Chapter 333 Friends and Relatives of the Fox Tribe
At dawn, the morning mist slowly flowed over the walls of the Fox Tribe, as if covering the ancient city with a layer of light gauze.
The tall buildings in the tribe are arranged in an orderly manner. The glazed tiles are caressed by the rising sun, shining with dreamy colorful light, which is magnificent.
Qian Jingyao stood outside the tribe, looked up at the familiar yet unfamiliar scene in front of him, and his heartbeat suddenly quickened.
Behind him, Long Xiaoyu, Qi'an, Luo Cihe and Lang Ce stood quietly. They exuded completely different auras, yet they were inexplicably harmonious.
Qian Jingyao's fox tail tightened unconsciously, and spiritual power flowed at the tip of the tail like a lively flame, revealing his inner tension and anxiety.
Xia Yueke was keenly aware of his emotions. She gently reached out and held Qian Jingyao's slightly trembling hand, saying softly, "It's okay, I'm here."
Her voice was gentle, like the warm spring sun, instantly dispelling the haze in Qian Jingyao's heart.
At the entrance of the tribe, the guarding orc was dozing off listlessly. Suddenly, he looked up inadvertently and caught a glimpse of Qian Jingyao's figure. His eyes widened instantly and his face was full of disbelief.
The spear in his hand fell with a clang, which was particularly harsh in the quiet morning: "Young, Young Chief?!"
This cry was like a huge rock dropped into a calm lake, instantly stirring up a thousand waves. Countless fox orcs poked their heads out from the city walls and streets, and the previously peaceful tribe suddenly became lively.
"It's really the young patriarch! He's back!"
"Oh my God, after all these years, he's finally back!"
"Look, the female next to him is so beautiful!"
"Those few behind..."
A sharp-eyed fox orc noticed the unique dragon breath on Long Xiaoyu and instantly gasped, "It's the dragon tribe!"
The crowd erupted in a commotion, their voices intertwined like a bustling market. Qian Jingyao's fox ears twitched slightly, taking in every whisper.
"I heard that the young patriarch was..."
"Shh! Stop talking! Go tell the clan leader that the young clan leader is back!"
After saying that, someone slipped away in a flash.
After a while, someone shouted, "Get out of the way! The patriarch is coming!"
The voices of the crowd suddenly stopped, and the crowd automatically made way.
An old fox walked steadily towards him, his nine fluffy fox tails swaying gently with his steps, and every step carried the innate majesty of a superior.
The years have left deep marks on his face, but his eyes are still as sharp as an eagle, and he is awe-inspiring without even being angry.
"Father beast..." Qian Jingyao's voice was slightly hoarse. After not seeing each other for a year, the longing and guilt in his heart surged like a tide.
The old patriarch's gaze fell on Qian Jingyao, a flash of shock flashed across his eyes, followed by an unconcealable joy, and finally turned into a long sigh:
"You still remember to come back?"
Xia Yueke could feel Qian Jingyao's hand trembling slightly. She was about to speak to comfort him, but was interrupted by the old patriarch. The old patriarch's eyes fell on her, with a bit of scrutiny: "Is this the fox cub?"
"Yes, she is my partner." Qian Jingyao straightened his back and spoke in a firm voice, then stepped aside, "And... these are all her partners."
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience exploded.
"What?!"
"Young Clan Leader..."
"That female actually has so many partners?!"
The old patriarch's gaze swept over everyone, finally settling on Long Xiaoyu. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Dragon Clan?"
Long Xiaoyu nodded slightly, his expression calm: "That's right."
"Who is this..." The old patriarch looked at Qi'an, his eyes full of inquiry.
"Qian, the wise man of Beast City." Qi'an spoke concisely and his voice was cold.
"This..." The old patriarch's gaze fell on Luo Cihe, his pupils suddenly shrank, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face, "Are you a wizard from Beast City?"
Luo Cihe lazily flicked his tail, a faint smile on his lips: "Old Patriarch has good eyesight."
"As for this..." The old patriarch looked at Lang Ce, frowning slightly, "Gray-haired Wolf Clan?"
Lang Ce's tail instantly stood up, and he was about to refute, but was interrupted in time by Xia Yuke.
"He is my mate," Xia Yueke's voice was clear and pleasant, with unquestionable determination, "and also the leader of the stray beasts."
"Stray beast?!" The surrounding fox orcs gasped, their faces filled with shock and confusion.
The old patriarch's eyes swept over everyone for a long time, then he sighed and said, "Forget it, come in first."
When he turned around, his fox tail gently brushed Qian Jingyao's wrist, and his voice softened, "I missed you so much."
Qian Jingyao's eyes instantly turned red. He took a deep breath, and together with his companions, followed the old patriarch's footsteps and slowly walked into the tribe.
Arriving at the clan leader's house, the air was thick with the scent of sandalwood. The old clan leader sat at the main seat, his nine fox tails unfurling behind him. He looked at Qian Jingyao with a gentle gaze: "How was your life out there? Did you suffer?"
Qian Jingyao smiled brightly, "Don't worry, father beast, I'm doing fine out there. It's just that I was too impulsive when I left without saying goodbye before."
The clan leader nodded, very relieved, "I'm glad you're back. I thought you were going to hide forever!"
Qian Jingyao hesitated to speak, Xia Yueke immediately smiled and said:
"Don't worry, Chief. We will definitely come back. After all, our people are still here! We will come to see you too."
The tribe leader snorted coldly, turned around and mentioned Wu Ya, "By the way, your mother and father beasts have also gone to the Beast City. Are they doing well there? I told them that if they encounter any trouble, they should go find the tribe members living there. I don't know if they listened..."
Xia Yueke's expression softened. "They're great. We've already met each other. And my three little brothers have even transformed. They're all very cute!"
The patriarch nodded with satisfaction.
"Father beast." Qian Jingyao's fox tail twitched nervously, "There's something else I need to tell you."
The old patriarch frowned slightly: "What's the matter?"
"We've brought some stray beasts..." Qian Jingyao's voice trailed off. "We'd like to ask for your permission to station them near the tribe."
The old patriarch's fox tail instantly straightened: "Stray beast?!" He stood up suddenly, "Do you know..."
"Father beast!" Qian Jingyao also stood up, "They are not what you think!" He explained anxiously, "They are not evil, they have reformed..."
"Reform yourself?" the old patriarch sneered.
He pointed at Long Xiaoyu and the others behind Qian Jingyao, "Look at who you brought back! Dragons, wizards, and..." His eyes fell on Lang Ce, "The Gray Wolf Tribe!"
Lang Ce curled his lips. What's wrong with the gray-haired wolf clan? Are you the only one with white hair who is more noble?
