How Snake Flame managed to shake off suspicion of being a member of the Lion Clan and pull off a clever act of stealing grain right under their noses is a story for another time.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yu Ling has expanded the spread of the Beast God faith, which was only among the cubs, to include the snake females who are bored during their egg-laying season.

In the beastman world, males who need to win the favor of females often need to have outstanding appearances to capture their hearts and produce their offspring. Having grown accustomed to the effeminate appearance of their snake-like kin, the sight of this sweet-looking, harmless rabbit brother was a refreshing surprise.

Yu Ling received unanimous praise from all the female snakes. Taking advantage of the situation, after arranging for the little snakes who were responsible for telling the stories of the Beast Gods to the smaller snakes, Yu Ling modified the 'melodramatic love story' version of "The Love Story of the Beast Gods" that she had made for the little snakes and told it to the pregnant, laying, and postpartum snake sisters one by one.

As it turns out, females in every world cannot resist this epic love story. The more they hear, the more they yearn for a wonderful encounter with a majestic and powerful being. When the story of the Beast God being misunderstood and disappearing is told, their cries are no less loud than those of the little snake cubs.

After recounting this melodramatic and over-the-top story, Yu Ling, in order to better enhance the atmosphere, put on a passionate performance, almost becoming deeply moved by her own tale.

Watching the audience either immersed in self-absorption after projecting themselves onto the story, incorporating the Beast God into their dreams, or being brought to tears by the story's harshness, pitifully wiping away tears with the tip of their tails, Yu Ling felt incredibly proud.

So he has this talent. If I travel to an ancient world again, I might become a storyteller.

"The Beast God is so pitiful." The female snakes listened to the story just like the little snakes, always wanting Yu Ling to continue and not letting her rest. They listened to it from beginning to end with great interest, and then asked similar questions, "What do you think, little rabbit? The Beast God must still be alive, right?"

Yu Ling's answer was much more restrained: "The Beast God will live forever in our hearts."

Although they don't believe that such a perfect being truly exists in the world, as long as Yu Ling replaces the descriptions of the Beast God's greatness with "handsome, heroic, domineering, powerful, and incomparable," thus satisfying the females' fantasies about their dream lover, one day they will believe, through constant mental conjecture, that their beloved dummy is real.

The side quest progress has increased by one again. Now it just needs time to unfold. Yu Ling has been in the Snake Clan for quite some time now. After successfully completing the quest, it's time for her to return to the Wolf Clan to continue being a priestess.

“Snake Gray, the little snakes are very obedient now, you don’t need to make that face…” Yu Ling was about to leave, and since Snake Flame wasn’t around, she naturally had to say goodbye to the only two adult male snakes she knew, Snake Gray.

Why is Snake Ash looking so reluctant to part with her?

He had heard about all the pranks Snake Gray had played, but the little snakes who had heard his stories were now focused on becoming better so that their souls could return to the embrace of the Beast God after death. They had no time to play around.

But Snake Gray didn't believe it. He just thought that cute rabbits were more popular with cubs. The thought that his wonderful life would come to an end after Yu Ling left made him unhappy.

Rabbit! You can't leave! How can I live without you, Rabbit!!!

It was a pity. No matter how reluctant he was, Yu Ling was now a priestess of the wolf clan and had to return eventually. In the end, he personally escorted her to the edge of the snake clan's territory. He had to guard the home and couldn't leave the snake clan, otherwise he might just kill his way into the wolf clan to demand her back.

Yu Ling returned empty-handed. Although the little snakes, the snake sisters, and Snake Gray all offered to give him gifts and food, and asked him to take back the prey he had given to Wolf Gu as an apology, Yu Ling refused to accept anything.

As long as he waits for Snake Flame to return, he won't blame him for leading the little snakes astray and causing him trouble. He's really too embarrassed to take these things!

As a rabbit with good stamina, Yu Ling has no problem traveling or protecting herself, but she is still slightly lacking in hunting compared to the wolves. Sparring and the death throes of prey are not the same thing; it is both time-consuming and laborious. She did not intend to waste time on the road and went straight back to the wolf tribe.

The first thing she did upon returning was, of course, to report to the old priest. Yu Ling gave a slightly modified account of what had happened in the snake clan, essentially saying that she was fine and doing well. Wolf Gu, upon hearing this, also came to visit Yu Ling. His expression was complicated; he blushed and thanked her, then left after bringing the prey, leaving Yu Ling completely bewildered.

Is that silly wolf alright? Why bring him food when a cold front is coming?

Yu Ling never worried about these things. She still had plenty of the spirit liquid she had diluted with water from last time. If anything happened, she could just take a drop. Not to mention hunger, disease, or injury, her lifespan could increase dramatically, making her comparable to those long-lived turtles. She wouldn't have to worry about the main quest at all.

When it comes to missions, the wolf tribe is not as easily fooled as the snake tribe, which has never even had a priest. Their impression of the beast god is already solidified, and they have their own way of raising children. The snake tribe's methods cannot be replicated here. So Yu Ling chose to continue praying here peacefully, healing the injured beastmen, and waiting for the opportunity to complete the mission.

...All accidents happen unexpectedly...

On this day, Yu Ling had just finished a busy day as a priest. After bathing in the river, he returned to the shrine and was preparing to rest. Since he had been in beastman form, it was difficult for him to dry himself off in an animal-like manner. At this moment, his soft, fine hair was wet and lay on his forehead, and his rabbit ears were shaking off water.

Just then, a familiar wolf figure rushed straight towards him.

"Wolf Night? What brings you here?"

Yu Ling was puzzled by Lang Ye's panting appearance. He had just passed his coming-of-age ceremony and had already started hunting with the hunting team. He should have been asleep by now to conserve his energy for the next day's hunt. Why was he looking for her?

Wolf Night ran up to Yu Ling and grabbed his arm without saying a word, trying to pull him away. Yu Ling didn't react for a moment and ran a few steps before shaking him off. She said with a hint of anger, "What exactly happened? I need to be prepared, right?"

"I'm sorry, Priest Rabbit White, I was too hasty." Wolf Night finally regained his senses from his chaotic mind and said anxiously, "The chieftain has been poisoned by snake venom, you must go and see him quickly!"

Yu Ling had stayed in the snake clan before, and Lang Ye was probably just trying anything as a last resort. Yu Ling went back to the ancestral hall to get some medicine and followed Lang Ye towards the clan chief's residence, asking:

"Has the old wolf priest gone to check on it? What did he say?"
