Chapter 163: Chapter 163: The Kidnapped Cub 3
Aunt Hongguo skewered several strings of roast meat on a stick, ready to bring them to Bai Zheng and his group.
Liu Ye suddenly appeared and stopped her, whispering, "Aunt Hongguo, let me go. I want to take something out of the cave..."
Aunt Hongguo glanced at the cave, slightly hesitant, "The Beastmen inside are not to be trifled with. What is it that you want? Perhaps I should go get it for you!"
Liu Ye bit her lip, bowing her head in silence.
Seeing this, Aunt Hongguo didn’t press further, handing the roast meat to Liu Ye and sighing, "Be careful, try not to talk too much inside. Grab what you need and get out quickly!"
Liu Ye received it and nodded quickly.
...
Bai Zheng lay on a Beast Skin, hands folded behind his head, legs casually crossed; he was utterly relaxed.
Li Ni stood tall and said seriously, "Young Master, are you really entrusting the cub of Tiger Valley to that little female Beastman? What if they discover something..."
Bai Zheng sneered dismissively, "You’re a Level 5 Divine Brave Warrior, and I’m a Level 2 Divine Brave Warrior; is there anything in this wilderness worth our concern?" 𝖓𝔬𝔳𝔭𝔲𝔟.𝖈𝖔𝔪
Li Ni disagreed, "But Young Master, the Beastman we just encountered at the cave entrance did not seem like an ordinary one! Although the wilderness is barren, we should still be cautious!"
Bai Zheng rolled over lazily, "Even if he isn’t ordinary, could he possibly be a Level 5 Divine Brave Warrior?"
Though he said this, Li Ni remained vigilant!
He and Bai Zheng were different.
Bai Zheng was the offspring of a kingdom’s ruler, raised in affluence and love.
Before he was assigned to stay with Bai Zheng, he had spent every day in the Duel Arena, fighting countless Beastmen for a single meal!
Once, he underestimated a frail Beastman during a fight and almost died!
Only after awakening his superpower was he taken out of the Duel Arena, underwent some training, and dispatched to protect Bai Zheng.
Having spent a significant time in the Duel Arena, Li Ni knew better not to underestimate anyone, especially seemingly harmless ones; they often turned out to be the deadliest.
Li Ni stood on the side in silence, fully alert to every movement in the cave.
Bai Zheng lazily rolled over again and said to Li Ni with his back facing him, "Do you think, after we kidnapped the cub of the valley chieftain, will he really exchange it for a Gold Crystal Stone? I heard that the Valley Chief of Tiger Valley — Count Wen, is a Level 9 Divine Brave Warrior!"
Li Ni nodded his head, "Of course he will! The Five Great Tribes that possess the Five Elements Crystal Stones are all favored by the Beast God. As long as they possess a pure racial bloodline, regardless of their gender, all their members will awaken their superpower during their coming-of-age ceremony. Their talents are high and their cultivation speed is fast!"
"I’ve heard that Count Wen’s female has awakened her superpower. If it weren’t for their lack of advanced cultivation techniques, Count Wen might have reached the maximum level already!"
While saying this, a hint of envy flashed in Li Ni’s eyes, but he continued.
"The Beast God also placed restrictions on these Five Great Tribes. Their offspring reproduce very slowly. A Beastman can only have one cub in his entire life, occasionally two!"
Bai Zheng seemed to finally understand, "So that’s how it is. I heard from my father back in the kingdom, that Count Wen lost a cub once before. If he doesn’t get this one back, he can forget about having another cub in his lifetime!"
