[Chapter 57: The Mantis stalks the cicada]

Raulses is not dead???

Ji Xiaoou suddenly remembered that she was seriously injured by Raulses, but after waking up, she never asked about Raulses' whereabouts.

She subconsciously thought that he had been resolved by Rennes... If he hadn't died, why would he come back now?

Ji Xiaoou's heart sank, his little hand trembled slightly, slowly raised it, covering his abdomen.

After the scab marks were removed, there were three hideous and clear beast claw marks here.

Every time she took a shower, she saw it, just an inch above her navel, with an ugly scar and incompatible with the surrounding skin.

Ji Xiaoou once asked Batan about how to remove scars, and Batan told her how many medicinal herbs can lighten scars.

Ji Xiaoou tried it one by one, but unfortunately it didn't work much. The scar just faded a little and turned into a light pink color, but it was still there and could be seen at a glance.

There is no laser scar removal here, and the medical level is very limited, so it is impossible to completely eliminate these three scars.

Nowadays, whenever Raulses is mentioned, the place will be painful.

Ji Xiaoou wanted to ask any more questions, but the male orc had turned around and left and continued to search for Renn.

Ji Xiaoou had to stay in the yard and waited anxiously for news from Rennes.

Meanwhile, the Kamuda Valley edge.

A quick black figure jumped up to the treetops, his tail quietly dragged behind him, and his amber pupils stared at the leopard tribe who was walking in front of him.

Suddenly, his eyes were aimed at the orc walking in the front, he opened the mouth of the beast with sharp teeth, and rushed downwards!

The Black Panther attacked without warning and was about to pounce on Rennes. Rennes used force to retreat quickly.

The black panther pounced in the air, raised his eyes, and stopped a few steps away from Rennes.

Renn stood still, saw the black panther in front of him, squinted his eyes, "Rolses?"

The next moment, Raulses turned into a human form, with a slender figure, a black leather jacket, and a cold and indifferent facial features.

He pulled up the corner of his mouth and said freely: "I disappoint you, Rennes, I'm still alive."

He was slapped at the top of his head by Renn, and then he was thrown down the hillside, and he was in a coma for three days and three nights.

Fortunately, there is a cave below the hillside, where a rotten snow leopard lies.

The snow leopard had been dead for several days. Perhaps because of the secret entrance of the cave, the body was not taken away by other prey. Raulses didn't care whether he was bitten to death by a wild beast or for some other reason. He relied on his companion's corpse and survived the worst days and survived.

Renn's face remained unchanged and licked his teeth, "I'm really a little disappointed."

Raulses swept through the tribe members behind Rennes one by one, and sneered indifferently: "Why, you are still the leader now? When did the strength of the leopard tribe decline so much, will there be no tribe members challenging you?"

Renn's long patterned tail hung behind him, sweeping across the ground calmly, as he was in his attitude. "Of course," Renn said, "the premise is that he can defeat me."

Raulscis's eyes were cold and sharp, "Since that's the case, there shouldn't be more me."

Raulses said: "If you don't mind, I will take your position as leader."

Ren smiled, and the bloodthirsty beastly nature hidden deep in his blue eyes, and he was willing to accompany him: "If you have this strength."

"Tomorrow morning, Athletic Highlands, I hope you won't back down." After Raulses said, he turned around and jumped onto the trunk and left the place.

***

Raulses's home is not far from Rennes's house, only separated by a wall, which is also the main reason for his disagreement with Rennes.

One mountain cannot even accommodate two tigers, and one piece of land, how can two strong men be able to accommodate one piece of land?

When Raulses passed by Renne's door, he paused for a moment. He didn't know what he thought of, but suddenly jumped onto the wall and looked into the yard.

The yard was empty and quiet without a trace of sound.

A bamboo rack was built in the middle of the yard, covered with cotton, and dried bamboo shoots and dried meat were dried next to it.

In addition, the yard was neatly tidy and full of traces of female arrangements.

Raulses's leopard claws stepped on the wall and walked slowly around, but he still didn't notice any movement in the yard.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly saw the bedroom door being opened, and then a female rushed out and looked at the door in surprise, "Ren..."

The gate of the courtyard was closed and Renn had not returned yet.

Ji Xiaoou hung his head in a loss. He clearly heard footsteps just now, but why did he come out but nothing happened?

She looked at her watch and it was already 5:50, and it was dark if Renn didn't come back.

Raulses stood on the wall behind Ji Xiaoou's side, with a roof blocking him, and Ji Xiaoou couldn't see him.

