At this moment, You Ran slowly opened her eyes. The room was unfamiliar, and there were only two guards inside.
Turning to look at where I had put my eggs, I was surprised to find that they weren't there!
She sat up abruptly, frantically and anxiously pulling back the covers to search: "Where's my baby?"
Hu Zhong stood aside, wanting to go up and explain, so that she wouldn't keep searching around on the bed like that, since she was very weak after giving birth.
But he didn't know how to bring it up.
Are you suggesting we tell her: "Your Highness, your baby has been stolen by the Warcraftians?"
If she knew the truth now, she probably wouldn't be able to withstand the shock and would faint. That would be too dangerous for her right now.
Mu Youran searched around but couldn't find him, so she immediately focused her attention on Hu Zhong.
"Hu Zhong, where is my baby?"
Hu Zhong, who was suddenly called out, was startled and stood up straight, but he didn't dare to speak.
Seeing that he didn't even have the courage to look her in the eye, and instead lowered his head when she asked him a question, Mu Youran's heart jumped into her throat!
Where am I?
She changed the subject, suggesting that perhaps the whereabouts of her cub were related to the orc who had bumped into her!
Hu Zhong breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the question; he knew he could answer it.
"Your Highness, this is the Great Shaman's palace."
"The Great Shaman?"
Mu Youran was a little puzzled. The Great Witch was the one with the highest supernatural abilities in Beast King City, second only to the Beast God. How could he be so blind as to bump into her?
Perhaps the person who hit me simply brought me here.
Thinking about this, she felt that only this explanation made sense.
Who hit me?
At this point, Hu Zhong lowered his head again, but still managed to say with difficulty, "Yes, it was the Great Shaman..."
Mu Youran was very surprised. It really was that great shaman!
The fact that a high-ranking shaman from the beastman continent would bump into her while walking seemed utterly illogical to her.
Moreover, her baby was missing, and she clutched the blanket tightly to herself.
"So, my baby was taken away by the Great Shaman?"
Upon hearing this, Hu Zhong immediately looked up and noticed a sharp aura emanating from You Ran, realizing that she was angry.
No longer daring to conceal anything, he blurted out, "No, no, no, I'm not a great shaman."
If he doesn't explain and lets the princess continue to misunderstand, he will be held accountable if the high priest finds out.
"They're Warcraftians!"
"Warcraft?"
This answer, which was even more unbelievable than the one given by the Great Shaman, made Mu Youran even more incredulous.
"This is Beast King City, how come there are orcs here?"
Although she had never met any Warcraft people before, she had met Warcraft people through Long Yin, Ying Yao, and the Beast King.
I've heard they live in the far west, a place of bitter cold year-round, and their goal has always been to conquer the orc continent.
Unexpectedly, their influence has already infiltrated Beast King City.
No wonder the Beast King would ask her, someone he'd only met twice, for money; it seems the situation on the front lines is quite dire.
But why steal her baby?
Could it be that they mistook their own cub for Long Yin's cub and wanted to use their own cub as a hostage?
Thinking of this, she felt a chilling fear, as if her heart had fallen into an ice cellar, and her whole body trembled.
At this moment, a familiar figure walked in from outside the door, and Mu Youran was so surprised that she stood there stunned.
She was dressed in a snow-white animal skin dress, with a faint green headband on her head, as if she were enveloped in a white halo, and slowly walked towards her.
She opened her mouth slightly, but before she could say anything, tears welled up in her eyes. Suddenly, she threw off the covers, got out of bed, and ran towards him.
"Huang Yu!"
However, after taking only two steps, her knees buckled and she fell to the ground, but unexpectedly, a pair of warm hands caught her arms the next moment.
"careful."
The face was so familiar, and the voice was exactly the same, but the tone of voice revealed a sense of distance, which made Mu Youran's heart clench painfully.
Even so, You Ran was not unhappy; instead, she cried tears of joy.
Because she sensed that this person was real, not a dream.
For a long time, she dreamed of Huang Yu every night, but every time she ran towards him, he would disappear.
But now, not only has he not disappeared, he has also helped himself up.
That genuine concern, along with all the memories of the two of them in the past, instantly overlapped in You Ran's mind, and she couldn't help but reach out and hug his waist tightly.
"So you didn't die! You didn't die!"
"I thought I'd never see you again, Huang Yu, I miss you so much~"
Listening to the female clinging to him and babbling incessantly, he found himself not feeling any displeasure, but rather a sense of unease.
Scalding tears fell onto my chest, burning into my heart like embers.
She actually recognized herself, could even call out her own name, and she even had her own baby.
Thinking about this, the answer is self-evident. Although he has no memory of it, these answers all indicate that the relationship between the two of them was unusual.
And, to be honest, he felt a warmth and a sense of longing in that hug.
But she had just given birth and shouldn't stand for long periods, so he reached out and removed her hands from her waist.
"You just gave birth, you need to rest well."
A thought flickered in her mind, and she spoke her heart: "Don't cry."
He spoke those three words gently, and Mu Youran looked up at him, tears streaming down her face, but she smiled because she was certain that this was her Phoenix Feather.
Huang Yu took out the cracked egg from her spatial storage, took a deep breath, and composed herself.
"Although I don't know what our situation was before, this is my baby, and I will take responsibility for ensuring his safe hatching."
Mu Youran lowered her eyes slightly and immediately noticed the crack on the egg. Her joy just moments before instantly plummeted.
I reached out and took the egg, holding it tightly in my arms to examine it. Fortunately, the inner membrane was intact, but even so, it would be very difficult for it to hatch.
Although Huang Yu said he would make sure the baby came out safely, You Ran was still worried.
She handed him the egg, her heart clenching with worry: "Huang Yu, you must make sure our baby comes out safely."
Huang Yu reached out and took the egg. You Ran didn't need to tell him what to do; he knew exactly what to do.
Suddenly, his gaze fell on her arms, which were covered in burns, and the image that had been appearing in his dreams flashed into his mind.
The heart-wrenching pain instantly overwhelmed him with sorrow, and tears unknowingly dripped onto the egg.
Meeting You Ran's worried gaze, she asked with sadness and heartache, "Were we partners before?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Youran took a step back in disbelief. Recalling the distance in his voice at the beginning, she instantly understood.
Huang Yu had actually forgotten about her...
