Chapter 17 won't delay your hunting trip.



Xiao Mingyan was surprised; the female master actually possessed supernatural abilities?

I've never heard of any female possessing superpowers, and I've never heard of ice-based superpowers being able to heal wounds.

When I came back today, I heard that she had actually taken the initiative to participate in the competition.

They also defeated Pu Yueling, the daughter of the high priest who had a winning streak, and won a spot in the Beast Academy.

Now, she is demonstrating this peculiar combination of superpowers.

It seems... Xiao Mingyan looked at Ling Yunxi, who was treating him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a complex emotion flashed deep in his eyes.

She is not to be underestimated.

...

A moment later, Ling Yunxi was covered in sweat.

"Are you feeling any better now?" she asked, looking up as she spoke.

I caught a glimpse of the change in his eyes when I looked up.

Xiao Mingyan lowered his eyes to look at Ling Yunxi, but lowered his head again the moment his gaze met hers.

"It...it doesn't hurt anymore, thank you..."

He paused for a moment, then hesitated before asking, "Mistress, why did you help me today?"

Ling Yunxi wanted to say something polite, but looking into his seemingly obedient and docile face, she saw a depth in his eyes that was hard to fathom.

To survive alone in this dangerous beast world, especially in a nomadic region teeming with ferocious beasts, and to grow up like this...

She knew he was definitely not as harmless as he appeared.

If he discovers that I am no longer the original owner, I don't know what my fate will be.

She mimicked the original owner's tone, coldly saying, "If you're not in good health, how can you continue hunting for me?"

As Xiao Mingyan listened to Ling Yunxi's words, the warmth that had just risen in his heart dissipated a little, and he lowered his eyelids to hide the disappointment in his eyes.

He felt a little uneasy, but feigned compliance and replied, "Mmm..."

“I will try my best to improve my health.” He twitched his ear slightly, his eyes darkened, and his voice deepened. “It won’t interfere with your hunting.”

Ling Yunxi frowned slightly upon hearing this, but quickly regained her composure.

As her injuries gradually healed, she stood up abruptly, then suddenly felt dizzy and staggered back two steps.

Seeing her sway, Xiao Mingyan quickly stepped forward to support her, his words full of concern, "Mistress, what's wrong?"

Are you feeling unwell?

After regaining her composure, Ling Yunxi blinked quickly. Once her vision was clear again, she reached out to stop him, saying, "I'm fine, just let me go."

Then they walked towards the inside of the house.

Xiao Mingyan pursed his lips, not letting go of her hand. "Let me help you inside."

"No need, I'm fine now," Ling Yunxi said, waving her hand, and then walked into her room.

"Can……"

Looking at her indifferent expression, Xiao Mingyan felt a strange emotion welling up inside him and silently withdrew his hand.

"Then be careful."

He stopped talking and silently followed behind her, then hesitated for a moment at the door after she went inside.

"My lady, I'll be guarding the door. Just call me if you need anything."

Ling Yunxi could no longer hear the sounds outside. The moment she entered the room and saw the bed, she climbed up and fell asleep immediately.

The next morning.

After getting up, Ling Yunxi felt that her body had almost fully recovered.

She never expected her supernatural abilities.

She couldn't remember how she fell asleep last night, but the room felt somewhat unfamiliar.

It doesn't look like her own.

It's normal that she's still unfamiliar with her surroundings since she's only been here for a few days.

Today she had to report to the Beast Academy, so Ling Yunxi got up without thinking about anything else.

Upon seeing Ling Yunxi emerge, Xiao Mingyan instinctively straightened his back and perked up his ears.

"morning……"

His gaze was somewhat unfocused, avoiding his eyes on her. "Did you sleep well last night?"

"Oh," he said, remembering something. Before Ling Yunxi could answer, he suddenly rushed to the kitchen to bring out a pot of meat soup, and then went back to get a set of bowls and chopsticks.

After arranging the bowls and chopsticks neatly, she bent slightly and gestured for him to eat, saying, "Mistress, please have your meal."

Ling Yunxi went over and sat down.

After Xiao Mingyan saw her sit down, he walked out as usual, trying his best to avoid being in the same room with her as she requested.

"What's wrong with you?" Ling Yunxi had wanted to ask him earlier, but seeing his listless appearance, she asked curiously.

Xiao Mingyan stopped in his tracks, instinctively clenching his fists, his tail swaying gently at his side.

"N-nothing...it's nothing." His voice trailed off, tinged with a hint of uncertainty. "Is it that the food isn't to your liking?"

“Not this one,” Ling Yunxi said.

Seeing that she hadn't touched her chopsticks, Xiao Mingyan assumed she was still angry about not contacting her earlier. After a moment of silence, he mustered up the courage to look up at her.

"Then... what do you want to ask?" he asked nervously, his ears twitching.

Based on past experience, she would have already started hitting and verbally abusing him.

"Didn't you sleep well last night? Or did your wound flare up again?" Ling Yunxi said, picking up her chopsticks, only to find that there was only one set of bowl and chopsticks.

Xiao Mingyan was surprised that she would care about him. After a slight pause, he subconsciously shook his head and denied it, saying, "I'm fine."

Fearing she wouldn't believe him, he added, "Maybe... I've been a little tired lately."

"Oh..." Ling Yunxi replied, "Why is there only one set of bowl and chopsticks?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she remembered that the original owner always insisted that only she could sit at the table when she ate.

He must never appear while she is eating; he must either stay in the kitchen, go back to his own room, or preferably go out.

Xiao Mingyan paused slightly, a barely perceptible hint of disappointment flashing in his eyes, "I..."

She casually looked away, her voice slightly hoarse, "I'll eat later."

Ling Yunxi sighed for her past self and looked at him, saying, "From now on, let's eat together."

"No need to trouble yourself..."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Ling Yunxi get up and go to the kitchen.

Seeing her back, he felt a little dazed; she would never have done these things for him before.

Seeing her return with a set of chopsticks and a bowl, he said with a barely perceptible tenderness, "I'll wait until you finish eating before I eat."

Ling Yunxi handed him the bowl and chopsticks.

Xiao Mingyan paused, a strange feeling welling up inside him. After hesitating for a few seconds, he sat down opposite her. "Thank you..."

Then, he cautiously picked up the food and put it in his mouth.

Seeing his expression, Ling Yunxi picked up some meat with her chopsticks and put it in his bowl, saying, "Eat more."

Xiao Mingyan looked at the meat in the bowl, flattered, and then looked up at her, "This..."

When he met her gaze, he hurriedly lowered his head, his throat tightening, unsure of what to say.

"Eat more, I don't need that much right now," Ling Yunxi said.

Xiao Mingyan silently put the meat into his mouth; it tasted better than ever before. "Mmm..."
