Chapter 553 Departure
"Wanwan, don't rush." Chief Rong gently placed his steady hand on her shoulder, stopping her hurried movements. "Calm down first. You're pregnant, so you can't overexert yourself. Let Yin Ze go first; he's the fastest among us. It's best to let him check on Hua Han's condition first. If he finds him and makes sure he's safe, I'll have Zhu Xiu and Xin Feng escort you there at daybreak tomorrow."
He tried to soothe her anxiety, his voice low and reassuring.
"You know my body is different from other females. Being pregnant won't affect anything. I'll be fine." Bai Wanwan frowned, but still insisted.
Looking at her anxious little face, Chief Rong sighed, "Wanwan, we know you're special. But as your beast mates, we can't let you travel so late at night. Listen to me, get a good night's rest and recharge. We'll set off during the day tomorrow, and I won't stop you."
Bai Wanwan pursed her lips, feeling like she was being scratched by a cat, but still refused to nod.
Hua Han is alone outside, and may even be injured. Every moment she delays her arrival increases his danger.
Seeing her struggle, Chief Rong continued to gently persuade her, "Yin Ze will be much faster than our large group if he goes alone. He is a Red-Rank expert with rich experience and is capable of handling any unexpected situation. Let him go find Hua Han first; it will be faster than us all rushing over together. Wait a moment, I'll go and call Yin Ze over."
After saying this, Chief Rong gently patted her back, got up, and strode away.
Not long after, the door was pushed open again, and not only Yin Ze arrived, but Zhu Xiu, Xin Feng, and Yan Lie, who had heard the commotion, also followed him in.
Clearly, the chieftain had already briefly explained the situation to them when he went out.
"Wanwan, is there any news about Hua Han?" Yan Lie, being the most impatient, couldn't help but ask.
“Yes,” Bai Wanwan nodded, “I’m very worried about him. I think something has happened to him. We have to go find him quickly, otherwise I’m afraid he will disappear again like last time.”
Zhu Xiu stepped forward, his dark snake eyes fixed on her, his voice low yet reassuring: "Wanwan, Chief Rong just told us. We discussed it and unanimously agreed with his idea. Let Yin Ze go ahead and go as quickly as possible to confirm. You should rest well tonight, and tomorrow morning, a few of us will personally escort you there."
Xin Feng gently added, "Yes, Wanwan. Yin Ze is the fastest when traveling alone, so he can get there first. We'll get ready tonight, and we can meet up with them quickly tomorrow morning."
Seeing the unanimous concern and persistence in the eyes of the beastmen, and considering that Yin Ze was indeed moving faster on his own, Bai Wanwan's heart finally tipped.
She hesitated for a moment, but finally gave in, only instructing him, "Then... alright. Yin Ze, you must be careful. After you find him, make sure he's safe first, and leave us a signal. If... if he's seriously injured, try to stabilize the situation first and wait for me to come."
"Okay, Wanwan, don't worry." Yin Ze nodded solemnly.
"Here, take this. Use it on Hua Han if it's an emergency." She handed him the highly effective wound medicine.
After giving her instructions, Bai Wanwan took out the Tracking Bird from her system space.
It circled the white canyon once, then shot out of the window with a "whoosh" like an arrow, instantly disappearing into the night.
"Then I'll be going now. I'll leave some markers along the way." Without further delay, before he finished speaking, he had already dashed out of the window like a wisp of smoke, following the direction of the tracking bird. His speed was so fast that he only left a blur in the air.
Bai Wanwan chased after the phoenix to the window, but could only see its receding shadow.
"Wanwan, don't worry, Yinze will find Huahan."
The beastmen took turns comforting her.
"Okay, you guys go and get some rest. We'll set off tomorrow morning."
It was indeed getting late, and the males, not wanting to disturb her rest, left one after another, leaving only the chieftain behind. The bedroom fell silent again, and the chieftain pulled her back into his arms, covering her with the soft animal skin blanket.
The drowsiness that should have been there after all that fussing was completely dispelled by her worry for Hua Han. Bai Wanwan kept her eyes open, wide awake.
Chief Rong keenly sensed the tension in her body and the worry in her heart. His broad, warm hands gently and rhythmically stroked her back, his voice deep and magnetic: "Perhaps by the time we arrive tomorrow, Hua Han will have already taken good care of you. You need to rest now, for yourself and for the baby in your belly."
Bai Wanwan leaned against his strong chest, listening to his powerful heartbeat, and her anxious heart gradually calmed down.
She thought to herself, "That makes sense. As long as I find Hua Han, even if he is seriously injured, as long as he still has a breath left, I have a way to use the system to save him."
Thinking about it this way, my tense nerves finally relaxed a little.
She now only hopes that time will pass faster, faster, and that tomorrow will come sooner so that she can go with the beastmen to pick up Hua Han and take her home.
In the comforting embrace and gentle caresses of the chieftain, she slowly relaxed, her heavy eyelids finally closing gently as she drifted off to sleep once more.
When she woke up again, it was already bright outside the window, and the soft morning light filled the bedroom through the window.
She subconsciously looked around and found that Chief Rong was still at home, which was unusual, instead of going out early to handle tribal affairs as usual.
"Awake?" Chief Rong lay on his side, propping his head up with his hand as he looked at her.
“Yes,” Bai Wanwan nodded and immediately sat up. “It’s already dawn, we have to set off.”
"Okay, Xin Feng and the others are ready. Get up, wash up, eat something, and then we can set off."
Chief Rong also stood up. "We've already divided the tasks. I'll stay in the tribe to look after the children. Zhu Xiu, Xin Feng, and Yan Lie will escort you to find Hua Han. They're all ready and waiting outside."
Upon hearing this, Bai Wanwan immediately got up, washed, and dressed.
She was anxious, and her movements were much faster than usual.
Before leaving, she replaced the simulated seawater for the baby mermaids.
Then he went to see his other offspring one by one.
Finally, they even made a special trip to Aunt Shuang's residence.
Shuanghua was drying animal hides in the courtyard when she saw Bai Wanwan and her group all ready to go, and she was somewhat surprised.
“Aunt Shuang,” Bai Wanwan took her hand, “I have to go out for a while. Chief Rong may be too busy to take care of everything, so I’ll have to trouble you to look after the children when you have time.”
Shuanghua nodded immediately and patted her hand affectionately: "Don't worry, Aunt Shuang is here! Leave the children to me, you can go out with peace of mind, but be sure to be careful and come back safely."
"Thank you, Aunt Shuang." Bai Wanwan felt a warmth in her heart and hugged Shuanghua tightly. "We will be back as soon as possible."
