Xiang Wan was speechless, and didn't even have time to cover her mouth.
I need to teach him a lesson when I get back. He's acting way too fast. Couldn't he have considered the situation first before making a decision?
The saber-toothed leopard, which appeared to reach almost to her chest, slowly turned its head, gave her and Bai San a long, brooding look, exhaled a puff of hot air from its nostrils, and then turned back, its rear end facing them.
Holy crap, it seems this leopard looks down on her too?
If she does nothing, won't she become a Ninja Turtle?
This is absolutely unacceptable!
Xiang Wan raised the stone knife in her hand and rushed forward to slash at the saber-toothed leopard's rear end.
This time, Bai San was dumbfounded. How could the youngest brother have become so impulsive, not even afraid of wild animals?
The youngest brother has already rushed out, what is he still standing there for? He did it!
The two rushed out one after the other, but before they could even touch the leopard's rump, they were tackled to the ground by a swift figure.
"Brothers, please, I beg you, save this young woman!"
Xiang Wan ran quite fast, and Bai San followed closely behind. Suddenly, he was tackled to the ground. It's easy to imagine how powerful the impact was.
Poor Xiang Wan's lower back was pressed directly against Bai San's knee, causing her to grimace in pain. Two soft mounds of flesh covered her chest. As she fell, she could feel them tremble, then they were flattened against her chest by the impact, giving her a shuddering sensation that felt almost suffocating. Thank goodness she wasn't a woman, or she would have been in excruciating pain.
She wanted to see if the person who could pounce on both her and Bai San, two men, and still call himself a "little woman," was a freak.
Turning her head, Xiang Wan was so shocked that she almost forgot to breathe when she saw the "little woman" who was flirting with her with a tender expression: the woman who called herself Wu Zetian was standing right in front of her and had even pounced on her!
Staring intently at the woman, Bai San thought that Lao Yao was about to choose a mate ahead of time. Poor Lao Yao, he'd been an adult for ages and hadn't even held a female's hand. Were they even letting single beastmen live?
The woman, clinging to Xiang Wan, stared wide-eyed: What's going on? She'd just casually pounced on an orc, and he was this beautiful? Oh dear, she thought she'd fallen for him at first sight. Should she pretend to be a lady and act reserved for a while? It seemed like being reserved wasn't a big deal in the orc world. What if she acted all serious and scared him away? That would be terrible!
"Young master, you don't need to look at me like that. I agree to your request."
The woman blushed and pouted as she leaned closer to Xiang Wan's face.
A large face drew closer and closer. Xiang Wan snapped back to reality, jerked herself to the side, quickly stood up, brushed the snow off her body, and stood behind Bai San, still shaken.
I was so scared! I almost lost my innocence!
The saber-toothed leopard watching from the sidelines: ...What happened to the fight?
Bai San, furious: ...What happened to the promised spouse?
The woman who was knocked to the ground: ...What happened to love at first sight?
Cong, who was confused: ...What happened to saving people?
What's going on?
They were all dumbfounded and stood frozen in place.
The saber-toothed leopard is fed up! Weren't they here to gang up on me? They're all ignoring me like this! So unprofessional! I must reclaim my dignity as the King of Beasts!
It roared with all its might, shaking the snow off the rocks. Xiang Wan and the others, who were nearby, covered their ears and squatted down with pale faces.
The saber-toothed leopard looked around and found Shi Cong to be the most pleasing to the eye, so he decided to go with him!
With its front body close to the ground and its hind legs pushing off, the saber-toothed leopard leaped to a height equivalent to flight.
Shi Cong calmly raised the stone knife with both hands, placed it on his head, and stood in place with his feet in a horse stance.
Well, if a saber-toothed leopard were to crash into it, it would turn into a pile of dead flesh. How would they possibly continue their journey?
Before she could finish speaking, Xiang Wan quickly said, "Spare its life!"
The saber-toothed leopard narrowed its eyes, thinking to itself that this orc was quite interesting, actually begging it to spare its prey.
Well, since this Beast King isn't hungry, I might as well keep it to play with.
Thinking this, the saber-toothed leopard retracted its claws in mid-air and changed from a pouncing attack to a capture.
Shi Cong remained still, his eyes fixed on the saber-toothed leopard. Just as it was about to get close, he suddenly turned the back of his stone knife upwards.
In a flash, the saber-toothed leopard leaped over Shi Cong's head, landed, and lay motionless on the snow.
Shi Cong slowly wiped the stone knife and tucked it into his waistband.
Xiang Wanxi twitched her nostrils, but she couldn't smell any blood. Why wasn't the leopard moving?
Curious, she walked over to the leopard and stood beside it for a closer look. Well, the creature had its head buried in the snow and was covering its head with its paws.
What's going on?
Xiang Wan looked at Shi Cong questioningly, but the latter patted the stone knife, shook his head, and acted as if it were none of his business.
Seeing Shi Cong's stone knife, there was indeed no blood. Could it be that the leopard was scared out of its wits? Or was it touched in a sensitive area and doesn't want to see anyone anymore?
The more Xiang Wan thought about it, the more certain she became that the leopard must be too ashamed to show its face.
Thinking about the leopard's actions (it would look at them with disdain), it was so different from ordinary wild animals (it wasn't hungry yet), and it seemed to have a lot of intelligence (it covered its face when it failed). For some reason, I felt like I was dealing with a certain system. How do I break through this?
System: This little one refuses to talk to the host! Hmph!
She's really good at smoothing things over.
She coughed lightly, squatted down, and said in a voice only she and the leopard could hear, "Follow us, and we'll guarantee you meat every day."
Saber-toothed Leopard: This beast king already has meat to eat every day.
"If you become our partner, I won't tell anyone that you were defeated in one move. And who knows, I might even find you a beautiful spouse in the future, how about that?"
