Ding... Dong Dong...
"Come and sit down."
Sammek was lying on his side on a soft bench, with an empty chair on each side behind him.
"Thank you, my lord."
Wang Xuefeng sat on the left with Xiao He, while Qingniao sat alone on the right.
Just then, the elven princess Rose and her maids were dancing. The melodious music complemented their graceful movements, captivating the attention of the many snake people.
Xiao He stared intently for a long time, then suddenly turned to Wang Xuefeng beside him and asked in a low voice, "Should I also learn a couple of pieces?"
Wang Xuefeng blinked, and after a moment he couldn't help but chuckle: "Why are you suddenly asking that?"
"Doesn't it look beautiful when you spin around like that?"
"good."
"I'll try it next time and show it to you, okay?"
"puff……"
Wang Xuefeng couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Although Sammek, who was in front, heard their whispers, he did not react at all.
Rose, on the stage, noticed the two talking intimately and felt a little puzzled, wondering why she had specifically called them to see her.
She looked stunned until the performance ended and she stepped off the stage, as if she hadn't heard what Sammy Kwan had just said.
“I said, make the Left Protector you bestowed upon me his second wife.”
“This…” Rose was struck dumb.
Before she could speak, Wang Xuefeng took the initiative to say, "My lord, we got married in Nuojin. According to Nuojin law, we are monogamous and cannot have a new wife. Therefore, we can only refuse your kind offer."
“It doesn’t matter. Anyway, one day there will only be one law in the whole world. You can keep it for now,” Sang Mai-kui said calmly.
"No rush, you can give it to me later." Wang Xuefeng smiled slightly.
“Then keep her as a maid.” Sang Mai-kui clearly didn’t want to take back what he’d said: “Isn’t my wife pregnant? It’ll be good to have someone else to take care of her.”
"No need for that. Xiao He isn't used to being taken care of by others. I'm fine with her."
Rose listened to the two of them talking back and forth, as if she were being kicked around like a ball.
"Are you disrespecting me by rejecting me in front of so many people?" Sangmaik finally turned his head slightly.
“That’s not what I meant. It’s just that this is a very important matter, and I can’t be so hasty.”
"Anyway, I've given you the person. What you do with him is up to you. It's none of my business." After saying that, Sang Maikui waved his hand, as if preparing to get up and leave.
“Alright then,” Wang Xuefeng nodded. “If there are no missions tonight, I’ll send her back to her kingdom tonight.”
Rose was taken aback; she had no intention of leaving.
"Instead of wasting time traveling a roundabout route, you might as well execute her on the spot, so that she won't be put to death by the king when she returns."
After uttering those words, Sangmaikui vanished into icy mist.
Rose silently watched the man in the chair. In her memory, he was so aloof, yet just now, when he was chatting and laughing with the woman beside him, he was as gentle as a spring breeze.
"He seems very loyal to his wife... If I want to stay, I might really have to rely on him..."
Rose thought to herself, but outwardly remained calm and performed a kneeling bow: "Master."
Xiao He tilted his head and glanced at Wang Xuefeng.
Xiao He's eyes: What do you mean by that?
Wang Xuefeng's eyes suggested: This is probably not a simple matter.
Xiao He's eyes: Are you spying on me? Are you spying on us?
Wang Xuefeng's expression: Almost.
Xiao He's eyes: But he looks like an unlucky fellow, should we get rid of him?
Wang Xuefeng's eyes: We can look for an opportunity.
Xiao He's eyes seemed to say: Alright, I'll accept it for now and see what tricks he plays later!
Wang Xuefeng nodded silently.
"Get up. There's nothing much to do usually, so you can serve my wife for a while."
"Okay, I understand." Rose breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing the elf princess's expression, the bluebird beside her smiled with amusement.

The snake people tribe did not enjoy much luxury; they were probably only slightly better off than the cavemen.
Having grown accustomed to sleeping on a large, soft bed, Xiao He found the "bed" made of uneven stones and fur mats quite uncomfortable.
"I should have put a mattress in my backpack!" she muttered resentfully.
Rose was also helping her set up the temporary room, rarely speaking, but secretly observing her whenever she had the chance.
Wang Xuefeng went to carry out a temporary mission for Sangmaikui and was expected to return to the snake people tribe late at night, so he told Xiao He not to wait for him and to get some rest.
Although the latter was not a well-behaved person, she wouldn't deliberately wander off when she was in an unfamiliar place.
Yang Xing: I cried.
Yang Xing: What a treasure trove this is...!
[Xiao He: Just look at it, you can't take it away~]
[Yang Xing: I'm even thinking of moving!!]
[Xiao He: Next year, let's tinker with your mechanical army and start exploring the wilderness slowly.]
[Yang Xing: Hey, what do you think? Should we move the humans there, or should we stay in Nuojin?]
[Xiao He: Let's wait a bit. Xuefeng said there's frequent fighting here, so we need to preserve Nuojin.]
Yang Xing: Okay! Then I'll finalize the base plan!
[Xiao He: Hmm, just think of that place as home and this place as the mine, no problem. But you'll have to figure out a way to handle this kind of long-distance mining and transportation.]
[Yang Xing: Absolutely! I've also been researching the Zuniga Pass recently, and your girlfriend is very reliable!]
[Xiao He: What girlfriend?]
Yang Xing: Female friend
[Yang Xing: Her mental arithmetic speed is almost the same as my current computer's calculation speed, it's simply superhuman!]
[Xiao He: Then you should contact her more often. Anyway, I'll help you in any way I can here.]
[Yang Xing: By the way, Angelina went to look for you, she should still be on her way, did you know?]
[Xiao He: I received its message]
[Yang Xing: Then take good care of it. And those dragon fossils are in your backpack, right?]
[Xiao He: Present]
Yang Xing: That's fine then, but if you revive a bunch of dragons, remember not to bring them back!
Xiao He: ...
After closing the chat window, Xiao He looked at the coordinates of the robot Beibei on the map, which was clearly still drilling deeper into the rock.
"Forget it, let's just ignore him..."
"Even if we get caught, nobody will know what it is..."
After laying down several layers of fur, Xiao He finally lay down comfortably.
Rose stood by and watched her, not leaving without her orders.
"Are you... a princess?" Xiao He asked, turning his head to the side.
"No, that's no longer the case. My lady, you can just call me Rose."
"Young Master?" Xiao He was taken aback.
“Yes, the Lord’s sister is the young lord, as the Lord has commanded,” Rose replied respectfully.
Xiao He didn't know much about other races, but he was still very curious: "You're a princess, why did you voluntarily lower your status?"
Rose shook her head slightly, her tone quite casual.
"'Princess' is just a title used within our clan. Compared to the gods, we elves are nothing..."
