After crossing a mountain, the sun had completely set.
Sitting on the back of the silver wolf, Shengxia thought excitedly, "Finally, we've reached the last stop. I need to sell everything quickly and go home. I'm already thinking about our big villa back home."
She blinked her bright almond-shaped eyes, looked up and gazed ahead at the vast, seemingly endless tribe where fires flickered.
A faint aroma of roasted meat wafted over, and Shengxia's eyes lit up. "Is the White Tiger Tribe just ahead?"
This tribe seems to be quite wealthy.
Other tribes don't eat dinner on nights during the snowy season; in order to conserve food, everyone goes to bed early.
At this hour, they should be singing a mix of bass and soprano...
Looking around the tribe, most of the orcs' homes were cooking, so it seems the White Tiger tribe isn't short of food.
It's good to have enough food!
Thinking of this, Sheng Xia's almond-shaped eyes curved into a smile. Their tribe's medicines and sweaters would definitely sell well; they could clear out all the hemostatic and fever-reducing medicines in their spatial storage!
It would be a shame if it lost its medicinal effect after being left for too long.
"Yes, it's the White Tiger Tribe." Jiao Su turned her head, a warm glint in her eyes as she looked at Sheng Xia, and answered earnestly.
A familiar, cool fragrance wafted over on the breeze. Sheng Xia, her expression one of blissful intoxication, took a deep breath and opened her arms to Jiao Su.
"Susu, hug me~" Her Susu smells so good.
"Okay." Hearing his partner's sweet voice, Jiao Su's calm golden eyes showed a smile, and he stretched out his long arms to pull her down and hold her in his arms.
A gentle breeze blew by, and a sika deer hopped and skipped over. Sheng Xia's eyes lit up, and she looked up in amazement to take a closer look.
The sika deer had long, thick fur that was a beautiful chestnut brown, with barely noticeable white spots on its body.
With such long fur, it would be very warm to make a coat.
As the summer sun rose, she watched the sika deer approach, so close that she could see its clear, bright eyes and its pair of antlers that resembled tree branches.
So plump and juicy, it looks delicious!
It seems she hasn't eaten roasted venison yet?
The sika deer wasn't afraid of the beastmen. It hopped to a spot two or three meters in front of them and stopped, blinking its large, clear eyes. Suddenly, it spoke.
"Xia Dawu! Team Leader Maoning sent me to ask you, should we eat here or go to the White Tiger Tribe for dinner?"
Um?!!
"Huh? It's an orc?" Sheng Xia blurted out instinctively, then quickly realized her mistake and gave an awkward smile.
That was close! I almost mistook it for a wild animal...
Wait, she doesn't think she's seen any sika deer in the group. That's strange, where did the male come from?
Seeing the confusion in her eyes, Wolf King said calmly, "Xia, we don't have a deer in our team. That's his special ability—imitation."
He could mimic any animal he had ever seen, but there was a time limit; he could only maintain the mimicry for a very short time. Xiaxia looked ahead.
Upon hearing this, Sheng Xia looked ahead and saw that the haphazardly jumping deer had transformed into a giant black bear.
"Really?! There are such superpowers?!"
That's amazing.
Fox Snow, standing nearby, narrowed her long, narrow eyes and glanced thoughtfully at the disappearing figure of the sika deer, secretly memorizing the beast's form, thinking of looking for it during her next hunt.
Xiaxia seems to want to eat...
Of course, we'll grant her wish!
Shengxia, unaware of Huxue's thoughts, gazed in the direction where the beautiful sika deer had disappeared, her almond-shaped eyes curving into a soft smile as she spoke.
"Let's keep going and eat at the White Tiger Tribe."
We're almost there. It's safer to eat in the tribe. We can just be a little vigilant, unlike in the wild where we have to take turns on guard duty.
Besides, there's no rush for dinner.
"Okay, I'll go tell them right away!" The sika deer nodded solemnly, looked at Sheng Xia with eyes full of admiration, and then nimbly turned around and ran off at full speed.
Soon, the main force set off again.
In just five minutes, we arrived at the entrance of the White Tiger Tribe.
There stood a smiling, amiable male, followed by four large males who looked over warily.
The large-headed male had a smile on his face, a robust build, and handsome features. His short white hair made him look extremely capable.
Shengxia leaned against Jiaosu's chest, looking curiously at his snow-white short hair. The male keenly sensed her gaze and turned his eyes towards her.
The two beasts' eyes met.
His sharp gaze made Sheng Xia's hair stand on end. He realized she was female, and instantly lowered his guard, a kind smile playing on his lips.
He said in a light tone, "This is the White Tiger Tribe. I am Chief Bai Yuan. Little female, come in quickly. It's cold outside. Come in and talk."
Sheng Xia smiled faintly without saying a word.
Bai Yuan smiled, but his smile faded slightly when he looked at Mao Ning. "Which tribe are you from? What brings you here?"
During the heavy snow season, so many males came to the door, accompanied by females. It's hard not to make the animals suspicious.
Could it be that they can't survive and have to forcibly sell females?
Forcing it is impossible; he sets the price.
Their White Tiger tribe has six fourth-tier warriors and one fifth-tier warrior, who can easily handle any situation.
No matter how powerful the beasts coming from the other side are, they can't all be fifth-level ability users, right?
Needless to say, it's definitely impossible.
Thinking of this, Bai Yuan relaxed a bit, raised an eyebrow, gave Mao Ning a friendly smile, and began to try and get information out of him in a familiar way.
"By the way, are you here to sell females? Ten animal hides, five cows, the females stay, take the goods and leave."
This price is reasonable for the snow season, even better than what other tribes offer. He only paid so much because he felt sorry for the female, who was sold during the peak of the snow season...
“We don’t sell females, we’re here to sell things.” Aoki immediately shook his head and stood next to Shengxia, protecting her.
The other companions also transformed into human form at the same time, standing in front of Shengxia and protecting her completely.
Looking at the row of beautiful backs of heads in front of her, Sheng Xia was speechless. She turned her head to look around and found that no matter what angle she tried, she couldn't get a piece of the melon.
Feeling a little bored, she turned around and snuggled into Jiao Su's arms.
She thought to herself, "They have so many partners, and they're all so well-protected, she never even gets a chance to gossip..."
On the other side, upon hearing that they weren't selling females, Bai Yuan glanced at the little female with a hint of regret.
She was completely blocked by several tall males...
Bai Yuan: ...It's really not that bad, he wouldn't just steal it.
Being a chief, he quickly realized what was going on and asked curiously, "Are you just here to sell things? What things?"
Surely they wouldn't come all this way just to sell food, would they?
Bai Yuan was amused by his own thought, but then felt that laughing was disrespectful to the beastmen opposite him, so he forced himself to suppress his laughter.
In the end, she couldn't help but chuckle softly.
"Dad, that orc is so strange. His mouth keeps going up and down. Is he sick?" The little golden lion looked up at Aoki with curiosity.
