The ape placed all four bags of rice inside the house and smiled brightly, "I'll leave them here. If you need a deal like this again, come back to me!"
Shen Qi nodded, "I will."
As soon as he left, Ai Chu leaned over to her and said, "Qiqi, what are we going to do with all this rice? It won't be easy to take it with us when we leave."
Shen Qi didn't answer, but picked up the straps of the three bags of rice, leaving only one bag, and put them all into the space without any hesitation.
Ai Chu was surprised to see Mi disappear out of thin air, and was speechless, "Qi... Qiqi, what's going on?"
"My ability."
"Wow... so amazing." Ai Chu looked infatuated, "Qiqi must have a beast form!"
How could such a powerful female not have a beast form? The last time the female from the Evil Beast City mocked Qiqi, it must be because Qiqi was too disdainful to fight her in beast form.
Shen Qi smiled without saying anything, lying on the bed with her eyes closed to rest for a while.
Seeing that she was a little tired, Ai Chu stopped talking and picked up the dead leaves blown into the inner room by the wind and threw them out.
As soon as she threw it under the nearest tree, she saw a figure rushing towards the house at lightning speed.
She recognized him at once in his flamboyant orange-red animal robe and hurriedly called out, "What are you doing?"
Yan Di paused, turned around and saw her running towards him in a hurry. His brows furrowed, "What's wrong? Where's Xiao Qi?"
"Why are you here again? Don't disturb her, she's resting."
"Wang has something to talk to her about, so of course I have to come." He felt depressed when talking about this. Ever since Xiaoqi came, he has been like a messenger every day.
He had clearly just said goodbye to Xiao Qi not long ago. As soon as he returned, he happened to run into Yuan Ze, who asked him to pass on a message to ask the half-male orc to come over.
Who else could this half-male orc be? He wanted to refuse. Life is so short, why should he suffer injustice? But seeing his gloomy eyes, he still thought about his neck.
So, he turned back to the way he had come, with a look of resentment on his face.
"Wait until Qiqi wakes up before taking her away."
Yan Di pursed his lips, said nothing, and walked towards the door again.
Ai Chu grabbed him and said, "She just went to bed!"
Yan Di took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, "I'll wait at the door, okay? But I won't wait long."
Ai Chu loosened his grip on his hide, "Okay."
Shen Qi only dozed off for a while and did not fall into a deep sleep. She slowly opened her dark eyes, stood up and sat on the edge of the bed, looking around, but did not see Ai Chu.
"Ai Chu?" No one responded for a long while.
Shen Qi frowned and stood up quickly.
"Hey, I think I heard Qiqi calling me." Ai Chu kept pushing Yan Di, and his eyes, which were about to close, suddenly opened.
Shen Qi also heard Ai Chu's voice outside the cave, and it seemed... there were other people?
When she walked out, she happened to see Yan Di looking at her with a face full of resentment. This resentment seemed to be enough to feed ten evil sword immortals...
Shen Qi coughed lightly and asked what was wrong.
Ai Chu also saw that he was full of resentment, so he answered for him, "Qiqi, this is what happened. I saw him rushing to find you, but your sleep is more important, so I asked him to wait a while!"
"Hmm?" Shen Qi asked, "What else do you want from me?"
"It's not me looking for you, it's Ze looking for you." When he said the last few words, he clenched his teeth tightly.
Shen Qi heard his increasingly serious tone and knew where his resentment came from.
Running around just to help someone pass on a message, how can I not complain?
"Then take me there." Shen Qi lowered her eyelids, thinking that the evil beast king knew that she was a female, and wondered why he was looking for her this time.
Following him, we arrived at the round stone city again. As soon as we entered, we looked into the eyes of the male beast sitting in the main seat.
His evil and cold eyes stared at her deeply.
With a "crack", the flame flickered in the darkness, and the small flames on the wall continued to rise, quickly illuminating the entire circular city.
Yan Di sat leisurely in an empty seat and asked her to sit down as well.
Yuanze had no objection and agreed to let her sit down.
After sitting down, Shen Qi looked up at him, waiting for her next words.
Yuan Ze opened his thin lips and said, "Let me let you go of this matter..."
When Shen Qi heard the word "leave", he pricked up his ears and listened carefully, but he hesitated to speak.
She said directly, "Can I leave?"
"No." He said decisively, looking at her wantonly.
Seeing her speechless, he raised the corners of his mouth, and his thin lips outlined a perfect arc, "I was thinking of letting you go before, but... now I don't want to do that anymore."
Shen Qi said in a cold tone, "Before you said it depends on my mood, but now you are breaking your promise?"
"You are so useful, it would be a pity to let you go. Listen to me, stay here, and do your duty as a witch doctor. I will do my best to satisfy you with whatever you want."
"You stay by my side. With this authority, the beastmen in Demonic Beast City won't dare to do anything to you. How do you do that?"
When Yan Di heard this, he was stunned and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
What was he talking about? Staying by his side meant that I was on the same level as him?
Although keeping her here was indeed a great idea, and he recognized her abilities, Ze actually said that he could still meet her requirements?!
Oh my god, what is going on?
Even if he valued her very much, it wouldn't be to this extent! This was the first time he heard him take the initiative to meet someone else's request.
He said his heart couldn't take it anymore.
Shen Qi was slightly surprised, and pondered his words in her heart. He had thought about killing her again and again before, and now he wanted to keep her?
Her eyes flashed, and she didn't take his words to heart, but...it was still necessary to agree. Now she had to gain his trust, but she didn't know how much truth there was in his words.
Just as he was about to agree, a sharp and angry voice came from the cave entrance.
"Wang, are you going to abandon me?"
I saw Ruolan standing at the entrance of the cave, biting her lips hard, with a look of worry revealed between her brows.
She happened to hear these words, and his words hit her like a bolt from the blue.
Standing beside him meant completely replacing her. She had been by the king's side for so long, and with just one order from the king, he was going to let this beast replace her?!
She was so angry that she almost exploded, her chest heaving, and her finger trembling as she pointed at Chen Qi, "I have followed the king for so long, and this beast has only been here for a short time? You give him so much power and position, aren't you afraid that he will betray you in the future!"
Yuanze rested his elbows on his legs, his hands folded together to support his pointed chin, his eyes like a cold blade, icy and ruthless.
Ruolan saw a horrifying look of terror in his eyes, which made her feel a pain deep in her bones, and even breathing became extremely difficult.
Yan Di suddenly felt the temperature in the air drop sharply, and the hairs on his body stood up. He immediately stood up, isolated himself from Yuanze's cold gaze, and pulled her away.
