I've been transported to the orc continent.

Bai Ling couldn't help but smile, but he tried hard to suppress it: "I'm going to the Great River Tribe to exchange things. Can we go together? My father and father don't agree to me going alone. If we can go together, maybe they will agree."

God knows how grateful he was for this opportunity. Although he and Yue were from the same tribe, they had little interaction. Moreover, Yue was very aloof and indifferent to everyone. Even if Bai Ling wanted to get close to him, she couldn't.

Now that Yue is going to the Great River Tribe, and he happens to be going to the Great River Tribe too, isn't this a golden opportunity!

Bai Ling, fearing that Yue would refuse, continued, "Among the things the Great River Tribe gave me, there was a type of seed called wheat, which is a very precious seed."

Yue hadn't expected it to be like this. He nodded and said, "Of course."

Bai Ling could no longer suppress his smile. He looked at Yue Huanxi and said, "Well, I'll go back and tell my father and father-in-law that we'll set off tomorrow."

As the two were talking, Xiao came out of the cave. He saw Bai Ling and Yue sitting together, so he ran over and asked, "What are you talking about here? Are you going to catch fish together? Ling, I heard from Father that your fish soup is especially delicious. It's so delicious that the little ones licked the bowl clean. Let's go catch fish together again, and this time we'll catch a lot to make fish soup."

Bai Ling said, "I don't have time to catch fish. I'm going to the Great River Tribe with Yue tomorrow."

Xiao laughed and said, "Then we'll go fishing together when you come back."

Bai Ling got up before dawn. The people of the Dahe tribe were setting off early in the morning, and he had to go with them. Fortunately, he had packed everything he needed to bring the night before. After washing up, he just needed to take his basket and go to the square to meet up.

Feng and Cang also got up. This was their son's first time going on a long trip, so of course they were worried. But their son had grown up and was no longer a little kid who needed to be watched over all the time. As fathers, they couldn't keep their children tied to their sides; they had to let go and let them go out and make their own way.

Feng kept reminding his son, "Ling, stay close to the other orcs on the road and never stray from the group. If anything happens, be sure to speak up and don't be shy."

Cang patted his partner's shoulder and laughed, "It's alright. Several orcs are going to the Great River Tribe with us this time. They'll take care of Ling."

Yes, there are several orcs going to the Great River Tribe together this time. They are all orcs born in the Great River Tribe, and they have settled in the High Tree Tribe with their partners. They also want to go back to their tribe.

The journey that Bai Ling envisioned, where she and Yue would spend time alone together, simply did not exist.

Everyone arrived quickly, and Zhan, the chief of the Gaoshu tribe, also came over. He and Li, the chief of the Dahe tribe, hugged each other and said goodbye. Li shouted, and the beastmen all found places to transform into their beast forms.

Bai Ling was no exception. He walked behind a big tree and transformed into a white lion.

Bai Ling's beast form is also very beautiful, with a smooth body and long limbs. Its snow-white fur is fluffy and soft, and its big black eyes are as beautiful as black grapes. Its steps are light as if it is dancing, and it has a more elegant feel than the roughness of the beastmen.

Many beastmen looked over, including Yue.

Bai Ling saw a hint of amazement in Yue's eyes, and her dark, grape-like eyes shone even brighter.

God knows how much effort he put in for this moment!

Ever since meeting Yue, Bai Ling has been practicing how to walk gracefully in her beast form, what expressions are cuter, and how much to purse the corners of her mouth to make her more approachable.

He had to make a good impression on Yue. Even if it wasn't amazing, he had to make Yue think that his beast form was pretty good.

It seems he did the right thing. Although Yue only glanced at him a few times before looking away, the amazement and admiration in her eyes were undeniable.

Bai Ling felt like a little man was clenching his fist and rolling around inside him; he had made the absolutely right move.

Bai Ling walked over, and Cang tied the basket to his son's back. Feng stood in front of his son's head and carefully instructed him: "You must remember what your father and I told you. Don't run too fast or too slow on the road. If anything happens, don't be embarrassed. Just ask people."

Bai Ling rubbed his big head against his father's palm and made a "gurgling" sound in his throat to indicate that he understood.

Feng reluctantly let go of his hand, forcing a smile: "Alright, Father won't say anything more. Be careful on the road. Father will cook you something delicious when you come back."

Bai Ling rubbed his big head against his father again. He heard howls all around him, and Bai Ling also roared to the sky before running out after the other orcs.

After a while, he turned around and saw that his father was still standing there, waving at him.

Orcs aren't slow, but they're definitely not running at full speed.

The journey from Gaoshu Tribe to Dahe Tribe is quite long, passing through the territory of Hongyan Tribe. Such a distance is not suitable for running at full speed; maintaining a steady pace and conserving energy is the most important thing.

Besides the adults, there was also a little cub in the group.

Lan is a good friend of Feng, and his partner Gua is from the Dahe tribe. This year, they have plenty of food and time, so the two have decided to stay at the Dahe tribe for a few days.

With the little one around, the group stopped quite often along the way. The adults could endure hunger and thirst, but the little one couldn't.

When they arrived, the orcs of the Great River Tribe didn't stop working except for lunch. Now, on their way back, in just one morning, Chief Li of the Great River Tribe stopped three times to take care of Lan and Gua's cubs.

In the orc world, caring for cubs is an instinct ingrained in the orc genes. Even if they are not related by blood, or even from the same tribe, or have never met before, as long as there are cubs, adult orcs will instinctively take care of them.

Moreover, in the orc world, harming cubs is the most unforgivable sin and the only crime punishable by death.

If an orc commits any other crime, the most serious consequence is expulsion from the tribe. But if they intentionally kill a cub, they will be killed without mercy.

This is simply because orc cubs are so precious.

Just like when Bai Ling hadn't regained his memories, he was a silly little fool who couldn't say or do anything and knew nothing. Even though he was such a silly little cub, no one in the tribe disliked him. His father could entrust him to the old beastman guarding the tribe and go out to hunt and gather.

In the tribe, the best things are first given to families with young cubs. Good things like honey are simply untouched by orcs without young offspring. If someone in the tribe makes something delicious, an adult orc who asks for it might be laughed at and scolded, but a cub who asks will certainly not be scolded and will even get the best part.
