Chapter 91 The Scene of Competition
The other beastmen rolled their eyes at him when they heard this.
"Alright, now that we've seen the jackal beastmen, Ningning, let's go for a walk." Yan pulled Shu Ning's hand and started to leave.
"Wait." Jin Tong grabbed her other hand.
"Has Ningning had breakfast yet?"
"not yet…"
She arrived at the Sacred Pool with Xuan Lin as soon as she got up, then the wedding was held, and then she came here.
"All you ever do is take her out to play." Jin Tong rolled her eyes at her new beast husband.
“Come to my place, let’s have barbecue,” Jin Tong said to Shu Ning.
"Mm." Shu Ning nodded; she also had something to eat to give him.
Shu Ning looked up at Yan, who was holding her other hand, with an apologetic expression.
"What's the big deal? I'll go with you," he said, noticing the look in Shu Ning's eyes.
“I’ll go too,” Yiyuan said.
“Since you’ve all gone, I can’t be left behind,” Mo Li suddenly said.
When Jin Tong saw so many beastmen vying for her, she closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and suppressed her dissatisfaction.
"Alright, all of you go!"
Shu Ning looked at them one by one with curiosity.
Didn't they lower their favorability rating?
Why do you have to come along?
Didn't you eat breakfast?
Or is this... what XiongJing is all about?
He has to compete with her on everything, even if he only has a good impression of her.
She needs to make the most of it and not let one thing distract her from the other.
Take this opportunity to increase their favorability.
Especially with Mo Li, if you behave well in public, you'll easily gain favorability points, but if you "ignore" him, you'll easily lose favorability points.
"That's good. I thought you wouldn't agree," Yan said.
"Am I that kind of person?" Jin Tong said to him irritably.
"Let's go." Then he gave Shu Ning a gentle look.
"Mmm," Shu Ning replied.
And so, with Yan and Jintong holding hands on either side, Shu Ning and several males followed Shu Ning to the entrance of Jintong's cave.
On the road—
"Is there enough food you've prepared for us?" Yan asked, seemingly worried.
"Don't worry, it'll be so full it'll kill you."
"Then I won't stand on ceremony."
After they left, they did not find Xuanmo standing in the distance.
His location was obscured by tree branches, and since he was in his original form, completely black, he was even more difficult to spot.
"Nightmare, why do you always want to take me out to play?"
"Of course, it's to show those males who covet you that I'm your new mate, and they can forget about having any ulterior motives."
Shu Ning recalled the "acting" she had mentioned to him last night and instantly understood the other meaning behind his words.
"I see. But wouldn't that be too eye-catching? Wouldn't it have the opposite effect?"
"Is Ningning worried that my strength is too great and will arouse their jealousy?"
...
Jin Tong, who was standing next to him, rolled her eyes at him again.
The two males behind them were also speechless.
"Yes, Nightmare is so powerful, I'm really worried that I'm overacting."
"Ha ha."
Hearing this, Yan smiled and patted her head.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here, you don't need to worry about this."
"What are you talking about? What are you acting out?" Jin Tong asked.
"It's an act for the real culprit," Shu Ning said.
She felt it would be better if there were fewer barriers between them.
"I see. Ningning, you can come shopping with me later. I can act with Ningning too," Yiyuan said.
"You're all so loud, don't let others overhear you before the performance even starts," Jin Tong reminded them.
"Anyone who dares to eavesdrop will taste my newly developed poison," Mo Li said, glancing around.
"I haven't seen how effective the poison that Mo Li researched is yet. Is it any good?" Jin Tong turned to Mo Li, a hint of provocation flashing in his fiery red eyes.
"What, you want to try?" A dangerous glint flashed in Mo Li's eyes.
"Would you like to try our fox clan's specialties?"
Shu Ning sensed something was wrong when she heard their conversation was about to escalate.
"Jin Tong, your fox clan's charm is so powerful, can it make that charmed orc tell the truth?"
"It's not that it's impossible, but it's for someone else to use..."
He felt disgusted.
It's best to only give it to Shu Ning.
"That's amazing! I just hope no one else will use it on me like that."
Seeing his hesitation, Shu Ning didn't pursue the topic any further.
"Don't worry, as long as you wear the necklace I gave you, ordinary foxes won't be able to use their charm on you."
"Um."
...
The group then arrived at the entrance of the Jintong Cave.
Mo Li and Yi Yuan went to find some firewood.
Jin Tong went into the cave and brought out a pot filled with water.
Shu Ning looked at these things in surprise.
"Jin Tong, what you've done..."
"Don't misunderstand, this wasn't taken from Xuanmo."
“While you were away, the Holy Mother sent orcs to teach us the skills.”
"sharp!"
"Ningning is really amazing; she understands even such a novel and complex process."
"Everyone is busy researching and making these containers now."
After finding the firewood, Mo Li and Yi Yuan put it aside and were about to start a fire by rubbing sticks together.
Shu Ning took out a lighter and lit a fire in the pile of firewood they had prepared.
Mo Li had seen her play before, so she wasn't surprised.
Others are different.
Surprised by the lighter that Shu Ning had conjured up out of nowhere, everyone gathered around to watch.
"Ningning, where did you come from?" Jin Tong asked.
"Teach me quickly!"
"I don't know how to make this either, but I'll definitely teach you when I find a more convenient fire-starting tool in the future."
"You said it yourself, so teach me first."
"Um."
Then she lit a fire on the stove that Jin Tong had set up earlier.
"Jin Tong, how did you end up cooking it like that in a pot?"
"That's easy. Ningning can make pots, but I don't even know how to use one. How can I be your beast husband?"
Shu Ning gave him a thumbs up, "Amazing."
Nightmare watched all their actions with curiosity.
"It seems I need to learn more from our wolf clan."
When Yi Yuan saw that she had created so many new gadgets in the ten days or so that he was away, he couldn't help but feel surprised and proud of her.
"My Ningning is amazing, she even shares with everyone."
"Ningning, come back to our Viper Tribe more often and teach them how to use it."
Yan was displeased upon hearing this, "If we're going anywhere, we should go to our Crimson Flame Mountain first."
"First come, first served, understand?"
"Get to the nearest before the farthest, understand?"
"Do you want to tire her out?" Mo Li asked.
“Ningning, let’s go back to the Jiao Clan to visit them another day. My mother must miss you.”
"Tch, I don't think there's a single one who truly cares about her; they're all just thinking about their own tribes."
Just as Jin Tong was about to agree with Mo Li, he heard him say the same thing as them the next second and scoffed at him.
"If you want to learn skills for your own tribe, you should learn them yourself and go back to teach them."
Shu Ning gave him an approving look.
