In this beast world, there are many kinds of plants. Common herbs are easy to obtain, but spiritual herbs that can cure supernatural abilities are hard to find.

Even ordinary beastmen would find it difficult to discover spirit herbs.

She was secretly dreaming about improving her superpowers as soon as possible.

Just then, a tall orc wearing a new animal skin and with slightly disheveled hair suddenly appeared on Ling Yunxi's way back.

He stood there like a soulless corpse, floating on air.

When Ling Yunxi looked up again, she was already very close to the orc.

"ah!"

The sudden appearance of a living orc startled Ling Yunxi.

Looking at the still intact morning dew in her hand, she breathed a sigh of relief.

He gripped the bamboo tube tightly, swallowed hard, and tentatively asked, "You...who are you?"

The orc suddenly raised his eyes, his unfocused gaze returning to focus.

He then took a step forward, gradually approaching Ling Yunxi.

Ling Yunxi frowned and retreated.

Finally, the two were pressed against the tree trunk.

...

As the moonlight faded, a ray of morning light shone down through the treetops.

Ling Yunxi then recognized the man as Pu Shangji, the one she had rejected in front of everyone yesterday.

Pu Shangji leaned closer, one hand braced against the massive tree trunk.

His eyes were icy cold, filled with suppressed anger, as he stared directly into her wide-open eyes.

Facing Pu Shangji's angry glare, Ling Yunxi calmed herself down: "About yesterday..."

“Yesterday,” Pu Shangji began in a low voice.

With his other hand, he pinched her chin, forcing her head to lift slightly.

His lips were very close to hers, his Adam's apple bobbed, and his voice was low and husky with suppressed emotion: "Why did you refuse to travel with me?"
