Xilan Meng also did not answer Jiaxibai's doubts. He just glanced at the place just now and calmly stated his request: "Although they are northern beasts, they are not useless orcs. There is no need to do this. Let them rest for a while and eat something so that they can have strength. Don't do anything excessive."
Xilan Meng's gaze shifted back, and Jiaxibai met those blue eyes. Feeling the coldness in those blue eyes, he didn't say much, but nodded in response: "I understand, Elder..."
Jiaxibai clapped his hands and shouted to the group of strange beasts behind him: "Let them stop and eat something."
The group of strange beasts frowned slightly, but still told the group of northern beasts to rest without showing any obvious dissatisfaction.
The beasts of the north murmured her name...
By the river, Jiaxibai smiled at Xilan Meng and said, "Is this all right? Don't worry, the male beast won't be disabled."
It seemed as if he was talking to Xilan Meng, but also seemed to be talking to Ye Luoxing. The peripheral vision of Jiaxibai and Xilan Meng fell on the female beside them at the same time.
Then, when Xilan Meng turned directly to Ye Luoxing, Jiaxibai followed suit and took the initiative to talk: "Female Luoxing, you are not very familiar with Yancheng and its orcs. If you have any requests, you can come to me."
"The king beast is not here, so you'd better be careful when you act alone." Jiaxibai's words were ambiguous.
I don't know if it's a warning, a kind reminder, or something else...
"Don't worry." Ye Luoxing said these four words indifferently.
At this time, Xilan Meng looked at her gently, smiled and said, "Shall we go?"
"Yeah." Ye Luoxing nodded, turned around and continued walking forward along the river.
After she turned around, Xilan Meng glanced at Jiaxibai coldly. The glance was so quick, so fast that it only took a moment, but Jiaxibai felt a chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. His expression froze on his face, and his body was even more frozen in place.
When Xilan Meng caught up with Ye Luoxing, the coldness in his eyes had long since disappeared, as if everything that had just happened was just an illusion of a beast...
It was not until the two figures walked away for a long distance that Gasibai came to his senses after looking at them from afar.
At this time, the high-level alien beast that had previously taught the Northern Beast a lesson had come up behind Jia Xibai. He looked at the two figures that were leaving and said in a deep voice, "Is Elder Xilan Meng going to blatantly compete with the King Beast for a mate? The King Beast is not here, and he's already alone with the Ye Luoxing female so soon."
"The King Beast knows about this." Gasibai added.
"Hmm?" The high-level beast raised his eyebrows and looked at Gasibai, not knowing what he wanted to express specifically.
Jiaxibai turned and walked towards the group of wooden houses: "Since the King Beast didn't say anything, then we don't have to care."
The high-level beast finally understood what Jia Xibai meant. As the two figures disappeared into the distance, he followed Jia Xibai's steps and stopped discussing the matter.
The moist wind blew on the faces of the two figures by the river, and Ye Luoxing felt a chill on his face.
Xilan Meng asked considerately: "Are you cold?"
Ye Luoxing shook his head: "Not cold."
After leaving that place, no one mentioned what had just happened, as if nothing had happened.
Xilan Meng looked at the slowly flowing river and asked her with a smile: "Do you like eating fish?"
"Ah?" Ye Luoxing turned to him in surprise.
She hesitated for a few seconds before asking him, "Aren't you a fish beast?"
He himself is a fish beast, but he asked her if she likes to eat fish. Generally, beastmen will still protect the beasts of their own tribe. At least they will not ask females whether they like to eat "their race" in front of them.
However, Ye Luoxing suddenly thought of the food chain under the sea, and realized that he was overthinking it...
Xilan Meng had already started to answer her: "I am indeed a fish beast, but what you like to eat has nothing to do with my race. This is how beasts fight, so your own preferences are the most important."
The fact that he could say this gave Ye Luoxing a different impression of him.
"I eat fish occasionally." Ye Luoxing did not deny it.
Xilan Meng smiled, looked around, and looked at a stone by the river in front of him. He said, "We've been walking for a while. Let's take a break. I'll catch some fish for you."
"..." Ye Luoxing thought of the injuries all over his body, but still nodded and agreed, "Okay."
He really needed to rest, but she was curious about how he planned to catch fish for her...
Ye Luoxing walked over to the rock and sat down. She saw Xilan Meng walking towards the water, and she warned him, "You are injured, don't get wet."
"It's okay, I'm a fish beast." Xilan Meng looked back at her and added, "When the beastmen in the sea fight, they get hurt too, don't they?"
He looked very beautiful when he smiled. He stood with his feet in the water, the water surface was sparkling, and the sun was shining on him. The mermaid orcs were indeed the most beautiful when they were in the water, like another layer of natural filter.
But his words reminded her.
Yes, the orcs in the sea can also get hurt...
She didn't try to stop him, but watched him walk into the river step by step. She thought he would transform into a beast, but he didn't. She thought of something and asked curiously, "Do you have a complete beast form?"
When she asked this, Xilan Meng's eyes darkened a little, and then he replied: "No, our beast form is a fish tail, but the fish tail of our mermaids is more aggressive than that of all the fish in the sea tribe."
"So that's how it is..." she murmured.
She stared at Xilan Meng, who had smooth blue hair in the river, while Xilan Meng stared at the river. Ye Luoxing asked again, "You fish tribe should have a way to catch fish quickly, right?"
"Indeed, there is, but it requires the use of animal form." Xilan Meng answered her.
She asked again: "Then why don't you transform into a beast?"
Xilan Meng turned around and looked at her with a smile: "Because I was injured."
Ye Luoxing: “…”
So at this moment, did those injuries affect him, or not?
She stopped talking and stared quietly. Xilan Meng also continued to stare quietly at the river. Perhaps because he was trying to catch fish, the surroundings were surprisingly quiet. Then, after less than ten seconds, Xilan Meng quickly reached into the water with both hands.
"Puff!" Water splashed, and Ye Luoxing saw Xilan Meng raised his hand. In his hand, there was already the lively fish. The two fish were very big, and they felt as long as Ye Luoxing's calf...
She was shocked and her eyes widened.
As expected of a mermaid, it's incredibly fast at catching fish. Even without transforming into a beast or using any tools, it can still do it so neatly...
"The fishing skills are maxed out!" Yue Shang couldn't help but applaud.
Xilan Meng turned around in the water, raised the two fish in his hand to Ye Luoxing, and said with a smile: "I know you don't eat raw food, I will roast them for you. This kind of fish tastes very good."
The moment Xilan Meng turned around, water splashed and water droplets fell on him, making him beautiful and mysterious.
Ye Luoxing and Yue Shang were also stunned for a second.
She saw him walking towards the shore, but as he walked, blood appeared on the surface of the river behind him.
