Chapter 149: Chapter 150, The Beast Appears_1
With her little short legs flurrying, how could she let the little female beast stay idle!
Ji Nuan was busy by the stove, frying a mix of prickly ash, chili, and some dried fruits in the boiling Humming Beast oil. With that sizzling sound, the aroma instantly evoked the taste in her memory.
Spicy and fragrant, it made her mouth water.
The aroma from the prickly ash and chili attracted chubby Xiu Yan. As soon as he scampered into the kitchen, he was hit squarely by the acrid scent.
"Ah-choo! Ah-choo!" He sneezed out in response.
Not sure if it was because his sneezes were too forceful, or he couldn’t keep his balance while running, Xiu Yan, our chubby cub, tumbled into a little meatball after the second sneeze.
Our little chubby ball rolled to Ji Nuan’s feet. Dizzy Xiu Yan stood up slowly, sat his chubby butt on Ji Nuan’s foot, shook his round little head, and took a long while to recover.
Then he looked up at the little female cub...
"!!!" Why is the little female cub’s face so red? Could she have been burned by the fire!?
Instantly forgetting about his attempted cuteness, he morphed into an Orc with caring wolf eyes, lifted her fair face with both hands: "Did you get burned by the fire?"
Ji Nuan, who had been struggling to contain her laughter, couldn’t hide her smile anymore. At Xiu Yan’s gesture, she burst into laughter, and soon was rolling in fits of laughter on the ground.
While our cub Xiu Yan remained in his face-holding posture, his deep wolf eyes became darker. Only he knew that under his silver hair, his ears were blushing enough to let off smoke.
So...
The little female cub wasn’t burned by fire but was laughing at his foolishness just now?
Dignified Silver Wolf Orc stood up: "I’m going to bring some firewood inside."
Opening the door, he left in a rush.
Ji Nuan wiped away her tears of laughter, standing up. Watching the towering Orc that fled in disarray, a wave of warmth washed over her.
...
Liangshan Tribe.
In the quiet, cold cave, Ped sat by the fire, carefully calculating the distribution of food.
Suddenly, a panic-stricken voice broke the silence within the cave.
"Clan Leader! A fierce beast broke into the tribe, and several Orcs were injured!"
Ped stood up: "What? It’s only the first snowfall, how could a fierce beast have broken into the tribe!"
He grabbed the fur from the side as a wrap while anxiously asking, heading towards the entrance to the cave.
...
"Nuannuan!" Xiu Yan’s voice rang inside the courtyard. Ji Nuan put down her spoon and peeked out the window.
This robust giant, catching his breath, was stepping through the snow with a beast nearly the size of tribal Orc in his beast form. However, this one looked even more fierce; sharp teeth protruded from its mouth, and there was even a horn on its forehead.
Ji Nuan looked at Xiu Yan somewhat surprised, "What kind of beast is this?"
Xiu Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, with an ill mood, "This is not a beast, but a wild animal from the depths of Eneru Mountain."
After cleaning the blood off his body with snow, Xiu Yan stepped into the house: "Fierce beasts only embark from the deep mountains and attack the Orc Tribes when their food sources get scarce towards the end of winter. However, I just encountered this beast in the tribe."
Ji Nuan’s joy over the new food source vanished instantly, "We need to alert the tribespeople about it as soon as possible."
