Yu Wanwan nodded as if she understood, then returned to her previous question: "But what does this have to do with selecting the female to preside over the sacrifice?"

Mo Zhou carried Yu Wanwan into the cave, with Bai Jing following beside him, answering Yu Wanwan's questions: "That's because the Beast God prefers delicate and beautiful females, like the destined person sent by the Beast God a thousand years ago. The Dragon Clan is worried that the females of their race do not meet the Beast God's preferences and will anger him, so they have no choice but to give up this opportunity."

"Huh?" Yu Wanwan's mouth dropped open.

Mo Zhou added, "Don't doubt it, that's just how the Beast God's taste is. The weaker the better, strength doesn't matter, beauty is what matters."

Who would have thought that the Beast God was also a sucker for good looks?

They entered the cave and found Fei Han sitting on a nest, her back to the entrance, her shoulders shrugging, seemingly doing something.

Hearing the noise, Fei Han turned around and the moment she saw Yu Wanwan, she immediately dropped what she was holding, rushed over and hugged Yu Wanwan tightly, spinning her around excitedly several times.

"Waaaaaah, you're finally back! I missed you so much!"

Yu Wanwan felt dizzy from being spun around by him, and she barely managed to stay upright by tightly gripping Fei Han's arm.

"I miss you so much too." Yu Wanwan hugged Fei Han's neck.

Bai Jing handed Yu Wanwan a glass of water and said, "Alright, don't stand at the door anymore, come in quickly."

The cave wasn't very big; it was dug out by Bai Jing and his group for temporary shelter. They placed three nests in three different locations, allowing them to see almost everything inside the cave at a glance.

Yu Wanwan asked, "Bai Jing, are you settling in well here? Are you cold at night? Are you sleeping well?"

Of course, this place can't compare to a home where you have everything, but she didn't expect these people to live such a rough life, not caring about their living conditions at all.

Mingming Feihan even brought her a table and cabinets, but they themselves had nothing but a nest and no furniture at all.

"Don't worry about us, we're all fine."

“That’s right,” Mo Zhou added, “They’re all male, so they can sleep anywhere, even in the wild.”

Fei Han carried Yu Wanwan back to her nest and put her down. Only then did Yu Wanwan see that what Fei Han had just ruthlessly tossed aside was actually a small wooden snake.

The little snake is sculpted to lifelike detail, with its slightly upturned tail revealing a touch of playfulness. From the fine scales carved on it, it can be seen that this little snake is the beast form of Mo Zhou.

But when did Fei Han and Mo Zhou become so close? She even helped him carve a wood carving, and she did it so meticulously.

Yu Wanwan's gaze darted back and forth between Mo Zhou and Fei Han.

Mo Zhou leaned against the wall with his snake tail coiled up, looking utterly bored, while Fei Han stood stiffly beside him, her expression tense and her eyes expectant, like a primary school student waiting for a teacher's question.

Yu Wanwan thought for a moment, then decided not to ask anyone and instead turned her gaze to Bai Jing, who was walking over with some food: "Bai Jing, what's going on? Why is Fei Han helping Mo Zhou with wood carving?"

Before Bai Jing could answer, Fei Han came over and eagerly cupped Yu Wanwan's face in her hands, preventing her from asking, "It's nothing, it's nothing, I'm just happy to help others."

Yu Wanwan absolutely refused to believe this excuse. She freed her face and stubbornly looked at Bai Jing.

Bai Jing, of course, wouldn't help Fei Han hide the truth, and told Yu Wanwan everything directly: "Because Fei Han lost a fight with Mo Zhou, he had no choice but to help Mo Zhou make wood carvings. Mo Zhou threatened Fei Han that if he dared to play any tricks, he would specifically punch him in the face next time."

Upon hearing this, Yu Wanwan burst into laughter.

She wondered what had happened between Fei Han and Mo Zhou, but it turned out that Fei Han had lost a fight and was being threatened. No wonder Fei Han was keeping it a secret from her.

Fei Han blushed deeply after being laughed at by Yu Wanwan.

Mo Zhou's eyes were also full of smiles.

After laughing, Bai Jing picked up a small, round rice ball and stuffed it into Yu Wanwan's mouth, while also slipping something into her arms.

Yu Wanwan picked it up and saw that it was a very beautifully carved wooden tiger. The tiger was lifelike and its whole body was polished very smoothly.

Yu Wanwan couldn't put it down: "This tiger is so beautiful."

Bai Jing raised an eyebrow, a hint of smugness in his usually gentle eyes: "I made it. You can take it back to Dragon Island and play with it when you're bored."

"And mine too." Fei Han took out the little bird she had carved from the nest.

The wooden bird spreads its three pairs of wings, holds its head high, and looks majestic.

Mo Zhou also stuffed his wooden snake into Yu Wanwan's arms.

It is obvious that the wooden bird and the wooden snake were made by the same person, and it seems that Fei Han carved them.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. Mo Zhou doesn't seem like the type to make such delicate little toys. No wonder he beat up Fei Han and made Fei Han do it.

...

Fei Han and Bai Jing were busy preparing a lavish dinner to feed the little female.

Mo Zhou, a partner who couldn't cook, stayed with Yu Wanwan in the cave, watching her work with three wooden carvings.

He used the snake's tail to encircle Yu Wanwan, pointing one finger at his head. His expression looked relaxed and languid, but his eyes were full of tenderness and love as he looked at Yu Wanwan.

"Wanwan, although you've lost weight, you seem to have become stronger too." Mo Zhou stretched out his snake tail, wrapped it around Yu Wanwan's arm, and tightened his grip slightly.

Yu Wanwan copied his movements, pinching her own hands and then her lower abdomen: "Of course it's firmer now, I feel like I've even developed abs."

The snake's tail wrapped around his arm and waist. Mo Zhou asked curiously, "What are abs?"
