Chapter 235 Part 1: Shocking the Beasts
Seeing the old priest come down, Lin Baiyan quickly pulled Lang Cang forward, saying, "You must be tired from your journey."
The old priest waved his hand with a smile, "It's not hard work at all. With your cart and basket, I can just sit and be more comfortable."
Lin Baiyan quickly introduced, "This is my elder, Tu Lin, who is the captain of our gathering team."
In the world of beastmen, ability is always the measure of worth. Although Rabbit Forest only knows how to gather, in Lin Baiyan's eyes, Rabbit Forest is the guide who brought him into this world, equivalent to his master.
The old priest noticed the seriousness in Lin Baiyan's tone and greeted Tu Lin kindly, "You've raised a fine cub."
Tu Lin was initially a little apprehensive facing this veteran priest, but upon hearing this, he was no longer nervous and grinned happily, "It's Bai Yan who's lived up to expectations."
Just as they exchanged a few pleasantries, the Silver Fox Clan members stopped, and a low voice came from the side, "Hu Kuo, I never thought I'd see you, old man, one day."
Following the sound, everyone looked and saw an elderly female orc wearing a white bearskin cloak trembling as she stepped down from a cart on the other side.
The old orc was probably not in good health. Even though it was late October, she was still dressed in thick clothes, her face was pale, and her lips were a little purple.
However, her eyes were exceptionally bright and spirited, and her features remained beautiful, making it easy to see that she was a beauty in her youth.
"He must have been as handsome as Hu Bing when he was young," Lin Baiyan thought to himself. Hu Bing was already the most handsome sub-beastman he had ever seen on the Beastman Continent.
Her allure deepened, befitting her status as a fox spirit.
However, with age, her peaceful aura completely suppressed her charm, making her appear dignified and mysterious.
The first thing he said was, "Hey, you old codger, you're still alive?"
The old priest Hu Kuo was speechless. "If you can't speak properly, then don't speak!" Her mouth was as venomous as ever. Hu Bing had been poisoned by her words through constant exposure!
The old priest looked at her and asked, "What brings you here, old man?"
Fox Xia straightened up, holding onto Fox Bing's arm, and rolled her eyes at him. "I heard there's an interesting little guy coming down the mountain, so I came down to see him."
"It was a really tiring journey, with all the stumbling and falling."
The snow-capped mountains were not as easy to traverse as the plains; even with a cart, the old priest was shaken so much he almost vomited.
Hu Kuo seemed to be in good spirits. He walked over to her in a few steps with his cane, looking rather gloating. "What are you doing, you old man with your frail arms and legs?"
As he said this, a barely perceptible hint of worry flashed across his eyes.
Even though Hu Xia was exhausted, she still insisted on arguing with Hu Kuo. However, it was not hard to tell from their words that the two had a good relationship.
Hu Kuo chatted with his old friend for a few moments, then chuckled and pointed at him, introducing him to Lin Baiyan, "This is the previous priest of the Silver Fox Clan, but he has now retired."
Upon hearing this, Lin Baiyan gave Hu Xia a very reserved and obedient smile, "Hello, Aunt Priestess, my name is Baiyan."
When Fox Fairy saw the little Asian beastman's obedient and shy smile, she felt as if her heart had been touched.
"Oh my, little cutie, where did you come from?" Fox Xia broke free from Fox Bing's hand, took a few steps forward, pinched Lin Baiyan's cheek, and her affection was evident on her face.
Lin Baiyan blinked innocently, looked at Hu Bing, and gestured with his eyes, "Is this the standard procedure for first meetings among your Silver Fox Clan members?"
Fox Ice shrugged helplessly at him.
"Hurry up and save me!" Lin Baiyan kept winking at him.
"Teacher, you're too enthusiastic. Be careful not to scare Bai Yan." Hu Bing then stepped forward and helped Hu Xia up with a smile.
"Hey, Little Bingbing, don't stop me! I haven't even hugged Little Flame yet!" Fox Xia rolled her eyes at Fox Bingbing, a little annoyed.
Little Flame...
Lin Baiyan listened to this slightly cloying address with a blank expression. Heaven knows, no one had ever called him such a soft and affectionate name before.
When Hu Bing heard his teacher call him, he smiled awkwardly. "Don't mind me. I was just bored in the cave for too long, so everything seemed new and interesting to me."
Lin Baiyan smiled and waved his hand, then turned his gaze to a middle-aged man beside him, "And this is..."
Hu Bing explained with a smile, "This is the patriarch of our Silver Fox Clan."
Fox Zhen was not tall, with a fair complexion and a beard. He exuded a peaceful aura. He greeted everyone with a smile, "Friends of the Azure Flame Tribe, I am Fox Zhen."
Although Hu Zhen seemed friendly and easy to talk to, for some reason, Lin Baiyan always felt a little uneasy when she looked at him, as if he could see right through her.
He smiled subconsciously and stopped looking at Hu Zhen. Hu Xia noticed Lin Baiyan's subtle expression and glared at Hu Zhen, "Take that look away from me!"
Upon hearing this, Hu Zhen chuckled awkwardly, shedding his aura of profound mystery and transforming into a normal, refined clan leader.
Lin Baiyan stared in disbelief at the changes in Hu Zhen.
After a brief introduction to the various tribes, Lang Cang and Lin Baiyan led the guests slowly into the tribes.
Before long, the group of orcs saw the wall standing majestically in front of them. The wall of the Azure Flame Tribe had been completed a few days ago.
"This...this is your tribe's city wall?" A look of shock flashed across Foxy's eyes.
By the God of Beasts!
Despite her unsteady legs, she quickly walked over with her crutches and reached out to touch the bluish-gray bricks.
The old priest of the Silver Tiger Clan, Hu Kuo, was in no better shape. The two old priests exchanged a glance and both saw the hidden meaning in each other's eyes.
Hu Kuo was alright; he knew that the Silver Tiger Clan was helping the Azure Flame Tribe build a wall, but he didn't expect the resulting houses to be so majestic and towering.
I was somewhat prepared, but not much.
Fox Xia turned around and asked, as if to confirm, "Did you build all of this city wall?"
She had traveled extensively in her youth, visiting many of the major tribes in the southern part of the orc continent. She had only seen buildings like this in a few major tribes, and their buildings were not as exquisite and sturdy as the one before her.
Lin Baiyan scratched his head sheepishly, "It's not just us, the big tigers of the Silver Tiger Clan are also helping."
Otherwise, they don't know when they'd finish building it.
The city wall has three gates, one in the front and two on the sides.
The main gate is made of wood nailed together with mortise and tenon joints, mixed with iron parts. The gate alone is at least one meter thick and five meters high. It takes five male orcs on each side to open such a double gate from the inside, and it is even more difficult to open it from the outside.
