Chapter 468 Welcoming the Leader's Return
Now that the main force had arrived, Ruan Mianmian naturally wouldn't leave empty-handed. She continued along the road, maintaining her consistent style of doing things—wherever there were animals or food, she would head towards them without hesitation.
Although it is not yet spring, the weather is gradually warming up and snowfalls are no longer sudden and unexpected as before.
Meanwhile, Yong and his companions were finally able to scavenge for all sorts of supplies along the way, just like their leader. This feeling of freedom made them happy and excited.
Along the way, they stopped frequently, collecting various useful items. Time passed by unnoticed, and when they returned to their tribe, it was already the middle of the first month of spring.
When Sen led Little Gold and Little Red to call out loudly above the valley, the beastmen in the valley immediately realized that their leader had returned with the main force.
Upon hearing the news, the orcs rushed out of the cave, eager to greet their leader.
Meanwhile, important figures such as Zhihe Shi quickly stepped out and stood at the front of the crowd, eagerly awaiting the leader's return.
Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted, "Look, they're back!"
Sen, leading Xiao Jin and Xiao Hong, flew majestically at the front, with Yong and his companions following closely behind, carrying various supplies.
Ruan Mianmian walked slowly in the group, holding a bunch of unknown wildflowers in her hand.
The beastmen erupted in cheers and swarmed around her. Zhi and Shi quickly approached Ruan Mianmian, their faces beaming with joy.
"Chief, you're finally back. It seems you've had a very fruitful trip!" Shi said with a smile.
Ruan Mianmian smiled and nodded, "The journey was relatively smooth. Everyone has worked hard."
Yong and his companions put down the supplies one by one, and the beastmen curiously gathered around to look at them.
"Yong, leave the things to Daman and the others. You and the tribe should get some rest. Tonight, we'll have a bonfire party to celebrate everyone's return and the start of the new spring!"
"Great!" The beastmen were immediately excited; they only felt a sense of belonging when their leader was with them.
Heaven knows how anxious the tribespeople lived in the village while the chief was away and the others had gone to provide support. Now that everyone is back, it's time for a proper celebration.
Afterwards, the tribe became lively as everyone began to process the supplies they had brought back.
The orcs who stayed behind, including Daman, first organized and arranged the things they had brought back. After that, they took out the meat needed for the bonfire party that night, which the females cooked together.
Ruan Mianmian led Sen and the little ones back to the cave to rest. Spring had just begun, and the weather was not yet particularly warm, so everyone continued to stay in the cave.
Yan and Mao were surrounded by the beastmen, who were all very curious about what they had seen and heard along the way.
Ruan Mianmian returned to the cave and stuck the bunch of wildflowers on a flat rock. Sen followed behind her and asked with concern, "Ruan Ruan, are you tired?"
Ruan Mianmian shook her head and said with a smile, "Although the journey was tiring, I gained a lot and I'm not tired at all."
The little cubs ran around happily in the cave, full of life. Little Gold and Little Red weren't just the leader's cubs, but also good friends to all the other cubs in the cave. When they saw them return, everyone chattered excitedly, calling them to play together.
As evening fell, the bonfire party officially began. The roaring flames illuminated the entire valley, and the orcs sat around the bonfire, their laughter and chatter filling the air.
The females served up fragrant roasted meat, and everyone enjoyed it immensely.
Ruan Mianmian stood up and said loudly, "A new year has begun. I hope everyone will have a good harvest in the spring, and that the tribe will become more and more prosperous!"
The orcs shouted and raised their glasses in celebration, rejoicing at the return of their leader and people, and at the arrival of the new spring.
In this lively atmosphere, everyone in the tribe had a happy smile on their face, and they were full of expectations for the new year.
