Chapter 931 - 930: Contact with Land BeastmOrcen
Previously, Gui Zhuangzhuang would have immediately sought to please his partner upon seeing them in such a state.
But this time, he was uncharacteristically serious, "I don’t want to punish Baobao, but you know how dangerous it is for Baobao to come into contact with Land BeastmOrcen.
What if those Land BeastmOrcen hurt him? Baobao is so young and doesn’t have any survival skills.
Besides, our Aquatic Clan’s current situation is so dire. The Sea Serpent Clan is colluding with Land BeastmOrcen—what if these BeastmOrcen are from the group that’s in league with the Sea Serpent Clan?
The poison in the sea water outside hasn’t been resolved yet. Fortunately, Baobao didn’t eat food outside today; otherwise, we might never see Baobao again."
But as soon as Gui Zhuangzhuang finished speaking, Gui Baobao whispered something softly.
The female had not been paying attention to the cub’s deep mountains just before, but upon looking down, she noticed the cub’s guilty demeanor in her arms.
She felt a sudden jolt in her heart and hurriedly picked up the little one, holding them up to her face with utter seriousness, "Baobao, tell Amu whether you ate food outside today."
Tiny tears immediately welled up in the little one’s bean-like eyes, "Amu, Father, today when I went to play on the beach, I ran into the Shaman and others picking up Shell Beasts and Sea Beasts in our territory, so I called out to them."
As soon as the cub finished speaking, both Gui Zhuangzhuang and his partner’s expressions drastically changed.
The female carefully took Gui Baobao out of her embrace, her eyes brimming with tears in her haste, "You little rascal, the sea water outside is full of toxins. How could you eat food from the beach?"
After speaking, she looked towards the equally anxious Gui Zhuangzhuang, placing the little cub in his arms, "Zhuangzhuang, we must take the cub to Lord Priest quickly. I’m so afraid something will happen to the cub."
With that, she broke into anxious tears.
Gui Zhuangzhuang was also extremely distraught at the time. He picked up the little one and said to his partner, "You stay in the cave to look after Beibei. If anything happens, I’ll have an Orc come tell you."
Tears still in her eyes, the female nodded. She and Gui Zhuangzhuang had two cubs, both hatched from the same clutch of eggs—one named Gui Baobao and the other Gui Beibei.
Both cubs were mischievous little BeastmOrcen. Gui Beibei had been poisoned before, eating a Sea Beast contaminated by the toxic sea water, and was now lying in the cave, barely clinging to life.
Gui Baobao had been punished by Gui Zhuangzhuang for wrongdoing and, as a result, didn’t go out with Gui Beibei that day and was unharmed.
After such a long time, Gui Beibei, despite having consumed a lot of herbal potions, was still unconscious, with even his breathing becoming weaker and weaker.
Gui Zhuangzhuang and his partner had even prepared themselves for the loss of their beloved cub.
But now, Baobao had snuck out while they were busy and eaten the Shell Beasts and Sea Beasts from the beach, causing them immense worry.
Gui Zhuangzhuang rushed with Gui Baobao to the priest’s cave.
The two Orcs guarding the outside of the cave were startled upon seeing Gui Zhuangzhuang but then bowed respectfully, "Clan Leader."
Gui Zhuangzhuang nodded with an anxious expression, "Baobao has eaten a Sea Beast contaminated by the poisoned sea water. I’ve brought him here for the priest to examine."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the two Orcs changed drastically. Not caring if they would be punished by Lord Priest, they quickly stepped aside.
