Chapter 198 Visiting the Beast Husband
Jin Tong didn't understand, but she still did as Shu Ning said, earnestly saying, "I want to be with Ning Ning forever."
After saying that, he quickly blew the stick away before it went out.
A wisp of smoke rose from the wooden stick after it was blown out.
"Is this all right?" Jin Tong asked, looking at Jin Tong.
"Yes, that way Jin Tong's wish can come true!" Shu Ning congratulated her. "Happy birthday, Jin Tong! I hope you are this happy and carefree every day!"
"That's great!" Jin Tong exclaimed excitedly, picking up Shu Ning and spinning her around.
"I will stay with Ningning forever!"
"Hahahaha..." Shu Ning laughed happily as Jin Tong hugged her.
Xuan Lin, watching the two of them so happy, had a dark glint in the depths of his eyes.
"Ningning, time to eat cake," he reminded her.
"Okay." Shu Ning got off Jin Tong and walked over. "Jin Tong, let's eat cake."
"Today is Jin Tong's birthday, so Jin Tong will make the first cut." Shu Ning handed the knife to Jin Tong.
“There’s such a saying? Then I won’t be polite.” Jin Tong took the knife, looked at the cake in front of him, thought for a moment, and cut it in the middle.
"Yes, that's how you cut it, clever," Shu Ning praised.
Upon hearing this, Jin Tong was secretly delighted. Looking at the cake in front of her, she then made several more crisscross cuts.
He handed the largest piece to Shu Ning, then gave one to Xuan Lin, and finally kept one for himself.
Jin Tong looked at the cake in front of her, which looked and smelled delicious, and admired it. Then she took a bite and exclaimed excitedly, "So delicious!"
"Hmm, not bad," Xuan Lin said. "Ningning, you said everyone eats cake on their birthday, so will you make one for me on my birthday too?"
"Yes," Shu Ning said, noticing that it was almost evening, and she thought of Yan and Mo Li.
“Xuan Lin, Jin Tong, I plan to go to Crimson Flame Mountain and the Jiao Clan later.”
Upon hearing Shu Ning's sudden words, Jin Tong and Xuan Lin looked at her in surprise.
"Ningning, what are you doing there?" Jintong asked with concern.
“Crimson Flame Mountain was attacked just two days ago. I heard that Nightmare was also injured. I want to go see him, and also Mo Li. I wonder how he is now.”
“I’ll go with you.” Jin Tong and Xuan Lin spoke almost simultaneously.
"No need, I'll be back soon after I deliver the food to them," Shu Ning said.
"Okay, take some of this cake to each of them, it's really delicious." Jin Tong said, afraid that Shu Ning would disappear in a moment, and quickly put it in two bowls.
"Okay." Shu Ning took the cake that Jin Tong had packed and put it into her spatial storage, then took two jars of jam.
"Then I'm leaving," Shu Ning said, waving goodbye.
“Hmm,” Xuan Lin replied, his silver eyes darkening.
"Be careful!" Jin Tong looked at Shu Ning, who had suddenly disappeared, and felt a void in his heart.
Crimson Flame Mountain —
"We need to strengthen the defenses over the eastern mountains," Nightmare instructed the Crimson Flame Tiger Beastman.
"Yes, Your Majesty," the Crimson Tiger replied.
"Go ahead and get busy."
"yes."
After giving his instructions, Yan propped himself up from his seat with one hand and walked to the cave entrance.
He stood with his hands behind his back, quietly watching the road below.
He saw a female orc daring to pass by alone in this very spot. He just thought it was funny and teased her, but now she has become his female.
Fortunately, her appearance brightened up his lonely and desolate world.
When he thought of her, a happy smile quietly appeared in his eyes, and his heart was warmed by the sight of her smile.
It's just that other tribes have been ambitious lately, which has kept him from spending time with his females.
Thinking about this, he felt agitated.
Just as I was about to turn around, a familiar figure suddenly appeared on the mountain road.
"How do we find Nightmare?" Shu Ning reappeared at Crimson Flame Mountain, on the road leading to the Desolate Swamp.
She didn't notice any living creatures when she first came here.
This time, too, the Crimson Flame Tigers acted quietly, rarely showing themselves.
It felt even less human than before.
"Reporting to Your Majesty!" At this moment, a Crimson Tiger Beastman emerged.
"Shh." Yan stared at Shu Ning on the road, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes, and just watched her like that.
"Is anyone there?" Shu Ning called out to her surroundings, but only the empty echo from the distant mountain answered her.
"nightmare--"
The Crimson Tiger Beastmen who heard her voice all came out of the rock caves, trees and mountaintops to observe her.
After a while, no one came out. Shu Ning called out a few more times, then looked at the sun which was already beginning to set.
She frowned slightly, guessing that Yan was probably busy. So many things had happened at Crimson Flame Mountain these past few days, and she felt that she shouldn't bother him.
She had promised Jintong she would go back tonight, so she didn't waste any more time and found a secluded spot under a tree.
In an instant, they arrived at the cave where the Jiaolong clan—Mo Li—lived.
Seeing that Shu Ning was out of sight, Yan suddenly became anxious and quickly transformed into his original form to go and find her.
Shu Ning, now in the Jiao Clan's palace, looked at Mo Li's bedchamber and sensed that the atmosphere was different from when she last visited.
At this time, Mo Li's father had just been buried.
"Mo Li, you should go back and rest first," Cang Lan said to Mo Li.
"Mother..." Mo Li looked at Cang Lan with sorrow in her eyes.
"The wolf clan was suddenly attacked by the black bear clan on a large scale, losing many male wolves. I heard that even Ningning personally went into battle to fight the enemy." She sighed as she said this.
"We, the Jiao clan, have already let them down for not being able to provide timely support."
"You should go back tomorrow."
"Don't worry, the Jiao Clan has us," Mo Huai said, patting Mo Li on the shoulder.
“With Second Brother here, the Jiao Clan doesn’t need your concern,” Mo Yu said.
Mo Li frowned slightly upon hearing this, and looked at them, saying, "Okay."
"Get some rest," Canglan advised.
"Um."
When Mo Li returned and opened the door, she saw Shu Ning covering her mouth and nose.
He quickly took out the breathing pills and gave them to her.
"Huff...huff..." Shu Ning gasped for breath after taking the breathing pill.
"Ningning, you..." Mo Li's feelings were very complicated at this moment. Looking at Shu Ning in front of her, she couldn't believe it was real.
These past few days he had been immersed in the pain of losing his father, but he had been suppressing it. The moment he saw Shu Ning, his restrained emotions began to break down.
"Mo Li..."
Just as Shu Ning was about to speak, Mo Li suddenly hugged her tightly, buried his head in the side of her neck, and whispered in a suppressed voice, "Ning Ning..."
Shu Ning reached out and touched his back, "I'm here..."
"Mo Li, if you want to cry, just cry. There's no one else here," Shu Ning comforted her softly.
At this moment, Mo Li's body trembled slightly.
Shu Ning didn't know whether Mo Li was really crying or just excited, and the two of them just stood there hugging each other.
"You're so good, Ningning..." Mo Li's hoarse voice rang in Shu Ning's ears as he hugged her and said this.
A moment later, he released her, cupped her cheeks in his hands, and leaned down to kiss her.
