"Humph!"
A male and female pair of rabbit-eared beastmen jumped down from the tree seeing Yuna run away, pacing around Lin Feng and closely observing this unwelcome guest.
Lin Feng sat on a tree stump, similarly observing them as well.
Rabbit ears are so cute too...
Lin Feng had seen a few beastmen of the White Feather Rabbit Tribe with rabbit ears at the slave trader's place where he bought Yuna earlier.
However, the environment there was poor, and the beastmen were all dirty with their fur matted together.
These two wild ones had shiny, fluffy fur and were especially spirited. No matter whether they were male or female, they made one especially want to touch their ears.
Beast ear girls
From their conversation, Lin Feng estimated they should have a sister-brother relationship, as they kept addressing each other as sister and brother.
"Let's kill him, just to build up your courage." The female beastman took out a bone dagger and handed it to her brother.
But her brother shrank back timidly, looking very reluctant.
"Or let's not make trouble..."
"Take it and kill him!" the female beastman yelled angrily. "How many of our kind have been taken by humans? And you're still soft-hearted about this? Have you forgotten how dad died?"
Lin Feng watched with interest as the two argued.
He had to say, that female beastman had quite an impressive figure. Every time she yelled, her breasts would shake along with her body.
Just as Lin Feng was enjoying the view, the male beastman came over with dagger in hand, still shaking all over.
"Are you going to kill me?" Lin Feng asked with interest.
"Shut up!"
The bone dagger stabbed towards Lin Feng's heart.
But it mysteriously stopped two to three centimeters away from Lin Feng.
He tried to push harder, but the dagger didn't move an inch.
Then, as if grabbed tightly by another invisible hand, he couldn't even let go now.
"What are you dragging your feet for? It's just a stab, is it that hard?"
"Sis, my hand..."
Seeing something was wrong, the female rabbit quickly leapt back several steps to pull away, and once at a distance, drew her bow to shoot at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng let out a breath and spoke as the arrow left the bow: "Deflect."
The arrow that should have shot straight through Lin Feng's throat strangely veered off course halfway as if struck by something.
The female rabbit was stunned speechless, but quickly nocked two more arrows after recovering.
"Faint."
In a flash, the two beastmen's eyes shook, and strength left their bodies as they slumped unconscious to the ground together.
So stupid.
Lin Feng was certain they would come down to make trouble once Yuna left.
If they had just stayed in the tree, who knows if they could have caught him instead.
He tied up the two beastmen securely and sat waiting for Yuna's return.
But after waiting a while, he didn't even see Yuna's shadow.
Bored, he glanced down at the female rabbit and fell into thought.
"Appraise."

Cute beast ear girl
Although her stats are quite inferior compared to Yuna's, however...
Her figure is without a doubt extraordinarily superb.
I was planning to sell these two to the slave merchants, but now I can only sell her brother.
And her... perhaps I can keep her at home as a servant!
Lin Feng looked over Emily's detailed data, with her height, measurements, and weight all displayed.
Beast ear girl
Heavens, there's still room for growth even at this level!
As a lover of beast ear girls, she must stay! She must!
"Master..."
The familiar voice came from behind.
Lin Feng looked back to see the dispirited Yuna.
Without even asking, Lin Feng already knew what had happened.
"I've caught these two, want me to go look with you?"
Yuna held back her tears as her nose turned sour.
The forest was so big with countless beastmen...
It was like finding a needle in the ocean to look for Yu Li.
But as long as there was a sliver of hope, Yuna didn't want to give up.
"Master, why don't I take you back first. I'll go look myself, and if I still can't find her after a few days, I'll come back to find you. Is that okay?" Yuna pleaded as she rubbed her slightly reddened eyes.
"No need to look anymore." Emily suddenly spoke up.
Who knows when she had woken up.
Her brother was still passed out.
"Some human mercenaries came here to raid a few days ago and took many of our kind. Your sister was also taken by them."
Yuna's eyes widened in shock.
This news was like a bolt from the blue for her.
To be sold into slavery... the fate would be too horrible to imagine.
Yuna fell into despair, the light leaving her eyes.
Lin Feng raised his brows at Emily: "You know her sister?"
"I watch over this area, and I've seen her bring her sister around more than once, so of course I know her." Emily's eyes bored into Lin Feng.
Lin Feng appraised her again. She wasn't lying.
"I do want to save her, but there were too many human mercenaries back then, a black mass of people. I could barely protect myself."
Yuna stared blankly at the sky without a word.
"Master... let's go back. My sister can't be found anymore." She was utterly dispirited.
Seeing her like this pained Lin Feng's heart.
He hated to see girls sad and distressed the most.
Also, the system quest wasn't complete yet, it would feel awful to leave it undone.
He hated accumulating quests the most.
And he was very curious what would happen to Yuna's favorability if it dropped too low.
He must find her sister!
"Yuna, don't worry. No matter what, I will help you find your sister even if we have to go to the ends of the earth. I will definitely bring her back to you."
"Master..."
And if she really was caught by slave traders, it shouldn't be too hard to find her.
Lin Feng's thoughts instantly became clear.
There were only so many slave merchants in Lance City, and the Silver Wolf Tribe was so rare.
It wouldn't be hard to locate her.
"Yuna, I already have a way."
Yuna rubbed her eyes and looked earnestly at Lin Feng. "Really?"
"Why would I lie to you? There's only so many slave traders, it'll be easy to find her." Lin Feng reached out and pinched Yuna's cheek, then continued, "Don't cry anymore in the future."
Yuna didn't seem to particularly reject physical contact, so testing the waters a little should be fine.
"I didn't cry..."
Yuna wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, then stared wide-eyed at Lin Feng.
Her mood seemed to have improved somewhat.
Just then, the writhing Emily on the ground caught Yuna's attention.
Yuna glanced down at Emily and gave a bitter laugh. "Master, what do you plan to do with them?"
"What can be done, sell them to the slave merchants of course." Lin Feng decided to first take Emily to get a price estimate from the slave merchant.
Although he really wanted to keep her, he could still let go if the price was right.
Hearing this, Emily's eyes widened.
She had just wanted to call for help when Lin Feng threatened in her ear, "If you dare yell, I'll kill you both on the spot."
She instantly fell silent.
The moment she heard the answer, Yuna's expression darkened. "Master, most slaves live in great pain. Please let me end their suffering... I'll pay you back the money."
With drooping ears, Emily seemed to have accepted this reality.
"I was lucky to have met Master. Most will only encounter beasts."
Lin Feng pondered for a moment.
If he was her master, she should be able to reluctantly accept that right?
At this time, Emily pleaded in a small voice, "I'll do anything, but please spare my brother..."
Lin Feng smiled smugly, pacing back and forth for a bit before slowly squatting down in front of her. "Will you be my slave?"
Emily hesitated for a moment, her gaze shifting to Yuna.
Yuna sighed. "Agree to it. As you can see, he is a kind human. If your master is him, you at least won't live in pain."
Having received a definite answer, Emily bit her lip and nodded.
Lin Feng was a man of his word. He untied the ropes binding her brother, then brought Emily away forcibly.
"Let's go, I'm taking you to get a slave imprint at the slave trader's."
Emily looked back reluctantly at her brother.
This parting, I don't know if there will be another chance to see my younger brother...
