Chapter 358 Recognition
Chapter 358 Recognition
Seeing his usually silent and composed city lord so excited, the male orc warrior quickly repeated, "He said his name is Wolf Mo."
Lang Cang listened blankly to that familiar name.
Wolf Mo... It's Mo, it's Mo!
Lin Baiyan understood everything he saw in Lang Cang's expression.
He quickly patted Lang Cang, who was still stunned, "What are you standing there for? Let's go take a look!"
Lang Cang seemed to wake from a dream, turning his head to look at Lin Baiyan with a somewhat helpless expression. "Baiyan... I, you..."
He was rambling incoherently, not knowing what he was saying.
This was the first time Lin Baiyan had seen Lang Cang like this. He pulled the male beastman away, feeling the longing for home. He understood.
"No, we've never seen it before. You'll have to see it for yourself."
Lang Cang felt the warmth from his wrist, steadied himself, grabbed Lin Baiyan's hand in return, and strode out.
When the news reached Lang Cang's ears, Niu Lie and his group had just arrived outside the City of Ten Thousand Beasts.
Wolf Mo stared blankly at the towering city wall, with several strange symbols written on top. "This...this is your tribe?"
Wow, such a big tribe?
Bao Nan and Xiang Qi exchanged a glance. Clearly, the two partners hadn't expected Lin Baiyan's tribe to be like this. Wasn't it supposed to be the Cangyan Tribe?
How did it transform into such a vast city in the blink of an eye?
Niu Lie smiled. "That's right, this is the City of Ten Thousand Beasts."
"Please wait here for a moment, the clan chief will be here shortly."
As they were talking, Lang Cang and Lin Baiyan had already arrived at the city gate.
Lang Cang stood far inside the city gate. Upon seeing that familiar figure, he hesitated to approach, muttering to himself, "It's him, it really is him..."
Lin Baiyan was nearby and heard Lang Cang's murmur. He glanced at the figure not far away and, seeing that Lang Cang didn't move, Lin Baiyan reached out and nudged him, "Go, hurry up."
Lang Cang blinked. The figure hadn't disappeared, and he finally felt a sense of reality. With a push from Lin Baiyan, Lang Cang slowly walked forward.
It started slowly, then got faster and faster, until finally Lang Cang transformed into beast form and charged straight forward.
"Ouch—"
The people outside the city were only focused on examining the city wall in front of them. Lang Mo touched the wall with some curiosity and was about to ask a question when he heard a roar.
He turned his head sharply, and before he could react, he was tackled to the ground by a huge figure.
"Awooo!" The big white wolf paw pressed down on Lang Mo's arm and tentatively slapped one of its paws against the man's face.
But he has grown a lot in the past two years, and his furry paws are bigger than the face of the person in front of him.
Wolf Mo looked at the large white wolf so close to him and didn't know how to react. He could only let the wolf's claws poke his face.
Only after feeling the pain did he react, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Young...Young Clan Chief?"
Upon hearing this familiar address, the white wolf trembled, and its eyes even welled up with tears.
"Ouch..."
The giant wolf slowly moved its body aside, and after using its paws to pull Lang Mo up, it transformed into human form.
Lang Mo stood up, staring blankly at the familiar yet unfamiliar face in front of him. He subconsciously knelt on one knee, his eyes reddening, his voice trembling, "Young Chieftain, Lang Mo, captain of the third hunting team of the Star Wolf Tribe, greets the Young Chieftain."
Seeing his movement, Lang Cang hurriedly tried to help him up, "Uncle Mo, don't do this, please get up quickly."
Lang Mo stubbornly shook his head, looking up at Lang Cang before him with a face full of relief and joy, "Young Clan Leader, you're still alive, that's wonderful..."
"Why are you the only one here? Where is Lang Xun?" Lang Cang forcefully helped him up.
Lang Moqiang suppressed his excitement, "Lang Xun is still in the west. We only thought of coming to look for him because we heard news of Bao Nan and Xiang Qi. We didn't expect that you, Young Clan Chief, are actually still here."
After he finished speaking, everyone looked at Bao Nan and his wife.
Bao Nan smiled and waved at Lin Baiyan, a hint of mockery on his face. "Young Clan Leader Baiyan?"
He wasn't entirely out of the loop at the trading market; he had heard about Lin Baiyan and his group's grand entrance.
Hearing this address, Lin Baiyan smiled a little embarrassedly, "When you're out and about, you know!"
Lin Baiyan stood beside Lang Cang and said with a smile, "Cang, let's go into the city first and talk slowly when we get back."
Speaking of this, Lang Mo suddenly thought of the tribesmen not far away, "Young clan leader, there are still twenty tribesmen on the edge of your territory who haven't come over yet."
Upon hearing this, Lin Baiyan turned to Niu Lie and said, "Lie, go and bring back all the Star Wolf Clan members."
Niu Lie quickly accepted the order and left. The clan chief had found the remaining clansmen, which was a great thing.
Lin Baiyan smiled at everyone and raised his hand, "Everyone, the rest of the clansmen will be here soon. Let's go into the city first."
The group then entered the City of Ten Thousand Beasts.
The City of Beasts is currently home to six tribes. Today is a holiday, and everyone is on break. The streets are bustling with people.
Lin Baiyan led them to the temporary reception hall in the central square. The city lord's mansion was not yet completed, and a hall in the central square was specially set aside to receive guests.
After everyone went inside, some sub-orcs brought them water. Lin Baiyan smiled and said, "You must have had a hard journey. Have some water, and I'll have the canteen cook something to fill your stomachs first."
Wolf Mo looked at the handsome and composed sub-beastman before him, then at his own young clan leader. He had wanted to ask this at the city gate: this sub-beastman seemed to have a rather unusual relationship with their young clan leader.
Seeing Lang Mo's gaze, Lang Cang was unusually embarrassed. Lang Mo had watched him grow up and was considered his elder. Lang Cang scratched his head like a child, "Uncle Mo, this is my partner, Bai Yan."
He then turned to look at his little companion, "Bai Yan, this is Lang Mo. He watched me grow up since I was a child."
Wolf Mo was overjoyed. "Young clan leader, you've found a partner!" He looked lovingly at Lin Baiyan beside Wolf Cang.
Lin Baiyan blushed slightly when she heard him introduce her like that, and then called out, "Uncle Mo, I'm Baiyan."
"Good, good, good. The young clan leader has found a partner. The clan leader and Huai must be very happy..." Lang Mo thought of Lang Ye, and his voice choked up involuntarily.
When his father and mother were mentioned, Lang Cang fell silent for a moment, then twitched the corner of his mouth and changed the subject, "Uncle Mo, how did you end up going to the west?"
Wolf Mo sighed, "This all started with the hunt back then."
