After catching his breath for a moment, Yadang slowly stood up with the support of the cave wall.
He fearlessly met Gaiyin’s icy gaze, exclaiming, "I admit you’re strong, but if the young female will accept me, you can’t stop it!"
Immediately, Gaiyin narrowed his black vertical pupils, emitting a dangerous Qi.
Su Tang hurriedly stood between Gaiyin and Yadang, scolding sharply, "Enough! Are you two childish? At this time, you’re still in-fighting!"
She pointed her gun at Yadang first, her face serious as she said, "I know you want to be my companion not because you like me, but because you think I have helped you a lot and don’t know how to repay me!"
"But Yadang, I helped you because you are my tribesman. I don’t ask for anything in return from you; all I ask is that you help Gaiyin watch over our tribe! Beastmen can have only one partner in a lifetime, right? If you become my partner and later meet another female you like, what will you do then!"
Yadang’s eyes flickered, his lips silently moved, but he said nothing.
Su Tang took a deep breath and turned her angry face towards Gaiyin, "I will only say this once, I will not repeat it!"
Immediately, Gaiyin withdrew his murderous intent, looking at Su Tang with an innocent and pitiful countenance, "Su..."
Su Tang’s breath hitched, but she ignored him.
"Gaiyin, in my homeland, a female can only be paired with one Beastman. I don’t care about the ways here, but in my heart, I like you, so only you can be my partner. I will not accept anyone else."
Gaiyin showed a smile, went forward to embrace Su Tang, but was stopped by her raised arm.
"Su?"
Su Tang looked seriously at Gaiyin, continuing, "But in my homeland, no one raises a fist against their own people, Gaiyin, I want you to promise me that you will not fight with others easily, let alone take anyone’s life casually!"
This is a serious issue; Su Tang didn’t want her future companion to be a murderer with blood on his hands!
Of course, due to the different environment, Su Tang didn’t make a definitive statement, only saying that he should not take lives indiscriminately, not that he should never take lives.
After all, they lived on the perilous Beastman Continent, and might have many enemies in the future. It can be acceptable to take action in self-defense, but Su Tang couldn’t imagine witnessing Gaiyin kill with her own eyes.
Gaiyin hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you! I won’t fight with others easily, let alone casually take lives!"
Su Tang finally breathed a sigh of relief, no longer resisting Gaiyin’s embrace, burying her face in his chest and murmuring, "I don’t like you fighting, even less do I like you killing..."
Gaiyin gently kissed the top of Su Tang’s head and in a soft voice said, "Don’t worry..."
Su Tang then turned her gaze back to Yadang, "I’m sorry, Gaiyin was too impulsive. I apologize to you on his behalf!"
Gaiyin frowned slightly, tightening his fist, but remembering what Su Tang had just said, he relaxed it.
"I was too impulsive. I’m sorry, it won’t happen again!"
Yadang suddenly laughed, touching the swelling on his neck, hissing, "Hiss... it really hurts!"
"But, since you don’t want me to be your partner, how about this... you consider me as a big brother, okay? Having me, a powerful priest, as a brother, you’re making a profit!"
