OBS Chapter 359 Unexpected Reason
Chapter 359 Unexpected Reason
Let's go back two years, to the eve of the Star Wolf tribe's annihilation.
Under the bright moon and starry sky, Wolf Night, the chieftain of the Star Wolf tribe, stood on the grassland, planning tomorrow's hunting season with Wolf Xun, the captain of the hunting team.
Wolf Night wore a slanted animal hide that revealed half of his powerful arm. "This hunt will last about six to ten days. We must return on time."
Wolf Seeker laughed loudly and said, "It was all arranged long ago, clan leader, don't worry!"
After he finished speaking, he chuckled and nudged his childhood friend on the shoulder, winking at him and saying, "Chieftain, why are you being so slow too?"
Wolf Night looked at his grinning old friend with a hint of helplessness. "You've taken almost half of the tribe's cubs this time. How can I not feel at ease?"
"Then it's time for those little brats to undergo their adult trials too!"
"Why don't you come with us?"
Wolf Night's expression became even more helpless. "Nonsense, the tribe always needs a guardian."
Lang Xun pursed his lips. Ever since Lang Ye became the patriarch of the Star Wolf Clan, his childhood friend had become unusually serious.
It's not fun anymore.
He muttered under his breath, "It's been so many years, if you were going to find us, you should have found us long ago. You've been guarding that broken thing in the clan all day long, and you've never gone out."
Hearing this, Lang Ye glared at him slightly, sighed, and changed the subject, "Don't be unreliable this time, Lang Mo is with you."
"Don't you trust me?" Lang Xun patted his chest.
"In terms of combat power, if I say I'm second, who dares to say they're first?"
Yes, he's number one in combat power, and also number one in recklessness!
If it weren't for Lang Mo watching over him, Lang Ye wouldn't be able to feel at ease.
Early the next morning.
Wolf Night stood on the rock, looking down at a group of tribesmen who were fully prepared for battle. Most of them were cubs who were about to come of age.
Each one of them was filled with curiosity about the outside world. This was a trial that every orc had to go through upon reaching adulthood. The final score of the trial determined the ranking of each orc and their position in the hunting team.
Lang Ye turned his head and looked at Lang Mo and Lang Xun behind him, "I won't say more, have a safe journey."
And so, Wolf Seeker, the captain of the hunting team, led the second and third hunting teams out hunting, leaving only one hunting team and a group of old and young orcs in the tribe.
“We took most of the young orcs from our tribe with us. No one expected that they would take this opportunity to attack the Star Wolf Tribe.” Wolf Mo’s eyes were red and filled with regret.
Lang Cang remembered this incident. At that time, he was about to come of age and wanted to go with the hunting team to undergo the adult trials, but his father stopped him.
At that time, he was very unwilling, "Why won't you let me go? I am also a warrior of the Star Wolf Clan!"
Lang Ye glared at his unconvinced son, Lang Cang, who was destined to be the young chieftain of the Star Wolf tribe and a true prodigy of the grasslands. Although he had a smooth and successful life from childhood and was not lawless, he had developed an unruly nature.
"Come with me, I have something else to tell you." Wolf Night looked at his son, who was growing up, and felt it was time to tell him about the past of the Holy Crystal.
He only hoped that Lang Cang could understand the responsibility on his shoulders as soon as possible. Since the Holy Crystal had chosen him, he had to be able to shoulder the future of the tribe.
What Lang Ye didn't expect was that Lang Cang would indeed grow into the composed and capable person he had hoped for, but at the cost of losing his loved ones.
"My father took me to the Holy Crystal and dripped a drop of his blood into it, but before he could say anything, we heard a noisy attack outside." Lang Cang seemed to recall the scene, his eyes bloodshot and his fists clenched so tightly they almost turned white.
"So, Uncle Mo, what exactly does Father want to say to me?" Lang Cang asked anxiously.
Wolf Mo shook his head. "In the clan, only the old priest and the clan leader have always known about matters concerning the Holy Crystal."
Upon hearing this, Lin Baiyan looked somewhat disappointed. So they still didn't know the story of the Star Wolf Tribe and the Holy Crystal, and therefore couldn't deduce the truthfulness of what Pig Bao had said.
Wolf Mo continued, "The hunting party headed south and soon encountered a group of strange orcs."
"Their animal form is that of a scorpion, each with a hard shell, and they are very sneaky and strange. We have hardly ever seen them near the grasslands."
"I felt something was wrong at the time and wanted to go and investigate, but the scorpions were very wary and led us into a strange forest."
They had never seen that place before. After entering, they kept going in circles. When they came out again, it was ten days later.
Wolf Mo had already sensed something was wrong. He immediately returned to the temporary camp and spoke with Wolf Xun. The two of them decided to suspend the hunting activities and return to the Star Wolf tribe.
"But it was too late when we arrived..." Wolf Mo thought of the tribe where blood flowed like rivers and limbs were scattered everywhere, and he held his head in great pain.
"If only we hadn't left..."
Wolf Mo choked up, "I often thought later that if we hadn't left, things might not have come to this."
Even if he were to die, he wanted to die alongside his people.
Lang Cang was silent for a moment, then finally spoke with difficulty, "Uncle Mo... this isn't your fault..."
Lin Baiyan took Lang Cang's hand under the table and patted it reassuringly. He then turned to Lang Mo and asked, "So, Uncle Mo, how did you end up in the West?"
Speaking of this, Lang Mo wiped his face, gritting his teeth, "You'll have to ask your Uncle Xun about that!"
"After we buried all the people of our tribe, we found the symbol left by your mother and father in the tribe. It told us to go north," Wolf Mo said, becoming even more angry.
Lang Cang nodded. His mother and father had told him the same thing, so he fled north, during which time he encountered a ground fissure.
Fortunately, he found Bai Yan, and found hope for the survival of the Star Wolf Clan.
"You know I'm not very good with directions. I always rely on wolves to find my way when I travel. Who knew this guy could be so unreliable!"
“At that time, we encountered a ground fissure. After the fissure, the mountains and rivers all changed. He thought he was going north, until one of his tribesmen couldn’t breathe and fainted. That’s when we realized we were going west!”
For a moment, the living room was completely silent; the silence was deafening.
Lang Cang hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help himself, "Uncle Xun, you're still so unusual..."
Lin Baiyan couldn't help but chuckle; they had racked their brains but hadn't come up with this reason.
"You might as well just say he's stupid! All he does is grow tall and not use his brains!" Wolf Mo bluntly pointed out the truth.
"When we arrived in the west, our people were exhausted. Then we were hit by aftershocks from the earthquake. Everyone was exhausted, so we had no choice but to settle down in the west first."
