Chapter 185 Forcing Su An'an to Marry a Beast Husband

Jinzhu's gaze lingered on Qiuqiu's jet-black scales for a moment before sweeping over Seville's displeased little face.

In the end, she simply hummed in agreement, hoisted Lu Ming onto her shoulder, and strode forward.

"and many more!"

Su An'an crouched down to hug Seville, but he dodged her.

"Do not touch me."

The swan-like beastman in its cub form had a cold expression, its wings slightly flapping.

Su An'an lowered her voice: "Pretend to be weak, it will be more advantageous."

Seville fell silent, his amber eyes flashing with complex emotions.

In the end, he turned his face away and tacitly allowed Su An'an to pick him up.

Su An'an followed Jin Zhu and left the forest.

After walking for about half an hour, the outline of the Graystone Tribe gradually became clear.

The towering wooden fence was covered with dried bloodstains, and the guards on the watchtower raised their spears as they saw the gold beads.

But upon noticing the stranger behind her, they immediately sounded the alarm.

"Stay where you are!"

A hoarse, explosive shout rang out, and a wolf guard with claw marks all over his face emerged from behind the wooden fence.

His mutilated left ear twitched, and his single eye stared intently at Jinzhu:

"You know the rules, outsiders are not allowed in!"

Jinzhu silently put Luming down and took out the piece of snow-white toad meat from the leather pouch at her waist.

The only pure piece of meat in the putrid swamp gleamed with a pearly luster under the moonlight:

"She saved Lu Ming."

The guard's wolf nose wrinkled, revealing his fangs: "We await the chief's decision."

As it turned, its tail lashed hard against the fence, shaking off several pieces of dried blood.

Taking advantage of the break, Su An'an lowered her voice and asked:

"What's your clan leader's name? What's his personality like?"

"Call him Grey Gang!"

Lu Ming peeked out from behind Jin Zhu, his clear, gentle voice lowered to a whisper:

"Very strict, not easy to talk to, but fairly fair!"

Before long, heavy footsteps suddenly approached.

The wooden fence suddenly opened.

The old wolf, wearing a necklace of gleaming white beast teeth, stepped out of the shadows, followed by dozens of orc warriors.

These warriors were covered in fur that had not completely fallen off, their claws still retained the sharp curves of their hunting instincts, and their waists were barely covered by bone plates strung together with animal sinews.

"Jinzhu, what do you mean by bringing these outsiders back?"

The old wolf's eyes narrowed slightly, its gaze sweeping over Su An'an and her group like a knife.

Jinzhu took a half step forward, her muscles taut beneath her tree-bark armor:
"Tribal rules."

She ripped open Lu Ming's trouser leg, revealing his already healed wound:
"Females and cubs who have saved our own orcs may stay."

"This female is called An'an. She was framed and fell here from outside. She has healing abilities."

Lu Ming quickly added:
“This winged cub is her brother, and she also adopted a lizard cub.”

"An outsider female!"

The old wolf's nostrils flared violently as it scanned Su An'an and Seville several times before saying:
“They can stay, but…”

He pointed his wolf claws at the group of disheveled warriors behind him:

"The Graystone Tribe doesn't keep idle animals. Let's see who's willing to keep this female."

Laughter erupted from the crowd of onlookers.

"Look at those skinny arms and legs!"

The boar-tusked warrior spat, "I'm afraid it won't even be able to hatch an egg."

"Look at that slender waist."

The orc with the lizard tail flicked his tongue: "I'm afraid even giving birth will be difficult."

The most disgusting thing was that hunchbacked bear orc.

His bloated body reeked of rotting flesh, and murky saliva dripped from his fangs. When he squeezed to the front of the crowd, the ground trembled.

"Let's go to the female's cave!" He grinned, revealing a gaping maw with undigested frog legs hanging between his yellowish-brown teeth.

"I'll give you three fluorescent frogs in exchange for her first night."

