313: Chapter 313 Go find him in person

Yan Lie was also in a state of inner turmoil; why hadn't Xin Feng returned?

"I just saw him..."

He had originally not wanted to worry Wan Wan, but he hadn't expected that Xin Feng would truly be missing.

Watching the Golden Lions rushing toward the Tribe gate, he didn't see the figure of the Silver Wolf.

Bai Wanwan didn't say anything more and quickly turned to run down the stone wall.

The wind on the snowy plains howled, carrying a bone-chilling cold. She stood before the Tribe gate, her fingers tightly gripping the hem of her down jacket.

Her gaze eagerly searched through the returning group of beastmen for that familiar figure.

Silver-gray fur, a sturdy build—he was the one who always silently guarded her by her side.

But there was nothing. When the last beastman returned to the Tribe, she still didn't see Xin Feng's figure.

Bai Wanwan's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, her chest feeling as if it were being tightly gripped by an invisible hand.

She walked quickly toward the nearest Golden Lion Clan beastman; the Male was currently lowering his head to lick a wound on his arm.

"Excuse me, where is the Silver Wolf who was fighting the enemy with you just now? Did you see him?" Her voice was taut, suppressing the panic in her heart.

The Golden Lion raised his head, his golden pupils looking somewhat exhausted. "Hmm, I saw him on the battlefield just now."

"Then where is he?" Bai Wanwan asked eagerly, stepping forward unconsciously.

The other party turned his head to look around, his thick mane still stained with undried blood. "Strange, how come I don't see him?"

He scratched his head. "I saw him constantly weaving through the beastmen of the Black Bear Tribe."

Bai Wanwan pursed her lips and immediately went to ask the beastman beside him, "Excuse me, did you see the Silver Wolf when you came back?"

"I saw him outside just a moment ago, but I don't seem to have seen him upon returning."

As he spoke, he was also looking around nearby.

Bai Wanwan's heart sank.

How could he suddenly disappear when he was perfectly fine?

Could it be that not a single beastman saw him?

She turned and stopped another injured beastman who was slowly moving forward.

She asked tirelessly, and the other party similarly indicated that the last time they saw Xin Feng was in the center of the battlefield, and they hadn't paid attention after that.

Asking one after another, she questioned all the beastmen.

The answers she received were much the same; everyone had seen Xin Feng, but no one knew where he had ultimately gone.

Bai Wanwan's fingernails dug deep into her palms, but she couldn't feel the pain.

She turned around and faced outside the Tribe gate.

Snow continued to fall in flurries, and the snowy plains outside the Tribe, trampled and messy, were littered with countless beastman corpses lying in disarray.

In a very short amount of time, she made a decision.

"Clan Leader Jin Cang!"

Bai Wanwan walked quickly toward the Lion Clan leader who was directing the treatment of the wounded, her voice raised with anxiety. "My Beast Husband hasn't returned yet. Can you lend me some High-Ranked Males? I want to go outside and look for him."

Jin Cang turned his head, appearing quite surprised, his thick golden eyebrows furrowing together. "Your Beast Husband hasn't returned?"

He looked around, his expression gradually becoming grave. "Alright, I will have Jin Yue take people to look for him immediately."

He beckoned for the burly Jin Yue and gave him a few brief instructions.

"Female Bai Wanwan's Beast Husband hasn't returned yet. You must immediately take some Males with Yellow-Tier Talent and go out to search. You must find him and bring him back!"

The ability to turn the tide of this battle was all thanks to Bai Wanwan and her several Beast Husbands.

If it weren't for their family, their Golden Lion Clan might have lost their home.

There would be even more Clan Members lying outside right now.

"Alright, Clan Leader, I will take them to search right now."

In the blink of an eye, Jin Yue had assembled a dozen or so High-Ranked Males.

Bai Wanwan pulled her down jacket tighter around herself and stepped forward, wanting to follow the team.

"Wan Wan, it's too dangerous outside." Jin Cang reached out to stop her. "Just let the Males go find him."

"I'm going too."

The Black Bear Tribe had already retreated from the snowy plains, and the location of the battlefield wasn't too far from here.

She could no longer endure the anxious waiting; she wanted to go see for herself.

Bai Wanwan looked directly into the Clan Leader's golden eyes, her voice firm. "I want to find him personally. Please help me look after Zhu Xiu for a while; I will be back soon."

Yan Lie had been by her side the whole time. Hearing that she wanted to go out, he immediately spoke up: "Wan Wan, I'll go with you."

Yan Lie was dragging his scarred body, his fur matted together with blood and ice and snow, and some wounds were still oozing blood.

Most worryingly, he kept using his claws to scratch certain parts of his body, having already scratched out new wounds.

"Don't move!"

Bai Wanwan pressed down on his claws with a heartache. "You're injured like this; you don't need to go out with me. I have the Golden Lion Clan beastmen protecting me, so I won't be in danger. You go find the Shaman to treat your wounds, and while you're at it, help me watch Zhu Xiu. I'll be back soon."

"No."

Yan Lie stubbornly shook his head, his amber eyes looking straight at her. "I cannot let you leave the Tribe alone. Unless I follow, you cannot go out."

Bai Wanwan bit her lower lip; there was no time to waste.

It was probably impossible to reason with Yan Lie, so she would just have to go and return quickly.

"Alright, then let's set off now."

Yan Lie lay down in front of her, and Bai Wanwan easily climbed onto his back.

But she didn't dare to lie down casually as she used to.

Because he was covered in wounds, and although some places had been treated with Healing Ointment, he kept scratching because it was too itchy.

The wounds that had just scabbed over were torn open by him again.

She sat stiffly, tenderly stroking his fur stained with blood and filth.

"It hurts a lot, doesn't it?" Bai Wanwan leaned over and gently blew on it for him. "Bear with it a little; when we get back, I'll find a way to help stop the itching."

Originally, that piercing itch was flaring up, and he was about to raise his claw to scratch again.

But feeling the breath Bai Wanwan exhaled onto his wounds, the itching and irritability in his heart felt as if they had been gently stroked by a feather.

"Wan Wan, blow on it for me again. If you blow on it, it won't itch or hurt anymore."

How could it not itch or hurt? But at a time like this, all that was left in her heart was heartache, so naturally, she would unconditionally satisfy him.

Not only did she blow on it the whole way, but she also exchanged for more Healing Ointment to apply to him.

Yan Lie ran across the snowy plains following the Golden Lions, wanting to scratch several times.

"Don't scratch, bear with it."

He forcibly resisted the itch; sometimes, when the itching was too strong, he would tremble all over from holding it back.

The group of beastmen galloped across the snowy plains, and the cold wind immediately struck like knife cuts.

While applying medicine to Yan Lie, Bai Wanwan buried her face in her scarf, but she still felt the cold air drilling straight into the gaps of her bones.

There were more corpses on the snowy plains than they had looked from afar—some from the Black Bear Clan, some from the Golden Lion Tribe—all covered in a thin layer of snow.

After a while longer, it would probably be impossible to distinguish who was who.

It would be even harder for her to find Xin Feng.

"We must move faster; look, the snow is about to completely cover the beastmen's corpses."

Finally, staring through the snowflakes, they arrived at the place where the battle had just taken place.

Jin Yue and the others were faster and had already started searching through the nearby beastman corpses.

Yan Lie arrived last. As soon as Bai Wanwan slid off his back, he could no longer endure it and scratched vigorously.

Bai Wanwan couldn't worry about him at this moment; she had to seize the time to find Xin Feng.

"Xin Feng!"
