Transmigrated into a wicked female raising cubs, the beast husbands are fighting over her!

Chapter 414 What's the difference between you and me?

Yunji's hands didn't stop moving. He placed the processed fish on a clean leaf and then picked up another fish.

"I've never done it before."

Qiao Xixi wasn't surprised by this answer at all. He was a high priest, and she had already heard Jin Lin and the others say that the selection criteria for a high priest were even more stringent and rigorous than those for a beast king.

Rumor has it that the high priests are orcs who can face the beast god directly and sit with the gods, so it's perfectly normal that they don't know anything about pots and pans.

"Yunji, have you seen me before?" Qiao Xixi asked casually.

Yunji paused slightly, then a faint smile appeared on his face. "Yes, I hugged you."

Now it was Qiao Xixi's turn to be stunned, "You're so old..."

Yunji suppressed the faint smile at the corner of his eyes.

"No, I mean, you saw me when I was a child?"

"Ah."

"Then, do you know why my father took me away from Beast King City back then?"

Yunji placed the second processed fish-beast on the leaves and stood up.

"You do the rest, I'll go gather firewood."

Qiao Xixi frowned as she glanced at the fish-beast that had been disposed of in a mess. Oh well, she couldn't have too high expectations of the otherworldly priest.

"Row."

Qiao Xixi skillfully processed all the fish and beasts, then took out some marinade from her space and rubbed it on the fish and beast meat before wrapping them in leaves. She then tied the leaves together with vines, transformed into her beast form, and carried the bound fish and beast meat on her back to the wooden house.

As soon as she left, a dark red mist rose from the river. The mist condensed into the shape of a Kunlin, which looked at Qiao Xixi's departing figure and tried to fly over. However, before it could touch Qiao Xixi, it was as if there was an invisible barrier in front of it, which slammed the mist away.

"Damn Yunji, I'll see how long your beast soul energy can last!"

Back in the cabin, Yunji had already lit a fire.

Qiao Xixi carried the fish-beast over, dug a pit next to it, threw in the fish-beast meat wrapped in fine paste, and then placed burning firewood on top of it.

"Oh dear, I forgot to catch some fresh bugs for you."

Yunji glanced at the roasted insects he had thrown into the fire, now burned to charcoal, and a moment of tension appeared in the corner of his eye.

"No need, I'll eat fish and beast meat."

"Really? Don't push yourself."

"No need to force it!"

"That's fine."

Qiao Xixi had worked all afternoon, and the little bit of meat she ate in the morning had long been digested. After the fish and beast meat was roasted, she ate the whole thing, and even Yun Ji ate quite a bit.

"The rest can be kept in the fire to keep warm and can still be eaten tomorrow."

As it was getting dark, Qiao Xixi stood up.

"where to?"

"Although this place is relatively safe, I'm still not at ease, so I'll set up some traps."

Yunji didn't stop her and let her do as she pleased.

When Qiao Xixi returned after setting up the trap, she saw Yun Ji still sitting by the fire. The orange firelight shone on him, and she wondered if it was just her imagination, but she felt that the color on his body had faded, as if he might disappear at any moment.

Qiao Xixi subconsciously reached out and touched his shoulder.

Yunji froze, his breath caught in his throat.

His clear, gentle voice carried a hint of hoarseness. "What's wrong?"

Qiao Xixi scratched at his feathered coat; it was very smooth and seemed to be full of life. It seemed she was too tired and her eyes were playing tricks on her.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to see if you were a monster in disguise."

Cloud Traces: ...

"Go to sleep, I'll keep watch tonight."

Without a second thought, Qiao Xixi refused. At this moment, she had no concept of female priority. Yun Ji was injured and needed to help save his father beast, so she had to let him recover his strength as much as possible. "I'm not sleepy, you go to sleep." As she spoke, she didn't give him a chance to refuse and pulled him into the house by his feather robe.

"Your body hasn't fully recovered yet, so please rest well these next few days. I'll stay by your side."

Yunji looked at the hand that was firmly holding hers, her light-colored eyes momentarily stunned. "You...you're going to protect me?"

Qiao Xixi nodded, "Yes, I'll stay by your side."

Qiao Xixi pulled him to sit on the bed. "Don't underestimate me. Besides what you taught me, I have other skills. So, don't worry about me being here."

After saying that, Qiao Xixi turned around and was about to leave the house.

Will you stay by my side forever?

"Of course, I won't leave, don't worry."

Qiao Xixi didn't turn around, and therefore didn't see Yun Ji's absent-minded eyes as she spoke, "No matter what happens, you won't leave?"

Once outside, Qiao Xixi didn't dare to really rest. She took out the animal skin blanket, spread it outside the door, and sat on it, intending to close her eyes and rest, but she couldn't close them for a long time.

With Jin Lin and the others not around, and in the open air, she couldn't sleep at all. Even with her eyes closed, she felt insecure.

Qiao Xixi sat cross-legged and began to review what she had learned from the files.

But before long, a wave of drowsiness washed over her, and her eyelids began to droop.

She tried to open her eyes, but the drowsiness overwhelmed her like a tidal wave.

"You actually let a female guard outside, Yunji, you're getting more and more useless."

Yunming, that monster's voice.

Qiao Xixi opened her eyes and was met with pitch-black darkness. But soon, the darkness was dispelled by a strange dark red halo, which gradually solidified into a human shape and finally appeared in front of her as a Kunlin.

"Yun Ming".

Kunlin smiled at him; it was still the same face, but the temperament was completely different.

"It seems Yunji has already told you about me."

Qiao Xixi stood up and looked at him coldly, "I do know you're a monster."

"Leave here now, and I might spare your life."

As Yunming spoke, he looked toward the wooden house behind her.

Qiao Xixi's expression was cold and aloof.

"what do you want to do?"

"Of course, kill Yunji. As long as you leave now, I won't kill you."

After saying that, he even stepped aside to make way for Qiao Xixi.

Qiao Xixi looked surprised. "You...you really want to let me go?"

"Of course, I feel very sorry for females."

Qiao Xixi pursed her lips, seemingly struggling, "Okay, I'll go."

Seeing Qiao Xixi about to leave, Yun Ming's smile grew even more maniacal.

"Don't you care whether Yunji lives or dies?"

Qiao Xixi raised her chin. "Who is he to me? Why should I care?"

"Hahahaha, good, very good, let's go, female."

Qiao Xixi rushed into the woods without even turning her head.

Inside the wooden house, Yunji stood calmly by the door, listening to Qiao Xixi's departing footsteps, a strange emotion flashing quickly in his light-colored pupils.

"Yunji, did you hear that? In the end, everyone in this world will abandon you. What difference is there between you and me? Hahahaha."

The black mist burst through the wooden door at high speed, transforming into sharp claws in the darkness and piercing straight towards Yunji's heart.
