There's another lake in the distance. There's also a Crescent Lake in the desert of Dunhuang. Although it's not as beautiful as that one, it's still quite a sight.
Guo Xiaoxiao stood on the back of this giant statue. Randy didn't find the scenery very appealing; he found it dull and lacked any aesthetic sense.
But seeing Guo Xiaoxiao's joyful face, he was satisfied. At least he had salvaged his image in her eyes, preventing her from remembering him as a partner who was quite rude and lacked manners.
Randy also wanted to take this opportunity to get closer to Guo Xiaoxiao; he had been so disobedient those two days, hitting her and causing her trouble.
It's the male's fault to let a female suffer so much. Randy has become that sensitive boy again, one who doesn't say it but thinks a lot.
"Xiaoxiao, be careful. If you can't stand, lean on me. I'll support you."
The area behind the statue is flat, without any uneven stones, so Guo Xiaoxiao can stand steadily and even walk around on it.
"No, I'm standing firm, don't worry about me."
Randy relaxed a bit when he saw Guo Xiaoxiao's bright smile.
Guo Xiaoxiao imagined that if she had a red dress, she could run around in the desert and take some artistic photos.
But this is the world of beasts; there are no cameras, no red cloth, only animal skins.
Oh, and when we get back, I'll ask Carlos to give him two robes. Those robes are very soft and breathable, much better than animal hides.
Guo Xiaoxiao opened her arms, feeling the desert breeze. Under the sunlight, the golden and silver light shimmered with a mesmerizing hue.
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, but when she opened them, she saw a pair of bright black pupils staring at her.
"Randy, stop staring at me. Don't you think this place is beautiful? You won't see a desert like this even twice in modern times."
Guo Xiaoxiao forgot that Randy was from the Beast World and treated him as a modern person when communicating with him.
This touched on Randy's area of knowledge, and he looked blank, not asking any further questions.
"I'd completely forgotten you were an orc from the Beast World. Sorry, my mistake."
Guo Xiaoxiao laughed while covering his mouth. His mouth was open so wide that sand got into it, making it extremely uncomfortable.
"I don't understand what you're saying, but I'm happy to see you so happy."
Randy spoke from the bottom of his heart. Now that he had a mate, his duty as a male was to make her happy forever. He would protect Guo Xiaoxiao even more carefully in the future, ensuring she was never harmed.
Small black dots appeared on the desert hills not far away. Randy became alert and pulled Guo Xiaoxiao into his arms. They must be migrating orcs.
The leading orc also spotted Randy and Guo Xiaoxiao. They had both transformed into beast forms, a hybrid of various races, including lions and tigers.
Upon seeing Guo Xiaoxiao and Randy, he ran towards them.
Are they here to cause trouble? They're standing so high, they'd be easily spotted.
Guo Xiaoxiao didn't hide behind Randy; instead, she took out a small piece of animal skin to cover her face, hoping to avoid being seen by his beauty and coveting her.
They are not vicious stray beasts, and they will not attack on their own initiative; this is not anyone's territory.
"I will protect you well, don't be afraid."
Guo Xiaoxiao had seen many storms and waves; how could she be afraid? It was just a minor incident.
"Let's stay put for now. It's too late to run. Maybe they just happened to be passing by and will just leave."
Following his orcish instincts, Randy decided to be cautious. He picked up Guo Xiaoxiao, carried her on his back, and quickly crouched down below the statue.
The crowd drew closer and closer, a vast and imposing group that stirred up a sandstorm as they ran over. The leaders transformed into human form and came to their side.
Looking Randy up from head to toe, one could tell at a glance that he was a strong man. Orcs have very keen intuition; the aura of the strong and the weak are completely different.
"You're a male with a female in this desert, aren't you afraid of getting into trouble? Which tribe are you from? Are you migrating orcs?"
This orc was good-looking, quite handsome, with a large, scabbed wound on his chest, forming a hideous scar.
He looks very imposing and dignified; he must be their chieftain.
Randy shook his head. "Yes." He didn't want to reveal his identity, so he just went along with it for now.
"You are an outsider male. Where is your tribe?"
This person had sharp eyes. He seemed to be asking a casual question, but he was actually trying to confirm the identity of the person. His thoughts were the same as when Arthur came to the Forgotten Continent.
Find the tribe's location and then extort supplies from them.
Randy frowned. "Why should I tell you?"
He didn't like this person, especially those eyes. After tracing over him, they moved on to Guo Xiaoxiao, staring at her legs.
It's summer now, so Guo Xiaoxiao is dressed more lightly, exposing her arms and legs, making her look like a fair-skinned and smooth female.
Although she was covering her face, one could tell from her bright, expressive eyes that she was an extremely beautiful person.
Randy had the urge to kill him, but the orc, oblivious to his own limitations, continued talking.
"You must be the chief of the tribe. We don't mean anything by it. We just migrated here and wanted to discuss the division of territory with you. I think your tribe isn't too far from here."
Guo Xiaoxiao could tell at a glance that this person had ill intentions, but she wasn't surprised. The beastman world was a dog-eat-dog world, where you steal from me and I steal from you. It didn't fit modern thinking, but that was the reality.
