Su Qinglan realized that the giant lion in front of her had turned into a literal statue. He wasn't moving, wasn't speaking, and was just blocking the path with a look of pure shock on his face.
She had come here with Hu Yan, but he had been pulled away by some fox beastmen who were confused about how to finish the internal carving of the tree houses.
Hu Yan didn't want to leave her alone, but Su Qinglan pointed out that the area was crowded with their own tribe members.
"What could happen to me? I'll just go inside where the females are huddled. You come find me when you're done," she had coaxed him.
Hu Yan eventually let her go, but she never expected to run into a "silly lion" like this one.
Since he wouldn't move, she just thought he was a bit slow in the head.
She stepped around his massive frame and kept walking toward the tree house where the females were. She completely ignored him, focused on her mission to get those system rewards.
