Chapter 282: The gun went off
In the heat of the moment, no one was willing to listen to anything they said.

Some of the orcs even rushed over excitedly, wanting to attack Zhuxiu.

Bai Wanwan immediately patted Zhu Xiu's back, "Zhu Xiu, put me down."

In this situation, it's easy for things to go wrong.

Zhu Xiu wasn't the type to take things lying down. If she angered him, Bai Wanwan worried that he would kill all the orcs.

It might not end well then.

After all, the chieftain of the Golden Lion tribe treated them fairly well.

This whole thing was already suspicious; if we escalate the conflict, we'll probably be playing right into their hands.

"It's too messy here, I can't let you come down," Zhu Xiu said, glancing back at her.

In that split second, two males rushed over, their sharp claws attempting to pierce Zhu Xiu's abdomen.

But it was like piercing a hard rock, unable to make any progress.

hiss……

Zhu Xiu quickly turned his head, his snake mouth wide open, and swallowed the two males.

"Zhu Xiu, don't kill them."

Bai Wanwan clearly felt Zhu Xiu's body stop, then he bit down on the two golden lions, swung his head, and smashed the two golden lions out of the crowd.

The surrounding golden lions became even more enraged, shouting, "You foreign beastmen, you take advantage of your superior talent to bully and kill our people at will!"

"Yes, let's unite and kill them!"

The golden lions surged forward in anger.

Xin Feng also transformed into a silver wolf, ready to attack at any moment.

Bai Wanwan felt anxious seeing this scene.

Why don't we just give them all itching powder and let them scratch their itch on the side first?

Just do it...

At this point, she couldn't care less about anything else. If she accidentally killed these orcs in the fight, that would be a really bad situation.

Just as she was about to press the confirm button to exchange for itching powder, the furious voice of the Golden Cang Clan Chief came from outside the beast horde.

"Stop! What are you all doing?"

Chief Jin Cang led Jin Yue and the other males through the beasts and quickly entered.

He was also surprised to see the corpses of several orcs on the ground.

Upon hearing the clan leader's voice, the out-of-control golden lions gradually calmed down and slowly stepped aside to make way.

But the resentment and anger on his face did not diminish.

"Chieftain, these foreign orcs have killed our people. Please, Chieftain, uphold justice."

"Yes, kill them, avenge Kim Hee!"

Jin Cang was having a headache. His original intention was to build a good relationship with the Holy Mother Bai Wanwan, but now that this had happened, if he didn't handle it well, it might even turn into an enemy.

He raised his hand to signal all the orcs to quiet down.

The chieftain represents supreme prestige in the hearts of the tribe's orcs.

The sounds that had been rising and falling finally disappeared.

Chief Jin Cang turned around to face Bai Wanwan, Zhu Xiu, and Xin Feng.

"This matter is of great importance. Please answer my questions truthfully."

"Chief, we didn't kill these males. As for the rest of your questions, we will answer them truthfully."

Hearing Bai Wanwan's words, Jin Cang finally felt relieved. As long as Jin Xi wasn't killed by them, there was still room for maneuver.

"They were already dead when you arrived?"

“Yes, we only discovered them before the Golden Lion tribe’s orcs,” Xin Feng replied.

"Chief, they are definitely lying."

“When we arrived, there were no other orcs besides them. They were the ones who killed Jinxi.”

Chief Jin Cang raised his hand to signal them to stop making a fuss, and continued to ask, "Then why did you come here? Do you have any grudges against Jin Xi?"

That's a difficult question to answer. If I answer truthfully, they'll become even more suspicious.

Just as Bai Wanwan hesitated about how to answer, Zhu Xiu spoke up: "No need to ask. Although we didn't kill these males, I chased after them to kill them."

The surrounding area immediately erupted in commotion. "Chieftain, did you hear that? This outsider beastman doesn't respect our Golden Lions at all!"

"Please, clan leader, punish them."

Zhu Xiu's scarlet vertical pupils shifted and landed on the orcs who were speaking.

“I will investigate this matter thoroughly. You did not witness them killing Kim Hee, and they said they arrived just a step ahead of you.”

"Wait a minute..." Bai Wanwan suddenly remembered something and asked, "Why did you all rush this way just now?"

"Is it because some orcs told us that females here are being bullied?"

"Yes, yes, we've also heard that males are bullying females."

"That's right. The orcs who lured you here are the real murderers of Jinxi, and their purpose in doing so was to make you misunderstand us..."

Jin Cang thought to himself that it was fortunate that he knew Bai Wanwan's identity as the Holy Mother from the beginning, and also knew about some of the grudges between her and Zhuo Ling.

Otherwise, without knowing anything, they might misunderstand them because of Kim Hee's murder, causing irreparable conflict.

"Everyone, you've heard that. There are still some doubts about this matter. Please disperse for now. I will have someone continue the investigation."

The clan chief spoke, and they began to sense that something was amiss, so they slowly dispersed.

When only Bai Wanwan and her beast husband remained.

Jin Cangcai turned to look at them, "Do you know who did this?"

Bai Wanwan shook her head. "We didn't see any other orcs when we came here. If I had known, I would have told you just now. But please believe me, we really didn't do this."

"Yes, I believe you. With your beastman's abilities, it would be easy for him to make a move. There's no need to lie."

Jin Cang sighed, "It's not safe outside lately, so try not to leave the tribe. If you're going hunting, go with several males."

Bai Wanwan hesitated for a moment before asking, "Has the young clan leader already told you?"

“Yes, he said he killed Xiong Zong, but I know it wasn’t him.”

Zhu Xiu lowered his eyes and admitted directly, "I killed him. He played dirty tricks, and I won't let him leave alive."

Jin Cang looked at him with wise and weathered eyes. "As a male, I might make the same choice as you, but... this matter started because of you. I hope you can forgive those golden lions. If I need your help in the future, I hope you can lend a hand."

Chief Jin Cang had assumed that Zhu Xiu would not agree, but he was merely trying to speak up.

The tribe is now facing danger. If Bai Wanwan can stay, her powerful beastmen husbands will be the backbone of the tribe.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Xiu did not hesitate and nodded in agreement.

"it is good."

Chief Jin Cang laughed, but his smile was somewhat heavy.

Bai Wanwan pursed her lips and said to him, "I'm sorry, Chieftain, this matter was caused by me and has brought trouble to the Golden Lion Tribe."

Chief Jin Cang smiled and shook his head. "No, it has nothing to do with you. You're the one who got dragged into this. This is a conflict between us and the Bear Clan that has lasted for hundreds of years, but it's irreconcilable now."

With Xiong Zong gone, the Xiong clan will definitely retaliate against their tribe!
