Chapter 396 Drag
"It's really you!"

The cobra-man's vertical pupils suddenly contracted, and its tongue trembled violently, revealing extreme excitement.

“We come from the same tribe! They drove you away back then, and they abandoned me just the same way!”

Zhu Xiu casually flicked his snake tail, his scarlet eyes flashing with a dangerous light: "Oh? What terrible thing did you do to be expelled from the tribe?"

"I was just mating with a female who had just reached adulthood!"

The snake-beastman suddenly raised his head excitedly, his eyes blazing with a frenzied hatred. "Those hypocrites! I swear I'll go back and take revenge! But..." His tone suddenly shifted to a morbid pleasure, "Being a wandering beastman isn't so bad. I can possess any female I fancy..."

"Heh..." Bai Wanwan couldn't help but sneer, "You'd better take a look at how many orcs are around. Saying such things in front of us, do you have a death wish?"

The snake-beastman then noticed the petite figure at the back of the crowd, and his vertical pupils instantly flashed with greedy light: "Zhu Xiu! Take her with you! From now on, we'll form an alliance, and we can go back together to take revenge in the future."

"Okay."

The candle swam slowly, its scales rubbing together and making a chilling sound.

"Wait! I told you to take that female with you!" the snake-beastman said urgently, flicking his tongue.

In his mind, mutated snake beasts were all solitary wanderers, and even when he saw Zhu Xiu traveling with other beastmen, he only thought of them as temporary companions.

“There are too many males around her.” Zhu Xiu deliberately lowered his voice, sending a dangerous signal. “However… if we join forces…”

The snake-beastman immediately arched his back excitedly: "Yes! Let's go together..."

"I'll draw attention, you're in charge of snatching them away." Zhu Xiu nodded after pretending to ponder.

The snake-beastman eagerly tightened its grip on Yin Mei's tail, causing her to groan in pain.

Yin Ze, Kong Lai, and Bai Wanwan, who were in the distance, tensed up, their fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

At this critical moment.

hiss!
Suddenly, Zhu Xiu sprang into action, his venomous fangs piercing deep into the back of his kin!

"You..." The snake-beastman's eyes widened in disbelief, and his massive body crashed to the ground. "Why?"

He struggled desperately, but could only vomit black blood in vain.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Yin Ze and Kong Lai rushed forward and rescued the dying Yin Mei.

“We are of the same race…” the snake-beastman gasped for breath, “Why… did you kill me for the sake of other orcs?”

Zhu Xiu looked down at him with disdain, his scarlet vertical pupils cold and ruthless: "Have you forgotten that I am a mutated snake beast, insidious and ruthless? You've allied with me? Are you hoping I'll believe you, or do you actually believe me?"

“I didn’t mean to harm you…” The snake-beastman’s pupils began to dilate. “I only wanted to go back with you because you and I are both snake-beasts and were expelled from the tribe, so we can take revenge in the future.”

"Is that so?" Zhu Xiu swept his dying kin down the waterfall with his tail, creating a huge splash. "What do those snake beasts have to do with me?"

On the other side, Bai Wanwan hurriedly checked on Yin Mei's condition: "Sister Yin Mei, are you alright?"

"It's nothing... Wanwan." Yin Mei smiled weakly at her, then opened her eyes and began searching for Kong Lai.

Kong Lai grabbed her hand. "I'm here. Are you... badly hurt?"

"I'm fine. He just squeezed me too tightly and I couldn't catch my breath."

Kong Lai held her partner's hand tightly, her voice choked with emotion: "It's good that you're back..."

Seeing that they couldn't tolerate anyone else between them, Bai Wanwan pulled Yin Ze's hand and slowly backed away. "Let them be alone for a while."

In response to Yin Ze's questioning gaze, Bai Wanwan raised her chin and said, "Your sister and Kong Lai have just reunited and are not yet ready to accept anyone else, so don't go and disturb them."

Seeing Kong Lai's performance, Yin Ze was completely relieved.

This male truly loves his female sister and is protecting her with his life, but he is not strong enough, allowing the snake-beastman to take advantage of the situation.

At this moment, Zhu Xiu had returned to human form and walked over. Bai Wanwan couldn't help but ask, "Was that one from earlier... one of your kind? Actually, we could have spared his life and asked him about your tribe..."

“There’s no need,” Zhu Xiu said coldly. “Those things are none of my concern.”

Bai Wanwan knew that he had truly let go and didn't want to have anything to do with the orcs who had abandoned him.

But she's petty and won't let it go so easily.

Imagine him being driven out of the tribe at such a young age, where the law of the jungle plays out every day.

He was still a snake cub; how many terrible things would he have to go through to survive?

She quietly reached out and took his hand. "How can it be okay? At least we can get some information from him. They dared to abandon you, so we'll go back and get our revenge."

Zhu Xiu sensed the female's concern and care for her, and chuckled, "Why get angry? I don't even remember them. There's no need to make yourself unhappy over unrelated beastmen."

"But I can't swallow this insult, you're still so young."

The coldness in Zhu Xiu's eyes lessened slightly. "Hmm, if you can't swallow this anger, I'll take you back to vent your anger. You can do whatever you want with me."

"Alright, once everything settles down, we'll go to the tribe where you were born and settle accounts with them!"

Now that Yoon-mi has been found, it's not appropriate for everyone to linger outside.

The group of orcs set off on their way back.

By the time they returned to the Peacock Tribe, Yinmei had fully recovered.

She walked behind Bai Wanwan, hand in hand. After spending the past two days with Bai Wanwan, the fear of being kidnapped by the snake beastmen had dissipated considerably.

“Wanwan, Kong Lai and I will go to the Tiger Clan with you. We will cause you trouble. This is Kong Lai’s clan. We will stay here and they will help us on a daily basis. You don’t need to worry.”

Yin Mei was also reluctant to part with her younger brother, but after he and Wanwan became a couple, he went to settle down in the Tiger Clan. He was an outsider beastman and had no family support.

Now he wants to bring her along, but she doesn't want to be a burden to him.

Bai Wanwan gripped her hand tightly. "What help could they possibly offer? If we hadn't come back in time, you wouldn't be here today. If Yin Ze knew, he would feel incredibly guilty."

Yin Mei looked at her younger brother's retreating figure with guilt: "It's all my fault for dragging you down..."

"Relatives should help each other. Look at me, I'm just a weak female, and I've also encountered many things. According to you, I'm often a burden to my male."

“It’s only right for males to take care of their females, how can it be a burden?” Yin Mei shook her head, disagreeing.

Bai Wanwan smiled and said, "Then you are Yin Ze's older sister, so it is only right that he takes care of you. Sister Yin Mei, don't worry about anything else. Go pack your things and come with us."

"But……"

“My sister saved me too, so from now on we’re family.” Bai Wanwan looked at her with a warm smile on her face. “Family should stay together forever.”
