Cute Beast World: Beast Husband, Memeda!

The piece of sacred wood that Xue Ling mentioned was the piece of black wood that he slowly saw at the blessing ceremony yesterday.

That sacred tree is the last remaining sacred tree in the entire sacred tree temple.

It is of great significance to the Shenmu clan and even the entire Shenmu City.

Normally, the high priest would keep the sacred tree secretly stored. Only during the Zhaohua Festival every year would the sacred tree be taken out for sacrificial ceremonies.

But what people didn't expect was that the sacred tree disappeared!

The sacred tree has no legs, so it cannot run away on its own.

The only possibility is that it was stolen!

When the sacrifice was held at noon yesterday, the sacred tree was still there, but it was missing this morning. It was probably stolen quietly between yesterday afternoon and this morning.

In order to find the thief, the high priest called all the orcs in the city for questioning to see who was acting alone between yesterday afternoon and this morning.

To put it bluntly, it means reviewing the alibi.

Those orcs who have no alibi will be called into the temple alone for interrogation.

Bai Di and Xuan Wei drank together last night, and each other can testify.

But when Bi Huan asked Xuan Wei where he went yesterday afternoon, Bai Di could no longer testify for him.

Because during that time, Xuan Wei was always alone.

He said he was staying inside to rest.

Bi Huan stared at him: "Are you alone? No other orcs can prove that you really stayed in the house all afternoon?"

Xuan Wei said calmly: "No."

Bi Huan glanced at the guard beside him. The guard immediately took two steps forward, walked up to Xuan Wei, and said solemnly: "I'm sorry, you need to come with us."

Bai Di quickly stopped them: "It's impossible for him to steal the sacred tree."

Bi Huan's voice was gentle: "You don't need to be too nervous. We are just conducting some inquiries on him. As long as it is proven that he is indeed innocent, we will naturally let him go."

Bai Di still had some doubts: "But..."

Xuan Wei said: "I have a clear conscience and it doesn't matter if I go with them."

Bi Huan smiled: "Be more understanding."

Xuanwei was taken away by the guards. Bai Di watched them leave with a hint of worry on his brows.

Bi Huan looked at Bai Di and asked, "You said you were with Huan Huan and Xue Ling yesterday afternoon?"

Bai Di responded: "Yes."

"They are not here now and cannot testify for you. You need to stay here for a while. Only when they come and make sure there is no discrepancy in what you said can we let you go back."

Bai Di said: "Xuan is not feeling well and needs to rest. She cannot go out for a short time."

Bi Huan nodded slightly and smiled kindly: "If she can't come, I can go find her. Anyway, it's only a few steps away, so I can still visit her."

He had said it to this extent, and Bai Di couldn't even find a reason to refuse.

After Bi Huan left, Xue Hui showed an apologetic smile to Bai Di: "Sorry, I have made you feel wronged this time."

Bai Di said: "You don't need to apologize, this matter has nothing to do with you."

Xue Hui sighed: "The Shenmu is too important to our Shenmu clan. We must catch the thief as soon as possible and bring the Shenmu back."

…

With Xian Xuan's previous physical condition, after being tortured by Xue Ling all night, he would definitely have to lie in bed all day and night to recover the next day.

Now that she has been strengthened by the sacred tree seeds, her body's self-healing ability has improved a lot. In just half a day, she regained her energy and can run and jump.

She immediately took Xue Ling to find Bai Di.

When they arrived at the temple, most of the orcs at the entrance of the temple had gone home, and most of the questions that needed to be asked had been asked. However, all the orcs who were suspicious of anything were detained, waiting for further investigation results.

When Xue Hui saw Su Xuan coming, he immediately said, "You are here just in time. Lord Bihuan is preparing to find you."

"What are you doing with us?"

Xue Hui said: "Bai Di said that he was with you all the time yesterday afternoon, so I want to ask you if Bai Di is telling the truth."

"Of course it's true," slowly replied without hesitation, "The three of us have been operating together yesterday afternoon. Many orcs in the city saw us, and they can all testify for us."

"Then you and Xue Ling went into the forest to mate?" Xue Hui said it as a question, but her tone was very sure.

When Xuexuan came over, Xuehui smelled her breath full of blood feathers. It was obvious that she had mated not long ago.

She slowly blushed and responded in a low voice: "Yeah."

Xue Hui glanced at Xue Ling beside her and smiled meaningfully: "Congratulations, you have finally become a regular employee."

Xue Ling raised her lips, obviously taking advantage of this congratulation.

He slowly asked where Bai Di and Xuan Wei were.

Xue Hui said: "Xuan Wei has been acting alone yesterday afternoon, and there is currently no one who can testify for him. In addition, he is an outsider, very strong, and has all the time, motivation and abilities, so he is now very suspicious. He may not be released until the real thief is found."

Xuanyuan immediately became a little anxious: "Xuanwei can't steal the sacred wood, what use can he do with a piece of wood?!"

"That is not an ordinary wood, but a sacred wood. It is said to be used as medicine and has the effect of bringing the dead back to life."

Xuanyuan insists that Xuanwei is innocent and this matter cannot have anything to do with him.

She said: "You are all just speculating now. There is no substantial evidence to prove that Xuan Wei is a thief."

Xue Hui nodded: "Yes, we do have no evidence, so you don't need to worry that we will be detrimental to Xuan Wei. In addition to restricting his freedom, we will treat him like a distinguished guest and will never neglect him."

With Xue Hui's promise, slowly he felt relieved: "What about Bai Emperor? Can I go see him?"

"Of course you can, but Lord Bihuan has specifically told you that before you meet Bai Emperor, you must go to see Lord Bihuan and tell him personally what you did yesterday."

Slowly following Xue Hui into the temple, he went up to the second floor and saw Bi Huan who was flipping through the parchment scroll.

When Bi Huan saw them coming, he put down the parchment scroll and said with a smile: "Sit down and talk."

Xuan Xuan and Xue Ling sat down on the wooden bench.

Bi Huan said: "Xue Hui should have told you everything, right?"

He nodded slowly and said yes.

"Then can you tell me where you went yesterday and what you did?"

I slowly thought about it and then recounted yesterday's itinerary in detail.

After listening to her narration, Bi Huan nodded: "What you said is basically consistent with what Bai Di said. It seems that neither of you lied."
