You have to treat Qinglan well
Fu Ying looked at Jia and did not answer. Instead, he asked, "Are you now the leader of the Frost Plains Tribe?"
Jia smiled bitterly and bit her lip, saying, "What leader? He can only help the tribe do some things. The position of leader should be..." She paused, raised her eyes to look at Fu Ying, and whispered, "It should be Brother Qinglan's."
Qinglan has always been the most talented warrior in the Frost Plains Tribe. If he had not met the daughter of the leader of the Oasis Tribe at the tribal trade fair and been targeted by her, he would not have become an orc with broken star patterns, and the Frost Plains Tribe would not have suffered such a tragic fate and experienced so many terrible things. Now, many things have changed.
Although Brother Qinglan reshaped the star pattern and restored his strength, he also left the tribe.
He wanted to follow his female, and he didn't need the position of leader of the Frost Plains Tribe.
Fu Ying looked indifferent, with no expression on his face.
She glanced around the Frost Plains Tribe's cave and spoke calmly, "As you can see, disasters have been frequent in the North Mountain for a while now, affecting almost every tribe. Even the sea orcs have been forced to leave the deep sea and seek survival on shore. We can no longer stay here. No orc can escape the disaster."
"Of course, I'm not here to force the orcs of the Frostfield Tribe to leave their homeland and head outside the Triangle Sea."
"If you want to stay, I can set up a protective formation for you. At least it can provide you with some shelter in this small piece of land. But once you leave the territory, accidents may happen at any time. Understand?"
Fu Ying's voice was neither fast nor slow, and when it fell into Jia's ears, it calmed her violently beating heart.
She looked heavy for a long moment, then glanced cautiously at Fu Ying and whispered, "Can I ask why Brother Qinglan didn't come? What does he think? Does he want the Frost Plains tribe to follow you out of Beishan?"
It takes great courage for a tribe to leave the place where they have lived for generations.
When Qinglan was mentioned, a faint light flashed across Fu Ying's eyes.
She raised her eyes to look at Jia, her charming features revealing no emotion: "Qinglan respects your choice."
Going outside the Triangle Sea is not necessarily a good choice, and may be the beginning of something even more cruel. Staying in the North Mountain does not mean that they will be completely engulfed by the disaster. After all, once the strategy is completed and the Beast God's troubles are resolved, these disasters will also disappear. With the protective formation she has laid, at least she can ensure that the Frost Plains Tribe will not be completely annihilated.
This was the only thing she could do for Qinglan before leaving Beishan.
Jia's eyes turned red, he lowered his eyes and said softly: "I have to discuss this with my tribe."
Fu Ying nodded noncommittally and said thoughtfully, "Where is Qinglan's mother?"
Jia was slightly stunned, and silently led Fu Ying to a remote cave.
This place is a bit far from the center of the Frost Plain Tribe, and is almost close to the edge of the spirit stone she had laid out.
Fu Ying frowned slightly. Jia noticed her gaze and immediately explained, "Gemaru chose to live here himself. Brother Qinglan also knows this. The tribesmen have never bullied Gemaru."
As he was speaking, a thin old female came out of the cave.
When she saw Jia, her eyes and brows were gentle. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Fu Ying standing beside Jia.
Gemaru's pupils shrank and his palms clenched.
She naturally knew this female who had harmed Qinglan and given him a new life.
Jia stepped forward and whispered, "Gemaru, this is the female of Brother Qinglan. She came to the tribe specially to see you."
Fu Ying nodded slightly to Gemaru, and then said to Jia, "You go ahead and do your work. Give me an answer as soon as possible."
When talking about serious matters, Jia's expression became more serious.
She pursed her lips, nodded somewhat heavily, then turned and walked away quickly, her back looking a little hurried.
Gemaru looked at Fu Ying, her body tense. She didn't know what attitude to adopt towards the latter.
"Don't be nervous. I'm here just to check on you for Qinglan." Fu Ying stepped forward and looked at the old female who had protected Qinglan with her frail body. She was not actually that old, but she had lost her youthful beauty due to years of illness and hunger, and became as dry as firewood. Her male companions also seemed to have died from the plague.
From this point of view, "Fuying" is actually her enemy.
As expected, Gemaru's attitude was very cold. He said calmly, "No need. As long as you treat Qinglan well, I will be satisfied. If there is nothing else, you can leave first. It is not convenient for me to let you in here."
After saying that, Gemaru turned around and walked into the cave.
Fu Ying's eyes remained calm from beginning to end, and he was not angry at Gemaru's attitude.
After Gemaru entered the cave, Fu Ying took a few steps closer and waved her slender hand. A lot of food that could be preserved and easily digested appeared on the ground. She then said to the cave, "These are what Qinglan asked me to bring. I hope you take care of yourself."
After saying that, she turned and left.
Not long after Fu Ying left, Gemalu slowly came out of the cave.
She looked at the food all over the floor, her eyes widened in surprise, and then she thought of the small bags that Qinglan had shown her, which could store a lot of food. These were left by Fu Ying, a witch favored by the Beast God.
Gemaru had a complicated expression and pursed his lips.

Fu Ying sat in Jia's cave for a while, and soon footsteps were heard outside.
Jia came over with a few older snow leopard orcs. He was a little embarrassed and whispered, "They have something they want to ask you."
Fu Ying raised his eyebrows slightly and nodded, "Ask."
A white-haired snow leopard orc said, "Wu, I want to know, when the orcs of the Frost Plains Tribe leave the North Mountain and head for the Triangle Sea, is Qinglan willing to be our leader? Can he lead us?"
They can trust Fu Ying and follow her, but they don't want her to lead the Frostfield Tribe.
Snow leopard orcs are extremely proud in their bones. What's more, Fu Ying once hurt the Frost Plains Tribe. Even though she made up for her mistakes and became Qinglan's most beloved female, it did not prevent them from having some small thoughts in their hearts.
Fu Ying looked at them and said calmly, "No."
Qinglan has been taken outside the Triangle Sea, so it is naturally impossible for him to lead the Frost Plain Tribe in person.
Hearing this, several snow leopard orcs looked at each other with somewhat ugly expressions.
Jia also fell silent, and his fingers hanging at his sides clenched slightly.
Fu Ying looked at the people whose faces changed drastically and added quietly, "Although Qinglan cannot be your leader, I can guarantee your safety on the way to the Triangle Sea."
Her words did not ease the expressions of the snow leopard beastmen.
In a moment, they made a decision.
"We don't want to leave the land where we've lived for generations."
Fu Ying nodded slightly to show that he understood.
She stood up and walked outside. Jia followed closely behind her and said hesitantly, "You just said..."
"Don't worry, I will set up a protective formation in the Frost Plains Tribe. As long as you don't leave this area, you can ensure your safety. I don't want Qinglan to see his tribe gone when he returns home."
