Chapter 275 Cold: Cheers Resound Because of You
The desolate marshland.
Han She and Yi Yuan argued all the way before finally reaching an agreement.
The sacred female of the Merfolk is imprisoned in the snake tribe of Hanshe.
The Snow Fox Beast is imprisoned in the Viper Tribe of Yiyuan.
Only one question remains: which tribe will Ningning stay in?
Without consulting Yi Yuan, Han She directly led Shu Ning towards his tribe at the fork in the road between the two tribes.
"Hey?"
As Yi Yuan was swimming towards his tribe, he discovered that Han She had changed her route.
He stepped forward and stopped them, saying, "You've gone the wrong way, that's the direction."
He looked toward his tribe and said.
Han She ignored him and continued walking.
Yi Yuan stopped him again.
“Last time, Ningning was in your Viper Tribe when she was in the Desolate Swamp. Now it’s our Ting Snake Tribe’s turn.”
Han She brooked no argument.
"Heh..." Yi Yuan sneered, "Who told you that you weren't Ning Ning's beast husband last time?"
After Yi Yuan finished speaking, he moved closer to Shu Ning and said in a deep and gentle voice, "Our tribe has a better environment than theirs, which is dark and damp. It will be more comfortable for Ning Ning to live in our tribe, right Ning Ning?"
Han She's face was gloomy. After a moment of silence, he said, "I will have my subordinates light a fire to warm Ningning up. You don't need to worry about that."
Yi Yuan held Shu Ning's hand, the warmth of his palm reaching her, but he still disagreed with letting Shu Ning live in Han She's tribe. "That won't do. It's too humid there, and the temperature has dropped recently. I'm worried about it."
Han She ignored Yi Yuan's words, looked down at the female in his arms, his Adam's apple bobbing, and coaxed in a low voice: "Ning Ning, you will go to our Temple Snake Tribe, right, hmm?"
While speaking, she subtly pulled Yi Yuan's hand away.
Han She's pupils narrowed, and beneath his flowing black hair, a forced smile appeared on his cold, pale face.
A very faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Her eyebrows and eyes were curved, but it looked unnatural.
Shu Ning could tell that he didn't usually smile much.
His eyes also seemed to be deliberately concealing his usual gloomy expression.
Shu Ning frowned and pressed down her lips, but in her heart she found it extremely cute.
I couldn't resist reaching out and pinching the smooth skin on his cheek.
Han She's eyes widened slightly.
Shu Ning looked up at the male beside her, "Yi Yuan, this time I'll go to the Serpent Tribe to stay first, and wait..."
“Ningning doesn’t need to wait,” Yiyuan said immediately. “She can come whenever she wants. Even if she touches the territory of the Serpent Tribe, she can come to our Serpent Tribe in the next second without any problem.”
A hint of gloom appeared in Han She's eyes, but his expression quickly returned to gentle as he looked at Shu Ning. "Don't worry, Ning Ning won't suffer any injustice in our Serpent Tribe."
“Then I’m relieved,” Yi Yuan patted Shu Ning’s head. “Ning Ning, if you’re unhappy living in the Serpent Tribe, you must tell me.”
Shu Ning smiled and nodded.
Han She immediately carried Shu Ning away.
If it had been a second later, Ningning would probably have been tricked away by Yiyuan again.
The other two males were left behind.
"Is this guy just going to abandon us like this?"
After a short while, Mo Li looked at the snake shadows of Han She and his subordinates, which had almost disappeared, and complained.
"They were just clamoring for us to come to Youhuangze... Tsk tsk, they've forgotten their brothers because of Ningning, so unreliable."
"It's just a temporary stroke of favor..." Xuanmo said, making a sarcastic remark that he himself didn't even realize.
He started to come up with new ideas.
Yi Yuan glanced at the fallen snow fox behind him, his eyes deep and unfathomable.
"Indeed, Han She is just that unreliable."
Yi Yuan nodded in agreement, then looked at the two males and revealed an expression that showed he was the only reliable one.
"Mo Li, Xuan Mo, come with me to the Viper Tribe to stay. The Viper Tribe welcomes you."
When we came out of the water again, the weather seemed a bit cooler than before.
The climate in the Desolate Marsh is more humid than other places and not very cold, but many snake-beastmen have already begun to prepare for hibernation.
The Serpent Clan had received advance notice of Shu Ning's arrival.
The snake-beasts decided to hold a feast, have a good meal, and then begin to hibernate.
It was already evening when we re-entered the snake tribe.
With the campfire lit, the entire tribe looked much brighter and more transparent than before.
The moment Han She appeared at the entrance of the tribe carrying Shu Ning, the entire Serpent Valley seemed to explode.
Many beastmen gathered at the entrance, craning their necks and waiting to be welcomed.
"Han She, Han She, you can put me down now."
Before even entering the tribe, Shu Ning saw a dark mass of snake-beastmen standing at the entrance.
My face suddenly felt hot.
She wished she could bury her head in Han's chest and hide from all gazes.
Han She did not do as instructed, but instead tightened her arms around her.
He looked around at his people cheering for them, then looked down at the lady in his arms.
His deep voice cut through the clamor: "Listen to this cheering, it's because of you. Without you, none of this would exist. You deserve their praise."
Having said that, he stepped resolutely and without further ado into the entrance that the orcs had made clear.
Han She's clear, magnetic voice came from above, encouraging Shu Ning. She slowly raised her head to accept the gazes of all the snake-beast people.
The beastmen jostled and crowded to both sides of the road, wanting to get a better look.
Pairs of bright eyes shone with admiration and joy.
Its tail is held high and sways rapidly from side to side.
"Chief, Chief's wife, the feast is ready, please follow me."
A snake-beastman in charge of all this came over and said happily.
Han She's Adam's apple bobbed, and he hummed in response.
Dressed in black, Han She carried the female master, who was dressed in white fur, through the snake swarm with steady steps.
"Hiss... hiss..."
The Serpent Beastmen welcomed Shu Ning back for the first time as the tribe's queen with their unique welcoming ceremony.
The crowd was in high spirits, cheering loudly.
"Mother, who is she...?"
A baby snake looked at the female in Han She's arms and spoke in a hoarse, childlike voice.
"She is our Queen."
The viper female picked up her little snake cub and explained gently and patiently, "She is a great heroine of our Viper tribe. If it weren't for her, your father and uncle might have died on the battlefield. She stopped the war that could have destroyed our Viper tribe. From now on, whenever you see a Viper, you must show her more respect, understand?"
The female viper stroked the head of her snake cub and gave it a lecture.
“I know, oh my…” the little snake replied, though its pronunciation was incomplete.
The little snake looked at Shu Ning, its snake eyes gleaming, and flicked its tiny forked tongue.
Along the way, Shu Ning heard many high praises of her from the snake beastmen.
She looked up at the cold and stern Han She, her face full of confusion.
This is what he is doing.
They've promoted her so much...
I originally wanted to project the kind and benevolent image expected of a leader's wife...
At that moment, however, her ears turned bright red.
The hand resting on Han She's arm unconsciously clenched tighter.
Han She held the female in his arms, and he could feel her shyness and her attempts to hide.
In response, he tightened his arms slightly, holding her more firmly and tightly in his embrace.
His gaze was fixed ahead, his expression firm and dignified.
He raised his head to face the boiling snake people, his cold face showing no embarrassment.
Instead, they were filled with pride and self-satisfaction.
