Bringing a System to the Beast World

Chapter 241 Let it become ours

The two beasts fell silent for a moment, then chuckled awkwardly, "What bad things could we possibly do? We're both upright beastmen."

“I heard you talking about doing bad things.”

Her round eyes looked at the two orcs, filled with suspicion.

Their conversation reminded him of what had happened to the Black Wolf tribe before.
"So you were the ones who released the stinging wasps in the straw hut of the Mad Lion Tribe's shaman disciples?"

Yuan Lang calmly replied, "It wasn't me, it was Teng Qian."

Wu Yue chuckled: "You think you should change your name."

Yuan Lang looked at her in confusion: "Change what?"

He felt that the name was still barely worthy of his excellent self.

Wu Yue said in a serious tone, "The scapegoat."

Yuan Lang chuckled inwardly. So this little female is a江湖 (jianghu, a term referring to the martial arts world) person?
Only in the martial arts world would people be called knights-errant.

Yuan Lang, who thought he knew Wu Yue's true identity, was secretly very pleased with himself.

A moment later, Yuan Qi, having perfectly ended his smug journey, returned to the group with a humming laugh.

"This salt cave must belong to our Snow Tiger tribe, but first we must ensure that it is not discovered by the orcs of the Black Wolf tribe."

Do you have any good ideas?

Wu Yue frowned: "Why isn't this cave located within our tribe's territory?"

After a moment of silence, Yuan Lang's long, slender hand with distinct knuckles instantly transformed into a furry tiger claw.

Then its sharp claws extended, digging a hole in the ground with a swipe, its eyes filled with determination: "Then let it become ours."

Teng Qian, standing to the side, nudged his younger brother's strong waist: "Is the eldest trying to conquer someone by force again?" Teng Kun nodded in agreement, "Indeed."

Yuan Qi frowned and looked at him: "You mean to seize this territory of the Black Wolf Tribe?"

Looking at the small pit on the ground, Wu Yue had a different thought: "Yuan Lang probably didn't mean that."

Yuan Qi looked at him upon hearing this: "Oh?"

Wu Yuexiao turned her head and pointed to the pit: "Yuan Lang's idea should be to have the beastmen connect this cave to our tribe's territory, and in a way that the Black Wolf tribe can't find it, right?"

She looked at Yuan Langdao, whose large hand was slowly returning to its orc form.

A hint of appreciation flashed in the orc's eyes: "The little female guessed correctly."

He looked at his father and said, "It's impossible for us to come directly to the Black Wolf Tribe's territory to dig for salt, unless, as you said, this territory becomes our Snow Tiger Tribe's."

Therefore, the way to bring the salt home without being discovered by the Black Wolf tribe is for us to dig an underground road leading to our Snow Tiger tribe.”

Yuan Qi's eyes lit up: "A great idea to connect the Salt Cave to our tribe's territory underground!"

Wu Yue nodded: "This cave is very deep. We can start digging at night and rest during the day so that we won't be discovered by the Black Wolf tribe."

"Father, after you go back, you can have the remaining tribesmen find a secluded place to dig from the other side of the tribe towards this side. That way, it will be faster."

After the three beastmen finished their seminar, they quietly summoned the other beastmen to assign tasks.

Teng Qian and Teng Kun were assigned to stand guard. Don't ask why; as Yuan Lang's staunch followers, they were the ones left behind.

Wu Yue chose to stay in the cave with Yuan Lang and the others.
