Chapter 263: Chapter 262, Stay? _1
Within a short while, Xiu Yan had arrived at the city wall with a few beasts in tow. He tossed the orc in his hands onto the ground. "He’s the clan leader of Gray Bear Tribe."
"Hmm?" Ge Xing raised an eyebrow, squatting down next to the orc. He swept aside the hair on the orc’s face. The familiar face that appeared before him was none other than the elder bear, who had visited the Watson tribe twice before.
Ge Xing picked up the seemingly dead elder bear, shaking him lightly. "Why is elder bear here?" He asked, turning to Xiu Yan for answers.
Xiu Yan curled his lip slightly in a smirk. "Not sure, but when we found him, he was hanging from a tree. There was blood everywhere."
Ji Nuan passed Xiu Yan the beast skin she was holding. "Then why have you guys returned just now?"
Xiu Yan smiled as he accepted the beast skin, still draping it around her. "As we were coming back, we spotted many wild beasts straggling behind. We took the opportunity to hunt down some. We have enough to last us many days."
Ying Yan and others rolled their eyes in annoyance. This smug Xiu Yan only knew how to show off in front of females. They were the ones who had painstakingly dragged the beasts back, weren’t they?
"Alright, let’s head back. We’ll know more when this old fellow wakes up," Xiu Yan concluded, signaling the end of a warm and eventful evening.
Perhaps due to the previous intensity, Ji Nuan felt overwhelmingly tired as soon as she returned to her tent. She snuggled up to her chubby silver wolf cub and fell asleep after washing up.
The chubby cub, Xiu Yan, wedged his round head into Ji Nuan’s neck, sniffing the scent of the young female that beasts loved. With a yawn, he closed his eyes.
...
The morning sunlight creeped quietly through the gaps in the beast skin curtain, playfully dancing on Ji Nuan’s face, rousing her from her sweet slumber.
The little cub who had snuggled into Ji Nuan’s arms before falling asleep had managed to roll to her waist, sprawling in his sleep with drool flowing from his mouth.
Ji Nuan covered the cub with a beast skin comforter and then quietly walked outside.
With the morning sunlight warmly caressing her face, Ji Nuan stretched comfortably, inhaling the fresh air. Her mood instantly elevated.
There were many hardworking orcs in the tribe who had already started cooking food. Upon seeing Ji Nuan, their naive faces broke into wide smiles.
Returning their smiles with a sweet one of her own, Ji Nuan greeted them.
"Ah Nuan! You woke up pretty early today!" Qi Mo was holding a small basket filled with grass seeds and tender grasses.
Do I usually wake up late?
Ji Nuan scratched her head, "Are you going to feed the Giggle Beasts and Gagabeasts?"
Qi Mo nodded, "Yep. After Pipi and I woke up, we went to gather some grass seeds and tender grasses for the Giggle Beasts. Pipi is still gathering more, and I’ve come back to feed them a bit first."
Ji Nuan laughed, "You go on, I’ll clean up inside after I’m done washing up. If it gets too dirty, the little ones can easily get sick and die."
Qi Mo nodded, and after a wave, she went towards the small animal circle.
After washing up with some water from a nearby porcelain jar, Ji Nuan changed into an old beast skin outfit and headed towards the area where the young animals were kept.
Qi Mo put the food in the feeding trough specifically for the cubs while Ji Nuan grabbed a broom made of tree branches to clean up the cubs’ feces from the enclosure.
Ji Nuan pursed her lips, and after some hesitation, turned to Qi Mo, "Qi Qi, are you and Pipi planning to stay in our tribe forever?"
