However, this is still considered good.

The truly despicable ones are those orcs with ulterior motives.

Frostflower is that kind of person.

These past few days, she'd heard everyone praising Shen Miao, saying how many wonderful beast crystals she'd acquired, and she was incredibly envious. So many good beast crystals—if only she could have them!

Naturally, Shen Miao wouldn't give it to her; even if it was just for watching the fun, she wouldn't get a share.

Frostflower was furious and said fiercely, "You won't let me see it? Then I'll go and steal it back. What can you do about it!"

But stealing from Shen Miao's house is really not easy.

First, she has a large family, and second, her family has many wild animals, such as snow wolves and phoenixes. Either one of them would be enough to give her trouble.

However, Shuanghua is the kind of person who forgets the pain once the wound heals. She has long forgotten the despair of being beaten by Qingchen. Her heart and eyes are filled with the high-quality beast crystals that Shen Miao has hunted back.

They put all the dangers out of their minds.

She chose a time and secretly sneaked into Shen Miao's house.

Everyone in the cabin was taking a midday nap, and the cabin was very quiet. Shuanghua tiptoed, trying not to make a sound, and gently, very gently, pushed open Chenmiao's door.

Inside the room, the four cubs and Shen Miao were all asleep, while the animal skin bundle that Shen Miao had brought back was placed on the most conspicuous table. Shuanghua saw it at a glance and immediately rubbed her hands together excitedly.

Even the Beast God is helping her; Shen Miao's trip to the Illusionary Mist Forest is destined to be hers.

Frostflower let out an excited burp, quickly covering her mouth as she reached for the animal skin bundle. Just then, a voice came from behind her: "Frostflower, have you switched to being a thief?"

Shuanghua froze, somewhat afraid to turn around. Shen Miao had actually woken up. How could she have woken up at this moment!

Her brain raced, and Shuanghua quickly sketched out several plans in her mind before finally deciding to pretend nothing had happened.

Seeing that Shuanghua was still clutching the bundle and reluctant to let go, Shen Miao almost laughed in anger. "Where did your face go? Oh, I forgot, someone like you has no face."

Shuanghua gritted her teeth and said, "You've already insulted me. If I don't take a piece with me, wouldn't I be letting you down?"

In the blink of an eye, she swiftly pulled a beast crystal from her animal skin pouch, and without even glancing at it, turned and ran. But as soon as she reached the doorway, her path was blocked.

Nine-Headed Serpent stood in front of her like a demon, and no matter how the frost flowers tried to get around him, they couldn't.

With Jiuying in front and Shenmiao behind, Shuanghua felt like a monkey being watched by everyone. In a fit of anger, she attacked Jiuying directly, forcing him to make way.

As a result, she was subdued by Jiuying before she even touched him.

Jiuying grabbed her wrist, took the beast crystal from her hand, and said mockingly, "Don't covet what isn't yours."

Frostflower's face flushed crimson. She tried desperately to shake off Nine-Headed Serpent's hand, but couldn't. She roared, "Let me go! Let me go! You wretched beast, how dare you plot against me! If I tell everyone, believe me, you'll be beaten to death by the entire tribe!"

Jiuying's face immediately darkened.

Did he have designs on her? What did he want from her? Greed, shamelessness, thick-skinnedness, and despicable behavior?

Sorry, even if Jiuying can't marry a female beast, he would never want a guy like that!

Frostflower thought she had intimidated Nine-Headed Serpent, and with a smug look on her face, she said, "I advise you not to offend me, otherwise, hmph."

"What will happen if I offend you?" Jiuying asked in a deep voice, his eyes full of coldness.

Frostflower, oblivious to this, raised her chin and said, "If you offend me, your reputation will be completely ruined, and you'll become a laughingstock in the tribe. Everyone will look at you like you're a fool, and everything you say and do will become a joke."

Jiuying said with great interest, "Oh, then you are quite capable."

"If you want me to leave, I'll pretend nothing happened." Frostflower was still confused.

Nine-Headed Serpent was already gathering power, his supernatural energy flowing between his fingers. He said slowly, "Sorry, I don't know what's a joke or what's shameful. I'm afraid I'll have to ask you to demonstrate."

Frostflower became wary. "What do you mean?"

Unfortunately, it was too late. Jiuying activated her supernatural power, and a pale red light instantly entered Shuanghua's body. Her body stiffened abruptly, and the next moment, Shuanghua began to twist uncontrollably.

She was startled and tried to stop, but for some reason, her body wouldn't obey her commands.

"What did you do to me?"

Frostflower struck a pose while simultaneously letting out a horrified scream.

Jiuying stood to the side with her arms crossed and a smile on her face, saying casually, "I didn't mean to make you a laughing stock. I won't. I've decided to learn from you."

Frostflower was unable to control herself and kept tumbling on the ground. She shouted, "Stop right there, you damned beast, you deserve to die!"

After doing a somersault, Shuanghua lay on the ground again, pretending to be a caterpillar, rubbing herself vigorously. The little ones, who were dozing off, woke up and burst into laughter.

Frostflower was both angry and anxious, but there was nothing she could do; her body and hands each had their own thoughts.

"Is it pretty?" Jiuying asked the cubs with a smile, and the cubs nodded.

Jiuying then asked, "What else do you want to see?"

Erbao shouted, "Make her imitate a wild boar's call, a wild duck's walk, and a wolf sticking out its tongue!"

Good heavens, even Jiuying couldn't help but glance at Erbao. This was too cruel, but Shuanghua was worth it.

The nine infants satisfied the two babies' needs one by one.

The children clapped wildly, treating Shuanghua like a circus clown, teasing her relentlessly.

Although Shen Miao was not interested in these things, she was really annoyed by Shuanghua. She didn't plead for her and just made her do some very embarrassing things.

Frostflower's tears fell, but she was still crawling on all fours like a wild beast, with no hands to wipe away her tears, which fell one by one.

No one present sympathized with her. Although the children were soft-hearted, it depended on who they were dealing with. They hated Shuanghua for how she had treated Shenmiao before, so they had no reason to sympathize with her.

At this moment, she couldn't wait for Jiuying to torture her severely.

Shuanghua finally couldn't hold back any longer. She put her hands on her chest like a dog, lay on her side on the ground, and cried as she begged Jiuying for mercy, "I was wrong, Jiuying, please let me go. I will never dare to provoke you again, sob sob."

Jiuying said coldly, "You've provoked more than just me. If you behave yourself, I won't treat you like this."

"I just wanted to see what high-quality beast crystals looked like. I didn't really intend to steal them." Frostflower burst into tears, like a spoiled child throwing a tantrum.

Jiuying shook her head and sneered, "On the contrary, you're only here to take the beast crystal. Everything you're saying now is a lie; you just want to escape your current situation. Am I right?"
