And on the other side-

Bai Susu didn't dare to neglect it at all. She took out some cloth strips from her space and tied them to a flammable rotten wood. She held the stick and looked at the white fox cub: "Cub, it's up to you."

The white fox cub was also smart. When Bai Susu handed the stick over, it exhaled a ball of fire and instantly ignited the stick. She looked at Lan You and Mei Wuzhi in front of her and said, "It's done. Come back quickly!"

The two beast husbands quickly returned to her side, and she handed the rotten wooden stick to Mei Wuzhi who was standing beside her. He used all his strength to throw the burning stick at the mutant beast.

The other party caught fire instantly, and all its tentacles quickly retracted. The mutant beast struggled in the raging fire, howling in fear and retreating, and its skin was immediately burned by the fire.

This time, his wound did not heal.

The mutant beast was afraid of fire and suddenly lost all its strength. It knelt on its knees and began to crawl into the woods, trying to find water. Seeing this, Mei Wuzhi was afraid that the fire would spread and cause a forest fire.

He took the machete from Lan You's hand and swung it vigorously towards the mutant beast. The mutant beast's head fell off instantly...

***

Once the mutant beast died, all the beastmen breathed a sigh of relief. Mei Wuzhi held Bai Susu in his arms and asked, "Susu, are you hurt?"

She shook her head: "I'm fine, just a few scrapes."

"Susu!" Immediately afterwards, a white figure flashed past her, and she fell into a warm embrace. Bai Po hugged her tightly, and he was still in the form of a white tiger, his whole body soft.

Bai Po leaned his head on her shoulder, feeling a little depressed: "Susu, it's all because I'm too weak to protect you."

Bai Po's eyes moistened as he embraced Bai Susu. The other two beastmen also blamed themselves. Bai Susu patted him on the back and said, "Come on, you are the Beast King of the White Tiger Tribe after all. Don't cry so easily. You have tried your best to protect me. This mutant beast has unique abilities. It's normal that you are no match for it."

They themselves are also powerful beast kings. Compared with other orcs at a lower stage, they are also powerful and unattainable.

They have been going through a lot recently, and they have to deal with all the dangers they encounter along the way. They are constantly running around, and they are exhausted. It is indeed difficult for them to confront the mutant beast with SS level strength in their most tired state.

"Let's go find everyone." Bai Susu said, and Bai Po immediately lowered his body and let her sit on it.

After reuniting with everyone, A Yao and A Ya came to ask about her condition. Seeing that she was not seriously injured, everyone felt relieved.

Bai Susu leaned in Bai Po's arms, feeling exhausted. She wanted to rest for a while. She asked the system, "System, what's the situation around here? Is it safe?"

[There are no traces of stray beasts or mutant beasts around here. It is safe now. The host can rest properly.]

After the system said this, she looked at the beastmen and said, "Everyone was frightened just now, and many of the females and cubs are tired. Let's rest for a while before continuing on our journey."

"Okay." Mei Wuzhi was the first to respond. Bai Po and Lan You looked at each other, and then stood up and chose the males in their tribe to patrol the area.

After being attacked by the mutant beast this time, Bai Susu was quite frightened. She felt a little unwell and finally leaned in Mei Wuzhi's arms to rest. She fell asleep after a while.

A Yao glanced sideways at Wuji who was sitting alone beside him. He was looking in one direction with a deep and melancholy gaze. He looked lonely and his eyes were full of sadness.

She stood up and walked towards Wuji, but a male from the merman tribe stopped her and said, "Ayao, don't go over there. It's dangerous."

The male mermaid looked warily in Wuji's direction, worried that Ayao would get hurt again if she went over. Ayao brushed his hand away and said, "Thank you for your concern, but it's okay. That snake beast is different from other snake beasts."

A Yao began to speak for Wuji, and the look in her eyes when she looked at him was no longer filled with disgust and indifference.

This time, she was no longer afraid of him. Wuji had saved her time and again and had never really hurt her. Perhaps he was not as vicious as the other snake beasts in the rumors.

Seeing A Yao approaching, the male mermaid wanted to hold her back, but Lan You patted the male's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, let her go."

When the male heard what the king said, he had no choice but to retreat.

Lan You glanced in the direction of Wuji, and the coldness and vigilance in his eyes faded away. The snake beast had just helped him a lot and helped save his people. He could feel that the snake beast Wuji had no ill intentions.

