Chapter 359: You’re Ruthless!

Bai Di had almost forgotten about him.

The third prince of the City of 10,000 Beasts was closely related to the city.

Now that the rock mountain and the City of 10,000 Beasts were at odds, He Guang would definitely side with the City of 10,000 Beasts.

If he had the urge to capture this ‘wanted criminal’, Huanhuan, for the City of 10,000 Beasts and bring an army to attack the Rock Wolf Tribe, he could do it in a matter of minutes considering the distance between He Guang’s army base and the rock mountain.

It would be difficult for the Rock Wolf Tribe to defend themselves.

Shuang Yun thought for a moment. “Why don’t we find a chance to meet and talk to He Guang?”

Bai Di nodded. “That’s a good idea. Didn’t Huanhuan say that we should try to avoid fighting as much as possible?”

“Mmhm.”

Sang Ye said coldly, “When we meet him, we’d better find a place close to the rock mountain.”

Shuang Yun was puzzled. “Why?”

“If he doesn’t know what’s good for him and insists on going against us, we’ll go all out and kill him. After we succeed, we’ll immediately return to the rock mountain. Therefore, we have to choose a place closer to the rock mountain so that we can escape.”

Since they were going to be enemies sooner or later, it was better to attack early. This way, they could minimize the threat of the enemy.

Shuang Yun gave him a thumbs-up. “You’re ruthless!”

Sang Ye looked at him expressionlessly.

Shuang Yun immediately added, “But I like it very much!”

However, to their surprise, the next day, He Guang came to their door of his own accord with four trusted guards.

When Shuang Yun heard the news, he immediately called a pair of men down the mountain to meet with He Guang. Bai Di and Xuan Wei followed.

The location of their meeting was in the oracle temple.

The oracle temple was surrounded by stone walls on all sides. It was very well-built. There was a fire pit near the window with charcoal burning inside. Warm air filled the entire place.

It was much warmer here than in the military camp!

He Guang chose a seat near the fire pit and sat down. He chatted with Shuang Yun while warming himself.

Bai Di casually threw a few large red potatoes and a large handful of peanuts into the fire pit.

Before long, the fragrance of sweet potatoes and peanuts filled the air.

He Guang couldn’t help but gulp, his eyes glancing into the fire pit from time to time.

Bai Di used his claws to reach out into the charcoal fire and pulled out the sweet potatoes and peanuts. He picked a larger sweet potato and handed it to He Guang. He smiled. “This is something we planted ourselves. It’s not bad to eat as a snack. Try it.”

He Guang thanked him, took the roasted sweet potato, and bit into it.

The sweet potato was fragrant and sweet. It melted in his mouth. It tasted unexpectedly delicious!

He finished the roasted sweet potato in two or three mouthfuls.

Bai Di distributed the other roasted sweet potatoes to Shuang Yun, Xuan Wei, and the others.

After eating the sweet potatoes, the few of them began to eat peanuts. The sound of cracking could be heard.

He Guang couldn’t stop eating. “Not only is it warm and comfortable here, but the food is also so delicious. It makes me want to move in!”

Shuang Yun smiled brightly. “You’re always welcome here!”

He Guang said half-jokingly, “I’m serious. Don’t regret it when we really move here.”

Ever since winter, the weather had been getting worse.

It was fine if there was a shortage of food, but even if he wanted to drink some water, he could only grab some snow and ice to stuff into his mouth.

In just 10 days, many beast soldiers had frostbite on their bodies. If they moved even a little, their skin would be torn and they would bleed. It was extremely painful.

After this period of time together, coupled with the fact that they had been on the battlefield together a few times and he had a deeper relationship with these beast soldiers, He Guang couldn’t bear to see them suffer.

That was why he took the initiative to come to the Rock Wolf Tribe. He wanted to buy some herbs to treat frostbite and supplies that could ward off the cold.

However, when He Guang sat down in the oracle temple and enjoyed the warmth and comfort here, the idea of buying supplies involuntarily evolved into moving to the rock mountain.

After the thought came, it grew stronger. He couldn’t push it down.

Shuang Yun casually threw the peanut shells in his hand into the fire pit and said with a smile, “It’s definitely impossible for Your Highness to move the entire military camp over. After all, our territory is only so big. We can’t accommodate so many beasts.”

He Guang nodded in understanding.

When he came here just now, he had observed the area at the foot of the rock mountain. It was neither big nor small. If the entire military camp was moved here, it would definitely become very crowded.

That wouldn’t be good. It would easily cause unnecessary friction.

Seeing that he was not in a hurry to retort and get angry, Shuang Yun was even more certain of the third prince. He continued, “But if you only choose a portion to live here, we can still accept it.”

Hearing this, He Guang was delighted.

It would be good even if only a portion of the beast soldiers moved in!

In fact, he couldn’t get all the beast soldiers to move in. After all, their camp was located by the Black River. That was their headquarters. They couldn’t give it up easily.

Most importantly, the other side of the river was the territory of the demons. They had to leave enough people there to keep an eye on the enemy troops and prevent them from attacking.

He Guang quickly calculated in his mind. He could come up with a rotation system and let those beast soldiers come to the rock mountain in batches for a period of time.

This should ease the frostbite of the beast soldiers.

He Guang quickly nodded. “Sure.”

Shuang Yun said, “The rock mountain can only accept 50 beasts at a time. During the stay, you have to pay for the corresponding accommodation and food.”

He Guang couldn’t help but say, “Can’t we do a hundred beasts?”

“No. There are too many of you. We’ll feel insecure.”

He Guang said, “We’re just borrowing the place for a while. We promise not to cause trouble.”

Shuang Yun still shook his head. He said frankly, “I believe you’ve already received the news that our mate caused a little trouble in the City of 10,000 Beasts. Now, the City of 10,000 Beasts has a lot of opinions about our Rock Wolf Tribe. Seeing as you’re the prince of the City of 10,000 Beasts, we have to be on guard.”

He said it so bluntly that He Guang couldn’t defend himself. In the end, he could only say helplessly, “50 is too few. At least 80.”

Shuang Yun turned around and discussed it with Bai Di. He then agreed to set the number at 80.

As soon as the matter was settled, He Guang couldn’t sit still anymore.

“Take me to see where the beast soldiers will be staying. If the environment is too bad, I won’t agree.”

Shuang Yun was also a neat beast. “Alright, I’ll show you the place now.”

They wrapped themselves in animal hide cloaks and walked out of the oracle temple to see where the soldiers would be staying.

Previously, Shuang Yun had chased away a group of beasts, leaving many empty houses in this temporary residence. Shuang Yun rented these houses to He Guang.

Every house was neatly built. They were sturdy, had doors and windows, and were equipped with simple furniture and fire pits.
