A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 449 Your smile is so beautiful~
As a mermaid, Jialan is most unable to resist the allure of water.

He glanced disdainfully at the noisy crowd, which had churned the river water into a muddy mess. He walked upstream, found a quiet, less crowded spot, jumped into the river, transformed back into his original form, and swam around freely.

Seeing how happily he was swimming, Xueyinzhou also transformed into his true form and entered the water, feeling the cool, clean water nourishing every scale on his body, washing away the sand and stones hidden within the scales, and comfortably narrowing his deep purple snake eyes.

"You two move aside, give me some room—"

With a loud splash, water exploded everywhere!
The dark leopard head emerged from the river, spitting out a mouthful of water. It then began to swim in the river in a dog-paddle style, waving its uncoordinated limbs in an indescribably clumsy and comical manner.

"Go somewhere else, don't get in the way." Xue Yinzhou and Jia Lan were splashed with water and felt like they wanted to strip the leopard skin off.

Why did that leopard have to come and cause trouble in front of us? It's just asking for trouble!
"What, you want to fight me? Come on then, let's see if you can catch me." Xiao Jin snorted provocatively, slamming his thick paw into the water, splashing up a large wave!
Jia Lan and Xue Yinzhou's faces darkened, and they immediately unleashed their special abilities.

Shen Tang watched the three people playing and laughing not far away, and laughed heartily. She bent down and tied the hem of her long skirt to her legs, sat on the bank, and let the cool river water wash over her calves and toes, gently splashing the water.

She turned to look at Lu Xiao, who had stopped behind her, and teased, "Aren't you going to go down and play in the water?"

Lu Xiao was willing but unable to do so. He was a bird of prey, not a waterfowl, and his feathers would become heavy and uncomfortable if they got wet. "If the female master wants to go swimming, she can play without worry. I will watch from the shore."

As he spoke, he took out a clean women's swimsuit from his spatial storage and handed it to her.

Shen Tang changed into this light pink swimsuit and went swimming.

She turned around and saw Lu Xiao transformed into his true form, standing solemnly by the river. He lowered his head, peeked at some water, then turned and tucked his head into his wings, shaking it and carefully grooming his feathers.

Shen Tang almost couldn't help but laugh. She never expected the usually serious and upright Lu Xiao to have this side to him. He was so cute!
Wow!
A wave of water crashed over, soaking Shen Tang completely.

"Well, you dare to ambush me!" Shen Tang turned her head and glared at Xiao Jin, who was laughing loudly not far away, and casually picked up a small stone and threw it at him.

Oh no! I'm angry!
Xiao Jin plunged into the water and flashed to a distance of over a hundred meters, running incredibly fast.

Shen Tang was both angry and amused.

Suddenly, a cool sensation wrapped around her calf. Before Shen Tang could react, she fell into a broad, slightly cool embrace.

Shen Tang looked up and saw Xue Yinzhou's cold and handsome face, his eyes revealing a hint of killing intent. She was stunned for a moment, then turned her head to look at the spot where she had just been. She saw a strangled water snake floating on the water, drifting away with the river.

Shen Tang was startled; many water snakes are venomous, and she almost got bitten!
The system shop sells antidotes that can neutralize most poisons, but being bitten will still definitely hurt!
"Where are the snake scales I gave you?" Xue Yinzhou touched her pale face and comforted her.

Shen Tang took out a silver-white snake scale from the optical brain space. It shimmered in the sunlight, as beautiful as a pearly seashell.

"Why don't you carry it with you?" These unintelligent, low-level snakes don't react much to supernatural abilities, but they are very afraid of powerful beastly auras.

"I can't bear to take it with me. You'll definitely be upset if I lose it." Shen Tang put the snake scale, which was the size of a palm, back into her spatial storage. She wrapped her arms around the man's neck, looked at his handsome and aloof face, and leaned in to kiss his soft, cool lips.

