129: Arriving at the wasteland mining area

Three Beast King Priests were strictly escorting them.

Xuan Jin unhurriedly led Nan Zhisui along.

Chi Xiao was not there, White Fox was not there, and Lan Xing was not there. The cubs were all not there either!

The Little Female was obediently held in his arms.

For Xuan Jin, this time was like paradise!

A Snake Beastman should not live any kind of Family life; he should possess the Little Female all to himself!

When passing by a few wild beasts, this Seven-Patterned Snake King even coolly dealt with one of the beasts in passing.

Under the gaze of the three Beast King Priests, Xuan Jin picked up some wood, asked Nan Zhisui for the Flint, and then skillfully started a fire to roast meat.

He was also diligently learning how to take care of the Little Female, okay?

The three Beast King Priests: "..."

Ying Li flew down from the sky and landed beside Nan Zhisui, but Xuan Jin's large tail blocked him, directly separating Nan Zhisui and Ying Li.

Ying Li: "..."

"Xuan Jin, are you starting a fire? What are you starting a fire for?"

Xuan Jin, who had absolutely no self-awareness as a beast prisoner, sharpened the wooden sticks, moistened them with water, skewered the meat, and then unhurriedly began to roast it.

"I am different from you single Males. I have a female master, and my female master is hungry." The Cold-Blooded Snake Beastman's brows and eyes lifted in a devilishly charming way.

Nan Zhisui sat beside Xuan Jin naturally. She looked up and said innocently: "I'm hungry. Are you not going to let me eat?"

Ying Li, Hu Qian, and Bao He: "..."

Hu Qian said: "Ying Li is asking, how do you know how to start a fire?"

In the entire Beast World, there were not many beastmen who were not afraid of fire, yet this Snake Beastman was not only unafraid of fire but also knew how to use it.

Xuan Jin replied, "What's difficult about this? Every beast in my home knows how, even the five-year-old cubs know how."

The eyelids of the few priests twitched.

Ying Li said: "Don't burn the Little Female."

Xuan Jin readily handed the roasted meat to the Little Female beside him.

Nan Zhisui took out cumin powder from her waist, sprinkled it on the roasted meat, and began to eat it in large bites.

Although Xuan Jin was still obsessed with feeding her meat, he was no longer obsessed with raw meat, and his roasting technique had improved very quickly.

The fresh roasted meat was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, dripping with oil with every bite, fatty but not greasy.

Delicious.

Watching the Little Female eat so happily, the three priests felt a bit greedy.

Hu Qian asked: "Xuan Jin, can we take the meat you don't want from that prey to eat?"

Xuan Jin turned his head, the faint smile on his face disappearing, and he said coldly: "As Eight-Patterned Priests, can you not hunt for yourselves?"

Bao He said: "Is this a question of hunting? This is about not being wasteful. Can you alone eat such a large piece of prey?"

Xuan Jin's eyes were cold and wicked: "You are escorting my female master to the Mining Area, and you still want me to give you meat to eat?"

If he wasn't using these three Eight-Patterned Priests as bodyguards, he would have ditched them long ago.

Xuan Jin picked up the last skewer of roasted meat and continued to feed the Little Female.

Nan Zhisui narrowed her eyes and patted his hand: "Why don't you eat it yourself?"

"I want to feed you."

"I'm not used to it." She politely declined.

"Get used to it slowly." The Male Cold-Blooded Snake Beastman leaned closer to her and said, "Will you?"

"No."

Nan Zhisui still didn't let him feed her; she snatched the meat skewer and ate it naturally.

Yet Xuan Jin wasn't angry at all; his eyes still held a faint smile that was rarely seen on ordinary days.

While eating meat, he glanced at Nan Zhisui. After finishing the meat, his large tail curled around Nan Zhisui, holding her in his arms like a child. He turned his head and commanded the three Eight-Patterned Priests behind him: "Let's go."

He took the lead and walked in front, while the three Eight-Patterned Priests looked at each other.

Why did it feel like these two weren't going to serve a sentence, but rather going on a vacation?

Also, what was up with that tone of commanding them?

...

The road from the coast to the Wasteland was not easy to travel.

