Chapter 435 Inquiring about the reason
As night fell and everything returned to calm, Ruan Mianmian and Sen finally settled the newly arrived gorilla beastmen in properly.
Then, they led the two adorable cubs toward their own cozy tent.
Ever since moving into this cave, Ruan Mianmian has felt uneasy. Although it has become a shared dwelling place for all the beastmen, she finds it hard to bear the feeling of being constantly under everyone's watchful eyes.
Especially those beastmen with excellent night vision, no matter day or night, as long as she makes the slightest move, she will be seen clearly.
This life with absolutely no privacy put her under immense pressure.
Therefore, soon after entering the cave, Ruan Mianmian couldn't wait to choose a secluded corner and quickly set up her tent, which she often used when going out.
In this way, she was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief and enjoy a moment of private space that belonged only to herself and her family.
When they returned to the tent, the two little creatures were already showing signs of drowsiness. They flapped their wings and wobbled to the small beds that Ruan Mianmian had specially prepared for them, then closed their eyes and quickly drifted off into a sweet dream.
After all, it was already late at night, and it was indeed time for these two young cubs to rest.
After washing up and changing into comfortable loungewear, Ruan Mianmian lightly got into bed, then rolled over and snuggled into Sen's broad, warm embrace like a docile kitten.
She let out a long, contented sigh, a satisfied smile on her face, and said softly, "Alright, now that no one else is bothering us, Sen, tell me in detail what you discovered on that snow mountain?"
It turns out that while everyone was chatting outside, Yan and Mao were talking about the roars coming from the snow-capped mountains. The gorilla-like beastman, in particular, said that he had lived there for a long time and had never heard such a roar before.
Yong's expression was a bit off at the time, and Sen also seemed unwilling to talk about it, so she didn't rush to ask any questions.
Now that she's back to rest, she finally has time to properly ask what happened back then.
Sen remained silent for a moment before slowly speaking: "The sound came from an extremely powerful snow beast. They are huge, completely white, and incredibly fast. We accidentally startled them when we approached the snow mountain that day."
Ruan Mianmian tensed up, "Them? Two of them! Weren't you in great danger back then?"
Sen shook his head. "They didn't attack anyone at the time; they just used their powers and shouted warnings. But the sense of oppression was terrifying. And I felt like they were very anxious, as if they were searching for something, and there were strong energy fluctuations around them."
"Looking for something? What could it be?" Ruan Mianmian asked curiously.
"I don't know, but I tried to get close to it, which only made the two snow beasts even angrier. To find out why, I used my powers and may have hurt them. Because the energy fluctuations were too great, the snow mountain collapsed a second time, so they hid and I couldn't find them."
Upon hearing this, Ruan Mianmian hugged Sen tightly, saying, "Sometimes you shouldn't be so persistent. If it hasn't caused you or your people any harm, then you don't necessarily have to find out the truth."
Sen gently patted her back. "Yes, that snow beast is no match for me. If we really encounter it, I can handle it. But we shouldn't tell anyone else about this, to avoid causing unnecessary panic or curiosity."
Ruan Mianmian nodded, and after thinking for a long time in Sen's arms, she gradually fell asleep, and the tent became quiet for a while.
Sen held the little female in his arms and looked at the top of the tent, thinking, "No matter why those two snow beasts came here, if they do anything to harm the tribe or its people, I will definitely eliminate them!"
