Jiao Su's golden eyes flashed with pity. He raised his hand and touched the top of Sheng Xia's head: "She'll be alright."
Hearing Jiao Su's calm tone, Sheng Xia felt inexplicably at ease. Her almond-shaped eyes curved into a smile, and she nodded gently.
"It's okay, don't worry." Aoki smiled brightly, walked over, pinched Shengxia's cheek, and gently pulled it outward.
He was relieved when he saw her almond-shaped eyes regain their liveliness. He gave Tie Bai and Jiao Su a wink and walked towards the door.
Xiaxia was worried, so he went to check on her.
Soon, Aoki returned with Wolf King and the others, along with some bad news.
"There are more and more strange beasts. We just encountered a group of unfamiliar beasts in the Midsummer Forest. They are warriors from another tribe."
Wolf King's voice was gentle and pleasant, and his unhurried tone revealed no nervousness, but Sheng Xia still felt inexplicably nervous.
She looked up in confusion: "What are strange beasts? What do they look like?"
Last time, Jiao Su and the others brought back some beautiful crystals, saying they had killed several strange beasts, but she didn't know the specifics of how they killed them.
They didn't say anything, and she didn't ask.
Hearing news of strange beasts again makes things seem more complicated...
Wolf King touched the armrest of the chair, noticed the unease in her questioning eyes, and picked her up and placed her on his lap.
She chuckled softly, "Strange beasts are ferocious beasts, resembling orcs, walking upright, with two thick, long teeth."
"Practicing with it can improve your strength. It has transparent stones in its brain; eating them can enhance your power, making it highly sought after by warriors."
Warriors spend their lives pursuing strength to protect females and cubs. Hearing news of the strange beasts, more and more warriors will come...
Over time, the unique features of Yafatu will become impossible to hide.
It sounds like a zombie, but it's not. She has a necklace of teeth that looks like a monster's teeth.
A gentle, cool breeze blew by.
Her smooth, black hair was ruffled by the wind in the height of summer, obscuring the faint worry in her eyes.
Tie Bai's pink eyes narrowed slightly. He raised his hand and tucked her stray hairs behind her ear, looking at Sheng Xia with a serious expression.
"It's okay, don't be afraid."
The wind suddenly picked up, and the sky darkened.
Immediately afterwards, raindrops began to fall.
She looked up in surprise: "It's raining!"
A huge metal umbrella appeared overhead, suddenly raising the field of vision, and Shengxia was taken over by Qingmu.
She hugged Aoki's head and smiled sweetly.
"The lion's metal umbrella is getting bigger and bigger. Is it because its superpower has leveled up?"
Her wood-type abilities were visibly getting stronger, and this was the first time she had noticed an improvement in her metal-type abilities.
"Yes, it has advanced to the next level. It will become more and more powerful in the future. Protect it..." The voice was lost in the increasingly heavy rain.
Aoki carried Shengxia forward and placed her on the rocking chair. Wolf King gently covered Shengxia with a blanket.
Yang Yun raised her peach blossom eyes slightly and immediately arranged the snacks. Then Jiao Su brought the fruit and placed it next to the snacks.
In the height of summer, Shengxia took a piece of dried meat from Yang Yun's hand, her eyes lit up, and she continued chewing.
"So delicious! Little sheep, how are you so amazing? This jerky is even better than the last one!"
Yang Yun's culinary skills seem to have no ceiling; they've always been excellent and are only getting better.
"I added some Sichuan peppercorns and a little jam to make the flavor richer. Eat more if you like, there's plenty more."
Yang Yun smiled shyly, her voice clear and cool with a hint of amusement.
While chewing on dried meat in the height of summer, she suddenly remembered something, looked down at her stomach, and saw that a thin layer of belly fat was beginning to take shape.
She bit her lower lip and struggled to look away.
I kept trying to comfort myself.
It's okay, it's okay...
However, the extra bit of meat was a favorite of the companions; in the beast world, plumpness is considered beautiful...
No one thinks she's ugly if she's a little chubby; they'll just think she's more beautiful...
After mentally preparing herself for a while, Sheng Xia looked down at her stomach and immediately broke down. She didn't want a spare tire!
"What's wrong?"
Shengxia looked up and saw Tie Bai walking over with a relaxed posture, holding a cup. Shengxia knew that it must be her favorite juice.
Why doesn't she have the body type to eat whatever she wants and not gain weight?!
All the males were busy in an orderly manner, taking good care of both their pups and their mates.
The drizzle intensified, and the entire Yafatu area was shrouded in a hazy rain and mist.
It felt so good that Shengxia drifted off to sleep.
When I woke up, it was still raining, but much less.
She opened her hazy eyes, sat up and looked out the window. Everything was shrouded in mist, and suddenly a golden figure came into view.
The golden lion moved freely through the rain, leaped up and landed steadily at the doorway, shaking off the water droplets from its mane.
It transformed into human form and pushed open the door to come in.
Seeing the summer sun, his eyes lit up, and he quickly walked over: "Xia, look, I've discovered a new flower!"
Looking at the vast expanse of flowers taller than herself, it took Shengxia a while to process what kind of flowers they were.
She stared wide-eyed in surprise and tilted her head back.
"Wow, henna!" Henna, also known as balsam, has seeds that burst open when touched when ripe, and she loves to play with them by touching them with her fingertips.
When I was little, my grandma would use this flower to cover my nails every summer. She would cover them before bed and take them off the next day.
The fingertips are redder than the nails, but the color on the flesh fades quickly, leaving only the color of the nails, and then it will look very pretty.
"Henna? It doesn't even look like a fingernail..."
Aoki looked down in confusion, staring at the single-petaled flower and then at the leaves, finding it utterly unrelated to the shape of his fingernail.
Suddenly, a hand reached out from the side. Fox Snow picked a flower and said with a smile.
