Chapter 91: Chapter 87, Too Bad_1
Ji Nuan, who was talking to Ge Ye, suddenly felt a weight on her lower leg. Looking down, she saw a chubby little Silver Wolf cub clinging to her like a koala from her previous life.
Its four pudgy legs were wrapped tightly around her, its round eyes looked up at her, and its little mouth kept opening and closing, sobbing non-stop.
Ge Ye, somewhat curious, looked at the chubby cub hugging Ji Nuan’s leg and acting spoiled. "Anuan, is this Xiu Qi’s cub?" she asked.
Ji Nuan couldn’t help but laugh. "This is Brother Xiu Yan. When he was injured last time, didn’t he turn into a little lion cub? Since reverting back to his Silver Wolf Beast form, he’s been a bit unstable, turning back into cub form multiple times a day so he needs to keep drinking the potion until his beast form stabilizes."
Ge Ye’s eyes lit up. "Brother Xiu Yan in cub form is so cute, even chubbier than Xiu Qi’s cub!"
"Biu~pu!~" Xiu Yan felt as if he had taken an arrow to the heart—it hurt!
Howling, he demanded hugs in order to be soothed.
Ji Nuan knew that Xiu Yan in his chubby cub state hated being called fat by other beasts—it caused an explosion every time.
She immediately squatted down, picked up the little cub, and gently stroked its fur in a soothing massage, apologizing for her friend’s offense.
Stunned by Xiu Yan’s good behavior, Ge Ye came into a terrible realization. Brother Xiu Yan’s head must have turned into a cub’s too.
She had to guard this secret for Anuan and Brother Xiu Yan.
"Anuan, Father asked me to tell you that we are leaving for the Tribal Gathering the day after tomorrow. You need to prepare soon."
Ji Nuan nodded, "Don’t worry, go back and tell Uncle Clan Leader that I am ready. He can put his mind at ease."
Suddenly, Ge Ye leaned in closer to Ji Nuan somewhat mischievously. "Anuan, when you go to the Tribal Gathering this time, can you help me get some Crunchy Sweet Fruits?
Song Yu will go this time to take my Beast Skin to barter but he’ll be busy with hunting and guarding our tribe with other Orcs during the gathering. I’m afraid he won’t be able to trade for the fruits."
Ji Nuan nodded, "No problem, I don’t have much to do, just trading for a few things I need. But I don’t know what Crunchy Sweet Fruits look like?"
"Last year during the Tribal Gathering, Di Feng only managed to trade a Beast Skin bag full of Crunchy Sweet Fruits, so I ate them all, haha~
When you get there, find the Orcs from the Gray Bear Tribe. They have a lot of Crunchy Sweet Fruits in their territory, and each year only they have surplus fruits to trade." Ge Ye scratched her head, looking a bit sheepish.
Ji Nuan laughed at the sight of the little glutton, Ge Ye. Feeling Ji Nuan’s amused gaze, Ge Ye laughingly replied, "Well, Anuan, I have to go! Don’t forget to bring me the Crunchy Sweet Fruits!" she said as she ran out of the cave.
Ji Nuan chuckled aloud and put down the chubby cub in her arms, "Alright now, you go and play. I’ll continue crafting some pottery."
Xiu Yan, surprisingly not sticking to her, gave a cute howl, then scampered off on his short chubby legs.
Our innocent Ji Nuan didn’t see the calculating gleam that flashed past in the little Silver Wolf cub’s round eyes as it scampered away.
Xiu Yan sneakily ran to the back mountain. The last time he went hunting, he killed a very ferocious Tiger Beast here and surprisingly found a precious Pregnancy Fruit Tree in the tiger’s cave.
Once he left the tribe, the chubby cub swiftly grew, and within moments, he transformed into a majestic, stern Silver Wolf. A few agile leaps and he disappeared deep into the forest.
···
Ge Ye was lying contentedly in her cave eating delicious fruits. The thought that she could have Crunchy Sweet Fruits during the cold season made her drool uncontrollably.
The supply of Crunchy Sweet Fruits in the tribal territory was too limited. Moreover, before they could gather the fruits, the pesky Humming Beasts would devour them unless they stumbled upon them by pure luck.
Otherwise, the only way to get Crunchy Sweet Fruits was to trade for them at the Tribal Gathering.
The Crunchy Sweet Fruits were valuable because they could be preserved for a long time. A female who traded for some at the Tribal Gathering could bury them in the earth to ration them out over the entire cold season.
In the cold season, with no fresh fruits available, Crunchy Sweet Fruits are the coveted food for females.
"Oh?" Suddenly, the sound of a young cub’s call entered Ge Ye’s ears, and she sat up.
She saw a Silver Wolf cub peeking into her cave entrance. It looked comically mischievous and absolutely adorable.
Ge Ye absolutely loved fluffy little cubs. Seeing this sweet and chubby little creature, she couldn’t contain her maternal instinct. Leaping off her Beast Skin mattress, she rushed to the cave entrance.
Her smile was as inviting as a grandmother coaxing a child. "Little cub, come in and play, your auntie has delicious fruits here~"
Xiu Yan studied the silly beast, Ge Ye, and suddenly his eyes hurt a little. He turned around to retrieve a small Beast Skin bag, extended a chubby paw into the bag to rummage around for a while, and finally produced a red fruit.
He then looked at Ge Ye expectantly. "Oh oh~"
