A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 29 Saving Lu Xiao
Shi Yin was furious. "You knew there was danger there, so why didn't you stop us? You let us walk right into your trap! You did it on purpose!"

Shen Tang sneered, "Don't you dare start slandering people with your mouth. Who here didn't hear me? I warned that the crystal mine was a trap, but you insisted on going, and now you want to blame me? What kind of logic is that? Do you really think everyone is as deaf, blind, and brain-dead as you?!"

Shi Yin never expected that this ugly monster would become so sharp-tongued. She was so angry that she wanted to pounce on Shen Tang and tear his mouth apart.

A cold glint flashed in Shen Li's eyes. His tall and imposing figure shielded Shen Tang behind him. His voice was gentle, yet carried an undeniable force, "Miss Shi Yin, please calm down. This is not the time for infighting."

Seeing that Shen Li was still protecting this ugly monster, Shi Yin was so jealous that she was going crazy. She gritted her teeth, her eyes turned red, and her fingertips dug into her palms.

When a wall falls, everyone pushes it down. Those who had trusted her before now stood up and angrily accused her.

"It's all Shi Yin's fault for giving false military information; otherwise, why would we have followed you?"

"With her B-level mental strength, she couldn't even detect the lurking contaminated species? And we trusted her so much!"

"If she hadn't insisted on taking us to find the purification crystal mine, my brother wouldn't have died there!"

"My beast husband, Baheng, is dead too! It's all Shi Yin's fault!"

"You bunch of ungrateful wretches! What right do you have to criticize me? You wanted a piece of the pie, so you insisted on following me. People die, so what? What does it have to do with me? Why are you taking all the blame on me!" Shi Yin was so angry that her face was contorted, and she almost fainted.

In the end, she became the clown pointed at by all the men, losing all face!
Tsk tsk, even Shen Tang couldn't help but feel sorry for Shi Yin. But that's just human nature. When you're useful, they'll praise you to the skies. When you're no longer useful, they'll throw you into the mud, stomp on you, and hurl insults at you more harshly than anyone else.

If anyone is to blame, it's her own fault.

"Enough! All of you shut up!" the city lord snapped coldly.

His tall and imposing figure stepped out of the crowd, and the powerful aura of an eighth-tier orc swept over them, exuding a strong sense of intimidation!

No one dared to utter another word, but their anger had not subsided, and their trust in the city lord and his daughter had greatly diminished.

"It smells so good! What are you eating here?" Suddenly, an orc sniffed and swallowed hard.

The newly arrived orcs had been on the run, starving and exhausted.

They could also smell the rich aroma of meat, which soothed their bodies and minds.

Shi Yin couldn't help but swallow hard and looked towards the campfire.

"You've come back just in time; we're having a barbecue right now," Shen Tang explained with a light laugh.

Three or four hundred people have returned, and there's definitely not enough meat left to eat.

When Xiao Jin and the others processed the beast meat, they threw away the internal organs, which the beastmen considered dregs.

True foodies know this: Offal is the essence of deliciousness!
Shen Tang licked her lips and suggested, "Those internal organs can also be eaten after processing; they taste quite good."

Shi Yin scoffed disdainfully, her voice dripping with sarcasm, "I thought you were so kind, making us eat these filthy entrails! You're just here to humiliate us!"

Shen Tang retorted without hesitation, "If you don't want to eat offal, then you can have your beast tamer go out and catch wild animals to eat. I only made this suggestion because everyone is exhausted. Everyone is the same. If you don't like offal, you can bring your own animal meat to roast. We worked hard to catch all this food. There's no such thing as a free lunch."

Shi Yin was speechless, unable to refute, and could only glare fiercely at Shen Tang, "Only animals eat internal organs, whoever wants to eat them can eat them, I won't!"

After saying that, she turned and left angrily.

The expressions of everyone present were varied. Internal organs were extremely foul-smelling, and no orc would ever eat such a thing; they were mostly thrown away as garbage.

Are those internal organs really edible?
"The offal does have a strong fishy smell, but it can be masked with seasonings and tastes great after grilling. I'll make it for you to try."

The orcs in the camp were already impressed by Shen Tang's skills. Several orcs took the initiative to help, cleaning all the internal organs that Shen Tang needed. They even left the bones and hides as requested by her. The entire beast was dismantled completely, with not a single part wasted.

Shen Tang placed all the prepared ingredients in the large broad leaves and called over several quick-handed beastmen to come and roast them together.

Soon, the hungry beastmen were drooling over the aroma of meat. Seeing her enjoying a skewer of roasted pig liver, they completely abandoned their disdain for offal and rushed to eat it.

But after actually tasting it, they realized how delicious the things they used to consider trash were!

The flesh of the heart is firm and springy.

The liver has a thick, dense texture.

The roasted animal hide was crispy and fragrant.

Break the roasted bones and suck out the marrow inside, which is like jelly and even more flavorful than roasted meat!

"It's so delicious! I've never eaten anything this good in my entire life."

"This tastes much better than the nutrient solution!"

"It pains me to think about all the entrails and bones I used to throw away when I hunted. If I had known they were so delicious, I would have kept them for myself."

"Shen Tang is so fat... Isn't she lazy and greedy? When did she become such a good cook? I really underestimated her before."

"Yes, it's so delicious. Let's chew. You really can't judge a book by its cover! Shen Tang is a bit ugly and fat, but her cooking skills are so good. She even made barbecue for us. She's kind-hearted. It seems we misunderstood her before."

