In the sweltering summer heat, he choked on his own saliva and began to cough violently.

How did such an outrageous rumor even reach the Iron-Eating Beast tribe?

Even the magic spring couldn't revive the dead beast, let alone her healing abilities and traditional Chinese medicine skills.

She's not Hua Tuo reincarnated.

Rumors of a harmful animal!

Wolf King gently patted Shengxia's back with his large hand, and when she stopped coughing, a warm light flashed in his eyes.

He turned his head, looked at Tie Bai with a calm expression, and explained in a gentle tone.

"That's just a rumor, don't take it seriously. Only the Beast God could bring a dead beast back to life."

It was a story that spread when they rescued the baby fish that had fallen into the water.

His gentle tone reassured the beast, and Shengxia tilted her head, nuzzling against his chest in a coquettish manner, before explaining in a lighthearted tone.

"I do know medicine, but I'm not as good as the rumors say, and I don't have the ability to bring dead beasts back to life. You should find another beast."

Looking into his pink eyes, Sheng Xia was captivated. When she came to her senses, she lowered her eyes and dared not look at him anymore.

I want a giant panda with pink eyes!

Hearing the two beasts' explanation, Tie Bai smiled with relief. He had been mentally prepared before coming, and it was probably only the Beast God who could bring a dead beast back to life.

Thinking of his father's instructions, his eyes darkened, and his cool voice carried a hint of nonchalance.

"Okay, I'm going back." His voice was like a clear mountain spring, short, clear, calm, and easygoing.

They don't press or pester you; they're very easy to talk to.

Shengxia looked at him with bright eyes, leaned softly against Wolf King's chest, and played with his fingers.

Tie Bai turned halfway around, then suddenly wanted to turn back and take another look at the straightforward and adorable female. He turned back and looked at Sheng Xia with his clear and pure pink eyes.

"Last time I came, I traded some hemostatic medicine with your chief. It worked very well. Can I buy some from you?"

Aoki's smile gradually faded, his expression turned cold, and he stood casually at the door, his deep, magnetic voice slightly chilly.

"We'll talk about the hemostatic medicine later. Our Xia likes iron-eating beasts. You're barely qualified, so leave them for her as a companion."

It would be best if you agreed, or you could knock her out and have Xia mark her.

For some reason, Tie Bai breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing his words. His voice was casual yet carried a chilling, intimidating quality.

"She's a good female. I need to go back and take care of some things."

With the witch doctor gone, and Chief Father in dire need of help, their Iron-Eating Beast clan was left with only one fourth-tier member…

Sheng Xia felt a little embarrassed. Had she been given a "good beast" card?

Just as she was feeling awkward, she suddenly met his clear pink eyes, paused for a moment, and heard him say something.

"I am willing to be your partner. Wait for me, wait for me to go back to the tribe and explain."

Sheng Xia's lips curled up uncontrollably. She turned her face to the side and pursed her lips, unable to suppress the upturned corners of her mouth.

Their voices were filled with obvious excitement.

"Okay, let's have a meal before you go?"

As soon as she uttered the words, she was startled by her own sweet voice and raised her hand to touch her burning cheeks.

The husbands tried every means to match her with other men, giving her the feeling of having an open and aboveboard affair.

This is really exciting.

Seeing her happy expression, Wolf King's heart softened. He affectionately nuzzled her nose, stroked her soft hair with doting eyes, and turned to Tie Bai, speaking gently.

"Find a place to sit, mark your spot after you finish eating, and then leave."

He could tell that Xia really liked this male.

Aoki smiled brightly, nodded emphatically, and looked intently at the joyful Shengxia. Her happiness was his happiness.

Wolf King's casual remark struck Sheng Xia like a thunderbolt, leaving her head buzzing.

She gave the wolf a reproachful look, then blushed and lowered her head in embarrassment.

Doing that on the first meeting? Is it really necessary to be so exciting?

Sheng Xia looked incredibly cute when she was shy, and Yang Yun couldn't help but smile, the bitterness in her heart disappearing completely.

Tie Bai's smile deepened, his eyebrows brimming with uncontrollable laughter. His voice trailed off with amusement, his tone cold and clear.

"Okay, I'll go hunting."

Aoki walked over with a bright smile and a hearty laugh: "No rush today, I brought back a lot of shrimp, enough to eat."

After saying that, he went to the yard and brought in a basket of shrimp.

Yang Yun naturally took it, looked down and saw that everything was taken care of. His peach blossom eyes slightly upturned, and his cool voice carried a smile.

"Xia, how would you like to eat?"

In a cheerful mood, Sheng Xia smiled and said, "I want to eat spicy shrimp, crispy and crunchy spicy shrimp~"

"Okay." Yang Yun refrozen the ice that was about to melt in the buckets and took the shrimp to the kitchen.

Wolf King glanced at Aoki and followed.

Aoki belatedly realized what was happening, slapped his forehead, and smiled brightly: "I'll go help."

Sheng Xia's lips twitched. Did it have to be this obvious?

Tie Bai pretended to be nonchalant, glanced at her sideways, his heart was pounding, but his face still maintained a casual and carefree demeanor.

Just as the summer was getting awkward, Fox Snow returned with several cubs: "Sister Xiaxia, the rain has stopped outside~"

A pair of bright, fox-like eyes flashed with a smile when they saw the unfamiliar male beside them.

Yang Yuan's clear, big eyes looked at this person and then that person, blinking curiously: "Mom, is he the new dad?"

Sheng Xia smiled gently and nodded slightly.

"Yes, his name is Tie Bai, and he is your new father."

With her fox-like eyes slightly upturned, Fox Snow mischievously picked up Yang Yuan and carried him over, her voice tinged with a hint of joy.

"Do you like your new father?"

Finally, he's not a new beast anymore; Sister Xiaxia is nostalgic~

Yang Yuan: "His eyes are so beautiful!"

Wolf Song: "Yes, it's pink."

Shi Qing: "I've never seen pink eyes before."

The three little heads huddled together, whispering secrets that all the beasts could hear.

The subtle tension disappeared after the prawns were served, and the atmosphere at the table became relaxed and pleasant again.

Yang Yun and Lang Jun sat on either side of Sheng Xia, carefully peeling shrimp for her.

Fox Snow and her cubs sat next to Sheep Cloud, while Green Wood and Iron White sat opposite them.

Aoki faced Hu Xue, and Tie Bai faced Sheng Xia.

The little ones seemed to be thinking about something, and they followed their father's example, peeling a shrimp for their mother.

Suddenly a chubby little hand reached out in front of me, holding a large shrimp that wasn't quite peeled properly.

"Mommy, eat some big shrimp!"

He tried his best to bring his little hand to her mouth, but his arms were too short. Yang Yun pursed her lips and suppressed a laugh, then picked him up a little.

Meeting Lang Ge's expectant eyes, Sheng Xia smiled and bent down, obediently eating it, and then praised him with a smile.

"It's delicious~ The little shrimp peeler did a great job."

Hearing Shengxia's praise, Langge smiled happily, revealing a pair of cute little tiger teeth.

Yang Yuan and Shi Qing also came over, their voices still childish, carrying shrimp.

Shengxia felt a pang of tenderness in her heart and ate it all.

A few bits of unpeeled shrimp shells clung to the meat, crispy and soaked in broth, making them delicious.

The warm atmosphere surprised Tie Bai for a moment, but his smile quickly deepened.
