After transmigrating, she became the most beloved beast in the world.

Chapter 105 The Destructive Snake Ink

"Cough cough cough," Chu Xinyao choked on the seawater and coughed for a while before her breathing gradually calmed down and she looked around.

"We... cough cough, why didn't we go back?"

"What you did just now was really dangerous." The man gently patted her back to help her catch her breath.

"Then why didn't you contact the Beast God like before?" Since you knew it was dangerous, why didn't you seize the opportunity to go back?

Chu Xinyao frowned, utterly puzzled. Her voice was urgent; she longed to find a way back.

The man sighed, his eyes filled with helplessness: "I...I did think about it, but the Beast God didn't give me a reply." How could the will of the Beast God be swayed by a fallen beast like him?

Chu Xinyao fell silent, knowing that he had done his best.

She calmed down. Now was not the time for blame; she needed to find a new plan, a way to get her back safely.

"What should we do next?" She didn't want to give up; she was determined to find her way home.

The man was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Let's find a safe place to rest first!"

"Where is there any safe place here?" The surrounding area was desolate, and there was indeed no place to shelter from the wind and rain.

The man pointed to a small hill in the distance: "There's a cave over there; we can go there to take shelter."

Chu Xinyao nodded, knowing they had no better choice. She followed the man step by step toward the cave.

The cave wasn't large, but it was big enough for the two of them to fit in.

The man gathered some dry grass and twigs, scratched the stone with his paws, and quickly started a fire. Chu Xinyao sat by the fire, enjoying the warmth it brought.

"Why don't you change your clothes first?" The man looked at Chu Xinyao, whose curves were fully revealed because of her soaked clothes, picked up the animal skin that Chu Xinyao had used before, and handed it to her.

His gaze was gentle, without the slightest disrespect.

Chu Xinyao hesitated for a moment, then nodded. If she continued to wear wet clothes, she might get sick. She didn't know what the purpose of these clothes woven from mermaid silk was; they were transparent, didn't keep her warm, and weren't waterproof either.

The man turned around and surveyed the cave entrance, giving her some privacy.

Chu Xinyao quickly took off her soaking wet clothes and took out a dry feather robe from her spatial storage to put on. Of all the clothes she had, the feather robe was the most convenient—lightweight, warm, and most importantly, waterproof.

After she changed her clothes, the man slowly returned to the campfire. He felt extremely uncomfortable when he smelled the unfamiliar scent of the male orc emanating from the feathered robe.

Does she have a partner?

Chu Xinyao gazed at the flickering firelight, her thoughts drifting far away.

She hadn't seen her cubs and her beast mate for several days. She wondered how they were doing, and how worried they would be if they found out she was missing.

The atmosphere inside the cave was extremely tense. The giant white tiger, transformed from Hu Xiao, pinned She Mo to the ground, his rage almost igniting the air. His voice, like thunder, was filled with incomprehension: "She Mo, if you want to target me, then target me! Why did you collude with outsiders to kidnap Yao Yao?"

Snake Ink was pinned down and unable to move. A look of panic flashed in his eyes as he tried to deny it, saying, "I didn't."

Although the voice was firm, it sounded somewhat powerless under the oppressive roar of the tiger.

"You still say you didn't? People saw you making the deal." He Yu was also furious, his eyes sharp as knives. If it weren't for the few small snakes he was holding in his arms, and to avoid hurting them, he would have rushed over and attacked She Mo long ago.

Shemo's face turned pale. He knew how weak and powerless his explanation would seem in this situation, but he still insisted: "I really didn't. I was just unhappy that you were forming a couple, but how could I have someone kidnap Yao?"

His voice was filled with pain; his feelings for Chu Xinyao were genuine, and he could never do anything to hurt his lover.

A flicker of doubt crossed Tiger Roar's eyes, and his grip loosened slightly, but his suspicions didn't completely disappear: "If you really didn't, then what's going on? Why would someone have seen you trading with outsiders?"

“I know you won’t believe me, but I really didn’t participate in any kidnapping of Yao. As for those so-called transactions, I was just exchanging some things with them.”

"What is it?" At that crucial moment, what did Snake Ink exchange for?

Snake Ink's face stiffened, and he shut his mouth and said nothing more.

"At this point, you still won't speak? What else do you want to do?" Tiger Roar roared angrily. Under these circumstances, Snake Ink's silence was undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire. Tiger Roar raised his right claw and slashed at Snake Ink's face.

Several bloody marks immediately appeared on Shemo's face, and blood seeped from the wounds, running down her cheeks and dripping onto the ground.

The little snake cubs in He Yu's arms were heartbroken to see their male father injured, and they began to wriggle restlessly.

"Don't move, we're saving your mother," Crane Feather said to the baby snakes.

"Don't move, everyone. The father beasts won't harm the females or the males. Let's observe first." The snake hissed twice to quiet its brothers and sisters.

"Waaah, Second Sister, is Mommy really alright? Why can't I sense her anymore?" Snake Little Eight's voice trembled. The sensing distance between her and Chu Xinyao was 10 kilometers. As long as she was about 1 kilometer away from Chu Xinyao, she could return to the nurturing space between Chu Xinyao's eyebrows. But now, she couldn't sense Chu Xinyao at all, which made her feel unprecedented panic.

Snake Xiao Ba's worries were like a needle, pricking the hearts of all the snakes present.

"Snake Ink, what have you done? Don't forget, you still have a nest of snake eggs with Yao Yao. Even if you don't want Yao Yao anymore, do you not even want your own cubs?" Tiger Roar really couldn't understand Snake Ink's behavior.

All the snake cubs stared at the two of them in shock.

“I,” Snake Ink said in a hoarse voice, “changed to a different medicine.”

"Medicine? What medicine? Why are you changing your medicine?" Hu Xiao pressed.

"I planted the drug on the cliff to disrupt your marriage ceremony." Now that things had come to this, Shemo had no choice but to reveal his plan. "But the deer-tribe beastman who kidnapped Yao was really not my doing. I just wanted to disrupt your marriage ceremony and avenge the day before."

Tiger Roar was furious and punched Snake Ink several times in the face.

"So it was you who brought the wild fat beasts here." Those wild fat beasts messed up the place he had carefully arranged, and it was also these wild fat beasts that caused them to lose the opportunity to track Chu Xinyao.

"Alright, no matter how much you hit him, it won't work. We still need to find Xin'er." He Yu knew that the most important thing now was to find Chu Xinyao.

Tiger Roar stopped punching, his breathing rapid and his chest heaving. As his anger subsided, he transformed back into human form, crouching down to the side, his face unable to conceal his worry: "But how do we know where they've taken Yao Yao?"

"That's a question for you to answer." He Yu stepped forward, looking down at She Mo, who was lying on the ground looking disheveled.
