The wicked female is extremely fierce, but she's pampered by her seven beast husbands.

Chapter 275 Giant Wood Barrier
Yuheng observed the situation of the crows in the sky, then walked to the other side of the city wall, looking at the scattered houses and crisscrossing streets in the city, his gaze falling on the green belt that had been planned but had not yet been planted.

He turned to Chongzhen and asked, "Are the seeds I gave you to plant in the green belt still there?"

Chongzhen paused for a few seconds, then nodded and said, "The seeds were soaked in water beforehand and were all planted yesterday. However, because there aren't many beastmen with wood-type abilities, the germination process wasn't completed. I was planning to go back when I had some free time and ask Yu Shaochen to bring a few wood-type warriors to help."

Upon hearing his words, Yuheng immediately felt at ease and suddenly smiled, saying, "There's no need to ask him for help."

"I come."

Yu Heng braced himself against the city wall with one hand and jumped down. After landing, he looked up at Chong Zhen, who was leaning out from above, and said, "Be on guard. Enemies may appear at any time from the main gate. If I don't get back in time, you must delay them until I do."

Chongzhen frowned and asked, "What are you planning to do?"

Yuheng withdrew his gaze, did not answer his question, and began to walk forward step by step along the main road running north-south.

As he took a step, the entire beast city suddenly became exceptionally quiet. Even the rat-race orcs who were running quickly through the city streets stopped abruptly, weapons in hand, and looked around in horror at the changes.

A powerful and profound green energy rose from the ground, turning into a pale green mist.

Countless plants sprouted from the soil and grew into towering trees in just a few breaths. Countless vines twisted and intertwined, climbing over houses and buildings to form a dense network of trees.

In just over ten minutes, the Beast City, covering an area of ​​more than 5,000 hectares, was completely enveloped in lush greenery.

Chongzhen leaned against the city wall, peering out at the city that was being rapidly overrun by greenery, his jaw nearly dropping to the ground in shock.

"Can a top-tier warrior really do this?"

He looked on in disbelief, his hands gripping the bricks of the city wall tightly, unable to come to his senses for a long time.

Only those with extraordinary abilities can truly realize at this moment just how powerful Yuheng is.

Chong Zhen thought that his power might already be comparable to that of the gods.

As the green forest barrier took shape, Yuheng finally stopped, looked down at his beast-like legs, and took a deep breath.

Protecting more than 5,000 hectares of land was indeed too much of a drain on him.

But there's no other way right now. The city is poorly defended, and even if the warriors from Shilin and Hanshan come to support us as quickly as possible, it will probably be after dark by the earliest.

If he intended to seize the city, he naturally wouldn't wait until nightfall to launch the attack.

The sooner we understand the situation inside the city, the sooner we can find its weaknesses and open a passage into the city. Perhaps it will be through underground passages used by earth-type warriors, or perhaps it will be an aerial invasion...

Before a large number of reinforcements arrive, occupy the city first, and then switch from offense to defense.

Yu Heng's face was extremely pale. He leaned against a giant tree and slowly closed his eyes.

Having expended a large amount of his supernatural power, he needs to recover quickly.

The lush vegetation is conducive to his physical recovery. As long as the forest that has been nurtured is not completely destroyed or withers and dies, he can rely on the vegetation on this land to store up energy indefinitely.

After the forest and vegetation grew, the cries of the crows circling overhead became much quieter.

The towering tree canopy completely concealed the layout of the city.

The raven chieftain hovered in mid-air, staring intently at the towering, verdant trees below. His noisy tribesmen surrounded him, many of whom were marveling at the forest that had grown so quickly. Only the raven chieftain realized the gravity of the situation.

"Chieftain, shall we continue our investigation? If we continue like this, even if I circle around hundreds of times, I will not find anything."

"How about I take a few people down to take a look? Although these trees can block our view, they won't be able to catch us once we're inside... It would be advantageous for us."

The Raven Chieftain said with a solemn expression, "Forests grow slowly over time. Most wood-type warriors can only cultivate a few green plants for their own use. How do you think this forest, which has formed in the blink of an eye, came about?"

"A high-level warrior, I suppose," the raven-beastman beside him replied uncertainly.

“Ordinary high-level warriors could never do this. Our clan has eleventh-level wood-type warriors. It takes a lot of supernatural power to grow a giant tree that is a hundred meters tall, and it takes at least half a beast hour.”

