Chapter 35
Noticing the sharp gazes from others looking at him, Xiao Wan looked back at them one by one.
"Did I say anything wrong? Otherwise, think about it yourselves, who took the initiative to prepare food for Cheng Fu?"
After a moment of silence, Phil spoke up: "I gave you that sweet potato."
Phil's treasure chest in the ruins continues to refresh. Food is precious in the apocalypse. Not to mention other things, Phil will still search for water and food every day.
When he was a guardian beast, he couldn't get too far away from the pollutants. Now that the pollutants have been removed, he has become Cheng Fu's beast husband again. The previous restrictions are no longer a bondage to him, and he enjoys the fun of opening treasure chests even more.
This morning, when Xiao Wanyi mentioned wanting to grill something, Phil felt that the treasure chest had too much food and was taking up too much space, so he threw it to him and cleared out his own inventory. Who would have thought that this idiot would actually use this to offer something to someone else?!
"Fallen leaves, I provided them." Wen Geng added casually as he passed by.
"I mixed the outer layer of mud." Xi Qiancheng leaned against the wall and whispered.
Ying Xue was amused and turned to Xiao Wanyi: "You just lit a fire, and you're showing off?"
Xiao Wanyi could no longer maintain the smug smile on his face.
He admits what others say about him, but what about Ying Xue?
"I did contribute to the lighting of the fire, didn't I? What about you?" Xiao Wanyi curled his lips.
Ying Xue stayed with Cheng Fu all night, so there was nothing for him to do with roasting sweet potatoes, right?
However, Xiao Wan also underestimated Ying Xue.
Ying Xue ignored him and directly took out a piece of sweet potato from the pile of leaves. The skin was specially wrapped with a layer of ice. She broke it open and handed it to Cheng Fu: "Here, eat it while it's hot. This way you won't burn your hands and won't get them dirty."
Cheng Fu took it, blew on it and took a bite. With the help of the ice cubes, it was just enough to be eaten after just blowing on it.
"How is it? Is it sweet?" Ying Xue asked.
Cheng Fu nodded: "Very sweet."
Xiao Wanyi almost laughed out loud when he saw this: "You're so good, Ying Xue, you took all the credit!"
He had been silent before, but now, after spending a night with Cheng Fu, his true nature was fully revealed! Xiao Wanyi wanted to continue, but Cheng Fu put the other half of the sweet potato close to his mouth, blocking his words.
“!”
"You have to be very careful with the heat when baking this, right? Try it yourself, it's really delicious. Our Big Phoenix is an expert at baking sweet potatoes!"
Xiao Wanyi took a bite, swallowed it, and then complained softly: "You're coaxing a child."
Even though he complained, he still raised the corners of his mouth while eating. He deliberately walked past other people while eating, muttering: "This half roasted sweet potato is extra sweet!"
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was provoking her, but Cheng Fu quickly lowered her head and avoided looking at the other beastly husbands.
Xiao Wanyi's hatred kept growing, and he accidentally dragged her into it. Then everyone would come to beg him to feed them sweet potatoes... This scene was hilarious just thinking about it.
It's not that the others were too lazy to argue with Xiao Wanyi, but they had more important things to do and had to seize the opportunity - Phil and Ying Xue were quick-witted and quick-handed. While Xiao Wanyi was showing off in circles, they quickly took the seats on the left and right sides of Cheng Fu. When Xiao Wanyi turned around and saw them asking Cheng Fu about her well-being, her smile froze.
Xiao Wanyi: "..."
unwise!
After everyone started eating breakfast, Wen Gengting asked Ying Xue, "Have you experienced any changes since you and your guardian beast have been symbiotic?"
After that, everyone looked at Ying Xue who was handing water to Cheng Fu.
He froze for a moment, stuffed the water into Cheng Fu's hands, and then spoke in a feigned indifference, "Perhaps it's because it's too weak, I haven't sensed the presence of another person yet. However, I can use its power and memories at will."
Ying Xue felt that just talking might not be enough, so she chose an open space to start the demonstration.
"Just like its moves..." Ying Xue opened her hands into claws.
Cheng Fu only saw that at that moment, a cold air seemed to condense between Ying Xue's fingers, covering Ying Xue's hand. As he stretched out his claws and swung, a strong wind swept past.
"Boom—"
One of the walls of the ruins collapsed due to the sharp claws swung by Xue, and the fallen wall debris was even frozen into ice. The sharpness of the claws was enough to cut through the entire wall!
"Have your own abilities also been enhanced?" Xi Qiancheng saw the key.
Ying Xue nodded: "Besides, I was restraining my strength. Otherwise, if the ruins were damaged too much, it would also affect me."
As he spoke, he pressed his temples: "That hit just now made my head start to hurt."
At first, no one noticed anything was wrong.
Until Cheng Fu said: "It's okay, I will help you with the treatment."
Ying Xue seemed to have been waiting for this, and had already put her forehead close to Cheng Fu's lips.
Others: “…”
Ying Xue, who had recovered with full health, asked in high spirits, "Do you want me to use 80% of my strength this time?"
"You'd better sit down." Phil's smile was murderous.
They are all thousand-year-old foxes, why are they still playing Liao Zhai?
Ying Xue had never noticed before, but as long as she got a little closer to Cheng Fu, other people's expressions would immediately change, and this happened every time.
In the past, he envied Xi Qiancheng, who was always treated differently by the female master. Now that the positions have been reversed, Ying Xue finally knows what it feels like, and it is indeed sour.
"The power has been demonstrated, but what about the memory? Can you tell me why the guardian beast has become so weak?" Cheng Fu has been concerned about this since yesterday.
Since the guardian beast is as powerful as the pollutant, how could the little kitten yesterday be almost unable to protect itself?
Regarding this point, Ying Xue was just looking for an opportunity to say, "I discovered from its memory that a group of people entered the ruins specifically targeting the guardian beast."
"You mean... someone took that rumor seriously and actually caused harm to the guardian beast?" Wen Gengting asked.
"Well, to be specific, they both suffered losses. Although they injured the guardian beast, they themselves were also seriously injured and had to evacuate."
Cheng Fu suddenly realized: "No wonder I didn't see anyone else."
It turned out that he went there to recuperate.
The pollutants discovered that the guardian beast was seriously injured, so they took advantage of the opportunity and sneaked in, which led to everything that happened yesterday.
"Moreover, it seems that there is more than one group of people. In addition to this relic, they also plan to attack other ruins."
at the same time.
canyon.
The ruins collapsed and smoke and dust filled the sky.
Several orcs on the ground were seriously injured and unconscious, and some were even buried by the ruins. However, a figure walked out from the rolling dust.
He was surrounded by a black and purple mist, which merged into his body, revealing his appearance.
The man had a lion's head and a human body, but the moment the black mist penetrated his skin, the lion's head began to change, gradually becoming the appearance of an adult male. The only remaining animal features were the lion's ears and the tail behind him.
He has wheat-colored skin and straight black hair that falls past his shoulders. When he opens his eyes, a dark purple mist replaces his pupil color, making his handsome appearance look a bit strange.
"I told you I would find you—"
He spoke, his low, hoarse voice exactly the same as the one Cheng Fu heard in her dream.
