he brought back bad news; Li Sanjin had escaped again. But they didn't come away empty-handed; they crippled one of his legs.
The system indicates that the mission to hunt down the saboteurs is 50% complete.
"He jumped into the river and ran away. We searched for a long time but couldn't find him. But that river flows very fast and leads to the sea. Even if he doesn't die, he'll be half-dead. Besides, he's missing an arm and a leg. Even if he survives, he'll be useless." Rui said confidently.
The sea?
Xia Yixin vaguely thought of something, but couldn't quite put it into words, so she decided to put it aside for the time being.
As dawn broke, the beastmen gradually regained consciousness and returned to their original territories. They had accumulated some reserves, and they weren't entirely without benefit, because the residual effects of the drug would allow them to enjoy their breeding season even more.
Moreover, some of them even ate a lot of leopard people to increase their beast spirit power.
To avoid being caught by the fleeing leopards, the snow wolf tribe set off towards their destination overnight.
At dawn, they arrived at their new settlement, an undeveloped mountain covered with vegetation, with plenty of trees to build houses.
From the start of their journey, it took them a total of six days and nights.
But all the tribespeople wore relieved smiles, especially the beast spirits who had escaped from the Huaxia tribe.
The leopard clan's prisoners disappeared halfway there, and Xia Yixin guessed their fate when she saw Han return covered in blood.
The law of the jungle prevails on this continent.
The only pity was that Li Sanjin ran away, but he cut off his own arm, and the tribesmen he brought with him scattered. It was just before the breeding season, and after confirming that there was no trace of him within a ten-kilometer radius, Rui reluctantly led his tribesmen back.
Upon arriving at their new settlement, the Snow Wolf tribe quickly began building their new home.
At the same time, his attitude towards Xia Yixin was almost the same as that towards a deity.
To her surprise, Xia Yixin discovered a large patch of wild wheat at the foot of the mountain!
In spring, the lush green wheat seemed no different from the surrounding grass, but she was filled with delight, her mind filled with images of flatbread, steamed buns, mantou, dumplings, noodles...
It's a pity she can't stay here now, otherwise she could get the seed.
This gave her an idea.
She called the old witch doctor over and talked to her about the wheat, and also gave her a general explanation of how to plant and process edible wheat, since the wheat had only just sprouted and she could only do so by drawing pictures.
The old witch doctor now completely trusts Xia Yixin, but he still can't believe it when he looks at the pictures on the animal skin.
“Xia, actually I’ve long felt that Lin Luo isn’t a messenger of God at all. You are. You helped the Snow Wolf Clan overcome the crisis and taught us these things. If this plant can be made into what you described, it will solve a large part of our clan’s food problem. Thank you, child, thank you!” The old witch doctor said, about to kneel down.
Xia Yixin quickly grabbed her.
“Old witch doctor, actually I have a business deal I’d like to discuss with you.”
