Chapter 520 He came
Qiao Xixi's blue eyes flickered. "I don't know either. Is the beast you're trying to catch a merman?"
“That’s right.” After saying that, the beastman ignored Qiao Xixi and turned to his companions behind him, saying, “Go over there and take a look.”
"Yes."
After watching them leave, Qiao Xixi didn't go any further.
Merfolk are sea creatures, and they will never leave the sea unless the sea can no longer provide them with a place to live.
Cases like tide Jing's are extremely rare. Qiao Xixi guessed that the orcs those beast soldiers wanted to capture were likely tide Jing.
However, judging from tide Jing's location, she is currently outside the city, so she doesn't need to worry about the beast soldiers in the city capturing her.
Before dark, Qiao Xixi returned to the stone house, closed the flimsy wooden door from the inside, and then used a stick to prop it up behind the door.
Once she was sure the wooden door was locked shut, she took out a fur blanket from her spatial storage, spread it on the bed, and lay down.
Qiao Xixi closed her eyes, but her mind was still racing. If Jin Lin and the others were still located outside Beast City tomorrow, she planned to go out and look for them.
When drowsiness came over me, it was already late at night.
Just as Qiao Xixi was about to fall asleep, she felt a strong pressure surging in the air, instantly dispelling all her drowsiness.
She suddenly opened her eyes and saw a dark shadow slowly flash past the window.
The windows of the stone houses here are set quite high, even higher than the doors, so she couldn't see the shadowy figure through the windows.
Qiao Xixi sat up from the bed without making a sound, gripping the bone knife in her hand tightly.
She walked to the door, peeked through the small crack, and her heart skipped a beat.
A black figure stood not far from her stone house, but his gaze was not on her stone house; instead, he was observing the aura of the stone house opposite.
When Qiao Xixi went out today, she saw that the person living opposite her was a young female wolf who was similar in age and build to her.
Perhaps it was because the aura emanating from her was somewhat similar to hers that Kunlin came to investigate.
Qiao Xixi clenched her fists. She had expected Kunlin to come looking for her, but she hadn't expected him to arrive so quickly!
Kunlin circled the stone house opposite several times, seemingly trying to confirm whether the other party's aura was indeed Qiao Xixi.
Qiao Xixi saw that he suddenly stopped, which meant he must have realized that the person inside wasn't her. Just when she thought Kunlin would leave, he suddenly turned and looked towards the wooden house where she was.
Qiao Xixi's heart jumped.
In the darkness, she saw the Kunlin slowly walking towards her stone house.
Although she had made various preparations to conceal her presence, she couldn't guarantee that everything would go perfectly.
Just as Kunlin was about to reach the stone house, a figure arrived at the door ahead of him.
As Kunlin saw someone approaching, its figure quickly disappeared into the darkness.
"Female, I am the beastman who brought you into the city today. My name is Wolf Chaser. I brought you some food. Can you open the door?"
Normally, Qiao Xixi would never have opened this door, but this time she opened it without hesitation, and stood behind the door, lowering her voice to let Lang Zhui into the house.
As soon as he came in, Qiao Xixi closed the door.
Wolf Chase was surprised that Qiao Xixi would speak so readily, and a look of joy immediately spread across his face.
“You look a bit thin today, and I was worried you didn’t have enough food. This is the meat I was given, and I’ve saved some for you.”
Wolf Chase shyly placed a piece of meat wrapped in leaves on the table.
Qiao Xixi glanced at him and nodded gratefully, but her senses remained focused on the sounds outside the door.
Soon, she heard soft footsteps, and a dark figure flashed through the crack in the door. The invisible pressure in the air vanished. Qiao Xixi's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly.
Kunlin is gone.
"What's your name?"
Qiao Xixi almost bumped into Lang Zhu when she turned around.
She looked up at him, and he appeared behind her without her noticing; the two were very close.
Qiao Xixi quickly took a step back, picked up the leaf bag from the table, and put it back in his hand.
"Thank you for your kindness, but I'm already full. If you didn't come to see me for anything else, you should go back now. I need to rest."
Wolf was somewhat unwilling to leave like that. "Female, I like you very much. Can I become your mate? I will definitely protect you."
Qiao Xixi refused again decisively, explaining that she had just been separated from her cubs and had lost many of her people, which made her feel terrible, and she did not want to form a bond with any male at the moment.
Seeing her heartbroken state, Lang Zhu didn't want to pressure her. "Keep these pieces of meat for yourself. I... I'll come see you another day. Don't be too sad."
Qiao Xixi nodded absentmindedly, and after Lang Zhu left, she closed the door again.
This night is destined to be uneventful.
On the back mountain of Tiger Beast City, in the dim forest, Jin Lin and Xi Jing stood side by side in the shadows, their eyes fixed on a stone mountain not far in front of them.
A few days ago, they received a strand of hair from Qiao Xixi, sent by the Phoenix Wing Clan, asking you to find Sang Gu.
Initially, they followed the hair and searched the city, only to find that the places they were looking for were all places where Sanggu had stayed before.
Finally, the strand of hair led them here, and it remained on the stone, circling around.
They spent three days searching the rocks for anything unusual, but no matter how hard they looked, they couldn't find anything.
They had no choice but to stay here and keep watch for the time being. If there really was a problem here, it was impossible for no one to show up.
They've been lying in wait until now, but they haven't seen any orcs approaching.
"I'll keep watch tonight, you go and get some rest."
After Jin Lin finished speaking, he climbed up the tall tree in front of him.
tide Jing glanced at Jin Lin, then found a secluded spot to rest.
Before going to sleep, tide Jing subconsciously opened the spatial location and immediately locked onto Qiao Xixi's location. This sight made him sit up from the tree.
tide Jing repeatedly checked the coordinates and was so surprised when she found that Qiao Xixi was in Tiger Beast City that she was speechless.
If Qiao Xixi's coordinates had appeared at the same time as Falcon and the others, he wouldn't have been so shocked.
But since she's appearing alone now, there's a real possibility of a problem.
tide Jing immediately jumped down from the tree and went to where Jin Lin was.
"Jin Lin, Xixi has arrived in Tiger Beast City."
Jin Lin was slightly taken aback. "Did Fei Yan and the others come with Xi Xi?"
"No, it was Xixi who appeared in Tiger Beast City on her own."
Upon hearing this, Jin Lin quickly checked the location and was shocked to find that Qiao Xixi was indeed in Tiger Beast City. However, he frowned with worry after a moment.
Just as he was about to speak, someone suddenly appeared on the rocky hill not far away.
