Chapter 118 The Female Master Wants My Protective Scales?
"Nakan!"
Jiang Xi grabbed Hong Lin and ran two steps outside.
But Nakan's figure had already disappeared into the dark forest, vanishing completely.
Jiang Xi wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but as Nakan swam outwards, she noticed some mottled marks under his grass skirt.
It's like... the scales have fallen off?
Jiang Xi walked towards Yves inside the cave and handed him the red scales.
“Yves, could you please return this scale to Nakan for me?”
Yves didn't take it, and instead put his hands behind his back, as if he was embarrassed.
"Female Envoy, the protective scales of the snake clan, once given away, will never be taken back."
If you are rejected, it's like being jilted by the female.
Snake-type beastmen are already unpopular with females, so if they are jilted, they will definitely be criticized by both beastmen and females.
Of course, thanks to the food in the Rehe Valley, the snake-beastmen are now doing well.
However, market conditions are one thing, market conditions are another.
A powerful serpent beastman like Nakan wouldn't just marry any female.
Now that the only female envoy trapped in the cursed land is here, she will probably never look at any other female again in her lifetime.
At this moment, Duan Si's voice came from the side indifferently.
"Give me."
Jiang Xi turned her head and found that Duan Si had swum to her side at some point.
Seeing that he was willing to help, she quickly handed over the red scales in her hand.
"Then I'll have to trouble you..."
Before she could finish speaking, Jiang Xi's dark eyes widened suddenly, and she quickly snatched Hong Lin back from Duan Si's grasp.
I obtained the red scale, which was covered with a flowing black substance.
"Mistress, be careful!"
Lu Liufeng's pupils contracted, and he quickly unleashed a gust of wind, pushing the scales out of the female master's palm.
With a few "clinks," the red scales fell to the ground, and the black substance that had been on them slowly disappeared.
Lu Liufeng grasped the female protagonist's hand and pulled it close to his face to examine it.
Seeing that his palm hadn't been devoured by Duan Si's supernatural power, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He raised his eyes, his brows furrowed, and looked at Duan Si standing to the side before speaking.
"Duan Si, the female master is still nearby, be careful!"
Although, due to the marriage contract, the female master is to some extent unaffected by the beast husbands' supernatural abilities.
However, it is only to a certain extent, not complete immunity.
Duan Si's superpower is so domineering that it could easily hurt the female master.
Duan Si lowered his scarlet snake eyes and landed on the female master's fair palm. That small, slender, white hand was enveloped in the center by Lu Liufeng's large, long, and slender hand, which inexplicably made him feel a little irritated.
But he nodded nonetheless.
"knew."
As he spoke, his gaze shifted to the red scale that had fallen to the ground. With a flick of his black tail, he reached for it and began to destroy it again.
When Jiang Xi saw his gaze shift, she immediately pulled her hand away from Lu Liufeng's and ran over to pick up the red scales from the ground.
The red scales are protective scales, the hardest scales on the hearts of snake-kin beastmen. They are not easily devoured and still glow red, making them very beautiful.
Jiang Xi held the red scales, examining them over and over, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming there were no problems.
Then, she looked at Duan Si and said seriously.
"Duan Si! You can't break other people's things!"
Perhaps because she had gotten along quite well with Duan Si today, Jiang Xi spoke directly and pointed out his problems.
Duan Si looked at Hong Lin, puzzled.
"Didn't the female master dislike it?"
If you don't like it, just destroy it, right?
There aren't so many "can" or "can't" options.
Jiang Xi: "Just because you don't like it doesn't mean you can destroy it! Besides, these protective scales are very important to Nakan. You're a snake, don't you know that?"
Duan Si stared at her with his scarlet snake eyes, "You want my protective scales?"
"Huh?" Jiang Xi's dark eyes widened.
What is all this nonsense?!
She quickly explained.
"No! I didn't want your protective scales!"
Duan Si: "Then you want Nakan's protective scales?"
Jiang Xi went crazy.
"I don't want Nakan's protective scales either!"
She finally understood that Duan Si's understanding of the world was even worse than hers!
In terms of interpersonal relationships, it's a complete mess!
"The world is not black and white!"
Jiang Xi wanted him to understand that things shouldn't be taken to extremes.
But then she heard Duan Si say something.
"And it's colorful."
As he said this, his gaze lingered for a moment on Yves's blue snake tail.
Yves got goosebumps instantly.
He planned to make an excuse to leave once the topic was over; he felt he would be ripped out if he stayed any longer.
When Jiang Xi heard Duan Si's "colorful," she deflated like a punctured balloon.
She leaned against Lu Liufeng, desperately seeking a bit of the tenderness and consideration that the young patriarch of the Eagle Clan, a powerful beast race, had nurtured!
Lu Liufeng put his arm around the female master's waist, and felt a deep sense of powerlessness towards Duan Si.
In the past, Duan Si was a loner and never communicated with them.
Therefore, Lu Liufeng never expected that Duan Si would have such a personality!
If someone with that kind of temperament stays and doesn't leave, this family will probably have minor fights every day and major fights every three days.
Lu Liufeng had a bit of a headache.
At that moment, Mu Ling's voice suddenly roared in from outside.
"Female Mistress!! Why didn't you tell me you were coming to Duan Si's place?! I've been looking for you everywhere!!"
Lu Liufeng's head throbbed even more.
When Yves saw Mu Ling return, he immediately saw an opportunity to slip away and quickly spoke up.
"Female Envoy, I'm leaving now. If the two little ones can't find me, they'll start running around everywhere. See you tomorrow!"
Jiang Xi raised her hand weakly.
"See you tomorrow."
When Yves swam out, he ran into Mu Ling.
Mu Ling had never seen Yves before. When he suddenly saw such a handsome snake-beastman come out, his wolf eyes narrowed instantly, and his expression became hostile.
Yves quickly stepped over and greeted him casually.
“Mu Ling, I am Yves from the Python Tribe. The female mistress is particularly fond of my two cubs, so I occasionally bring them to see the female mistress.”
Little brat?
So you have a female master now?
Just as Mu Ling was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she became suspicious again when she saw that Yves was naked and there were no cubs on him.
"Where's the little brat?"
Yves: "...slept."
Yves has figured out the jealous nature of these female beastmen.
Fortunately, the Empress Dowager's family still has Lu Liufeng, who can take charge of the overall situation.
Otherwise, Yves dared not imagine how chaotic things would become.
After all, his household was constantly in turmoil because his husbands were vying for his affections.
He came to the Jehol Valley and actually found some peace and quiet.
Mu Ling wanted to ask more questions, but at that moment, the female master's voice came from inside the cave.
"Mu Ling?"
He quickly called out, "Coming!"
The mistress rarely called to him, and his attention was instantly drawn away from Yves.
But before parting, he patted Yves on the shoulder and chuckled.
"Remember to bring the little one tomorrow, I like the little one too."
Yves sensed the knife hidden in his smile.
He sighed inwardly, thinking that being a female master was no easy task compared to being a beastman like them.
"Don't worry, the little cub will swim over to find the female servant as soon as he wakes up tomorrow."
