Chapter 223 The fisherman’s advantage
Xiao Ye and Mo Xuan rushed over and immediately attacked the sky, but the person was flying too fast and was not injured.

The two wanted to chase after them, but Luan Ting stopped them, saying, "Don't get entangled in the fight, check on Luo Luo first."

Upon hearing this, the two stopped.

Nan Tu looked at Su Luoluo with a worried expression, "Su Luoluo, how are you? Are you alright?"

Su Luoluo shook her head. "I'm fine. Xi Yi was injured while saving me."

Upon hearing this, Luan Ting looked her up and down, and after confirming that she was really alright, he transformed into a gray wolf and stopped in front of Su Luoluo: "This place is not safe to stay for long. Put Xi Yi on my back and let's leave first."

Su Luoluo nodded upon hearing this and reached out to help Xi Yi up, but Fu Feng took her instead, saying, "You're pregnant, let me help you."

Seeing that Fu Feng was moving, Mo Xuan quickly lent a hand as well.

Bai Meng transformed into a tiger and stopped in front of Su Luoluo: "Luoluo, get on, I'll give you a ride."

Fu Feng and Mo Xuan helped Xi Yi up, secretly despising Bai Meng's "bargain hunting" behavior, but considering that he meant well, they didn't say anything.

Nantu stood to the side and looked at Luan Ting, asking, "Where are we going now? Back to the tribe?"

Luan Ting shook his head, his expression somewhat serious, and said, "If we go back to the tribe now, Yanjing Cave might be taken over by the Fire Jackal tribe."

Mo Xuan nodded: "Although they just severely damaged Feng Huo, given the nature of the Fire Jackals, they probably won't let it go so easily."

"Shall we go back to Yanjing Cave now?" Xiao Ye asked.

Luan Ting thought for a moment and said, "Mo Xuan, Nan Tu, Fu Feng, you guys go back first and tell the chief what happened at Yanjing Cave, so that the chief can be on high alert. I'm afraid that Feng Huo and the others might go to the tribe to cause trouble."

"The rest of you go to Yanjing Cave to keep watch and find out what happened before we talk about it."

"In just two days, quite a few people have come to Yanjingdong. I wonder if Yanjingdong has been exposed. If so, we need to be even more careful."

The three nodded in agreement: "Okay."

"If necessary, bring all the tribe members over; leave the ring-tailed lemurs for now," Su Luoluo added.

Upon hearing this, Mo Xuan, Fu Feng, and Nan Tu had no objections and set off for the tribe.

Luan Ting carried Xi Yi in front, Bai Meng followed closely behind with Su Luoluo on his back, and Xiao Ye was at the very back of the group, keeping an eye on things.

Su Luoluo sat on Bai Meng's back, her mind filled with countless thoughts.

Fortunately, Xi Yi was only injured and not killed, otherwise she really wouldn't know how to face him.

That bird-woman today looked pretty powerful; even with her level seven superpowers, she couldn't beat her, which shows how weak she is.

Previously, she was only focused on completing the missions, thinking that as long as she completed them, the system would reward her with all sorts of things, but now she realizes that she was being misled.

I've always relied on the system; I haven't practiced any in-depth cultivation on my own.

There are still some differences between superpowers in the post-apocalyptic world and the beast world. Her level seven water-based superpower would definitely be quite powerful in the post-apocalyptic world, but that might not be the case in the beast world.

They can switch between human and beast at will, something she can't do. It seems she needs to find a way to increase her strength.

And this lousy system, why has it been constantly offline lately? Su Luoluo had a bad feeling that something might have happened to it.

As for the people who came to Yanjing Cave, it seems that there were three groups of people yesterday and today. Apart from the Fire Jackal Beast, which she knows a little about, she has no idea who the other two groups are. She must find out as soon as possible.

The group soon arrived at the Salt Well Cave.

I left in a hurry today, heading to investigate the killing of the wolf clan, and didn't bring any animal skins. Since Xi Yi was injured, Su Luoluo could only lie flat on the ground, letting Xi Yi rest his head on her lap.

Xiao Ye felt a little jealous. He had never even lain on Su Luoluo's lap before, so why was this black bear the first to do so?

He pursed his lips and said, "Luo Luo, you're still pregnant, it must be tiring for you to carry Xi Yi like this, why don't I take over!"

Su Luoluo shook her head and refused, "No need, you focus on guarding the salt cave, I can handle this little thing."

She was the weakest among them, so naturally she was the one to do these small tasks, while Xiao Ye was more efficient at doing other things.

Hearing this, Xiao Ye had nothing to say and could only agree.

Bai Meng also wanted to speak, but seeing Xiao Ye's rebuff, he stopped.

Thinking of that bird, Xiao Ye looked at Su Luoluo and asked, "Did you get a good look at that bird?"

Su Luolu recalled its appearance and said, "It was completely red, with flames on its wings, forked tail feathers pulling on its long tail, and golden claws."

"A red bird with golden claws? Apart from pheasants, I've lived here for so long and I've never seen such a brightly colored bird." Xiao Ye frowned.

“Perhaps it wasn’t a tribe nearby. When she took Lolo away, she didn’t even glance at the salt cave,” Luan Ting said after a moment’s thought. “Besides that, did she say anything else?”

"She seemed to resent me a lot, and even said something like 'Brother Feng is not worthy of me.'"

"Wind? Could it be related to Fufeng?" Bai Meng exclaimed in surprise.

"Maybe it's targeting you. Fufeng is a bird, and this female bird that rushed out is also a bird. Let's ask her when we come over tomorrow," Luan Ting said thoughtfully.

Su Luoluo nodded and looked at the ashes on the ground, saying, "The one who killed the people who stayed behind might have been brought by Su Nuannuan."

"Su Nuannuan?" Hearing this name, Luan Ting was somewhat surprised. "You saw her?"

Su Luoluo shook her head. "No, I just saw traces of salt purification in this salt cave, and I saw gray wood ash on the ground next to it. She saw it when I demonstrated the salt purification technique in the tribe before, and it's very possible that she found this salt cave."

"Although her father never told her the exact location, she at least knew that Salt Well Cave existed."

“That makes sense. She really can’t be ignored. If that’s the case, her heart is becoming more and more vicious,” Bai Meng agreed.

"Moreover, I have a bold guess: the location of the Salt Well Cave may very well have been told to Hua Chai by Su Nuannuan."

Xiao Ye's eyes turned cold upon hearing this. "Are you saying she wants to reap the benefits without lifting a finger?"

"Let us fight the Flower Jackal tribe until they are exhausted, then they can seize it. It's a good plan, but unfortunately she used it wrong," Bai Meng said with a cold look in his eyes.

“When Beast Father was alive, we also dealt with the Flower Jackals. They are not the kind of people who give up easily. This salt well is so good, it might attract more accomplices to try and steal it.”

“If that’s the case, then it’s terrible,” Luan Ting said, frowning.

"Not necessarily. It's also possible that the spotted jackal wants to keep it all to itself without telling the other tribes."

"The jackals might not tell, but Su Nuannuan, who is hiding behind them, might not."

"It's not impossible that she might try the same trick again."

Su Luoluo said with a deep look in her eyes.
