Feng Qinghuang was curious when she saw that the demon bull hadn't taken any pills.
"What's wrong, Little Niu? Don't you want to eat? Or are you afraid I'll poison you?"
The Demon Bull snorted, "You little brat, you already know, why are you asking!"
Feng Qinghuang looked at the Demon Bull with amusement; it was actually quite arrogant.
"Little calf, if you don't eat, your injuries won't heal. Since you're just waiting to die, I might as well kill you. That way, I'll have dinner sorted out. And I can also solve my dinner problem for many days to come."
Demon Bull was somewhat bewildered by her unusual card playing.
"You little human, how can you be so cruel? You beat me up like this, and now you even want to eat my flesh. How can you be so heartless?"
Feng Qinghuang squatted on the ground, staring at it: "What, didn't you want to eat me at first? You can swallow me if you want, but I can't eat your flesh?"
The demon bull was a little embarrassed when she saw through his thoughts: "Who wants to eat you? I just came here to try my luck because your scent smells so good."
Feng Qinghuang asked in confusion, "Why do you keep saying I smell nice? But I can't smell anything. Isn't it just the smell of sweat from being in this secret realm for so many days?"
"What do you know, little girl? Only our magical beasts and spirit beasts can smell your scent. You humans can't smell it at all."
Feng Qinghuang didn't want to argue about what it said anymore, since there was no way to verify it anyway.
"Alright, I knew long ago that you didn't hurt my feelings. Otherwise, why do you think I gave you the pills to heal your wounds? Hurry up and eat them, or things will get bad if you keep bleeding."
Without further hesitation, the demonic bull curled its tongue to pick up the pill and put it in its mouth. Soon after, it felt the pain in its body lessen considerably.
The demon bull stood up shakily and thanked Feng Qinghuang.
Feng Qinghuang waved her hand: "Alright, let's go. Take good care of your injuries. Maybe you can give me some practice later."
When the Demon Bull heard her words, his heart skipped a beat. He didn't want to see her again.
"If you go any further in, there will be even higher-level magical beasts than me. Be careful, little girl."
Feng Qinghuang waved her hand: "Okay, I understand. Goodbye, Little Cow."
When Demon Bull heard her address, he felt he was used to it and it wasn't so unpleasant to hear.
The demon bull nodded its enormous head, then turned and ran into the depths of the forest.
After running over, the ground was covered in dust again.
Feng Qinghuang waved her sleeves incessantly, covering her mouth and nose: "Cough cough cough, can't this little calf move a little slower? It's polluting."
The little flower on her wrist spoke up: "Master, why does this demon bull look so silly?"
"Perhaps it's because I haven't seen many people that I find humans fragrant."
Little Flower swayed her petals from side to side: "No, Master, your scent will attract all the beasts. The Demon Bull is right. But some want to eat you in order to advance their level, while others want to acknowledge you as their master and stay by your side, which will bring them great opportunities."
Feng Qinghuang asked, "What about Xiaohua?"
Little Flower shook her head: "Little Flower is of course the latter, but Little Flower also knows that following Master will bring great benefits. By absorbing Master's spiritual energy, we can advance. If our contracted beasts advance, Master will also advance."
Feng Qinghuang nodded. So that's how it is. But what exactly is it about her that attracts the beasts?
"The Demon Bull just said that if we go any further in, there will be even higher-level magical beasts. Little Flower, are you scared?"
Little Flower shook her head: "Don't worry, Master. If you can't beat it, I'll swallow it whole."
Feng Qinghuang couldn't help but chuckle: "Little Flower, are you hungry again?"
When Xiaohua heard her master say that, she lowered her head in shame.
"Alright, there's a stream here, I'll go catch some fish for you, grill them, and then make some fish soup."
After Feng Qinghuang finished speaking, she went to the stream to catch fish, while the Treasure-Seeking Beast and Tuanzi jumped down to gather firewood.
When Feng Qinghuang returned after cleaning the fish, Tuanzi came back with a large stack of firewood wrapped around its tail.
"Wow, my Tuanzi and Xiaobao know how to do chores now!"
Tuanzi quickly placed the firewood on its tail aside, then ran to Feng Qinghuang's side and curled up, waiting for her to feed it.
Feng Qinghuang took out a pot from her spatial storage, threw in the fish and some seasonings, added some water, then set up the firewood and placed the pot on it to cook.
The fish were skewered and grilled over the fire.
Sigh, this whole trip has been like a mother hen taking care of the little ones. And these beasts are no easier to take care of than the little ones!
After taking care of these little ones and feeding them, Feng Qinghuang was exhausted.
Feng Qinghuang casually washed up by the river, then instructed Tuanzi and Xiaohua to keep watch, while she found a tree branch, covered herself with her cloak, and went to sleep.
Night fell quietly, and a soft ray of moonlight shone on Feng Qinghuang's face, like a dream.