Su An'an's eyes suddenly turned cold, and silvery arcs of electricity quietly appeared on her fingertips.

Seville's small hands suddenly gripped the hem of her clothes, and her six wings unfolded completely in a flash.

In those amber eyes, a savage killing intent, not belonging to a cub, surged like a tidal wave.

"boom!"

A strong, dark figure flashed by, and Jinzhu's bone dagger was already pressed against the bear-beastman's throat.

The veins on her thick arms bulged, but her voice was as cold as ice:
“Say one more word and I’ll tear down your shack.”

The bear-orc stood frozen in place, large beads of sweat rolling down his forehead.

Old Wolf Gray casually swung his scarred claws:
“Since Jinzhu picked it up, it’s under her jurisdiction.”

A mocking glint flashed in his eyes: "Perfect, you can lead them through the acid rain season yourself."

"Ha! It seems freaks can afford to support good-for-nothings!"

The warriors with wild boar tusks started jeering in a sarcastic tone.

This drew a burst of malicious laughter from those around him.

Jin Zhu didn't even lift her eyelids; the click of her dagger being sheathed was crisp and jarring.

Her back was as straight as a pine tree as she turned and walked towards the shack, as if the ridicule was just a passing breeze.

"Come on!"

Lu Ming tugged at Su An'an's sleeve, his clear voice filled with anxiety.

He hopped on one leg to catch up with Jinzhu, his slender figure casting a long shadow in the setting sun.

As Su An'an carried Seville away, a muffled curse drifted from behind:
"What are you pretending to be so high and mighty for? Having a useless male beast with you isn't enough, you also have to pick up outside females."

"When the acid rain season comes,"

Another voice added in a sinister tone, "Watch them beg for food on their knees."

Jinzhu's hut was built of thick black stones, with the crevices filled with the mud unique to swamps.

The roof is covered with layers of fluorescent vines, a plant that can withstand acid rain.

When the heavy animal-hide curtain fell, the cold, rusty wind it brought was firmly blocked by the stone wall.

The shack was more rudimentary than I had imagined.

A few crooked ironwood logs supported the blackened animal hide roof.

In the corner, there was a pile of dried fluorescent vines, which emitted a faint fragrance of grass and wood.

Jinzhu gently placed Luming on a grass mat covered with fresh moss, then turned and picked up the bone spear to walk outside.

"Wait!" Su An'an hurriedly stepped forward:

"Thank you for standing up for us earlier, and thank you for taking us in."

Jinzhu paused for a moment.

As her muscular arms lifted the curtain, the setting sun cast a blood-red hue onto her bark armor.
“Keep an eye on the cubs.”

Her voice sounded like it had been sanded, and as the heavy animal skin curtain fell, it brought with it a cold wind that smelled of rust.

After confirming that Jin Zhu's footsteps had completely disappeared, Su An'an immediately squatted down next to Lu Ming:

Do you know how to leave?

"I don't know." Lu Ming shook his head. "Maybe the Divine Army will..."

He suddenly covered his mouth halfway through his sentence, looking terrified as if he had let something slip.

"What is the Divine Army?" Su An'an immediately asked.

"Shh!"

Deer cried out in alarm, waving his hands and his ears twitching wildly: "We can't let other animals hear us."

His pale lips trembled: "The orcs who were discussing the Divine Army last time were found soaking in the Acid Rain Pool the very next day."

Su An'an nodded in understanding, then pointed to the vines on the roof: "What about during the acid rain season?"

Lu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, his fingers unconsciously tugging at the straw mat: "Once every six months, for fifteen days each time."

He showed the faded burn scars on his arm: "When acid rain falls, even the stones will smoke, and the prey will all hide in burrows."

"That's why Jinzhu is desperately hoarding food, otherwise we'll starve to death, she..."

Before Lu Ming could finish speaking, a snapping sound of dry branches came from outside the hut.
