CHAPTER 125: CHAPTER 117 YANXIANG TRIBE_1

"Black Tiger City?" Hu Hui shook his head. "Never heard of it. But the Yanxiang Tribe has arrived."

Lord Wang had expressly told him to keep an eye on the Yanxiang Tribe. So, it was all for this little female, huh.

Dongchi and Nan Mo dismounted from Tai Seng’s back. She Ying carried the little female cub back inside Dark Sun Lake to find females to nurture her.

Following She Wang, Si Yan looked around as she walked.

The Yanxiang Tribe, huh...

After the Yanxiang Tribe arrived near Dark Sun Lake, they couldn’t gain entry.

The weather was getting hotter, and the village chief was becoming increasingly anxious.

"What should we do? There are no Red Crystal Beastmen in the village. We simply don’t have the qualifications to compete with other tribes for Dark Sun Lake."

"If only Tai Seng were here. If Tai Seng were here, at least we could have a say."

In the Yanxiang Tribe, the Wolf Clan Beastmen and bear Beastmen lived together.

Lang Xin had occupied the best piece of territory, and her males took care of her meticulously.

"Lang You, has the Delusional Domain’s Lord returned?" Lang Xin asked anxiously.

Lang You was growing a bit impatient internally, but his face showed none of it.

He approached, fawning like a dog. "Mistress, people outside say the Delusional Domain’s Lord has already returned, and this time he’s brought back a female with him."

"A female?!" Lang Xin suddenly stood up. "A female? How is that possible? Wasn’t it said that the Delusional Domain’s Lord is indifferent to females and doesn’t fancy any of them?"

Lang You kept silent.

"Does the Delusional Domain’s Lord have a mate totem on his body?"

"No one has seen it," Lang You replied. "Probably not."

"What does that female look like?"

"It is said she is both thin and ugly," Lang You reported.

Lang Xin thought for a moment, then shook her head. "No, it’s not possible. A personage like the Delusional Domain’s Lord would not fancy such worthless trash."

"Only me." Lang Xin laughed lasciviously. "Naughty and wanton. That’s what he’ll like."

After Si Yan arrived at Dark Sun Lake, Hu Hui took her to the place he had arranged.

"Warrior, you have to tell me, how did you become our Lady?"

Hu Hui, who had only had a brief conversation with She Ying and was thrilled to finally get some gossip, urged, "Quickly tell me, what’s the deal between you and our Lord?"

Si Yan smiled and asked, "Are there only people from the Delusional Domain inside Dark Sun Lake now?"

Hu Hui replied, "Yes, the Lord hasn’t said anything, so how could he allow outsiders in? But... actually, it’s not that simple."

Si Yan looked curiously at Hu Hui, who explained, "Our Delusional Domain, aside from the Lord, has a group of elders in charge. And among our elders, many hail from the Fox Clan."

"The Fox Clan?"

Hu Hui continued, "You see, the Yanxiang Tribe is mainly composed of Wolf Clan Beastmen and bear Beastmen. The Delusional Domain is somewhat similar, mainly composed of snake Beastmen and Fox Clan Beastmen. And our Fox Clan is divided into the White Fox Clan and the Grey Fox Clan. Many of our elders are from the White Fox Clan."

Hu Hui sighed. "Many of them split from the original White Fox Clan, so they are somewhat inclined toward their own people. Now, those White Fox elders are striving to help the White Fox Clan enter Dark Sun Lake."

Dark Sun Lake was a coveted prize, a natural sanctuary. With She Wang maintaining order, no one dared to act recklessly. However, everyone was trying their own unique methods to get in.

Hu Hui said, "The Lord asked me to look after the Yanxiang Tribe a long time ago." Though he did say they needn’t come in.

Hu Hui smiled. "Lady, do you want to go see the Yanxiang Tribe?"

Behind Si Yan, Tai Seng’s tail couldn’t stop wagging.

Although his relations with his mother’s side of the family in the tribe were not that good, there were many acquaintances in the Yanxiang Tribe that Tai Seng was eager to greet.

