Chapter 133: Confrontation
Yun Li didn't expect that she just had this thought, and her Beast Husband immediately sensed it.
She thought seriously, "I want to go outside and see. But my strength is so low, and we also have cubs…"
Her strength is low, she has no self‑protection at all, and with four cubs that like to run around, even though there are three powerful Beast Husbands, she is easily targeted by others.
Leng Xiu gently stroked her long hair and said, "It's fine, even if we leave the Silver Eagle Tribe. We can stay within Heiyan Shanmai for now, wait until the cubs are a bit older and can understand us, then we will leave Heiyan Shanmai."
Moreover, he still hadn't said that getting out of Heiyan Shanmai is not that easy, unless a Beastman who has been out before shows them the way.
"Then…"
Yun Li hesitated, then said, "After Mu Qing returns, if we still can't deal with Ji Chen, shall we look for a chance to leave the Silver Eagle Tribe?"
Leng Xiu gave a light "Hmm" and said, "You don't need to worry about killing Ji Chen. If we really have to go, we will prepare the departure in advance."
Ge Na, who came with Leng Xiao, couldn't believe he heard such words; but if they leave, what will happen to the Young Master?
So when he entered the door, he looked at Leng Xiu and asked, "Are you leaving? Why?"
Isn't the Silver Eagle Tribe fine? Whatever Ji Chen intends, if he dares to act in the tribe, the tribe's Beastmen will definitely not let him get away.
"We haven't decided to leave yet."
Leng Xiu only said that to him, then turned to the matter at hand, "Did you find out who that spear‑hawk Beastman from last night was?"
Leng Xiao looked at the arm that wrapped around Yun Li's waist, his mouth involuntarily tightening, "We checked, but she is a female Beastman."
"Female Beastman?"
Leng Xiu's eyebrows immediately furrowed; if she's female, that's not easy to move.
"Then who is the Beastman behind her?"
Hearing that, Leng Xiao glanced at the Ge beside him.
"I don't understand what you mean by the Beastman behind her."
Ge frowned and said, "But Axi has been known to Gao Lao since childhood, and she indeed always follows Gao Lao's orders. However, are you really sure that the one who broke into your house last night was Axi? The tribe has more than just one spear‑hawk Beastman."
"Then the other Beastmen wouldn't sneak into our house at night without a purpose, would they? We've only offended Ji Chen, and Ji Chen's Ama also has a good relationship with the Gao Lao you mentioned."
"If not her, then who could it be?"
Such a question could only be spoken by Yun Li, otherwise Ge would keep probing, and they wouldn't know how long the back‑and‑forth would go.
As expected, upon hearing Yun Li speak, Ge had more to say, but because she is female, he didn't dare to entangle with her further.
He was just concerned about what they'd do to Axi, "Even if the Beastman who broke into your house last night was Axi, no one in your family was harmed; wouldn't you consider killing Axi?"
Ji Chen might let it slide, after all he dares to go after cubs; if any Beastman dares to harm his female and cubs, he would definitely strike that Beastman down mercilessly.
But Axi... she's at least a female, with several males behind her, and there are other suitors in the tribe; don't they consider resolving this peacefully?
Hearing his question, Leng Xiao let out a light snort, "If we hadn't caught her last night, we would have broken her leg long ago. What is a female doing running to someone else's house at night instead of staying in her own?"
Ge fell silent for a moment, "Maybe it's a misunderstanding."
"Misunderstanding of what?"
There are no that many misunderstandings; if this place had surveillance footage, Yun Li would really throw the video at Ge's face to see what other 'misunderstanding' he could utter.
She said in a not‑so‑good tone, "Regardless of whether there's any misunderstanding, someone broke into our house last night; that's a fact. If you think it's not Axi, we can bring her in for a face‑to‑face confrontation."
Ge looked at Yun Li in surprise, "Are you sure?"
"Of course."
Yun Li's attitude suddenly became proactive, "We have cubs; this is also for their safety."
"Then... should I go fetch her?"
After Ge said that, Leng Xiu and the others didn't object; Yun Li nodded at him, "If she can't come over because of something, you can also ask where she went last night."
"Alright! I understand."
Seeing that they no longer stubbornly assumed Axi was the one who broke into their house last night, Ge immediately agreed, then turned and left the courtyard.
After everyone left, Leng Xiu asked, "Why did we suddenly want him to bring someone for a confrontation?"
"The person might not even come."
Yun Li said indifferently, "Let Ge try her. If she comes, ask whatever you need; whether that female tells the truth or lies doesn't matter, after all they came once and did nothing."
"If they come a second time, we'll be prepared; it'd be even better if we could catch her red‑handed."
"If we don't catch her red‑handed, how can we punish her openly and honorably?"
Leng Xiu slightly furrowed his brows; although he thought this kind of flushing the snake wasn't ideal, since the female herself said so, even if unexpected situations arise, they'll help her deal with them.
……
The female here is anxiously processing what she heard last night; she's not old, has always stayed by Gao Lao's side, obeying him, but in fact Gao Lao often prefers to have her Beast Husband do many things.
The reason she went last night was that the target was a female household of two Qing Rank Beastmen; considering the Young Master is very fond of that female, if her Beast Husband handled it and succeeded, fine; if it failed and he was captured, even if he survived, he'd likely be skinned.
But since she's a female Beastman, it's much easier; if captured, at worst she'd be tied up and sun‑baked, or beaten severely.
However, even she didn't expect to hear so many secrets.
Yes, secrets!
Because every thing Leng Xiu and the others mentioned was something Axi had never heard before; she couldn't learn them from friends or her Beast Husband, so those aren't really secrets.
But... can these matters actually be told to Gao Lao?
Axi hesitated, because she knows Gao Lao actually has ties with Ji Chen's Ama, and she once heard her Beast Husband say that Gao Lao treats Ji Chen as his own male cub.
If he learns these things, would he hide them all for Ji Chen's sake?
Then the fact that Ji Chen colludes with roaming Beastmen to force tribe females into Mate Bonds—no one knows that, what about Miduo? She wasn't voluntarily forming a Mate Bond with Ji Chen.
As Axi thought more and became more confused, Ge suddenly came over.
He said that someone at Yun Li's house saw that she entered their courtyard last night, and now they want to bring her over for a face‑to‑face confrontation.
Axi was instantly terrified, her heart seemed about to leap out, and her mind went blank.
How could that be? She remembered she never let them see what she looks like.
