The Yi tribe launched a campaign against the Zhanghuang tribe, conscripting soldiers from the entire tribe three times. In fact, they had already mobilized nearly 90% of the Yi tribe's strength. Of course, not all of this strength was lost; a large number of soldiers were divided into two teams to fight against the Liang and Shu tribes respectively.
However, the B race definitely lost more than half of its insectoid population in this chaos. Moreover, the remaining insectoids, such as the Sleeping Guardians, had no hope of returning to the city, which resulted in an unprecedented weakening of the B race's strength.
Therefore, when Lady Lian entered Little Fei City and saw the city completely silent, with rows of still mud pillars and the empty sky between them, she couldn't help but think of the actual situation faced by the Yi tribe. The emptiness of the tribe was presented to her in a very direct way.
"I wonder how things went between Tongxuan and Pudu. If possible, capture some men so the army can withdraw."
Lady Lian murmured that although the army's retreat gave her some comfort, she also understood that the Yi tribe would inevitably go through a long and dangerous period of decline.
After a brief rest in Little Fei City, Lady Lian continued her journey back to Mother City. The secondary mother hive of Little Fei City wanted to send a few warriors to accompany her for protection, but Lady Lian refused. There were simply not many warriors left in the entire city, and the consequences of a surprise attack by alien races were unimaginable.
After traveling for several days, all the cities they passed were in the same situation. There was still no news from Tongxuan and Pudu, and Qin Su was nowhere to be seen. Meanwhile, Muyi City was already in sight.
Lady Lian was concerned about the situation of the Yi tribe, while Wang Yao had been paying close attention to the coincidences between Commander Lang and Jinxiu. Not long after Jinxiu was heavily protected and hidden, Wang Yao discovered that she had left the mud pillar building again, suggesting that her entry was not simply for hiding.
Contrary to Wang Yao's expectations, Lang Shuai was not coincidentally led to Muyi City. Judging from the interface panel and Wang Yao's limited knowledge of the Zhanghuang tribe, he was certain that Lang Shuai had entered the Huang tribe smoothly.
After all, the cities of the Yi tribe and the Zhanghuang tribe each had their own unique characteristics, so Wang Yao wouldn't mistakenly confuse the Zhanghuang tribe with the Yi tribe and thus miss the location of Commander Lang. Commander Lang was also very careful in his movements within the Huang tribe, and his journey went unnoticed by the tribe members.
This matter also greatly puzzled Wang Yao. After all, it was the first time he had been involved in a marriage that required five coincidences, so he couldn't help but be suspicious. He was afraid that once Lang Shuai found his mud-seed wife and children, he would disappear into some deep mountain forest and become a wandering demon who robbed and plundered.
If that were the case, Wang Yao would really be unable to face Lady Lian, and it would also have an extremely negative impact on the investigation team's work in the demon realm. After much hesitation, he decided to keep it from Lady Lian for the time being and figure out a solution after seeing the specific results.
Fortunately, judging from the interface panel, Lang Shuai hadn't found his target yet and was always wandering around aimlessly. Wang Yao noticed that he would often fly for a while and then suddenly land on the ground, stand there with his head down in deep thought, and sometimes even bend down in distress.
Jinxiu's situation is much more stable. Since that day, she has mostly stayed in a large room, spending her days cultivating, dressing up, and grooming.
Wang Yao paid far less attention to Jinxiu than Lang Shuai. After all, she was a beautiful young woman, and she was alone in her room in a place that resembled a women's kingdom. Therefore, this future mother of the Yi clan often did not care much about her clothes.
When it came to cool moments and accidental exposure, it happened quite frequently. Whenever Wang Yao saw those scenes, his feelings would become very complicated, and he would feel a deep sense of guilt towards Caixia. So even though he knew that Jinxiu was just a demon, Wang Yao rarely observed her.
As the city of the Mother City drew near, Wang Yao heard Lady Lian let out a long sigh. Looking at the mud pillars appearing on the horizon, he couldn't help but feel a deep sense of emotion, recalling his visit with Tong Xuan not long ago, which felt like a lifetime ago.
Without realizing it, he casually picked up the interface panel and looked at it, then nodded slightly. Beside Lang Shuai, there was a companion flying with him.
He had already discovered this companion before. After all, Lang Shuai was the former patriarch of the Zhanghuang clan, so finding a follower in the clan wouldn't be difficult for him.
His companion was a burly man, clearly not female, and even less likely to be his Muscovy wife. But who knows if it was a coincidence that Commander Lang met this fan?
Wang Yao didn't want to think too much. He turned his head and glanced at Princess Jinxiu again, only to find her changing clothes. Her fair skin was dazzling. Wang Yao felt a chill and quickly closed the interface.
Upon reaching the outskirts of Mother City, Lady Lian slowed down. The Mud Pillar Forest in the distance slowly appeared on the horizon. After a while, several black dots flew towards them from among the mud pillars. Those must have been the B-clan warriors of Mother City sensing Lady Lian's return and coming out to greet her.
Further ahead, the figures of the Yi tribe warriors gradually became clearer, and the leader was none other than Princess Jinxiu. It turned out that she had just changed her clothes in order to come out and greet her mother, the Queen.
Wang Yao spotted Princess Jinxiu, and Lady Lian obviously saw her too. She unconsciously quickened her pace, and could clearly see the smiling face on Princess Jinxiu's face. But unexpectedly, they suddenly stopped in the distance, and Lady Lian stopped almost at the same time.
Immediately afterwards, Princess Jinxiu turned around, led several warriors, and flew back to Muyi City at high speed, leaving only one warrior to fly towards Lady Lian.
"Something's happened in the city, let's go take a look." Lady Lian said calmly, her speed suddenly increasing.
"We just received news from within the city that they've discovered a spy named Zhang Huang, and he's of a high rank. Sister Jinxiu is worried that the women in the city won't be able to handle him, so she's going to check it out first," the warrior reported to Lady Lian. Lady Lian nodded her large head and continued flying towards Muyi City without replying.
