After flying for another ten minutes or so, Yang Yun smiled and reminded her, "Xia, we've arrived. I'm preparing to land. If you feel unwell, just let me know."

In the height of summer, a radiant smile bloomed on her face: "Okay."

Upon hearing the reply, Yang Yun straightened its wings, glided down, and landed by a river.

"Summer has arrived."

The lion and the fox arrived a step behind.

The two beasts carefully sprinkled insect repellent evenly over a 500-meter radius around them, and watched as the rustling grass, ants, insects, and snakes fled in panic.

Having confirmed that nothing was missing, it transformed into its beast form and turned to run towards the height of summer.

"alright."

"Walk."

The lion was faster than the fox, leaping into the air and transforming into human form the instant it landed, laughing heartily as it stretched out its hand.

I unfastened the safety buckle and lifted Shengxia down.

"Xia, are you feeling unwell?"

Fox Snow transformed into human form, a smile on her face, and walked over with light steps, giving Sheng Xia a concerned look.

The clear, emerald-green river flows gently, the sound of its murmuring filling the air. In the height of summer, I raise my chin and smile freely.

"It's very comfortable, I really like it here!"

Faced with breathtaking scenery, Shengxia felt her heart and mind expand considerably.

I want to shout out loud and release the surging emotions in my heart.

Without hesitation, she looked at the cluster of golden chrysanthemums in front of her, her heart surging with emotion. Looking around, she realized that she was the only one there.

Golden Chrysanthemum

Cast aside your shyness, raise your hand to your mouth and make a megaphone shape.

"Ah!!! This place is so beautiful!"

"I! Love! It!"

Seeing Sheng Xia's cheerful state, the three males felt relieved and quietly stood guard beside her, their eyes filled with affection.

Unbeknownst to them, a small, bright green snake was coiled on a branch of a tree not far away.

The snake's pupils narrowed dangerously, and it flicked out its scarlet tongue, staring intently at the female shouting by the river.

He never expected to run into her while just getting a drink of water, and to see such an adorable side of the little female.

They are truly destined to be together.

Shengxia was completely unaware of what was happening behind her back. She was excitedly squatting on the ground digging for herbs, and she didn't forget to take out all the containers in her space.

Shengxia was digging happily, and without looking up, she said, "Qingmu, you guys fill up the water, I'll stay here and not go far."

"good."

The three males searched the area again, uprooting some sharp plants and throwing them into the river, and picking up large stones and throwing them far away.

After making sure there was nothing nearby that could harm Shengxia, they began to take turns filling water containers.

Aoki casually plucked a vine, activated his supernatural ability, and the vine instantly grew to more than fifty meters, flexibly coiling around the giant man.

Go to the river, fill it with water, and put it on the bank.

Yang Yun's eyes lit up. He controlled his superpower to release a blue ice rope and, imitating Qingmu, used the ice rope to lift the giant and put it into the water.

Fill it with water and place it on the bank.

After a few rounds, he skillfully used the stiff ice rope, making Hu Xue's eyes light up with envy.

When will he be able to advance to the fourth tier of awakening?

The three males were splashing water, keeping an eye on Shengxia out of the corner of their eyes, occasionally turning back to look at her intently for a while.

Aoki scooped up some water and slowed down. He saw Shengxia squatting and digging, so he went over and squatted down next to her.

I casually dug up a blade of grass that looked just like her.

"Xia, go and rest for a while, I'll dig."

Seeing the grass with roots still attached to his hand, Shengxia tilted her head and smiled mischievously: "Oh no, you've ruined the roots."

Looking at that string of yellow essence, each section the size of a palm, which Aoki ripped to shreds with a single grab.

What a pity.

Aoki was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and apologized, "I'm sorry, I... I thought you wanted the leaves on top, I'll dig up the roots right away."

After saying that, it carefully began to dig with its claws.

Sheng Xia smiled and leaned over to kiss him on the cheek: "You guys fetch water first, and come back to dig when the water is full, okay? Go on."

The female's happy, soft voice made the lion's body tremble, and its furry ears popped out.

She trembled slightly, her ear tips turning red.

Without hesitation, Aoki hugged Shengxia, closed his eyes, took a deep, greedy breath, and then released her.

When Shengxia turned around, she found that Qingmu was no longer by her side. The three males kept looking back at Shengxia while fetching water.

If I happen to see it in the height of summer, I'll give it a sweet smile and then excitedly start digging again.

Her eyes shone like searchlights, seeing useful herbs everywhere, until she spotted golden thread lotus growing everywhere under the damp tree roots.

"Ah, golden thread lotus!"

What a large patch of golden thread lotus.

Wild golden thread lotus, also known as prison-bound lotus

Her adrenaline surged to an unbelievable level, and Sheng Xia exclaimed in surprise, almost running over.

Wild Anoectochilus roxburghii is a Class II protected plant in China today. If you dig up wild ones, you might as well start sewing.

Golden Thread Orchid is known as a miraculous medicine, as the entire plant can be used medicinally and has extremely high medicinal value. Here, she can dig it up as much as she wants!

When Aoki and the others heard the noise, they rushed over to check on her. After confirming that she was alright, they reluctantly returned to the riverbank.

Blue skies, white clouds, swaying green trees—this summer, like birds that have strayed into the Garden of Eden, is happily gathering herbs.

The green snake on the tree inhaled and exhaled with its blood-red tongue, and two red, soft fleshy appendages on its belly dragged along its sides as the snake slowly slid along the tree trunk.

His gloomy, vertical pupils were fixed on the little female, imagining her writhing beneath him, and his snake-like body trembled as if electrocuted.

The green snake left a trail of slime where it crawled.

By the time Shengxia noticed, the snake demon was already at her feet. She immediately spotted the two red tips with faint snake slime.

Having five companions, Shengxia instantly understood, feeling both ashamed and angry. Driven by malice, she reached out and grabbed the snake's head.

As Snake Ghost trembled, indulging in her sweet body temperature, Summer grabbed his icy forked tongue.

Pull hard outwards to tie a slipknot to the forked snake tongue. A dead knot will break free, but the slipknot will tighten as it is pulled!

He grabbed the snake's mouth, swung it heavily on the ground twice, and threw it up a tree like a whip.

That bastard is actually fantasizing about her!

Upon hearing the commotion, Aoki Yoyun and the fox immediately put down what they were doing and rushed towards Shengxia with worried expressions.

The green snake realized he could no longer transform into human form, glanced longingly at Sheng Xia, and then disappeared from the spot.

He will come back...

"Xia, what's wrong? Did that snake come by?"

Aoki sensed something, his pupils contracted, and his dangerous gaze was fixed on the spot where the snake had been.

Fox Snow twitched her nose, revealing an expression exactly like Aoki's—the same one as that Jade Serpent from last time.

It's normal for a male to be rejected when he's courting someone. But if he keeps pestering the woman after being rejected, he's not a man!

Yang Yun tenderly pulled the stunned Sheng Xia into her arms, gently stroking her back and asking softly in a low voice.

"I'm sorry, I didn't notice, did I scare you?"

It's a shame to frighten her.

Sheng Xia suddenly came to her senses, her heart racing, and she belatedly became frightened, shrinking into Yang Yun's arms and hugging him tightly.

She just touched the snake.