The spring was chilly, and the girl was wearing a gray half-length cashmere sweater. She used needles and threads to outline the shape of a deer, under her, and a pair of sneakers on her feet. She was dressed in a strange look, and Raulses was "sneering" lightly. As expected, she was not dead yet, but she was quite dead.

Despite this, Raulses did not leave.

The warm spring sun shines over the courtyard, and the floating light passes over the girl's head, and a layer of golden yellow beside her.

The white cheeks were shining with the sun, clean and transparent.

The thick and long eyelashes drooped gently, casting a circle of shadows on the white cheeks. When they were lifted up, the black eyes were filled with worry and they had never left the door of the yard. The girl stood for a while, then sat on the threshold holding her cheek, waiting for Renn to come back.

Perhaps because the sun was too warm, she didn't sit for a long time and her eyelids gradually closed, covering her clear and bright eyes, her head tilted against the threshold, and she fell asleep.

Raulses walked out of the corner, stared at the girl's sleeping face for a moment, then turned around and jumped off the wall, heading towards his own home.

...

The sky was dim and the night was serene, and the leopard tribe was silent.

When Ji Xiaoou woke up, he was being picked up by his arms and walked into the house.

She reached out and rubbed her eyes, saw Renn's face clearly, and suddenly woke up, "Renn, there are people from the clan who are looking for you today..."

Renne stepped over the threshold with his long legs and calmed down: "I know."

Ji Xiaoou looked up at him, "Did you see Raulses? Did he do anything to you? I heard that he wanted to challenge your position as the leader, is it true?"

Renn put Ji Xiaoou on the bed, lowered his head, saw the unconcealed worry and nervousness in the girl's eyes, grinned, and suddenly smiled, "Are you worried about me?"

The little guy was not shy this time. He lowered his head and thought for a while, raised his little face and nodded seriously, "Yes."

She just worried about him.

Worry about Raulses causing trouble for him, worried about him being hurt, and worried about everything about him.

Ren's heart felt warm, he hugged Ji Xiaoou's waist, his tall body covered her, and lowered his head and kissed her enthusiastically.

Ji Xiaoou couldn't hide and was kissed hard for a while.

Until the root of his tongue was sore that his breath became more and more severe, Ji Xiaoou turned his head to avoid it and reminded him: "Hey, you haven't answered my question yet..."

Renn's forehead pressed against her shoulder, and his voice accompanied by a heavy panting, drilled into Ji Xiaoou's ears, "Hmm?"

I completely forgot what Ji Xiaoou had asked just now.

After all, he was full of thoughts and wanted to mate with her.

Ji Xiaoou repeated: "I heard that Raulses is going to challenge your position as leader..."

Renn did not deny it, and one arm was supported by Ji Xiaoou's face, "That's right."

"Did you agree?"

"Race rules, the leader must accept the challenge of any tribe."

"..." Ji Xiaoou met Ren's dark blue eyes, hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't help it, "Then will you... lose?"

Renn licked Ji Xiaoou's unpleasant little mouth, "Lost to such a guy, are you so unconfident in your male?"

Renn did not put away the barbs on his tongue coating. Ji Xiaoou was licked in pain and shrank his body, complaining: "I'm just worried that you will be injured."

Sometimes Rennes didn't know what to do with this little guy. Her little mouth was like a hook with honey, which made his heart bloody and sweet again.

"Don't worry, your male can't bear to worry about you." Renn kissed her lips again, his voice thick and heavy.

***

Every leader of the Leopard tribe is elected in the competitive highland behind the tribe.

This is not the first challenge Rennes has received since he became the leader, but it is definitely the most eye-catching one.

Who doesn't know in the clan? Raulses and Rennes are comparable in strength.

When fighting for the position of leader ten years ago, Raulses and Renne fought for a long time, and eventually lost to Renne by a slight gap.

Within ten years, Raulses was in the lower position and had been resentful about it.

A while ago, Renn was injured and disappeared and had nowhere to go. Raulses incited his tribe to elect a new leader again.

The tribe members gradually accepted the news of Rennes' death. Everyone thought that Raulses would replace Rennes and became the new leader. When Raulses suddenly lost the news. Unexpectedly, Rennes returned to the race safely and soundly.

Now that the two leopards stand together, this duel, which has been separated by ten years, has begun again.

Last night, Renn told Ji Xiaoou that she was not allowed to go and watch. Ji Xiaoou was worried. As soon as he opened his eyes this morning, he secretly came to the competitive highland.

By then Ji Xiaoou, orcs were already standing around.

The orcs were taller than the other, blocking Ji Xiaoou's vision tightly. Ji Xiaoou jumped around for a few times and could not see anything.
