Ming Shu didn’t know how far she was from the peacock tribe. But, she knew that she was really far away……

  The sun was already starting to rise.

  She saw someone walking over from the horizon.

  Then, the person fell down under her gaze.

  Ming Shu slowly walked over and bent down to look at him.

  Yun Huang didn’t need to breathe so he just lay on the ground without any expression. Even when Ming Shu came over, there was no change in his expression.

  “You managed to come so far. Impressive.” Ming Shu helped him up and asked in a helpless tone, “Where are you hurt?”


  Yun Huang’s cold face was pressed against Ming Shu’s chest.

  “No……”


  Yun Huang’s body was dirty but he was not hurt.

  He just looked tired like the time when he finished drawing the beast god pattern.

  “He’s over there…… catch him!”


  Footsteps and angry shouts came from the horizon. The noise seemed to have startled the sky. The sky turned bright.

  Yun Huang suddenly pushed her. “Run……”


  Ming Shu held him and looked at the horizon. Many shapeshifters were charging at them. They quickly surrounded them.

  “How did you provoke them?” Ming Shu asked quietly.

  Yun Huang stopped pushing her. He grabbed her wrist. It was cold but not uncomfortable.

  “He still has an accomplice. He killed our clansmen and blasphemed against the beast god.” The shapeshifters helped Ming Shu to clear her doubts. “Catch them and sacrifice them to the beast god!”


  Ming Shu: “.……”
……

  Yun Huang hugged Ming Shu’s neck. His head was on her shoulder. Ming Shu was carrying him.

  All the shapeshifters lay on the ground behind them.

  She was impressive……

  Ming Shu glanced sideways at him. She met Yun Huang’s gaze. She smiled. “If you cause any trouble again, I will not come and look for you.”


  Yun Huang asked with a poker face, “Why?”


  “.……”

  “Do I look very free? What did I tell you?” Ming Shu smiled. “I said that if you leave the valley, I will break your legs, right?”


  Yun Huang recalled what she said.

  He replied slowly, “They will grow back.”


  Ming Shu: ???

  Ming Shu wanted to throw him down and leave him to fend for himself.

  Just as she was thinking about this, she felt something cold on her face. A soft and gentle kiss landed on her cheek.

  Yun Huang moved away slightly after kissing her.

  Ming Shu couldn’t help but ask, “Why did you kiss me?”


  Yun Huang replied honestly, “I don’t know.”


  He saw male a shapeshifter doing this to a female shapeshifter. The female shapeshifter would smile at the male. They said that smiling meant the person was happy. She would be happy too, right?

  Ming Shu felt that she understood what kind of character profile Yun Huang had.

  He didn’t seem to have any emotions.

  Ming Shu put him down. Yun Huang’s legs were weak so he hugged Ming Shu’s neck and tried to stabilize himself.

  He did it so blatantly. He felt no emotions or had any thoughts regarding their intimate interaction.

  Ming Shu grabbed his chin and kissed him. Yun Huang had no choice but to accept the kiss.

  Just as she expected, he had no change in emotion.

  Those eyes were still empty.

  Ming Shu pecked him twice and then held his face. “If only you can always be so obedient.”


  She felt her head hurting when she remembered the naughty little demon.

  Yun Huang tilted his head. “What does obedient mean?”


  Ming Shu said, “Listen to what I say?”


  Yun Huang thought about it for a while. “I will listen to you.”


  Although he didn’t know why, he just wanted to agree with whatever she said.

  “As if. You are just saying so.” Ming Shu didn’t believe him. “Can you walk?”


  “I will listen to you,” Yun Huang emphasized.

  “Okay, okay, okay,” Ming Shu replied indifferently. “If you can walk, walk by yourself. Don’t hug me.”


  Yun Huang tried to stand up straight after releasing her but failed. Ming Shu quickly grabbed him and pulled him upright. “Troublesome.”
……

  Ming Shu brought Yun Huang back to the valley.

  The fire around the valley had been put out by now. Ming Zhe was scrutinizing the other shapeshifters as they planted trees.

  A bunch of shapeshifters sweated profusely as they worked hard.

  The scene was quite impressive.

  Ming Shu brought Yun Huang back to his room before looking for the black dog leader who had been locked up individually.

  The black dog leader was tied up with vines that had been soaked in beast spirit herb. He lay motionless on the ground like a dead dog.

  The blue sky reflected in his eyes. Then, something blocked the light above him.

  The black dog leader raised his head forcefully.

  “Yao Luo……”


  He gritted his teeth as he called her.

  Ming Shu smiled. She held her sunflower seeds. “Let’s have a chat.”


  The black dog leader squeezed out his words: “I underestimated you.”


  This was why he was in this situation. He felt remorse but mostly, he felt hatred and anger.

  Ming Shu encouraged him. “Yes, please do better next time.”


  The black dog leader: “.……”


  Ming Shu smiled gently. Her eyes were clear and enchanting. Her smile was like the flowers in spring, beautiful and refreshing.

  However, to the black dog leader, she was humiliating him.

  It was a poisonous smile.

  “Let’s have a chat. What did you all want to summon just now?”


  The black dog leader frowned. He was on his guard.

  He turned his head. He didn’t want to answer this question.

  “Why are you doing this? The thing that you are trying to summon didn’t even bother with you.”


  “That was because……” The black dog leader suddenly stopped. He sneered, “Don’t try to get anything out of me.”


  He felt anger burning in his heart when he remembered how Ming Shu stepped on the whirlwind.

  “I have no other choice then.”


  Ming Shu’s voice floated in the air.

  The black dog leader tensed up. He looked at Ming Shu furiously.

  Ming Shu didn’t move. She ate her dried sweet potato slowly.

  The black dog leader: ???

  The black dog leader watched Ming Shu as she finished half the pack of dried potatoes.

  He hadn’t even had a drink of water ever since he got tied up.

  The sky got brighter. The black dog leader’s panting got heavier. He was thirsty and hungry.

  Was she trying to get him to give up like this?

  The black dog leader looked at her with contempt. He was not someone who would succumb so easily.

  However, the black dog leader was thinking too much. Ming Shu just wanted to finish her food.

  She finished her last sweet potato and clapped her hands. Her tone was lighthearted. “Let’s start. Don’t scream or shout. It is not good if you disturb other small animals who are working.”


  The black dog leader was puzzled.

  Very soon, loud screams of pain rang through the valley.

  They echoed throughout the valley.

  The little animals who were planting trees didn’t dare to be lazy. They worked even harder.
