Chapter 497 You Want to Beat Me? Not So Easy

Nothing else happened in the tribe in the following days.

Qiao Xixi also took advantage of these few days to plant some suitable seeds in the vegetable garden.

Qiao Xixi got up very early that morning. The children opened their eyes when they heard her getting up, but Qiao Xixi didn't move, so they stayed in bed too.

Qiao Xixi looked into those big eyes and her heart softened, until the tiger cub got up and sat on her face, and all the tender moments of the morning came to a complete end.

After getting up and having breakfast, Xiya and the others obediently helped clean up the dishes.

"Mother, shall we go to the woods to pick fruit today?"

"Yes, there's a grove of trees on the back hill with lots of fruit. Let's go pick some today."

"Okay, I want to go with the female mother!" Qiao Qiao cheered happily.

A hint of disappointment flashed in Qiao Ang and Qiao Lie's eyes; they were going hunting in the forest with Falcon and couldn't go with Qiao Xixi today.

After Falcon Owl led Qiao Lie and Qiao Ang out, Fei Yan also came over carrying several bamboo baskets.

These bamboo baskets were taught to them by Qiao Xixi, and now many beastmen in the tribe are using them, making them very convenient for gathering.

"Everything is ready, you can go now."

Qiao Xixi held the tiger cub, following Xiya and Qiao Qiao on either side.

They had barely reached the outer edge of the inner city when they found a number of females already waiting there.

"Clan leader."

When everyone saw Qiao Xixi come out, they all bowed respectfully.

"Sorry to keep you all waiting. Let's set off while it's still early."

"it is good."

Josie and her group, along with many females, prepared to leave the tribe in a large procession.

While passing by a stone house in the tribe, Huang Ying, who was sitting inside, heard a noise outside. She quickly jumped off the bed and went outside to find out what was going on.

With just one glance, she saw Qiao Xixi, beaming with joy, leading a group of females as they walked past on the path ahead.

Huang Ying frowned, and just as she was about to walk out the door, she bumped into Yuan Ling who was walking towards her.

"Hey!"

Huang Ying lost her balance and was almost knocked to the ground, but fortunately Yuan Ling caught her quickly.

"Yuanyuan, why didn't you call for your mother when you got up? Are you hungry? Your mother will go get you some food right away."

Huang Ying stopped Yuan Ling, who was about to leave, and pointed in the direction Qiao and the others had gone. "Mother, what are they going to do?"

Yuanling picked her up. "They're going to the forest to pick fruit with the clan chief. Yuanyuan, do you want to go?"

Huang Ying nodded immediately. Mountains and forests, desolate wilderness—these were all places where she could make her move.

Now that her status is so different from Qiao Xixi's, she usually has no chance to get in touch with her. Now that she finally has a chance, she doesn't want to miss it.

"Go, take me there."

"Alright, Mother will go get the things and take you with her."

Soon, Yuanling caught up with the rest of the group as Qiao Xixi and the others left the tribe.

Qiao Xixi and Fei Yan walked at the front. The forest she mentioned was not far from the tribe; it only took about ten minutes to walk there.

To be honest, the climate here in the tribe is really good. Although it is still the cold season, the mountains and forests are lush and green, unlike before when we were in the ice field, where everything was covered in snow.

"Don't go too far, everyone, and be careful."

After Qiao Xixi finished speaking, everyone dispersed to their friends in twos and threes.

Qiao Xixi put the tiger cubs into one of the bamboo baskets and had Fei Yan carry them on her back.

"Feiyan, go and check around for any signs of wild beasts. Qiaoqiao and I are in this area. Come find us in a bit."

Fei Yan was a little worried. "I'll stay with you." Qiao Xixi nudged him. "It's okay. We won't wander off. Besides, I can protect myself. You go ahead."

Despite Qiao Xixi's repeated insistence, Fei Yan had no choice but to leave with the tiger cub on her back.

Qiao Qiao glanced at Fei Yan's retreating figure and shook her head.

Xiya looked on in confusion, "Qiaoqiao, why are you shaking your head?"

Qiao Qiao sighed, "My father is stupid."

Xiya stared wide-eyed in surprise. Although the Crimson Flame Father Beast didn't seem very smart, it didn't seem to have done anything wrong just now.

Qiao Qiao glanced at Qiao Xixi walking ahead and muttered softly, "Sister Xiya, the female beast was deliberately trying to distract the male beast just now."

Xiya had no idea at all; Qiaoqiao is so smart!

"Why?"

Qiao Qiao shook her head. "I don't know."

"Qiaoqiao, Xiya, what are you talking about?"

Josh turned around and waved to the two of them.

Qiao Qiao quickly grabbed Xi Ya and followed with a smile.

“Mother, I was talking to Sister Xiya about where there are more fruits.”

When Qiao Xixi looked up, she saw that the tree was full of orange fruits.

She pointed above her head, "Look, it's up there, we'll pick it from here."

As she was speaking, Qiao Xixi caught a glimpse of a figure walking towards them out of the corner of her eye.

She subtly instructed Qiao Qiao to pick the branches from the thicker parts, while Xi Ya waited below to gather them.

"You pick them here first, and the females can go over there to take a look."

"it is good."

As Qiao Xixi walked forward, she caught a glimpse of that figure following her.

She deliberately walked up a relatively steep slope.

"There's actually a fruit tree here."

Qiao Xixi looked at the fruit trees growing on the slope with surprise and delight, leaned forward, and reached out to pick the fruit.

But her arms weren't long enough, and she couldn't reach it several times. She could only move her body outward little by little until her body was almost hanging in the air between the earthen slope and the fruit tree.

If she had gone any further, she might have rolled down the slope.

Qiao Xixi cautiously reached out her hand, and just as she was about to reach the fruit tree, a figure suddenly darted out and crashed hard into her swaying body.

"what!"

Qiao Xixi cried out in alarm as she lost her balance and plummeted downwards.

Huang Ying staggered to her feet, her eyes filled with malice as she stared in the direction Qiao Xixi had fallen, a smug smirk on her face.

She walked to the edge of the earthen slope and looked down. The ground below was overgrown with weeds, and she couldn't see anything. But she was certain that if Qiao Xixi fell from here, even if she didn't die, she would be in serious trouble!

Huang Ying felt extremely pleased. "Qiao Xixi, you think you can beat me? Not so easy!"

Huang Ying didn't linger and quickly turned around and walked back.

However, she did not return to Yuanling's side, but instead returned to Xiya and Qiaoqiao.

Qiao Qiao was picking fruit with great enthusiasm when she turned around and saw the skinny Huang Ying walking over.

Because of what happened a few days ago, Qiao Qiao didn't have a good impression of her and always felt that this cub was a bit strange.

Thinking this, Qiao Qiao jumped down from the tree and followed Xi Ya to put all the fallen fruit into the bamboo basket.

Huang Ying was a little annoyed that Qiao Qiao ignored her, but she didn't show it. Instead, she slowly came up behind the two of them.
