"Pfft!"

Ye Xing dragged Hu Qing all the way down, and fell for several meters before finally touching the ground.

There was a damp and stuffy smell of earth all around, but the cave was still relatively dry.

The tunnel was pitch black and she could only rely on her senses, but the scene seemed inexplicably familiar. The next moment, a small animal came running over from the other end of the tunnel, squeaking.

Ye Xing's eyes lit up, she knew -

"Squeak..."

The little thing rubbed its cold little head against Ye Xing's calf, then turned around and continued to crawl, clearly asking her to catch up.

Ye Xing followed without hesitation.

This tunnel is not very deep to the ground, and one can vaguely feel the vibration coming from the ground. From time to time, dirt and gravel fall from the top of the cave.

The crisis is still there. Ye Xing is worried that Hu Qing will make mistakes again, so he would rather drag him half-dead than wake him up.

The little thing in front was still leading the way. The tunnel was narrow and low, so she had to keep her back bent as she walked forward.

His Highness Ye had a smooth life in the first half of his life. Except for almost dying, he had never been bullied. Now that he has experienced everything, big and small, he can actually remain calm inside. It turns out that any experience can make a person "grow"!

Ye Xing gritted his teeth and pulled Hu Qing closer again, listening carefully to the movement above. It was obvious that they were getting farther and farther away, but if he wanted to completely avoid Hu Changlei's encirclement, he would probably still have to go some distance.

Sure enough, after walking for more than two hours, just when Ye Xing was exhausted and almost couldn't hold on, there was a sudden dimness in front of his eyes, followed by a bright light.

"……call!"

Ye Xing exposed his head, stood up straight and let out a long breath. He lowered his head and shook the Hu Qing in his hand. Feeling that he was still breathing, he jumped onto the ground with great effort.

As soon as she came out of the ground, several small silver animals surrounded her, squeaking.

They looked very anxious, sniffing with their heads down and trying to poke Ye Xing with their little claws. Some of them even rubbed their heads against her calves. Their little black eyes were watery, as if they were talking.

Ye Xing's expression darkened, and he reached out to touch the silver scales for the first time: "Round head, long ears, pointed mouth..."

For the first time she remembered their names.

This was Humian's armored beast, and it saved her life once again.

The tears in his eyes flashed away, and Ye Xing realized that there was no time to be sad now.

She could guess that the armored beasts might be looking for tiger cotton, and they were anxious because they couldn't find it.

But she didn't know how to comfort these little things. When she was in a panic, Hu Qing struggled in his chest for a few times, coughed violently a few times, and finally woke up.

When he woke up, he was confused for only a moment, then he immediately turned over and stood up, letting out a low roar from his throat, his eyes were red, and he looked extremely alert and irritable.

However, when he turned around, he saw Ye Xing with an expressionless face. His face immediately turned pale and he knelt down.

Ye Xing was so angry that she could not make him become a good person. When she saw his expression, she suppressed her anger and said, "Where is this place? Do you remember it?"

Hu Qing was stunned at first, then he staggered to his feet, looked around, and then looked at the armored beasts suspiciously, and replied in a low voice: "This is a broad-leaved forest area, which is quite far from the tribe. It will take about a day's journey!"

This was somewhat unexpected. I didn't expect that the armored beast had dug such a long way underground.

Because of this, they were able to temporarily escape Hu Changlei's search.

She guessed in her heart that the armored beasts must have found the Tiger Tribe based on Humian's scent, but she never thought that they saved them by accident.

"I didn't expect that in the end I would have to rely on you little guys!" Ye Xing touched his round head and sighed softly.

Hu Qing looked even more depressed when he heard this. He knelt down again and apologized: "Your Highness! I'm sorry!"

"Where did you go wrong?"

"me……"

Hu Qing tried for a long time but couldn't utter a complete sentence. In the end, his eyes turned red and he had to hold back his tears.

This reaction surprised Ye Xing a little. She still remembered how carefree Hu Qing was when he said he could just solve the physical problems with her without talking about feelings. She didn't expect that he would care so much about Hu Qiwawa now.

She glanced at the faint traces of blood between Hu Qing's clenched fingers and asked, "Hu Qiwa defected to Hu Changlei and almost killed you, but you still can't let her go?"

Hu Qing panted rapidly, as if he was trying hard to suppress the surging emotions in his heart. After a long while, he spoke: "I, I didn't expect her to do this. She clearly said that she would be loyal to me for the rest of her life and only be with me. She is also pregnant with our child. I have even thought of the child's name... I can't understand why she became like this? Why!"

