Chapter 213 I Won't Do Anything Reckless
"I'm curious, don't merfolk all live in the sea? Why do you and Xiya live in a cave?"

She couldn't tell from Xi Jing's appearance that she could stay away from the sea for a long time.

Xi Jing paused for a moment before speaking, "Something happened that forced us to leave."

Qiao Xixi thought for a moment and said, "Is this related to your injury?"

Xi Jing was surprised that Qiao Xixi was so smart. "Yes."

"So, was your injury related to a land beast?"

"Correct."

It's no wonder that Shioya hates land beasts so much.

Qiao Xixi got up and walked up to Xi Jing. The closer she got, the more she realized how extremely beautiful he was. If Fei Yan, that stinky fox, had a flamboyant beauty, then Xi Jing had a broken beauty that made people reluctant to touch him easily.

Xi Jing was somewhat surprised to sense Qiao Xixi's approach.

"Do you know about the salt fields in the Earth Sea that were seized by Tiger Beast City?"

As soon as Qiao Xixi finished speaking, she clearly felt Xi Jing's body stiffen for a moment.

"You are an orc from Tiger Beast City?"

"No, I am their enemy. I heard that the salt fields in Tiger Beast City were obtained through dishonest means, so I came to inquire about it. Do you know what happened?"

Qiao Xixi was met with a long silence. She didn't know either; she was just asking tentatively because the father and daughter were too strange. Since Xiya was her child, there were some things she had to figure out.

Xi Jing doesn't trust her now, and she's not in a hurry to tell the truth; she'll take it one step at a time.

"Don't go near that area of ​​the sea, it's very dangerous there."

Qiao Xixi knew immediately that he must know something.

"Why? Is the sea dangerous, or are the orcs of Tiger Beast City dangerous?"

Xi Jing pursed her lips, seemingly trying her best to suppress something. "It's dangerous. Don't go near it without permission. Tiger Beast City is very difficult to deal with."

Of course, Qiao Xixi knew that Tiger Beast City was not easy to deal with, otherwise she would not have wanted to make use of that salt field.

"Okay, I won't do anything reckless."

After saying that, Qiao Xixi got up and sat back down on the animal skin cushion.

Xi Jing had already turned her back to her, and it was unclear what she was thinking.

But one thing is certain: when Xi Jing is sober, she doesn't recognize her.

This is strange.

"Little demon, are you sure Xiya is my baby?"

"Host, I am absolutely certain that Xiya is your baby."

"Then why can't Xi Jing smell my scent at all?"

"I don't know either, host. Why don't you ask him yourself?"

Orcs have a very keen sense of smell, especially considering Xi Jing's appearance just now. She seemed to still be thinking about Xi Ya's mother, looking like she had been abandoned and was filled with resentment.

Isn't she Shioya's mother? Isn't she the object of his lament?
Lost in thought, the tiger cubs woke up hungry. Qiao Xixi snapped out of her reverie, lay down, and fed the cubs.

Since Xi Jing can't see it anyway, she won't feel embarrassed.

"You little chubby, you can really eat." Every time she finishes feeding her baby, she feels an emptiness as if she has been drained dry. Do all babies eat this much?

"If your father knew you were such a glutton, he would definitely laugh at you."

The little tiger cubs couldn't understand what their mother was saying at all; they just drank their milk diligently.

……

Inside the Divine Leopard Tribe, Jin Wei's face was extremely gloomy.

They searched for two days along the direction the burrowing beasts disappeared but found no trace of Jin Lin and the others. What he didn't know was that, in order to conceal their whereabouts, after the burrowing beasts sent Jin Lin and the others to the Abyss of Despair, many burrowing beasts burrowed around underground in the area they left behind, just to confuse Jin Wei and the others.

"Keep searching for them. Turn the entire Divine Leopard Tribe upside down and find them."

Just as the orcs were about to retreat, a snow-white figure appeared in the forest.

Jin Wei's pupils dilated slightly when he saw that figure emerge.

"They are the Holy Guards of the Temple."

Jin Wei stood up and walked up to the Holy Guard. "Why is the Holy Guard here?"

“I have come on the orders of the High Priest. The High Priest said that no beast city can harm a tribe without cause. Lord Jin, you have violated the rules. The High Priest wants you to immediately take your people back to Tiger Beast City.”

Jin Wei's tiger-like eyes were sinister. "Some orcs have harmed the tribe's chieftain. I've come to rescue him."

The Holy Guard was clearly not so easily fooled. "You know perfectly well what Lord Jin is here for. I have already delivered the message. If Lord Jin insists on disobeying the Holy Priest, then you will have to bear the consequences yourself."

After saying that, the Holy Guard jumped into the air, transformed into a beast, flapped its wings, and soared into the sky.

He had barely left when Jin Wei's face turned extremely grim.

"Damn it, who let Beast King City find out about this?"

Yun Qi frowned and said, "City Lord, the Holy Priest knows everything. Let's leave first."

The Holy Priest is even higher than the Lord of Beast King City; they cannot be offended.

Jinwei understood this principle; at least for now, he couldn't afford to offend the Holy Priest.

"Leave one team to continue the search, the rest of you come back to the city with me."

"Yes."

……

Inside the rocky cave, Qiao Xixi braided Xiya's hair while checking Jin Lin and the others' location.

In the past two days, their location has been moving in her direction, which means they are on their way to meet up with her.

This cheered Josh up considerably.

She tucked a small flower into Xiya's hair and nodded with satisfaction, "Our Xiya is so beautiful."

Xiya smiled shyly at her, then raised her little fist and patted Qiao Xixi twice. "Oh dear, what nonsense are you talking about~"

Qiao Xixi grunted, "Wow, the merman cub is really strong!"
"Let's go to the beach and find some food."

Qiao Xixi carried the baby on her back, picked up the bamboo basket, and led Xiya out of the cave.

Xi Jing heard them leaving, turned around and looked in their direction with a slight frown.

The scent emanating from this female seemed strange to him, as if he had smelled it somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where.

She said she wanted to understand the salt fields that had been occupied by Tiger Beast City. So, who was she?

He had heard about Qiao Xixi's interactions with Xiya and the help she had given them over the past two days. He didn't know if Qiao Xixi could be trusted, so he decided to observe her further.

As soon as Qiao Xixi and Xiya walked onto the beach, they saw the seal pup that she had fought with that day.

The seal pups had several companions this time, so they weren't so afraid of Shioya.

"Look! That idiot Xiya is out here again, stealing food from her useless beast father. Let's hurry and catch all the fish beasts over there, don't let her have them."

"Damn it, I'll beat you all to a pulp."

Xiya clenched her little fists, ready to rush forward and start a fight.

Qiao Xixi quickly pulled her back, "Don't worry, I have a way to deal with them and make them afraid to say anything reckless in the future."

Xiya's big eyes were full of curiosity. She really couldn't think of any way that could be faster than a direct fight.
