The riverside gradually quieted down and the sky dimmed.
One side of the ravine was lush and green, while the other side was lit up by flames.
A man stood on the other side of the river with his hands behind his back. He looked at the other side from afar, his eyes burning with passion.
The entire river was dyed orange. The wind blew across the river, making it sparkle.
Flutter —
The eagle circled in the sky, landed behind the man, and turned into a human.
"King, I've found out."
"Yes."
The shapeshifter replied respectfully, "She's from the White Tiger Tribe. Should I bring her back?"
"Little tiger." The man murmured. After a moment of silence, he turned and walked into the darkness. His voice came through the night wind. "No need."
…
In the middle of the night, Shi Sheng woke up because of the need to pee again. She sat up and scratched her head in annoyance.
Was there something wrong with her body?
She only drank a little water at night. Why did she need to pee?
Shi Sheng couldn't hold it anymore. She jumped out of the cave and went to the forest to solve her life problem.
This time, she didn't meet the female lead, but she met Xiong Sanmei.
Shi Sheng pulled up her pants and stood up, only to see Xiong Sanmei sneakily heading towards the tribe with that lackey.
"Xiong Sanmei!" Shi Sheng shouted.
Xiong Sanmei screamed in fright, but she quickly covered her mouth and turned around.
The forest was dark, but Shi Sheng was dressed differently from the others. Xiong Sanmei recognized her at a glance. She rushed over and wanted to shout, but she was afraid that she would attract the shapeshifters of the White Tiger Tribe. She gritted her teeth and said, "Didn't you promise me that you wouldn't tell anyone?"
"I didn't promise you." Xiong Sanmei was the one talking the whole time. When did she promise?
"You!" Xiong Sanmei pointed at Shi Sheng. "Why are you so disloyal? I helped you hide from your brother!"
Shi Sheng spread her hands innocently. "Your father wanted to drag me down. If I didn't betray you, I would have been in trouble."
If it weren't for the Blind Bear, she wouldn't have betrayed Xiong Sanmei.
Xiong Sanmei's eyes widened. After a while, she thumped her chest and stamped her feet. "My father is trying to kill me!"
Xiong Sanmei muttered to herself for a while before looking up at the Shi Sheng. "No, I have to run away from home."
She didn't wait for Shi Sheng's response. She hurried back with her followers and soon disappeared into the night.
This brat …
Because Xiong Sanmei had run away, everyone knew that it was most likely related to her. As her father, Blind Bear had to take responsibility for his daughter.
In the end, the group of beastmen discussed and decided that the Black Bear Tribe and the White Tiger Tribe would each take half of the responsibility. They had to help the nearby tribes rebuild their tribes and provide them with rations.
The conflicts between the tribes were of no use at this time.
They also had rules here.
Bai An was so angry that he rushed into the Shi Sheng cave and roared at the Shi Sheng.
Shi Sheng went in one ear and out the other. Occasionally, he would mock Bai An, making her speechless.
In the end, Bai An said, "Go hunting with me tomorrow."
The White Tiger Tribe was in charge of bringing food to those beastmen, while the Black Bear Tribe was in charge of rebuilding their tribe.
The next day, Shi Sheng was woken up at dawn. All the males in the tribe wanted to go out.
Because females were relatively rare, all the beastmen in the tribe held onto them and wouldn't let them go out to hunt. But if any female wanted to go, the males wouldn't refuse.
Of course, the females who went usually stood at the back. It was similar to going to inspect the army.
"Lingxi, are you going hunting too?" A female beastman stood under her cave. "Lin Qiqi seems to be going too. She's so weak. Why is she going?"
Shi Sheng put on his coat and came out. He looked down at the female beastman. "You're talking as if you can do anything if you go."
The female beastman was speechless.
Shi Sheng jumped down in front of her. The female beastman immediately followed her. "Lingxi, what are you wearing? It looks so good. You look even better in it. "
The female beastmen in the tribe often urged the original owner to do some despicable things.
This was one of them.
"Lingxi, do you still have it? Lend it to me to wear. "The female beastman reached out to touch Shi Sheng's clothes.
"No." Shi Sheng turned to the side and avoided her hand.
"Lingxi, I'm just borrowing it to wear. It's not like I won't return it to you. Why are you so stingy?" The female beastman was a little unhappy.
Shi Sheng was speechless.
Can you return it after wearing it?
In the original owner's memories, this female beastman often took things from her. Sometimes, she would take food from the original owner. She said that she was borrowing it, but in reality, she didn't return it.
The original owner was coaxed by her words in the past. Now, she still wanted to coax her. Dream on.
She wondered if this female beastman had anything to do with the original owner that night …
Shi Sheng asked directly, "Where were you that night?"
The female beastman asked, "Which night?"
"The night I was beaten up by Bai An."
In the past, when it was time to eat, this beastman would come to the original owner's cave to talk. Then, when the food was delivered, she wouldn't be polite and used it.
But that night, she didn't seem to come …
After that, the original owner was called over by Bai An.
"I'm at home." The female beastman's expression didn't change. "Why are you asking this?"
Shi Sheng retracted his gaze. "Nothing."
Shi Sheng walked towards the large group that had gathered in front.
"Hey, Lingxi, are you going to borrow it or not?"
"No."
The female beastman said a few unpleasant words from behind. Shi Sheng couldn't be bothered with her and walked straight to the large group.
Bai An thought that she would have to call her, but who knew that she would actually come herself?
"Let's go." Bai An waved her hand.
The beastmen immediately ran down the mountain. One by one, they transformed into their beast forms and quickly fled into the forest.
The hunting ground was fixed. There was no need to lead the way. They could just gather there later.
Bai An returned to her original form and hunched Lin Qiqi, who was like a white lotus, onto her back. She turned to look at Shi Sheng. "Why aren't you leaving yet?"
Shi Sheng walked past Bai An calmly.
Lin Qiqi stared at her back and suddenly leaned over to whisper into Bai An's ear. Then, she jumped down and ran back.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she climbed into the cave where Shi Sheng lived.
At a glance, there was nothing in the cave.
Lin Qiqi searched carefully but didn't see that sword.
Strange …
Where did she hide the sword?
There was no place to hide such a long sword in this cave.
She even looked at the top of the cave, but she didn't see that sword.
Lin Qiqi was afraid that beastmen would come over and didn't dare to stay any longer. She came out carefully and ran to Bai An's side to climb onto his back.
"If you're not feeling well, you won't be going," Bai An said worriedly.
"I'm fine." Lin Qiqi shook her head. "Let's go."
Bai An ran down the mountain.
Lin Qiqi hugged his neck to prevent herself from falling. "Bai An, did you ask her about the origin of that sword?"
The wind blew Lin Qiqi's voice away.
"I did, but she didn't say."
"Lingxi has been strange recently. I have a bad feeling. I keep feeling that something is going to happen."
"Don't worry. I'm here."
"… Yes."
