It's over.

When Xu Qiaoqiao saw Jun Qi's gaze, she silently mourned for the black bear for three seconds.

Rest in peace, my brother.

Jun Qi's gaze became increasingly "kind." He unloaded the bison from his back and then pushed Xu Qiaoqiao towards his little nest, meaning that she should go in quickly so as not to be frightened when she saw it later.

Xu Qiaoqiao obediently took the bag of fruit back home. She had only taken a few steps when the black bear's screams rang out again, followed by the sound of fists hitting flesh.

Xu Qiaoqiao: ...

Tsk tsk, he really brought this on himself this time. Xu Qiaoqiao quickened her pace.

A few minutes later.

Jun Qi came in carrying a bison. He walked to Xu Qiaoqiao's side and nuzzled her hand with his head. Xu Qiaoqiao felt this and immediately rubbed his head back.

"Waaaaah..."

The constant crying coming from the side revealed just how heartbroken the owner was.

Xu Qiaoqiao's smile faltered for a few seconds, then a hint of helplessness flashed in her eyes. Sigh, it feels like this is the standard for life from now on.

To put it simply, the place where Jun Qi lives is a semi-basement. The entrance is a bit small, so it's a little difficult to get in.

And right next to it are those stones of all sizes. If you want to live here, you'll have to dig your own hole for the houses next door.

Jun Qi naturally couldn't help the black bear dig, so he had to do it himself. However, it wasn't a huge undertaking, and he could finish digging it within a day.

However, something unexpected happened halfway through.

Xu Qiaoqiao stared at the hole in the wall that had been dug, speechless for a long time, wondering what had happened.

"Awooo!"

The black bear was on the other side of the cave, squatting there obediently. Its round eyes looked at the hole it had made, and it twitched its nose a few times. It just stayed there, not knowing what to do.

The sky is gradually darkening, and the sun is beginning to set in the west. It's about time Junjun woke up.

I reckon I'll need to exercise again after I wake up.

Never mind, it's none of my business anyway.

Xu Qiaoqiao immediately turned around and buried her face in Jun Qi's furry body, hoping that Jun Jun wouldn't be so angry after he woke up.

However, he managed to smash a hole in his perfectly good home...

As expected, after Jun Qi woke up, he first beat up the black bear, then plugged up the hole, and after that, he couldn't help but hit the bear's head several times.

However, after the battle, Jun Qi went hunting; his meal for the night was a wild boar.

During this period, as Jun Qi's cultivation level increased, his appetite also increased significantly. He had already digested the whole wild ox he ate at noon.

However, Xu Qiaoqiao felt that Jun Qi was still very happy about the arrival of a neighbor. Although they bickered and teased each other and occasionally punched each other, Xu Qiaoqiao still thought he was very happy.

Specifically, when Jun Qi returned at night, he even shared some of the food he had hunted with the black bear.

Although it wasn't much, for Jun Qi to fly his food to the other party, that would require an incredible amount of ability from that person!

When the black bear saw Jun Qi throw the piece of meat over, he was so moved that he rushed over, picked up the meat, and wanted to join them for a meal, but he found that the hole had already been sealed up.

"Thank you, boss." The black bear ate the piece of meat in big bites. He had been busy all day, and the little bit of honey he had eaten in the morning was no longer enough to satisfy his hunger.

It's a good thing that they've come and moved here.

Yes, Jun Qi went through that small hole to feed the black bear. After feeding it, he didn't say anything and simply sealed the hole back up. He seemed aloof, but Xu Qiaoqiao knew that he was actually quite nervous.

"Come here, Ahei."

Xu Qiaoqiao smiled and waved to Jun Qi.

Jun Qi walked gracefully towards Xu Qiaoqiao, and just as he was about to fall, he pounced on her and hugged her tightly, burying his head in her arms as if he were shy.

Although Jun Qi had already gotten Xu Qiaoqiao to call him Jun Jun, Xu Qiaoqiao still felt that it wasn't quite right. Besides, it was a name given to him by an elder whom Jun Qi liked very much, even though the name didn't sound very nice to Xu Qiaoqiao and was a bit ordinary.

However, Xu Qiaoqiao still used the name Ahei, out of respect for Jun Qi of this world and his elders, especially since this world is indeed a bit special.

Is it the world after the first one I traveled to, or ten thousand years in the future?

Ten thousand years have passed in between. Xu Qiaoqiao hugged Jun Qi and suddenly couldn't help but think of this matter. In the first world alone, Bai Ze had already lived for a very long time.

For him, ten thousand years is just a unit of time, like a hundred years or a thousand years.

I'll find a chance to ask Grandpa Tu sometime tomorrow. It's better to ask him than to look for it myself. If he has any doubts, I can just make up some excuse to brush it off.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, Xu Qiaoqiao felt as if her hair was being pulled. She realized that it was Jun Qi, the mischievous boy, biting her hair, seemingly because he was unhappy that she had been distracted.

"Hey, don't bite my hair, don't bite, don't bite, I'll get angry if you bite me again! It's not easy to have such a thick head of hair."

Xu Qiaoqiao tenderly removed the hair from Jun Qi's mouth. It was wet with Jun Qi's saliva, clearly indicating that it had been licked.

"Roar!"

Jun Qi looked somewhat dissatisfied, but dared not show it. Ever since he told Xu Qiaoqiao that he wanted to be together, he had become even more afraid to lose his temper in front of her, so he could only resort to these kinds of underhanded tactics.

"Hehe, let's eat quickly. Do you want it cooked? I'll get it for you."

As Xu Qiaoqiao stroked the fur, she took out a small knife and cut the meat into pieces. This knife was also a gift that Jun Qi had found for her.

Ever since Jun Qi learned that Xu Qiaoqiao did indeed eat cooked food, he went to find some food that could be used as seasoning for her. Unfortunately, Xu Qiaoqiao could only remember one thing: perilla leaves, so that was all they had.

As for salt, the most basic seasoning, Jun Qi had to ask the Tu tribe elder for directions on where to find it.

"It has to be cooked."

Jun Qi rested his head against Xu Qiaoqiao's chest, watching her actions, showing none of the imposing older brother demeanor he had displayed earlier.

"OK."

This little cave has changed a lot since I first saw it. There are many canned goods on the shelf, as well as unfinished fruit and Xu Qiaoqiao's clothes.

I estimate that once Junjun transforms into human form, the clothing here will be more than just women's clothes.
