Su Qinglan turned towards Rong Ye.
Rong Ye crossed his arms. "They came inside without permission and demanded our food. I told them to leave. Is there anything wrong with that?"
"How can you speak like that?" Lin Mei snapped. "We are females! You should know how to treat us respectfully!"
Rong Ye sneered. "Being a female doesn't mean you can walk into someone else's house and take whatever you want."
"You!"
"Enough."
A deep voice suddenly interrupted them.
An older beastman stepped out from the crowd. He had grey hair, a broad frame, and the dignified aura of someone accustomed to giving orders.
His name was Elder Hu, one of the seven elders of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan.
He had been walking towards the city gate when he heard the commotion. At first, he hadn't paid much attention. However, when someone mentioned a nine-tailed fox beastman, he immediately came over to investigate.
His eyes landed on Rong Ye.
