307: Chapter 307 The Tribe is Besieged

Chapter 37: The Tribe Under Siege

Yan Lie brushed the snowflakes off his head, his usual smile replaced by worry.

"What's wrong?" Xin Feng was the first to ask.

"The Golden Lion Tribe has been surrounded by Bear Clan Beastmen."

As Yan Lie's voice trailed off, the room fell into a heavy silence.

After a long while, Zhu Xiu stood up, walked to the door, and pushed it open to look outside.

Bai Wanwan couldn't help herself either; wrapped in a beast skin blanket, she wanted to head out.

Xin Feng grabbed her wrist. "It's too cold outside, don't go. We aren't clear on the specific situation yet; let us go check it out first."

Bai Wanwan pulled back on his hand and tried to negotiate, "I'll just take a look from the doorway, I definitely won't go out."

Xin Feng sighed. "Your body is weak. The cold wind of the Snow Season will give you a fever, and falling ill with a fever can be very dangerous."

Yan Lie immediately nodded in agreement. "Wan Wan, whatever you want to know, I'll go check for you. I'll come back and tell you later. Don't go out; what if you freeze?"

As he spoke, he fetched another beast skin blanket to wrap around her.

In the blink of an eye, she was wrapped in layer upon layer like a zongzi.

Zhu Xiu didn't stay at the door for long before turning to them and saying, "Xin Feng, you and Yan Lie take good care of Wan Wan. I'm going to the Tribe's main gate to check the situation."

Through the crack in the door, Bai Wanwan could see Golden Lions in their original forms running outside.

There were also the sounds of lion roars coming from everywhere.

"Zhu Xiu, be careful."

The feeling of being cared for by his Consort softened Zhu Xiu's solemn expression slightly. "Alright, I'll be back soon."

Zhu Xiu left and quickly closed the door behind him.

Wrapped in her beast skin blanket, Bai Wanwan stood in place, motionless.

"Wan Wan, it's cold here. Let's go inside and wait."

Under the persuasion of her two Beast Husbands, Bai Wanwan finally turned and went back inside.

Yan Lie saw her worry and comforted her, "It's just a siege for now, don't worry. How about we play poker with you?"

Bai Wanwan didn't object, but she had no heart for the game, constantly glancing toward the door.

About half an hour later, Zhu Xiu pushed open the door and walked in.

Bai Wanwan immediately looked up at him. "How is it? Has the fighting really started?"

"Yes."

Zhu Xiu's expression was somewhat heavy. He brushed off the snow before walking further in.

He sat down beside Bai Wanwan and squeezed her hand to reassure her.

"We might need to be prepared. The Bear Clan has brought at least ten thousand Males this time; the Golden Lion Tribe is struggling to cope."

Hearing him say this, the slight bit of hope Bai Wanwan had harbored completely vanished.

A real war had broken out!

Her face turned pale instantly. If a war broke out between Large Tribes like the Golden Lion and the Bear Clan, it would surely be tragic.

She pursed her lips in silence, hoping the Golden Lion Tribe could overcome this crisis.

"Don't worry, the Golden Lion Tribe and the Bear Clan Tribe are equal in strength. The Bear Clan might not necessarily gain an advantage," Zhu Xiu said, holding her hand to calm her emotions.

Bai Wanwan nodded. If the Golden Lion Tribe were breached, the beastmen here would likely be completely slaughtered.

No beastman in the Tribe would be able to escape unscathed.

To avoid making Bai Wanwan even more worried and afraid, none of them mentioned the battle situation outside again.

However, the three Beast Husbands would take turns going out to check on the progress of the war.

At first, the Bear Clan and the Golden Lion Tribe were just testing each other and hadn't launched a large-scale war.

The Golden Lion Tribe was not at a disadvantage either.

Bai Wanwan usually slept well, but lately, she would wake up in the middle of the night and couldn't fall back asleep.

From time to time, the roars of Golden Lions could be heard from outside.

Mournful, angry...

They were far away, so the sounds were actually very faint.

But if one listened carefully, they could still be heard.

Having lain in one position for too long, her whole body felt uncomfortable. She gently turned over, the light down comforter still wrapped tightly around her.

The wind whistled against the doors and windows. Just as she was about to tuck in the quilt, a powerful arm pulled her in.

"It's still early." Xin Feng's voice was raspy from sleep, his warm breath brushing against her ear. "Sleep a little longer."

Bai Wanwan gave a soft reply, turned over to hug his waist, and felt the constant warmth from his body.

After a while, Xin Feng realized the Female wasn't asleep yet. Although she was quiet and still, her breathing was different from when she was asleep.

"Can't sleep?"

His palm rested on her lower back, stroking it gently.

Bai Wanwan looked up at him. "Did you hear that sound?"

A Male's hearing was stronger; of course he had heard it.

They couldn't distance themselves from this battle, so he had to ensure he got enough rest and maintained his strength.

Only then could he exert his best combat power if real danger arrived.

"I heard it. Don't be afraid. The Golden Lion Tribe has over sixty Yellow-Tier Males; it won't be easy for the Bear Clan to gain the upper hand."

Bai Wanwan buried her head in his chest. "Mhm, you're right. Let's sleep."

She forced herself to fall asleep, thinking she would continue to suffer from insomnia.

But under Xin Feng's rhythmic patting and stroking, she soon felt drowsy again and unknowingly drifted off to sleep.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

The Bear Clan's attacks didn't stop. The Witchs Cave was near the Central Plaza, so every day Bai Wanwan could hear the screams of many injured Male beastmen and see the corpses of Golden Lions that had died in battle laid out on the Plaza.

The snow fell rustling down, soon slowly covering their bodies.

"Wan Wan, don't look."

Yan Lie closed the door and pulled her back.

Such a scene was too cruel even for him, let alone a Female.

Finally, she made a decision.

Both the Clan Leader and the Young Clan Leader of the Golden Lion Tribe had been kind to her. Moreover, if the Golden Lion Tribe were breached, she, her Beast Husbands, and The Cubs would all be in danger.

If her points were gone, she could earn more.

But if anything happened to The Cubs or her Beast Husbands, she wouldn't be able to bear the cost.

"Yan Lie, I have a batch of medicine here. Go give it to the Clan Witch and have her apply it to the beastmen whose injuries aren't fatal."

Her points were limited. If she exchanged them for Highly Effective Wound Healing Medicine, she would run out after only a few.

And the number of wounded was increasing all the time.

She couldn't save that many people, so she could only exchange for ordinary Healing Ointment.

This would allow those Males whose injuries weren't very serious to recover their combat effectiveness as quickly as possible, which could also prevent more beastman casualties.

She spent nearly ten thousand points to exchange for dozens of tubes of ordinary Healing Ointment and placed them in Yan Lie's hands. "Go quickly. Save as many as you can."

Yan Lie didn't waste time either. He gave Xin Feng a quick word to look after Wan Wan and immediately opened the door to head out.

Perhaps with the help of Bai Wanwan's batch of Healing Ointment.

Over the next two days, she saw that the number of new Golden Lion corpses on the Plaza had significantly decreased.

Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.

But what Bai Wanwan didn't expect was that on the battlefield outside the Tribe, the Bear Clan Leader lost his patience after seeing that the attack had been unsuccessful for a long time.

The Bear Clan Leader stepped forward, staring at Jin Cang on the stone wall, and issued a new command.

"Order all Yellow-Tier Males to advance and launch a full-scale assault. We must break through the Golden Lion Tribe's gates today."
