Chapter 567: Chapter 568 Consideration
Ji Hu’s eyes were somewhat moist, his face filled with wrinkles, and his eyelids sagged slightly, but his gaze was exceptionally deep.
He had come out tonight intending to publicly ask the city lord why he did not keep his word, wanting to drive their Antelope Clan away.
But when he actually sat here, he no longer had the courage to ask, because what would it achieve even if he did?
Although the Antelope Clan had a large population, most of them were unable to fight back, and they were no match for the Beast Soldiers. If Keli became impatient, they could be driven out even faster!
The Antelope Tribe was physically weak, unfit for hunting, and the small tribes in the Wilderness that could trade salt with them had almost been annihilated in the wrath of the mountain god. Upper Beast City didn’t lack salt now, so how should they survive in this dangerous forest?
Su Tang’s words undoubtedly brought him a glimmer of light, giving him a sense of hope.
Ji Hu knew about the Weasel Tribe in the Wilderness. They were a physically weak race like them, often eating fruits to survive.
Before the last winter came, he knew that some of the Weasel Tribe had come to Upper Beast City for shelter, but they were rejected. He was wondering why the female cubs of the tribe had disappeared, it turns out they had gone to a good place like Paradise.
Ji Hu was confident that their Antelope Clan had a talent for finding salt that was even better than the Weasel Clan. If Paradise could accept the Weasel Clan, then it certainly could accept their Antelope Clan too!
...
Back in the treehouse, Su Tang laid in Gaiyin’s arms and asked softly.
"Ayin, do you think we should accept the Antelope Tribe?"
The tribe did not lack salt. The salt they refined from seawater was more than enough for them.
And if they were short on people, they weren’t really. Paradise had a population sufficient for basic survival needs, but to look at the bigger picture, they would need to bring in some more people.
But they can’t just bring anyone. They had to determine their character, their conduct. Otherwise, if they end up causing trouble in the Paradise, that would be truly troublesome.
Gaiyin pondered, "There’s no hurry. We may have to stay in Upper Beast City for a few more days. Let’s observe them more. If there’s no problem, we can show them the way when we leave. This way, they can get to Paradise in time for spring farming. What do you think?"
Su Tang nodded in strong agreement, "Great, let’s do as you say. Tomorrow, I’ll tell the Antelope tribe leader that we’ll consider it for two more days and give him an answer before we leave."
Gaiyin hummed in acknowledgement and placed a soft kiss on Su Tang’s forehead, murmuring lowly, "Sleep now."
Su Tang also reached out to hug Gaiyin loosely. Both of them closed their eyes and did nothing more extreme.
She had been in the Beast World for nearly a year now. During the winter, she tried to do "that" with the big tiger, but she could not bear it.
The beastmen’s vigor and physique were too strong. Not even the females of the Beast World Continent could bear it, not to mention the delicate Su Tang.
They tried it tentatively, and without going all the way, Su Tang was in pain all day, unable to get out of bed.
Gaiyin was frightened. He promised Su Tang that until her body was remodeled, he would never touch her again!
So since then, he has always shown restraint. When he couldn’t stand it anymore, he would go out and vent by himself, with impressive self-control.
Su Tang felt somewhat guilty in her heart, but mostly she was touched. With such a husband, what more could she ask for?
"Ayin!"
"Hmm?"
"I love you!"
"Mm."
"I said I love you!"
"I love you too."
