What?!
In disbelief, Shengxia picked at her ear, then turned to look at the blue kitten peeking out from behind a tree in the distance, and shuddered.
She shook her head and refused: "No...no, I treat the cat card like a cub, I have no other intentions." She wasn't a beast.
Sheng Xia bit her lower lip lightly, thinking with a hint of helplessness that even now, she still often feels out of place because she's not twisted enough...
"Oh, well... alright then." Cat Card's father turned around dejectedly and walked forward with heavy steps.
He didn't take her words about the cubs seriously. It was normal for the divine messenger not to want the cat card; not just anyone could be her companion...
He'll think of another way to get more food.
Seeing the tall male inexplicably bent over, Shengxia suddenly realized that Langmo hadn't yet relayed the message.
A smile played on her lips as she quickly called out to his retreating figure.
"Cat Card's father, don't worry, go back and wait for our notification. Your destination has been arranged, and everyone will arrive at the new tribe safely."
"Really? Thank you, Divine Messenger!!!" Cat Card's father jumped for joy and went home.
They had no doubt what she said.
That was a divine messenger; the words of a divine messenger are the words of the Beast God!
They're saved!
Safety?
The surrounding orcs caught the two words precisely and immediately perked up with excitement.
"Did the messenger just say that we will all be safe?"
Faced with such a sudden and unexpected surprise, they stared wide-eyed in disbelief, exchanging bewildered glances.
"Yes, that's right, the divine messenger said so!"
The gloom in everyone's hearts dissipated, their eyes lit up with joy, and their hearts were filled with a sense of liberation.
Wolf quickly spread the word, and everyone happily began preparations. Unlike their previous confusion, they were now filled with boundless anticipation for the future.
After making the decision, everyone began to clean up in an orderly manner. Without fresh leaves, they all knew that the milk production from the cows and sheep wouldn't last long.
When the wolf proposed the migration, no beast objected.
The small tribe of over three hundred orcs packed up a huge pile of things, which the males divided and carried on their backs.
The fully wrapped female was also on his back.
During the snowy season, females go out less, and their animal skin clothing is somewhat drafty.
Their partners would pluck the softest hair from their own bodies to block out drafts in the cuffs and collars of the females' clothes.
As the last rays of sunlight faded, night fell.
Everyone gathered in the tribal square with mixed feelings. The females sat in their partners' arms, and the cubs clung to their fathers' legs.
They all looked at the bonfire on the altar without prior arrangement.
The shaman looked solemnly at the audience below and said in a low, drawn-out voice, "Before we depart, let us offer one last sacrifice to the beast god of the Wolf Den tribe."
"From today onwards, there will be no more Wolf Den Tribe, only Yafatu!" Wolf's End said firmly.
At night, the thin crescent moon hanging in the sky is not very bright. In the height of summer, the world appears in normal colors one moment and then turns into the grayish-white of night vision the next.
The witch doctor and the wolf's horn lit their campfires simultaneously, the flames shooting into the sky. All the orcs surrounded the altar, their expressions solemn.
Everyone took out their most precious possessions and put them into the campfire. These included food, clothes, and beautiful ornaments such as seashells and feathers, which were thrown into the fire without hesitation as offerings.
Flames shot into the sky.
They then expressed sincere gratitude to the Beast God, followed by devout prayers for a smooth transition to the new tribe.
As Shengxia watched them throw the offerings into the fire and then bow deeply towards the central bonfire, she was deeply moved.
Sometimes, spiritual things are more important than physical things.
As the campfire steamed, the totem pattern in my mind lit up, and I felt a surge of energy in the summer heat. I subconsciously straightened my back and carefully felt the sensation.
She felt a subtle connection between the totem patterns and the campfire; she could almost sense everyone's reluctance to part and their anticipation for a better future.
Her eyelashes fluttered slightly as she waved towards the campfire.
I silently said goodbye.
After the worship ceremony ended and the bonfire went out, the totem patterns in Shengxia's mind receded like a tide.
The solemn atmosphere vanished in an instant.
"All beasts, prepare to depart!" Wolf's voice boomed.
"Great!!" everyone responded enthusiastically.
All the males transformed into their beast forms, looking spirited and marching in a grand procession towards the height of summer.
Looking up in the height of summer, a group of orcs, facing an unknown tribe and an uncertain future, had eyes full of excitement and anticipation.
Occasionally, a few males would show a hint of unease in their eyes, but there was no anxiety or worry.
He is in excellent mental condition.
Sheng Xia's almond-shaped eyes curved into a smile as she turned to look at Jiao Su beside her, her voice sweet and soft as she spoke.
"Thank you so much, Susu, for taking them back to Yafatu~"
"It's not hard work." Jiao Su's golden eyes curved slightly.
He turned to look at the group of orcs, his golden-glass eyes calm and unwavering, his noble and elegant face appearing exceptionally sacred at this moment.
He lightly tapped his fingertip, and a blue, transparent bubble gradually grew larger, extending towards the beastmen...
A snow-white wolf cub looked over curiously. Sheng Xia lowered her eyes and met the little wolf cub's innocent eyes, and smiled slightly.
The little wolf cub scurried back behind its father's legs.
So cute!
Sheng Xia's eyes lit up, and her almond-shaped eyes curved into crescents.
Soon, the transparent bubble enveloped all the orcs. Jiao Su placed a kiss on Sheng Xia's lips and said in a clear and elegant voice,
"Xia, okay, shall we go now?"
"Okay, let's go." Sheng Xia smiled gently.
In the blink of an eye, we were in a different place.
Looking at the majestic city wall before them, everyone exclaimed in amazement: "The walls here look really sturdy!"
“Yes, I can’t jump over it either,” a huge gray wolf exclaimed after attempting to jump.
While everyone was still in surprise, the patrolling orcs on the city wall quickly notified the chieftain, and Lion Mountain, beaming with joy, led a squadron of majestic golden eagles toward the tribe's gate.
As they walked, Xiaxia said to her bodyguard, "See, it's all thanks to Xiaxia. It's because of her that we discovered how wonderful our tribe is."
After saying that, he turned around and solemnly rebuked, "Remember, protect Xiaxia. Between me and Xiaxia, Xiaxia will be the priority!"
"Okay!" everyone responded in unison.
In the height of summer, she sneezed and saw the door open. A familiar figure ran over, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of warmth and familiarity.
"Xiaxia's back! Come in, come in!"
"Alright, Chief, thank you for your hard work. Please make sure they are settled in properly." Sheng Xia didn't stand on ceremony, her eyes crinkling with a smile as she walked inside with her partner.
"It's not hard at all, Xiaxia, you've worked hard!"
Lion Mountain first welcomed Sheng Xia inside, then methodically arranged for the orcs from the Wolf Den tribe, speaking with a kind smile.
"It's late tonight, everyone please make do for the night. Come on, females and your mates/children, this way. Single males and Maoning, please go ahead."
Everyone followed out of curiosity.
