Chapter 470: Chapter 471: Old Affairs 8
Over the next few days, the three of them returned to their usual routine of hunting and teasing small animals in their spare time. They call it training, but it seemed more like fun.
However, Aqi recently noticed that food was mysteriously disappearing.
The other two didn’t seem to care much and even when Aqi mentioned it, they didn’t pay much attention.
Hai Qin said, "Don’t worry. We’re just missing a bit of food. Maybe some small wild beast was hungry and stole it. No need to be afraid. Ajue and I are here to protect you!"
Aqi gave Hai Qin a look, not wanting to deal with the idiot.
It was another sunny day, and as the three of them were about to set out, Aqi felt a strange sensation in her body.
Ajue’s nose twitched a few times as he looked at Aqi with a strange expression on his face.
Before Aqi could react, she scratched her head in confusion, "Why are you looking at me?"
After a while, Hai Qin’s face also faintly turned red. He whispered in Aqi’s ear, "Sis, are you in heat?"
Aqi’s eyes widened. Now that he mentioned it, it seemed true!
Aqi suddenly panicked, her big watery eyes were full of bewilderment.
Hai Qin coughed lightly, "Sis, why don’t you rest in the cave for a while? I’ll go gather some big green leaves for you."
Aqi nodded her head weakly, with her head hanging low.
After Hai Qin collected many big green leaves for her and she had cleaned herself up, she reluctantly lay on the Beast Skin.
Hai Qin rubbed his hands together, "Um, Sis, what would you like to eat? I’ll go and get it for you."
Aqi appeared dejected, her enthusiasm gone, "Whatever..."
Hai Qin paused a moment, then said, "Alright then, Ajue and I will go out for a bit and come back shortly. Stay in the cave and don’t wander off!"
Lazily, Aqi rolled over and replied, "Mmm..."
Perhaps because she was in heat, Aqi felt extremely lazy and didn’t want to move at all. But she couldn’t sleep and felt irritated.
She stared blankly at a piece of game not far away. She was bored. When Aqin returned, she decided to make him break off a couple of Xiluo tree branches for her to play with.
Suddenly, a blue light seemed to flash above the game not far away.
Aqi opened her eyes wide, blinking and staring intently at the spot. 𝘯𝘰𝑣𝘱𝑢𝘣.𝑐𝑜𝑚
Just as she was almost convinced that it was her imagination, the blue light flashed again!
Immediately, Aqi sat up excitedly. Full of curiosity, she kept staring at the blue light.
The blue light slowly expanded from a small blue point into a small blue vortex.
Aqi found it extremely magical, but also thought the blue light was beautiful. But what is it?
While she was wondering, she suddenly saw a slender hand with distinct bones emerged from the vortex.
The hand groped around the game, finally found a piece of meat on the hind leg of a Humming Beast, picked it up, and along with the piece of meat, disappeared into the vortex.
The blue light then disappeared––-
Aqi couldn’t come back to reality for a long while.
If it wasn’t for the missing piece of meat from the game, she would have almost thought she was dreaming.
And thinking of the game that disappeared in the past days, she was sure it was stolen by this person.
For some unknown reason, Aqi suddenly got excited. She kept this to herself and didn’t tell anyone.
When Hai Qin and the others came back and started to roast meat, Hai Qin scratched his head exclaiming, "Huh? Are we missing a piece of hind leg meat?
Aqi firmly denied it, "No, you must be remembering it wrong!"
