Chapter 48 The Holy Favored Female Envoy

Jiang Xi spoke frankly and openly.

But only she knew that her face was burning, and her dark eyes were darting around as she dared not look directly at Lu Liufeng.

She could feel the intense gaze fixed on her, almost completely enveloping her.

An invisible aggression permeated the room.

Lu Liufeng's lips curled up, his voice becoming slightly hoarse.

"good."

His heart was also racing, and he felt an urge to stay that night.

The room was warm and filled with the queen's fragrance, which filled his nostrils and made him feel lightheaded and unable to think.

Lu Liufeng was worried that if he stayed any longer, he would really not want to leave, so he could only speak up.

"Then the mistress should rest early."

Jiang Xi hummed in response and opened the door to see him out.

In Mu Ling's house, not far away, he raised his wolf paw and angrily slammed it against the animal hide.

We're all animal husbands, so why is there such a huge difference in treatment?!

The sharp claws scratched the animal hide twice, leaving four scratch marks.

Perhaps he should stay?

The snow had not stopped by the next morning.

While eating breakfast, Jiang Xi heard a commotion outside.

She subconsciously looked at Lu Liufeng.

Lu Liufeng listened intently, but before he could hear clearly, Mu Ling came in, covered in snow.

He shook the snow off his clothes as he spoke.

"Quick's house collapsed under the weight of the snow."

He ruffled his neat gray hair, brushed off all the snow, and looked out with a hint of worry in his wolf-like eyes.

"This winter is probably going to be tough."

Yi Yuexi held the bowl and leaned lazily back in her chair.

"What's there to be afraid of? As long as the food problem is solved, nothing else matters."

As he spoke, he glanced deliberately at the female master.

However, Jiang Xi did not notice him.

Because she heard the noise outside getting louder and louder.

Even Lu Liufeng stood up and looked outside.

The sound of crying mingled with the wind and snow, growing louder as it approached.

Lu Liufeng pursed his lips. "One of the little ones is injured."

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of orcs emerged from the snowstorm and poured into the courtyard.

The lead orc was holding a blood-soaked little lion in his arms.

As soon as Jiang Xi went to greet him, the orc knelt down before her.

"Your Majesty, I beg you, please save Xiao Di!"

Jiang Xi didn't say much, knelt down, and reached out her hand to the little lion.

"Put it on the ground."

A shimmering green light emanated from her palm and spread downwards, enveloping the little lion.

The fire chamber fell silent for a moment, and all the orcs stared blankly at Jiang Xi, who was emitting green light.

Since the orcs and females from the Hot River Valley returned yesterday, they had vaguely heard about Jiang Xi's restoration of her manifested spiritual power.

They didn't want to believe it from the bottom of their hearts.

That's a female favored by the gods! Even in the Holy City, there are only nine, and in the vast Giant Tree Forest, there's only one.

Moreover, how could the Cursed Land possibly possess a favored female?

Legend has it that Nanas was born with an outward display of spiritual power, but due to the power of a curse, this outward display of spiritual power gradually disappeared.

Therefore, the younger generation of orcs subconsciously believed that the power of the curse also blocked the outward manifestation of the spiritual power of the favored females, just as orcs could not break through the fourth major tier.

But clearly, that's not the case.

Seeing the little cub gradually regain its life, Quirk knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Jiang Xi with piety and joy.

"By the Beast God, with the protection of the Mother Tree, we thank the Female Envoy for her favor."

"Holy Favored Female Envoy" is an honorific title used by beastmen and females to address Holy Favored Females.

Wherever they are, the favored female is a treasure of the tribe.

After all, the witch doctor's healing abilities are limited. Such a life-threatening injury would likely have been fatal without the help of the female attendant.

Lu Liufeng pulled Quirk's shoulder back and shook his head at him.

"Do not disturb the female master's treatment."

After he finished speaking, he asked again.

"What happened? The house was perfectly fine, how could it collapse?"

After all, the houses in the tribe have withstood the test of wind and snow year after year, and they are not so easy to collapse.

Quake said, wiping away his tears.

"This must be the punishment sent down by the Beast God."

“We brought back food from Jehol Valley yesterday, and the female master told us to pile it up in the house. This morning, the house suddenly collapsed, and Xiao Di happened to be inside and got crushed.”

Quake's mistress is Sena, one of the greedy females.

The expressions of the onlookers all changed.

Some of these orcs, even those who hadn't gone to Jehol Valley, knew about what had happened there.

The beastmen involved in the Jehol Valley incident spoke up.

"The Mother Tree sent down female messengers to solve the tribe's food problem, but you wanted to take all the food for yourselves, so the Beast God has punished you!"

"That's right! This must be the Beast God's punishment!"

The Mother Tree is the mother of all things.

The Beast God is the father of all beasts.

The two are the ancestral female and ancestral beast, who inherit and protect all things.

Quake looked regretful.

"If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have gone to Jehol Valley."

Of the female master's eight beast husbands, all but one stayed behind to guard the house went to the Jehol Valley to transport goods.

Although most of the food they initially gathered was stolen, they later gathered a lot more overnight and, having taken precautions in advance, managed to bring it all back.

It filled the entire room.

Among the approaching beastmen, a few females occasionally appeared, but notably, there was no sign of Little Di's mother, Sena.

Quake disapproved of the female master's behavior from the beginning, but he was only her beast husband and had no right to interfere with her decision.

But why did the Beast God's punishment fall upon his little Di?

He was filled with regret; he would do anything to make Xiao Di wake up.

This was the first time Jiang Xi had treated such a severe injury since coming into this world.

Fortunately, the lion cub was relatively small, so the area requiring repair of its internal organs and musculoskeletal system was not that large.

Otherwise, she might not have been able to save the little lion at all today.

Even so, after exhausting all his supernatural abilities, he was not completely healed; he only repaired the fatal wound and managed to wake the little lion.

The little lion opened its brownish-yellow eyes blankly, turned them around, and when it saw Jiang Xi's unevenly colored face, it let out a "woof" in fright and tried to run away.

However, his wounds hadn't fully healed, and after only two steps, he collapsed to the ground, groaning in pain.

Quirk quickly picked up the little lion and looked at Jiang Xi, the female envoy.

"My lady, how is Xiao Di?"

Jiang Xi was feeling weak, so Lu Liufeng quickly squatted down and carried her to a chair.

Jiang Xi held onto the handrail and shook her head.

"His life has been saved, but he still needs further treatment. Please bring him over on time these next few days."

Quirk quickly expressed his gratitude, then pressed the little lion's head down and kowtowed to Jiang Xi, the female envoy.

"Xiao Di! It was the female envoy who saved you, so hurry up and thank her."

The little lion was momentarily bewildered, and the painful memory suddenly returned to its mind.

He made a "woo woo woo" sound and thanked them in a childish voice.

"Thank you, Madam."

After thanking her, he felt even more guilty, blaming himself for being frightened by the female envoy's appearance.

The Queen Mother is the messenger of the Mother Tree of Life, the right-hand woman of the Mother Tree's offspring, and carries out the divine message of the Mother Tree's descent to the earth.

Being healed by the female messenger is a blessing from the mother tree and a favor from the beast god; how could he be afraid?

Among the onlookers, some of the beastmen had already changed their opinion of Jiang Xi considerably.

Now that I see that she is truly a favored female, the female messenger of the mother tree, all I feel in my heart is respect and longing, and I dare not be presumptuous or speak recklessly.

The beastmen surrounding the firebox were about to disperse.

Suddenly, someone exclaimed in surprise.

"Horen is back!"
