Chapter 116: Clearing the Wrongdoing
e sea, which had been calm before, began to churn and swell."You guys get into the hold and find a place to hide. If you're found by the skeletons on the ghost ship, don't blame us for not being able...The chieftain didn't buy the warmth, turning his head to look at the Shaman. He trusted the Shaman's judgment, and got a nod in response. Only then did he look at Ripples who remained calm throughout, and said with some difficulty:
"Ripple Messenger, is it because you knew about Wei's injustice that you saved Warmth and sent her back"
There seems to be a hint of resentment in the language.
The ripples looked at the elderly Tiger Clan leader Lin, and said indifferently:
"I, guided by the Beast God, saved Warmth. She was close to death, her life and that of her unborn child hanging by a thread. It was the Beast God who bestowed upon me the power to save them both."
As she spoke, the beast mark between her brows flashed, and a surge of powerful energy struck Lin. Even Wu, standing beside him, was affected by the wave.
"Put away your complaints, whelp. Once the child is born, everyone will know the truth naturally. Do you think what you and your son have done can hide from the Beast God"
"The messenger calmed down, Lin was just too surprised, so he couldn't accept it for a moment."
The shaman of the Tiger tribe, a genderless beastman, spoke up at this moment, effectively relieving the chieftain of his predicament. He simply called out "Lin" without addressing him as chieftain, clearly indicating he had his own judgment on the matter.
The ripples still gave the tiger tribe shaman a few points of face, withdrawing the pressure on Lin's power. Then it said to the shaman:
"I have no intention of interfering in the affairs of TigerClan. I only brought back the she-cat who saved me. The true purpose of my visit was to spread new discoveries about food, methods for long-term preservation, and various ways to make new foods."
Wu Dian nodded, while Clan Leader Lin lowered his eyes.
Ripple didn't even care about the other person's reaction; they were just an idiot.
"I'll arrange for her to stay with me in a warm place until the cubs are born."
The witch spoke directly.
"Good! Please, Shaman, arrange for someone suitable to go find my followers. They need to learn how to preserve food for the long term. The rainy season is about to begin, and that's the most important thing."
Ripple didn't dwell on the warm things anymore, directly shifting the topic to long-term food preservation.
"I understand! The Tiger Clan primarily eats meat. If the hunted meat can be stored for three months during the rainy season without spoiling, it will be enough to sustain the clan throughout the winter."
"It should be fine. You shouldn't just store meat, but also appropriately store some edible green plants."
"Yes, females still prefer to eat fruits and "
Ripple and Wu discussed for half an hour how to get through the rainy season, and then left the chief's cave under the lead of a female tiger.
And warmth, following the witch, went directly to the witch's dwelling. Meanwhile, Qitian had been waiting outside for a long time until she was sure it was Warmth that arrived. Only then did a smile appear on her face.
After both the shaman and Ripple left, Chief Lin summoned a male tiger from his tribe and secretly sent him away to inform Xiao to avoid returning to the tribe for a short period.
Lin sat slumped in the cave, his face growing increasingly gaunt. He had initially intended to pass on the position of Tiger Clan leader to Xiao, but Xiao, consumed by envy for Wei's abilities and prestige, and harboring resentment for him taking away the warmth of love, secretly orchestrated those events.
At first, Lin didn't know anything. It wasn't until Warmth confirmed her pregnancy and Xiao showed abnormal behavior that he realized something was wrong. Especially after Warmth left the tribe alone, he became certain of his suspicions. After repeatedly questioning Xiao, he finally confessed to framing Wei.
When Lin first knew that Wen was missing and hadn't been found, he knew this wouldn't end well. His prediction came true.
But Xiao is his only child, and his partner has already left him. He only has Xiao now, and he doesn't want anything to happen to him, even if he did something wrong.
On the other side, Warmth found comfort and security living with Wu. Every day, she counted down to the birth of her cubs. Warmth also told Qitian about her experiences after leaving the tribe, then touched her stomach with some complexity and said:
Both the Shaman and the Spirit Speaker have seen it, I'm carrying a white tiger cub. It couldn't possibly be Wei's—he never forced me! I must clear Wei's name. He shouldn't leave the Tiger Clan, it's Xiao who should go!
"Are you sure"
Although sunny weather had already been guessed, I still wanted to confirm it.
"On a clear day, I believe the shaman and the messengers have no need to deceive me. When the young one is born, the tribe will know who is right and who is wrong."
Warmly holding onto Qitian's hand, he said.
"What should we do after the child is born"
Let me think about it.
Warmth lowered her eyes and said softly.
"Oh!"
Qīngtiān sighed and said no more.
Then the TigerClan tribe buzzed with activity, the she-cats gathering to process the fresh meat in an effort to store enough to last through the rain season. Talk of the warm return gradually faded away, and whispers began to circulate among the Clanmates. Coupled with Hawkwing's continued absence, they started to form their own theories.
As the first rain of the season is about to fall, a warm belly begins to ache, and the young are about to be born.
Because of the warm cries, the tribe members once again focused their eyes on the witch's dwelling. This was the first cub born in the rainy season, everyone felt a mixture of anticipation and worry, their emotions were complex.
The chieftain, Lin, also arrived at the shaman's dwelling, anxiously waiting outside. Not seeing the newborn cub, he was still a little unwilling to give up hope.
At this time, the sky above was also crackling with lightning and thunder, as if venting his displeasure. Unfortunately, the raindrops did not fall for a long time.
After a grueling two hours, with a tiny squeak from the newborn, Wen used every ounce of her strength to finally give birth to the cub.
She turned her head with difficulty, looking at the small bun held in the witch's hand. There was a beast mark on her chest, her eyes were still closed, and she was covered in pure white down, with a few black stripes on top. At this moment, she finally passed out with peace of mind.
The witch sighed and simply cleaned the bloodstains off the little creature's fur before presenting the cub to the crowd.
"It's really a white tiger cub!"
"Then, if we calculate by time, it couldn't possibly be the only..."
How many white tigers are there in our clan Isn't it obvious
The hushed whispers of the surrounding relatives drained Lin of all his strength. He turned and dejectedly left the witch's dwelling.
Ripples stood far away, watching the scene before her, she only shook her head.
The facts are right in front of us, why doesn't Chief Lin announce the withdrawal of punishment against Wei
Du muttered to himself.
He hasn't given up.
He said in a low, grave voice.
Liàn Yī was looking at the sky, feeling the lightning flashing in the clouds. The next moment, the beast mark on her brow flickered, and a white-purple lightning bolt struck down from the air. The moment it landed, it was accompanied by a roar of a tiger.
The shaman sensed it, Lin sensed it too, and the tribe members were startled. Shortly after the purple lightning strike, heavy rain poured down, instantly soaking the beastmen who had made no preparations for it.
And at this time, the ripples, under the protection of Meng and Du's guards, had returned to their temporary dwelling in the cave.
It rained all night, indicating that from today onwards, the Beast World Continent officially enters the rainy season.
The next day at noon, Yue and his companions carried back the stiff corpse of Xiao.had been stolen by that demoness.She must be someone from the top of the world, otherwise those people wouldn't have died to help her escape.Wen Xiaogē said hatefully.A gasp echoed around, "Whoa!" Th...
