"Heh, now that you're in a relationship, why are you still showing up on my turf!"

As she spoke, Beryl pinched Guo Xiaoxiao's chin with her hand.

"What is your relationship with me?!"

Guo Xiaoxiao was caught off guard and startled by the sudden threat. This massive body was far beyond her capabilities; it seemed capable of crushing her with a single effort.

"You're asking for it!!"

Beryl raised her hand to slap Guo Xiaoxiao, who was still single, waiting for Cang Jue. Before the slap could even land...

But Cang Jue grabbed his wrist and said fiercely, "Enough!"

"Azure Extinction"

"Try touching her again."

Cang Jue grabbed Bo Li's wrist and twisted it hard. The sound of bones dislocating made everyone gasp.

"Ah~" Beryl screamed, clutching her arm and groaning in pain.

The bear-beast that had been observing from the sidelines transformed into human form, becoming even more muscular and half a head taller than Cang Jue.

He was very handsome, with thick eyebrows and large, piercing eyes. He had a strong, muscular build, exuding a powerful aura. His muscles were incredibly defined, making him a truly broad-shouldered and imposing figure. At this moment, he glared at Cang Jue and Guo Xiaoxiao with a sinister expression that instilled fear in them.

Guo Xiaoxiao unconsciously swallowed. This male was truly terrifying, even more frightening than when she first met Carlos.

Cang Jue released Bo Li's wrist and pulled Guo Xiaoxiao into his arms.

"Who told her to try and harm a female? What, you want revenge for her?"

Beryl was in so much pain that she was drenched in cold sweat.

"Cang Jue, you've gone too far! You abandoned me, and now you're treating me like this? I misjudged you!"

After yelling, Beryl turned and glared angrily at Guo Xiaoxiao.

"Ahui killed them."

Cang Jue wasn't afraid of fighting, but he couldn't let Guo Xiaoxiao misunderstand, especially since Guo Xiaoxiao's gaze towards him already showed suspicion.

It's not impossible that Cang Jue, who usually has many tricks up his sleeve, has incurred some romantic entanglements and someone has come knocking on his door to settle scores.

Guo Xiaoxiao raised her head

"Hey, have you been doing something shady behind my back? What did you promise her?"

Cang Jue was stunned. Oh no! Being misunderstood was a serious matter. He quickly explained.

"No, absolutely not. I'm completely devoted to you, how could I possibly be interested in her? Besides, there were many orcs in the northern continent at that time, I was busy all day, how could I have time?"

Guo Xiaoxiao: "Then why did he say you agreed to be her male? Was she lying?"

Beryl was even angrier; how dare she question him?

"Shut up! None of you will leave here alive today!"

Ahui nodded and threw a punch at Cang Jue. Cang Jue reacted quickly, jumping aside with Guo Xiaoxiao. Ahui missed his target, and Cang Jue looked at him disdainfully.

"You think you're worthy?"

Beryl: "You lied to me. I've waited for you for so long, rejected so many orcs, and now you come to me saying you've found a partner? Why didn't you say so before?"

Cang Jue was completely confused. They had fled to the northern continent, and at that time he and Guo Xiaoxiao were already a couple. It was absolutely impossible for him to agree to a female's request to be her male for no reason.

"You've mistaken me for someone else. I do know you very well, but I didn't say those words."

Beryl: "I must have been blind to wait for you all this time. You really don't remember me? I was fleeing in the north, attacked by orcs, and no one helped me. You helped me."

"Look, we're outnumbered, and I'm the only female, so I'm saying I won't take anything from you. You can all run as far away as you can."

Cang Jue's mind clicked; it was true, that was indeed the case. He had helped them by striking them with lightning, but there was a reason behind it.

They brought a lot of food, and since Cang Jue hadn't finished his share that day, he took a large portion of their food as well. However, he never admitted to wanting to be anyone's male mate.

Cang Jue: "That's right. I helped you drive away the orcs, and you gave me food. Nobody lost out, right?"

Beryl: "But after you flew away, you threw me a knot from the sky."

What is this thing again? Based on their actions, Guo Xiaoxiao genuinely believed in Cang Jue; he wouldn't betray her, would he? But she desperately wanted to understand the reason behind everything.

Cang Jue's expression changed.

"My garden knot was with you, give it back to me, it wasn't meant for you."

Guo Xiaoxiao asked, "What is a knot?"

The hyenas who hadn't left yet had already transformed into human form and were explaining to Guo Xiaoxiao...

"Female, you don't even know what a knot is? It's something the male gives to the female to express his affection."

"If a male presents a female with a knot and the female does not refuse it, it means that the two will definitely become mates in the future."

Guo Xiaoxiao turned to Cang Jue and questioned him again: "Did you give it to me?"

Cang Jue: "I was going to give it to you, but somehow it ended up in her hands."

Cang Jue wasn't lying. How could he possibly abandon Guo Xiaoxiao to find a female he barely knew and hadn't even exchanged a few words with?

He used to keep the ring on his person, intending to give it to Xiaoxiao, but then Guo Xiaoxiao was taken away by Carlos, and they lost their star ring, so he forgot about it and left it behind.

Beryl: "That's right, they clearly gave it to me, and now they're saying they're going to be partners with someone else. Isn't that humiliating?"

Cang Jue didn't give her face just because she was female.

"What humiliation am I talking about? Give me back the knot! You stole it, and I haven't even settled the score with you yet!"

She stole from him, and Beryl became even angrier, her face contorted with rage, she roared...

"You're talking nonsense. I wouldn't even want a lowly male like that."

Beryl threw the knot on the ground and stomped on it.

The hyena tribe isn't afraid of Cang Jue, but they are terrified of the orc who follows Beryl. That orc is Beryl's admirer, a four-star ring orc, and their chieftain of the bear tribe. The situation has become complicated. Let's wait and see; don't act rashly.

Ah Hui: "Boli, I killed them both. How about you and I become partners?"

Ah Hui is almost 70 years old. He has a special affection for Beryl, whom he watched grow up since she was a child. They live across the street from each other, and he often brings them food. Beryl's mother is also convinced that Ah Hui will become her daughter's mate.

Fortunately, he lived up to expectations, rising from a two-star level to a four-star level, and is now the chief of the Huangyan tribe.

Once, due to a moment of carelessness, they fled to the northern continent and got separated from Beryl. When they were found again, there was another infatuated man named Cang Jue.

They had already exchanged vows, assuming that after only a few days apart, the two had secretly pledged their lives to each other. Ah Hui's resentment towards Cang Jue, whom he had never met, reached its peak. But there was nothing he could do; Bo Li was determined and dared not marry him, insisting on waiting for Cang Jue to do so first.

once…

As a child, Beryl loved to cling to Ahui, but as she grew older and became more aware of things, she gradually distanced herself from him. Ahui didn't care, as long as she was one of the males in their group.

The two had already made an agreement, but her infatuation with Cang Jue had reached a point where she couldn't tolerate anyone else. A sense of fear spread unbearably through Ahui's heart.

Finally, I saw Cang Jue. He was quite ordinary; his frail body paired with a thin female was rather a good match.

Neither of them will be leaving today. According to the original plan, his baby would have been born in winter, but because of Cang Jue…

Beryl was overwhelmed by shame and excitement
