I understand, please stop talking.
Cang Jue shrugged and said
"oh"
"Xiaoxiao, what kind of corn seeds do you want?"
Mikson, observing the subtle shift in the relationship between Guo Xiaoxiao and Cang Jue, interjected.
Guo Xiaoxiao believed they definitely had corn seeds, just a different name than the ones she knew in modern times. She described what corn looked like to the two of them.
"It grows very tall, wrapped in a skin-like layer. Inside that layer is a golden corn cob, which can be boiled or grilled. It tastes sweet and is a common vegetable."
"That doesn't seem to be of much use. Our tribe's diet mainly consists of meat, and we have plenty of wild vegetables that only you females like to eat. Why would you grow this?"
Mickson said doubtfully, "I thought Guo Xiaoxiao meant growing wild vegetables, wildflowers, or ornamental plants, but it turns out it's for eating."
Cang Jue also found it strange, but he wouldn't hinder Guo Xiaoxiao's hobby. "She likes planting, so why ask so many questions?" he said.
“She's just planting it for fun, and she finds it interesting. Why not just let Xiaoxiao plant it? Mikeson, you go ahead with your work. I'll take her to the Jumping Orcs to ask.”
"Does the female have to go find a seed herself? It's too dangerous outside," Mickson said.
"Go and bring her back. Xiaoxiao stays in the tribe; the jungle is unsafe, don't go out."
Cang Jue's face fell upon hearing this.
"I will protect Xiaoxiao, don't worry. It's so boring staying in the tribe all the time, taking her out for a walk will make her feel more refreshed."
Mickson sneered
"I don't need your pretense. I'll take care of Xiaoxiao, so you don't need to bother. It was you who let Arthur find Xiaoxiao, and you still have the nerve to say you're protecting her?"
"you……"
Arthur's matter had indeed touched a raw nerve. Cang Jue glared at Mikeson, the tense atmosphere between them making it impossible for anyone to approach.
“What’s wrong with me? At least Xiaoxiao has never been harmed in the Yushan tribe, but you took her to a dangerous place.”
Cang Jue said sarcastically, "That sounds nice, but don't forget, I took Guo Xiaoxiao from the Yushan tribe before, and you couldn't stop me."
Mickelson glared at him: "That's because you were lucky!"
Cang Jue scoffed, "Hmph! You're a spineless coward, wanting to monopolize Xiao Xiao but too afraid to admit it."
"Azure Desolation!"
Mickson roared in exasperation, threatening to pluck all the stinky bird's feathers.
Cang Jue showed no fear whatsoever: "What's wrong? Are you angry?"
Guo Xiaoxiao pulled Cang Jue
"Cang Jue, that's enough! I'm getting angry if you keep bullying Mikeson. Just shut up."
"If I don't bully him, am I supposed to let him bully me? If I do, will I ever see you again? I'm not stupid."
Cang, who never gave anyone face, was also angry. He wasn't wrong; Mickson didn't want him near Guo Xiaoxiao, and he wouldn't tolerate it. If he kept giving in, what would become of their future? How could they stay together? He had actually been enduring a lot of hardship; bowing down to Mickson and entering Yushan was already a great humiliation. Neither of them had ever considered peaceful coexistence. They were bound to fight sooner or later anyway, so what was there to be afraid of? Let's do it!
"You... fine! Cang Jue! You want to fight, don't you?"
Mickelson made a harsh statement.
"Always ready"
Cang Jue activated his half-beast transformation, revealing sharp claws on his fingers. A battle between the two was imminent, the atmosphere instantly becoming tense and fraught with danger. Guo Xiaoxiao was terrified and quickly tried to stop them. No matter what, a fight between the two of them wouldn't do any good. She yelled at them...
"Stop it, okay? You two stop fighting all the time. Talk it out and think about me. I'm so tired being caught in the middle, you know?"
Upon hearing Guo Xiaoxiao's words, the two of them slightly, just a tiny bit, restrained themselves.
"Xiaoxiao, let's go find the seeds. Let's ignore him and make sure he can never beat me."
Cang Jue, carrying Guo Xiaoxiao, tried to use his advantage to fly into the sky. Seeing this, Mikeson immediately rushed up, grabbed Guo Xiaoxiao's arm, and refused to let go.
"Xiaoxiao, you're not allowed to go with him!"
Seeing that Guo Xiaoxiao's hand had been grabbed, Cang Jue said, "You're really something."
"Mickelson, let go of me, you're hurting me."
Mickson gripped Guo Xiaoxiao's arm tightly, making it red from his grip. Seeing this, Mickson loosened his hold, but Guo Xiaoxiao still looked at him with a pitiful expression.
"Don't go, okay?"
"Hey, stop arguing, aren't you tired? The alliance is fighting against the Blacktooth Tribe together, we can't let ourselves fight amongst ourselves first."
Guo Xiaoxiao cried out in pain, unable to bear it any longer. Cang Jue put Guo Xiaoxiao down, and Mickson also let go. The three of them remained still for a while before sitting down to calm down.
No one spoke, and the buffer period passed quietly like this.
The problem between Mikeson and Cangjue must be resolved. Guo Xiaoxiao needs to be ruthless towards Mikeson. Since Cangjue is her mate and they've been paired up, she can't just keep seeing one man and not the other. Other females can live happily with four or five males, which is much better. She needs to teach Mikeson a lesson.
Guo Xiaoxiao broke the silence first, looking at Mickelson and saying...
“Mickson, you’re a male, you need to learn to tolerate other people’s shortcomings. Cangjue has a nasty personality, annoying behavior, and doesn’t think things through. You can’t reject him just because of that.”
The conflict between Miksen and Cangjue is a matter between them, a long-standing grudge, but they are both Xiaoxiao's partners, which explains why they have been living apart.
"Xiaoxiao...I..."
He suddenly found himself speechless.
Cang Jue felt a little ashamed; he was so insignificant in Guo Xiaoxiao's eyes, and he was extremely depressed.
"If you take your anger out on Cang Jue because of me, you won't be the person I know anymore. I don't want this misunderstanding between you two to continue. You're both my partners, we're family. What's the point of arguing all this time? Just be patient with Cang Jue a little longer, and it'll all pass with a smile."
