Cang Jue had probably gone hunting; Guo Xiaoxiao had eaten all the fruit but couldn't stave off her hunger.
It was as if they hadn't eaten anything at all. After waiting a long time, Cang Jue finally returned with the little snakes; he hadn't gone far and was nearby.
Knowing that Guo Xiaoxiao is usually overworked and has a big appetite, she brought back a little cowboy this time.
The snakes insisted on going with him, but he refused to stay and keep Guo Xiaoxiao and the others company.
"Xiaoxiao, are you hungry? It'll be ready in a bit, just wait a moment."
Cang Jue quickly dealt with the little cowboy and started roasting him outside the tree hole.
The little snakes cheered and waited, preferring raw meat to cooked food, but they didn't mind if Cang Jue fed them cooked food.
Why did they go with Cang Jue? Cang Jue always brought back prey that only considered Guo Xiaoxiao, rarely feeding the snake cubs. They were almost never full, and had to go out for a late-night snack.
With them following and guiding the way, they can show Cang Jue how big of a prey to hunt.
The cowboy ate everything, and Guo Xiaoxiao was so full she felt stuffed.
For the next few days, Cang Jue kept Guo Xiaoxiao having sex with him non-stop, not letting her rest even for a moment.
I said I didn't want it anymore, but then a little while later he pressed himself against me again.
In the beast world, beastmen mate repeatedly for several days after their heat cycle to increase their chances of conceiving.
Not wanting to waste these precious few days, Cang Jue used all his persuasive skills to win Guo Xiaoxiao over.
She made a scene, cried and screamed, but couldn't withstand Cang Jue's onslaught. She realized that Cang Jue was desperately trying to get her to give birth to a litter of children for him.
Guo Xiaoxiao wasn't against having children; she had come to terms with it. She figured that once they were born, they would be as docile as little snakes and wouldn't cause much trouble.
It's okay, just give birth, but there's no need to cause trouble all day and night.
They'd been gone for quite some time, and many days had passed. Cang Jue had been taking her on roundabout routes, not taking her home.
Every time I ask him, he says it'll be soon, or he's lost, or he says he can't fly because of the smell of orcs chasing him.
Seeing that their trip had gone from a few days to over a month without them returning, not only were the guys in Beast City getting impatient, but Guo Xiaoxiao was also getting anxious.
Cang Jue really isn't worried about how much those guys will treat him when he goes back, but Guo Xiaoxiao is terrified.
"Xiaoxiao, let's go out and play again next time. It'll be so nice if it's just the two of us."
Guo Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes.
"Hurry up and think of how to explain this when we get back. Don't be so happy, Arthur, Carlos... I'm so angry I can't face them."
Cang Jue: "Do you even consider using your brain with them?"
After explaining things to Arthur, Guo Xiaoxiao didn't speak to any of them again. Too much time had dragged on, and she didn't have the courage to talk to them and face their barrage of criticism.
"How could I dare? We agreed on a few days, but it's been over a month! They'd think I'm neglecting them."
Cang Jue shrugged. "We just came out to have some fun. It's alright that it took a little longer than expected."
"Don't worry, Xiaoxiao. If they dare to get angry with you, I'll just take you with me and fly away, never to be found again. That'll infuriate them!"
"I will protect you. I'm a five-star ring inheritor beastman now, don't be afraid."
Heh, you're oversimplifying the difference. He might just swear a couple of times and endure the anger, but Cang Jue would probably get a beating. Knowing their tempers, they wouldn't let him off the hook.
You should worry about yourself.
Guo Xiaoxiao thought about it for a moment, looking sullen, and then said...
"Here's what we'll do: we'll give each other a statement, and if they ask why it took you so long to get back..."
"Just say you were captured by another tribe, went through countless hardships, and finally escaped. During your fight with the orcs, you broke through to the fifth-star ring."
"Also, remember to say that we originally wanted to go back on the third day, but we were delayed because we got caught. We didn't mean to stay away. Be more polite. Don't think that just because you've reached the five-star ring level, you can fight. How can one punch beat so many hands?"
"In this matter, they won't fight you one by one; they'll swarm you. Just think about what happened to Carlos last time."
After listening to Guo Xiaoxiao's words, Cang Jue thought about them carefully and realized they made sense. If they all attacked him, he wouldn't be able to withstand it, and it would be too humiliating to end up running away.
Xiaoxiao was only doing it for his own good. It seems his battles these past few days have been successful; he won't be the overlooked orc anymore. Let Miksen and Randy take the overlooked spot.
"Okay, that's a good idea."
"Let's go back now. I'll feel relieved if we get back sooner, so I won't be so worried. No, I need to take a shower first to wash away your scent. Your nose is so sensitive; you could smell it!"
"From now on, you can't touch me at all. If they find out we're mating every day, they'll get jealous again."
As Guo Xiaoxiao put on the animal skin, she gave him instructions, telling him not to take advantage of her vulnerability.
Okay~
Cang Jue hugged Guo Xiaoxiao tightly, but Guo Xiaoxiao broke free from his embrace and moved her bottom a little further away.
"You promised you wouldn't touch me, so stop touching me."
She surrendered the moment he pounced on her.
Cang Jue Wu Er
"I'm not mating with you, can't I even hug you?"
Guo Xiaoxiao: "No way, things are going to change if we keep hugging. Don't think I don't know what you're up to; I know you too well."
He's always been a womanizer, something Guo Xiaoxiao had seen through long ago.
Cang Jue sighed, "Sigh, my Xiaoxiao is getting smarter and smarter. I didn't do anything, I just wanted to hold you. You've really wronged me this time. You need to give me some trust."
Cang Jue's reputation was shattered to pieces in Guo Xiaoxiao's eyes. Every time, he would half-coax and half-deceive her into getting under him, without exception.
"No, I can't trust you. Give up. We'll sleep separately. You'll sleep on the other side, and I'll sleep with the little snake."
Cang Jue: "Xiao Xiao is too cruel. Should partners sleep together? How can she exclude me?"
Guo Xiaoxiao was exasperated: "You should really reflect on your behavior. Okay, that's all for now, it's getting dark. All you do all day is cause trouble and not do anything productive."
Orcs are just orcs; their mating time is so long. Last night, after breakfast, they continued mating from daytime until afternoon.
After mating, time is needed to eat meat. If she doesn't eat, Guo Xiaoxiao is so hungry she feels like she's about to vomit bile. She needs to replenish her energy by eating meat to alleviate the hunger.
As dusk approached, another day was about to end. I had to wake Cang Jue and fly away, even though he had a fear of heights. We had to work overtime to get back safely.
Having no other choice, Cang Jue took the snake cub and Guo Xiaoxiao back to Beast City. He had taken Guo Xiaoxiao quite far, and the return trip would indeed take this long.
…
Finally, after a month and a half, I returned to Beast City.
Standing outside the gates of Beast City, Guo Xiaoxiao pulled Cang Jue along, too afraid to go in. Good heavens! They could feel a cloud of black mist swirling above the city.
