Chapter 466 Warm Home
"Absolutely true! I swear! I would never utter a single falsehood!" The male dragon nodded frantically, his eyes filled with urgency.
However, the curiosity on Bai Wanwan's face vanished instantly, replaced by a cold decisiveness.
She didn't even glance at the dragon begging for mercy on the ground, as if what she had just heard was just an insignificant story, and calmly ordered her beast husband, "Kill it."
"What..." The hope on the male dragon's face froze instantly, turning into boundless fear and disbelief.
He didn't even have time to offer any explanation or curses.
"Pfft!"
Zhu Xiu's venomous fangs pierced his spine with pinpoint accuracy, instantly injecting deadly venom.
His body convulsed violently a few times, his eyes widened, filled with resentment and bitterness, and finally he lost all life and collapsed into the snow.
The wind and snow continued to howl, swirling up blood foam and snowflakes from the ground.
Hua Han, who had been standing quietly beside Bai Wanwan, looked at the body on the ground that was rapidly losing its temperature, and then at her calm partner. Finally, she couldn't help but ask, "Wanwan, how can you be sure that what he said is true or false?"
After all, that sounds like a reasonable explanation.
Bai Wanwan's gaze turned towards the direction from which the male dragon had come, as if piercing through the vast snowstorm.
“Is it true or not?” she said slowly, her voice cold and clear. “I can’t be sure based on his word alone, and there’s no need to waste time asking him here. He might be acting under orders, he might be trying to sow discord, or he might just be making up a story to disgust me before he dies.”
She paused, then turned to look at Hua Han and the other beastmen. "Anyway, I've decided to go to the Flood Dragon Clan. As for the reason, we'll find out for ourselves when we get there."
If they harm the original owner and then try to harm her, then she will not let any of the debts she owes go unpaid.
The cold wind, still carrying the stench of blood, lingered. The corpses of more than a dozen male dragons lay scattered on the pristine snow, their crimson color glaringly vivid.
Bai Wanwan didn't even frown. "Alright, the unsightly trash is all taken care of."
She stood up, brushed the remaining snow off her hands, and a relaxed smile returned to her face. She even looked at her beastmen with a hint of anticipation. "Now, it's time to get down to business."
The beastmen, who had just calmed down from their fighting, were all somewhat puzzled upon hearing this.
Yan Lie, carrying the wild boar he had just hunted, asked in a muffled voice, "Is this serious business? Wanwan, are we going to the Jiaolong tribe to settle scores with them right now?"
He glanced at the dragon's corpse on the ground, his eyes filled with murderous intent. How dare they plot against his wife! This was the end they deserved.
Bai Wanwan shook her head, her bright eyes sweeping over them before finally settling on Zhu Xiu's massive serpentine body: "No rush. Zhu Xiu, could you please go over there and make a large hole in the frozen sea?"
She then looked at Jin Yi and Xin Feng, "Jin Yi, Xin Feng, Yan Lie, you two keep watch by the water. As soon as a fish surfaces, catch it."
The claws of the silver wolf, the golden lion, and the snow leopard are all like hooks; she believes that any fish that surfaces will not escape.
After Bai Wanwan finished speaking, everyone got busy.
Bai Wanwan was also sent back to the cave by Yin Zehe, where she exchanged some hot pot base and vegetables from the system shop.
She hadn't had hot pot in a long time, and in a good mood today, she was going to treat herself to some.
There's nothing more comforting than eating hot pot on a snowy day.
Yin Ze carried the large pot to the makeshift stove that Xin Feng had set up. "Wanwan, you sit and direct, I'll take care of it."
"No, I'll do it myself."
She enjoys the process of cooking, because it gives her a sense of accomplishment when she eats the food.
She stir-fried the hot pot base until fragrant, then added water and various meat bones to simmer.
When the animal handlers carried in the fish and prepared wild boar meat, the cave was filled with a rich aroma of spices. At first, it was a bit pungent, but after smelling it for a while, it became somewhat addictive.
Looking at the vegetables and bones bubbling in the pot, Hua Han couldn't help but ask, "Wanwan, what's this? It smells so good!"
Bai Wanwan patiently explained to him, "This is called 'hot pot'! It's the most delicious thing in our hometown!"
As she spoke, she deftly prepared the ingredients: Xin Feng sliced the wild boar tenderloin as thin as cicada wings, making it crystal clear;
Jin Yi's prepared silver-scaled ice fish was sliced into snow-white fillets with distinct textures; Hua Han's snow mushrooms were fresh, tender, and plump.
She put them all into the pot.
He picked up a meaty bone, rinsed it in the warm water beside him, and then offered it to Hua Han's mouth, saying, "Try it."
Even though she deliberately used less seasoning, it was still quite stimulating for the orc who was eating so many spices for the first time.
Sure enough, Hua Han opened her mouth and started hissing for breath less than two seconds after taking a bite.
Bai Wanwan handed him the other side of warm water she had prepared, and Hua Han took a big gulp before he felt a little better.
"Don't force yourself to eat if you can't."
Now, her husbands have gotten used to the spiciness thanks to her occasionally cooking hot pot for them.
The explosive sensation on their taste buds was addictive for them.
"I can eat it. I think it tastes great, but I just need some time to get used to it."
He also tried eating lotus root and potatoes.
When he ate the vegetarian dishes, his eyes lit up. As long as he could endure it, the tingling sensation on his tongue would subside and become an irresistible feeling.
The more you eat, the tastier it gets.
Yan Lie, being the most impatient, eagerly picked up a large piece of wild boar meat, dipped it a few times in the boiling red broth, and the meat slices instantly changed color and curled up, becoming coated with an enticing red oil sheen.
After putting the first slice of meat that had been blanched into the white bowl, he went to blanch his own meat.
Once the meat slices were cooked, I didn't care that they were hot, and stuffed them into my mouth. I was immediately overwhelmed by the ultimate taste of spicy and savory flavor and tender meat, and I was filled with satisfaction: "It's so...so delicious!"
Xin Feng preferred fish slices. He picked up a snow-white fish slice with his chopsticks, dipped it lightly in the soup, and the fish slice instantly became translucent, coated with a layer of bright red soup.
Similarly, place the first piece into the female's bowl.
The beastmen remained silent, quietly savoring the burst of tender meat mixed with spicy broth on their tongues, their eyes narrowing in satisfaction.
Bai Wanwan was surrounded by the beastmen, her small bowl piled high with all sorts of delicious food that they had brought her.
She ate in small bites, feeling the numbing spiciness dance in her mouth, and a warm current spreading from her stomach throughout her body, dispelling the harsh cold of the snowy plain.
The little one inside seemed to sense the liveliness and warmth, and moved gently a few times.
She watched the scene unfold before her: flames leaping, red soup bubbling, steam rising, the beastmen feasting, and the cubs eating happily…
Laughter and the aroma of food mingled together, transforming this snowfield, which had just experienced carnage, into a warm and inviting home.
Zhu Xiu noticed that Wanwan had stopped eating and was just watching them with a smile.
He knew the road ahead was full of unknowns and risks, but he would do everything in his power to protect her and the cubs, so that she could do whatever she wanted in the future!
