This means the tribe is not far from here.

At this point, everyone stopped rushing and slowed down.

There's no rush now. We can take our time and reach the tribe before dusk.

It's about a kilometer away from the tribe.

Wolves and leopards crossed the warning trap.

However, the group didn't pay much attention and continued on their way.

but……

The tribe heard the sound of the warning traps.

Today, Milu is leading the patrol.

Upon hearing the noise, she immediately led her people toward the direction from which it was coming.

Milu's expression was very serious.

Because it was unknown what had invaded the tribe's territory.

If it's just wild animals, that's fine, but if people from other tribes come, then it's dangerous.

She didn't ride a wolf, but instead weaved between trees.

This is the method Su Che taught them, and she still remembers it to this day.

Moreover, this makes it more discreet and avoids alerting the enemy.

“Milu has come to greet us.”

Su Che, on the wolf's back, suddenly said this.

Daji blinked, puzzled:

"Milu? Where is she? I can't see her."

Su Che smiled faintly:

"She's almost here. She's on her way, and she's not the only one."

It took about ten minutes.

Su Che heard the sounds growing clearer.

His senses had already covered everything within a range of several hundred meters.

When Mi Lu and the others saw the newcomer's face, they were all stunned.

"It's Master Wu!"

"Lord Wu is back?"

"It really is! It really is Lord Wu!"

The seriousness on Mi Lu's face instantly turned into surprise.

She quickened her pace and, catching Su Che and the others completely off guard, jumped down from the tree, landing in front of the wolves and leopards.

Perhaps because they hadn't seen each other for so long, the leopard and the wolf made threatening noises when they saw Mi Lu and the others.

Su Che patted the wolf and smiled:

"Don't be nervous, she's Mi Lu. She's only been away for a while, how could you not recognize her?"

"Ow~~~"

The wolf howled and stretched its neck to sniff.

"Ow~~~"

It let out another howl, but then stopped making any threatening noises.

With Zhiya's comforting words, the leopard quickly calmed down.

Mi Lu and the others were incredibly excited to see Su Che.

She took the lead and knelt down on one knee in front of Su Che.

"Welcome back, Master Wu!"

Others followed suit.

"Welcome back, Master Wu!"

Su Che smiled slightly, glanced at the people who had come, and couldn't help but ask:

"There seem to be a few faces I don't recognize. Have new members joined the hunting team?"

Milu immediately said;

"Yes, Lord Wu. Because the tribe has grown, the need for food has increased. The original hunting team was not enough, so we have added more members to the hunting team."

"Furthermore, the male members of the tribe have already formed two hunting teams, so our tribe is now well-fed!"

"We are always waiting for Master Wu to return, and he will bring back fresh prey every day!"

"Master Wu is back now, and we'll be able to eat fresh meat soon!"

Milu was eagerly telling him about the tribe.

Su Che was initially worried that they wouldn't be able to manage the tribe well.

Now it seems I was overthinking it.

"It seems everyone has been doing well while I was away."

Milu immediately said:

“We pray every day that Master Wu will return soon! The chieftain and the people will be so happy to know that Master Wu is back!”

Although the others didn't say anything, their excitement was written all over their faces.

That's one of the good things about kemonomimi (animal-eared girls).

Emotions can never be hidden.

Even if someone is lying, you can tell by looking at their ears and tail.

"Haha! It's great to see you all! Let's go back and chat some more, or it'll be dark soon."

Milu nodded immediately:

"Yes, Lord Wu!"

Then, the group split into two groups and surrounded Su Che, as if to protect him.

Everyone was extremely tense, holding their bows and arrows as if they were ready to fight at any moment.

Su Che couldn't help but say:

“You’re all in your own territory now, so there’s no need to be so nervous.”

Milu said very seriously:

“Recently, a very ferocious wild beast appeared near our tribe. It is so fast that even arrows cannot hit it. One of our male members was seriously injured because of it, but fortunately he was saved.”

Su Che, riding on the wolf's back, asked in surprise:

"A very ferocious beast? More ferocious than a black bear?"

Milu nodded:

"Yes! It's about the same size and shape as a black bear, but its limbs, ears, eyes, and tail are black, while the rest of its body is white. It doesn't look like a black bear."

Listening to Mi Lu's analysis, Su Che couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"Could it be... a panda?"

Mi Lu looked at Su Che:

"panda?"

Su Che smiled and said:

"Pandas also have another name, 'iron-eating beast,' because they have an extremely strong bite force and are incredibly fast. It's just a pity that they were on the verge of extinction and now they live by being cute!"

Milu looked puzzled:

"Making a living by being cute?"

Su Che laughed heartily:

"It's alright! Don't kill them directly next time they appear!"

"Let me first confirm whether it is indeed a metal-eating beast, but you should also be careful not to get hurt by it."

Although I don't quite understand what Su Che means, anything that interests Su Che must be useful.

Therefore, Milu immediately accepted the order:

"Yes, Lord Wu! I will inform you when this beast appears."

Su Che continued on his way in a cheerful mood.

Unexpectedly, I found a pleasant surprise the moment I got back.