"Even a level 17 warrior couldn't have managed to grow so many giant trees, right?"

"It must have been the combined efforts of all the wood-type orcs in the city that created this forest, right? It's just to mislead us and make us believe that there are at least three or four super-high-level warriors in the city."

The raven chieftain was gradually persuaded by the latter and immediately ordered, "Raven, take fifty warriors down to scout the situation. Be vigilant about what's happening in the woods. If anything seems amiss, retreat immediately."

"Yes."

The young man from the Crow Clan named Ya Kuan immediately led fifty Crow Clan warriors and charged directly into the lush forest below.

Seeing their swooping descent, the raven chieftain sensed something was wrong, but it was too late to call a halt.

In the blink of an eye, fifty crow-like beastmen flew to a point twenty or thirty meters above the trees.

The young man named Ya Kuan slowed his momentum, hovered in mid-air for a moment, and led the way towards a place free of branches and leaves. The next second, a dark green vine suddenly shot out from the tips of the dense leaves, piercing through Ya Kuan's body and stringing him to the vine, which resembled a green snake.

The fifty crow warriors following Ya Kuan immediately tried to escape, but because they couldn't stop in time, they were all pierced one after another by the vines that had been hidden under the leaves.

No one was spared.

Red blood dripped slowly down the vines, making the vibrant, lush green trees appear dangerous and bloody.

The thousands of crow-like beastmen hovering in the air watched this horrifying scene and fell silent in terror.

No one dared to fall, fearing they would become the next victim strung on those sprawling vines.

Yuheng leaned against the tree trunk, slowly opened his eyes, and chuckled softly, "I've really reaped some good nourishment today."

He jumped down from the thick tree roots and landed on the brick road that had been hardened with supernatural power. Several rat-clan beastmen who saw him immediately pressed themselves against the corner of the wall by the street, lowered their heads, and did not dare to look at his face.

Yuheng didn't care about the stares of these people and calmly walked towards the city gate.

The vines strung with the corpses of the crow warriors, after probing a few times and finding no prey, regretfully retreated back under the thick foliage.

The chieftain of the crow tribe made a decisive decision: "Retreat immediately."

"Chief, if we go back like this, it won't be easy to explain to those people..."

"If they were capable, they would have flown over to investigate themselves." The Raven Chieftain remained unmoved and sneered, "It's not that they can't fly, and the Stone Forest and the Rat Clan's defenses are so tight that they don't have a chance to gather information. That's why they sent us to investigate!"

"These people never think of us for personal gain, but when they're planning some shady things, they always want us to be their pawns. Humph—"

The raven chieftain's men standing beside him dared not utter a word at this moment.

The Raven Clan's position is actually quite awkward. Like the Rat Clan, they are small-sized orcs, which puts them at a disadvantage in head-on battles.

However, the crow tribe was smarter and cleaner than the rat tribe, so they didn't incur the wrath of their neighbors or face blockades and ostracism. Therefore, their situation was slightly better than that of the rat tribe. However, the crow tribe was known for their quick wit and opportunistic nature, so their reputation on the Beast Plains was generally poor. Many tribes that had dealt with them a few times were reluctant to trade with them afterward, and some even subtly intended to isolate them.

Over time, they had no choice but to rely on powerful tribes in order to find a way to survive.

Having a large tribe as a backer has many advantages, and many tribes that dislike them can only keep quiet and endure it.

However, the people of the larger tribes did not regard them as human beings, because there were many small tribes like them seeking to attach themselves to others.

If this one is gone, there will be another one.

If they could just slip in a little benefit, those small, impoverished tribes would treat them like gods, bowing down to them and being eternally grateful.

The raven orcs retreated quickly, leaving only the forest raven orcs circling in mid-air.

Chief Lin Ya was somewhat anxious.

Send someone down... He definitely wouldn't dare.

The fifty Raven warriors are still hanging on those eerie vines like blood gourds.

That's the flag we use to establish our authority over them.

The meaning is obvious.

Anyone who dares to take a step closer will become the next sacrifice.

But I'm leaving now...

It would be difficult to explain to those high-ranking tribal council members when I go back.

What else can be done?

……

When Yuheng returned to the city wall, Chongzhen was holding a steamed bun in his mouth, looking at the boundless plain outside the city wall. There was no movement at the moment.

