The girl looked down at the arm she was holding. The sharp, polished claws were still very eye-catching...
Jin Li, who had been paying attention to the little one, noticed that her eyes fell on his paw. His heart tightened and he suddenly pulled his hand back.
Seeing that Ali's eyes were beginning to show an uneasy look again, Shi Yuqing grabbed his collar and pulled his head to a height that satisfied him, then gently pulled his ear, "Be good, don't think about anything else, and don't run around!" Then, he stood there and secretly discussed countermeasures with Jiubao.
"Master, according to my latest scan data, the energy flow of the Bixiao Beast within Ali's body has decreased by over 30% compared to before. If my speculation is correct, his previous abnormal state was a sudden onset. As the Bixiao Beast's energy flow decreases, his characteristics will disappear."
"How long will it take?"
"...At least three hours." He wasn't sure. His previous scan had clearly shown a sharp increase in the energy flow, but for some reason it was now slowly decreasing. What had happened in the half-hour or so that the tall man had disappeared?
When Yu Qing and Jin Li were approaching the camp, they could vaguely hear voices. A quick scan with their mental power revealed that everyone was on guard duty.
As soon as they entered the night watch tent, four scorching gazes locked onto the two of them. The strange-looking hat on someone's head made the four of them twitch their lips.
Shi Yuqing tightened her grip on Ah Li's hand slightly, and glanced back at the four of them calmly. She glanced at Luo Ying lying in the corner. The marks on the ground told her that this person had obviously been dragged over...
The first one to speak was Cheng Ming, the most impatient of the four, "Yuqing, you..."
"Two mutant nocturnal bears broke into our tent. We fought with them and they walked away unknowingly. We didn't expect that Luo Ying was also attacked..." Before Cheng Ming finished asking, Shi Yuqing took the initiative to explain the whole process. This set of explanations was discussed with Jiubao on the way.
Cheng Ming and the others silently stared at the bloodstained and torn clothes on the two men, trying to imagine how ferocious the mutated nocturnal bear they encountered must be...
Shi Yuqing was afraid that if they stared too long they would notice Jin Li's claws and ears, so she glanced at Luo Ying again and said, "You two should go and rest. It's my and Ali's turn to keep watch for the rest of the night."
"No need." Luo Tian, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.
Luo Yun received the look from his elder brother and said to Shi Yuqing with a smile, "You two are injured and should rest well. Just leave this place to me and my brother."
It would be more secluded in their own tent, which was exactly what Shi Yuqing wanted. So, she nodded and pulled Jin Li out.
As I walked, I heard the intermittent conversations of several people behind me.
"What should we do with this woman?" Cheng Ming's voice sounded slightly impatient.
"Forget it, let her lie like this for now and see if she can wake up on her own tomorrow morning." This was Luo Yun's voice. "You two should go and get some rest too."
…
Back in the tent, Shi Yuqing did not turn on the light. In the darkness, she reached out and patted Jin Li's shoulder.
Jin Li bent down obediently, and felt a lightness on his head. The hat that had made him uncomfortable along the way was finally taken off by his girl's little hands. He couldn't help but shake his ears.
Under the dim night light, Shi Yuqing could clearly see the light blue fur trembling as the two ears twitched...
