Chapter 298: Land Grabbing
Xia Yueke looked at the two cubs running and playing happily on the grass, their bodies agile, healthy and lively, and felt both relieved and a little anxious.
She knew very well that it was time to find Qian Jingyao as soon as possible, and she couldn't let the real father miss the growth of his cubs.
Every time she saw Lang Ce and the cubs getting along so harmoniously, she couldn't help but secretly worry about Qian Jingyao.
Especially recently, An An has become more and more dependent on Lang Ce, and their intimate appearance makes Xia Yueke feel mixed emotions.
She could only sigh silently from a distance, filled with worry. Lang Ce noticed her mood and became even more proud. With a sly smile on his face, he approached Xia Yueke and deliberately asked:
"Little fox, why are you sighing? Shouldn't you be happy to see me and the cub getting along so well?"
Xia Yueke was about to respond when suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps came from outside.
Lang Ce's subordinate, the mantis beast that often appeared, hurried in, followed by a pangolin beastman. Both of them looked panicked and panting.
"Boss, this is bad!" The Mantis Beast's voice trembled with fear. "There's a tribe of orcs out there, claiming to be rid of the beasts, and they're heading our way. Judging by their route, they're clearly targeting our tribe. They've already defeated several small stray beast tribes nearby! They kill any stray beasts they see, and their methods are extremely cruel. What should we do?"
Lang Ce's originally relaxed smile disappeared in an instant, and his expression became stern. He stared at the mantis beast with a sharp gaze and asked anxiously:
"Are there any foxes?"
The pangolin beastman didn't react for a moment, was stunned for a moment, let out a puzzled "ah", and then quickly shook his head vigorously:
"There are no fox orcs, they are all from the wolf tribe, and the leader is a silver wolf!"
Lang Ce's expression froze instantly, his face changed slightly, and he repeated: "Are you sure it's Silver Wolf?"
The pangolin orc was frightened by Lang Ce's eyes and trembled all over. He nodded hurriedly, his voice trembling:
"Of course, Boss! How could I dare to lie to you? As soon as the brothers nearby got the news, they immediately asked me to report it!"
When Xia Yuke heard that some passionate orcs were coming to attack Langce, she felt a secret joy in her heart at first. But before this joy faded, she suddenly realized that she was now a member of this tribe, and she and her cubs were about to face a catastrophe.
Thinking of this, her face turned pale in an instant, and she was filled with tension and worry.
"Lang Ce, can you handle it? How about I take my cub and leave first to avoid the limelight?"
Xia Yueke was extremely anxious, and her eyes were full of worry when she looked at Lang Ce.
Lang Ce sneered softly, seeing through her thoughts, a sharp look flashed in his eyes:
"Little fox, don't think I don't know what you are thinking. Want to leave? It's not that easy!" He paused, his tone firm, with unquestionable confidence.
"Don't worry, I won't let those orcs succeed!"
After saying that, Lang Ce turned to look at the mantis beast, his eyes revealing a fierce and resolute look:
"Now, gather all the stray beasts and prepare for battle! It's time to let them know our true strength! If we do a good job on these little bastards this time, maybe we can even seek revenge on the scorpion beastmen in advance!"
As soon as Lang Ce gave the order, it seemed as if an invisible force was calling.
In an instant, hundreds of stray animals rushed out from nowhere, rushing in like a tide, and instantly surrounded the large open space in front of the wooden house.
Lang Ce stood tall, his posture erect and majestic. He glanced at the stray beasts below and said loudly:
"You must have heard about this, right? There are arrogant orcs who want to cull all of us stray beasts and have even taken over several of their dens. They're almost here! We can't back down! Show me your courage! We've finally settled down here and have never harmed their tribe. What right do they have to cull us just like that?"
His voice was passionate and powerful, echoing in the open space. "Don't you agree?"
“Never back down!”
"Defend our home!"
The stray animals below were inspired by Lang Ce's words. They raised their arms and shouted loudly, their voices were deafening and their momentum was like a rainbow.
They set off immediately, heading towards a place far away from their territory, which was just below this hill.
The remaining stray beasts on guard can just see the entire battlefield, and if the situation is not right, they can immediately move away or provide support.
Xia Yueke asked Aqi to take care of the two cubs, look down, and wait for the enemy they mentioned to appear.
Time passed little by little, and finally they appeared.
Leading the group was a gigantic silver wolf. He was full of righteousness and looked like a son of justice. However, when the silver wolf saw the opponent in front of him clearly, he revealed a look of disdain, contempt, and even a little surprise.
Lang Ce also turned into a huge gray wolf.
The tail is held high and a little ruffled.
"It's you? Lang Ce, you actually came here to be a stray beast?"
The white wolf opposite raised his head slightly, opened his thin lips, and was the first to speak back. However, due to the distance, Xia Yue could only see his mouth moving, but could not hear the words clearly. This made her feel an inexplicable sense of fantasy.
Standing high up, Xia Yueke had a unique vantage point. Her gaze flickered back and forth between the two wolves, their similarities becoming increasingly apparent. Suddenly, a bizarre thought flashed through her mind: If she dyed the white wolf's fur black, perhaps it would resemble Lang Ce's beast form! The thought, even to her own mind, was absurd.
Xia Yueke stared intently at Bailang, capturing every subtle expression on his face. Then she glanced at Langce, trying to discern some clue from his reaction. Judging from Bailang's expression, the two men must have known each other, and their relationship was far more profound than she'd imagined. This discovery, like a fire, ignited Xia Yueke's curiosity. Her eyes widened, and she stared down intently, fearing to miss a single detail, eagerly anticipating what would unfold.
"When did you have so much free time? Why are you here to wipe out stray beasts? These stray beasts are everywhere in the mountains. Do you think you can kill them all with just your tribe?" Lang Ce shouted in a hoarse voice, and his sarcastic words were like a sharp blade, piercing the white wolf.
The white wolf sneered, that smile full of pride and disdain, "Heh, but no matter what I do, the father and mother beasts support me. They will give me everything!"
As soon as these words came out, Lang Ce's eyes flashed with an uncontrollable anger, like a tinderbox. He hated Bai Lang using these things to irritate him the most. Every word was like salt, sprinkled on the wound he most hated to touch.
