Chapter 563 Advance and retreat together
"Really?" Hua Han hugged her tightly, feeling the warmth and softness in his arms, his heart pounding.

"Well, don't worry. Once I give birth to this baby, I'll have enough points to exchange for a potion to completely clear away that black mist and help you fully recover."

That night, although Hua Han was extremely excited and tried all sorts of tricks, as if he wanted to make up for the time and love he had missed, he was still concerned about her health and the baby in her belly. He always restrained his strength in his movements, being extremely affectionate, but carefully avoiding hurting her.

Finally, in a state of extreme satisfaction and exhaustion, he held the soft, fragrant female in his arms tightly, as if she were a priceless treasure, and fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, Bai Wanwan was the first to wake up.

Morning light streamed into the room through the cracks in the stone window.

She moved slightly and found that Hua Han's arms were still firmly wrapped around her waist, holding her in his arms in an absolutely possessive posture.

She stared at him for a while before raising her hand to quietly move his arm away so she could get up first.

However, the moment her fingers touched his arm, Hua Han immediately opened his eyes.

When Bai Wanwan met his gaze, the deep affection, cunning, or clarity she had shown the night before were gone from her beautiful peach blossom eyes; only a familiar, empty blankness and bewilderment remained.

He was brought under control again.

Bai Wanwan sighed inwardly. It would be a lie to say she wasn't disappointed, but she felt even more heartache.

She raised her hand and gently stroked his face, which was more beautiful than many females, her voice as gentle as if she were coaxing a child: "It's still early, you can sleep a little longer, I'll get up and wash up first, okay?"

However, Hua Han, in a "confused" state, was unwilling to let go. Instead, she tightened her grip even more, making a muffled gurgling sound in her throat to indicate her refusal, and burying her face in her shoulder.

Helpless, Bai Wanwan had no choice but to muster all her patience and coax him gently for a while, like a kindergarten teacher coaxing a child. Hua Han seemed to understand and slowly and reluctantly let go of her hand.

After escaping, Bai Wanwan quickly dressed and walked out of the stone house.

Zhu Xiu, Xin Feng, and Yin Ze had already woken up and were talking quietly in the open space outside.

She relayed the information Hua Han had shared with her beast husbands the previous night, in its entirety and in detail.

After hearing her words, the expressions of the three of them became serious.

Zhu Xiu spoke first, his voice low and serious: "If what Hua Han said is true, then the situation outside is more dangerous than we imagined. Wanwan, we can't linger here any longer; we must return to the Tiger Clan tribe as soon as possible to discuss this further."

“Okay,” Bai Wanwan nodded immediately, “Then let’s pack up and get ready to go.”

“Yes,” Xin Feng agreed, “We’ll set off immediately once Yan Lie returns from his hunt.”

Bai Wanwan finished her breakfast under the care of several animal husbands.

She went back inside and stayed with Hua Han for a while.

When Xin Feng came into the house to see her, she couldn't help but ask, "Hasn't Yan Lie come back yet?"

After her conversation with Hua Han last night, she is now quite nervous, fearing that Yan Lie might encounter some trouble when he goes out.

"Hmm, he hasn't returned yet," Xin Feng gently reassured her, noticing her worry. "Yan Lie is now a Crimson-Rank male. Even if he encounters danger and can't withstand it head-on, escaping won't be a problem."

Wanwan reluctantly accepted his reassurance, but still couldn't help looking around frequently in the following days. It wasn't until the afternoon that Yanlie's voice reached Bai Wanwan's ears.

Bai Wanwan quickly comforted Hua Han before walking out.

He did not return alone; he was followed by several disheveled orcs who were supporting each other, including a female.

In the wild, it is rare to see stray females.

Bai Wanwan was somewhat surprised and immediately stepped forward.

She noticed that Yan Lie was talking urgently with the injured orcs, and the two seemed... very familiar with each other?

"Yan Lie, what happened?" Bai Wanwan slowly approached.

Yan Lie turned around, his face unusually solemn and anxious, completely devoid of his usual sunny and cheerful demeanor.

He saw his female, took a few steps closer, reached out and grasped her shoulder, his voice quick and urgent: "Wanwan, the Leopard Clan has been attacked! They are my people, they are fleeing from the tribe! I have to go back immediately to see what has happened to my father, mother, brothers, and sisters!"

After he finished speaking, he tightened his grip on Bai Wanwan's shoulder, as if he had made up his mind: "I am very relieved that Xin Feng and Zhu Xiu are with you. You go back to the Tiger Clan as planned! I will go back to the Leopard Clan first to check the situation. Once the tribe is settled, I will go back to the Tiger Clan to find you."

Before he finished speaking, he let go of her hand and turned to leave immediately.

"Wait!" Bai Wanwan reacted quickly, grabbing his wrist and saying firmly, "How can I feel at ease letting you go to such a dangerous place alone?"

Yan Lie stopped in his tracks because she grabbed his hand, so as not to hurt her.

He turned to look at her, his eyes filled with worry for his people and concern for her: "Wanwan! The situation of the Leopard Clan is unclear, and it may be very dangerous! You can't go. I'll only feel at ease if you go back to the Tiger Clan."

“Precisely because it’s dangerous, I can’t let you go alone.” Bai Wanwan didn’t back down, gripping his wrist tightly. “To cause such great damage, there must be Red-Rank experts among those attackers! What if there’s more than one? If you go back alone, wouldn’t you be walking into a trap? If we go together, we can look out for each other!”

“But…” Yan Lie frowned, his gaze sweeping over her slightly protruding belly, his worry almost overflowing, “Your body…”

Bai Wanwan had also struggled with this decision for a short time.

She was definitely worried about Yan Lie leaving alone.

But if he were to send the other two beastmen with him, they wouldn't feel comfortable leaving him alone.

Therefore, the only option now is for everyone to go together so that they can look out for each other.

"I'm fine, don't worry."

As Bai Wanwan spoke, she turned to look at Zhu Xiu, Xin Feng, and Yin Ze, "I'd like to come along. What do you think?"

Yin Ze spoke first, “Yan Lie, Wanwan is right. I can’t rest easy letting you return to the perilous Leopard Clan alone. Since the Leopard Clan was attacked, it’s very likely that it’s the same force that Hua Han encountered. If we go together, we can not only lend a hand to the Leopard Clan, but also investigate the details of this force more deeply.”

Xin Feng also spoke up gently, his logic clear: "That's right. The Tiger Clan has its chieftain in charge, so they're safe for now. As for the Leopard Clan, if the attack was carried out by that dark force, their future targets might not be the Tiger Clan. It's crucial to understand the situation in advance and take precautions. Let's go together and protect Wanwan together."
