Chapter 367 - 368: Punishment
Ma Li struggled to cling to Ma Qing’s legs, his messy hair giving him the appearance of a madman!
"Chief! Please hear me out! I was forced into this. Young Master Bai Zheng said he was unwilling to allow so many tribe members into Beast City. I had no choice but to abandon them. I wanted, I was thinking, once I joined Beast City, I would find a way to get them in. I swear, I’m not lying to you!"
Ma Qing aimed a savage kick towards Ma Li’s shoulder blade, sending him flying far away.
Looking at him with disappointment etched into his face, he said, "A Li, you have let me down! The old chief was right, I should never have let you take the position of priest. I’ve never told you anything about the Death Forest, so how did you know?"
"I, I overheard your conversation with the old chief by accident... I wasn’t sure whether you were here, I was simply guessing ... Brother, please, I beg you to save me! I’m not ready to serve the Beast God, I beg you, brother!"
Ma Qing was already an elderly beastman. At this moment, the provocation by Ma Li seemed to age him by another ten years. He emanated an aura that was uniquely of an older person’s, one filled with vicissitudes.
Ma Qing knelt before Gaiyin and knocked his head on the ground, "Chief, no matter what, this incident happened because of me. I am willing to accept any punishment, but please don’t vent your anger on the other members of the Weasel Clan, or exile them from our paradise."
As he spoke these words, Ma Qing was nervous.
