Xue Ling leaned back and asked calmly, “What about Huanhuan? Is she going to the City of 10,000 Beasts with us?”
Huanhuan looked at them obediently.
Bai Di said, “I don’t trust her to stay on the rock mountain herself. Besides, the leader and the witch doctor have to appear together to participate in the trial. The witch doctor in our tribe is Huanhuan. She can’t hide.”
“What about the arrest warrant for Huanhuan in the City of 10,000 Beasts? As long as she appears in the City of 10,000 Beasts, she’ll immediately be arrested as a murderer.”
“We can only let Huanhuan disguise herself and sneak into the City of 10,000 Beasts first. Then, we’ll find a chance to find out the truth about Mather’s murder. After we get concrete evidence, we can prove Huanhuan’s innocence. At that time, she’ll be safe.”
Xue Ling said, “Good idea, but it’s risky.”
Bai Di was exasperated. “We don’t have much time. This is the fastest way.”
He stroked Huanhuan’s head. “I might have to trouble you for a while.”
Huanhuan smiled. “I don’t feel wronged.”
Since the plan had been decided, Shuang Yun asked about the time of departure.
Bai Di said, “When the competition between those tribes is over, the trial will officially begin. We won’t have more than a month.”
It would take more than half a month to travel from here to the City of 10,000 Beasts.
Shuang Yun said, “There’s indeed not much time. Let’s set off tomorrow.”
Bai Di nodded. “That’s what I thought. The sooner we leave, the better.”
…
Shuang Yun picked out 20 male beasts from the tribe and prepared to bring them to the City of 10,000 Beasts.
They were all soul beasts who had awakened their beast souls, and Feng Lan was among them.
Shuang Yun wanted to take Jiu Yuan with him, but after some hesitation, he left Jiu Yuan on the rock mountain to help take care of the people.
Shuang Yun said, “You’re my most trusted beast. With you staying on the rock mountain, I can go to the City of 10,000 Beasts in peace.”
Jiu Yuan agreed seriously. “I definitely won’t let you down.”
Shuang Yun patted his shoulder and lowered his voice. “I’ll take Feng Lan away. You can take the opportunity to get closer to Mu Xiang and try to give birth to a few more wolf cubs. This is as far as I can help you.”
Jiu Yuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Should I thank you for your consideration?”
“You don’t have to thank me. We’re all brothers. I’ll be glad if you can help take care of my six children when you’re free.”
Jiu Yuan agreed very readily. “I’ll definitely take care of your six children like they’re my own children!”
Shuang Yun nodded. “I’m relieved to hear that.”
Xue Ling found Shen Yan and told him that he was going to the City of 10,000 Beasts.
Shen Yan said seriously, “Your trip to the City of 10,000 Beasts will definitely be very dangerous. You have to be careful.”
“I know.”
“Do you want me to send a few feathered beasts with you? All of you can take care of each other on the way there.”
Xue Ling was about to say no, but then he thought about it and changed his mind. “Alright, get two faster beasts to come with me. If anything happens later, I’ll get them to send a letter back.”
It seemed that he wanted to bring the feathered beasts with him so that he could deliver a letter if necessary.
Shen Yan looked at him speechlessly. “If you just want to send a letter, you can just get a few birds.”
“Ordinary birds can’t fly over the City of 10,000 Beasts. They’ll be shot down.”
“Alright, I’ll make the arrangements.”
Xue Ling tidied his clothes. “After I leave, remember to help take care of the Rock Wolf Tribe. If He Guang comes, you’ll represent the Rock Wolf Tribe to deal with him.”
Jiu Yuan’s status was not high enough. If he encountered He Guang, he would definitely suffer. It would be safer for Shen Yan to appear.
Shen Yan agreed. “I know what to do.”
Xue Ling was about to leave when he suddenly heard Shen Yan ask, “What’s with the sword tree at the foot of the mountain?”
A huge sword tree suddenly appeared at the foot of the mountain. It wasn’t just the Divine Wood clan as the feather tribe cared about it too.
Xue Ling smiled ambiguously. “That tree was grown by Huanhuan. I don’t know what happened exactly. You’ll have to ask her.”
He paused, then deliberately added, “But Huanhuan said that it’s a secret. Even if you ask, she won’t tell you the truth.”
Then it might’ve been better if he hadn’t said anything. Shen Yan was speechless. “I realize that ever since you became Huanhuan’s mate, you’ve been leaning more and more toward the Rock Wolf Tribe. Do you still remember that you’re an elder of our feather tribe?”
“I’ve been your elder for so many years and I’m tired of it. Can I quit?”
Shen Yan gritted his teeth. “Of course not!”
Xue Ling clicked his tongue. “How boring. I’m leaving.”
…
Xue Hui found Huanhuan and asked her about going to the City of 10,000 Beasts.
“Aren’t you wanted by the Elders’ Association in the City of 10,000 Beasts? It wasn’t easy for you to escape. If you send yourself to them now, won’t you be courting death?!”
Huanhuan comforted her. “Don’t worry, Bai Di, Shuang Yun, and Xue Ling will protect me. Besides, I can’t hide forever. The matter with Mather has to be resolved. This trial is a chance.”
Xue Hui was still very worried. “But it’s too dangerous for you to go to the City of 10,000 Beasts like this!”
Huanhuan told her their plan. “I’ll disguise myself and enter the City of 10,000 Beasts. I’ll try my best not to let anyone discover my true identity.”
“Will this work?”
“We won’t know until we try.”
Seeing that she was determined to go, Xue Hui knew that nothing would change even if she continued persuading Huanhuan. She could only sigh and say helplessly, “If you insist on going, please bring me along.”
Huanhuan was stunned. “Why do you want to go?”
“I have to keep you safe.”
“I have Bai Di, Shuang Yun, and Xue Ling with me. They’ll protect me.”
Xue Hui shook her head. “It’s different. They’re all male beasts. Male beasts have never been as meticulous as females. Besides, I’m friends with the Golden Leaf Chamber of Commerce. When we get to the City of 10,000 Beasts, I can ask the Golden Leaf Chamber of Commerce for help.”
Huanhuan thought for a moment. “I have to discuss it with Bai Di and the others.”
“Okay.”
Huanhuan found Bai Di and Shuang Yun and told them about Xue Hui’s request to go to the City of 10,000 Beasts with them.
Shuang Yun had no particular objections to this. “Let her be. It doesn’t matter if she goes or not.”
Bai Di said, “We can let her follow. She’s the representative of the Divine Wood clan. If we don’t let her follow, the entire Divine Wood clan will be worried about you.”
Huanhuan scratched her head. “I’m not made of mud. I won’t break when someone touches me. Do they have to watch me so closely?”
Bai Di smiled. “They’re worried about your safety, but they’re also afraid you’ll run away.”
“My home is here. Where else can I run to?”
“I don’t know.” Bai Di tucked her stray hair behind her ear. “You appeared out of nowhere and you seemed to have fallen from the sky. Who knows, you might suddenly disappear again one day?”
Huanhuan: “…”
