At Ying Tai's command, all the other Azure Eagle Beastmen flew forward with all their might.
Yesterday's dinner really spurred them on. If they couldn't eat as much as the others, they had to at least outpace them in speed and show them what they were capable of.
Autumn is a windy season, and the Azure Eagle Orcs were not having an easy time flying against the wind. Coupled with not sleeping well the night before, they quickly became exhausted.
But seeing Su Tang and the others being left far behind, they gritted their teeth and persevered.
At noon, Su Tang and the others stopped to rest for a while.
Su Tang went to relieve herself in the bushes and took three chickens from the pasture. On her way back, she gave Su Jianyuan a wink.
A short while later, Su Jianyuan returned with three chickens whose necks had been twisted off.
A chicken is as big as an ostrich.
"I just ran into some pheasants and caught a few. Luckily, we don't have to hunt tonight," Su Jianyuan explained casually.
Wild animals roamed the forest, but no one paid any attention. After all, Su Jianyuan was skilled enough to catch a few prey while he was out urinating.
These past few days, Niu Li has been looking at Su Jianyuan with new respect, and he sincerely admires this orc who doesn't look very strong but is incredibly capable.
The group ate some simple fruit and dried food at noon to replenish their energy before continuing their journey.
Daqing was in the sky, guiding the group along an easy path. Niu Li charged ahead with his horns, while Su Jianyuan behind him did not have to exert any effort at all.
By evening, when Su Tang and her group found a place to camp and rest, Ying Yiyi and her group of orcs were exhausted.
Most importantly, when they landed, they found that they were not far from Su Tang. They flew with all their might for a whole day, but they still couldn't shake off her!
This infuriated Ying Yiyi and Ying Tai.
"Brother, why are they still following behind!" Ying Yiyi stamped her foot, feeling like she had been slapped in the face.
"They must have chased us desperately. Yiyi, let's ignore them and find a place to rest first. I want to see how many days they can keep chasing us like this." Ying Tai said through gritted teeth, his face ashen.
"Okay, brother, the wind was too strong last night. Find a place where the wind is less strong to rest today," Ying Yiyi said coquettishly.
"I'll listen to Yiyi," Yingtai agreed with a smile, then turned to find a place to set up camp and rest.
After flying around the area, Eagle Tai quickly returned.
"Yiyi, there's a canyon ahead, at the bottom of a cliff. The wind won't blow in there, so let's rest there. There definitely won't be any wind blowing on you tonight."
Ying Yiyi was very satisfied when she heard this.
"Then let's go first, reserve the spot, and not let that female go in."
The group of Azure Eagle Beastmen quickly reached the bottom of the cliff, claimed the most comfortable and sheltered spots, and even found a small cave for Ying Yiyi to stay in.
...
Seeing that it was getting late, Su Tang and the others decided to find a place to set up camp.
They walked leisurely for a day, thinking they had distanced themselves from those birdmen, and quickly put them out of their minds.
Daqing swooped down from the sky and said to Sutang, "Atang, Ayuan, there's a canyon ahead. It's the perfect place to rest at night. Let's go there!"
As a wandering beastman who grew up in the forest, Daqing is very good at finding shelter.
“Okay, let’s go take a look first.” Su Jianyuan nodded and asked Daqing to lead the way to the canyon.
Su Tang felt the air was a bit stuffy, and the four babies in her arms had been listless and restless since the afternoon.
As we approached the canyon, there was a stretch of road without any branches or leaves to block the view. Looking up, we could see layers of clouds in the sky, thick and dense, glowing crimson in the sunset.
The clouds in the distance seemed to be falling to the ground, to the top of their heads, giving them a strong sense of oppression.
The chirping of insects and birds around us gradually decreased, and the quiet forest made us feel even more depressed.
Su Tang had a bad feeling and her attention was fixed on the sky.
Soon the group reached the bottom of the cliff.
But little did they know that the place had already been occupied by orcs.
Daqing excitedly discovered a cave. "Atang, there's a cave over there. You can sleep in it with Sibao tonight."
Daqing didn't know what sharing was before, but after spending a lot of time with Su Guodong and his wife, as well as Su Jianyuan and his brother, he has developed a habit of always saving the best things for Atang and Zaizai first.
Before he could finish speaking, Da Qing was stopped by several Azure Eagle Beastmen.
"This is our territory. If you want to rest, go somewhere else."
Su Tang snapped out of her daze and saw Ying Tai, sporting huge dark circles under his eyes, walking over with a smile.
Niu Li glanced at the remaining space and said unhappily, "You only have a dozen or so orcs, do you think you can fill this place with sleeping quarters? Are you going to take it all?"
Isn't this blatantly preventing them from resting?
There's enough room for a hundred or so orcs to sleep at the bottom of this cliff!
"I'm sorry, Yiyi prefers to sleep in a spacious place and doesn't like to squeeze in with other orcs. You can look for other places instead." Ying Tai felt he had regained his face and smiled amiably.
After saying that, his gaze lingered on Su Tang's face, a lewd glint flashing in his eyes.
"However, if you, female, want to rest here, that's not impossible. As long as you join my team and give me this male, I promise to protect you all the way."
After waiting all day, I finally had a chance.
He refused to believe that this female, exhausted after a long day, wouldn't want a comfortable place to sleep.
He has over a dozen orcs taking care of him, he feels so safe! No female would refuse him.
"Protect your grandma's leg! You think you can just take over the territory just because it's in your name? Why don't you piss on it to mark your territory!" Su Jianyuan's fist hardened, and he grabbed the animal skin on Ying Tai's chest with one hand.
He knew that there was no reasoning in the ancient continent; whoever had the strongest fist was right.
When it comes to fists, he has never lost.
As soon as Su Jianyuan made his move, the Azure Eagle Beastmen behind Ying Tai all assumed attack stances, their eagle eyes sharp and piercing.
Niu Li and Da Qing weren't afraid at all; they unleashed their full power, instantly creating a tense atmosphere.
Just then, Su Tang suddenly interrupted.
"Brother, let's not rest here, let's find somewhere else."
"Sister!" Su Jianyuan was a little annoyed; he wasn't afraid of these jerks.
“Brother, let’s find another place.” Su Tang looked at Su Jianyuan with a determined gaze.
Su Jianyuan was taken aback, but quickly realized that his sister was not a weak person, so there must be a reason for her to say that.
He then shook off Ying Tai, snorted coldly, and stopped confronting him.
Niu Li and Da Qing both listened to Su Tang, so seeing this, they didn't ask any more questions and prepared to look for other places.
Su Tang looked at Ying Tai with a half-smile, "We don't like resting with orcs who mark their territory everywhere. You guys enjoy yourselves here."