He glanced at A Yao and let her get closer to Wuji. A Yao walked to Wuji and looked at his injuries. There were bite marks on his wrists and abdomen, and there was a hole the size of a fist on his leg, which was bleeding continuously.

He looked ahead expressionlessly, his eyes dim and lifeless, and just let the blood flow. She tried to get closer to Wuji, and found that he did not drive her away. She used the medicine she got from the beast witch to clean his wound.

Throughout the entire process, he stared blankly ahead without even glancing at her. A-Yao couldn't help but say, "Um... Wuji, thank you for saving me."

"Yeah." He just responded indifferently.

A-Yao looked at his wounded body and asked, "You're seriously injured. Does it hurt?"

As soon as he asked the question, A Yao regretted it. His skin was broken and so much blood was flowing, it must be painful.

She asked a stupid question.

At this time, Wuji turned around and looked at her, his eyes lonely and pitiful, handsome and miserable. He looked at Ayao sincerely: "It hurts, it hurts a lot..."

Ah Yao was shocked when she saw tears in Wuji's eyes. For a moment, she felt sorry for Wuji. She was stunned and didn't know what to say. She lowered her head and moved her hands more gently: "Then, then I will be gentler, so you won't feel any pain."

She lowered her eyes and carefully wiped Wuji's wound. Wuji lowered his eyes and looked at her gently, with a smile gradually appearing in his eyes.

After A-Yao treated Wuji's wound, he stood up and walked down the hillside. She quickly grabbed him and asked, "Where are you going?"

He lowered his eyes, feeling depressed: "Go and see my people."

Wuji felt that the surroundings were safe, so he walked down the hillside to the dead tribesmen. The few remaining tribesmen and beast cubs, after encountering the mutated beast today, all...

He laid out the bodies of his people with an expressionless face, and then began to dig a hole in the ground nearby with his bare hands.

His expression was cold, and there was no emotion in his eyes, but they were red. He lowered his eyes to hide all his thoughts.

All his people were dead, and he was the only one left...

Seeing Wuji like this, Ayao felt an inexplicable pain in her heart. She covered her chest, as if there was a breath stuck in her heart, and she couldn't breathe. What was wrong with her? Why did she feel so uncomfortable seeing Wuji like this?

Seeing this, the deer standing nearby couldn't help but sigh, "This snake beast Wuji is so pitiful. He was looking for a habitat with some old beasts and cubs, but they were all killed by the mutant beast. Now, apart from those stray beasts, he is the only one left in the snake tribe. A snake tribe that was once a large tribe is now on the verge of extinction."

"He must be feeling very sad right now."

A Yao felt complicated after hearing what Lu Meidan said. Finally, Lu Meidan stood up and went to Wuji, and helped Wuji dig a hole with his bare hands to bury his tribesmen.

Wuji glanced at him with a cold expression. Lu Budan was a little scared and shuddered: "Don't look at me like that. I don't mean any harm. You saved me, and I just want to do something to repay you."

Wuji lowered his eyes, dug a hole silently, and acquiesced.

Seeing this, A Yao also went down to help. Wuji looked up and saw her coming, with a hint of surprise in his eyes: "You... don't you hate snake beasts? Why..."

Ah Yao said seriously, "I do hate snake beasts... but that was before. I hated those snake beasts that did evil things. Obviously, you are not..."

Now she doesn't hate him so much.

A Yao glanced at me and said, "You've saved me so many times. I don't know what else I can do for you, but now I just want to help you."

Not long after, Bai Po and Lan You saw this and also brought some of their tribesmen to help. Although they hated the snake beast, they could also distinguish between good and bad. Since this snake beast Wuji helped them, they would naturally help him as well...

***

After dealing with all the corpses of the snake orcs, Wuji curled up on the side without saying a word, his eyes lonely and expressionless, he looked lifeless, with no hope in his heart.

A Yao couldn't help but glance at him a few more times, secretly observing his situation.

Half an hour later——

Mei Wuzhi said, "We should continue on our journey, otherwise it will be dangerous when it gets dark."

Everyone stood up in unison. Bai Susu was held by Lan You, while Bai Po stayed by the side with the cub. Mei Wuzhi led the way. When they were about to leave, the male elk rushed over and stopped them: "Wait a minute."

Lan You looked at Lu Mo, a trace of coldness on his face: "What are you going to do?"
