The next morning, the sky was overcast.

Shengxia woke up naturally in the middle of the night, let out a soft moan, and stretched out her chubby limbs in a big yawn.

I opened my eyes to find the room a gray-white expanse.

"Huh? The curtains aren't open?" The soft, pink rabbit transformed into human form in a flash, rubbed its eyes, and sat up.

The soft, fluffy cotton quilt slipped off her shoulders as she got up, revealing pretty rosy spots on her fair and smooth skin.

"Sister Shengxia is awake. Are you hungry?"

Hearing the noise, Xingmu pushed open the door and came in.

The moment their gaze fell upon the sweltering summer, they immediately turned their heads away as if burned.

Before him lay the lush greenery of the courtyard, yet in his mind lingered a beautiful crimson. Xingmu's heart fluttered, and he hesitated to approach.

The female before me was as beautiful as a dream.

"Are you hungry? Why are you just standing there like an idiot?" Sheng Xia looked at his bright red ears and long, slender neck, which was tinged with a light pink, with amusement.

He glanced down at his shoulder and chuckled knowingly.

What an innocent little scorpion!

A mischievous glint flashed in her bright eyes. She blinked and stood up abruptly, leaving the cotton quilt tucked to the side of the bed, folded into a loose ball.

"Ah! Sister Shengxia, don't catch a cold."

Xing Mu's heart pounded wildly. Helpless, he grabbed a piece of clothing haphazardly and awkwardly walked over to wrap Sheng Xia in it.

"Okay, okay, I'm just teasing you. Let's hurry up and get ready to go eat. We still have to leave after we eat." Sheng Xia quickly put on her clothes and said with a light laugh.

Looking at the neatly dressed Shengxia, Xingmu felt a pang of disappointment. He secretly thought she looked best without any clothes on.

Absolutely perfect...

After a quick breakfast, we prepared to leave.

Having been to the Wolf Den tribe before, going there again would be much easier.

"Alright, let's go," Jiao Su reminded him.

Upon hearing this, everyone stood quietly inside the blue bubble, and in the blink of an eye, they arrived at the outer perimeter of the Wolf Den tribe.

Even after watching it several times, I still find it amazing.

"Is this superpower called spatial teleportation? That's amazing!"

"Yes, it's so convenient, I want one too..."

"You little brat, you've got some wild ideas!"

Everyone kept moving forward, exchanging excited whispers. As their pace quickened, their talking gradually subsided.

"Crunch... crunch..."

Running across the thick snow, Shengxia sat on the fox's back without feeling any bumps. She looked up at the mountains and forests beside her.

Clouds and mist shrouded a vast expanse of mountains and forests. The mountain peaks pierced through the clouds, revealing a pointed top at the very top, like a dark eye looking down upon all living beings.

In the height of summer, I inexplicably felt a heaviness in my heart.

Before entering the forest, Mao Ning made a gesture with a blank expression, and everyone suddenly stopped.

Yang Yun took the opportunity to come over and feed them.

He instantly transformed into human form, carefully took out a leather bag from his robes, opened a hidden compartment, and held a piece of spicy jerky to Sheng Xia's lips.

He whispered, "Xia, are you hungry? Have a bite to fill your stomach. What do you want to eat for lunch?"

The aroma made Shengxia's stomach rumble.

She opened her mouth to eat the jerky, then playfully flicked her slender, white fingers with the tip of her tongue.

Seeing the handsome young man's face flush instantly, a mischievous glint flashed in Sheng Xia's eyes. She quickly leaned over and kissed him on the lips, then chuckled and pulled back to chew on some jerky.

"Delicious!"

What's delicious?

Dried meat or...him?

Looking at her seduce the beast, the warm and soft touch seemed to linger on her fingertips, and Yang Yun felt her blood rush to her head, her eyes turning slightly red.

After assigning tasks, Maoning led a team of flying orcs into the forest to scout the terrain ahead of time.

Soon, familiar bird calls echoed through the mountains and forests, sounding somewhat abrupt in the quiet snow.

The snake, with a smile, gave Leopard a few instructions. The nimble leopard turned and ran towards Sheng Xia, stopping to look at her with bright, sparkling eyes.

"Doctor Xia, is anything bothering you? Do you need to stop and rest for a while?"

When asked the routine question by Baoquan, Shengxia smiled, her almond-shaped eyes crinkling, and shook her head, simply replying,

"No need to rest, does that mean you can keep walking?"

“Yes, Team Leader Maoning said that if we continue, we’ll cross the most dangerous mountain in one go and take a lunch break on the other side.” Baoquan looked at Shengxia with a smile.

"Okay, then we'll rest on the other side."

Upon hearing this, the little leopard took off running and darted to the front, excitedly saying something to Mao Ning.

Mao Ning nodded with a smile, raised his right hand to signal to continue, and the group set off again.

"Are you ready, Xiaxia? We're leaving~" The fiery red fox glanced back at the little female on its back and said cheerfully.

In the height of summer, I look up and gaze at the mountains ahead.

The mountains are high and dangerous, and what would be impossible in modern times is just basic operation here.

"Alright, alright, let's go." She quickly swallowed the last piece of jerky and said excitedly.

The large group marched forward in a mighty procession.

The fiery red fox beneath him steadily accelerated, and before he knew it, Shengxia had adapted to the feeling of flying.

Upon entering the forest, the surrounding trees seemed to grow instantly, enveloping the orcs. The group of less than thirty orcs moved skillfully through the bushes, making very little noise.

The only sound was the "crunch crunch" of footsteps on the snow.

Countless ancient and towering trees flashed past overhead, and a refreshing coolness filled the air.

In the height of summer, her eyes sparkled, and she sighed inwardly, "This is the primeval forest. The cold snowy season is just as dangerous and exciting, thrilling even to beasts."

"Whoa~"

The little golden lion couldn't help but cheer.

The snow fell from the branches with a soft rustling sound...

He was met with a rude kick from the lion. Aoki turned around and scolded in a low voice, "Shut up."

The surrounding area is covered in snow. If you make too much noise, the snow will avalanche and slide down. Getting injured in an avalanche is the least of your worries. If you are not careful, you will be buried and you will not be able to run away.

The little lion chuckled, rolled over on the spot, stood up, and continued running forward, saying something very shrewdly.

"Okay, Father, I'll shut up."

After saying that, she turned her head away, stuck out her tongue, and looked like she deserved a beating, which made Fox Snow's claws itch a little...

Seeing this, the silver wolf ran to the lion cub's side in two steps and explained in a gentle voice,

"Ah Qing, if we make too much noise, we'll shake the snow off the mountain, and if the snow gets too thick, we'll be buried."

The little white lamb hopped over and gently comforted us, "Yes, yes, it's okay that we're buried. Mother is a female, she'll get sick if it's too cold."

"Okay, I understand." The little lion's eyes visibly cleared, and he nodded solemnly.

He didn't want his mother to get sick!
