Beautiful pinkish-purple clouds, neatly arranged in the sky, are as beautiful as the dwelling place of a beast god.
Many birds flew in flocks in the sky, creating a strange yet beautiful scene.
When there are clouds, it will rain.
They no longer lack water!
For a time, the entire orc continent was filled with joy.
Except for the bat-orcs.
Several pale-skinned, handsome males stood in front of the night-blooming jasmine, all with solemn expressions.
Ye Zhang frowned, stroked his chin, and spoke in a cold voice.
“I’ve observed that we bat-orcs have lost our sense of direction, while the other beastmen are moving normally.”
This is not normal.
Night-blooming jasmine leaned coquettishly against her partner and said lazily, "Prepare more food lately, that way you can't go wrong."
I wonder what Shengxia is doing. I'll go find her and chat with her another day.
Shengxia suddenly sneezed, rubbed her nose, and sat up from Tie Bai's arms.
Yang Yun lowered her eyes and removed a few ice buckets, her peach blossom eyes carrying a hint of worry, her clear, cold voice tinged with laughter.
"Are you cold? Would you like some hot water?"
Shengxia tilted her head and pressed it against his cold arm, then gently shook her head; she wasn't cold at all.
She then turned around, winked at Tie Bai, her lips slightly upturned, and her voice sweet and cloying.
"I need to wash my hands, could you please run some water?"
Having a partner with superpowers is so convenient!
Tie Bai lazily picked up a basin, filled it halfway with water, carried it to her, and raised an eyebrow.
"It's no trouble at all."
In the height of summer, she smiled sweetly and put her hand into the basin.
Suddenly, a pair of slender hands reached out from behind her, grasped hers, and gently washed her.
The familiar scent of jasmine wafted over, and a hot body pressed against her back. She turned around in surprise and saw the fox returning from the hunt and the wolf king behind him.
Shengxia leaned back and snuggled into his arms: "You're back. Was the prey easy to hunt?"
Judging from the state of the forest, it shouldn't be easy to fight there.
Thinking of the ferocious beast they had just encountered, Hu Xue smiled confidently, gave Sheng Xia a quick peck on the lips, and spoke with a smile.
"Of course it's easy to beat, your male is really strong~"
The only problem is that there are fewer prey, and you have to travel a long way to find one, but there's no need to tell her that it will bother her.
Wolf King smiled and affectionately ruffled her hair before sitting down on the chair next to her, displaying a gentle and amiable demeanor that Sheng Xia adored.
She kissed the fox, then turned and threw herself into the wolf king's arms.
At this moment, the chief was beaming with pride.
He tilted his head back, drank the water in the glass in one gulp, suppressed the inexplicable irritation in his heart, and burst into laughter.
"Witch doctor, it's finally going to rain!"
He just looked, there are lots of clouds, and they're so beautiful. Where there are clouds, there's bound to be rain...
The witch doctor gazed out the window with an inscrutable expression, his wise eyes filled with worry. He sighed helplessly, his tone tinged with sorrow.
"This isn't just going to rain, it's going to be an earthquake!"
The animal skin scroll once said, "When there are colorful clouds in the sky, there will surely be an earthquake!" (Yunnan is an exception; colorful clouds in Yunnan are auspicious. If you see multicolored or purple clouds in other places, be wary of an earthquake.)
"What?"
The witch doctor looked at his bewildered expression, unsure whether it was sorrow or anger. He lowered his gaze to the distance, his voice low.
"The animal skin scroll records that when colorful clouds appear, an earthquake will soon follow, and there is also a volcano in the north... The one recorded was..."

The next morning
When Shengxia sat down at the dining table, the three little ones happened to return from hunting with Tiebai and the fox.
The little wolf cub leaped lightly and landed on her lap, tilting its head and burying itself in her arms, acting coquettishly.
The lamb hopped next to her and nestled close to her affectionately.
A faint smile played on Shengxia's lips as she gently kneaded the back of their necks, stroking their fur one stroke at a time.
The little lion ran over, transformed into an adorable child, excitedly grabbed her hand, and pointed outside.
"Mom, look! The cotton flowers in the sky are lined up! And there are winged ants lined up on the ground!"
They were even more organized than he was when he ate.
Aoki smiled brightly, peeked out from outside at Shengxia, and said with a hearty laugh.
"Xia, come look at the sky, the colors are so beautiful!"
He had never seen such beautiful clouds before; Xia would definitely love them!
Upon hearing this, Sheng Xia smiled, bent down to pat his head, and walked out curiously.
Look up.
The sunrise was absolutely gorgeous, the morning breeze was gentle, and the clouds on the horizon were neatly arranged.
pretty?
That's an earthquake cloud! (For reference only)
She thought again: flocks of birds flying in the sky, birds unafraid of beastmen, ants running out of their holes, and cuckoos that became restless as soon as they stepped out of the space...
These things may not seem like much on their own, but when put together, they clearly tell her that an earthquake is coming!
After waiting for a while without receiving a response from Shengxia, Qingmu turned his head and looked at her in confusion, only to find her staring blankly at the sky.
He suppressed his inexplicable anxiety, smiled brightly, strode over, picked up the three little ones by the scruff of their necks, and tossed them behind him.
He grinned, put his hand on Shengxia's shoulder, and said with a hearty laugh, "You like it that much? You're totally mesmerized?"
Sheng Xia opened her mouth, but didn't know how to start.
Such a heavy topic...
When she saw Wolf King and Fox Snow walking out from behind, her eyes lit up, and she waved to them.
"Come quickly, call Yang Yun and Tie Bai over too."
It's better to announce something this big sooner rather than later so we can prepare accordingly.
The wolf king noticed her unease, tenderly patted the top of her head, and gently comforted her.
"No matter what happens, you don't need to be afraid. I'm here, and we're all here."
Gentle words have a magical power to soothe the heart of a beast. Sheng Xia smiled sweetly, opened her arms, hugged his waist, and snuggled into his embrace.
Aoki then realized what had happened, and although he didn't know what was going on, he spoke firmly.
"Yes, we're here, Xia, don't be afraid."
"Yes, I'm not afraid." Sheng Xia nodded with a light laugh.
If the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up.
After listening to Sheng Xia's analysis, everyone remained silent for a long time. Several pairs of eyes, each with a different shape, looked at Sheng Xia with the same deep affection.
Iron-white eyes lowered slightly, the smile not reaching them, as he thoughtfully looked at a group of ants in the corner.
With his peach blossom eyes narrowed, Yang Yun pursed his lips and looked at Sheng Xia with heartache. As if he had made up his mind, he looked at her with a firm gaze.
He secretly vowed to protect Xia with his life.
Fox Snow's eyes flashed, her expression turned serious, and she looked at Sheng Xia with pity, without saying a word.
Wolf King concealed the worry in his eyes, smiled, and lowered his head to kiss the tip of Shengxia's nose, his voice gentle and pleasant.
"Xia, I'm going to talk to the witch doctor and the chief. I'll be back soon."
Shengxia grabbed his hand and smiled mischievously.
"I'm going too!"
Aoki, with a shrewd smile, stood on the other side of the sweltering summer and exclaimed, "Me too! Me too!"
He didn't know when the earth would shake, so he had to stay by her side to protect her at all times.
The other males clearly shared Aoki's idea, and in the end, the whole family pitched in...
