Chapter 302 Asking about the Return Date (Bonus Chapter for 7 Cats Book Friend 1025)
Only the Beast King, Xia Weier, and the elders of the Red Fox Tribe remained in the entire council hall.
Even the armored guards left.
The Beast King took out a compass-like array plate and placed a crystal core on it.
He looked at the elder of the Red Fox tribe and said, "What do you want to say? Go ahead and say it."
The elder of the Red Fox tribe swallowed hard.
He dared not look the Beast King in the eye, and said with a forced smile, "Our tribe knows that the Holy Female Ruan Xiyue can give birth to cubs with ancestral bloodlines."
The Beast King coldly stared at the elders of the Red Fox Tribe, but Xia Weier spoke up: "It was the Eighth Princess who told you, wasn't it?"
The elder of the Red Fox tribe swallowed hard and shook his head.
As a result, the rune array beneath his feet lit up with a red light.
The elder of the Red Fox tribe looked deathly pale, and in his heart he was cursing the priesthood to the core.
Why didn't you shut this down after you left? Are you crazy?
The Beast King sneered and asked again, "Why kill Holy Mother Ruan Xiyue? Do you intend to kill all of Holy Mother Ruan Xiyue's cubs as well?"
The elders of the Red Fox tribe were on the verge of tears, saying, "The main problem is that the Holy Mother Ruan Xiyue is getting very close to the beastmen of the Spirit Fox tribe. We are worried that she will give birth to cubs with ancestral bloodlines, and we are also afraid that her cubs will have the opportunity to seek revenge on us in the future."
The rune array on the ground had a beige halo.
The elder of the Red Fox tribe looked utterly nonchalant, as if he'd given up entirely: "I truly disagree. In fact, half the elders in our tribe disagree!"
"But the chieftain agrees! He's an orc with three votes, so the elders' split opinion doesn't matter!"
"Half of our elders truly want to marry the Holy Female Ruan Xiyue," the Red Fox Tribe elder said, tears streaming down his face.
Their Red Fox tribe originally numbered over 40,000 orcs, and they were living peacefully in that place.
They could take whatever medicinal plants were available around them, because their tribe had once produced a holy maiden who had married the beast king.
The Beast King turned a blind eye to the occasional shortfall in tributes from their tribe.
Everything was so wonderful!
Now, of their original 40,000 orcs, only 30,000 remain! And the entire tribe has been punished by being sent to guard the border!
Many large tribes were sent to guard the border cities, and when they returned, only the number of orcs from medium-sized tribes remained!
The elders of the Red Fox tribe were truly heartbroken by this!
I made just one wrong decision!
How could he not cry? What will happen to his cubs and grandchildren!
The situation in the border town was really tough!
After listening to the elders of the Red Fox tribe, the Beast King sighed and said, "You shall go to Xiyu Beast City! You will be punished by being stationed there for ten years, but your entire tribe must swear an oath never to reveal a single secret related to the Holy Female Ruan Xiyue. If you break this oath, you will be stationed there for a hundred years!"
"Do you think this punishment is acceptable?"
What could the elder of the Red Fox tribe say? He could only wipe away his tears and agree.
After dealing with the Red Fox tribe's issues, the Beast King looked at Xia Weier, who was about to leave, and asked directly, "When are you going back to the Cheetah Lion tribe?"
Xia Weier turned to look at the Beast King: "After we find the black witch doctor who cast the life-stealing spell on my mother, me, and my cub."
The Beast King waved his hand: "No need to look anymore, he's dead. I killed him myself. You can go and have your cubs with the Holy Female Ruan Xiyue without worry!"
Xia Weier frowned, but he didn't speak.
The Beast King, thinking Xia Weier didn't believe him, said in a cold voice tinged with helplessness, "I really killed him with my own hands! You hurry up and go with the Holy Female Ruan Xiyue to breed! It would be best if you could give birth to a Moon Rabbit cub with ancestral bloodline as soon as possible!"
Xia Weier made no promises, nor did she even respond; she simply turned and left.
The Beast King was furious, pointing at Xia Weier's retreating figure: "You unfilial son!"
He felt that he had restrained his greed for Xia Weier's sake. He did not choose to take away Xia Weier's lifespan, but resolutely killed his brother who had bewitched him.
Xia Weier, however, was not filial at all.
It really infuriated the Beast King!
However, Xia Weier did not disbelieve that the Beast King had killed the Black Witch Doctor.
Although he didn't know why the Beast King killed the Black Witch Doctor, since the Beast King had kept the Black Witch Doctor alive for so long, there must have been a reason for not killing him.
However, Xia Weier did not know why the Black Witch Doctor was suddenly killed.
However, there was one thing Xia Weier was clear about.
That is, if he and Ruan Xiyue have a cub with ancestral bloodline, the Beast King will definitely take it to his side.
Xia Weier gets a headache just thinking about it.
Ruan Xiyue may seem like an unreliable mother, but she has done everything she can to provide a good life for her cubs.
Do they want to snatch the cubs from Ruan Xiyue and raise them with the Beast King?
Putting aside whether Xia Weier agrees or not, Ruan Xiyue is already furious!
So even though Xia Weier missed Ruan Xiyue so much, he wasn't in a hurry to go back.
However, it was clear that the Beast King was getting anxious.
The orc representatives from the other tribes will surely relay this information back to their respective tribes.
And those tribes will one day find out that Ruan Xiyue can give birth to offspring with ancestral bloodlines!
Xia Weier gets a headache just thinking about it.
However, Ruan Xiyue's arrangements are progressing quite quickly. Perhaps by the time those tribes start keeping an eye on Ruan Xiyue, their Hope Beast City will already be completed.
Once Ruan Xiyue settles in Hope Beast City, we will have more confidence in defending against these orcs.
But how can they mediate with the Beast King?
Once Xia Weier reached his own bedroom, he asked Ruan Xiyue, "What are your thoughts over there?"
It turned out that Ruan Xiyue had learned that Xia Weier was going to attend the trial in the parliament hall that day, so she had contacted Xia Weier in advance through her earring.
She just hadn't spoken to Xia Weier.
After a moment, Ruan Xiyue replied to Xia Weier, "Your council hall is quite interesting!"
After listening to this for a whole day, Ruan Xiyue felt that their Beast God Continent's council hall was very similar to the United Nations General Assembly in her previous life.
Each tribe has an elder in charge of diplomatic affairs, who leads a group of orcs and is stationed in the holy city.
Then this elder maintained communication with the tribe, conveying the tribe's demands to the Beast King, and the Beast King also relayed some matters to the tribe through these elders.
This is more advanced than the feudal system of vassal states under a slave system.
Xia Wei'er asked, puzzled, "What's so interesting about it? They'll soon send their own tribes' orcs to keep an eye on you. They'll definitely want to find out what secrets you have."
Ruan Xiyue wasn't too worried: "It's alright, this way we can screen our allies."
“Before, we had to send orcs to find other tribes to cooperate with. I also had to rack my brains to think about how to open up trade routes between Hope Beast City and other orc cities and tribes after we moved to Beast City in three to five months.”
"They're watching me, so let them watch! I'm confident I can shift their attention to our products."
"By the time they discover my secret of being able to give birth to cubs with ancestral bloodlines after we move into Beast City, it will be too late! I think we can keep this a secret for a few months!"
"Limu has already learned how to deliver babies and handle the umbilical cord. The important thing is, when are you coming back?"
