“Is that so…?” Kazel raised an eyebrow, clearly not believing her.

"Listen, it doesn't sound true." Su Ye, unusually, contradicted her, speaking with a skeptical expression.

Fan Xuanye and Xiong Ruoyou fell silent simultaneously. Although they wanted to believe Brother Mu, what he said was indeed a bit unreliable.

No, I mean it's extremely unreliable.

I don't believe it either.

Does Brother Mu think we're idiots? He might fool a fool, but to fool us is going too far.

[Upstairs, who are you calling an idiot? You're the one who's stupid!]

[...]

[...]

...

Mu Qingyun listened to their words without any surprise on her face. Yes, she had guessed that they would say that.

"If you don't believe me, then think about it yourself." She tilted her head, looking completely innocent.

Their acting wasn't great, but since Mu Qingyun said so, they had no choice but to believe her.

"Take a rest." Su looked at her for a long time, and finally sighed helplessly. Fine, if she doesn't want to talk about it, then she won't force her.

Unexpectedly, the successor he found had quite a few secrets.

"Oh." Xiong Ruoyou looked at Mu Qingyun, hesitated for a long time, and finally chose to unconditionally believe her brother Mu.

Having transformed into human form, she walked towards her cubicle.

She was interrupted twice while sleeping, but the fright from before faded and sleepiness immediately overwhelmed her, making her want to lie down in her sleeping bag right away.

"Yes, go to sleep." Mu Qingyun waved to them, then looked down at Bai Feifei, whom she had put on the ground.

After hesitating for a moment, she squatted down and stuffed Bai Feifei into the sleeping bag.

Regardless of whether she was comfortable or not, she got up and went straight into the house.

[Hmm, is that all?]

They didn't pursue the matter further, not even asking a single question. Mu Qingyun forbade them to ask, and they really didn't.

[I'm speechless. What's with the pretense? What's wrong with saying this? Do you really think you're so great? I'm dying of laughter.]

[I'm so annoyed. What business is it of yours if they don't want to talk about it? You're just curious. It's their own business; they can say what they want or not.]

Seriously, seeing those comments above makes me want to thank you. Keyboard warriors like you shouldn't come to Brother Mu's livestream, you're bad luck!

...

Back in her room, Mu Qingyun slumped into her sleeping bag, raising her left hand to examine it closely.

If you want to know about that so-called warrior, you can only ask the Rat King, and maybe the ants and snakes next. In any case, you absolutely cannot ask the people around you.

As soon as she asked that question, those shrewd people would definitely sense that something was wrong.

She guessed that the warrior must also be a plant-based ability user, and that he must have done some good deeds to earn the title of "warrior" from the poisonous creature legion.

Forget it, racking my brains won't help. It's more reliable to ask around when I have time.

She closed her eyes and began to rest.

The next day, just as dawn broke and everyone was still asleep, they were startled awake by a scream.

"What's wrong? What's wrong now?" Xiong Ruoyou ran outside briskly, and bumped right into Bai Feifei, who was running in in a panic.

"Ouch."

The two were about the same height and neither could stop in time, so they basically collided head-on.

At the same time, Xiong Ruoyou fell to the ground, clutching her head. She had been woken up twice during the night and was still fuming when she woke up naturally in the morning. She spoke in a harsh tone, "Did you see a ghost in broad daylight? What are you yelling about!"

[Sister Black Bear is angry. This seems to be the first time I've ever seen her this angry.]

[Don't even mention Sister Black Bear, I was scared half to death by Bai Feifei's scream the moment I turned on my live stream this morning.]

[Seriously, it's so refreshing and invigorating so early in the morning.]

...

"Mice, mice, a huge bunch of mice!" Bai Feifei was clearly still immersed in the scene before she fell asleep, and her mental state seemed a little abnormal.

"What rat? Brother Mu chased the rat away yesterday." Xiong Ruoyou frowned, snorted, and stood up, supporting herself on her arms.

Were they...were they driven away?

Bai Feifei rubbed her temples and suddenly remembered what happened before she fainted yesterday. She seemed to have hugged Mu Qingyun tightly because she was so scared.

Mu Qingyun's waist was very slender and soft, yet it also had some muscle to it. It was even softer than her waist, making her seem less like a man and more like a woman.

"What's wrong now?"

Bai Feifei imagined the protagonist leaning against the doorframe, staring coldly at her, "What are you shouting about so early in the morning?"

"I... I thought the rats hadn't left yet. Why are you all yelling at me?" Bai Feifei was annoyed by the repeated scolding. "It's like you're not afraid of anything."

Upon hearing this, Mu Qingyun sneered: "Yes, but not like you, afraid of everything."

She stretched lazily, finished speaking, and walked away from them, heading outside.

"Brother Mu, where are you going?" Xiong Ruoyou asked quickly as she watched her walk forward.

"Morning exercise," she replied without turning her head, then continued walking.

"Brother Mu, I'll follow you!" Xiong Ruoyou called out quickly and caught up with her, walking side by side. "You're in a weak period right now. If we encounter any danger, I can carry you and run away."

"..."

There's absolutely no need for that.

"I'll just carry you." She frowned, feeling awkward being carried by Xiong Ruoyou, as if she were a burden.

"Then I'll carry you." Xiong Ruoyou said, gesturing with her hand, pinching two fingers together to make a carrying gesture.

"No need for that."

To avoid being carried around like a chick, she quickly shook her head and refused, "Just let me hold your shoulders, your fur is stiff, I can hold on."

Hard hair?

Upon hearing this, Xiong Ruoyou suddenly thought of Yuehu.

Yuehu's big tail was fluffy and soft, and it was definitely easier to touch than her.

The more she thought about it, the more emo she felt. She lowered her head, looking unhappy.

Mu Qingyun probably never imagined that her unintentional remark would make Xiong Ruoyou so frustrated.

Meanwhile, Su and the others came out, only to find that Mu Qingyun and Xiong Ruoyou were missing.

"He probably went for his morning exercise." Su thought of the scene when Mu Qingyun had led him in training before, and he was almost certain.

“Last night was really thrilling. If Mu Qingyun hadn’t driven away the rats, even if we hadn’t died, this house might have been gone.” Kazel smiled, a hint of coldness flashing in his violet eyes.

"What do you want to say?" Su glanced at him indifferently, thoroughly disliking his roundabout way of asking questions.

“If First Commander Su Qiluo were here, we wouldn’t have anything to fear.” Kazel raised an eyebrow, his eyes filled with aggression as he looked at Su. “Don’t you agree?”
