Chapter 172 Farewell and Departure
Jiang Xi was stunned for a moment.
The caves were carved into the rock face, and the stones that were carved out could be used to build stone houses, which was a perfect use of the material.
Living in a cave is better than living in a wooden plank or thatched house; it's warm in winter and cool in summer, and doesn't require frequent repairs.
Just as Jiang Xi was watching intently, a man's and a woman's voices suddenly rang out.
"Naffel!"
"Naffel?"
Jiang Xi looked in the direction of the sound and saw a giant tiger with yellow and black stripes carrying a female wrapped in animal skin, standing not far away.
The female had short blue hair and fair skin, and her gaze was full of surprise and joy.
But when her gaze shifted and landed on the beautiful female in Nafi's arms, she instantly felt a sense of crisis.
"Nafel, who is she!"
Her voice was accusatory, as if she had caught her cheating husband in the act.
Nafiel did not answer her, but spoke calmly.
"I'm going to the Lion's Roar tribe with my mistress. From now on, I will no longer be a beastman of the Python Tribe. Please pass on this message to the chief."
Both the female and the beastman were taken aback.
But before the two could speak, Nafiel turned and left, carrying the female master.
Not only were the two people caught off guard, but Jiang Xi was also caught off guard.
He... just left like that?
Does saying you won't enter a tribe really mean you won't set foot inside at all?
That was really efficient, not a single bit of hesitation.
The female, who had been stunned in place, reacted and quickly patted the giant tiger beneath her.
"Ferguson, hurry up and chase after them!"
Ferguson lifted his foot, then put it down again, and spoke.
“Mistress, let it go, Nafiel. He has already entered into a marriage contract with the female in her arms.”
He noticed it just now.
Sheena, who was sitting on him, screamed instantly.
"What!!"
She raised her hand angrily and slapped the giant tiger's head a few times.
"Chase after them! I need to get to the bottom of this!!"
“How can Nafiel marry another female! His mother has already promised me that she will give him and his brother to me after this winter!”
"Once Nakan and I are married, Nafiel will only be able to marry me!"
Ferguson could only move his limbs and chase after the direction where Nafer had disappeared.
But he had only just entered the third major stage, and he didn't have a speed ability, so he couldn't catch up with Nafiel at all. He didn't even see a trace of his tail.
Seeing that they were getting further and further away from the tribe and had not caught up with Nafiel, they had no choice but to stop on their own initiative.
"My lady, the chief and the chief have instructed us that there have been too many unusual movements lately, and we are not allowed to stray too far from the tribe. We must also hunt in groups of at least ten orcs..."
Seeing this, Xuena angrily punched the giant tiger's back.
"Go back! Find the female leader! The females of the Lion's Roar tribe have dared to come to our Python Wrap tribe and steal orcs! This is not over!!"
Ferguson smiled wryly and could only turn around and return to his tribe.
But when the face of the female in Nafi's arms appeared in his mind, he understood.
No wonder Nafiel was always unwilling to marry a female from the tribe; it turns out his standards were just that high.
but……
When did such a beautiful female appear in the Lion Roar tribe?
Could it be that it was just exiled here this winter?
Otherwise, the Mangjiao tribe would have known about it.
Regardless, the fact that Nafiel married a female member of the Lion's Roar tribe was enough to cause a huge uproar in the Python Tribe.
Next spring, many orcs will likely flock to the Lion's Roar tribe to see what kind of female could marry Nafiel.
After all, Nafiel was recognized as the strongest orc in the Serpent Clan and had never shown any interest in females.
Even Ferguson, if he hadn't clearly sensed the bond between Naphel and that beautiful female, wouldn't have believed that Naphel was truly married.
Meanwhile, Jiang Xi buried her face in Nafi's arms to avoid the oncoming wind and snow.
She held it in for a long time, but couldn't help asking in a low voice.
"Is this all you need?"
The warm breath fell on Nafiel's chest, making his usually slow-beating heart beat faster.
He felt something was off, but he tried to calm himself down and hummed in response.
"If I give them a heads-up, they won't come looking for me if we encounter a beast tide."
Jiang Xi exclaimed, "Huh?"
Is that the reason?
At that moment, Mu Ling's voice roared from afar.
"Naffel!!!"
Jiang Xi gently pressed down on Nafi's shoulder.
"Naffel, slow down."
Nafer obediently slowed down.
Mu Ling, panting heavily, caught up with the animal hide on her back.
He clenched his fist, as if about to throw a punch.
But he was so tired from running that he bent over, his hands supporting his knees, panting heavily.
In the end, all she could do was raise her hand, point at him, and say some harsh words.
"You just wait!"
"Once I regain my powers, I'll challenge you to a duel!"
The word "duel" made Nafi glance in his direction.
"good."
Jiang Xi felt a pang of heartache seeing Mu Ling drenched in sweat.
It will take several days to reach the Lion's Roar tribe.
Mu Ling couldn't keep up with Nafi, but Jiang Xi would never abandon him and leave first.
After all, Mu Ling has lost her superpowers now, and if she encounters pollution, something bad will definitely happen.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Xi finally spoke to Nafiel.
"Nafer, could you bring Mu Ling along too? That way we can go faster."
She knew that the beastmen's bodies were only suitable for the female to sit on, so she quickly added.
"How about this? You hook your tail onto an animal hide, then let Mu Ling sit on the hide and slide on the snow?"
In this way, the orcs' principles would not be violated.
Mu Ling and Nafi were both stunned for a moment.
Originally, both of them were prepared to refuse, but the female master's method seemed to work.
Nafiel didn't want to be slowed down by Mu Ling, so he nodded.
"Can."
Mu Ling had never tried this mode of transportation before.
For a moment, he also became somewhat interested.
Furthermore, why not do something that would tire Naphel out?
Mu Ling took the largest animal hide off his back, spread it on the snow, and sat down on it.
With a flick of its tail, Nafiel pulled, and the animal hide carrying Mu Ling sped away in an instant.
Mu Ling gripped the animal hide tightly and shouted.
"Stimulate!!"
"Nafir, unleash your full speed! I am an orc with speed and displacement abilities! You are no match for me in terms of speed!"
Jiang Xi: "..."
She covered her face.
That's so cringeworthy.
Nafiel held the female master close, pressed her face against his chest, and carefully adjusted her collar and fur hat to make sure she was completely covered before speaking softly.
"The female master closes her eyes."
Jiang Xi closed her eyes subconsciously.
Then, the sound of something cutting through the air, accompanied by Mu Ling's shrill cry, instantly became a straight line.
Mu Ling clung tightly to the animal hide, nearly being flung away. His face was distorted and twisted by the fierce wind, completely losing his usual cool and handsome appearance.
He cursed inwardly.
That kid must have done it on purpose!!
