Chapter 12 The Eagle's Little Thoughts
Jiang Xi: "?"
Don't you just want to stir up trouble?
Yves: "It's wonderful. The Jehol Valley hasn't been this lively in a long time."
Two small green snakes crawled up from his tail and stretched their heads toward Jiang Xi in a childish voice.
"The female master is fragrant."
"The female master is fragrant."
Yves was exasperated. He grabbed the two little ones and tossed them into the woods with a "whoosh."
Jiang Xi opened her mouth, about to say something, but then swallowed it back.
Yves looked apologetic. "I'm sorry, they're still young. Even if they were to duel, it would take another ten years or so."
Jiang Xi: "..."
"It's nothing," she said curtly.
I thought to myself, there's no need to link everything to duels.
This was the first time Jiang Xi had witnessed the fighting power of the beastmen.
Lu Liufeng's superpower is wind, while Nakan's superpower is fire.
When wind meets fire, it can make the fire grow bigger, or it can blow the fire in another direction.
Furthermore, eagles are the natural enemies of snakes, so if Lu Liufeng wanted to, he could grab Nakan and lift him into the sky, then slam him down.
Although it was a duel, it was not a fight to the death.
Even so, as the giant eagle swooped down time and again, its claws tearing through the red python's scales, blood could be seen spurting from the snake's body.
Jiang Xi couldn't help but feel a lingering fear.
How dare the females of this world whip these beastmen?
Even the weakest orc's resistance can kill a female.
But it is precisely this seemingly unreasonable balance that has firmly bound the females and the beastmen together.
There are many beasts, but few females.
Without the comfort of females, the beastmen will eventually perish due to their powerful supernatural abilities, let alone reproduce.
The seemingly weak females are actually the ones in control of the beastmen.
When the battle ended, the red python lay on the sand and stones, its scales torn and its flesh ripped open.
The giant eagle wasn't in much better shape; many of its beautiful feathers were singed.
Those amber-colored eagle eyes looked at Jiang Xi.
"My lady, let's go back."
Jiang Xi was a little angry and disliked his behavior of resorting to violence at the drop of a hat.
She didn't reply to him immediately, but walked to the red python and reached out her hand.
A shimmering green light appeared in her palm, and the wounds on the red python's body gradually healed.
Jiang Xi did not fully cure the bleeding; she only stopped it slightly.
She also wanted to teach Nakan a lesson for being so reckless, knowing that a duel was coming.
In Jiang Xi's memory, no one had ever called her Xi Xi, so she didn't know the meaning of intimate names.
But she didn't know, how could Nakan not know?
That's just asking for a beating!
Seeing that she was willing to treat him, Nakan raised his golden snake eyes and looked at her intently.
"Xi Xi..."
As soon as he uttered those two words, Jiang Xi stopped what she was doing.
"Okay, I'm leaving now."
After saying that, she stood up and walked to Lu Liufeng's side.
Lu Liufeng remained in the form of a giant eagle. He saw the female master treating Nakan and his amber eagle eyes showed some disappointment, but when the female master came over to treat him, his eyes lit up again.
Jiang Xi gave a soft hum.
"You're not allowed to randomly challenge people to duels anymore. You should use your powers to curse beasts, not your companions."
Lu Liufeng's amber-colored eagle eyes, which had just lit up, dimmed again, and his voice trembled slightly.
"Mistress, do you like Nakan?"
If the female owner likes it...
"I don't like it," Jiang Xi said bluntly.
"I've only known him for a day, how could I possibly like him?"
Lu Liufeng was stunned.
But……
Aren't most of the female master's beast husbands married after only one meeting?
He didn't quite understand what the female master meant by that.
But he also felt that he liked the changes in the female master.
Nakan, his heart filled with coldness, sank down.
He thought that her helping him with his treatment meant she was willing to accept him.
But to my surprise, she had no such idea at all.
Jiang Xi healed two orcs in a row, and she also treated herself while taking a bath. Her supernatural power was instantly depleted, and she staggered from exhaustion.
Lu Liufeng wrapped her with his wings and asked her a question.
"The female master should rest for a while."
Jiang Xi shook her head, wanting only to sleep.
"Let's go back. We won't go to the hot spring anymore. I already bathed in the hot spring in the valley."
The ingredients were packed in large and small bags, all in animal skin bags.
Even though they consumed a lot at noon, there was still too much food to fit in the container, so they had to deal with the rest themselves.
Anyway, she had already taught them how to do it at noon.
Lu Liufeng hunted about 200 jin of wild boar, and then picked about 100 jin of other ingredients from the valley, which brought the total to about 300 jin.
Jiang Xi couldn't help but worry.
"So many, can you transport them all back?"
"How about we have Mu Ling and Yi Yuexi come over when we get back?"
These things will be taken back and everyone will eat them. Even if we don't get along in private, we should still do our part in times like this.
Lu Liufeng shook his enormous eagle head.
"Liu Feng is fine."
Well, Jiang Xi had no choice but to believe him.
After all, he was an orc with superpowers.
Even in the apocalypse, humans with superpowers can withstand more weight as their superpower level increases.
Lu Liufeng crouched down, allowing the female master to come up to him.
Jiang Xi climbed up, but before she could even sit down properly, Nakan, who had restored the orcs, suddenly spoke.
"I...I...I'll go to the Lion's Roar Tribe when spring comes!"
Jiang Xi was puzzled for two seconds before she remembered that he was from the Python Tribe.
Even Jiang Xi could sense from his posture that he was coming for her.
She felt a little embarrassed.
She wasn't unfamiliar with confessions of love, but she had never experienced one in such a barbaric environment.
If this happened in an apocalypse, people would definitely think this person is too casual.
But this is the world of orcs, so it seems like a perfectly normal thing.
For a moment, Jiang Xi didn't know how to start the conversation.
She carefully considered her words, thinking about how to politely and respectfully refuse him.
Before she could even think it through, the giant eagle beneath her flapped its wings, carrying her, along with a wild boar weighing over 300 pounds and the ingredients, and soared into the sky.
Jiang Xi quickly grabbed the feather beneath her, and by the time she regained her balance, she had already flown high into the sky. The Nakan in the valley below had become a small red dot.
She muttered something.
"Lu Liufeng, I haven't finished speaking yet."
She thought that Lu Liufeng wouldn't hear her muttering because of the wind at high altitude.
But Lu Liufeng not only heard her, he also answered her.
"I'm sorry, I thought the female master had finished speaking."
"Also... it's getting late, so..."
He didn't finish his sentence because Jiang Xi had already forgiven him.
"It's alright, it's alright if we didn't finish talking. It's not an important matter."
Lu Liufeng's amber eagle eyes flashed.
What if he says he did it on purpose?
He was also afraid, afraid that the female master would really agree to Nakan's request.
Especially at this time, when the female master is determined to dissolve their marriage contract.
Lu Liufeng felt that he had become bad.
But for the sake of his mistress, he was willing to be a little naughty.
