Traveling through the world of beasts, making a living

"Then do you know which tribes are still in the Northern Continent?"

"I don't know. The clan leader didn't allow us to forage in the Northern Continent, saying it was deserted and there was no food. We went to the Western and Eastern Continents. Chi Yan went to your Eastern Continent to forage for food and train!"

"Why aren't you allowed to forage on your own land? Even if the war was abandoned, there should be tribes that didn't participate!"

"It's strange to say, that eagle beast Yi has never come here since he died. The tribe leader also sent people to ask him for help, but there was no response. Even the tribesmen who went to look for him have disappeared! I suspect that he was killed by Yi!" A phoenix beastman said softly, looking around.

"Also, I saw Elder Feng secretly meeting with him. As for what they said, it was too far away, so I didn't hear it!"

"Elder Feng? Which one is it? Is he here now?"

"Shh! Speak softly. There are many people in the tribe following Elder Feng. Don't let them hear! Look! That's it!"

Bixi and Wushuang followed his gaze and saw a short but sturdy orc with a pointed face and monkey cheeks. Bixi and Wushuang exchanged glances, their thoughts forming. It seemed this Phoenix Tribe was hiding quite a few secrets. They decided to hold off and continue observing.

Over the next few days, Bixi and Wushuang quietly monitored Elder Feng's every move. Meanwhile, the elders were observing Mona and her family. They discovered that Elder Feng often conversed privately with some of the younger orcs in the tribe, and that these orcs seemed to obey his orders.

At the same time, Mona and his family are also working hard to learn the language and culture of the Phoenix tribe, hoping to better integrate into the tribe. In the process, he met some kind Phoenix people and learned more about the tribe's history and traditions from them.

As time went on, Bixi and Wushuang gradually discovered that the Phoenix Tribe's decline wasn't solely due to the Great War. It seemed there were internal conflicts and conspiracies at work. The mysterious Eagle Wing and Elder Feng's erratic behavior left them perplexed and worried.

"Bixi, Wushuang, when you approach Elder Xiafeng today, don't try to be too demanding. Just be natural and see what you can find out. Baichen, Chiyan, and Longqing, the three of you will accompany Mengzi and me to meet the elders and the clan leader. Brother Ying, you, Jinjue, and Qingli will take the three little ones out for training! And you can also bring back some wild animals for a treat!"

"Okay, everyone split up."

Bixi and Wushuang came to the cultivated land, pretended to come in front of Elder Feng and chatted with him.

"Elder Feng, you can't rush planting these plants. You don't need to wait so early. Wait until they sprout and grow branches before taking good care of them!"

"My two brothers, I'm nervous because I saw them sprouting. This is related to the life and death of our clan!"

"It's not that exaggerated, Elder Feng. You guys were still alive and well even when you didn't know how to plant crops. These crops are related to the survival of our clan. You're exaggerating!"

Unparalleled step-by-step induction.

"To be honest, if we hadn't cared about planting before the war, the Northern Continent would be completely barren. Even our own Wutong Forest has withered, and our Phoenix Clan is increasingly short of offspring. Members of our tribe disappear while foraging, and we have no clue where they are. Once planting is successful, our members won't have to forage for food outside, and can stay within the tribe to recuperate and reproduce!"

"Elder Feng, I'm sorry. I didn't expect you to care so much about your people. Who are those missing orcs' subordinates and relatives?"

Elder Feng fell silent, and walked away slowly under the pretext of going to look at another piece of land, unwilling to talk to Wushuang anymore. They noticed that Elder Feng was full of worries about the future of the Phoenix Tribe, but he was evasive about specific issues.

Meanwhile, Bai Chen, Chi Yan, and Long Qing accompanied Mona to meet the elders and the clan leader. The clan leader warmly welcomed them and told them about the Phoenix Tribe's glorious past. However, during the conversation, Mona noticed a hint of caution in the elders' eyes.

"Chief, the planting has yielded results. Several crops have sprouted. As long as we take good care of them, we can wait for the harvest! We will prepare to return to the Sea Tribe in a few days."

An elder immediately stood up and asked in surprise, "Going to the Sea Tribe? Where are you going and what are you doing?"

Seeing the elder's flustered look, Bai Chen guessed in his mind that this must be a spy!

"We are brothers with the Sea King. We came this time to visit Chi Yan's hometown and family. We came at the wrong time and encountered a volcanic eruption, which almost hurt us. But we came at the right time. Seeing your tribe in such a miserable state, we stayed to teach you how to grow crops. Now that you have planted your own crops and they have sprouted, we can retire!"

