Chapter 204 Misunderstanding
Chapter 204 Misunderstanding
Inside the giant bear tribe's tent, Xiong Zhi hurriedly arranged for people to deliver messages to the weasel and reindeer tribes before settling down on a stone bench with a relaxed expression. "Thank goodness..."
Fortunately, things didn't get to the worst point; the Giant Bear tribe wasn't abandoned by the Beast God.
Xiong Zhan sat beside him, silently staring at Xiong Zhi's fair and handsome profile, his expression hesitant. After a long while, he carefully spoke, "Zhi, about the Mad Lion Tribe..."
He didn't know how to tell Xiong Zhi that the Mad Lion Tribe's actions meant they were about to completely antagonize the Giant Bear Tribe.
But Zhi likes Shi Ming. Shi Ming used to show that he liked Xiong Zhi so much, so why has he disappeared now? Doesn't he know how much this will hurt Xiong Zhi?
"Don't mention those unlucky things to me. Let them die. The Mad Lion Tribe dares to do this because they are certain that our tribe is weak and can't do anything right now."
"If you dare to scheme against us, be prepared for retaliation!"
Xiong Zhi got angry as soon as Xiong Zhan mentioned those bastards from the Mad Lion Tribe. His face was expressionless, and his eyes were cold.
“But Shi Ming…” Xiong Zhan felt a pang of sadness just from mentioning that name.
Xiong Zhi asked in surprise, "What's wrong with Shi Ming?"
He frowned. "Zhan, what's wrong with you today?" You're acting really strange.
Seeing the puzzled look in his eyes, Xiong Zhan made up his mind, "Don't you like Shi Ming?"
"What did you say? Who likes Shi Ming?" Xiong Zhi exclaimed, staring at Xiong Zhan in shock, her voice almost cracking!
Fortunately, there were only the two of them inside the tent.
Xiong Zhan cautiously looked at the orc in front of him, then carefully raised his head, "Isn't that right?"
Xiong Zhi felt a chill run down his spine when he thought of what Xiong Zhan had just said. He said in a cold voice, "Am I blind? To like male beastmen like Shi Ming?"
"Arrogant, promiscuous, and hypocritical—do you think I would be interested in him?"
"But after Lionheart never came to the Giant Bear Tribe again, you stayed in your tent alone for three days..."
"What three days?"
Xiong Zhan looked up, "It was not long after my father left..."
Upon hearing Xiong Zhan's words, Xiong Zhi immediately remembered that he was referring to that day, when his eyes dimmed, "I was organizing Father's things..."
Xiong Zhan was stunned. Xiong Zhan came to his senses and was overjoyed!
His hands were behind his back, his fists clenched so tightly they were almost white, and the veins on his hands bulged.
Although she tried to suppress her emotions, a hint of joy still escaped her lips: "So, you don't like Lionheart?"
Xiong Zhi answered without hesitation, "I don't like him! I will never like Shi Ming!"
A brilliant light suddenly flashed in Xiong Zhan's dark eyes.
"Alright, don't worry, I will definitely handle the Mad Lion Tribe." Xiong Zhan's voice was filled with obvious pleasure.
Xiong Zhi looked at Xiong Zhan, who had suddenly become inexplicably happy again, and gave him a strange look.
……
"I've already sent someone to inquire, and we should have news soon."
Xiong Zhi sat beside Lin Baiyan, holding a bone needle in her hand.
The wolves and bears outside were already locked in a fierce battle, which also attracted Hu Yang, who joined the fray.
Fortunately, there are no other tribes nearby, otherwise, such a loud noise would have made people think it was another earthquake.
After a fierce and exhilarating battle, several male beastmen lay exhausted on the ground. Hu Yang sat down heavily on the ground, looking at Xiong Zhan in disbelief.
It's one thing that he can't compare to Lang Cang, but how come he can't even compare to this junior chieftain of the Giant Bear tribe?!
Are all young male orcs this fierce these days?
Xiong Zhi gritted her teeth and handed the finished product to Lin Baiyan, her voice light and cheerful, "Baiyan, come and see how I did?"
Lin Baiyan took the vest and shorts from his hands and praised, "They look great, Zhi, your skills are excellent."
Xiong Zhi smiled and curled her lips.
"Priest, there's news." Leopard Road's voice came from outside the tent.
The two sub-orcs exchanged a glance, then quickly stood up and went to greet them.
After walking a few steps, they saw Xiong Zhan leading a sub-orc into the tent.
"Zhi, you really are here!" Before Xiong Zhi could react, a figure rushed into her arms.
Lin Baiyan only had time to see a baby-faced boy excitedly rushing towards Xiong Zhi.
Xiong Zhi snapped out of her daze, quickly caught the small cannonball that was rushing towards her, and patted him on the back, "Why are you here?"
"You're one to talk! I haven't seen you in ages. I went to look for you, but you wouldn't see me." Xun Su pouted, looking at Xiong Zhi with a somewhat aggrieved expression.
"If I hadn't happened to be with Father when you delivered the message, would you have completely forgotten about me?"
Looking at the sub-beastman in front of her with red eyes and tears about to fall, Xiong Zhi patted his head helplessly, "There have been too many things going on in the tribe these days, that's why I didn't think of coming to see you."
"It's my fault, please don't cry anymore."
Coaxed so gently by Xiong Zhi, Xun Su took advantage of the situation and said, "Then you have to make me a super pretty flower wreath!"
"Good good."
"You also have to make me a sachet!"
"Go, go, go."
"Then I'll also get a pretty stone bracelet!"
"Xun Su, don't go too far!" These were the words Xiong Zhan said.
"Hey hey hey~"
Xun Su, visibly pleased by the gentle coaxing and promises, suddenly became serious upon remembering they were on someone else's turf. He looked at Lin Baiyan with some curiosity, "You are..."
Lin Baiyan watched with great interest as this sub-beastman changed his expression in a second.
The outside world is indeed wonderful. He has only been out for a few days, but he has already seen all kinds of colorful sub-beastmen.
"Hello, I am Bai Yan, the young clan leader of the Cangyan tribe."
"Hello, I'm from the Reindeer Tribe, and I'm Zhi's friend." Xun Su looked at Lin Baiyan and Xiong Zhi standing side by side, looking very harmonious, and inexplicably felt a little unhappy. She added emphatically, "Best friends!"
He didn't realize that he looked like a cute little cub afraid of having its candy stolen.
Xiong Zhi glanced at him with a hint of helplessness. "Yes, he's my friend."
Hearing Xiong Zhi's affirmative answer, Xun Su was finally satisfied, and even shook his head with a little pride at the end.
"I heard you're going to exchange the tribe's pottery jars with us?"
Xiong Zhi nodded. "That's right, you know the current situation of the Giant Bear Tribe."
“These pottery jars will only bring us disaster if they stay in the Giant Bear tribe. I’m thinking of exchanging them all.”
It was just a pre-prepared story they had come up with: other tribes only knew that the Giant Bear tribe possessed pottery jars, but they didn't know exactly how many their tribe had.
With these three pottery jars exchanged, and without such eye-catching items, the Giant Bear Tribe can better recuperate and thrive.
Hearing Xiong Zhi's nonchalant words, Xun Su felt extremely distressed, her voice trembling with tears, "Zhi, don't be like this."
"The Giant Bear Tribe will be alright, I'll go and beg my father to help you!"
