Chapter 127 An eye for an eye
As soon as Su Weihua ran out of the cave, she instantly transformed into a giant white wolf. With all four limbs on the ground, she leaped far away in the blink of an eye by pushing off with her hind legs.

Yu Shaochen stared blankly at the figure, which turned into a small black dot in the blink of an eye, and then disappeared completely from his sight in the next blink.

Even at that speed, Su Weihua still couldn't catch up with Yu Heng.

Running fast through the mountains and wilderness, he found that his physical fitness had not declined but improved. He no longer experienced breathing difficulties or heart palpitations during long periods of high-speed running.

When he approached the territory of the Snow Wolf Tribe, he had to stop and not go any closer.

He is no longer a member of this tribe. Once he enters the inner perimeter of the Snow Wolf territory, he will be quickly located by the guards and attacked directly.

Yu Heng's aura... was also very faint, almost blending into the vegetation in the forest. If the other party hadn't expended his special power to heal him, he wouldn't have been so certain that it was Yu Heng's aura.

Su Weihua hesitated for a moment, but quickly made up his mind to first break into the outer perimeter of the Snow Wolf Tribe's territory. As for whether to go into the inner perimeter... it would depend on the situation.

After entering the southern forest area of ​​the Snow Wolf Tribe, we hadn't gone far when we sensed chaos and commotion in the woods.

Upon closer inspection, he discovered that many of the Snow Wolf Tribe's guards were bound together with vines like rice dumplings and hung from tree branches.

All the orcs with superpowers were unconscious, while the conscious ones were all warriors without superpowers.

Su Weihua did not approach, but stared at the group of people who were being hung up, numbering more than thirty.

There are three guard squads.

In other words, Yuheng made no attempt to conceal himself and directly broke in from the outer perimeter. He may have even deliberately caused a commotion, allowing the three guard teams patrolling the southern forest area to surround and attack him. Before the guard teams in the inner perimeter could even be notified, he wiped out all of them.

The whole process probably only takes a few minutes.

Although Yuheng is a wood-type, his combat ability is beyond his imagination.

Su Weihua bypassed the group of people, and her anxiety eased slightly.

Yuheng did not kill indiscriminately. Although it was unclear how he distinguished whether orcs possessed superpowers, this method of handling the situation was much more reliable than he had initially anticipated.

He didn't hesitate when he entered the inner area.

The orcs in the inner perimeter were facing the same troubles as the guards.

Su Weihua traveled without any obstacles, and when he saw Su Kang, he was actually somewhat surprised.

Because Su Kang has changed so much.

The man, who was once strong and healthy, now has a sallow complexion, has lost a lot of weight, and has even lost his left arm. He looks more sinister and evil than before.

Unfortunately, the level twelve superpower built with heart stones was like paper in Yu Heng's hands, completely suppressed, and he had no ability to resist at all.

The moment Su Kang saw Su Weihua, his eyes widened in fury, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "You unfilial son, you dare to come back!"

Su Weihua withdrew her gaze, ignoring him, and looked up at Yuheng: "Did you get the answer?"

Yuheng shook his head: "Your mouth is still pretty tight."

Su Weihua glanced at the rows of fallen orcs and asked, "These people won't die, will they?"

“No.” Yu Heng chuckled upon hearing this. “I’m not interested in their lives. Killing is exhausting.”

Moreover, he already has many enemies, so killing an ordinary orc without any prior grudges wouldn't make him feel better.

"Is this what you were worried about, which is why you followed me here?"

Su Weihua remained silent, but his silence spoke volumes.

Yuheng looked at his indifferent and silent demeanor with great interest: "He is your father. I need to use some methods on him. You don't mind, do you?"

Su Weihua turned around and said directly, "I don't mind."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Su Kang cursed him viciously from beginning to end, but Su Weihua was already tired of it and would no longer be bothered by these harsh words.

Yu Heng watched his departing figure, and on his slightly raised right palm, a nimble vine swayed like a small snake. Looking at Su Kang's jealous and angry expression, he gloated, "I had only heard that you two had a bad relationship, but I didn't expect it to be this bad."

If Su Weihua were willing to plead for Su Kang, he would probably seriously consider whether to show leniency.

Unfortunately, no!

However, looking at Su Kang's appearance, he asked curiously, "I heard you are the leader of the Snow Wolf Tribe, but..."

He turned to look at the cave where Su Kang lived, raising an eyebrow slightly, and said, "But your miserable appearance doesn't quite seem like it..."

