Aoki's eyes lit up, and he smiled broadly.

"The hunting party is back! The Wolf King is back."

Fox Snow, carrying a fragrant bowl of tofu pudding, smiled and placed it in front of Sheng Xia.

"Sister Xiaxia, dinner is ready."

The refreshing scent of jasmine emanating from him was so close, his bright, fox-like eyes were full of smiles, and his deliberately lowered voice was clear and alluring.

In the height of summer, she couldn't help but look over, and their eyes met. His eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she felt her heart tremble.

"Sister Xiaxia, eat quickly, it'll get cold soon."

Sheng Xia felt her cheeks getting warm and her heart racing; she unconsciously clenched her hands.

evildoer!

"Aoki, shall I go to the plaza with you?"

As Shengxia watched Qingmu and the others pack up to leave, she thought of Wolf King, whom she hadn't seen in a long time, and a wave of longing washed over her.

Her eyes sparkled as she looked at Aoki expectantly.

Aoki's heart softened. He leaned over and kissed her soft red lips, then picked her up with one hand.

"Of course, let's go."

Where's the baby?

Summer reached out and wrapped her arms around Aoki's neck, nuzzling her fluffy head against his shoulder.

"The baby is sleeping upstairs. I'll go watch him. You two can play without worry."

Fox Snow volunteered and then turned and went upstairs.

Sheng Xia smiled and sighed inwardly, thinking how easy it was to raise the beast world child; she didn't have to worry about him at all.

Aoki carried Shengxia out, nodded to Yang Yun who was waiting at the door, and they strolled slowly toward the square side by side.

As soon as I stepped outside, I saw many females accompanied by their partners.

"Xiaxia, let's go together."

"OK."

Along the way, they encountered Xiong Huahua, and then Cao'er, Xingyin, and Sifu.

By the time they arrived at the square, they had become a large, imposing force.

Among the beasts, Shengxia spotted the tall and elegant Wolf King at a glance.

No matter how many beasts there are, he is always the one who gets noticed at a glance.

In the height of summer, she was overjoyed, watching him smile brightly.

The wolf king smiled gently, his gaze tender and affectionate. He stared at her across the pack of beasts, his deep affection undisguised, surging like a tidal wave.

The females nearby happily searched for their respective hunting partners.

Wolf King smiled and slowly walked over, pulling Shengxia into his arms.

Shengxia felt the burning affection in his eyes and smiled sweetly.

The chieftain had somehow appeared on the high platform, his face beaming with undisguised joy.

He raised his hand and made a gesture, and the noisy square instantly quieted down as everyone pricked up their ears.

"The Wolf King hunted three long-necked beasts! Summer discovered sweet potatoes! These are from our tribe..."

The chief was in high spirits, praising Shengxia and Wolf King so enthusiastically that he almost couldn't stop, his tone full of joy and satisfaction.

In the height of summer, her cheeks flushed, she raised her head confidently and looked straight ahead, smiling as she accepted the gazes of those around her.

The witch doctor stood to the side with a kind expression, looking at Wolf King and Sheng Xia below the stage. His smile deepened, and the wrinkles on his aged face became more pronounced.

He suddenly raised his hand, extended his index and middle fingers, drew some kind of pattern in the air, and finally tapped it.

Soft golden light danced in the air, drifting over the heads of every orc and merging into their bodies.

Sheng Xia stared in disbelief at the beautiful, dreamlike scene before her.

Countless golden spots of light emitted rhythmic flashes, like undulating waves of yellow fire.

Like stars scattered across the earth, they gently fly towards every orc.

It's so dreamy!

A sentence suddenly came to mind in the middle of summer.

May the twinkling fireflies fly into your dreams.

After doing all this, the witch doctor's hands visibly aged, resembling withered tree bark.

Someone shouted this in a tearful voice.

"It's a blessing, a witch doctor's blessing!"

The witch doctor didn't speak, but looked kindly at the audience with a loving expression.

Aoki's expression was complicated. He tightened his grip on Shengxia's hand, while Yang Yun looked at the stage with a shocked expression.

Wolf King walked slowly over, without saying a word, smiled, and gently embraced Shengxia.

For some reason, my eyes suddenly welled up with tears in the middle of summer.

She had seen it once in the original owner's memories: the witch doctor's blessing.

When the tribe captured the long-necked beast for the first time, the shaman rewarded the warriors with a spiritual baptism; the shaman was still very young at that time.

Shengxia couldn't hear what the chief said after that; she was still stunned by the witch doctor's selfless act.

She seemed to suddenly understand the significance of the witch doctor's existence.

"Xiaxia, you and Wolf King come with me."

As the witch doctor stepped down from the platform, the herd of animals dispersed like a tide, spontaneously making way for him.

Shengxia looked up in surprise and glanced at Wolf King.

"Let's go."

Wolf King placed a light kiss on her forehead, gently took Shengxia's hand, and intertwined their fingers.

At the witch doctor's house.

When Leopard Spring saw Sheng Xia and Wolf King, his eyes sparkled. He wisely kept quiet and stood silently behind the witch doctor.

The witch doctor looked at Shengxia with a smile.

"Xiaxia, what should we do with the sweet potatoes?"

After observing for a long time, Shengxia concluded that the tribe's witch doctor and chief were trustworthy.

She smiled slightly, her face serious.

“Sweet potatoes can be grown on a large scale. We can set aside a special area as a planting base for the tribe.”

"Planting base?"

The witch doctor's originally kind face showed a look of doubt.

"Yes, it's not just a small-scale wheat harvest on the back hill; it's a large area of ​​land that has been cleared out specifically for cultivation."

In the height of summer, she explained the whole story with a beaming smile, radiating confidence.

The tenderness and doting in the eyes of the wolf king beside him were almost overflowing.

The witch doctor lowered his eyes and asked calmly, "What if the planting fails?"

"Then let's try again, we'll succeed eventually."

Shengxia answered without hesitation, with a smile.

Failure is normal; keep trying and you'll eventually succeed.

"Alright." The witch doctor smiled again, a wise glint in his cloudy eyes.

"Want to be a witch doctor?" he suddenly asked earnestly.

"I don't want to." Sheng Xia's answer was straightforward and decisive.

She thought it over carefully and realized that the responsibility of a witch doctor was too heavy for her to bear.

The witch doctor was heartbroken.

Just as Leopard Spring was about to cheer, the cheer caught in his throat, and his eyes widened in disbelief.

The witch doctor had expected her to refuse, but he hadn't expected her to refuse so decisively.

He had been searching for a successor beast for a long time, and as the spiritual leader of the tribe, the choice of the shaman could not be taken lightly.

He found a suitable orc years ago, but unfortunately he didn't have time to teach him, and the male couldn't stand the loneliness and went to become a warrior.

He died while on a hunting expedition.

The witch doctor was depressed for a long time, but then he mustered his spirits and started looking for new beasts.

He finally met someone suitable, but she turned out to be female.

Females are delicate and may not agree to become witch doctors, as it's too tiring.

really.....
