Clumsy Beast, Keep Your Paws Off novel Chapter 334

Chapter 334: Chapter 334: A Spy?

Xuan Long stopped and looked at her. He was amazed by her quick thinking.

While everyone else was busy crying and praying, she was analyzing the enemy like a true warrior.

He nodded slowly, his emerald eyes turning cold. "Your words make sense, Lan Lan," Xuan Long said.

"Wild beasts do not gather in thousands for no reason. This possibility cannot be ruled out. If someone is leading them, then this is not a ’test’ from a god...it is a trap set by a person."

"And what, God? Those being in the upper realm don’t even care about them... it’s only the people in the lower domain who associate everything with the beast god..."

Su Qinglan clenched her fists. "I won’t just sit and wait to be protected. If someone is leading them, we have to find out who, and we have to find out how they are doing it."

When they reached the treehouse, Su Qinglan did not waste a single second.

She gathered all three cubs...Xiao Yi, Xiao Er, and the tiny Xiao San and placed them securely into a large, sturdy basket.

She couldn’t leave them behind, and she couldn’t stay still while the tribe was in danger.

"Xuan Long, we are going out," she said firmly. "I need to explore the mountain. If there is something here attracting the evil ferocious beasts, we have to find it now."

Xuan Long did not argue. He understood that his mate was not a delicate flower who would hide in a corner.

With a nod, his body began to expand. His skin turned into shimmering green scales, and in an instant, he turned into his huge snake form.

Su Qinglan carefully climbed onto his broad crown, holding the basket of cubs tightly against her.

They left the tribe and began to circle the mountain. Xuan Long moved with incredible speed and silence, gliding through the thick forest like a dark ghost.

They checked the caves, the water sources, and the deep ravines. Su Qinglan kept her eyes wide open, looking for anything strange...a weird smell, a glowing plant, or any hidden trap.

However, after checking almost the entire mountain, they found nothing suspicious. The forest seemed normal, yet something felt wrong.

As they were finally heading back toward the village, Su Qinglan happened to glance up at the graying sky. Her eyes narrowed. High above them, a big bird was circling.

At first, it looked like a common eagle, but Su Qinglan realized it had been rotating over the same small area for a very long time.

In the village, no one would have noticed it. Everyone was too busy crying or packing to look at the sky. But Su Qinglan felt a prickle on the back of her neck.

She felt like those bird’s eyes were actually keeping them under a constant watch. It was a feeling she remembered from her old world...the feeling of being hunted.

"Xuan Long, look up," she whispered, leaning down toward his ear.

"That bird hasn’t moved from this circle since we started our return. I think we are being watched. Someone is using that bird to track our movements."

Her eyes became cold and hard. "Can you take him down? I want to see if that is just a wild animal or a beastman spy."

Xuan Long looked up, his golden-emerald slit pupils locking onto the distant speck in the sky.

He let out a low, vibrating hiss of agreement. He didn’t need a second invitation to strike at something threatening his mate.