A level 12 metal-type mutant beastman is a very powerful existence in small and medium-sized tribes. Even though he lost his left arm, Su Kang has reattached a metal arm to the severed limb. Although it is not as flexible as the original, it can still ensure a normal life.

However, he lived on the lower or middle floor of this rocky building, and he looked rather gloomy, not at all like the evil, powerful, and spirited man Yu Shaochen had described.

Su Kang dared to use the most vile words to curse Su Weihua, but dared not utter a single insult to Yu Heng.

His face was ashen, and he was pinned to the ground like a dead dog, unable to move at all, and he had no desire to satisfy Yuheng's curiosity.

After Bea lost his spatial ability and his left arm, their status in the Snow Wolf Clan was greatly affected.

That space contained a batch of tribal supplies, as well as almost all of his and Bea's family property. In addition, they had been robbed by the Stone Forest before, and his left arm was cut off. He was unable to hunt for a while and needed time to recover. So even though he was the chieftain, his living conditions had plummeted.

Fortunately, it wasn't the cold season, otherwise the family of three might have lost their lives.

Taking away resources from other members of the tribe would cause their dissatisfaction and weaken his prestige within the tribe.

During this time, he was plotting how to take everything back.

However, the situation in the tribe was not good. Because they had a deep-seated hatred with the Stone Forest, the other side had come to provoke them time and time again, and even plundered their resources. Other voices were beginning to emerge in the tribe, and some people even wanted to replace the chieftain.

After all, it was he who went too far and made a deep grudge against Shilin.

If a new chieftain is appointed, and the entire family is handed over to him, and all the past misdeeds of the Snow Wolves are attributed to him, the new chieftain can lead the people to maintain a peaceful coexistence with the Stone Forest for the time being, at least preventing them from being robbed every few days.

However, Su Kang was determined not to allow this situation to occur.

Fortunately, no second level 12 superhuman warrior has appeared in the clan.

Otherwise... he might not be able to continue suppressing those clansmen with wavering minds.

Even so, he hated it to no end.

Su Weihua did not die.

He had arranged for someone to torture him to that extent and send him to the Stone Forest, but unexpectedly Ling Chengen was still willing to waste his efforts to save a cripple...

Thinking of all this, he regretted not eliminating the threat completely back then, leaving the boy a sliver of hope. This wicked son knew the snow wolf inside and out; he must have been the one devising the plan when those savage orcs raided the Stone Forest.

Yu Heng had no time to pay attention to his wandering thoughts. He played with the translucent mineral cone in his hand, squatted down, grabbed his hair with one hand, and forced him to raise his head.

"Do you know this?"

Su Kang's pupils contracted slightly when he saw the stone cone in his palm, but he quickly returned to normal.

"do not know."

Yu Heng's patience was running out: "In order to weaken Su Weihua's ability to resist, you sealed his heart meridian, preventing him from using his supernatural abilities. This was done by members of your tribe, there's no doubt about it. Even if you didn't do it yourself, I don't believe you had no idea where this thing came from."

"What, you think I haven't killed anyone and look kind and harmless, so you won't interrogate me?"

Yu Heng twirled the stone cone between his fingers, flipping him over with a playful look: "I remember you're also a metal elementalist. This stone cone, taken from Su Weihua's heart meridian, what if it were inserted into your heart meridian..."

"You probably can't use your powers anymore, right?"

“Not all witch doctors in this beast plain are like me, able to remove this stone cone and guarantee that the person can survive.”

Yu Heng merely flicked his fingertip, and the vines encircling Su Kang's neck began to tighten, gradually constricting him until his face turned purplish-red.

He gripped the stone awl and, without hesitation, raised his hand and slammed it down.

The instant the stone cone pierced his chest, Su Kang suddenly cried out in terror, "I'll talk, I'll talk—"

Yu Heng raised an eyebrow slightly and said with a smile, "I still admire people who know how to be pragmatic."

Looking at his faint smile, Su Kang felt no relief at surviving the ordeal, only endless panic and despair.

……

It was only after Yuheng had been gone from the Snow Wolf tribe for a long time that the once desolate tribe gradually began to stir again.

Once the superhuman warrior regained consciousness, he used his powers to break the vines binding him and free his tribesmen from their restraints, then quickly ran towards the core territory of the tribe.

The orcs who arrived at the center of the tribe first froze on the spot when they saw the blood on the ground. After regaining their senses, they screamed in terror.