Xue Yinzhou was incredibly soft-hearted and stroked her hair. "How could I be angry with you? The scales were removed to protect you."

Placed in a space, it becomes beautiful but useless.

"Give me the scales." Xue Yinzhou held out his hand. Shen Tang's alarm bells rang, and she pouted unhappily, "You promised to give them to me, you're not going to regret it and want to take them away, are you?"

"Hehe, no, it's just that the scales are indeed hard to handle. I'll make you a necklace or some kind of jewelry so you can carry it with you at all times." Xue Yinzhou always had a gentle smile on his face when he looked at her.

Shen Tang was captivated by this gentleness and stared at him for a moment, momentarily stunned.

Xue Yinzhou was naturally handsome and stunning, but unfortunately he always had a cold and aloof expression, which led Jia Lan and Xiao Jin to jokingly call him "the expressionless snake." This made people focus more on his strength and dangerous aura at first glance, rather than his appearance.

As Xue Yinzhou smiled slightly, the clouds parted to reveal the sun, and the pearl, which had been covered in dust, shone brightly again, dazzlingly beautiful.

Shen Tang cupped his face in her hands and couldn't help but say, "Yin Zhou, you look so handsome when you smile~"

Xue Yinzhou's heart suddenly trembled, then he was filled with a soft and tender feeling. He couldn't help himself, and with his long, white fingers, he pinched her chin and lowered his head to give her a deep, lingering kiss.

Xiao Jin originally wanted to come and snatch the person away, but when he saw this beautiful, picturesque scene, he was so angry that he almost exploded.

A few unfamiliar orcs scattered not far away also turned around shyly, but that couldn't stop some people from secretly looking in their direction.

"Ahem~ Stop! There are so many people watching!" Shen Tang gently pushed Xue Yinzhou away, her pretty face blushing like the sweetest berry in the forest. Her clothes were soaked, outlining her exquisite curves, which made him even more eager. His tail had already unconsciously wrapped around her waist, and he wished he could hold her and do something else!
Xue Yinzhou suppressed his urge to go, "I'll take you to the parade over there."

"Okay~" Shen Tang hugged his slender waist back, flicked her long and majestic snake tail, and easily swam several meters away.

The surrounding scenery rushed past her, and all she could hear was the whistling wind and the crashing waves.

I didn't expect him to be such a good swimmer.

Jialan watched the two swim further and further away, wishing he could snatch the female back. He was clearly the best swimmer, but unfortunately, he had the desire but not the courage.

His strength was simply too low; that snake could easily turn him into a meat patty with a single flick of its tail!
Jialan secretly resolved: I need to go out and gain more experience in the future.

Xiao Jin originally wanted to chase after them and disturb them, but his attention was soon drawn to a plump river fish swimming not far away.

His golden eyes suddenly lit up, and with a splash, he plunged into the water!
Soon, he burst out of the water, a plump, fresh fish in his mouth, still thrashing its tail wildly and slapping it hard against his face!
Xiao Jin's face stung from the slap, but he simply opened his mouth and swallowed the raw fish whole. He smacked his lips and said with satisfaction, "This fish is so plump and delicious, so oily and fragrant. It would definitely be delicious grilled. Let's go eat grilled fish tonight!"

Jialan looked up at the gradually darkening sky, feeling a bit hungry. Thinking that the two of them would be back soon, she plunged into the water and quickly returned with a full catch.

Lu Xiao took out a bucket from his spatial storage and filled it with the spoils the two had caught.

He flew to the distant mountains and forests, brought back a lot of firewood, and started a fire to cook.

As darkness fell, Shen Tang and Xue Yinzhou returned exhausted from playing and saw several small tents set up on the shore, with warm campfires burning at the entrances and sizzling fish and meat grilling on racks.

The aroma was so enticing that even beastmen within a three-mile radius could smell it.

It looks so delicious it makes my mouth water!
Good night~
