Outside the tribe, Lan Xiu stood with his hands behind his back.

The stray animals around were also on high alert, as if they were waiting for someone.

After a while, regular footsteps were heard, and a gentle voice sounded, "Hu Lai greets the leader."

The orc who was speaking was thin and tall, with fair skin, a delicate and gentle appearance, completely different from the ferocious stray beasts.

But the three animal patterns on his face and the shrewdness in his eyes made people dare not underestimate him.

Lan Xiu turned around and glanced at him, saying in a sly tone, "How come after not seeing you for a few months, your strength hasn't changed at all?"

Hu Lai, like Mo Xiao, is his right-hand man. Although Hu Lai's fighting ability is not that strong, he is quick-witted and good at scheming.

The most important thing is that Hu Lai is law-abiding and a very loyal subordinate to him. He was able to escape danger several times thanks to Hu Lai's strategies.

Hu Lai played an indispensable role in his ability to quickly establish his own power in Langya Valley.

Hu Lai laughed softly, revealing two dimples.

"Chief, please stop teasing me. I have a good brain, but my strength has been growing slowly. Fortunately, the chief did not despise me and took me in and gave me a meal."

"Otherwise, Hu Lai would have become a pile of bones by now."

Lan Xiu nodded and said seriously: "It's a relief that you have a conscience."

"What's going on in Wolf Fang Valley now?"

Before he came out, he handed the Wolf Fang Valley to Hu Lai for care, and he didn't know whether the Feather Clan would take the opportunity to attack him.

"Everything is normal in Langya Valley, and I have taken in many stray beasts. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The Feathered Tribe dare not attack easily. But you, the leader, had a difficult journey. As soon as I got the news, I immediately brought people here."

Hu Lai paused and looked worried.

"Fortunately, the leader is fine, but we have to hurry back immediately to prevent the Feather Tribe from causing trouble again."

Lan Xiu gave him an admiring look, "I feel relieved to have you guarding the Wolf Fang Valley. As for those Feather Tribe, I will wipe them out sooner or later!"

Hu Lai shook his head humbly, "This is what I should do."

"It's just... it's a pity that Xiaotou was blinded by the poison."

Mo Xiao, who had been silent on the side, was not moved at all by his words. Although they were both Lan Xiu's right-hand men, he had never liked Hu Lai.

Hu Lai was too cunning, and often made him feel hypocritical.

Lan Xiu knew that the two of them were secretly at odds, so he changed the subject appropriately, "This trip to Qianyu Forest caused me to lose most of my men, but fortunately the snake demon is dead."

"When we return to Wolf Fang Valley, you will continue to recruit stray beasts to expand our power."

When Hu Lai heard that the snake was dead, he drooped his eyelids.

"Yes, chief."

"Leave the recruitment of stray beasts to me."

As he said this, he glanced at the cold and hard Mo Xiao and said with a smile: "We should find a witch doctor to check Xiaotou's eyes. What if it can be cured?"

"Besides, there happens to be a tribe nearby. Let's get the witch doctor from the tribe to cure Xiaotou's blindness."

"As a member of the Feather Clan, if I lose my eyes, my strength will be greatly reduced. How can I regain my former identity?"

Mo Xiao said in a cold tone, "Don't worry about it."

"Hehe... It's been a long time since we last met, and Xiaotou is still as unkind as ever." Hu Lai made a hidden accusation in his words.

The atmosphere became a little tense, and Lan Xiu frowned to break their discord, "Mo Xiao's personality has always been like this, why do you care about him?"

"Also, his eyes have been examined by a skilled witch doctor. I believe he will be able to see again soon."

"Oh, is it so?"

"That's great!" Although Hu Lai was laughing, his laughter seemed a bit forced.

After a pause, he suggested: "Chief, now that we have met, let's set off immediately to return to Langya Valley."

Lan Xiu waved his hand and said, "No hurry. Her injuries haven't fully recovered yet. It doesn't matter if she delays for a few more days."

she?

who is it?

Could it be a female that the leader captured from outside?

There was a flash of confusion in Hu Lai's eyes, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

It seems that many interesting things have happened during this period.

Then, he asked in confusion, "Where is she now, as the leader mentioned?"

"Isn't it in this tribe of vegetarian orcs?"

Lan Xiu responded in a deep voice, "That's right."

"She was seriously injured and will need to recuperate for a few more days."

Speaking of Hu Feifei, he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have been out for a long time, and Feifei might have woken up a long time ago.

After saying, "You guys continue to guard outside," he strode towards the tribe.

Hu Lai observed Lan Xiu's every move and was a little surprised to find that he seemed to be very concerned about this new female.

Their leader is a cold-blooded killer that everyone fears. When would he start to worry about the life or death of a female?

He even delayed again and again for her.

This made him curious about the female, and he followed her closely to find out what was going on.

However, as soon as he arrived at the entrance of the tribe, he was stopped by the orcs in the tribe and sternly warned, "No outsiders are allowed to enter!"

Seeing that Lan Xiu had disappeared and he was stopped, Hu Lai stared at the orcs with a forced smile.

"Don't worry, I'm just going in to check on the patient. I have no other intentions. I'll be out soon."

Seeing that he was not as ferocious as other stray beasts, the attitudes of several orcs softened a little.

"Our clan leader has instructed that only one stray beast is allowed in."

Hearing this, Hu Lai raised his eyebrows.

The smile on his lips was sinister, "Heh...your clan leader's instructions?"

"If we wanted to break in, your tribe would have ceased to exist long ago, so where would the chief come from?"

"We didn't do it because we didn't have the heart to do it. So what are you afraid of?!"

"Sometimes you should not be so dull, you should be more flexible so as not to get yourself into trouble."

He pushed aside a few orcs and swaggered into the tribe.

Seeing this, an anxious bull orc could only hurriedly go to report to the chief.

In the fenced yard, Hu Feifei was frying beans.

There are also washed vegetables and chopped onions, ginger and garlic next to the chopping board.

In the other stone pot was stewing fragrant rice.

After so long, she can finally have a proper meal today!

The aroma of cooking wafted throughout the Qinggu tribe, attracting many females and cubs to peek in and swallow their saliva.

When he saw Lan Xiu's figure, he immediately shrank back into the room in fear.

Lan Xiu saw Hu Feifei busying herself, so he walked over and asked lovingly, "Feifei, what kind of food are you making?"

"Why does it smell so good?"

Hu Feifei replied while cooking, "Stir-fried seasonal vegetables."

"There's also rice, but you probably don't like it."

Lan Xiu raised his eyebrows and secretly put his arms around her slender waist.

"I haven't tasted it yet, how do you know I don't like it?"

"As long as it's made by you, I'll eat it even if it's poison."

The sudden greasy remarks made Hu Feifei shudder with disgust, and she dodged Lan Xiu's vicious hands.

"Don't hinder me."

"If you want to eat, sit aside and wait."

The hot breath he exhaled made her feel a little itchy, and she hated being disturbed when she was busy.
