Chapter 669 Male Meeting

The heat penetrated the fabric, almost setting Bai Wanwan ablaze.

Bai Wan's body stiffened slightly at first, but then she relaxed in Zhu Xiu's familiar and reassuring breath and kiss.

She closed her eyes, feeling his burgeoning strength and restrained passion, and tried her best to respond to him.

She could feel the changes in his body; his taut muscles and increasingly heavy breathing were signs of his desire.

The days of travel and the previous tension had indeed left her physically and mentally exhausted, but at this moment, feeling Zhu Xiu's enthusiasm, she also felt the same longing in her heart.

However, just when she thought Zhu Xiu would take the next step, he slowly ended the deep kiss.

His forehead pressed against hers, his breath still hot, spraying onto the tip of her nose.

Those dark eyes churned with an unfading lust, so deep it almost seemed to draw you in.

But he used great self-control to suppress the urge that was raging within him.

His rough fingertips gently brushed against her slightly swollen lips, his voice hoarse and deep with emotion: "Sweetie, you should rest today."

He gently placed her on the soft mattress, pulled over the blanket beside her, and carefully covered her with it, his movements even described as tender, concealing the glimpse of her skin revealed beneath her slightly disheveled clothes from their earlier intimacy.

“I still need to wait for the chieftain to return and find out what’s going on outside,” he explained, his large hand stroking her small, fair cheek, his thumb caressing her skin with affection.

The desire in his eyes was gradually covered by a deeper, more complex emotion, one that contained concern, responsibility, and a hint of tenderness that was barely perceptible: "You're tired, go to sleep first."

Looking at his restrained expression, Bai Wanwan thought to herself that today was indeed not a good time.

She was indeed exhausted; once her forced composure was broken, a deep weariness washed over her.

She curved her lips into a smile, giving him a tired yet sweet one, and nodded obediently: "Okay, then you should get some rest too."

After saying that, she closed her eyes, and almost instantly, her tense nerves completely relaxed, her breathing quickly became even and long, and she fell into a deep sleep.

Zhu Xiu didn't leave; he sat by the bed, his deep gaze like the finest carving knife, tracing her peaceful sleeping face again and again.

From her smooth forehead to her long eyelashes, her pert nose, and her slightly parted, glistening lips.

He just watched quietly, as if he could never get enough of looking at it.

The longer he lived with this female, the deeper he found himself falling.

Things that were once unacceptable and dismissed now seem to be tolerable, even...something to be enjoyed.

As long as I can see her sleeping peacefully like this, see the smile on her face, and be able to ensure her safety and happiness, everything else seems to become less important.

He leaned down and, very gently, as if handling the most precious treasure in the world, placed a kiss on her forehead that contained no lust, only tenderness.

"Go to sleep." His deep voice echoed in the quiet room, carrying an endless sense of protection.

Outside the window, the night is still long, the wind and rain have not stopped, and danger lurks in the shadows. But at least for this moment, this small space is filled with peace and warmth.

Zhu Xiu stood guard here, like the most loyal guardian beast, protecting his entire world.

Only when there was a noise outside did Zhu Xiu get up and walk to the window to look down.

The guard team, led by the red-ranking male, was patrolling outside when the chieftain passed by them not far away. They seemed to exchange a few words before the chieftain started walking towards home.

He slowly turned around, walked to the bedside and tucked the blanket around Bai Wanwan, before gently turning away.

After leaving the room, the tenderness on his face was replaced by a cold solemnity. He gently closed the door and walked down to the council chamber.

Heavy footsteps accompanied the patter of rain as the curtain was lifted, and the chieftain, damp and weary, strode in.

He had just settled the beastmen of the elephant tribe and hadn't even had a chance to catch his breath when he saw all the males in the house gathered in the living room, some sitting and some standing.

Jin Yi, Yin Ze, Yan Lie, Hua Han, Xin Feng, and Zhu Xiu are all here!

The orange-red flames danced in the fireplace, illuminating the solemn faces, creating an atmosphere that was clearly unusual.

"Why are they all here?" Chief Rong asked, somewhat surprised, as he took off his wet animal skin.

He originally planned to convene everyone again tomorrow to discuss the matter.

Zhu Xiu crossed his arms and leaned against a wooden pillar supporting the roof. He spoke in a deep voice, concisely: "Yin Ze has told us everything that happened to you this time."

His gaze was sharp as an eagle's, and extremely solemn.

Xin Feng sat on a low stool near the fire pit, his brows furrowed, his handsome face full of worry: "Chieftain, that fake Beast God... is he really that powerful?"

The chieftain walked to the fire pit, warmed his cold hands with the fire, and nodded heavily, confirming the bad news.

"Yes, the situation is more complicated than we expected. I was planning to discuss this with you all anyway, and since no one is asleep yet, let's take this opportunity to discuss a solution."

Jin Yi sat on a sofa covered with thick animal hides, his back straight, his golden pupils gleaming with a cold light in the firelight, like a ferocious beast poised to pounce.

"Now that the Tiger Clan has merged with the original Tiger Clan and Elephant Clan, its strength has greatly increased. It can be considered a union of two super tribes. In addition to several large tribes, we have enough high-level talented males. My idea is to reorganize these combat forces, divide them into multiple squads, and have them patrol the outskirts and important areas of the tribe day and night to build a defensive network for the entire tribe."

Yin Ze picked up the thread, adding a more specific screening mechanism: "Protection alone might not be enough. If the other party can truly change form perfectly, he has likely already infiltrated the tribe. We can arrange several more highly mobile elite squads composed of absolutely trustworthy core members, specifically responsible for secretly monitoring the tribe. Once any suspicious males with abnormal behavior or whose whereabouts cannot be confirmed at certain specific times are discovered, these squads will conduct focused monitoring and probing."

At this moment, Hua Han took a step forward, his beautiful fox-like eyes gleaming with wisdom in the firelight.

He knew that his race's talents could play a unique role at this time.

"We foxes are naturally more sensitive than other races; we can detect even the slightest differences."

"Moreover, our fox clan is skilled at creating illusions and confusing our opponents. I suggest that we secretly deploy some reliable male foxes near our home and around the cub enclosure, and have them keep an eye on any suspicious individuals appearing in that area."