Yu Heng sensed the commotion in the Snow Wolf territory, curled his lips into a smile, and continued walking forward leisurely, looking at Su Weihua who was leaning against a rock: "Let's go."

Su Weihua: "Is the person dead?"

"No." Yu Heng scratched the stone cone in his left hand and said with a wicked and arrogant tone, "I usually don't hurt people I don't have a grudge against, but unfortunately, I really dislike this thing."

"Therefore, I have returned the stone cone that I received from you."

"Without a level 13 witch doctor treating him, his powers cannot be restored."

Su Weihua didn't comment on his actions at all, but jumped down from the rock and walked alongside him toward the stone forest.

"There are no level 13 wood-type beastmen in the central region, but... there might be some in the south."

"But those people are not easy to deal with, especially the orcs with high-level superpowers, so it will be extremely difficult for him to return to his peak."

Yuheng glanced at him: "Doesn't it feel satisfying?"

Su Weihua remained silent for a moment, then shook her head and said, "I can't explain it."

If he still harbored even a sliver of hope for Su Kang as his father, he probably wouldn't have thought of taking over the Snow Wolf tribe.

Since his mother passed away, he had seen his father's hypocritical face too early. Coupled with everything he had done to Su Duo, he no longer had any illusions about this person and simply regarded him as a rival.

He originally planned to proceed gradually, but Su Kang couldn't tolerate him and wanted Su Liwen to replace him as the young clan leader.

Having lost his position as the young chieftain, he could no longer plot against the Snow Wolf tribe.

Therefore, he and Su Kang were natural enemies. Because he was not strong enough, he lost in the struggle for power in the Snow Wolf Tribe and was eventually tortured to the point of being seriously injured and on the verge of death, which was something he had been mentally prepared for.

If Snow Wolf hadn't been defeated in the war against Stone Forest, and if Ling Xiao hadn't proposed that he marry into Ling Chengen's family and become his beast husband, he might have been killed outright, with no chance of survival whatsoever.

In a way, Ling Xiao saved his life.

He did not hate the Stone Forest tribe, nor did he harbor any resentment towards Ling Xiao and Ling Chengen.

The rule of life on this beast plain has always been this: the strong prey on the weak.

The only rule for survival is to be the strong.

Yu Heng found his reaction rather uninteresting, put away the stone cone in his palm, and said listlessly, "No wonder that little female didn't pay much attention to you. Your dull personality is really not likable."

As Jiaojiao listened to his complaints, connected to his mental world, she couldn't help but tease him: "You talk as if you're so likable."

"You two are evenly matched!"

The smile on Yuheng's lips vanished instantly, and he sneered at Jiaojiao, "I'm not boring, I'm just not interested in females. If I really wanted to find a partner, no female could resist my seduction."

If she weren't blind, Jiao Jiao would roll her eyes at him: "I'm returning the words you gave me."

"Whether you're a person or a vine, you should have some self-awareness."

Yuheng's patience ran out, and he was no longer willing to be attacked by her sharp tongue: "Shut up, you're just a vine, don't meddle in other people's business."

Yuheng left Shilin on the second day. When the Ling family woke up from the dim light of dawn, he was nowhere to be found. Only the tall, broad-leaved tree standing by the Qingshi Creek remained, just as it had been a few days before, swaying gently in the morning breeze.

Su Weihua's full recovery astonished the group who returned home that night. However, Ling Chengen did not return; she was staying in the Hailing tribe for a while and was unaware of this good news.

Looking at Su Weihua's tall and upright figure, Ling Xiao patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "It's good that you've recovered. Was it that wood-type beastman who used to live in our house who treated you?"

Su Weihua nodded slightly, feeling the large, warm hand on her shoulder, and her expression softened a little.

"Yes."

"Then you can start helping out tomorrow. Do you want to come hunting with me, or do you want to work with Enen and Bai Qingyu?"

Ling Xiao did not force Su Weihua. The family was not short of prey, and if Bai Qingyu could solve the problem of harvesting tree wheat, the entire tribe would not lack food for a long time to come.

Although Su Weihua had been lying in the cave every day, she was not completely unaware of what was happening at home.

Ling Xiao is currently in charge of all the hunting duties for the family. Ling Chengen and the others only hunt some prey when they happen to be passing by or when they have free time.

But Ling Xiao is an elder, and it's not right to let him support this whole family by himself.

So Su Weihua didn't hesitate much: "I will join the hunting team and bring Yu Shaochen with me."