Si Yan said, amused, "Tai Seng, if you want to go, then go and say hello."

The big fellow exclaimed excitedly, "Si Yan, thank you!"

Tai Seng had also tried to call her Mistress a few times, but Si Yan had firmly refused every time.

Tai Seng turned around and with a leap, he was on his way to the Yanxiang Tribe.

Just after Tai Seng left, Si Yan suddenly remembered something. She had already severed ties with the Yanxiang Tribe, and she seemed to have forgotten to tell Tai Seng.

"Tai Seng! It’s Tai Seng!!!"

Upon seeing Tai Seng, a crowd of Beastmen from the Yanxiang Tribe surrounded him.

The Beastmen of the Yanxiang Tribe, who had endured much frustration outside Dark Sun Lake, were very enthusiastic to see Tai Seng.

"Tai Seng, where have you been?"

"We really missed you a lot."

Tai Seng was somewhat taken aback by the warmth with which the tribe’s people surrounded him.

"Tai Seng, without you here, we’ve had it rough! So pitiable! Even weaker Beastmen bullied our tribe."

"Now that you’re back, our tribe will be considered one with a Red Crystal Beastman again, and they won’t be able to look down on us."

Tai Seng finally made his way out of the eager cluster of Yanxiang Tribe Beastmen. He was then met by Lang Feng, a wretched-looking Beastman, walking towards him.

Lang Feng approached with large strides, a somewhat insincere smile on his face. "Tai Seng, you’re back, huh? Where’s your Mistress?"

"Si Yan?" At the mention of her name, Tai Seng smiled tenderly. "She’s with me."

"With you?" Lang Feng looked behind Tai Seng but didn’t see Si Yan. "Is she still alive?"

A sleazy smile spread over Lang Feng’s face. "Has she seen the light and decided to return to the tribe?"

Lang Feng continued, "So, your family has come back. Life outside wasn’t good, was it?"

Tai Seng scratched his head. "Indeed, we wasted a bit of time, but it’s not a big problem."

Lang Feng’s smile widened. "Well then, that’s good. Now that you’ve returned, you should obediently accept your fate and choose a few more Beast Husbands."

Tai Seng furrowed his brow slightly, not understanding the meaning behind Lang Feng’s words.

"Tai Seng." A middle-aged female called out to him.

Tai Seng looked over and saw it was Lang Rong.

"Come with me."

Even though Tai Seng didn’t like this mother of his, their blood connection compelled him to follow.

Lang Rong led Tai Seng to a corner, while the nosy Beastmen of the Yanxiang Tribe peeked from a distance.

In front of Lang Rong, Tai Seng was no longer as at ease as he was with Si Yan. Even though the female before him was his own biological mother, he still felt very oppressed.

Lang Rong said, "Tai Seng, that female Si Yan is selfish and willful. She really isn’t a suitable choice for a Mistress."

"Now that you have returned, you should break the Guardian Beast contract with her."

Tai Seng looked up at his mother in shock.

"Mother, what are you saying?"

"I’m telling you to break the Guardian Beast contract. After all, you’re just a Guardian Beast, aren’t you? Why stoop to being such a lowly creature? Break your guardian relationship with Si Yan, return to the Yanxiang Tribe, and come back to your mother’s home. This home is still your home."

Ever since Tai Seng left, Lang Rong’s family’s hunting capabilities had drastically diminished. Fresh meat had become a rare treat for her.

The Raging Flame Days were fast approaching, and if they couldn’t secure Tai Seng, their lives would become even more difficult.

Tai Seng’s face instantly turned red with anger.

His hands clenched into fists, the joy of returning to the tribe completely gone.

"How could I break the Guardian Beast contract with Si Yan? I love her so much; I’m willing to protect her for a lifetime!

Mother, I don’t expect you to understand me, nor do I expect your support.

No matter how strained our relationship is, I didn’t want to say anything too harsh.

But, I still have to say this—

Stop dreaming! What kind of home is that ’home’ of yours? I will never, under any circumstances, go back there."
