"Female Luo Xing, you are too smart." After a while, Yue Huang said this in an unclear tone, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.
Facing their pressure, Ye Luoxing calmly stared at them. Then, she suddenly reached out and took back the two pages of the notebook from Yue Huang's hand. She closed the notebook and put it back into her cloak, actually putting it back into the space. She said indifferently, "Forget it, I'll collect it myself."
Yue Huang's hands were suddenly empty. She was moving too fast for him to adapt. He asked, "Why did you suddenly change your mind?"
Ye Luoxing smiled wryly and said directly: "Because I don't trust you."
She didn't trust the information they recorded, and she didn't want to reveal the information she collected to them.
Yue Huang's breathing was so light that it was almost inaudible. He was like a wild wolf in the dark, staring at the prey in front of him with covetous eyes.
In the silence, only his unclear chuckle could be heard: "These things..." cannot satisfy us.
They simply looked down upon the news about these low-level beasts, but Yue Huang rarely refrained from saying the last few words. No matter who provoked them, Yue Huang and his men were not afraid. They could openly admit their purpose because they knew that when the enemy beasts faced them, they would only be filled with fear. However, this was the first time Yue Huang paused like this, because the female in front of them was mysterious and dangerous, which they could not understand.
They weren't even sure whether her actions just now were a deliberate test.
Ye Luoxing, Ye Luoxing...
"Female, are you from the South?" Yue Huang asked.
"Yes." Ye Luoxing had already opened the food package he had just brought up and took off his mask.
Seeing her beautiful and bright face again, the hearts of the male beasts on the opposite side couldn't help but skip a beat. Yue Huang saw her pick up a fruit and eat it. He slowly said, "You are lying."
Ye Luoxing didn't care how he saw it, he just ate his food calmly: "Whatever you think."
Yue Huang noticed a pile of grilled meat placed in a large shell in the middle. He asked again, "Did those birds and beasts help you grill it? You don't eat raw meat?"
"Don't you think you talk too much nonsense?" Ye Luoxing picked up a piece of meat with a wooden skewer and swallowed it. She had been staying with Lyle and the others all day these days. They had become more familiar with each other and understood each other's living habits. Lyle and the others would take the initiative to help her grill the meat and wash the fruits, and Ye Luoxing would share the seasonings with them.
But they still prefer to eat raw food. Fortunately, the participating orcs brought a wide variety of food, ranging from small insects to large beef. However, despite this, Lyle and the others still followed the method Ye Luoxing taught them and sprinkled the seasonings on the barbecue according to the proportion. Orcs do not distinguish between species, and their five senses are far superior to humans, so the barbecue tastes very good.
Yue Huang was once again retorted by Ye Luoxing. It was not the first time that she did not answer his question. Yue Huang's deep eyes swept across her slender white fingers and her flawless face. He could smell that her own scent was fragrant and she was not stained by dust at all.
But her heart clearly wasn't...
Yue Huang spoke again: "Why haven't you been affected by the toxins after purifying so much food?"
Ye Luoxing swallowed a piece of barbecue. She raised her head and answered his question: "Who told you that I was not affected by the poison?"
On this point, she must not reveal any flaws. At least in front of this group of unidentified orcs, she must ensure her own safety. She knows that the females in the beast world have risked their lives to preserve the existence of orcs, and because of this, they have been protected by the "Beast God" in the eyes of the orcs. However, Ye Luoxing is a human being, an outsider. Although she is not affected by the toxin, she may not be protected by the Beast God!
Ye Luoxing had thought about this problem a long time ago. If the orcs knew about this, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for her.
Yue Huang's gaze slid down to her tightly wrapped body: "Oh? Really?"
Ye Luoxing continued eating fruit: "You really don't know how to keep quiet."
Yue Huang smiled. He leaned back on the stone chair, supporting his cheek with one hand, and watched her eat.
Although Ye Luoxing didn't like their gazes, he ignored them.
More than ten minutes passed and Ye Luoxing had almost finished his lunch. Seeing that they neither ate nor looked hungry, Ye Luoxing really began to think about Yue Shang's words. Could these guys be ghosts?
She couldn't help but said, "Aren't you going out to find something to eat? I won't help you purify it."
The male beast with white curly hair replied to her: "Female, don't worry, we have already eaten."
"?" Ye Luoxing didn't know when they had eaten, or maybe before she came back, so he didn't ask any further.
Yue Huang, however, noticed she had spoken and couldn't help but speak to her again, "Female Luo Xing, are you planning to stay wrapped up like this until you finish your business and leave Midnight City? You have no plans to reveal your disguise in front of the nobles? Or perhaps, participate in this Beast King selection?"
"I won't ask too much about your affairs, and you don't have to ask too much about my affairs." Ye Luoxing finished eating the last fruit, wiped his mouth, put on his mask and hat again, leaned back in his chair, looked at the competition stage outside, and enjoyed the sunshine coming in from the window.
Yue Huang and the others found that her eyes sparkled in the sunlight, and soft light enveloped her whole body, as if she was in a different world from them.
This time, Yue Huang spoke again, but it wasn't a question: "Okay, after you finish your work, go back to the Southland."
Ye Luoxing turned to him in confusion. She was very surprised because he clearly didn't believe that she was an orc from the South.
She just said in an ambiguous way, "It's still early. I still have to stay for more than twenty days."
Yue Huang murmured softly: "Twenty or more days..." The time is just right.
The orcs behind Yue Huang seemed to understand what she meant, and they also realized that she left at the right time.
The corners of their mouths wrapped in animal skins were all curled up in strange smiles, and each of those smiles had its own meaning.
Ye Luoxing sat quietly for a while and then planned to leave. She still had to go to the clinic to guard it. She thought back then, she had opened the arena and the clinic in two opposing territories in the city to avoid trouble. She thought that if something happened on one side, at least the other side could be protected. But now she was running back and forth every day, and she didn't know if any orcs would notice anything. She could only be vigilant.
It's noon now, there are fewer orcs, so it's easier to move. This is also the aftereffect of being followed so much in the past two days...
Ye Luoxing stood up and was about to walk to the back window. Yue Huang and the others were staring at her sneaky behavior of not going through the main door. At this moment, Ye Luoxing from the window suddenly remembered something, looked back, and said, "Oh, I forgot one most important thing. Tomorrow night, you must go to a place with me. Don't ask any questions. This is your reward for taking you in."
"...Okay." Yue Huang agreed. He looked at the cunning light in her eyes, and then she turned over and jumped down from the second floor.
