Chapter 419 The Return Journey
That night, Lin Baiyan sat in Lang Xun's tent and told them about his and Lang Cang's experiences over the past two years in detail.
From the initial vigilance and precautions, to the later establishment and protection of tribes, and finally the establishment of the City of Ten Thousand Beasts to find their people.
After he finished speaking, there was a long silence in the tent. Lin Baiyan could clearly see the deep regret and heartache hidden in Lang Xun's eyes.
He felt sorry for Lang Cang.
Realizing this, Lin Baiyan's lips curled up slightly. He admitted that he said it on purpose, so that Lang Luo and Lang Xun would know that Lang Cang had never given up searching for them.
Lang Cang was always silent, standing quietly behind everyone. He always did much more than he said, like a majestic and imposing mountain, shielding all the trees from the wind and rain.
Lin Baiyan didn't want him to do that. He wanted everyone to know about Lang Cang's sacrifices, and he hoped that more people would feel sorry for Lang Cang.
As Lang Xun listened to the events of the past two years, he witnessed the sudden changes in the tribe. In just two short years, Lang Cang had transformed from a spirited and arrogant young chieftain of the Star Wolf Clan into the powerful and omnipotent Lord of the Beast City, who protected everyone.
He had to protect the remaining cubs and also search for the enemy who wiped out his clan. At least Lang Luo and Lang Wang had them by their side to take care of them, but Lang Cang was all alone, struggling in this unfamiliar and dangerous north with a group of Star Wolf cubs who were like a burden.
Fortunately, Lang Cang met this person.
Wolf Seeker gazed intently at the gentle-looking sub-beastman before him. Although he was rough in character, it didn't mean he was a fool. He could understand the hidden meaning in Lin Baiyan's words.
Fortunately, there are now people willing to protect their young clan leader.
The nights in the north are exceptionally long, but since the group wasn't together, dawn broke before they knew it.
At dawn, Lin Baiyan led the beastmen of Ten Thousand Beasts City to brew another batch of medicine for the Star Wolf tribe. Most of the Star Wolf beastmen's fevers subsided after taking the first dose of medicine.
However, this is only temporary, and he is not sure if they will catch fire again.
"Put all the sick beastmen on the carts. We're going back to the city today. If we stay here in this freezing weather, even the healthy ones will probably get sick," Lin Baiyan decided with a single hammer blow.
The orcs around him didn't object at all.
So after the decision was made, the entire temporary camp gradually became busy. First, the sick beastmen were moved to the warm carriages to light charcoal, and then they came back to dismantle the tents of the temporary camp and put the intact animal hides on the carriages one by one.
These are all their supplies; after brushing off the snow and drying them, they can be reused.
Nowadays, their Star Wolf Clan is somewhat impoverished. Wolf Luo personally took care of properly storing all the animal hides. He wouldn't put on airs and throw them away; for Wolf Luo, the most important thing was for his people to have enough to eat and wear.
After everything was ready, the campfires in the temporary camp were extinguished with snow. Xiong Fei inspected the temporary camp and then returned to Lin Baiyan's side. "High Priest, everything is ready."
Lin Baiyan tightened his cloak, exhaled a breath of cold air, and coughed incessantly as he opened his mouth, "Cough, cough, cough."
After calming down, Lin Baiyan spoke again, "Alright, let's go."
Xiong Fei hesitated for a moment, then said, "Why don't you go and squeeze into a carriage?"
Their high priest has always been physically fragile; he would easily get bruised and battered from a minor bump. Now, with the change from hot to cold, wouldn't he be even more susceptible to illness?
Lin Baiyan shook his head. "I'm fine. The carriages are a bit crowded right now, so I won't try to compete with them." The carts they brought were basically full of sick orcs. How could he, who was lively and energetic, squeeze into the pile of sick people?
Xiong Fei looked at Lin Baiyan with some disapproval.
The High Priest is the pillar of their Beast City. Besides, the boss had repeatedly told him to protect the High Priest before he left. In addition, his partner is the High Priest's biggest fan.
If Lin Baiyan were allowed to walk back like that, Xiong Fei wouldn't even have to think about what would greet him when he got home!
That would inevitably result in a severe scolding from your partner!
Xiong Fei wore a bitter face. "Oh, my High Priest, please don't make things difficult for me. If I make you sick again after coming out, not only will the elders in the city not forgive me, but even my partner won't let me off the hook."
Lin Baiyan looked at Xiong Fei's expression with amusement.
Yangye chimed in, "Why don't we have the high priest transform into his beast form and sit in the basket?" They could line the basket up nicely and warmly, place it in front of the carriage, and then close the lid; it wouldn't actually take up much space.
Xiong Fei's eyes lit up. This was great! This way, he wouldn't have to risk being beaten by the boss when he returned, carrying the High Priest's basket, and the boss could take good care of him!
Listening to the back-and-forth between the two, Lin Baiyan was both amused and exasperated. "How could I be so frail?"
Xiong Fei argued vehemently, "In this regard, High Priest, your word doesn't count; my boss's approval is required!"
Hearing him say that, Lin Baiyan thought of his partner who was now thousands of miles away, and his heart softened. "Alright, alright, I'll listen to you." So that when Lang Cang comes back, he won't have to nag him anymore.
Although Lin Baiyan didn't think she was as fragile as they said, she couldn't deny that it was really nice to be cared for like this.
Seeing that Lin Baiyan had relented, Yang Ye quickly gave Xiong Fei a wink. Xiong Fei then deftly found a large basket in the cart and handed it to Yang Ye. After Yang Ye arranged it, a comfortable and warm temporary nest was created.
Lin Baiyan glanced at the two orcs beside him who were acting as supervisors, smiled, and then with a smack, a light brown striped kitten popped out from under the cloak and jumped into the basket in a few moments.
"Meow meow." The kitten in the basket found itself a comfortable spot, then tapped on the side of the basket to indicate that it was ready.
Yang Ye saw the basket sway slightly, and he smiled as he picked up the cloak from the ground and covered the top of the basket. Xiong Fei set up the basket and placed it in the carriage basket, then ran to the front of the line.
"Roar—" A brown bear suddenly appeared, its roar shaking the snow in the forest. "Let's go, back to the city!"
