Chapter 108 The Secluded Land of the Western Heron
Because Felicity is female, Yu Shaochen made sure Su Weihua wore her animal skin skirt completely covered up so that it would be easier for her to take care of her.

Su Weihua watched Yu Shaochen, who was packaging the medicine powder, her eyes fixed on his hands, without saying a word.

Yu Shaochen knew he was watching, and he also knew that he was very bored lying in bed every day, but there was nothing he could do about it.

"If you have anything to say, you can say it while I'm still here."

Su Weihua rested her cheek on her arm, pondered for a moment, and then suddenly raised her eyes: "Can I ask you for a favor?"

Yu Shaochen stopped what he was doing: "Go on."

"Come here." Su Weihua beckoned to him, pointing to her left earring, "Help me take it off."

Yu Shaochen squatted down and looked at the two earrings above, one gold and one silver.

He had noticed Su Weihua's ears long ago; only the left ear was pierced, and she wore two earrings that looked like pine needles.

While it's not uncommon for male orcs to wear earrings, it's more prevalent in the Southern Beast Plains. Male orcs in the Northern Beast Plains tend to wear armlets and waist ornaments, and some tribes prefer headdresses.

For example, Bai Qingyu always kept his hair long, and the color of his hair was very similar to that of lavender. Sometimes he would braid his hair for convenience, and he would often braid a rope made of colorful feathers into his hair. Occasionally, a few brightly colored beads would hang from the ends of his hair.

Chongzhen preferred to wear waist ornaments; Yu Shaochen saw that he had changed at least twelve of the animal skin bags that he often wore around his waist.

In addition, he would also wear something similar to a belt around his waist. Unlike the ones described in historical records, which were decorated with exquisite items such as gold and jade, Chongzhen's belt was adorned with extremely finely carved bone carvings, and some of them were even rare animal bones. Although the carving was simple, it was still quite beautiful and gorgeous if you didn't look closely.

Chang Tianchen had ornaments on his arms and wrists, all made of metals that were very similar in color to his beast-shaped scales. They were probably made from the scales he had shed, and they didn't have any complicated shapes or patterns.

The armlets and bracelets, paired with his alluring face and aggressive temperament, actually suited him perfectly, making him look wild and beautiful.

Yu Shaochen examined himself and realized that compared to these people, he lived a very simple life.

There were no ornaments on his body, and even his animal skin bag was a very simple design, filled mostly with plant seeds and some fruits that he liked to eat.

Yu Shaochen stared at his waist for a few seconds, reflecting on whether he should learn from these people and take better care of himself.
Seeing him in a daze, Su Weihua reminded him, "Take both of them off."

Yu Shaochen suddenly came to his senses, took off his earring, placed it in his palm, and asked in confusion, "Why did you take this off?"

"You went out with Bai Qingyu this time, right?"

Yu Shaochen nodded: "Yes, we're going to the eastern part of the Beast Plains."

Su Weihua: "You can discuss with him whether you can go to the vicinity of the Snow Wolf Tribe when you come back. I have collected some things and stored them in a cave in the Red Rock Ravine. The golden earring in your hand can point to it, and the silver earring is imbued with my superpower, which can allow you to enter the cave directly."

Yu Shaochen exclaimed in shock, "I thought your things had already been completely swept away."

Su Weihua lowered her eyes and said, "What you said is actually not wrong."

"The things I stored in the cave are mainly various weapons crafted using supernatural abilities. Some of them have some value, while others are completely useless. There are also a lot of ores and many beast heart stones in the cave. Take out the heart stones first, and if you see anything else you like, you can take it directly."

Yu Shaochen quickly waved his hand and said, "Then we don't need that, just the Heart Stone?"

“There’s also a black gold spear,” Su Weihua described it briefly. “That’s my backup weapon.”

Yu Shaochen: "Okay, I'll bring them back for you."

"That mark is a one-time use item. Once it's opened, you can't reseal it, so take as much as you can."

Su Weihua said with a wry smile, "Red Rock Gully also belongs to the Snow Wolf Tribe's territory, so it was only a matter of time before they discovered it."

"Are you ready?" Bai Qingyu asked from the cave entrance, without coming in.

Yu Shaochen put the two earrings into the animal skin bag: "Then I'll be going now. Tell Felicity if you need anything."

"If it's inconvenient for her, you can have her go to the tribe and find a male orc to help her."

Su Weihua said with a hint of helplessness, "You should hurry up and set off. Of course I know what to do in this kind of situation."

When Yu Shaochen went outside, Chongzhen and Bai Qingyu were already fully prepared and ready to go. The two were standing in a rather delicate position, with four or five meters between them.

Yu Shaochen asked, "Are you taking me and Chong Zhenfei with you?"

Bai Qingyu tossed the braid on her left shoulder behind her back and looked up in the direction of Hanshan: "Someone else is coming."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a blue shadow swept across the mountaintop behind them and quickly slid down onto the rocky beach.

Bai Xi stood on the boulder, waved her left wing at the three of them, and said cheerfully, "Hey, you're all here!"

"Ayu, it's been a few days. Do you miss home?"

Bai Qingyu rolled her eyes and pointed at Chong Zhen, saying, "You take him, I'll take Yu Shaochen."

Chongzhen spread his hands, saying helplessly, "I haven't offended you recently, have I?"

