Chapter 35 He will not go against the female master's wishes

Nakan swam out, his eyes were surrounded by dark blue, and large patches of red scales had fallen off his beautiful tail.

He smiled wryly and said, "I'll scare her if I look like this."

"Let's wait until it molts and grows new scales before we talk about it."

Yves didn't know what to say.

"Who told you to show off and accept Duan Si's duel? Luckily, he only made you lose some scales, not flesh. He was merciful."

Two days ago, Nakan forcibly accepted Duans' duel.

Even when he was in the Python Tribe, he had heard about Duan Si's abnormal devouring ability.

Unless suppressed by bloodline and higher rank, he has no rivals at the same level.

Orcs' abilities are divided into twelve tiers, with three tiers forming a major tier, for a total of four major tiers.

Legend has it that above the twelfth rank, there are also the Earth Rank and the Heaven Rank.

However, only beastmen who possess ancestral beasts and powerful beast bloodlines have the potential to break through the twelfth rank and reach the Earth rank and Heaven rank.

Since the curse descended and countless ancestral beasts perished, the Earth and Heaven ranks have been rarely heard of.

Unless the bloodline of the ancestral beast is activated, it is not as powerful as other powerful beast races.

Compared to the bloodline of the ancestral beast, the bloodline power of other powerful beast races is easier to activate.

Within the Cursed Lands, very few orcs have awakened the bloodline of their ancestral beasts.

Of the three nearby tribes, Nakan only knew of Lu Liufeng.

However, his identity is different from many others. Only beastmen with the bloodline of the Ancestral Eagle can serve as the leader of the Eagle Strait. As the leader's son, Lu Liufeng's bloodline is naturally pure, and he was born with the power of the Ancestral Eagle's bloodline.

The Cursed Lands lack energy testing stones, making it impossible to accurately determine the twelfth-tier level.

However, with each breakthrough to a higher rank, the orc's body would overflow with impurities, strengthening his muscles and bones.

Therefore, orcs in the Cursed Lands are generally classified by major ranks. Most orcs' abilities are in the first to third major ranks, and there are basically no orcs in the fourth major rank.

Due to the influence of the curse, the orcs of the Cursed Land are unable to break through to the third major tier.

However, the Cursed Lands are not without fourth-tier orcs.

The Holy City's Temple of Sacred Beasts regularly dispatches fourth-tier orcs to garrison the seven tribes in the Cursed Lands to prevent unforeseen events from occurring there.

However, due to the influence of the curse and the backward living conditions of the tribe, most of these wall-guarding orcs live in the tribes of the Giantwood Forest.

They generally do not appear in the tribe unless a breach is made in the protective wall.

Nakan is the youngest third-tier orc in the Python Tribe. He initially thought he could accept Lu Liufeng's challenge, but then he thought that Duan Si might be about the same as Lu Liufeng.

But clearly, the ability to devour was far more powerful than he had imagined.

This was only because Duan Si had stopped, otherwise, it probably wouldn't have been as simple as just losing scales.

"I'm too weak," Nakan said dejectedly.

“I heard that she also has a nine-tailed snow fox beast husband, a wolf beast husband, and a golden lion beast husband.”

The power of the fox clan's bloodline is determined by the number of tails.

Nine tails is the largest among foxes.

Therefore, without a doubt, the Nine-Tailed Snow Fox must be a powerful beastman with bloodline power.

Wolf Beastman didn't know, but the Golden Lion was the Golden Lion family of the Holy City, one of the nine great beast clans of the Holy City.

Nakan couldn't help but smile bitterly at the thought.

Yves didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only say...

"Look on the bright side. She only has five beast husbands, and all of them want to dissolve their marriage contracts. You still have a chance."

Nakan looked at him. "Do you really think so?"

"Lu Liufeng doesn't seem to be planning to lift the ban."

Duan Si...

Two days ago, even with that duel, he was certain that Duan Si wanted to dissolve the marriage contract.

As a snake-beastman, he might be able to replace Duan Si and become her snake-beast husband in the Hot River Valley.

But today, he's not sure.

Although he did not appear, he was observing from the shadows.

When Duan Si appeared with the female master sitting on his shoulders, he knew that everything had changed.

Snow mountain hot spring pool.

As soon as Jiang Xi landed on the eagle's back, she couldn't wait to find a secluded group of hot spring pools, one after another.

This makes it easier for her to switch between treatments.

She picked a few pods from the valley to wash her hair; they weren't very useful, but it was better than nothing.

As for the soap, we'll have to wait another month before we can use it.

The snow-capped mountains are cold, but the hot spring pools are warm.

Jiang Xi shakily removed the animal skin and quickly jumped into the pool.

The warmth enveloped her, making her sigh with comfort.

His skin was still dark, the poison blister on it had shrunk by more than half, and a lot of black flakes of skin had fallen off.

Jiang Xi raised her hand and rubbed it, rubbing off a handful of black dead skin. Amidst the black poison packet, a few strands of fair skin could be vaguely seen.

She was overjoyed and almost shouted with delight.

Finally! I see hope!!

Even with her strong tolerance, it was hard for her to accept having such dark, swollen skin covered in sores.

Jiang Xi began channeling her healing powers into the water.

A shimmering green light rippled across the water.

But before the delivery was finished, the sound of water being poured into the water came from the shore.

Jiang Xi turned her head and immediately cried out.

"ah--"

She quickly covered her eyes, turned her back, and her heart was pounding.

"Lu Liufeng, what are you doing here!"

"Let's wash separately! We'll wash separately!"

Jiang Xi's mind was filled with the scene she had just witnessed.

The young man was tall with long legs, broad shoulders, and a narrow waist. Beautiful muscles covered his joints, and every inch of him was as perfect as a work of art.

Behind him were snow-capped mountains and rocks, and the steaming hot spring made the naked young man look even more like an immortal descended to earth.

Of course, it would be even better if we could ignore certain parts.

Jiang Xi had never experienced such a close-up impact before.

Even that transformation outside the tribe was some distance away, and it passed in the blink of an eye.

But this time, she was so close that she could see everything clearly.

Lu Liufeng had already stepped into the pool.

He stood there stunned after hearing what the female master said.

Why did the female lead refuse him when she invited him to bathe together?

The female figure had her back to him, her slender back and her black hair rippling on the water.

“The Mistress…” he murmured.

I instinctively reached out, wanting to touch it.

But as soon as his fingertips touched her, the female quickly sank into the water, as if he were some kind of monstrous flood.

Lu Liufeng pursed his lips, his gentle and handsome face falling.

"I see."

He will not go against the wishes of the female master.

The sound of water rose again, but this time it was the sound of water leaving.

Jiang Xi, thinking about their current 'try-it-out' relationship and worried about hurting his feelings, spoke with her back to him.

"Um, Lu Liufeng, the reason I'm refusing you is because I need to treat my skin, so... so we can't shower together."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xi was so embarrassed that she wanted to disappear into the water.

But she knew that Lu Liufeng was not the kind of beastman who would enter the water without her permission.

Considering Nakan from two days ago, and Lu Liufeng before me...

She guessed that her words were ambiguous and carried an invitation.

That's why Nakan and Lu Liufeng both decided to take a bath together.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xi felt even more ashamed to face anyone.

Lu Liufeng was alright; he was the beast husband she was planning to try.

Nakan...

Oh my god!

What on earth did she do?!
