"Irina, please don't blame me, that's not what I meant. I'm very grateful to you for saving Diva, and I'll send you the prey."
Irina's expression was normal.
"I didn't take it to heart, but you guys really need to stop arguing. Everyone's just come back from a big battle and wants to rest. All this noise is making it hard for others to sleep."
Miksen didn't answer. The conflict was almost resolved by Irina. A female who was both eager to learn and capable of solving problems was truly admirable.
But Miksen's feelings weren't romantic; he simply liked Irina's personality—she was beautiful yet humble, and treated both males and females with gentleness.
Afterwards, Mickson, Arthur, and the others went to the lake to take a bath before returning to their room to sleep.
Taking advantage of Guo Xiaoxiao's inattention, the little snakes sneaked out into the forest to hunt and play. They stayed in the cave, but instead of sitting with Guo Xiaoxiao, they slept and rested in the room.

Guo Xiaoxiao lay in Carlos's arms, but Arthur, standing behind her, was displeased and pulled Guo Xiaoxiao into his own arms, fearing that this would cause them to become jealous.

Ling Feng, wanting to get some more gourd water, risked everything and sneaked into the cave, only to be caught red-handed by Arsen. This time, Arsen didn't let him go, breaking his legs and throwing him out.
He even took him to a desolate desert; Arthur wanted Ling Feng to end things this way.
They tried every possible way to defeat him, harassing him again and again. He was simply no match for them; since they couldn't accept reality, Arthur wouldn't give them a chance.
Like a fly that kept bothering his life, always running away so fast, he finally caught it. This time, he definitely couldn't let it go.
…
January passed peacefully, and no one bothered them anymore.
Every day, a male would stay in Guo Xiaoxiao's room to keep her company. Randy stayed the most often, and several times he told Abil that he didn't want to be the chieftain and entrusted all matters to Abil.
He also told Guo Xiaoxiao his thoughts, but Guo Xiaoxiao didn't care and told Randy to choose the life he wanted.
