Chapter 339: Bringing the Fight to Them

Chapter 339: Chapter 339: Bringing the Fight to Them

Once the threat of the Bear Clan was dealt with, the Golden Lion Tribe would be unrivaled in this land.

If Shi Hua stayed here, she could live a peaceful life instead of having to join her on a dangerous adventure.

She gently took Shi Hua’s hand and shook her head. "The place we’re going is too dangerous. You should stay here. Once we’re done, I promise I’ll come back to see you."

Shi Hua’s eyes reddened, and she bit her lip without saying a word.

After a long moment, she said in a low voice, "Sister, if you hadn’t brought me out of that place, I probably would have been locked away in the Female Cave long ago, never to see the light of day again..."

Her voice choked with emotion. "And I certainly wouldn’t be like I am now, with two doting Beast Husbands and such adorable cubs."

Bai Wanwan squeezed her hand. "It was our fate to meet. You’ve helped me a lot, too."

Tears welled in Shi Hua’s eyes. "Sister, thank you! I don’t know what you’re planning to do, but I know you’re different from other females... I... I’ll wait for you here."

A warmth spread through Bai Wanwan’s heart. She reached out and ruffled her hair. "Okay. We’ll all be fine."

She redeemed a few Fertility Pills from her System Space and pressed them into Shi Hua’s palm. "Keep these safe. Next time you mate with your Beast Husbands, take one. I guarantee you’ll be able to have a few more litters."

Shi Hua quickly tried to refuse. "Sister, these are too valuable! I can’t take them."

Bai Wanwan firmly closed Shi Hua’s fingers around the pills. "Take them! When I get back, I expect to hear your cubs call me ’Auntie’."

Shi Hua pressed her lips together, her eyes filled with reluctance to part.

A few more days passed in a flash. Jin Cang Clan Leader, along with several males from the tribe, arrived at Bai Wanwan’s home.

The weather was growing warmer, and Jin Cang Clan Leader had personally brought the males to take care of the cubs that would be left behind.

"Wanwan, don’t you worry. I’ll take good care of the cubs until you return. As for you all..."

He paused. "If things look bad, come back immediately. Your safety is what’s most important."

Bai Wanwan smiled and nodded. "Don’t worry, Father Beast. Zhu Xiu and Jin Yi are both Orange Rank powerhouses. We’ll be fine."

Jin Cang sighed, ultimately deciding not to say anything more.

This concerned the next several hundred years of the Golden Lion Tribe’s development. If there was a chance to solve the Bear Clan problem once and for all, it was something he hoped to see.

"Or maybe you should stay behind and just let Jin Yi and the others go."

Just then, her Beast Husbands walked in from outside. This was a point of contention between her and them as well.

None of them were very keen on her going with them on this dangerous mission.

But Bai Wanwan knew that bringing her along was the one trump card the Bear Clan would never expect.

"Father Beast, rest assured, I won’t be reckless. But my presence can make the Bear Clan lower their guard, making it easier to lure them out."

Jin Cang tried to persuade her for a long time, but seeing she was unyielding, he could only instruct her Beast Husbands to take good care of her and protect her well.

"If the situation turns sour, retreat. With the Talent Power you all possess, escaping shouldn’t be a problem."

After the males agreed, Jin Cang moved on to other instructions.

He walked them part of the way, giving them advice the entire time.

The morning mist had not yet dispersed, and the distant mountain forest was barely visible.

"Father Beast, you should head back,"

Jin Yi said in a low voice. "The cubs... I’ll have to entrust them to you. Also, I offended Mother last time. Please... don’t let her get near the cubs at home."

Jin Cang agreed with a complicated expression. "Don’t worry. As long as I’m here, nothing will happen to the cubs."

These past few days, his Wife had been chattering in his ear, seeking him out more diligently than ever before.

He would have been happy about it, but she just kept listing Wanwan’s supposed crimes, wanting him to punish her.

Bai Wanwan was not only a Holy Female but also a benefactor to the entire Golden Lion Tribe. More importantly, she was the Wife of his own son.

No matter what, he could never make a move against Wanwan.

So, these last few days had not been easy for him.

But he didn’t want to show it and make them worry.

"Father Beast, we’re counting on you then. We will do everything in our power to eliminate this hidden threat for you."

After speaking, Bai Wanwan added another uneasy reminder, "Please, Father Beast, help me pass on a message. The males you’ve arranged to care for my cubs must not trust any other Beastman. If anyone dares to lay a hand on my cubs, I won’t show any mercy when I return, no matter who she is."

The cubs were her bottom line. This was true even though she was grateful for the Clan Leader’s kindness toward her.

But in this world, males were always very good to their own females.

It was inevitable that he might be swayed. She was afraid something irreversible might happen, so she had to state her warning clearly beforehand.

Jin Cang Clan Leader knew her personality. Her words would make him all the more cautious and careful, and he wouldn’t let Jin Yun get near her cubs.

Only then could she leave with peace of mind.

"Alright, I understand. Be careful on your journey. I’ll be waiting in the tribe for your return."

After waving goodbye, Jin Yi shifted into his Golden Lion form and let Bai Wanwan climb onto his back.

"Let’s go!"

Worried about the cubs they’d left behind, the males sped along their way.

Bai Wanwan, in turn, was carried on their backs as they traveled.

It took them only two days to reach the territory of the Bear Clan Tribe.

"Wait, there’s movement up ahead."

The King Cobra was clearing the path ahead. Hearing the noise, he immediately turned back to warn the others.

Yan Lie immediately leaped up and crept into the forest ahead to investigate.

A short while later, he reappeared before them.

"It’s some Bear Clan Beastmen hunting. Should we just kill them?"

Bai Wanwan shook her head. "No killing! We go straight over and let them find us. Pick a fight, but hold back. Don’t kill the males. Seriously injuring them is fine. We just need to make sure they can get back to deliver a message."

As soon as Bai Wanwan said this, the males all understood her meaning.

"You want them to come looking for us?" Xin Feng turned his head to look at her.

"Mhm. To be safe, they’ll send out High Rank Males to scout our situation. And then... we’ll kill them one by one as they come."

"Looks like they’ve spotted us."

As soon as Yan Lie finished speaking, he had already charged forward, clashing with the five or six Bear Clan Beastmen rushing toward them.

Xin Feng and Zhu Xiu immediately joined the fray.

A large swath of trees collapsed in the forest. The battle looked incredibly fierce.

Every one of the Bear Clan Beastmen was severely wounded. But with Bai Wanwan and her Beast Husbands intentionally holding back, they thought they had barely escaped with their lives and scrambled back to the Bear Clan to report.

"This is bad, Clan Leader!"

"What’s with all the panic? Spit it out."

Even after a whole snow season, the Bear Clan Leader still hadn’t gotten over his grievance. He was still plotting how to get even with the Golden Lion Tribe.

"It’s... it’s those Beastmen from the Golden Lion Tribe. They’ve come looking for us."

"Golden Lions?"

The Bear Clan Leader, who had been slouched in his chair, shot upright upon hearing the news. "They still dare to show their faces!"

"There’s only one Golden Lion. The rest are those Foreign Beastmen who severely wounded our tribe’s Beastmen during the last battle with the Golden Lion Clan."

"This is a conflict between us and the Golden Lion Clan! What does it have to do with them? They killed so many of our clansmen last time, and now they dare to come looking for us?!"