"You can't leave, and you can't go to the sea clan!" The elder just now strongly objected!

"Elder, why? We just came back with Chi Yan to take a look. Our home is not here!" Mona asked with pretended curiosity.

"You can't leave. Chi Yan is the young patriarch of our tribe. He should stay here to take care of the tribe!" Another elder took a long time to utter these words.

Mona looked at Bai Chen, her eyes signaling him to respond. Bai Chen stepped forward and said, "Chief, elders, do you really want to leave Chi Yan to take care of the tribe?"

"No, I'm not too old to walk. Chi Yan must be with his partner. Elders, Chi Yan is still young. It's a good thing to let him gain more experience outside!" The patriarch answered seriously.

"That's good, we'll wait a few days and then set off for the Sea Clan!" Bai Chen finalized based on the clan leader's words!

"No!" The wise elder who had been silent spoke up.

"Huh? I'm just confused. Are you Phoenix Clan trying to force us to stay?" Long Qing stepped forward, unleashing his mighty power. The shadowy black dragon behind him loomed, and the elders were secretly surprised!

"Are you from the Black Dragon Clan? Why are you with them? This female doll is a Blue Dragon. What's your relationship?"

The wise man was no longer calm. He rushed forward, grabbed Long Qing, and vowed to give an explanation!

"I'm a black dragon, so what? Is that not possible? Mengzi is a blue dragon. You are a wise man, you should have known it long ago!"

"Yes, I already knew this female child was half dragon and half phoenix, based on my observations over the past few days. She also possesses the predictive abilities of my Phoenix Clan. Did you capture my people and extract their heart blood to fuel your cub's transformation?"

"Elder, what are you talking about? The cute cub stopped growing in the mother's womb, and I raised him with my heart's blood. What do you mean by our tribe being captured? And taking our heart's blood?"

The tribe leader turned around in surprise and looked at the wise elder. "Elder, what do you mean? Did one of our tribesmen who went out get captured? Where did you get this news?"

"Okay, now that things have come to this, I won't hide it from you. You two can tell me why our tribesmen disappeared!" Elder Zhi pointed to the other two elders.

"Hahaha! Good, good! You finally found out. Now that you all know, there's nothing left for us to hide. That's right, we took the missing members of our tribe to Lord Yi as a tribute to the Sea Demon God! When the Sea Demon God breaks the seal and unifies the Beast World, he will give the Northern Continent to my Phoenix Clan. What's the big deal about temporarily sacrificing a few members of our tribe? For the future of the Phoenix Clan, you'd better know your time!"

"You two beasts, that's one of our tribe, how could you be so cruel, how dare you!" The tribe leader was hysterical! He slapped him with his palm!

The two elders were not pushovers either, and they raised their hands to meet him. With a bang, the two men separated and stood apart!

"You don't know what's good for you. We didn't want to kill you because we are of the same tribe. But you dared to attack me. Don't blame us!" An elder took out a conch and blew it!

"What do you want to do? Contact the sea tribe?" The patriarch asked in shock when he saw them take out the conch.

"No, it's the Sea Demon God. He will send Master Yi to pick us up soon. As long as you hand over these two dragon remnants, I will spare your lives. Elder Zhi, hand over the Soul of the Earth, and I will also spare your life!"

Mona knew that the restriction of the conch had been lifted and the seal had been reinforced. They could not contact the Sea Demon, but the spies in the sea clan would definitely move. It would depend on the deployment of the Sea King and Chief Mu!

"Lord Yi? That golden eagle? You Phoenix Clan are actually afraid of an eagle. Telling this to others is truly shameful!"

"You female, you know nothing! Lord Yi is incredibly brave and wise, and all the tribes of the Northern Continent have submitted to him. You think the Phoenix Clan is safe and sound now? It's because we're the ones manipulating them, sacrificing a batch of orcs every season. Lord Yi's one move causes our Wutong Forest to wither and die! Do you want to confront him head-on? You fools who overestimate your own abilities!"

At this moment, a gust of wind suddenly blew up, accompanied by a flash of golden light, and a figure appeared in front of everyone. The person who came was Golden Eagle Wing.

"Master Yi, you're here! Here are two remnants of the dragon clan!" The two elders walked towards Yi in a flattering manner, pointing at Long Qing and Mona! Yi's sharp eyes swept around, and finally landed on Long Qing and Mona.

