Chapter 518 - 517, Moumou Recognizing the Trends - Part 1
The three orcs, having never seen such a tribe before, were stunned on the spot.
Meng Tai turned his head to look at the smiling Ya Li: "Is this your tribe?"
Ya Li rolled his eyes in response, expecting a more substantial question: "If it’s not our tribe, would it be yours?"
Ji Nuan, having bid farewell to the tribes, also joined in: "Come on, I’ll take you to my place. You can stay there for the night."
With that, she led the three orcs towards her home, together with Xiu Yan and Ya Li.
The gate of the yard was not closed, and the orcs walked right in. Before Ji Nuan even had a chance to look at the changes in her courtyard, a big head nudged her.
Meng Tai and his orcs, with apprehensive faces, unsheathed sharp claws ready to attack the green bull beast which was "assaulting" Ji Nuan, but were held back by Xiu Yan and Ya Li.
Xiu Yan tilted his clear-cut chin, indicating them to look at the bull beast.
The next scene that unfolded was so surprising to the orcs that they nearly dropped their jaws. The bull beast, which would normally charge at the sight of an orc, was now rubbing its face against Shaman Ji Nuan’s arm with a look of submission, a hint of grievance flashing in its watery eyes.
Meng Tai rubbed his eyes in disbelief. Had he been blinded by the desert wind today?
Ji Nuan patted Moumou’s head: "Oh, you little rascal. With no beasts around, you’ve been trotting around the yard, haven’t you? Grew some balls, did ya!"
Moumou mooed innocently while Ji Nuan sighed in resignation, turning towards Xiu Yan: "Brother Xiu Yan, why don’t you take them inside first? I’ll take Moumou back and give him a little lesson."
Just as Xiu Yan was about to respond, Meng Tai waved his hand and said, "Don’t worry about us. If Shaman Ji Nuan doesn’t mind, why not take us along? We’d love to see more of your magical tribe."
Ji Nuan could only smile and nod: "Alright, follow me then."
But as she led Moumou away, Xiu Yan stepped forward and placed himself between Ji Nuan and Moumou. The previously cheeky Moumou instantly straightened out, marching along soberly with every step.
Ji Nuan poked Xiu Yan’s side, laughing: "Stop scaring him, you might burst his ’courage’ bubble."
With a rare hint of humor, Xiu Yan responded in a frosty tone: "Him? You really underestimate your Moumou. He’s not scared at all."
Moumou’s watery eyes darted around sneakily in their blind spot, reflecting a spark of craftiness.
The cow wasn’t stupid. This orc was evil and always wanted to eat him. He had no reason to be cocky.
Turning the corner, a spacious backyard revealed itself to the three orcs. Ji Nuan and Xiu Yan returned Moumou to his little home. Upon seeing him return, his wife wagged her tail and gave him a couple of bops. Moumou quickly eased his face forward in appeasement.
Meanwhile, the unfazed calf stood off to the side, nonchalantly watching his thick-skinned father before sighing and returning to his grazing.
On the other hand, the three orcs were dazzled by the sight of the green bull beasts, Gagabeasts, and Giggle Beasts in the pen. These groups were remarkably well-behaved, showing no signs of escape: "Beast God, this is truly magical."
