27: Chapter 27 Venting

Xin Feng scolded her in time, preventing Hu Ya from fully uttering the last syllable, causing it to change pitch.

Roger, who was sitting nearby watching the show, vaguely heard a word.

But unfortunately, he didn't hear it clearly.

He looked at Hu Ya, then turned his gaze toward Bai Wanwan sitting diagonally across from him...

Hu Ya vented her anger on Xin Feng again. "Xin Feng, you are the same. You all dislike me because of Bai Wanwan..."

Xin Feng's brows were already knitted together.

Wu Mu grabbed Hu Ya and dragged her outside.

"Wu Mu, let me go! If you become Bai Wanwan's Beast Husband, I will never forgive you."

"Ya Ya, let's go outside and talk."

Bai Wanwan continued eating roasted meat, having no interest in watching this farce any longer.

Seeing Xin Feng's displeased expression, she picked up a piece of meat and fed it to his mouth. "Open up."

Xin Feng lifted his eyes to look at her, his expression softening slightly. He opened his mouth and cooperatively ate the meat she fed him.

Roger watched their interaction, his lips curling coldly. He then put down his chopsticks, crossed his arms over his chest, and stared at the two of them.

"Xin Feng, tell me, why were you in such a rush to interrupt that Little Female just now? Is there something you didn't want me to hear?"

"You are just a Foreign Tribe member; what do the Tribe's affairs have to do with you? If they want to argue, they can go outside. Don't disturb Wan Wan while she is eating."

Xin Feng's tone was calm, and his expression showed no change.

Roger scanned his face back and forth but couldn't find any clues.

However, he felt that something was wrong.

He turned his gaze back to look at Bai Wanwan, but she didn't react at all, remaining focused on eating her meat.

"I'm full."

After saying that, he stood up and walked outside.

But before he had taken two steps, he was called back by Bai Wanwan. "Remember to bring the meat over."

Roger was so angry he laughed. Does this Little Female see no value in him other than those few pieces of meat?

"Fine, I'll bring it to you!"

This time, he didn't even turn his head and walked straight out of the cave.

Outside, Hu Ya was tugging at Wu Mu, refusing to let go.

"You said you would be my Beast Husband. Go to the Witchs Cave with me right now for the Pairing Ceremony."

"Ya Ya, I cannot have a Pairing Ceremony with you. This was decided by the Tribe Leader."

"I don't believe you! You just see that Bai Wanwan's fertility is better than mine, so you want to be her Beast Husband. When she was an Inferior Female before, why didn't you want to be her Beast Husband?"

Having his thoughts exposed, Wu Mu's expression looked a bit ugly.

He forcibly pulled his hand out of Hu Ya's grasp.

"Ya Ya, I have made it clear to you. If you try to stop this, you will make the Tribe Leader angry."

"Let him be angry! I am very angry too! Bai Wanwan is my nemesis."

When Roger came out, he only saw Hu Ya blocking that Male named Wu Mu.

It was a bit far away, so he didn't hear clearly what they were saying.

After the two of them tugged at each other for a long time, the Male broke free and turned to walk away with large strides.

Hu Ya stood there in a frenzy, shouting at Wu Mu's retreating back. "Wu Mu, you lied to me! I won't let you off!"

Roger crossed his arms over his chest and slowly paced closer.

As soon as Hu Ya turned around, she saw Roger walking behind her.

She quickly restrained her emotions, not wanting her disheveled appearance to be seen by another Male.

"Captain Roger, when did you arrive?"

She felt a bit guilty inside; she seemed to have mentioned Bai Wanwan's fertility just now, and she didn't know if he had heard it.

She also didn't want him to know that Bai Wanwan was a Sacred Female.

In the Tribe, Bai Wanwan had stolen all the attention.

She knew that no Male could resist the temptation of a Sacred Female.

If this Traveling Merchants captain found out, and if he happened to become Bai Wanwan's Beast Husband, Bai Wanwan would lack nothing in the future and would suppress her even more.

"I've been here for a while, just in time to see a good show," Roger said with a half-smile.

Hu Ya widened her eyes, feeling guilty inside, worried that he had heard.

Roger walked towards her step by step. "A cute and beautiful Little Female like you should have many strong beastmen admiring you and willing to protect you. That Male named Wu Mu must have been scratched in the eyes by a wild beast and can't see clearly."

Hearing him say this, Hu Ya's panic disappeared, and a hint of shyness appeared on her face. "Do you really think so?"

"Of course. He said before that he wanted to have a Pairing Ceremony with you. Why does your Cat Clan Tribe Leader want them to be Bai Wanwan's Beast Husbands?"

The more Hu Ya heard, the angrier she got. "It's just because Bai Wanwan, she birth..."

Just as she said half of it, Hu Ya realized what she was doing and immediately raised her hand to cover her mouth.

"Birth what?" Roger pressed.

Hu Ya was startled and hurriedly tried to make up an excuse. "Because I have several Beast Husbands, and Bai Wanwan only has one, Xin Feng, and Xin Feng is injured. The Tribe Leader is worried that there aren't enough Males to protect her, and she won't survive this Snow Season."

Roger narrowed his eyes, realizing she was lying.

"But I heard that Bai Wanwan is an Inferior Female. Are Females in your Cat Clan Tribe so scarce that even an Inferior Female needs strong Males to protect her?"

Hu Ya's brain couldn't keep up, and she didn't know how to smooth it over.

"That... that is the Tribe Leader's decision; I don't know either."

As she said this, she wanted to leave.

Roger stepped to the side and blocked her path. "Do you really not know, or do you just not want me to know?"

Hu Ya's eyes became even more panicked. "I don't not want you to know."

Roger's lips curled. "Since you don't not want me to know, then tell me what you know."

How could Hu Ya dare to tell him? If the Tribe Leader found out, he would definitely send her to the Female Cave.

She hurriedly reached out to push Roger away and turned to run.

Roger was just testing her; he didn't expect to find the answer right away.

But Hu Ya's actions were indirectly telling him that the Cat Clan Tribe was hiding something, and it was about Bai Wanwan's secret.

It wasn't until Hu Ya's panicked retreating figure disappeared that he turned and left.

When Hu Ya returned to the cave, several Beast Husbands who were cutting up prey looked up at her in unison.

When Hu Ya saw Xin Shan and Xin Yu, her anger surged up in waves.

The two of them had also wanted to be Bai Wanwan's Beast Husbands before. If it weren't for Bai Wanwan not being willing, they would have definitely become her Beast Husbands long ago.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got, and she directly ordered the two. "You two go up the mountain now. I want to eat Snow Leopard meat."

The Snow Leopard is a fierce beast. In a small Tribe like the Cat Clan, almost no Male could hunt it alone.

Even for the brothers Xin Shan and Xin Yu, joining forces would be very dangerous.

Hu Ya had exclusively favored Xin Shan and Xin Yu for the past two days, causing dissatisfaction among the other Beast Husbands.

Now, seeing Hu Ya order the two to hunt a Snow Leopard, everyone was happy, and no one stood up to say a word for them.

Xin Shan looked at the sky outside. "Ya Ya, it's getting dark. Xin Yu and I will go up the mountain to catch a Snow Leopard for you early tomorrow morning."

"No, I want you to go now. If you can't hunt a Snow Leopard, don't come back."

Xin Yu was a bit anxious. "Ya Ya, just the two of us, how could we possibly hunt a Snow Leopard?"

"Figure it out yourself. If you don't hunt a Snow Leopard, don't come back."

Xin Yu wanted to say more, but was held back by Xin Shan.

He could see that Hu Ya had been upset outside and was venting her anger on them.

"Fine, we'll go now."
