Chapter 44: Revenge

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

There were more than 50 beasts with Ma Qing and Ya Qiu, but Ma Qing was not an easy person to deal with. Since he dared to bring so few people over to the rock mountain, he must have had a backup plan.

To be safe, Shuang Yun specially brought more people down the mountain this time.

He had taken away nearly 200 of the 300 members of the Rock Wolf Tribe.

Even if they were ambushed on the way, this number was enough for them to escape unscathed.

After Shuang Yun left, the entire rock mountain became much quieter.

Lin Huanhuan slept for two days and finally woke up on the third day.

The first thing she did when she woke up was grab Bai Di’s hand and say anxiously, “Go and save Sang Ye. He’s injured and needs treatment!”

Bai Di took her in his arms and stroked her back to calm her down.

When she calmed down a little, he asked slowly, “Who is Sang Ye?”

“He’s a python. He was badly injured trying to save me. He told me to come back first, then find others to save him. You have to save him!”

Bai Di kept his expression neutral. “You seem concerned about him?”

Although Lin Huanhuan was awake, her head was still groggy. She didn’t hear the probing meaning in Bai Di’s words at all. She said anxiously, “He got injured because of me. I have to save him! Please help me!”

Bai Di lowered his head and kissed her forehead, his gaze gentle and weary. “You can tell me what you want me to do. As long as it’s within my capability, I’ll do it for you.”

As long as she didn’t leave him again.

In the few days she was missing, Bai Di had experienced a sense of loss and helplessness he had never experienced before.

He didn’t even want to think about how he would survive if she died.

He had no choice but to look for her. He didn’t eat or drink. He didn’t sleep either.

Fortunately, he was lucky enough to finally find her.

Lin Huanhuan seemed to sense his uneasiness and reached out to hug him.

His embrace was as warm and generous as ever as if he was holding up her world for her. The cold wind and snow seemed to be isolated from the world.

She leaned into his embrace. “Thank you,” she whispered.

…

Lin Huanhuan wanted to go down the mountain with Bai Di, but she was still sick and very weak.

Neither Bai Di nor Lang Zhu approved of her dragging her sick body down the mountain.

Helpless, she could only give up the idea of going down the mountain herself.

Sang Ye did not know Bai Di. In order to prevent Sang Ye from treating him as a liar or an enemy, Lin Huanhuan stuffed the black gem pendant that Sang Ye had given her into Bai Di’s hand.

“After you see Sang Ye, show him this pendant and he’ll believe that you’re my family.”

Bai Di glanced at the black gem pendant in his hand, his blue eyes continuing to darken.

It was actually a high-level black crystal!

With such a crystal on him, it seemed that Sang Ye’s background was not simple.

Bai Di thought deeply about it, but he kept a gentle smile on his face. He put away the black gem pendant and promised, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely help you bring him back.”

Lin Huanhuan dragged her sickly body and sent him out of the house.

She wanted to send him down the mountain, but he refused.

When Bai Di walked to the entrance of the cave, he saw Jiu Yuan standing there with 20 beasts. They were all carrying bags and looked ready to go on a long trip.

“What are you doing?”

Jiu Yuan said steadily, “The old witch doctor asked us to come. It’s not safe for you to go down the mountain alone. We’ll accompany you so that we can take care of each other on the way.”

Bai Di smiled. “Thank you.”

“Huanhuan has become mates with our clan leader. You’re also Huanhuan’s mate. In the future, we’ll have to stay in the Rock Wolf Tribe and live together. We’re family. It’s only right for us to take care of each other.”

Bai Di was touched.

Previously, he had only treated the rock mountain as a temporary foothold. Once winter passed, he would leave slowly.

Cats were not like canines. Big cats tended to live alone rather than in groups.

But at this moment, the Rock Wolf Tribe’s initiative to help made Bai Di finally feel a sense of belonging here.

With such a group of loyal clansmen, it didn’t feel bad to stay here in the future.

…

Lin Huanhuan’s body had yet to recover, so she had to recuperate at home. Mu Xiang had nothing to do, so she came to visit her with a big belly.

Mu Xiang’s stomach was already very big and looked round.

She smiled and said, “This child was conceived early. The old witch doctor said that he might be born early before spring.”

Lin Huanhuan couldn’t help but touch her belly. It felt warm and very comfortable.

She was a little envious. “It’ll be a healthy, cute baby.”

Mu Xiang pursed her lips and smiled. “You and Patriarch Shuang Yun have to work hard too. Try to get pregnant this winter. When spring comes, you’ll have a cute baby!”

Lin Huanhuan couldn’t help but blush.

Mu Xiang had a good impression of Shuang Yun and Bai Di, but Shuang Yun was their leader, after all. She would definitely prefer for Huanhuan’s first child to be Shuang Yun’s, so she said a lot of good things about Shuang Yun to Huanhuan.

Lin Huanhuan was amused.

Mu Xiang only stopped talking when Lang Zhu walked in with the freshly squeezed medicine.

The medicine made by the old witch doctor was still frighteningly bitter.

Lin Huanhuan pinched her nose and poured the medicine into her mouth. She hurriedly stuffed two sweet fruits into her mouth to barely suppress the bitterness in her mouth.

Lang Zhu said to her, “We’re all worried about you staying alone at home now. Do you want to stay at my house for the time being? I’m an old man anyway. I won’t have any thoughts about you. You can live at my place without worry.”

Lin Huanhuan shook her head slowly. “I want to stay at home.”

She felt secure in this place she had been staying with Bai Di and Shuang Yun.

Lang Zhu didn’t force her. “That works too. I’ll visit you every day. Take good care of yourself and don’t run around. Otherwise, you’ll get a new illness before you recover.”

Mu Xiang laughed loudly. “I want to play with Huanhuan every day too!”

Lin Huanhuan looked at her big belly and was a little worried. “Will it be bad for the fetus if you run around like this?”

Mu Xiang waved her hand. “It’s fine! I’m very strong. It’s fine to walk a few more steps!”

Lang Zhu also said, “It’s good for the baby and the mother to walk more when they’re pregnant.”

Hearing their words, Lin Huanhuan was relieved.

In the next few days, Lang Zhu and Mu Xiang would visit Huan Huan every day.

Her illness was gradually improving. She often went to the cellar to bring out homemade pickles and jam to entertain them.

Although Lang Zhu was old, he was still a pure carnivore. He didn’t like to eat these things.

Only Mu Xiang, who was also a female, liked the jam and pickles very much. She sometimes brought the jam she made and compared it to the jam Huanhuan made.

The relationship between the two females was getting better.

At this moment, a group of vicious beasts suddenly rushed up the rock mountain and barged into the territory of the Rock Wolf Tribe!

They were all from the Black River Wolf Tribe, and their leader was Ya Qiu.

They were here for revenge!

At the same time, they were here to plunder territory and food!

They were like wolves and tigers. They rushed into the cave with murderous auras and wantonly burned, killed, and plundered!
