Chapter 417 Really not going in?

When the males who had been building the house returned home under the cover of night, they found the house unusually quiet that day.

Zhu Xiu's expression changed, and he quickly walked inside.

Yin Mei had just come out of the house to check on the wolf cubs when she bumped into her younger brother, who was returning from outside.

"You're back?" Yin Mei grabbed her younger brother's arm. "Something happened at home today. The wolf cub was bitten and hasn't woken up yet."

Upon hearing this, Yin Ze didn't have time to respond to Yin Mei and quickly followed Zhu Xiu into the house.

The males sensed something was wrong as soon as they entered the house.

Bai Wanwan and Xin Feng stood to the side, while the wolf cub lay on the stone bed, covered in wounds and looking extremely pitiful.

"what happened?"

Chief Rong walked to the stone bed and looked down at the wolf cubs on it.

This is the tiger clan under his jurisdiction, not in the wild. How could such a serious thing happen?

“Zai Zai’s prey was stolen today, and it was bitten to the point of near death. I noticed a strange smell on its body. Sister Yin Mei went to ask a witch doctor to check it out. Zai Zai was poisoned with a kind of herb that prevented it from moving, which is why it was bitten like this.”

After listening, Chief Rong turned to face her and said, "I will investigate this matter thoroughly and give you and Xin Feng an explanation."

Bai Wanwan shook her head at him, "As the clan leader, it's not good for you to get involved in this matter. I want to handle it myself."

If the chieftains intervene and show too much favoritism towards them, it will provoke discontent among the other orcs.

She wouldn't let this go so easily; she would use her own methods to avenge the wolf cub.

After listening, Chief Rong looked at Xin Feng, who was silent beside him, and asked, "You think so too?"

“Yes, Wanwan wants to vent her anger for the wolf cub in her own way, and so do I.”

The chieftain understood the feelings of the father beast. If his tiger cubs were bitten like that, he would also set aside his identity as the chieftain and resolve the matter in his own way.

"Since you've made this decision, then go with your plan. If you encounter any problems you can't solve, I'll help you."

With the chieftain's support, Bai Wanwan has nothing to fear.

She even wants to punch a hole in the sky to vent her anger!
Several beastmen stepped forward to comfort Bai Wanwan.

Zhu Xiu waited until everyone had dispersed before approaching.

"I'll go with you to find the orc who hurt the wolf cubs, do you want to go?"

Bai Wanwan suddenly turned her head, shifting her gaze from the wolf cub to him.

"Can you find it?"

"Try it."

During the day, she asked Xin Feng if they could find the orcs who hurt him by following the scent on the wolf cub, but the Tiger Clan was a super tribe, so searching like that would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

She thought that since the wolf cub had used a highly effective wound medicine, it should recover a lot by tomorrow after a night's sleep.

So she patiently waited.

Now that Zhu Xiu brought it up, Bai Wanwan couldn't hold back any longer.

He immediately said to Xin Feng, "Xin Feng, Zhu Xiu and I will go out and look for him. If we can find him, we will. If we can't find him, we'll wait for him to wake up. Please take good care of him tonight."

Xin Feng also wanted to go find him himself, but his wolf cub was so badly injured that he couldn't leave.

He can settle these scores when the child wakes up.

"Okay, you all need to be careful too."

The other beastmen had gone to look after the remaining cubs, and Xin Feng saw them off at the gate.

"Wanwan, come back once you find them, and we'll settle the score later."

"okay."

After waving to Xin Feng, Bai Wanwan was lifted up by Zhu Xiu's long tail, and his figure quickly glided across the tribal street.

At each fork in the road, Zhu Xiu would extend his snake tongue, seemingly trying to discern the aura.

They searched for a full three hours, with Bai Wanwan clinging tightly to his beast form. "How's it going? Are you almost there?"

"Yes, it's nearby." Zhu Xiu stared at the building in front of him and gave an affirmative answer.

"Since we're in this area, let's sneak in and search quietly. Your beast form is too big, why don't you transform into human form?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Xiu transformed into human form and walked beside her. "There are a lot of Yellow-Rank males around here, stay close to me."

The wolf cub also possesses Yellow-Rank talent, although it is young and lacks experience.

But the male that injured him was definitely not weak.

They slowly made their way inside; most of the orcs were already asleep.

Indescribable sounds could be heard coming from the courtyards of every household.

Zhu Xiu put his arm around her and led her to the door of a stone house.

"Here?" she turned to ask Zhu Xiu.

Zhu Xiu's gaze locked onto a piece of animal hide that had been peeled off on the ground.

The animal hide still has a strong wolf cub scent.

This must be the wild beast that the wolf cub hunted.

Zhu Xiu withdrew his gaze and landed on the tightly closed door. "Yes, this is it!"

Bai Wanwan stared at the tightly closed door, her eyes practically spitting fire!

"Do you want to go in?" Zhu Xiu's expression was calm. Even if there were four yellow-rank males inside, as long as Wanwan said she wanted to go in, he would not hesitate to take care of these beastmen for her.

Bai Wanwan seemed to know what he was thinking, reached out and grabbed him, shaking her head at him, "Don't rush, they hurt my baby, it's not that easy to just let them die silently."

Bai Wanwan remembered the stone house and said with restraint, "Zhu Xiu, let's go back first."

"You really aren't going in?"

Zhu Xiu stared at her face, seemingly trying to discern her expression.

"Hmm, I'm not going in, I'm going home."

In the end, Zhu Xiu accompanied Bai Wanwan back to their temporary residence.

As she entered the house, she heard the wolf cubs' cries and immediately let go of Zhu Xiu's hand, running into the house.

Zhu Xiu watched her run away, paused slightly, and followed closely behind.

Inside the house, Xin Feng was feeding meat to the wolf cubs.

It seemed to be starving, wolfing down its food as it ate, mumbling between bites, "Father, when is Mother coming back?"

"She'll be back soon, after you've eaten your fill."

As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Wanwan walked in from outside the door.

She rushed to the wolf cub's side and hugged it tightly. "My little one, does it still hurt?"

The wolf cub wasn't one to expose its weaknesses. It shook its head, enduring the pain, and said, "Mommy, I'm not in pain. Don't worry about me."

Tears welled up in Bai Wanwan's eyes. How could she not feel pain after being injured so badly?

But it didn't expose its cub's lie, it just hugged it loosely, saying, "Mommy will give you a good night's sleep..."

The wolf cubs greedily enjoyed the sweet scent and warmth of their mother's embrace.

It has grown up, and now the mother's embrace belongs exclusively to its younger siblings; it hasn't competed with them for it in a long time.

But at this moment, it still longed for its mother to hold it more.

Bai Wanwan hugged it, burying her face behind it, so the baby couldn't see the expression on her face.

Looking at the numerous wounds, large and small, her eyes also filled with pain.

"Father, I'm full."

The wolf cubs ate until their bellies were round and full before refusing further feeding from their father.

Just as Bai Wanwan was about to let go, it grabbed her clothes. "Mommy, can you sleep with me tonight?"

In the orc world, half-grown cubs have already become independent and rarely stay close to their female mothers.

But seeing the way his cub looked at Wanwan, Xin Feng still couldn't bring himself to refuse the wolf cub covered in wounds.

Bai Wanwan had already rolled over and lay down, holding the wolf cub in her arms. "Okay, Mommy will stay with my good cub tonight."
