Chapter 416 is all about pressure?



A tall man in the crowd glanced coldly at the closed door and sneered.

As long as he gets things done for his masters, he can gain a great merit and enjoy endless wealth and honor from then on.

Wen E was filled with anger.

"You Ran, let me go out and beat them up!"

Mu Youran took a sip of hot water: "And then?"

Hearing this, he tilted his head back and said, "And then, and then..."

He hadn't decided what to do next.

Xuanfeng added two pieces of charcoal to the fire: "Then they'll say we panicked and indiscriminately killed innocent people to protect Wuyou."

Wen E frowned. He had forgotten how powerful public opinion could be. These people were deliberately brought in by those powerful families to annoy them.

If I were to actually get into a fight, I'd probably be playing right into their hands, and then even if I were in the right, I'd be in the wrong.

However, he felt stifled staying cooped up at home like that.

"Are we just going to let them insult us like this?"

And they used such awful language!

Mingming Wuyou is the son of a great shaman, and his status is comparable to that of Longyin, yet he is being insulted like this.

Fortunately, You Ran and Xuan Feng had anticipated this, and had them leave last night.

Otherwise, given Wuyou's temper, he might really go out and start a fight, which would solidify those accusations.

You Ran: "Don't rush, wait a little longer."

The pressure here is relatively low; the most severe pressure is on the Beast King's side.

Huang Yu only made a brief appearance at the Great Witch Hall to show that Wu You was his son, after which the people fell silent.

After all, this orc continent can exist without a Beast King, but it cannot exist without a Great Witch or a Beast God.

Otherwise, their orc continent would probably have become the victims of the orcs.

However, Falcon Clan Chief Feiyun said, "Great Shaman, even if he is your son, you cannot show favoritism!"

"That's a monster. If it goes berserk, wouldn't it wipe out our Beast King City?"

Upon hearing this, the other two clan leaders echoed his sentiments.

“Yes, Great Shaman, since you can’t bear to part with him, why not put him in some other remote place? When you want to see him, you can go to him. There’s no need to keep him in Beast King City.”

Huang Yu glanced coldly at the Falcon Clan Chief: "Do you think this witch can't even control a little brat?"

Upon hearing this, the men felt a chill run down their spines.

How are they supposed to answer that? If they say no, wouldn't that be a slap in their own face?

If he says yes, but then he quits, they'll be the ones who suffer in the end.

The three of them immediately lowered their heads, unsure of what to say.

Huang Yu put her hands behind her back and gently rubbed her thumb and forefinger together: "I can take care of my own little one. But you all, don't let your own yard catch fire without you even knowing it!"

After saying that, he turned around and went back to the main hall. The door was gently closed by the guards, instantly cutting off the noise from outside.

The entire hall was grand yet warm, and his heart ached uncontrollably.

If he could, he would rather Wuyou not be his child, so that he wouldn't have to suffer so much.

Last night, when I saw him off, he didn't say a word, but I could tell from his eyes that he understood everything.

Think about Ping An, who is the same age, but is still a clueless little kid, while Wu You seems so precocious.

If I can't protect his safety at this point, then I shouldn't be his father!

As for the Beast King and Dragon Shadow, they were even more decisive.

They simply refused to open the door or meet anyone!

No matter how much people outside called, he wouldn't go out.

Long Yin paced anxiously, "Father, what should we do? Are we just going to leave them waiting outside like this?"

The Beast King took off his thick animal skin coat to cool off, and then gave him a disdainful look.

"Why don't you go out and talk to them?"

Long Yin wanted to, but he didn't know where to begin.

The Beast King said unhurriedly, "Hey, stop shaking! I'm in a hurry too!"

"But rushing won't solve anything. All we can do now is wait and wait for news from the outside!"

He then turned to Hu Ben and said, "Hu Ben, go and bring them some firewood to warm them up, so they don't get cold."

"Don't send charcoal, it's quite expensive."

Hu Ben's lips twitched. What's so expensive about this thing? Others might not know, but does that mean he doesn't know either?

However, it's not expensive, but it's quite troublesome to transport it back from the gold mine. Besides, the charcoal is warm to use, and most importantly, it doesn't produce any dust or smoke.

Such a wonderful thing is not worthy of those ungrateful people outside.

They deserve to be burned as wood!

He then left from the back, and had someone carry a large pile of wet wood and dump it in front of Shuming and his men.

"Elders, I'm so sorry, the Beast King is ill and will not be able to see you for the time being."

"But don't worry, the Beast King is considerate of you. He specially sent me to bring you some firewood to keep warm, so you don't get cold."

Chief Tengshe was already shivering from the cold; there was nothing he could do, as his beast form was a Tengshe, which was most afraid of the cold.

Seeing a large pile of firewood arrive, he immediately ran over and lit it. The fire did start, but the smoke was really thick.

Soon, the entire square was filled with choking white smoke.

Even so, these people still forced themselves to approach the fire; there was no other way, the damn weather was just too cold.

Hu Ben stood aside, glanced at their disheveled appearance, smiled quietly, and then left.

Shu Ming glanced coldly at the departing Hu Ben; the real show was just beginning.

Don't think that hiding will solve the problem!

Having received the news in the middle of the night, Beili and Ma Wanjin put up signs early the next morning offering high prices for animal hides and meat.

The orcs of Beast King City were already wealthy, and many families had surplus animal hides and meat, which they then put out to sell.

In the blink of an eye, they acquired a huge amount of supplies from the mountain.

Three days later, the number of people coming to sell supplies was visibly reduced.

Ten days later.

However, the entrance to Ma Wanjin and Beili's shop was blocked by orcs.

"Open the door!"

"Open the door now!"

However, by this time, Ma Wanjin and Beili had already packed up their things in the shop and hidden themselves away.

No one will open the door.

These people used to insult Wuyou everywhere, calling him a bastard and saying that the princess and her group were colluding with the Beast King.

How dare you come knocking on my door again now?

At this moment, Qiong and Lang Da, who had been mixed in with the crowd, shouted loudly.

"grass!"

"They've gone into hiding! What do we do now?!"

Seeing that the time was ripe, Qiong immediately shouted, "Let's go find Chief Tengshe and Chief Falcon. They're the ones who sent us to cause trouble. We can't eat meat or have animal hides now, so they should be responsible!"

This statement was immediately met with approval from everyone.

yes.

They agreed on two gold coins a day, and now that ten days have passed, it's time to collect the debt!
