She gave birth to a litter of furry babies, thus extending her life.

"If the Lion Clan is forced to take on all the burdens, the Deer Clan can obtain some protection based on their relationship in the Beast City. If it's just the Dog Clan and our clan, others might not dare to bully us. They could either defeat us one by one or directly label my brother as an accomplice of the male traitor."

Ruan Xiyue thought about it and felt that Qin Yue's analysis made sense; this possibility could not be ruled out.

"So, the day after my brother returned, Chief Luo sent someone to have the young chief's group take away exactly what the guards had said that day, as well as what the female Xi Yue had said."

After hearing this, the chief of the Lion Clan held a meeting of their tribe that very night.

“They decided to migrate here.” Qin Yue looked at Ruan Xiyue and continued, “I feel that this is also related to the fact that Xiyue is expected to become a holy female.”

Qin Ye tightened his grip on the stone spoon, while Long Ze said bluntly, "What kind of class do they have to think so much! Who do they want to send over for a marriage alliance?"

Qin Yue touched his nose and said, "It should be Cong Xian. Because... Cong Xian was almost branded as an exile this time. And they think that Cong Xian got into this mess because he spoke up for my brother. And Cong Xian's uncle, who was the leader who brought the team to our tribe before, told the chief of the Lion Clan tribe that Cong Xian really likes the female Xi Yue."

Long Ze's narrow, phoenix-shaped eyes swept coldly over Qin Ye, and he raised an eyebrow as he asked, "Did you pick this out for the little female?"

Qin Ye opened his eyes and looked at Ruan Xiyue. Ruan Xiyue was also looking at him, waiting for his answer.

Qin Ye thought for a moment and then answered truthfully: "I only promised him that I would help him, but I did not promise on behalf of Xi Yue that I would definitely take him as my beast husband."

Long Ze chuckled, put down the stone bowl, crossed his arms, and said, "You were unhappy when I appeared next to Xi Yue. How come you were so quick to push that little female away?"

Qin Ye lowered his eyes, slowly put down the stone bowl, looked up at Ruan Xiyue, and said seriously, "Because I know that Yue'er doesn't like Cong Xian, at least she has never liked him before."

"Long Ze's existence makes me jealous and afraid because when you look at him, Yue'er, you have genuine affection for him."

Ruan Xiyue chuckled and said, "Don't make it sound so nice. You just want to hear me say that you're the one I like the most, but I won't say it. Also, if you go and find me any more beastmen next time, I'll bring back a whole bunch of them."

Qin Ye's lips, which had just curled into a smile, drooped when he heard the last sentence. His voice was low and somewhat resentful: "Okay, I understand."

Ruan Xiyue then looked at Qin Yue, who seemed somewhat uneasy, and asked, "Wasn't Cong Xian missing? Has he been found?"

Qin Yue shook his head and said, "If he's just simply missing, that's fine. But what if he was taken away by the wandering orcs..."

Qin Yue glanced at Qin Ye and Long Ze, then quickly lowered his head to eat, saying nothing more.

Ruan Xiyue frowned and asked, "What would a wandering orc do to hurt him?"

Long Ze glanced at Qin Ye, who was staring at Ruan Xiyue, and scoffed, saying, "Do you need me to take a look? Some wandering beastmen aren't just interested in females; some are even branded as exiled because they're interested in males!"

Qin Ye pursed his lips and said, "Don't go. You're no longer a wandering beastman. If they see that the mark on your body is gone, they'll target Xi Yue."

Long Ze frowned, narrowing his long, phoenix-shaped eyes, his entire aura becoming even more imposing: "They wouldn't dare."

Qin Ye raised his hand to stop them: "Too many ants can kill an elephant. There are too many of them. Let me take some prey and ask them."

Qin Ye went to negotiate relatively early, but even so, some wandering beastmen were already showing signs of wanting to harm Cong Xian. If Cong Xian hadn't possessed Yellow-Rank strength, he probably would have already met with misfortune.

Qin Ye told Cong Xian about the Lion Clan's plans. Cong Xian smiled bitterly and said, "I've really suffered because of this. Not only was I almost exiled, but I was also targeted by those disgusting wandering orcs."

He narrowed his eyes, a flash of ferocity crossing his gaze, and said, "If they dare to target this area, I don't care what your relationship with them is, I will kill them."

Qin Ye glanced at Cong Xian and said, "Don't try to be fierce in front of me. My relationship with them isn't as good as you think. I've only sold them a few pieces of information; it's mutually beneficial. If they dare to target the Cheetah Tribe, you don't need to tell me. No matter how many they come, I will do my best to kill them."

"How is Xi Yue now?" Cong Xian asked.

Qin Ye pursed his lips and said, "She's almost a month pregnant now, and she'll probably give birth when the beast tide comes in winter."

Cong Xian frowned: "Regardless of whether I become Cheng Xiyue's female beast husband in the future, I have to say something to you. Aren't you being a little disregard for her health by making her pregnant so frequently?"

Qin Ye pursed his lips; he couldn't refute those words. However, in the beastman world, very few females could become pregnant immediately after giving birth. Although some did, they were extremely rare. He hadn't thought that much about it at the time. After all, Xi Yue's test clearly showed only low fertility.

"This time it was indeed my oversight due to my lack of knowledge." Qin Ye didn't intend to dwell on Ruan Xiyue's topic with Cong Xian any longer, so he changed the subject: "So, are you planning to stay in the Cheetah Tribe or go to meet the migrating Lion Tribe?"

Cong Xian glared at Qin Ye and said, "You really are a 'use and discard' type! But... I'd better go and meet up with the Lion Clan first. Many of the cubs haven't grown up yet, and they're still on their way to migrate... Sigh—but I need to check out the place you've chosen for the Lion Clan first."

Qin Ye didn't say much, and took Cong Xian to take a look at an open space adjacent to the Cheetah Tribe.

Cong Xian frowned slightly and said, "This area is a plain..."

Qin Ye scoffed, "Your clan leader himself requested a plain as clan territory. Besides, I don't believe you're unaware of his plans."

"When it comes time to build a beast city, it's definitely not as safe as building it in the plains, especially in the mountainous region. Your chieftain really has a lot of faith in my little female!"

“The Deer Clan’s original Holy Female was a Green-rank. And Xi Yue, a female, is now a Blue-rank ability user. If she’s not pregnant, she can be easily raised with enough beast cores, and there shouldn’t be any problems!” Cong Xian glanced at Qin Ye.

Qin Ye chuckled and said, "I'll find more energy fruits for Xi Yue. There's no need for you to be sarcastic."

Cong Xian pursed her lips and reminded him, "You said you would help me, you won't go back on your word, right?"

Qin Ye looked coldly at Cong Xian and said, "I've already helped. I told Xi Yue about it. Besides, rescuing you from the wandering beastmen, doesn't that count as helping?"