Smelling the tempting aroma of meat, Shi Yin felt a stomach ache from hunger. She was filled with jealousy and resentment. How come that ugly monster seemed like a completely different person these days? Not only was she not so ugly anymore, but she had also become so popular, stealing the limelight that should have been hers!
"Yinyin, don't be angry. That Shen Tang is just a petty person who's gotten ahead. She's nowhere near as good as you!" A tall, elegant man walked over and gently comforted her. It was her beast husband, the white lizard. Shi Yin's expression softened a bit after seeing him, and she snorted resentfully, "It's just roasting meat, isn't it? Anyone can do that! Go out and catch me a wild beast right now!"

The white lizard's face stiffened. The poisonous smoke filled the night, making it impossible to see the road ahead. Who knew how many polluted creatures were lurking outside? If she asked him to go out and find food for her now, wouldn't he be sending himself to his death for nothing?
"What, even you want to defy me?" Shi Yin was in a bad mood and didn't like anyone, not even the white lizard that had always doted on her.

The white lizard gently comforted him, "I'll go catch some wild animals for you tomorrow. It's too late today, and it's dangerous outside."

Shi Yin thought about it and agreed, so she didn't say anything more. But her stomach was growling with hunger. Hu Shuo glanced at her indifferently, stood up and said gruffly, "I'm going to find Shen Tang to ask for some meat."

"You come back here!" Shi Yin glared and shouted sharply.

Her beastly husband went to that ugly monster to ask for food, wasn't that a slap in her face?
"None of you are allowed to go to that ugly monster for roast meat. If anyone dares to go, I will dissolve our partnership!"

Upon hearing this, Shi Yin's several husbands looked rather displeased. This woman was already starving herself, but she wanted to drag them down with her!
But she was, after all, the city lord's daughter, and a precious B-grade spiritual female. Although she was not particularly beautiful, they had pursued her for a long time before finally winning her over. Naturally, they couldn't afford to fall out with her over a barbecue, so they had no choice but to swallow their anger and give up.

As for Anya's situation, it wasn't much better than Shi Yin's.

Three of her five hunters were dead, and the remaining two were also seriously injured and lost their ability to hunt.

Anya stared intently at Shen Tang in the crowd, her expression sinister and resentful, her nails digging deep into her palms, jealousy rising uncontrollably from the bottom of her heart.

She was also starving, had no nutritional fluids, and was too ashamed to ask Shen Tang for food.

Fortunately, she has many admirers.

Anya casually sent a monkey-like beastman to ask for food and bring it back to her, while also watching how Shen Tang taught people how to grill meat.

Shen Tang was sitting by the campfire helping someone roast meat when he noticed a thin monkey-like beastman coming over to beg for food.

The system secretly told her that this person had come to get food for Anya.

Shen Tang's mind raced, a mischievous smile playing on her lips, as she handed him a large plate of barbecue.

Anya sat on the steps of the car, waiting anxiously. Soon, she saw the monkey-beastman running over with a plate of roasted meat.

The meat looked wrinkled and like animal hide, and she didn't know which part it was, but it smelled really good. Anya didn't care about that anymore. She was so hungry that she didn't care about her image. She grabbed a handful and stuffed it into her mouth.

The monkey-beastman's mouth twitched when he saw her eating so unceremoniously, but Anya was the most beautiful female in the city, and she was pleasing to the eye no matter how you looked at her!

The orc squatted down in front of Anya with a look of infatuation and asked ingratiatingly, "Aya, are you full? Do you want me to get you some more?"

After Anya finished eating, she wiped her mouth and nodded haughtily.

Suddenly remembering something, she called him back, "By the way, what did I just eat?"

The monkey-beastman scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "Um... you ate pig intestines. Shen Tang said that only this was left and no one ate it."

Anya's face suddenly turned ashen. She suddenly vomited, clutched her stomach, and went to vomit violently under the tree.

She felt nauseous, as if she had eaten shit, and she gagged violently, spitting out saliva.

"Shen Tang! You'll die a horrible death!"

She was furious and hurled sharp curses.

That fat woman definitely did it on purpose!
Just wait, she'll get her revenge sooner or later!
Shen Tang had been keeping an eye on Anya's situation with the system. When he heard that Anya was vomiting so badly that she was completely exhausted, he smiled slyly, which could be considered as getting revenge.

She's not a pushover; if you want to target her, be prepared to be targeted in return.

The beastmen had a great feast tonight, and they no longer dared to underestimate Shen Tang.

What intrigued everyone even more was how Shen Tang knew the purification crystal ore was a trap.

Is there really such accurate intuition in the world?

Some orcs came specifically to ask her, but Shen Tang only said it was a wild guess and couldn't get any answers. This only made everyone more curious and admiring.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the hidden mission: Winning Hearts and Minds (1). Reward: 100 boxes of high-energy compressed biscuits. The reward has been automatically sent to your system inventory. Please check it yourself!]

There's a hidden quest here?

Shen Tang was surprised and checked her system inventory. She found that there were indeed 100 more boxes of compressed biscuits.

We have water and food.

How afraid must this system be of her being left to wander in the wild?

As Shen Tang was inwardly grumbling, the system notification suddenly sounded in his mind again.

[Ding! A new side quest has been issued to the host: Help the male lead, Lu Xiao, escape danger. Reward: Facial repair once. Quest duration: three days. Please complete the quest as soon as possible!]
