Jin Kaisi looked at Bai Susu's face and knew that even he was not worthy of Bai Susu, so he didn't dare to act recklessly. His eyes became more determined, and he only wanted to bring the goddess back and save the old beasts in the city...

Suddenly, he noticed many figures moving in the surrounding woods, and heard the sounds of branches being trampled and leaves rustling. Jin Cais remained calm, but his pair of leopard ears appeared and tilted back, listening to the movements around him.

He smelled a strange scent in the air; it was orcs from other tribes approaching.

Bai Susu's beastly husband and Chi Mo also noticed it, and they both stared at the same direction without making any expression.

Mei Wuzhi raised his head and saw that Jin Kaisi and Chi Mo had become alert. He lowered his head and snuggled back into Bai Susu's arms.

Although his power was suppressed, he could sense that the orcs around him had low aura and level, and were no match for Jin Cais at all. He relied on Bai Susu to observe the surroundings silently.

Chi Mo came to Jin Kaisi and lowered his voice: "Young City Lord, there are orcs from other tribes around."

"Yes." Jin Caisi nodded, his demeanor suddenly becoming calm and fierce. He sensed the other party's weak aura and ignored him. "When Bai Susu ascended, the golden pillar of light appeared. The tribes and stray beasts living around here all became aware of the goddess's presence. Many foreign beastmen have secretly followed her along the way. They must be here to gather information."

When he heard they were coming for Bai Susu, Chi Mo had murderous intent in his heart: "Young City Lord, I will go and kill them."

Jin Kaisi pulled Chi Mo back and shook his head. "Chi Mo, don't be impulsive. We need to conserve our energy and rush back to Beast City quickly. We need to avoid further battles and exhausting our energy. We also need to prevent those ferocious stray beasts and mutant beasts from taking advantage."

"But..." Chi Mo hesitated. He liked Bai Susu and didn't want to put her in danger.

Jin Cais added, "These guys around here are weak and no match for us. They won't dare to act recklessly. There's no need to engage them. What we really need to guard against are the stray beasts and mutant beasts."

"Yes." Chi Mo restrained his breath and looked in the direction of the forest. Jin Kaisi patted his shoulder and signaled him to calm down.

In the forest——

Three male apes were moving forward following Bai Susu's scent. Their levels were one, two, and three respectively.

The golden pillar of light that appeared after Bai Susu's promotion attracted the attention of many surrounding tribes. They followed here on the orders of the Beast Leader to find out whether the rumored goddess had appeared.

They cautiously moved forward, and after smelling a powerful masculine scent, a male ape retreated in panic: "Brother, this is the scent of the Young Lord of Beast City. The Young Lord is just ahead. Should we continue forward?"

After a brief silence, the male with the pattern said tremblingly, "It's rumored that the young city lord is ruthless, killing beasts without blinking an eye, and he also has supernatural powers. We can't afford to offend him. His aura is spreading around here, marking his territory. Big brother, we should leave first."

Before the leading male could speak, a two-striped male from the ape tribe spoke up: "But the beast leader said that this divine light revealed the appearance of the goddess. Recently, there have been rumors that the goddess is a female five-striped white tiger. To verify the truth, we came to investigate. If we leave like this, we will be scolded when we return."

The three-striped male in the lead hesitated, then stepped back. "Let me ask you, who's more formidable, the Beast Leader or the Young City Lord?"

The first and second males said without hesitation, "Of course it's the Young City Lord."

The three-striped male nodded, acknowledging that Jin Caisi was the most formidable. He analyzed, "If we enter the territory marked by the Young City Lord, he'll kill us. We'll only be scolded by the Beast Territory if we return. Our lives are paramount right now, so we can't just charge forward without knowing our own limitations."

"Let's go back." The three-striped male turned and was about to leave.

The two-striped male hesitated. "We've been chasing them for so long, and we finally caught up with them. Are they really going to leave like this?"

The three-striped male who was leading the group slapped the other party, feeling somewhat helpless: "The Young City Lord is here, and we know we can't win, so are we still going to die?

Besides, the goddess's story isn't just known to us in the surrounding tribes; the surrounding mutants and stray beasts have also received the news and are secretly following us to investigate. If we don't leave now, we'll be stuck if we run into those guys."

If the young city lord was not here, he could still take the risk to check the situation, but Jin Cais was also here, and he was not willing to sacrifice his life to do such a dangerous thing.

He waved his hand and turned away. "Let the other tribes take the risk and investigate. We'll observe in secret. If it's truly the goddess, the news will spread."

"Big brother is so smart." A male with stripes quickly flattered him.

……

The three male apes were afraid to move forward as they valued their lives. They turned around and left. After they left, a red eagle flew over the stone wall on one side. It stared at the direction where the ape orcs left, its eagle eyes rolling around.

Although it was night, the young male red eagle could still see the surrounding situation clearly at night. He saw that there were many males from other tribes and some low-level stray beasts approaching nearby.

These guys all stopped outside a certain area, and after smelling Jin Cais's scent, they all left in panic.

The male Red Eagle flew down and reported to Jin Caisi: "Young City Lord, as you expected, many orcs from other tribes have come to inquire about the situation. Stray beasts and mutant beasts have also been attracted here. However, after sensing the presence of the Young City Lord, they all left."

"Well, keep observing. If you see anything unusual, make a sound immediately to alert everyone." Jin Cais glanced at the area where he had thrown a few pieces of animal skin before, with a somewhat arrogant look on his face. These guys were indeed frightened by his breath and left temporarily.

Once more and more orcs know of the existence of the goddess, I am afraid that stray beasts and mutated beasts will gather together to snatch the goddess. For the safety of the goddess, we must rush back to the beast city as soon as possible.

Stone House——

Lan You settled the cubs and then sent several three-striped males from the mermaid tribe to guard the stone house and protect the cubs inside. He wore a blue robe that covered his whole body, leaving only a pair of dark blue eyes exposed.

Ever since Bai Susu was controlled by her inner demon and left, he has been taking care of their children in the house every day, waiting for Bai Susu to return. Five days have passed, and there is no news at all.

Even Cang Xiao, who went to look for Bai Susu, had disappeared. He was worried about them, so he arranged the tribal affairs and the cubs every day and went to wait outside the tribe.

He pulled his robe tighter and walked forward with his head down. His white eyelashes trembled slightly. For some reason today, his heart was beating like thunder and he always felt that something bad was going to happen.

Lan You had just left the courtyard when Bai Mang, transformed into a tiger, hurried over and brought Lan You the news: "The Mermaid King, the Fox King, and my brother have returned with the team that came down the mountain."

Upon hearing that Mei Luoli and Bai Po had returned, Lan You's eyes lit up. He looked at Bai Mang expectantly and asked excitedly, "They're back...but what about Su Su? Did you find her?"