Bai Qingyu said calmly, "You are much heavier than Yu Shaochen, it's tiring to fly with you."

"Aren't you tired when you're flying with Ling Chengen? Her beast form is several times the size of mine."

Bai Qingyu said with a half-smile, "Bringing a partner and bringing a love rival, one is done willingly, the other..."

Chongzhen understood.

Although he didn't seem to mind them on the surface, now that Ling Chengen and Ling Xiao were gone, he immediately revealed his true colors.

“I knew it, you were just pretending to be magnanimous in front of Ling Chengen.” Chongzhen didn’t mind his double standards.

Since everyone has their own ulterior motives, who's really being virtuous?
"Let's go. We can argue on the way. Who knows how long we'll be delayed on the road."

Bai Xi looked at the three of them with a calm and composed expression, and couldn't help but sigh that she was still wise. Why did she need to find a partner? She was living such a leisurely life now. Once she had a partner, life would be full of intrigue and backstabbing, and she wouldn't be able to relax at all.

...Ling Chengen went to find Wu Zhuo early in the morning, and also took his bag with him.

Wu Zhuo needs to train now, and going out with her will give him more experience, and she can also take care of him.

The hunting team had its own mission, which was usually time-sensitive and demanding, so they couldn't take good care of a teenager like him along the way.

As Wu Zhuo sat on the back of the bag, he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "This is the first time I've ever been carried by someone else."

Ling Chengen, sitting in the front, turned around and laughed, "Bao Bao isn't a person, it's a dragon."

Wu Zhuo touched the back of the bag, his eyes fixed on the pair of large, fleshy wings: "Same as us. The bag looks very smart, and it's no different from us, except that it doesn't have a human form."

Ling Chengen, his face full of black lines, said, "Smart? You must have some misunderstanding about this guy."

Bao Bao turned around and raised her head.

Wu Zhuo looked at Ling Chengen: "What is it saying?"

Ling Chengen spread his hands: "How would I know? I don't understand its language."

Wu Zhuo raised his hand and scratched the back of his head, saying uncertainly, "I feel... it seems quite happy."

"It's quite happy every day."

With plenty of food and drink every day, and even if the prey they hunt isn't enough, she helps them replenish their supplies. How could they not be happy?

I always feel like I've raised a good-for-nothing who just sponges off his parents.

"Sister En—"

After flying for a while, Wu Zhuo suddenly called out to Ling Chengen in a low voice.

Ling Chengen turned his body and looked at Wu Zhuo, who kept his head down and didn't say anything more.

"Just say what you have to say, don't beat around the bush."

Wu Zhuo pinched his palm: "Sister En, I'm almost sixteen, and I still haven't awakened my superpowers..."

"What if I really can't awaken? Is my life over?"

"Why would you suddenly have such an idea?" Ling Chengen asked, puzzled.

Wu Zhuo frowned and said, "Beastmen with special abilities are more likely to be valued and have higher status."

"It seems to be the same in every tribe."

Instead of answering, Ling Chengen asked, "Then why were you willing to stick with me before I awakened my superpowers? Why didn't you go find those peers who had superpowers early on and have them protect you?"

Wu Zhuo scratched the back of his head sheepishly: "Because you're the most powerful among us, Sister En. Even without superpowers, it doesn't seem to affect your strength."

"So why do you still think that if you can't awaken your superpowers, your life is over?"

"If I don't have superpowers, so be it. I'll just focus on training my physique and combat skills."

"Having superpowers might allow one to reach higher levels, but in reality, most orcs who awaken superpowers remain at level five or six for their entire lives. Moreover, because they rely more on superpowers, their combat skills are far inferior to those of warriors who have not awakened superpowers."

"Like me before, even without superpowers, a level six superpowered person can still fight."

Wu Zhuo's eyes lit up instantly: "That seems to be true!"

"Sister En, how do you train?"

Ling Chengen was taken aback by his eager gaze, and stroked his chin for a moment, thinking: "Now that you've suddenly asked me this, I really haven't figured out how to answer you."

She naturally has a complete training system.

In a post-apocalyptic world, ordinary people need to have a strong physique to survive.

Otherwise, if something happens, you won't be able to escape.

How can one even talk about surviving?

In the apocalypse, not everyone has superpowers. Those without superpowers are actually more demanding of themselves.

After rigorous training, their combat capabilities should not be underestimated.

Ling Chengen rested his chin on his hand and thought for a while before saying, "How about this, when I have time, I'll make you a training plan."

Unlike her, Wu Zhuo was born with psychic abilities because she suddenly transmigrated.

At this age, Wu Zhuo still shows no signs of awakening superpowers, so it's highly likely he won't have any more.

Instead of waiting all day for awakening, it's better to seize the time to train and strive to be able to fight against warriors with superpowers after adulthood.

If you're lucky, you'll awaken.

The physical strength and combat awareness he develops through training will only make him stronger and allow him to go further.

Upon receiving her affirmative answer, Wu Zhuo immediately nodded and said, "Then you'd better hurry up, or I'll bother you every day."

Ling Chengen understood his eagerness, turned to look at the rolling mountains in front of him, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"arrive."

Looking down at the mist drifting through the mountain valleys, and the lush greenery and golden rocks, Wu Zhuo blinked and asked, "Hmm? Where are we?"

Ling Chengen pointed to the silvery-white mountain ridge not far away: "Youdi."
