Looking at the three dog-headed men emitting a foul stench, You Li frowned slightly.

Normally there are only one or two, so it's rare to see three of them together, but we can still manage.

These kobolds were short in stature, growling, with bits of rubble still clinging to their claws. Before the monsters could react, Youli swung her spear, sweeping it horizontally and forcing them back.

"Hurry up and get inside the cave! The blood of these monsters is highly poisonous; even a little bit will cause you to rot. Don't get in my way!"

Looking at these bizarre dog-headed figures, Wang Yan felt a chill run down his spine. These things were just too ugly! He nodded emphatically, having a clear understanding of his own abilities. He quickly retreated a few steps into the cave, but didn't go all the way in. He simply crouched quietly at the entrance, ready to deal with any unexpected situations.

"Awooooo!"

You Li has an excellent figure, standing nearly 1.75 meters tall. Facing these kobolds, it was a situation where the taller one was attacking the shorter one. After several rounds, all three kobolds were covered in bloody welts and could not advance an inch.

"Pfft—"

A muffled thud was followed by a kobold's piercing scream. You Li had changed her whipping motion to a thrust, catching the kobold off guard. The thrust pierced the pale skin, leaving a bloody hole. You Li then impaled the kobold on the spear, raised it high, and with a powerful swing, threw it off the cliff.

"That's amazing..."

You Li's agile skills stunned Wang Yan. She killed a kobold without any hesitation. Sure enough, you really can't do the duty of keeping watch without some skills.

She quickly killed one of them. Because these dog-headed creatures were relatively small, Youli was quite adept at dealing with two of them. In just a moment, she pierced both dog heads with her spear and kicked them off the cliff.

Tonight's crisis was easily resolved by You Li. Wang Yan, who witnessed everything, couldn't help but swallow hard. To be honest, if he were to deal with these three kobolds, it would probably be a life-or-death situation. Although he also has the passive ability of [Agility], it only increases the evasion rate. Moreover, according to You Li, the blood of the beasts contains deadly poison. Wang Yan asked himself honestly, there was absolutely no way he could defeat these three wolves without taking any damage.

In small settlements like those of the little beast girls, one attack from a strange beast per night is the most they experience. So, there shouldn't be any more attacks in the latter half of the night. Wang Yan felt reassured and returned to the cave. Having experienced an attack from such a monster, he would rather die than leave this place!

-

Wang Yan didn't need to be woken up by the squeaking sound today. Thanks to the effects of efficient sleep, even if he fell asleep in the middle of the night, Wang Yan could still wake up with the little beast girls. But to be fair, seeing them all naked and dressed was quite a sight for Wang Yan.

Yesterday, Zhuohua had already guessed that autumn was approaching, and the beast girls were assigned tasks. Zhuohua asked Zhizhi, Huayue, and Yingluo to gather wild fruits, while Wang Yan followed Zhuohua without being told what they were going to do, only that he should keep up.

The animal hide looked a little tight on Zhuo Hua's petite body, and her slightly pink skin shimmered softly in the sunlight. Wang Yan followed closely behind her. Fortunately, he was blessed by the sun, which gave him an extra boost. Otherwise, Wang Yan would have had a hard time catching up with her.

"Sister Zhuohua, where are we going?"

Wang Yan couldn't help but ask a question, and Zhuo Hua chuckled softly, her enormous salamander tail curling up:

"You'll see once you follow along."

Wang Yan was somewhat puzzled by this. He accompanied Zhuo Hua on a long mountain path until noon, when they finally arrived at an extremely secluded open space.

With his hands on his knees, Wang Yan was panting heavily. Seeing him like this, Zhuo Hua couldn't help but smile, helping him slowly sit down on a rock, and said with a faint smile:

"Is that not enough?"

Those five short words instantly ignited Wang Yan's fighting spirit. He straightened his chest, completely unlike his previous exhausted and panting appearance, which seemed like a show of bravado.

"Who says I can't do it? What's wrong with me?"

Zhuohua didn't expose him. She slowly got up. In this small open space, there was a pink tree, but it wasn't like a cherry blossom tree. Its pink canopy was like a whole, a strange existence similar to smoke and clouds. She came to the side of the trunk and stood on tiptoe as if she was looking for something.

After searching for a long time, Zhuohua finally plucked a cherry-sized fruit from the cloud-like canopy, carefully put it in her pocket, and then went to Wang Yan's side and said to him:

"Okay, let's go."

"???"

Did you really travel all this way just to pick a cherry? What was the point of asking him to come along?!

It could be said that Zhuohua's behavior was strange in every way, and Wang Yan had no idea what she wanted to do.

Zhuohua merely smiled, her cheeks slightly flushed, ignoring Wang Yan's bewildered expression, and said:

"When Yingluo ran into you before, she was on her way to fetch water for the house, but she left the bucket at the sink. Now we're running low on water, so let's go get some."

Following Zhuohua's footsteps, after several hours of trekking, Wang Yan arrived at the pool again. Last time, he had left in a hurry and hadn't had time to observe it properly before Yingluo grabbed his wrist and pulled him away. Now that he was back in this place, he really had to take a good look at what was going on here.

Unfortunately, the pool turned out to be just an ordinary pool, which made Wang Yanbai very happy.

If it were a portal, that would be amazing, allowing him to freely travel between two worlds. Just thinking about it is incredible.

Behind Wang Yan, Zhuo Hua had already collected the wooden bucket that Yingluo had left behind, filled it with water, and placed it aside. Seeing Wang Yan lying in the pool, she smiled slightly and then directly put the "cherry" she had just picked into her mouth.

A captivating fragrance wafted from Zhuo Hua's pearly teeth as she silently approached Wang Yan from behind, gently patting his shoulder and startling him.

"You scared me to death, Sister Zhuohua! How come you walk so quietly?"

Wang Yan didn't notice anything unusual about Zhuo Hua at this moment. She only saw Zhuo Hua bend over, gather her long, smooth pink hair, and tie it into a ponytail.

"Do you remember what I told you before? Come on... to teacher training?"

Pink mist filled the surroundings, making Wang Yan's heart itch, but having witnessed Yingluo's example, Wang Yan simply assumed that Zhuohua just wanted to sleep.

"Sister Zhuohua, isn't this a bit inappropriate? It'll be dark soon, why don't we talk about it later tonight?"

Are you kidding me? You've already taken the love potion, and now you're saying you want to leave?

Zhuohua didn't want to pay attention; she was just informing him, not discussing it with Wang Yan. Her pink lips met his, and the sudden kiss made Wang Yan momentarily confused.

"Ughhhh!!"
