Pu Su sat at the back and watched all this. Compared with the last beast tide, everyone was not despairing, but full of fighting spirit and momentum.
Seeing that the beast tide was dispersing, many of them had already fled into the surrounding forests, and the few beasts that rushed to them were also killed by them.
Lin Qiu heard the noise outside gradually die down in the cave: "Song Mu, it seems that the voices outside are all from our tribe."
The roars of the wild beasts were gradually drowned out by the voices of the tiger orcs. Lin Qiu listened attentively and the sounds coming from outside seemed more like celebrations after victory.
Song Mu's tension instantly relaxed. "Yes, it should be fine. Judging from the sounds, Ling Yun and the others have resolved the crisis. Xiaoqiu, our defense must have worked."
Lin Qiu, like Song Mu, smiled easily. She lifted the animal skin on her body and ran over to hug Song Mu.
Song Mu lowered her head and let Lin Qiu put his arms around her neck: "I'll take you home."
"good."
Lin Qiu was very glad that she was able to use what she learned in human society to help the Tiger Tribe overcome its difficulties.
Song Mu transformed into a human form, took Lin Qiu back to the room, and added some firewood to the kang.
The Tiger Tribe won a great victory this time. The orcs who participated in the battle outside the tribe roared with excitement and pride that were difficult to express.
They successfully defended the tribe. In the beast tide disaster that almost no tribe in the Somali continent could deal with, they kept the beast tide out of the tribe without losing any tribal members!
Everyone gathered around Ling Yun and said, "This time, it's all thanks to Lin Qiu's ideas! The traps and catapults really helped us this time! I think if we had enough time to prepare and enough arrows, we wouldn't even have any injuries!"
Ling Yun was also very happy, but his neck was a little burning. Just now, when he was dueling with a wild boar, his neck was scratched by the thorns on the wild boar's body. He didn't know how serious the injury was, but he felt that it should be fine.
"Those who are seriously injured should return to the tribe first. The rest of you, come with me to clean up the beasts. Drag them back to the tribe and slowly make them into pickled meat."
The impact of the beast tide will not end so easily. Following the beast tide will be a decrease in the number of wild beasts in the forest. These carnivorous tribes will face a famine lasting several years, especially in the first year. It will be almost impossible to find large wild beasts in the forest.
They needed to store some food and then wait for the forest to slowly nourish and expand the herd.
"Got it! Everyone, clean up the place, don't let those wild beasts that just escaped come back and steal our food!"
After experiencing the chaos, everyone was still full of energy. Pu Su stared at the white male tiger that was particularly eye-catching among the crowd. He stood in the snow, and his fur was still bright.
Pu Su suddenly seemed to see an old friend standing there.
"Yan Ting..."
"What are you talking about?" Mei Yan felt as if his feathers had been plucked out, and he trembled as if a layer of skin had been shed. "Give me your clothes."
Pu Su left his clothes to Mei Yan and transformed himself into a beast.
He only had three legs left, and the one at the back was barely able to stand, so he moved very slowly.
Ling Yun was dragging the carcass of a stag when he heard Pu Su limping towards him.
"It's over. Go back and take care of the little females."
Ling Yun let go of the deer and spoke to Pu Su.
"I have something to tell you."
Pu Su's eyes were very determined. He had wanted to say this to Ling Yun last time.
"What?"
Ling Yun had always found it strange that Pu Su was hesitant.
"Your father died for A-Ti."
"I know."
In order to protect the tribe, Yan Ting was seriously injured in the last beast tide and died.
Although Ling Yun has been trying to avoid recalling his father's haggard appearance before his death, every time he talks about him, the image that appears in his mind makes him sad.
"You don't know." Pu Su looked at Ling Yun: "It was A-Ti. Before Yan Ting died, she asked him to help Wu Chuan take the throne, and she gave all the medicine in the house to me!"
"What do you mean?"
"Yan Ting is not incurable, but he must die. If he doesn't die, he can no longer be the clan leader. He must die!"
Ling Yun's blue eyes were stained with blood: "What do you mean by must die! What are you talking about?!"
Ling Yun's voice attracted the attention of other orcs.
"Yan Ting will only be considered great enough if he dies. His greatness will also ensure that Wu Chuan, whom he nominated, will secure the position of clan leader."
Ling Yun guessed it the moment Pu Su confessed, but when he heard Pu Su reveal the truth, his heart still felt like it was torn apart.
"I'm sorry I'm only telling you this now. Although Yan Ti kicked me out, as long as my beast mark is on her, I will always be her male. I shouldn't have betrayed her, but, Ling Yun, I... I know Wu Chuan seems to be planning to attack you, and Yan Ting was seriously injured trying to save me. I can't keep this secret until the day I meet the Beast God."
Saying these things was undoubtedly Pu Su's betrayal of Yan Ti.
He kept this secret for ten years out of male protection of females.
Yan Ting was willing to die, and according to Yan Ti's request, he recommended Wu Chuan to take the position, ensuring that Yan Ti could continue to be the female leader of the clan and enjoy more rights. This was also due to the male's unswerving loyalty to his female.
But Pu Su, who had been suffering for so many years, finally felt relieved.
After he said that, he limped out of Ling Yun's sight, leaving Ling Yun standing there alone.
Everyone looked at Ling Yun, not knowing what to say to comfort him.
Ren Ge said, "Ling Yun, don't be impulsive. Since the truth of the matter is like this, I think we should depose Chief Wu Chuan and elect a new one. Please don't challenge him and don't cause further conflict within the tribe, okay?"
Tan Yuan also advised him: "Ren Ge is right. Now we all know the truth of what happened back then. They forced the old clan leader to die. Wu Chuan's position as clan leader is not legitimate! Ling Yun, this matter does not require such an extreme duel."
"He's just not worthy. When danger comes, a tribe leader hides in the tribe instead of standing in front with the tribe to protect the tribe. The Tiger Tribe has never had such a rule!"
Everyone said that they would no longer support Wu Chuan as the patriarch.
Ling Yun's chest felt swollen, as if it was about to explode.
He wants to tear Wu Chuan apart with his bare hands right now!
But an idea that was even stronger than tearing Wu Chuan apart with bare hands was that Ling Yun wanted to see Lin Qiu. He wanted Lin Qiu to hug him tightly.
When everyone saw Ling Yun didn't say anything, they all looked embarrassed and shook their heads and sighed at each other.
Ling Yun ran towards home, and the moment he saw Lin Qiu, he turned into a human form and sat down on the ground in despair.
Blood trickled down his collarbone from the wound in his neck.
