It was as if countless resentments had accumulated, which was of course Guo Xiaoxiao's illusion, but in Cang Jue's eyes there was no difference.
"Xiaoxiao, we've arrived! Let's go back to the castle first."
Guo Xiaoxiao replied nervously, "Okay, sure."
They took Professor Guo and flew all the way back to the castle. Now there's no one inside; everyone's gone to handle their own affairs, and Guo Xiaoxiao isn't in the castle either.
What's the point of staying in the castle? It's better to stay in your own tribe.
Cang Jue: "You should go and get busy. Xiao Xiao, if you're tired, take a nap. You've been away for too long. I'll go back to the tribe to check on A Luo."
Guo Xiaoxiao grabbed his arm, preventing him from leaving.
"Wait, don't go! Don't go today. Just stay with me in the castle. What if they come back? I can't face them alone."
Seeing Guo Xiaoxiao's timid and hesitant appearance, Cang Jue patted her hair.
"Don't worry, they won't dare do anything. I won't leave; I'll stay with you, okay?"
Guo Xiaoxiao nodded
"Are you tired? Take a nap."
Cang Jue led Guo Xiaoxiao to the mattress, lay down, and pulled her into his arms. Guo Xiaoxiao snuggled comfortably against him, closed her eyes, and said...
"You should get some sleep too, you'll be busy when you wake up."
Cang Jue lowered his head and kissed Xiao Xiao's forehead: "Don't think about it anymore."
The two snakes fell asleep in each other's arms, while the little snakes returned to their nest on their own. They were exhausted from their long journey and needed a rest.
…
Back in Beast City, the first person to notice Guo Xiaoxiao was Randy, whose keen nose immediately caught her unique scent, and his heart raced instantly.
This unfamiliar stimulation made Randy clench his fists and take a few deep breaths before slowly calming down.
He couldn't rush, he couldn't panic. He had to remain calm, calmly greet her, and then teach Cang Jue a lesson.
Randy entered the room while Guo Xiaoxiao was asleep. His face was cold, but he couldn't hide the intense love in his eyes, which softened slightly only when he looked at Guo Xiaoxiao.
But when he saw Cang Jue sleeping beside him, a surge of urge to explode welled up within him. If looks could kill, he would have been torn to pieces tens of thousands of times over.
Hearing a voice, Guo Xiaoxiao rubbed her eyes and asked, "Huh? Who is it?"
It's me.
When Guo Xiaoxiao saw Randy, she jumped out of bed.
"Ah, Randy"
Then he shook Cang Jue awake.
"Wake up, someone's here!"
Randy looked at Guo Xiaoxiao; her eyes were still sleepy, and her eyebrows were curved, as if inviting him to come closer.
After so long, his patience had long since worn off. Now, all he wanted was to possess her. Even after more than a month apart, she remained as alluring and captivating as ever.
He reached out and gently stroked her black hair; it was so smooth and delicate, he couldn't help but caress it with his palm, reluctant to let go.
Cang Jue was exhausted from flying with Guo Xiaoxiao and the little snakes, and didn't notice Randy entering. When he opened his eyes, he saw Randy's infatuated expression.
He frowned in annoyance: "Hey, I'm still here."
Randy released his grip, his expression cold, and asked in an icy tone, "Where exactly did you take her? Carlos went out to look for her but couldn't find her, and she dared to come back?"
Guo Xiaoxiao was taken aback, then realized what she meant: "Randy, calm down. Let me explain this to you slowly."
"We only planned to be away for a few days, but we encountered a tribe that wanted to capture me and take me back. After many hardships, Cang Jue led me to escape. We didn't necessarily intend to stay away for so long."
Cang Jue sneered, suddenly realizing the point of lying. He was a five-star inherited beastman, Randy; could he possibly defeat him? He'd like to see if he had the ability.
"Really? Then why didn't you contact us and ask us to bring people to rescue you? One person can't handle an entire tribe, can they?"
After not seeing Randy for over a month, he became more articulate and his mind was clearer. Guo Xiaoxiao forgot about that loophole and changed her story.
"Because the situation is so chaotic, I didn't want you to worry. Look at me, I'm perfectly fine, aren't I?"
At this point, Cang Jue proudly showed Randy the star ring on his arm.
"I'm a five-star ring like you, and a descendant of the beastmen."
Randy was quite surprised to see Cang Jue break through. Although he was unwilling, he couldn't refute it. The orc with the power of inheritance was a level higher than him, but that wasn't the point.
"You took Xiaoxiao out and monopolized her affections; when you come back, you'll have to pay the price."
Guo Xiaoxiao: "We didn't have any to ourselves. We weren't playing outside. Well, didn't we just say we were captured by other tribes and have been running for our lives. How could we be in the mood to play?"
"We two rarely mate outside, Randy is overthinking it. I've been thinking about you two the whole time, I have no interest in being all lovey-dovey with them."
Cang Jue didn't like hearing this. It was too conciliatory. At least he was bringing someone back. If it were Carlos, he might not have brought anyone back at all.
Besides, they're partners, so what's wrong with mating? Intimacy is normal. They're stuck in the Beast City all day; can't they go out for some fresh air?
"Xiaoxiao, don't explain to him. Everything will be clear once our two babies are born. It's just a trip out for fun, don't make a fuss."
Randy's expression was unfriendly.
"Would you be willing to take her out for two months?"
Cang Jue was speechless. Well, he really couldn't answer this question. He couldn't very well say he disagreed, since he had already done so himself.
"Since we're already back, let's not talk about it anymore."
Seeing Randy's frustrated expression, Guo Xiaoxiao
"Randy, when the three of them come back, try to stop them from getting too excited. Just pretend I'm out having fun and can't come back, it's not Cang Jue."
Randy glared at Guo Xiaoxiao; his heart was breaking. Xiaoxiao was still defending him. He couldn't bring himself to stand up to her. He'd better wait for the other three to arrive.
Carlos went out but couldn't find him, so Xiao Xiao stayed in a tribe outside the city. The tribe he founded was called the Hague Tribe, not far from Beast City.
Seeing his insistence, Arthur didn't press the matter further. He laid down three rules with him: the stray beasts must not be allowed to cause trouble around the Beast City, and they must not abduct females from the surrounding tribes for their amusement.
Carlos established a tribe on the ancient continent, so he would certainly abide by the continent's rules.
I've already told the beastmen that they need to change their old bad habits. They must not have conflicts or steal females; they must all follow the rules.
The ancient continent was rich in resources, ensuring a comfortable life. As the tribe grew stronger, it attracted females, and the Hague tribe would eventually reproduce like any other tribe.
Mickson and Arthur received the news that Guo Xiaoxiao had returned, and Carlos rushed to the castle.
The person I've been longing for has finally returned. I can't wait to hold her as we fall asleep, to press her beneath me and cherish her fiercely.
When the group arrived, they saw three people sitting around a table, chatting without any apparent problem. Except for Randy, who had a dark expression, the other two were smiling.
The sight of Cang Jue and Guo Xiaoxiao sitting together was utterly jarring.
The three who had just arrived were all furious; it was already a great deal of restraint for them to calmly walk beside them.
