"Those brother and sister have been targeting Daqing for a while now. Maybe they're the ones who kidnapped him. How dare they kidnap my brother! No way, I have to go and rescue Daqing!"
Su Jianyuan was furious.
“Wait, brother, we don’t know the situation of the Green Eagle Tribe right now. If we alert them, they might try to kill Da Qing.” Su Tang said calmly.
There must be something wrong with this tribe.
Daqing never provokes tribes. Normal tribes would not attack wandering orcs, let alone capture them and bring them back to their tribe.
"So what do we do now?"
Su Tang glanced at the orcs around her. After traveling for six days, everyone's faces were full of fatigue.
She pondered for a moment, then looked at the boy on the ground. "Brother, let's bandage his wounds first."
...
Outside the Green Eagle Tribe.
"Xiaofeng, how did you get hurt? Who are those two? Why did you bring strange orcs back to the tribe?"
Under the ancient tree, a blue eagle beastman guarding the tribe frowned as he looked at Su Tang and Hu Shen.
Su Tang changed into an inconspicuous black animal skin; it would have been too conspicuous to come out wearing white cotton.
She was dressed very conservatively, with only her face exposed, which was the proper attire for a female during the monsoon season.
Hu Shen stood behind her, and even without speaking, his presence was hard to ignore.
Xiao Feng, clutching his bloodied arm with one hand, quickly explained:
"These are friends I just met. I accidentally went too far while chasing prey today and encountered danger. They saved me."
The blue eagle orc guarding the tribe frowned.
"Xiaofeng, as you know, the chief doesn't allow males from other races to enter the tribe. Not long ago, the chief even lost his temper because of a foreign orc."
Upon hearing this, Xiaofeng nodded quickly and smiled ingratiatingly:
“I’ll let them stay here for one night. They’ll leave tomorrow. There are no tribes around here. They saved my life, and I can’t let them live in the forest.”
"Please be lenient with me, just consider it a favor."
Xiao Feng clasped his hands together in a pleading gesture, his face showing a sincere expression.
"I didn't realize you were such a loyal and righteous guy. Okay."
The orc guarding the tribe laughed heartily and patted him on the shoulder.
He glanced at Su Tang, chuckled, and gave her a "I understand" look.
"Xiaofeng, this female is really good-looking. Keep up the good work, if she can stay in our tribe, I'll benefit from it too, hehe..."
He patted Xiaofeng's shoulder harder, smiling ambiguously.
Xiao Feng clearly felt the temperature behind him drop sharply, and a chill ran down his spine.
He quickly interrupted the other person.
"I know, I know, then I'll take them inside first."
After saying that, he beckoned Su Tang and Hu Shen into the tribe.
With Xiaofeng leading the way, the two entered the Qingying tribe without any obstacles.
When they reached a secluded spot, Xiaofeng stopped and looked around.
“I’ve already brought you in. You…you said you’d let me go.” He looked cautiously at Su Tang and Hu Shen.
"Stop talking nonsense, you know what we're looking for." Su Tang looked at him coldly.
In order not to alert the enemy, she and Hu Shen decided to first infiltrate the Qingying tribe to find out about Da Qing's situation.
The original plan was for Su Jianyuan and Hu Shen to come together, but the Qingying tribe does not welcome outsider beastmen. Unless they are female, they will not be allowed into the tribe.
Su Tang had to take matters into her own hands.
Xiao Feng glanced at Su Tang, whose face was as cold as ice, and hesitated for a moment. "I... I really don't know where the orc you're looking for is. Even if I did know, I wouldn't be able to get in given my status."
He had barely finished speaking when he felt a tightness around his neck.
Hu Shen grabbed his neck with one hand, his face filled with murderous intent.
"have no idea?"
"Wait, wait, I can take you to the place where I got the things. There are many things there that I've never seen before."
Xiao Feng shuddered and hurriedly shouted.
"Take us there." Hu Shen released him.
Xiao Feng scrambled ahead to lead the way, daring not to object any further.
The Qingying tribe is located in an ancient forest.
The ancient trees here are incredibly tall, exuding an ancient and weathered atmosphere.
Su Tang walked beside Hu Shen, looking up at the ancient trees around her that were almost as big as tall buildings, and a strange feeling rose in her heart.
The place gave her a creepy, eerie feeling, which was very unpleasant.
After walking for a short while, Xiaofeng stopped behind a tree.
"That black thing, that's where I got it, you can see for yourselves."
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Tang heard several arguing sounds coming from ahead.
"I saw it first!"
"Bullshit! What I got first is mine!"
"Don't fight over it! This white animal hide is for my partner to wear, hehe..."
"Keep your voices down! If the clan chief finds out we came here to steal, he'll skin us alive!"
"If you don't tell, and I don't tell, with so many things here, the clan leader will never know that something is missing..."
Su Tang listened to the sound and peeked out from behind the tree.
Three young orcs, a few years older than Xiao Feng and looking to be in their early twenties, were searching for something on the ground.
Several large animal skin bags were thrown aside, their contents scattered all over the ground.
Cotton fabric, clothes, dried fruit, dried meat, and bottles and jars of seasonings.
Su Tang's face immediately darkened. Those things were obviously from a farm, and they were even handmade by her mother!
This tribe must have captured Daqing and intercepted everything he brought!
Su Tang's face showed an angry expression. Just then, a large hand was placed on her shoulder and patted her gently, as if to soothe her emotions.
The next second, a figure flashed past.
"Who are you!"
"save……"
Before they could react, the three young orcs collapsed to the ground.
The things in his hands were scattered all over the ground.
"You...you killed them?! The clan chief will find out, you..." Xiao Feng looked at Hu Shen with a terrified expression.
"Don't worry, they're not dead, they just fainted," Su Tang glanced at him and explained.
Tiger God is not a bloodthirsty beast; he won't kill someone at the slightest provocation. Besides, leaving bloodstains here would make them more likely to be exposed.
Su Tang knew without a doubt that Hu Shen had simply knocked them unconscious.
"What do we do now? They've already seen his face. If they wake up, they'll tell the clan leader!" Xiao Feng said, his face pale and his expression tense.
Su Tang and Hu Shen exchanged a glance, then looked at Xiao Feng with unspoken understanding.
"That depends on you."
Hu Shen found some vines from somewhere and used them to tie up the three young orcs, gag them, and blindfold them.
It was thrown in front of Xiaofeng.
“They didn’t see you. Once we leave the Green Eagle Tribe, you can release them. Find a place to hide them,” Su Tang said.
She just wanted to find Daqing and take him out; she wasn't a ruthless executioner who would kill every orc she saw.
Xiao Feng's forehead was covered in sweat, and he nodded with a bitter face, "I understand."
