Chapter 139 Returning to the Wolf Clan - Han She
Afterwards, they chatted for a while longer, and after eating, they went back to sleep.
At night, Xuanmo did nothing more. Looking at the female in his arms, nestled against him and fast asleep, a tender look appeared in his eyes.
After covering her with a blanket, he gently got out of bed, transformed back into his original form, removed the hardest scale on her body, polished it smooth, and then carved a beast-shaped pattern representing her name on her back.
They then strung together some small gemstones of similar color as decoration.
After doing all that, I sat down on the edge of the bed and carefully put it on her.
After tidying her up a bit, he admired the necklace she was wearing with satisfaction.
Even under the faint moonlight outside the cave, the black snake scales still reflected a myriad of colors.
The contrast with her beautiful face made her look even more serene and lovely.
He was deeply moved by what he saw. He gently brushed away the stray hairs from her forehead with his long, slender fingers, leaned down, closed his eyes, and gave her a light peck.
Then, feeling completely satisfied, I continued to hold her as we fell asleep...
The next morning—
After waking up, Shu Ning stretched and noticed that she suddenly had a necklace around her neck.
Looking at the necklace that had been put on her chest at some point, the black snake scales shimmered with iridescent colors under the sunlight, beautiful and mysterious.
She guessed that Xuanmo had secretly put it on her last night.
This black ink...
Thinking of this, she smiled.
"Ning, you're awake." Mo Li walked in and said, her eyes narrowing slightly when she saw that there was another necklace around Ning's neck.
"Did Xuanmo send this?" he asked as he sat down next to her, holding the roasted meat.
"Yes, it should be," Shu Ning said, touching the necklace on her chest.
“He put a lot of effort into it,” Mo Li said, noticing the rare reverse scale and the perfectly matched gemstones strung on it.
"Mo Li, do you know where Xuan Mo went?" Shu Ning asked, taking the roasted meat he handed her.
"He went to handle matters within the clan," Mo Li said, pulling up the blanket that had fallen off her body.
"Oh..." Shu Ning replied while eating.
"How did you sleep last night?" Mo Li asked, seeing the blanket in her hand. She was worried that they might have done something that would make her too tired to walk home.
"It's fine," Shu Ning replied immediately. "I slept very well last night."
Suddenly, the tips of her ears turned red as she thought of something.
Is Mo Li going to ask about that again...?
"Cough cough." She used a cough to cover up her inner thoughts.
"What's wrong?" Mo Li asked when she suddenly coughed.
"It's nothing," Shu Ning said.
Just then, Jin Tong and the others walked in. "Have some water."
"Have you all eaten enough?" she asked, taking the water that Jin Tong handed her.
"Mm," Xiao Chong replied.
After a moment, she said, "I'm full too."
After she finished speaking, she put down the skewers she had just finished eating and prepared to get up.
Suddenly I realized I wasn't wearing anything...
"Um..." she said shyly, "Why don't you wait for me outside?"
Even though she had met them all before, she still felt awkward with so many people around.
"What's wrong?" Mo Li asked, puzzled.
"I need to change my clothes," she said, covering herself with the blanket.
"good."
The beastmen all went out to wait.
"I'm ready," she said, looking at the beastmen waiting for her outside. "Let's get ready to go."
"Where is Nightmare?" Only then did she realize that Nightmare was not there either.
“Xuanmo has just become the new leader of the Black Serpent Clan, but his father has forgotten him again, and his mother is also grieving. Yan is worried about Xuanmo dealing with the other nobles in the Black Serpent Clan alone, so she plans to stay for a few days to help him deal with them,” Jintong said.
Upon hearing this, Shu Ning couldn't help but feel sorry for Yan, the beast husband.
I silently gave him a thumbs up in my heart.
Shu Ning also wanted to stay and help him.
“Xuanmo said we should go back first,” Mo Li said, seeing her worry.
Shu Ning knew that there were still many Black Serpent Beastmen in the Black Serpent Clan who were eyeing her covetously, and if she stayed, it would only distract him from taking care of her.
“Okay,” she said. “Let’s go.”
Then, Xiao Chong transformed into his wolf form and carried her on his back as they prepared to depart.
She glanced at the still misty Black Serpent Clan. Although she had only stayed for a few days, she had experienced a lot.
Seeing the black snake beastmen on the road reminded her of Xuan Mo even before she left the Black Snake Clan.
I hope everything goes well for him.
And then there's Nightmare. Once he returns to the wolf clan, she'll definitely reward him with a big chicken leg.
Their journey back to the wolf clan went smoothly without encountering any danger.
As evening approached and we were about to return to the wolf clan, we saw a tall, slender male dressed entirely in black animal clothing standing at the entrance to the wolf clan.
The group became wary upon seeing the orc standing in the middle of the road.
As the group drew closer, they were able to make out the orc more clearly.
"It's the snake race!" The observant Mo Li exclaimed after noticing his race.
When Shu Ning first saw the black animal costume and the long black hair, and then heard Mo Li say that it was the snake clan, she thought it was Xuan Mo.
While she felt joy, she also vaguely sensed that something was amiss.
As the group approached, she increasingly felt that this person's temperament was completely different from Xuan Mo's.
As she got closer, she realized that the person was Han She!
She never expected him to appear here.
Thinking about what she had done to him before, she felt conflicted and didn't know how to face him.
I don't know what he's doing in the wolf clan.
Thinking of Mu Yu's previous act of sending people to Youhuangze to seek cooperation, although she trusted Han She's character and knew he wouldn't do something like helping him one moment and then cooperating with Mu Yu the next, she still felt uneasy.
But then something occurred to her, and she was no longer sure.
After all, she had promised to become his female in order to get him to agree to a ceasefire, but then suddenly changed her mind.
When it comes to character, she's the one who's untrustworthy.
Thinking of this, she didn't dare to look at him and quietly shifted her gaze to Jin Tong, who was walking alongside Xiao Chong.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Shu Ning looking at his glazed eyes and thought she was scared, so he ran while comforting her.
"Ningning, don't be afraid. It's just a snake. There are more of us than it. It's no match for us."
But as soon as he finished speaking, he saw a group of snake-beastmen suddenly appearing one after another from the woods in front of him.
The three of them immediately stopped in their tracks when they saw so many orcs suddenly appearing on the other side.
"He's not alone now," Mo Li reminded him.
At this moment, Jin Tong no longer dared to underestimate his opponent, his fiery red vertical pupils fixed on the group of snake-beastmen.
Some returned to their original forms, while others transformed into human form.
They all looked strong and robust, but many of the snake-beastmen were not of the same race, and some were not even snake-beastmen, but of other completely unrelated races.
But they can get along well and form a seemingly harmonious group.
The three of them stood in tense confrontation with them.
To their slight surprise, the other party did not seem as ferocious as they had imagined, but rather appeared... delighted?
"Let's assess the situation first," Xiao Chong said.
"Mm." Mo Li and Jin Tong responded simultaneously, shielding Xiao Chong, who was carrying Shu Ning, behind them, assuming a posture ready to attack at any moment.
