Chapter 405 - 404, She Wu_1
The Orc listlessly lifted his head to glance at him, but remained sitting there with his head drooped, motionless. Ya Gu, holding his young female cub and rocking her, looked toward Ya Li with an unmistakably wicked gleam in his eyes.
Ya Li glared at him, saying, "Don’t revel in this. You need to help me find a solution too, not just stand by and enjoy the spectacle."
Ya Gu rolled his eyes. "We were duped by you countless times. Now that my issue is done, She Wu is back. You should inform the Clan Leader and Ji Nuan, don’t just keep hiding him in your house."
The young man sitting on the heated platform looked pitifully at Ya Li: "Big brother~"
She Wu felt very wronged. Being a spy in two opposing tribes, which then suddenly announced a merger, pushed him into a truly unbearable situation.
He mournfully glared at Ya Li, the instigator of all his misfortune.
Ya Li felt a chill. He was in a tight spot as well. How could he explain that both Ya Gu and himself were innocent, that it was him who initially asked Ya Gu to seduce Manli, the female orc, and that he was behind She Wu’s decision to spy on the Watson Tribe?
He was afraid Chief Ge Xing and Ji Nuan would want his head on a pike.
Scratching his head, he said, "How about we go altogether? You vanished without uttering a word, having finally returned, you should tell everyone about what happened during your absence. I can’t be the one to speak for you."
She Wu pursed his lips, "In fact, I should’ve bumped into you guys earlier. After I left, I encountered the Barbarian Tribe and stayed with them. Because I am a Black Rock Python Orc and have superior fighting power, they always took me on their hunting expeditions so I never ran into you guys."
Ya Li widened his eyes, "You were with the Orcs from the Barbarian Tribe all this time? So where are they now?"
She Wu bitterly smiled, "After being driven out by the Dashi Tribe, they found a small territory far away to settle in. The Clan Leader and an Orc named Man Sen feared that I would usurp their positions in the tribe, so they drove me away on the grounds that I was not originally from their tribe."
Then, after glancing at Ya Gu and Ya Li, he added, "I thought that since I was always hunting while I was with them anyway, I might as well leave and search for you guys. So I left without offering any resistance."
Ya Li and Ya Gu rolled their eyes in unison, lamenting how they could have such a foolishly simpleminded brother.
Ya Li stood up, took a couple of deep breaths, and said, "Rest well today. Tomorrow, we will go see Chief Ge Xing and Ji Nuan together and explain everything to them. The Watson Tribe accepted us before, and as long as we explain everything honestly and serve the tribe wholeheartedly in the future, they should forgive us."
Ya Gu and the little carrot head in his arms blinked in unison, "Do I have to go too?"
Ya Li looked at him with a smirk, "Aren’t you She Wu’s big brother? Of course, you’re coming."
Ya Gu lifted the cub that was kicking her little legs in his arms, and grinned, "Maybe I shouldn’t go. Your two can explain everything perfectly well. If I leave, the cub will have no one to care for her, how pitiful."
Ya Li grinned sarcastically, "I recall you always leave the cub with Ama next door whenever you go hunting. I think it won’t hurt to inconvenience her one more time?"
