Chapter 243: The face-down posture is very handsome

Teng Qian stared at her, face full of disbelief: "You're treating me, such a meritorious tiger child, like this?"

Both beastmen's furry tiger faces showed the same expression: the tiger child feeling wronged but not speaking up.

Wu Yue nodded; indeed, it was spot on—the claws were marinated just right, and the two tiger kids performed perfectly.

"You two, have some fruit and rest; once we've cured the meat, we'll head down."

After Wu Yue left, the two beasts were happily chewing on the crisp, sweet fruit when a pair of feet wrapped in beast hide appeared in their view.

That familiar arc and outline... the two beasts looked up...

Indeed, it's our boss, no doubt.

"Gaha ya, boss!"

Yuan Lang let out a light sigh: "Fortunately I have you with me; otherwise, I alone in this strange world wouldn't know what to do."

Seeing his deep emotion, the two beastmen felt no sentiment at all—instead, they grew fully alert, twitching their claws.

It's quite unsettling; whenever the boss acts like this, there's definitely nothing good...

Seeing the two beasts' expression of "what bad scheme are you hatching again?", Yuan Lang sighed inwardly.

Indeed, if you're too familiar, you should be eliminated early; knowing too many secrets makes it hard to deceive.

He stopped pretending, straightened his back, and looked down at the two beasts still holding fruit pits in their mouths: "When you're done, go gather firewood—pick dry branches, the kind that don't smoke easily."

Having said that, he turned away nonchalantly and continued curing the meat.

Left behind, Teng Qian and Teng Kun stared at each other for a long while, then, with muffled sounds, they shifted back into beast form and trudged woefully into the forest.

"What the heck! Indeed, hardworking people only get assigned more work; they should be resentful."

The Snow Tiger Tribe's beastman warriors all took the field, duties clearly divided, and finally completed all preparations before nightfall.

The cave entrance hadn't been enlarged; it was still only just enough for a single beastman warrior to pass through.

After the beasts had transported all the food down, only Yuan Lang, Wu Yue, and the Teng Qian brothers remained on the surface.

Yuan Lang looked at his two deputy commanders beside him: "You two come down later; I'll take Yue down."

Teng Qian and Teng Kun nodded.

Having said that, he with one hand tightly pressed Wu Yue into his embrace, and with the other hand grabbed a vine and slid down.

The beastmen's speed isn't fast, and now that it's dark, the sense of fear isn't that strong either.

Teng Qian dug up a patch of turf not far away; after Teng Kun went down, he held the ground with one hand, suspended his body, and covered the hole with the turf.

Only then did he release his grip, letting his body fall quickly downward.

A beastman who has cultivated the Beast God's power is just this confident; last time when he fell with the boss and his younger brother, he was still the one at the bottom, yet aside from some bodily pain, he actually suffered no injury.

If he were in his previous world's body, Teng Qian would just scoff...

Now he probably would already be queuing in the underworld for rebirth.

Moreover, he had just agreed with his younger brother to meet up later down below...

Boom!!!

A sound of a heavy object hitting the ground came from below; the beasts down there tidying up all turned to look.

All that could be seen was Teng Qian lying face-down on the ground, his legs still twitching.

Wu Yue looked up at the entrance above, now showing no trace, then looked down at Teng Qian still twitching on the ground.

Only then did she turn her head to look at Yuan Lang beside her: "So... did Teng Qian just jump straight down from above?"
