I don't care.
Guo Xiaoxiao said with disdain
Cang Jue patted her back gently, trying to appease her. Knowing that Guo Xiaoxiao was angry, he didn't hold it against her and fed her the meat.
Eat up.
Guo Xiaoxiao reluctantly ate a piece of meat. It tasted mediocre, as if hastily prepared, but it was better than being hungry. Because of her sore throat, she only ate a few bites before losing her appetite; her stomach felt uncomfortable, and she even felt nauseous.
Seeing that she couldn't eat anymore, Cang Jue ate the rest and then held her in his arms.
"Sweetie, don't be grumpy. Xiaoxiao, you're amazing! I'm so happy. Once you've rested, we'll continue our epic battle for three days and three nights!"
"You wish! You're only allowed to touch me next spring. The rest of the time, you can stay by yourself!"
Guo Xiaoxiao said arrogantly, "That's too ruthless. I thought Mickson was ruthless enough for one night, but it turns out this guy is the real trump card. He didn't let her go even the next morning."
Where does he get so much energy? He finishes one round and immediately starts another! It's insane!!
Spring? Winter hasn't even started yet, does that mean we have to wait several months before we can eat meat?
Cang Jue was frustrated; how could he tolerate it? But then he thought, it's best not to upset Guo Xiaoxiao for now. He'll coax her into bed with him when she's feeling better in a few days. Haha, not bad, not bad. Thinking this, he looked at Guo Xiaoxiao with pleasure, liking her more and more the more he looked at her.
Guo Xiaoxiao received a malicious look from Cang Jue, shivered, and said...
"What are you looking at? Behave yourself and stop thinking nonsense."
"I feel comfortable when I smell your sweet scent."
Cang Jue said gently
"rogue"
Guo Xiaoxiao cursed and struggled to get up, but Cang Jue grabbed her around the waist and pulled her back.
"Okay, stop being stubborn and lie down properly."
"I feel sticky all over and want to take a shower."
Guo Xiaoxiao frowned in disgust.
Although Cang Jue cleaned Guo Xiaoxiao with wet animal hide last night while she was asleep, she wasn't completely clean and still had an odor.
"I'll go prepare."
Cang Jue replied
Their tribe has no water source, but they have special bathing utensils for the females. However, most of the females are not clean and rarely use the stone basin.
Cang Jue filled the water tank, placed some firewood underneath to make hot water, and only after everything was ready did he carry Guo Xiaoxiao over.
Animal hides on all four sides, creating a nice bathing space.
Even more surprisingly, the huge stone basin was filled with the sweet fragrance of various plant leaves and petals, which was truly delightful.
Cang Jue deliberately placed it there because he thought Guo Xiaoxiao would like it. He gently put her down and removed the animal skin from her.
"I can manage on my own, you wait for me outside."
Guo Xiaoxiao shooed Cang Jue out.
Cang Jue nodded in agreement without lingering and walked out, leaving her alone. Guo Xiaoxiao was helpless; she really couldn't do anything about him. Afterwards, she smelled her wrist.
"It stinks!"
Guo Xiaoxiao muttered a complaint: "Take off your clothes and jump in."
Steaming hot vapor filled the stone basin, enveloping it in mist. Guo Xiaoxiao lay face down in the water, washing herself. Her chest, neck, and collarbone were covered in purplish-blue hickeys, and even her groin area wasn't spared. Only after the sticky feeling subsided did she settle down to enjoy the comfort of the warm water.
"Hmm..."
Guo Xiaoxiao's sixth sense alerted her. Hearing a noise above her, she was on guard against any danger outside, but instead of an enemy attack, she sensed a familiar presence.
She slowly raised her head, meeting the unwavering gaze of the heavens. She froze, then blazed with fury—he'd actually spied on her! She knew things wouldn't go so smoothly for him…
Cang Jue's expression immediately changed upon seeing her face.
I'll see if you can manage on your own.
"Who wants to see this! Get out of here!"
Guo Xiaoxiao blushed with embarrassment and became angry.
Upon seeing this, Cang Jue immediately retreated, not forgetting to remind him as he left.
"Don't soak for too long, or you'll catch a cold."
"none of your business!"
Guo Xiaoxiao glared at him angrily, covering her chest with her hands; she wasn't going to let him get away with this.
Cang Jue touched the tip of his nose. He shouldn't have acted so rashly; he had indeed angered someone.
~~
Guo Xiaoxiao didn't waste a moment. After soaking in the bath, she got out of the stone basin, her body aching and she felt unsteady on her feet. She put on her clothes, lifted the animal skin covering her body, and found Cang Jue guarding the door.
"You're still here? Didn't you leave already?"
"How can I leave you alone if you're not feeling well!"
Cang Jue explained
Guo Xiaoxiao was speechless. Her current state was all because of him! And he still had the nerve to say that?
"Cang Jue, come quickly!"
An orc rushed over in a panic.
Cang Jue was startled and told Guo Xiaoxiao to wait where she was. He followed the orc away. What had happened? Despite her weakness, Guo Xiaoxiao followed to investigate.
The arena was already surrounded by orcs, who were whispering and snarling, their anger palpable. When Cang Jue and Guo Xiaoxiao arrived, everyone instinctively made way for them.
At that moment, a severely wounded orc lay on the ground, barely alive. Alo gave him some healing water, which he drank, and after one sip, he was almost fully recovered and regained his strength. Upon seeing Cang Jue and the others, he hurriedly said…
Seth and Carl are both dead.
The words had barely left their lips when a mournful cry echoed through the air. They flew back from afar, and the two eagle-beasts laid the bodies of Seth and Karl on the ground.
Seth's body was covered in poison needles, his flesh was festering and decaying, and he was in a terrible state.
Karl was in an even worse state; his throat was bitten open, the blood congealed, and he was torn to pieces, leaving only a human skin covering his internal organs.
When Guo Xiaoxiao saw the corpse, she was terrified and covered her mouth to stop herself from screaming.
Cang Jue quickly raised his hand to cover her eyes to avoid shock, fearing she couldn't bear it. Seeing the horrific scene, A Luo sighed repeatedly; these two promising young people had perished.
Guo Xiaoxiao pulled away from Cang Jue's hand, turning her back in disbelief. The battles in the beast world were far more terrifying than she had imagined. Cang Jue unleashed a powerful aura, suppressing killing intent, and asked...
