The next morning, Yingyao got up early and looked at You Ran, who was still sleeping in bed, feeling very reluctant to leave her.
This parting means it will be more than twenty days before we meet again.
I pulled his little face out from under the covers and gently stroked it with my rough thumb.
"You Ran, I'm leaving."
Mu Youran felt the warmth of his fingertips, slowly opened her hazy eyes, and saw that he had already dressed up, wearing a pure black animal skin skirt that reached his knees, and his hands were slightly cool.
The thought of the two of them having to separate temporarily made her feel a little choked up.
She stretched her arms out from under the covers and hugged his slightly cool waist tightly: "Wait for me to get up and see you off!"
As she spoke, she quickly got up and put on the white animal skin skirt that Ying Yao had prepared beforehand.
Reluctantly, they escorted him to the riverbank. In fact, Yingyao could have set off directly from the cave entrance.
But he was also reluctant to leave, and wanted to stay as long as possible.
We've already walked so far; if we don't move now, we'll be late.
He turned around and hugged You Ran tightly: "I'm leaving!"
Mu Youran felt the strong heartbeat in his chest.
"Be careful on the road and take good care of yourself."
Ying Yao released her, gave her a deep look, then spread his huge wings and flew into the clouds.
Seeing him leave in such a hurry, Mu Youran quickly shouted towards the sky.
"Make sure you eat well!"
Words filled with concern and worry drifted into Ying Yao's ears on the wind. He turned his head to look at the small dot on the ground, and then let out a long eagle cry.
Upon hearing that familiar voice, Mu Youran immediately beamed with joy, for she knew that Ying Yao had heard her words and was responding to her.
"Hey, who's this, getting all sentimental so early in the morning?"
As soon as Canglan arrived, she heard You Ran shout a sentence, followed by the cry of an eagle. It was obvious to anyone that she was talking to Ying Yao.
Suddenly hearing that annoying voice, Mu Youran was instantly annoyed. She glared at Canglan who was walking towards her, then walked around him, not wanting to get too close.
However, Canglan took a long stride and blocked her path, crossing his arms and giving a wicked smile.
"Heh, why are you in such a hurry to leave? Are you afraid I'll cause you trouble?"
Blocked, Mu Youran quickly took a step back to keep her distance from him. She didn't want to go through what happened last time again.
"Get out of my way!"
Canglan smiled, a beautiful smile playing on his lips: "You can move aside, unless..."
Before he could finish speaking, he looked at You Ran with a calculating and shrewd gaze, from top to bottom and from bottom to top.
The blatant gaze made Mu Youran very uncomfortable.
They're still playing these ambiguous games.
He chuckled dismissively and raised his hand, pinching the first little joint of his index finger with his thumb.
"You're only this tiny!"
Upon hearing this, the male in front of him visibly blushed instantly, his eyes practically spitting fire.
"Luo Bai, I'm here!"
Just as Canglan was about to explode, he suddenly heard her call Luo Bai. He quickly turned around to look, but by the time he turned back, she had already run away!
Seeing that she was heavily pregnant, her running posture was particularly awkward, and she would occasionally look back at him.
They looked so panicked, as if they were some kind of ferocious beast.
She couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle: "What a bold female!"
He looked at her with such an aggressive gaze, it seemed he had really offended her, which was why she attacked him like that.
However, he admitted that this move did provoke him, since no male is indifferent to size.
Especially since he was teased by a female!
"Canglan, you seem a bit distracted lately."
The two had a date and were discussing some things here. Canglan came first, and he would come later to avoid being seen by others.
Unexpectedly, upon his arrival, he saw Canglan making things difficult for a female.
As a fellow male, he naturally knew what Canglan was thinking.
Interrupted by his clan leader, Canglan withdrew his smile.
You've misjudged!
Both of them knew whether they were right or wrong; it was just a matter of whether the person involved wanted to admit it. Yu Shu was also a shrewd person and knew that this was not the time to press for answers.
After all, he needs this strategist if he wants to make a comeback!
"They're going to Yunmengze to trade tomorrow. Most of the main players will be out then, which is a good opportunity for us to make our move!"
Speaking of this, a sinister look appeared in Yu Shu's eyes. He had had enough of being a useless clan leader!
In fact, this was a plan he and Canglan had discussed beforehand: to take advantage of their internal weakness and kill the Sunset Clan Chief to take his place!
But Canglan doesn't think that way now, after all, the Sunset Tribe is not the same as before!
Even if they could replace them now, the Sunset Tribe would be doomed, with no future to speak of.
What Canglan wants is not just a title; he wants power and real authority.
He didn't want to get his hands dirty if it was just a small tribal chief position!
"The plan needs to be changed."
Upon hearing this, Yu Shu was somewhat puzzled. Why did things have to change at the last minute after they were agreed upon?
He said anxiously, "Why? This was decided a long time ago!"
Canglan glanced indifferently at the brainless Yushu. If he didn't need Yushu to stabilize the Fengyu tribe's orcs, he would have flipped the table long ago!
"Do you think the two of us can manage the jewelry making and pottery production of the Sunset Tribe?"
Fish Tree couldn't understand this. It was the orcs from the Sunset Tribe who were doing all the work. They weren't killing these people, so what couldn't they do?
"If they don't work, we won't give them meat to eat, that will make them afraid not to work!"
Canglan really didn't want to explain this foolish statement to him, but unfortunately, he was still useful to her now.
"Three hundred orcs from the Sunset Tribe, and just a few of us, do you think we can suppress them by force?"
"Even if we could, when Luo Bai and the others return, that would be our death day!"
That was very clear, and Yushu finally understood.
Yes, if that's the case, they really won't be able to deal with these orcs.
However, he felt heartbroken to have missed such a good opportunity.
"So, we're just leaving it at that?"
Canglan sneered: "How could that be?"
I was too lazy to explain to him anymore. Talking to a stupid person would only waste a lot of breath. If I could say less, he would definitely not say a word more than necessary.
He turned and strode away, not wanting to stay any longer.
