Chapter 834 - 833: A Picture Conveys Three Thousand Miles
The evolution of the Eagle Orcs was rapid; by the stroke of midnight, they had already returned to the Tribe.
Ying Yan let out an eagle’s shriek and flapped his wings slowly as he descended onto the city wall.
The Black Snake gently placed the two females, who had fainted, onto the ground, their bodies covered in black mud and looking quite wretched.
"I think it’d be best to have the Shaman take a look at them, after all, one of them is just a little cub," the Snake Beast murmured as it proposed the suggestion.
Ying Yan transformed into his Orc form and glanced at him, "You’re completely different from Ya Li; if Ya Li saw these two females thrown into black mud, he’d probably just grab a fruit and snack on it while enjoying the scene."
"Who’s talking behind my back, hmm?" A lazy voice drifted from the small cabin atop the city wall. A tall Orc emerged from the small house, stretching deeply, his wicked eyes lazily surveying the two Orcs on the city wall.
"Tsk tsk, Ying Yan, you’re just like Fu Yi, always seizing the chance to bad-mouth me."
Ying Yan wordlessly rolled his eyes, "Who’s bad-mouthing you? Would you go rescue a couple of unfamiliar females if they were in danger?"
A hint of sleepiness on Ya Li vanished instantly at Ying Yan’s question, and he spoke with a strong desire to survive, "How could that be possible? I’d only stand by and watch the commotion."
Ying Yan spread his hands, "So, was I wrong?"
Ya Li fell silent...
He pointed to the Orc beside him, "Your older brother is too kind-hearted; seeing two unfamiliar females thrown into the black mud, he rescued them and even brought them to the Tribe."
At these words, Ya Li glanced at the two females lying unconscious on the ground, large and small, then looked at his noble brother, "Older brother, there’s nothing I can do about this; you’ll have to talk to Xiu Yan."
Although Xiu Yan was just a captain of a Hunting Team in the Tribe, one couldn’t ignore his formidable strength.
In this Beast World where strength was revered, even as the Guard Captain, he had to submit to that brute.
Yes, that was the harsh reality.
Ya Li’s older brother let out a wry smile and pointed towards the two females behind him, "I’m afraid we need to go now; I rescued these females from the black mud, and I don’t even know if they’re still alive."
The thought of the consequences of waking Shaman Ji Nuan, and facing the fearsome beast, Xiu Yan, made Ya Li’s head throb in pain.
Gritting his teeth, he turned and headed down the city wall, "Come on, I’ll go with you."
A wide smile instantly bloomed on the face of the Orc as he hoisted the two females onto his shoulders and followed behind Ya Li.
Maybe it was their lucky day because Ji Nuan, having drunk too much purple fruit porridge, had unusually woken up to use the restroom.
Not even settled back in bed yet, she heard shouts from outside.
Even though they were faint, they were quite clear on such a quiet night.
The chubby cub that was fast asleep on the heated brick bed also opened his eyes; after a moment of bewilderment, he quickly regained clarity.
Shuffling his plump little paws, he moved to the edge of the bed, transformed into his tall Orc form, and with his deep eyes looked at the wide-eyed little female staring at him, "Go back to sleep, they’re here for me."
He had caught the scent of the Snake Beast.
Ji Nuan kicked off her beast skin shoes and scrambled back into the warm comforter.
Only a fuzzy head remained outside the blanket; curious, she wondered what pressing matter could there be this late at night?
