Traveling through the world of beasts: The beast husband is crazy about love and becomes addicted to

The sounds outside the cave grew louder and louder, gradually changing from a rustling sound to a creaking and a rumbling sound, as if countless enormous creatures were crushing the forest and heading towards the cave where they were hiding.

Ji Xing dared not linger for a moment, immediately rushing to the cave entrance and asking the orc on guard in a low voice.

"Did you see clearly? What position are we at?"

The orc's night vision wasn't very good, and given that some plants were already on the ground, it moved underground, making it difficult to distinguish itself from the raised soil.

"I can't see very clearly, but the sounds are very close. It sounds like biting plants have arrived too, reflecting the moonlight; there's a large patch of them."

These words sank the hearts of all the orcs in the cave. They had already experienced the terror of those man-eating flowers. Those flowers could lie in ambush underground, suddenly darting out to bite you when you weren't looking, and spewing out a smoke that choked you so badly you couldn't open your eyes.

Jing Xie squinted at the pitch-black night outside, then suddenly sneered, turned around, and grabbed Lin Zhi's wrist: "Come on, I'll take you away from here first." His voice wasn't loud, but he had made up his mind. In short, he couldn't care less about anyone else; taking Lin Zhi away was more than enough.

"These things are clearly targeting this area. It's far too dangerous, Linzhi. Let me get you to a safe place first."

Lin Zhi was being pulled along by Jing Xie. Looking at the panicked cries of the females and the wailing of their hungry cubs inside the cave, and the wounded orcs still struggling to their feet to fight, she knew Jing Xie was doing it for her own good. He didn't want her to stay there and face danger. Besides… she was indeed a burden; Ji Xing and the others would have to protect her while they fought. But… was he really just going to leave like this?

"Jing Xie, let go!" Yun Ying stepped forward, wary of Jing Xie, fearing that he might accidentally lead Lin Zhi back to the Forgotten Continent.

Actually, he's right.

Lin Zhi suddenly spoke, forcefully shaking off Jing Xie's hand.

"Don't bother fighting. We can't win. Staying here is just suicide. Let's just abandon the back mountain and leave. The continent is so big, there's bound to be somewhere we can stay. They can't keep chasing us everywhere."

"no"

A two-star ring orc suddenly looked at her, his tiger eyes wide open.

"This is our tribe, our roots, how can we just give it up?"

An elderly orc spoke weakly.

"Yes, little female, why not hold on one more time? Ji Xing is a powerful expert with a reverse star ring; if we persevere a little longer, we might just win."

The old orc's meaning was clear: White Stone possessed top-tier combat power on this continent, yet he was driven from his home by some inexplicable plants. If word got out, who knew what people would say about him? It would be a great humiliation.

"boom!"

A huge rock was swept away by the writhing, thick tree roots outside, rolled down the mountainside, and crashed heavily not far from the cave entrance. The entire cave shook, and a cloud of dust fell.

"Ah!" the female screamed in terror. The cubs, though not yet fully grown into beast forms, also let out mournful cries like animals.

"Hold on, my God, what can we use to hold on?"

Lin Zhi pointed outside the cave, her voice rising a few decibels, tinged with a sharpness.

"Look for yourselves, there are too many of them, we can't kill them all. They're not afraid of poison, they're not afraid of being attacked. Ji Xing has the Reverse Star Ring, and Jing Xie is a Beast Tamer who can summon scorpions, but they are beastmen, not beast gods. They'll get tired and injured. Are we going to wait for them to die from exhaustion, or like he just said, activate that mutual destruction skill and bury us all here? What time is it? Can you stop being so hesitant?"

When Ji Xing suggested activating the special skill "Collapse," many people heard it. It meant the destruction of everything, and if they were too slow, they might even be affected themselves.

Ji Xing's face was ashen, his fists clenched tightly.

The terrifying sounds outside the cave grew ever closer. With his pride, abandoning the tribe in this way was absolutely unacceptable. But as Linzhi had said, continuing to hold out might result in the annihilation of everyone.

Jing Xie had no choice. If Lin Zhi refused to leave, he would have to retreat with a large group of burdens. He said to Ji Xing in a deep voice.

"Activating your special skill now is too risky. Plants advance very quickly, and with so many injured orcs, females, and cubs, there won't be enough time to retreat to a safe distance. Once the skill is activated, we might be the first to be buried."

Jing Xie actually wanted to suggest that they leave first, and Ji Xing could stay behind and activate her special skill, but... after all, they had to consider Lin Zhi, and if he said that, Lin Zhi would definitely be angry.

After a moment of silence, only the plants drew closer and closer, plunging the area into complete stillness.

Lin Zhi said in a fit of anger

"Don't just stand there! Take whatever you can, mainly food and water, and the wounded. Prioritize the females and cubs. Elvin, go and find all our wolf cubs and keep an eye on them. Don't lose a single one. Yunying, help organize everyone's orderly evacuation. Jixing, you're familiar with the terrain, decide on the evacuation route. Jingxie..."

She looked at Jing Xie, who seemed lost in thought and appeared to be plotting something mischievous, and leaned closer to ask him.

What are you thinking about?

Jing Xie snapped out of his daze and smiled at Lin Zhi: "No, don't overthink it."

Lin Zhi was suspicious and distrustful: "Do you want us to retreat to the Forgotten Continent?"

Jing Xie was quite surprised that his thoughts had been guessed. He chose not to admit it. His current position among males was rather strange; given his past record, he needed to be even more cautious.

Jing Xie turned his head to the side: "I'll help evacuate the orcs."

Lin Zhi clicked her tongue and shook her head. She would never go back to that place again. She didn't believe that these things could chase her to the ends of the earth.

Ji Xing glanced at Lin Zhi, his eyes filled with complex emotions. The place where he was born and raised had been destroyed, and a bitter feeling still lingered in his heart, but he had no other choice. All his former pride seemed to have been constantly battered in recent years, first by Jing Xie, and now by this one.

He spoke without further hesitation.

"Listen to Linzhi, everyone, prepare to evacuate and head towards the eastern mainland."

The eastern continent has a complex terrain with many caves, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is currently the most suitable refuge, mainly because there is relatively little vegetation, allowing for better movement and response.

At the command, the cave immediately sprang into action.

The orcs had no other choice; a hint of reluctance lingered on their faces, but they stopped hesitating and quickly got to work.

Those who could move helped those who couldn't. Male orcs carried heavy supplies and wounded companions on their backs, while females and cubs were cared for by other orcs. With strange emotions on their faces, they retreated helplessly.

Elwen, a wolf-like creature, darted in and out in a flash, searching for the eight energetic wolf cubs who were more likely to get lost in such chaos. The cubs, understanding the current danger, were unusually obedient and didn't run off, mainly because Elwen's anger was intimidating, and they dared not disobey.

Ji Xi, carried on her male's back, watched the bustling crowd and her brother deciding to evacuate. She opened her mouth, wanting Ji Xing to carry her, but then she met Lin Zhi's gaze and bit her lip tightly, her eyes filled with resentment. However, no matter how willful she was, she dared not cause trouble when her life was at stake.

"Come on!"

"Keep up with the group"

Watch your step!

Amidst the commotion, the orcs began to emerge from another exit of the cave behind the mountain. To prepare for unforeseen circumstances, the tribe's important caves usually had multiple exits, which had never been used before, but were now being put to use.
