Chapter 461 - The Tiger Village (2) (2/2)

The tiger beastmen roared in response before dispersing.

This tiger tribe’s village occupied quite a sizable territory, yet they all lived in the tree holes. The instant they entered, several heads peeked out from within the tree holes.

According to Ford’s introduction, including Becky, there were a total of twenty-three females and more than three hundred males.

Becky had just come of age this year. Previously, she did have a male, and they lived in a tree hole by themselves. However, on the night she was abducted, her spouse was killed and that tree hole had since remained vacant.

Without the protection of males now, Becky naturally had to move elsewhere. Hence, Ford arranged for Bai Qingqing to stay in her tree hole.

The tree hole was five meters above the ground. The leopard cubs were so famished that they let out random roars. Bai Qingqing hurriedly asked Curtis to send her into the cave, and she then fed them in a corner.

The snake beastman’s arrival alarmed the entire village. With the tiger beastmen all running over to take a look, Bai Qingqing could sense the ground tremble inside the tree hole.

“No need to be nervous, everyone. They’re the ones who rescued Becky. That’s why I brought them into our village.”

Ford’s explanation calmed down the beastmen quite significantly. A female’s voice stood out above the din and entered Bai Qingqing’s ears.

“Becky, my baby.”

Bai Qingqing wrapped her body with a piece of animal skin and stuck out her head. She saw a middle-aged female dashing to Becky’s side. From the looks of it, that should be Becky’s mother.

Becky, who had been in a daze all along, suddenly raised her head upon hearing that voice with a clear gaze.

Bai Qingqing had thought that it was motherly love that had snapped Becky out of her dazed state. She was just feeling happy for Becky when unexpectedly, the next moment Becky slapped the middle-aged female’s hand away.

“Get lost!”

Becky let out a shrill scream as she hid into Ford’s arms. She suddenly burst into tears, and Bai Qingqing heard more pain in her sobs this time than previously.

“Becky?” The middle-aged female froze on the spot.

Ford held Becky tightly and gently patted her back as he coaxed her softly. “Everything’s fine now. Now that you’re back, no one will hurt you again. She’s your mother, don’t be scared.”

Becky raised her head before Ford’s chest and stared at the middle-aged female with bitter hatred in her eyes. “It’s her! It was her mate that abducted me!”
