Chapter 219 The matter of the ferret ends here.

Yu Li's eyes suddenly turned cold, and her knuckles tightened into a sharp arc: "The poisonous gas is rampant in here. Lai Shiba once said that there shouldn't be any living creatures in the poisonous fog. Why is there suddenly a ferret? This thing's appearance is suspicious. It can't be kept!"

His voice was chilling, his expression wary, and his gaze never left the ferret.

Fu Ying glanced at the ferret that had gracefully leaped from her left shoulder to her right, and nodded in agreement: "Indeed strange."

She gently tapped the ferret's damp nose with her slender fingertips. The little creature flinched, seemingly repulsed by the intimate contact. Fu Ying chuckled softly, "Unfortunately, it seems we can't do anything about it."

Yu Li's pupils suddenly contracted, and he said in a deep voice, "What do you mean by 'there's nothing we can do about it'? What do you mean by that?"

Fu Ying calmly met his gaze and said lightly, "Alright, we've been out for too long, it's time to go back."

As she spoke, her gaze seemed to casually sweep over the ferret on her shoulder, the small, white creature curled up contentedly.

She couldn't handle that ferret, let alone Yu Li.

Moreover, its intelligence is probably much higher than they imagined. After all, the poisonous fog in the cave that kills upon contact is no match for it. If it is truly the source of the poison, Yu Li dares not say what the consequences would be if she angered it.

Thinking of this, a dark glint flashed in Fu Ying's eyes. Without making a sound, she turned slightly to block Yu Li.

"Fuying!" Yu Li clenched his fist, his knuckles making a slight cracking sound.

He suddenly stepped forward, grabbed her wrist and pressed it against his chest, his golden pupils fixed on Fuying. When their eyes met, his Adam's apple bobbed heavily: "I already have eight-star markings, I can help you!"

Yu Li's voice was terribly hoarse, carrying a hint of stubborn pain.

He didn't like her like that, swallowing everything!

No matter how powerful she is, she is still just a female. In the Beastman Continent, females should be cherished and protected by males. Any difficulties and dangers should be handled by males, not always borne by her alone!
But ironically, she was never someone who needed protection.

Fu Ying stared at Yu Li's forehead, where the dazzling eight-star pattern was very eye-catching.

She tilted her head slightly, a faint smile curving her lips: "Congratulations! You are a prodigy with eight-star markings. I was worried that your position as chieftain might be shaken since you haven't returned to the Golden Eagle Tribe for so long, but it seems that it is as solid as a rock."

Yu Li stared blankly into her calm, still eyes, when a sudden, metallic, metallic taste welled up in his chest.

He couldn't understand why this female, who was so close, felt like she was separated by an entire world.

Fu Ying smiled and said, "The medicinal herbs are ready. Let's go back."

After saying that, she stopped and turned to walk towards the Black Crocodile Swamp.

She originally planned to use a teleportation scroll on her way back, but unexpectedly encountered a ferret of unknown strength, so it was better to be cautious. Some special methods should be used in special situations, and perhaps they could have some unexpected effects in the future?

The ferret lay quietly on her shoulder, like a fluffy snowball. As the boat moved, its dark eyes glanced at the cave shrouded in the great formation, then quietly lowered again.

Yu Li watched Fu Ying's receding figure, her gaze falling on the ferret perched on her shoulder, her brows furrowed.

He suddenly turned and walked towards the stream. Strands of golden light pierced the deep pool, splashing water several meters high. Under the sunlight, the water reflected a bright light, and the splashing water droplets fell like a rainstorm.

Hearing the noise, Fu Ying turned around and glanced back, raising an eyebrow slightly.

She had almost forgotten that a "familiar face" was lurking in the deep pool of the stream—a toad-like beastman. A moment later, fine bubbles began to rise and gurgle on the surface of the pool.

"Wow--"

A tall, slender figure emerged from the water.

Lai Shiba's wet green hair clung to his pale cheeks, water droplets rolling down his chin. His handsome features had a unique charm. He raised his hand to wipe his face, gritting his teeth as he said, "Yu Li, you better have something to say!"

He spent all his time with Yu Li during this period. Although they weren't exactly friends, they had become somewhat familiar with each other.

Just as Lai Shiba was about to continue his attack, he suddenly noticed another gaze that seemed to be tangible, scrutinizing him.

His heart skipped a beat, and when he turned his head, he met Fu Ying's narrow eyes, which held a half-smile. Instantly, his pupils contracted sharply, his muscles tensed, and even his wet hair froze: "You...you actually..."

His gaze mechanically swept back and forth between the pillars and the entrance to the doorway, then he exclaimed in a shrill voice, "You actually made it out alive?!"

At this moment, probably no one could understand the turmoil in Lai Shiba's heart.

Over the past two weeks, various strange phenomena have occurred frequently in the poison cave, which is clearly abnormal. The poisonous fog inside can kill people; even an eight-star patterned poison-attribute beastman like him couldn't withstand it, let alone a female carrying a cub.
In his view, no matter how powerful the female was, she would die inside!
But what did he see now? Her animal hide was spotless, even her hair shone with pearls, her belly was more swollen, there were no festering or corrosive wounds on her body, and even her breathing was steady and normal!

She actually came out safely! And is standing here completely unharmed?
This realization caused Lai Shiba's breathing to quicken suddenly, his eyes fixed on Fuying, surging with an uncontrollable fervor.

A female who can move freely in highly poisonous fog is extremely precious to a poison-attribute orc.

Just as Lai Shiba was stunned, Yu Li grabbed his arm and dragged him to Fu Ying without saying a word.

Lai Shiba staggered a few steps as he was dragged along. Just as he was about to curse, he saw Yu Li raise his hand and point to Fu Ying's shoulder, saying coldly, "You've been here for so long, and you've even been to the poison den. Take a look, do you recognize this thing?"

Lai Shiba shook his wrist, which was aching from being squeezed, and muttered a few words of dissatisfaction.

He looked in the direction Yu Li was pointing, and when his gaze landed on Fu Ying's shoulder, he was somewhat surprised: "A ferret?"

Lai Shiba subconsciously raised his hand to stroke his chin, a hint of confusion flashing in his pupils. Suddenly, as if struck by lightning, his voice abruptly rose: "Wait—what do you mean? You, you wouldn't mean...you mean, this little thing came from the Poison Cave, would you? The Poison Cave? Are there any living things in there?"

A cold glint flashed in Yu Li's eyes as she looked at Fu Ying, took a deep breath, and said, "You heard that, this thing must not be kept!"

Lai Shiba gasped, "So you really came from the drug den?"

As he spoke, a fine layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and he couldn't help but take a step back, not daring to get too close to the ferret.

To him, the fact that the female could emerge alive meant that she was indeed a witch favored by the Beast God and possessed great abilities, but he didn't believe that a ferret that could live in a poisonous cave was not poisonous.

Lai Shiba stared intently at the seemingly harmless ferret, as if looking at a vortex of poison gas that could explode at any moment.

Fu Ying noticed the increasingly tense aura emanating from Yu Li and gently raised her eyes.

"Yu Li." Fu Ying's red lips parted slightly: "The matter of the ferret in Chapter 219 ends here."