Upon hearing the familiar footsteps, Chongzhen didn't turn around. He pointed to the basket on the table and said, "Where's the food? Let's eat something before they attack. We probably won't have time to eat after we start fighting."

Yuheng casually picked up a steamed bun, sat down on the steps to the side, and asked, tilting his head, "Did you install a large drainage system underground? Did you deploy people there?"

“Most of the rat warriors are underground.” Chongzhen naturally knew where the weakness was. “And trying to use the underground drainage system I built won’t be so easy.”

Because the waterways below are closely related to the city's water supply, sewage disposal, and flood control, he made many emergency plans beforehand and also considered the possibility that someone might try to enter the city from underground to carry out a coordinated attack from the inside.

The walls of the waterway were specially hardened with high strength.

This hardening process not only used superpowers but also incorporated other materials, so earth-type superpowered warriors cannot move freely through it, not even he himself.

If the strength is too great, even a super high-level warrior like Yuheng would definitely not be able to defend against it, because the opponent can violently break through the defense.

But the process was also very long because the wall he made was very thick, and it took time to break through it.

If one enters through the drainage outlet, the flood control system can be used directly to drain the water stored in the city, and the huge flow of water can directly drown people in the sewers.

Even if they don't drown, they can be swept into the Xuemu River.

There are quite a few large aquatic creatures waiting to feed over there.

"Is this forest barrier you created alive? Is it completely under your control?" Chongzhen was very curious; he had never seen such a powerful defense before. "Can other seventeenth-tier wood-type warriors do what you do?"

Yuheng shook his head and said, "No."

"Do you think any random level 17 warrior can use superpowers to cover 5,000 hectares of land?"

"That's a pipe dream. Even if you squeezed five of them dry, you couldn't do it."

"Then you?" Chongzhen asked, puzzled. "How did you do that?"

"It's related to my racial bloodline."

Yuheng didn't hide much from Chongzhen. He took a bite of the steamed bun and found it too dry. He took out water from his spatial storage to replenish his energy. He added sugar and salt to the water. Although he didn't like the taste, the effect was immediate.

Chongzhen: "Is your Fuqing clan really that powerful?"

Yu Heng raised an eyebrow and said, "I don't think I've ever mentioned my race to you."

Chongzhen pointed to his ear: "I'm not deaf, I just heard it by chance."

"Don't worry, I won't harm you. Besides, the difference in strength between us is so great that it would be very difficult for me to mess with you."

Yuheng hesitated for a few seconds, then slowly said while holding the steamed bun, "Then, thank you?"

Chongzhen walked to the city wall, looked at the gradually darkening sky, and sighed: "Is your judgment really correct? I estimate that in another hour, it will be completely dark."

"It won't be easy for us to defend the city then."

Chongzhen stared at the city wall that stretched for more than ten kilometers, then turned around and said, "Is there any way to light up the city wall? The light from the light grass is too weak, and oil lamps are not very effective either. The city wall is tens of meters high, so it can't illuminate the area below at all."

Yuheng ate his meal slowly, nodded and said, "I have a way, but let me catch my breath first."

Even the donkeys of the production team shouldn't be treated like this!
Yuheng finished eating the steamed bun in his hand, looked up and asked, "Isn't there any meat? I need to eat meat to replenish my strength. Although steamed buns are filling, they are used up too quickly."

Chongzhen frowned and said, "The meat hasn't been grilled long enough. Do you want it raw?"

"If you want raw meat, I'll feed you as much as you want."

Yu Heng said with a dark face, "I can't eat any."

After eating cooked food, who would want to go back to the primitive life of eating raw meat and drinking blood?
Yuheng considered himself not a hardworking person, so he preferred to go hungry.

Chongzhen saw him take two steamed buns with a look of utter resentment, and then walk away dejectedly.

He glanced back at the vast forest of giant trees, sighed softly, and said, "When you're done, I promise there will be barbecue."

Yuheng didn't turn his head, but waved the steamed bun in his hand: "Thank you."

Yu Heng jumped off the city wall and inspected the ground below. It had been hardened, so even if he wanted the seed to take root, he would need to consume a lot of his supernatural power, which was not worthwhile.

However, there should have been a very narrow green belt near the base of the inner city wall. He then swung the vines and dragged himself back to the city wall, flipped over to the other side, and with a steamed bun in his mouth, he worked tirelessly to encourage the growth of a large number of lantern grasses.
