Hu Jiu was thrown into the beast godâs mountain after a fierce beating.
Ming Shu went down the mountain with Yun Huang in her arms. They returned to the valley slowly in the midst of chaos.
Upon learning that the witcher spirit had been handled, the clansmen all breathed a sigh of relief.
They knew their leader would make it.
The shapeshifter world had suffered a great loss this time, and everyone who survived was lucky.
Then they were busy having babies and reproducing. No one cared about Ming Shu even when she said she was a witcher spirit.
What happened to the trust between beasts?
Ming Shu was sad.
Yun Huang seemed to have sensed her sorrow. But of course he didnât know what that emotion was, and he just felt she was not very happy.
âHere you are.â
The bright flowers were tied in a bunch, and Yun Huang held it with both hands and delivered it before Ming Shu.
âWhat?â Ming Shu looked up at him. âWho taught you this?â
This little goblin wouldnât think of such a trick.
Honest Yun Huang pointed at Wen Nuan who was holding a big bunch of flowers not far away. Wen Nuan playfully poked her tongue out at Ming Shu and turned away to run into the set-up wooden house.
âYou donât like it?â Yun Huang asked cautiously as he saw Ming Shu didnât seem to want to take it.
âWhatâs to like about these wild flowers, donât mess around with Wen Nuan all day long.â Ming Shu touched his head and took the flowers conveniently, then kissed him on the lips.
Yun Huang blinked his eyes and responded to the kiss actively.
The two kissed each other for a while, then Ming Shu lay on the lawn with Yun Huang in her arms.
Yun Huangâs body was still cold. He was created by the beast god to prevent the witcher spirit from running amok and his job was to take the witcher spirit back.
âHas the beast god died?â Ming Shu asked casually and munched the grass root.
âNo,â Yun Huang answered. âIt lives in every shapeshifterâs heart. As long as you believe itâs there, itâll be there.â
âWhy does it sound like an evil demon,â Ming Shu murmured.
What Ming Shu worried about now was if this little goblin would suddenly disappear.
After all, according to him, he existed only because the witcher spirit was free and he needed to take the witcher spirit back.
That witcher spirit had been sent back to the beast godâs mountain by him, so what about him now?
Yun Huang still remained silent on this matter.
This was annoying.
Yun Huang suddenly turned over and got on top of Ming Shu, listening to her heartbeat. âDoes this mean a living being?â
He didnât have this...
So he was not a living being.
âThere are many ways of being alive.â Ming Shu put her hand on his forehead. âThe heartbeat doesnât mean anything. You are just living in a different way.â
âBut... I want to be like you.â Yun Huang sounded a little upset.
He was different from her.
He was different from everyone. They all had warmth, heartbeats, and they could smile, cry...
But he could do nothing.
âIf you are like me, you wonât be able to stay with me.â Ming Shu hit him on the forehead lightly. âIâm not a lesbian.â
âWhat is a lesbian?â
âItâs a flower.â
Yun Huang might have found he focused on the wrong point. âIf Iâm like you, will you leave me?â
He didnât want to leave her.
âYes.â
âWell...â Yun Huang paused. âThen I donât want to be like you.â
Ming Shu looked up at the clouds floating in the sky, smiling slightly, and murmured in a light voice, âYou are good how you are now.â
...
The peacock tribe was self-sufficient in the valley and the clan had a happy life.
Wen Nuan organized shapeshifters to plant things and had achieved a certain scale of production.
Ming Shu had rice to eat as she expected. But her stomach was eager for meat and could only rely on the system store to satisfy her appetite for good food.
Aura Points were in extremely short supply.
Wen Nuan found the way Ming Shu looked at her was very strange, it was like... she was looking at food.
âWen Nuan.â
âLea... Leader...â Wen Nuan stuttered. Could it be the leader wanted to have something new and try human meat?
I am not tasty!
Ming Shu asked smilingly, âDo you like me?â
Wen Nuan swallowed. â...â
This question... didnât seem right.
âYe... Yes.â
After all you are the only one in this world that come from the same place as me, and youâve helped me a lot.
Ming Shu patted her head. âThen please like me more.â
???
What did the leader meant?
Was the food I cooked for lunch not good?
Or ...
The leader has taken a fancy on me?
Wen Nuan watched Ming Shu leave with a dumbfounded look. Then she turned to Ming Zhe and asked him if there was anything weird about Ming Shu recently.
Ming Zhe shook his head. The leader was very normal.
Sheâd either go out in the sun together with Yun Huang or stay in the kitchen, which was very regular.
âBy the way, this is what you asked me to look for. Is this what you want?â Ming Zhe pulled Wen Nuan to one side. âWhatâs the use of these things?â
âThey are used for making clothes.â
âClothes?â
Wen Nuan took a look at the smooth clothes on Ming Zheâs body... She was crying tears silently.
The peacock tribeâs shapeshifters must be fake shapeshifters!
No!
The shapeshifters of bird races all had beautiful clothes! They must be fake shapeshifters! This was unscientific!
Wen Nuan went out to find the things she needed with several shapeshifters, as well as with her tired heart. No one dared to harm a peacock tribesman now, so it was safe for them to get out.
Wen Nuan didnât notice when the shapeshifters scattered away from her.
âYoung girl.â
Wen Nuan was startled and looked back in a rush. âYou... Itâs you.â
Hasnât he been handed to the alligator tribe by the leader in exchange for food?
Then the news came that the alligator tribe was killed, and they never heard about this shapeshifter again.
Is he coming back for revenge?
Luo Yan offered a âwarmâ smile and walked out from one side. âYoung girl, could you do me a favor?â
âI... IâIâI...â
âDonât be nervous, itâs just a small favor,â Luo Yan coaxed, âand itâs very simple. You are so cute, youâre gonna help me, right?â
âI...â No no no.
Stay calm.
Stay calm.
Wen Nuan took a deep breath and barely concealed her terror. âYou... What do you want me to do?â
âGood girl.â Luo Yan formed a bright smile. Different from Ming Shu, Luo Yanâs smile was mixed with neuroticism and could make everyone who saw it feel a little frightened. âWill you help bring the man staying with your leader to me?â
The man... staying with the leader? Yun Huang?
âW-why?â Does he want to snatch the man from the leader? No way... He is also a male shapeshifter!
âShh!â Luo Yan put his index finger on his lips and his tone became threatening. âDonât ask, just do as I said, otherwise...â
Luo Yan reached out his hands. Wen Nuan made to dodge subconsciously but was caught by Luo Yan anyway.
Wen Nuan felt a pain in her arm.
It felt like she had gotten stabbed by something.
She checked her arm but didnât see anything.
âYou will die. Iâve poisoned you just now. You are such a cute girl, I donât want to watch you die.â
Pois...
Poison?
Wen Nuan covered her arm and staggered back with a pale face.
What a freak!
Help! Leader!
Luo Yan didnât stop her from stepping back and just stood there lazily. âGo now, you only need to bring him over.â
That woman watched Yun Huang so closely that he didnât have a chance to approach him at all.
Heâd been observing from outside for a long time and found Wen Nuan could have conversations with Yun Huang. Sometimes when Ming Shu was gone for some reason he didnât know, Yun Huang stayed with this girl, so she might be able to lure him out.
