Chapter 614: Chapter 617: How Can Such a Good Beastman Be Female?
Xi’en slightly closed his eyes, and after a brief pause, he spoke, "The Star Moon Flower that restrains the mist has always been kept by my Mother. She only brings it out when the tribemembers of our clan go out to exchange for salt, but each time it’s just a small amount. I can’t get any extra."
Qiu Mo was a bit puzzled by Xi’en’s intentions, and so she curiously asked.
"Why do you want to leave this place? Isn’t it very beautiful here? Aren’t all your family here?"
Xi’en cast a glance at Qiu Mo with his amber eyes. The color that should have been bright and clear was so dim in Xi’en’s eyes.
He chuckled softly and shook his head slowly, "This is not my home..."
His abrupt statement made Qiu Mo even more curious. She wanted to ask more, but was pulled back by someone shaking their head at her.
Gaiyin looked at Xi’en, "I can agree to take you away, but the prerequisite is that we can get what we want."
Xi’en and Gaiyin made eye contact. "Wooden Crystal Stone? I promise you."
Gaiyin showed a faint smile.
Talking to a smart person is effortless. They can understand each other’s intentions just by exchanging looks.
Su Tang was grabbing Gaiyin’s arm, looking astonished at the two of them. Since they had arrived at the West Ming Deer Clan, they had never mentioned the term ’Wooden Crystal Stone.’ How did Xi’en figure out they wanted the Wooden Crystal Stone?
Su Tang even secretly suspected deep down that these two could communicate in a voice that outsiders couldn’t hear.
After feeling Su Tang’s intense gaze, Xi’en looked over at her. With just one glance, he understood what the young female was thinking.
He looked at Su Tang with a gentle gaze, and his tone was even more tender, "Apart from Wooden Crystal Stone, I really can’t think of anything else in the West Ming Deer Clan that would make you go to such lengths to come here."
Su Tang laughed awkwardly when her thoughts were understood by others.
Gaiyin was once again upset, he stepped in front of Su Tang, solemnly warning with a blank expression, "This is my woman"
Xi’en nodded lightly, "I know."
Gaiyin grumbled again, "Then stay away from her!"
Xi’en obediently agreed, "Okay."
Gaiyin: "..."
This beastman is too soft. It feels like bullying a cub, and it’s not satisfying at all!
After reaching an agreement, Xi’en led them to the cave for resting.
On the way, Xi’en kept sneaking glances at Gaiyin and Su Tang, unable to hold back his sighs.
Ah, such a good Beastman, how come he has a woman?
...
The dinner was brought by Xi’en’s people.
His walking posture was a bit strange, and his neck was wrapped with Beast Skin. The skin inadvertently exposed bore what looked like scratch marks.
Su Tang blinked her eyes, even though she was curious, she kept her questions to herself and focused on the things Xi’en had brought.
They used large green leaves that she hadn’t seen in a long time, which were full of various fruits. On the side was a small stone bowl filled with round yellow things that seemed to have been boiled until soft.
Su Tang’s eyes lit up. After looking carefully, she still didn’t dare to confirm that it was soybeans until she had tasted it under everyone’s gaze.
But boiling such a versatile soybean into this mushy form is simply a waste! She almost didn’t recognize it!
Xi’en smiled softly, "Do you like it? Don’t rush, eat slowly. There are plenty more outside. I’ll get you more once you’ve finished."