"Are you the remnants of the dragon clan? It seems I'm lucky today. Hand them over to me, and I may consider letting you go." Golden Eagle Wing said in a low voice.

The Phoenix people showed fear on their faces and retreated one after another.

Mona stepped forward and said, "Are you Golden Eagle Wing? You killed so many of our people and even made the Phoenix tribe work for you. Today is the day you die!"

"Little female, where do you get your confidence from? Since you are good-looking, come back with me. I guarantee you will have food and clothing!" Yi laughed loudly.

Bai Chen couldn't stand it any longer and swept his tail across Yi's body, throwing him five or six meters away. He said in surprise, "Hahaha! It's still a nine-tailed fox. Today's harvest is not small!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp cry came out of his mouth, and suddenly, the shouting and crying outside shook the sky.

Meanwhile, Long Ying, Jin Jue, and Qing Li, who had been training outside, returned to the tribe with their three children and several wild beasts. Upon discovering the fierce battle, they joined the fray without taking in the situation.

The addition of Long Ying and the others instantly reversed the situation. They fought side by side with Bai Chen, Chi Yan, and Long Qing to resist the enemy's attacks.

"Bai Chen, what's going on?" Long Ying fought while reuniting with Bai Chen, and protected Mona and the four cubs.

"This is Yi. The two who fought Chi Yan are the traitors of the Phoenix Clan!"

"Get rid of them first, and then we can deal with the rest!" Long Ying looked at the dark mass of orcs. The difference in numbers was too great, so the only way was to capture the leader first.

A dragon roared, and a dragon shadow hung in the air. With a flick of its tail, it swept down a large number of flying beastmen. Seeing someone protecting Mona and the cubs, Long Qing also soared into the sky, joining the dragon shadow on the left and right to attack from both sides.

Seeing this, Golden Eagle Wing knew that he would not succeed today, so he began to retreat. He took off into the air and tried to fly away.

Bai Chen wouldn't let him get away so easily. He chanted an ancient spell, forming seals with his hands. Suddenly, his beast form grew several times larger. A mysterious force shot towards Golden Eagle Yi, and its tail wrapped around him.

Golden Eagle Wing screamed and fell to the ground. He struggled to get up, his eyes filled with resentment and despair.

At this moment, bursts of sharp roars were heard in the distance, and a powerful aura was approaching. Everyone's heart tightened, knowing that the real crisis was about to come.

A dozen winged flying dragon beasts flew in the sky. Mona looked up and felt something was wrong. These were pterosaurs, the overlords of the sky, and the beasts that could inflict heavy damage on the eagle tribe.

"Hahaha! Long live the Sea Demon God! You ants, overestimating yourselves, wait and see how you die!" Yiqi Zhang laughed wildly! Faced with the sudden onslaught of pterosaurs, Long Ying and Long Qing showed no fear. They flashed, transforming into two bolts of lightning and charging straight at the pterosaurs. A fierce aerial battle ensued between the two sides.

Meanwhile, the battle on the ground intensified. Bai Chen, Chi Yan and the others fought desperately with other orcs to protect Mona and the children.

Mona hugged her children tightly, her eyes fixed on the battlefield, and she prayed silently in her heart that the beastly husbands would be safe.

At the critical moment, Mona closed her eyes, concentrated her mind, and used her special ability - animal taming. She took out the jade flute from the space, sat on the ground, closed her eyes, and played it with full concentration.

Listening to the melodious flute, the pterosaurs slowly ceased their attacks, each one in a daze. Seeing this, Long Ying and Long Qing seized the opportunity, each snapping the pterosaur's neck. The dead pterosaurs fell from the sky, slamming to the ground with a thunderous thud, stirring up circles of dust. The battle on the ground gradually gained the upper hand.

Mona opened her eyes, her confidence growing. She continued to play the jade flute, hoping to lighten the burden on everyone. Seeing this, everyone was no longer afraid, but took courage and fought even harder.

Seeing the situation was bad, Yi fled in disgrace while Long Ying and Long Qing were dealing with the pterosaurs. Seeing Yi's escape, the other beasts lost their will to fight and fled as well. Finally, after a fierce battle, Long Ying and Long Qing successfully defeated the pterosaurs!

After the battle, the land was devastated. But the faces of the Phoenix people were filled with hopeful smiles. Chi Yan and the tribe leader tied up the two elders and escorted them up.

"What should we do with these two traitors?" The patriarch's face turned green with anger.
