Chapter 386 Don't go, leave immediately.
The rain stopped just before dawn.

Qiao Xixi leaned against Jin Lin and fell into a deep sleep. When she woke up, she was being held by Xi Jing and lying in the middle of a wide tree branch.

Hearing the noise, Xi Jing looked down at her.

"Xixi, you're awake."

Qiao Xixi hummed in agreement and sat up from Xi Jing's lap.

"Where are we?"

Xi Jing took out a leaf-shaped pouch from her bosom, opened it, and handed the water bag to her.

"We've arrived outside Beast King City."

Qiao Xixi was a little surprised. So fast?
Seeing the doubt in her eyes, Xi Jing explained, "After setting off last night, Kunlin and the others sped up, and it wasn't long before they found this place to stop and rest."

"Actually, I wasn't quite right. This place is indeed outside Beast King City, but we probably won't be able to get there until tomorrow."

Qiao Xixi nodded, glanced at the setting sun, and guessed that Falcon and the others planned to spend the night here before continuing their journey.

Qiao Xixi ate the roasted meat that still carried Xi Jing's body heat, and then ate two fruits before she was full.

She discovered that apart from Xi Jing staying by her side, she hadn't seen Sang Ze or the others.

"Strange, where are the others? Where did they all go?"

She looked around. She could actually sense their presence, but she couldn't see them at all.

"Xixi, we're all here, don't worry." As soon as she finished speaking, Jin Lin walked out of the woods behind her.

Qiao Xixi was a little surprised. Why were they hiding so secretly?
Xi Jing explained, "We discovered that there are many wild animals in this forest, so for safety's sake, we decided to conceal our presence."

They wanted to conserve their energy, since they didn't know what they would encounter after arriving in Beast King City, and they didn't want to waste time and energy fighting wild beasts.

Qiao Xixi thought they made sense, and just told them to be careful while she stayed in the tree branch with Xi Jing.

"Want to eat again?"

Xi Jing then took out another leaf bag.

Qiao Xixi was already full after eating one serving, so she shook her head. "Have you eaten?"

"Well, I've already eaten."

Qiao Xixi didn't believe it. Didn't they say they had only been here for a short time? Even if they went hunting, it wouldn't be that fast.

Just as she was about to speak, she heard the roar of a wild beast coming from not far away.

"Moo!"

Even sitting in the tree, Qiao Xixi could feel a violent tremor. With such a commotion, it was likely that a herd of bison was heading this way.

Xi Jing immediately hugged Qiao Xixi tightly.

Kunlin suddenly descended from the sky and landed on the tree where Qiao Xixi and the others were.

“It’s a herd of bison coming this way, Xixi, come on me quickly.”

Xi Jing jumped onto Kun Lin while holding Qiao Xixi.

Qiao Xixi saw that Jin Lin and the others had also gone to the other winged males.

Just as they left the tree and flew into the air, Qiao Xixi spotted a thin figure running towards them.

The thin figure ran very fast, but it was still far behind the herd of bison behind him.

He quickly jumped onto a large tree, but the herd of bison that followed charged at the tree like madmen.

Qiao Xixi was horrified. If this continued, that thin figure would surely die under the feet of the bison herd.

Just as Qiao Xixi was alarmed, the large tree where he was hiding suddenly collapsed, throwing him hard to the ground. But he quickly staggered to his feet and continued running. Qiao Xixi was moved by his stubbornness, his determination to not give up until the very last moment.

As Josie chanted the incantation, a gust of wind suddenly blew towards the bison herd.

The bison herd, which had been charging recklessly forward, had to slow down.

Xi Jing quickly saw through Qiao Xixi's intention. After Kunlin lowered the height a bit, he jumped down and grabbed the small, thin figure on the ground.

Seeing this, Jin Lin also ordered the winged male beneath him to lower its altitude, "Xi Jing, throw it to me."

Upon hearing this, Xi Jing flung the small, thin figure in front of Jin Lin, who caught him easily.

"Xi Jing, come up quickly."

Seeing that the bison was about to continue running forward, Qiao Xixi called out anxiously.

Xi Jing turned and jumped, but Qiao Xixi quickly grabbed his hand and pulled him back onto Kunlin.

The moment Xi Jing arrived, the wind stopped, and the bison continued their frenzied charge forward.

Where the bison passed, almost all vegetation and any animals that didn't have time to escape were trampled flat.

Let's find a new place to stay.

Kunlin nodded and finally landed by a stream with a relatively open view.

As soon as they landed, Xi Jing jumped off Kun Lin with Qiao Xixi in her arms.

Jin Lin also grabbed that small, thin figure and jumped to the ground.

The moment her feet touched the ground, the figure couldn't wait to break free from Jin Lin's grasp.

"Thank you for saving me just now."

Only when she got closer could Qiao Xixi see his appearance clearly.

His animal skin clothing was covered in grime, his hair was messy and looked like it hadn't been washed in a long time, and his body was covered in filth. In short, he was filthy.

"Have you gotten separated from your people? How did you end up alone in this forest?"

Qiao Xixi asked this because he didn't seem like a stray beast, since he had all four limbs intact and didn't have the scent of the banished flower.

"No, I was hunting just now and I didn't expect to encounter a herd of bison."

"Where do you live? Where do you live? Why are you hunting alone?"

He pursed his lips, his expression somewhat cold, and said, "I live in Beast King City. If I don't hunt, I will starve to death. No one will give me food."

Qiao Xixi was very surprised. She thought that the beastmen in Beast King City were all well-off and had no worries about food and drink. How could there be such a miserable situation? Even in a small tribe, these half-grown cubs would have meat to eat.

Of course, Qiao Xixi was unaware of his actual situation and did not ask any further questions.

"So you didn't catch any prey today, are you going to go hungry?"

He looked at Qiao Xixi and nodded. "Yes, but I'm used to it. You are the tribal orcs going to Beast King City to participate in the sacrifice?"

Qiao Xixi didn't expect him to guess. There was no point in hiding it, since this sacrificial ceremony was attended by people from all the major tribes.

"Yes, this is our first time in Beast King City. Could you tell me about the city?"

To everyone's surprise, as soon as Qiao Xixi finished speaking, he said with a stern face, "Don't go! Turn around and leave here immediately, and never set foot in Beast King City again!"

Qiao Xixi was a little surprised, "Why?"

He pursed his lips, looked away, and said in a voice that was cold and deep for his age, “It’s not as good as you think, nor as simple as you think. Going there will be dangerous, so leave as soon as possible.”

"Can you tell me what kind of danger it is?"
