The next morning, the sun was blazing.

At the top of the mountain, in front of a huge cave.

The female, wearing a light green jumpsuit, sat on a small stool with her hands supporting her cheeks, her long black hair cascading down her back.

Her eyes were fixed on the sea in front of her, her gaze somewhat vacant, as if she were lost in thought.

While her partner was cooking, Chengguo came out for some fresh air and immediately saw Shengxia looking out of sorts. She went over and patted Shengxia on the shoulder.

"Xiaxia, why are you spacing out again?"

A sudden pain in her shoulder brought Sheng Xia back to her senses. She smiled and shook her head, her almond-shaped eyes immediately becoming lively.

"Nothing, I was just thinking about something."

We don't know if a tsunami will come, but the sea level is rising and there are signs of a rising tide.

It doesn't look like a tsunami is about to happen at all.

But for some reason, her sense of crisis intensified.

Orange blinked, then suddenly leaned closer with a mysterious look, whispering something that all the beasts could hear.

"Xiaxia, are you pregnant?"

I've been spacing out a lot lately, and I look a bit silly. Xiaxia once said that being pregnant makes females less intelligent for a period of time.

Could she be pregnant?

"Clang!"

"Bang!"

Suddenly, a loud bang was heard, followed by an explosion.

Before Shengxia could react, Wolf King had already pulled her into his arms. He gently stroked her back and spoke in a warm and pleasant voice.

"Xia, how are you? Is anything bothering you?"

Xiaxia hasn't come into heat yet, so she's probably not pregnant, but... that's not necessarily true. Xiaxia is special and different from ordinary females.

Perhaps she can get pregnant without going into heat?

If Shengxia knew what Wolf King was thinking, she would definitely laugh at him mercilessly. She never expected him to be so naive.

Unfortunately, she knew nothing. Seeing that Chengguo was being protected in her partner's arms, she breathed a sigh of relief and stared blankly at the source of the sound.

The sparks scattered and were instantly extinguished by Yang Yun and Tie Bai, leaving only wisps of black smoke rising slowly.

The pot was lying on the ground, its fragments scattered everywhere.

Is this... an explosion?

It was blown up really thoroughly!

Shengxia turned her head in surprise: "What did you do? Did it explode?"

"I'm sorry I startled you. It was me. I added a piece of ice to the oil pan..." Yang Yuntao lowered her eyes slightly.

He had just heard that Xiaxia was pregnant, and in his excitement, he put a piece of ice into the pot instead of meat.

A doting look flashed in Wolf King's deep brown eyes. He gently pressed his face against Sheng Xia's cheek and said with a soft laugh.

"I accidentally turned the fire up too high."

After saying that, his gaze couldn't help but fall on her flat stomach. Was Xiaxia really pregnant?

He's going to be a father again!

I wonder how many babies this time. Xiaxia's childbirth was easy and painless, but pregnancy is definitely inconvenient.

I hope this pregnancy will be less, so that Xiaxia can be more comfortable.

A sly glint flashed in Shengxia's eyes. She glanced at Wolf King with her bright almond-shaped eyes, then hugged his arm and said with a light laugh.

"My Lord Wolf, I'm not pregnant, but would you like some wolf cubs?" If so, we can have another litter.

Judging by the days, her heat cycle is almost here...

If she doesn't use contraception, she'll definitely have a litter of pups after her heat cycle ends. Thinking of the soft, cute, furry pups, Shengxia smiled gently.

I'm actually quite looking forward to it...

Hearing her words, Wolf King felt a surge of emotion. He lowered his eyes with affection and gently touched Sheng Xia's hair with his cool lips.

"No, I don't want the wolf cub anymore."

Xiaxia doesn't like having children. Pregnancy is so hard, and it breaks his heart to see her go through it. If possible, he'd rather not have any more children.

He would raise as many children as she wanted if she wanted, but unfortunately Xiaxia didn't like it, otherwise he wouldn't have used contraception before.

Shengxia was completely stunned. No cubs?

Aren't male beastmen most concerned about their offspring? The reason they are so keen on mating is mostly for the sake of their cubs.

Why are you suddenly saying no?

Fine, if she doesn't want it, she doesn't want it. She really likes fluffy things, but she also needs to respect her partner's opinion.

"Alright then, we won't have any more children," Sheng Xia said with a smile.

Neither of them knew that their mutual consideration had allowed a misunderstanding to continue for many years.

A gentle breeze swept by, bringing a touch of coolness.

The orcs who went out hunting returned one after another. Each returning orc would respectfully call out "Xia the Witch Doctor" when passing by Shengxia.

Shengxia responded with a smile, which made her smile a little stiff.

Seeing Hu Xue walking over, Sheng Xia tilted her head up and spoke sweetly, reaching out to him for a hug.

"Fox~ I'm tired, hug me."

Fox Snow narrowed her long eyes, stepped forward, and grasped Sheng Xia's slender waist, her voice clear and tender: "Okay~"

Her gaze suddenly shifted upwards, and she received a kiss on the neck. Sheng Xia giggled, shrank her neck, and turned her head to the side.

Looking at him up close, the red mole at the corner of his eye seemed to come alive, a bewitching and alluring sight.

Sheng Xia was engrossed in watching when she suddenly heard a seductive laugh. Turning her head, she bumped into his long, narrow, and alluring fox-like eyes.

"Sister Xiaxia~ Am I pretty?"

It's so beautiful!

She snapped out of her daze and blushed instantly. She immediately nestled against his chest, her long eyelashes trembling slightly. She poked him with her fair, jade-like fingers and said coquettishly.

"Fox! Don't laugh at me!"

"Okay, okay~ I won't laugh, I won't laugh~"

A gentle breeze blows, and the air is filled with the aroma of food.

In the height of summer, she twitched her nose and swallowed, wondering what the little lamb was doing. It smelled so good!

She stepped out of Hu Xue's embrace, turned around and sat down in a chair. The next second, a steaming bowl of food appeared in front of her, and her eyes lit up.

"Xiaxia, have a bowl of soup first."

When Yang Yun brought the fish ball soup to Sheng Xia, Wolf King leisurely took out several large white fruits.

I picked the biggest one, washed it clean with iron-white water, and carefully placed it on the steamer.

The other few were simply tossed into the fire.

In the height of summer, she ate the smooth and delicious fish balls with a beaming smile, then squinted her eyes in bliss and leaned back.

Suddenly hearing the sound of arguing, she stopped chewing and looked back, only to see an angry male standing in front of the mermaid Xi.

"Why won't you let me go back? It's been two days, and I'm perfectly fine!"

"The witch doctor Xia said that if there is danger, we should stay in a high place."

"Herbal Doctor Xia! Herbal Doctor Xia! You keep talking about her all the time, is she your partner?!"

Mermaid blushed and hurriedly covered his mouth, threatening him in a low voice.

"If you keep talking nonsense, I'm not going to take care of you anymore!"

After that, Shengxia stopped listening. She sighed silently. Many orcs saw that the sea was calm and there was no danger, so they were unwilling to stay on the mountain any longer.

As far as she knew, four or five families had already approached Crab Shadow asking to go home, only to be severely scolded and reluctantly returned to their caves.

In addition, the weather is even better today. Looking into the distance, the azure sea is sparkling and looks gentle and beautiful.

It didn't look dangerous at all, and everyone's desire to go home started to stir again.