"…Have you ever thought that she was originally like this?"

"……What's the meaning?"

Ye Xing really didn't expect that Hu Qing was actually such a lovesick man. Seeing him like this, he even felt a subtle sense of guilt in his heart.

"I have always been suspicious of Hu Qiwa and never really believed in her. I thought you were on guard, but I didn't expect you... Hu Qing, heroes are short-tempered and girls are sentimental. You care so much about emotional matters. This is a taboo!"

"That should be my wife and children! I should care!" Hu Qing was excited.

"Even if it's your wife and children, you don't have to entrust everything to them!"

"But my wife and children are everything to me!"

Ye Xing paused, feeling something strange in her heart. All her life, she only cared about the friendship between sisters and brothers, never cared about the love between men and women, and had never thought about getting married and having daughters. People who wanted to achieve great things should not be confined to such trivial love affairs, but she did not expect Hu Qing to react like this.

She couldn't empathize with that.

But there is really no need for empathy!

Hu Qing stared at Ye Xing, thinking of what she had just said, and asked solemnly: "Your Highness, what do you mean by you have always been suspicious of Qi Wa?"

"Need I say more?" Ye Xing faced Hu Qing calmly: "Betrayal is something that will happen again if it happens for the first time. If you are forced to do something, you will be forced to do it, and you will be helpless... In the end, it's all about yourself! I gave her a chance to prove herself, it doesn't mean I trust her.

So, I arranged Hu Changya in advance and had him waiting outside. I just didn't expect that you didn't escape from danger immediately, but instead chose to fight against Hu Changlei.

With your ability, it won’t be difficult to escape the cave as soon as you find something wrong! This is why I didn’t warn you in advance. Now it seems that I took it for granted! "

Hu Qing listened in silence, his expression changing from grief and suspicion to sadness and realization to numbness, and finally he sat down dejectedly with the light gone from his eyes.

He kept muttering: "But she is still pregnant with our child!"

"Hu Qing, if she can betray Hu Mian for the safety of her family, she may betray you for her own benefit. I thought you knew it! When she wanted to know where you and I were, you should have been alert.

Maybe she didn't tell Hu Changlei about your whereabouts before because she still had some affection for you, but from now on, your position in her heart will no longer be more important than her own safety! Put away your deep affection and face the reality! "Ye Xing was also sincere in her advice.

After thinking about it, he decided to tell him: "It was Fox Qiwa who dragged you out of the cave. No matter if she wanted to hand you over to Hu Changlei or hide yourself, you will not have a good result unless you betray me like her! However, even if you choose to betray me, Hu Changlei will not tolerate you because of his character!"

"Hu Qing, I am using my life to demonstrate to you that you must learn to see the reality clearly!"

Hu Qing sat there blankly, letting his hot tears fall. After a while, he suddenly wiped the tears from his face fiercely and said hatefully, "I will kill Hu Qiwa myself! But I can't give up my child! I must take my child back!"

The expression in Ye Xing's eyes changed, and inside was an inexplicable sigh that Hu Qing couldn't understand: "Hu Qiwa deceived Hu Mian first, and then betrayed me. I will never forgive her! As for the child... I promise you, if she can give birth, I will help you get it back!"

……

As the night fell, countless torches were lit in the Tiger Tribe, and everyone was alarmed.

When Hu Changlei heard the alarm outside the tribe, he rushed out immediately, but all he saw was the body of one of his subordinates.

However, the surviving team member could not say anything, and he did not even see Ye Xing's appearance clearly, let alone her whereabouts.

Hu Changlei was so angry that he wanted to take his life.

What made him even more angry was that not only Ye Xing had disappeared, but even the seriously injured Hu Qing and Hu Qiwa were missing.

"Everyone, search every inch! I don't believe they can fly into the sky!"

Hu Changlei forced himself to stay calm. He didn't believe anyone could escape his encirclement in such a short time.

unless……

He turned around and looked behind him. His "good son" Hu Changya was loudly ordering his subordinates to speed up the search, and reminded them to pay attention to safety.

He remembered that the first sentence pointing out Ye Xing came from his mouth, which immediately caused panic among people.

If this is not just a coincidence, then... the story behind this is really interesting.

And the old man...

He just didn't understand why so many people were willing to be with Ye Xing in such a short period of time!

"Chief... Fox Qiwa is here, she fainted!"

“Bring it here...!” Hu Changlei’s eyes were filled with ruthlessness.
