Tu'er was furious, his beard bristling and eyes wide: "We sincerely invited the High Priestess to stay, how could we be plotting against her? Don't think too badly of our White Stone tribe!"
It was indeed Guo Xiaoxiao's idea; she was attracted to her abilities and her beauty, and wanted him to be with Ian.
Arthur: "You think I can't see through you? I've seen plenty of old fogies. They survive long enough to hold high positions in the tribe, and some have even usurped the chieftain's power. You should just enjoy your remaining years and mind your own business."
Tull was speechless: "That's still better than you. Humph, you ungrateful wretch, you'll regret it."
Arthur: "Don't stay here, nobody welcomes you, get out of here."
Guo Xiaoxiao: "I'm sorry, Tu'er, they were a bit harsh. Don't take it to heart, but I definitely won't stay. Forget about it."
Helpless, Tuer could only slink away.
…
On the day of parting, everyone got up early, eager to go back. Guo Xiaoxiao absolutely refused to form a mate in the tent, and everyone could hear her voice.
Do you still have any shame? After you've dealt with some things...
Lin Zhi plans to see them off, just like this time. I'm afraid I'll never see them again, but that's okay. As long as Qianye is there, I can go see her anytime. Guo Xiaoxiao can come too.
Qianye looked dejected: "I could have just asked a few mermaids to take them, why did I have to do it myself? Linzhi, you weren't deliberately trying to get rid of me, were you?"
Linzhi: "The ocean is unfathomably deep. If we encounter another underwater volcanic eruption, can you be brave enough to protect them instead of looking so worried?"
Will and the others were happy; they hadn't wanted to see Qianye for a long time, and it was good that she left. This trip would have taken two more days.
They traveled together for half a day and finally arrived at the seaside.
Guo Xiaoxiao glanced into the distance, somewhat disappointed. Although they hadn't spent much time together, the sudden separation was very sad.
Linzhi: "Xiaoxiao, we part ways here. Take care."
Guo Xiaoxiao: "Okay, remember to come visit me in the Northern Hemisphere sometime."
The sea was beautiful, and the sea breeze, carrying a fishy smell, brushed against her face. Accompanied by the salty waves, it dispelled Guo Xiaoxiao's melancholy mood.
Tours made one last effort
"Great Shaman, why don't you stay a few more days? There's no need to leave so soon."
Guo Xiaoxiao: "No, I really have to go back."
Sigh... Tuer gave up. Although Guo Xiaoxiao was leaving, they still had a friendship, so he came to see her off.
Qianye summoned several mermaids. The entire ocean belonged to the Great Ocean Clan, and mermaids were scattered throughout the land. Whenever he summoned them, mermaids would come ashore.
Guo Xiaoxiao said her final goodbye to them, waving from the beach before turning and leaving. She was afraid that seeing them would make her reluctant to part.
Goodbye, Xiaoxiao.
"Great Shaman, slow down!"
Goodbye, female.
Carlos stared coldly at the orcs: "In just a few days, they've actually developed feelings."
Randy: "No one can stand being apart."
Cang Jue: "We'd better leave quickly. The longer we stay here, the more dangerous it becomes. As for Ian, I don't believe him just because he says so. He doesn't like Xiaoxiao."
Guo Xiaoxiao: "Not everyone is like you, pursuing femaleness their whole life. Ian may have bigger dreams."
Cang Jue: "In the end, we still have to consider becoming partners."
The mermaids immediately targeted Guo Xiaoxiao, all wanting to carry her. They believed the females in the sea were the most beautiful, but the females on the shore were truly gorgeous.
Finally, Qianye carried them himself, dispelling their hopes. Perhaps it went smoothly; they didn't encounter a tsunami or an underwater volcano. They spent a whole day in the water before reaching the other side, and Guo Xiaoxiao felt her flesh was almost swollen from being submerged.
Chiba didn't linger. After saying goodbye, he returned to the seabed. It had been a long time since he had been back to his clan, so he decided to go back and check on the situation. He would then go to Linzhi the next day.
The Noah tribe migrated to the eastern continent, closer to the sea. From then on, they would occasionally drag Linzhi into the sea, much to their dismay.
…
Everything was going smoothly, but as expected, something unexpected is about to happen...
On their way back to Beast City, Guo Xiaoxiao and her companions noticed many familiar-looking orcs along the way.
Upon seeing Guo Xiaoxiao and the others, they all rushed over and almost knelt down.
Carlos stepped in front of Guo Xiaoxiao.
Who are you? What do you want?
Guo Xiaoxiao had been riding on Miken's back and had just gotten off to stretch her muscles when suddenly a group of orcs rushed out and charged at her.
Before she could even react, Carlos had already shielded her.
"We are orcs from Beast City, why are you only just returning?"
Arthur realized something must have happened.
"What happened? Tell me quickly!"
A disheveled orc said
"The previous Beast Kings arrived, but their men couldn't find you. After some inquiries, they learned you were all in the Southern Hemisphere. The day before yesterday, you led a group of orcs into Beast City and seized the Beast King's throne."
Guo Xiaoxiao: "This is outrageous! They're taking advantage of our vulnerability. We've only been gone for a few dozen days, and they've moved incredibly fast!"
Randy quickly asked, "I asked Abil to temporarily handle the affairs of Beast City for us. Where is he now?"
The orc replied, "They swore to resist to the death, refusing to hand over the Beast City to the Beast King and his men. They beat him up and locked him up."
Arthur's face turned ashen. It was indeed those bastards; how dare they bully those who stayed behind like this? It was clearly a slap in his face!
Randy's expression was also grim: "They let us go, and then they came running back. This time, we'll make sure they don't leave alive."
They had originally planned to rest, but upon hearing of the urgency of the situation, they all sped back to Beast City.
The journey was smooth and without trouble. Along the way, they encountered many orcs from the Beast City, and upon seeing Arthur and Randy, they all followed them back.
Upon arriving at the location, Arthur saw Aze and Simon locked in a fierce confrontation with other orcs. Arthur jumped over.
Their strength actually forced the orcs to retreat; no one expected them to return in the middle of the night.
The orcs guarding the area had been replaced by the Beast King's own men, and they all gasped in surprise when they saw Arthur and his companions return.
Simon and Aze breathed a sigh of relief when Randy returned.
"Randy, you're finally back! Those bastards seized the Beast King's throne while we were unconscious and forced the other orcs to surrender!"
Randy was furious: "How dare he be so arrogant! Abbil, where is he locked up?"
Simon: "I was locked in a stone house next to the castle. Luckily, I woke up in time, or I would have been locked up like Abil."
Randy patted Simon on the shoulder: "It's good that you're alright, leave the rest to me."
Cang Jue and Miksen also cared about their people.
Simon and Aze said they were all fine for the time being, but because of the large number of animals, they were afraid of disturbing them too much and triggering another battle between the beast gods.
The Beastmasters were all using appeasement tactics, trying to persuade them.
Arthur didn't understand. They were gone, not dead. Where did they get the audacity to come back?
"Did they bring other powerful orcs to back them up? I know those beast kings very well; they won't act rashly."