Nan Zhisui watched as the lush forest gradually became barren, subsequently turning into a desolate desert.

The scorching sun here baked the gravel until it turned white, and quicksand drifted between the cracks of the rocks.

The yellow sand came rushing towards them, and the rough wind scraped against her eyes, making them ache, while Nan Zhisui's mouth and nose began to feel dry.

Xuan Jin took a piece of his own snake slough and made a veil and headgear for Nan Zhisui to wear.

He still held her in his arms, and she buried her head into his chest to avoid the wind and sand.

"Are you okay?" Xuan Jin asked in a low voice.

"I'm fine. Are you tired?"

Xuan Jin: "Are you feeling sorry for me?"

"Not at all."

"Oh." Xuan Jin curled his lips and said, "I'm quite tired."

Nan Zhisui: "..." I don't believe a word you say.

Except for Ying Li, who was very accustomed to the environment here, the other two Eight-Patterned Priests were clearly struggling with the environment, and their speed had actually slowed down.

Hu Qian shouted: "Xuan Jin, wait a moment!"

Xuan Jin gave a mocking laugh; he didn't wait for them at all and forged ahead.

Bao He said speechlessly: "How is this like going to serve a sentence? This is clearly rushing to be reincarnated!"

Hu Qian was panting from exhaustion, "Why are the two of them so eager? I always feel like I'm not the priest escorting them, but rather the priest protecting them..."

Bao He: "This is the strangest experience I've had since I started going on missions."

Hu Qian really regretted it; he even felt that it didn't matter if this grudge went unavenged.

Hu Qian: "Forget it. Let's just hurry up and deliver them, and this annoying mission will be over."

Bao He and Hu Qian were slowly chasing after them from behind.

They were all Beast Kings, so their movement speed was not slow.

Nan Zhisui and her group finally arrived at the Western Desert Mining Area.

She jumped down from Xuan Jin, and when she looked up at this desolate Mining Area, the beastmen in the Mining Area bowed to her respectfully.

Heavens, a Female escorted by four Beast Kings; this person must be a big shot sent by Myriad Beast City to inspect the work!

Such an awesome big shot must be treated with respect!

"Greetings, My Lord."

Hu Qian, who followed behind, said speechlessly and loudly: "Are your eyes blind? This is a Guilty Female who committed the great sin of killing a female! She is to be punished by mining in the Mining Area for one month!"

"A Guilty Female who committed the great sin of killing a female?" The beastmen in the Mining Area were shocked.

"Yes, she is a Guilty Female!"

If she is a Guilty Female, why are you Beast Kings acting so polite?

Besides, this Female and this Snake Beastman Male seem to be in quite good condition.

Instead, it's you three Myriad Beast City Priests who look particularly disheveled.

This doesn't look like an escort at all!

Hu Qian was already too depressed to speak.

Bao He said: "What nonsense are you spouting? Just do what you're told! Hurry up and register this Female, then assign her a mine cave, and she can start working."

"Yes, yes, yes." The beastmen of the Mining Area hurriedly handled the procedures with Bao He and Hu Qian, then led Nan Zhisui into the Mining Area.

Here, it was full of beastmen from the Beast World who had committed various crimes.

On this desolate land, their skin was tanned dark and shiny, and sweat dripped onto the ground.

There were quite a few beastmen serving sentences in the Mining Area, but at a glance, they were all Males; there were hardly any Females to be seen.

Therefore, when Nan Zhisui walked in, she attracted the attention of many Males.

Many Males put down their hoes and looked over.

"A Female has arrived."

"Is it a big shot from Myriad Beast City?"

"She looks clean and tidy; it must be a big shot from Myriad Beast City."

"Look, she's been assigned to the Crystal Mining Area. Is she a Guilty Female?"

A few Lizard Beastmen who were mining and watching the show here opened their mouths in shock when they saw Xuan Jin.

"It's Lord Xuan Jin!!"

"Why has Lord Xuan Jin come to the Mining Area?"

I read the comments yesterday.

Ah, it turns out everyone's favorite is actually Chi Xiao...

Xing really hesitated for a while about whether to change the outline, but later thought it better to just follow my own ideas.

It seems Xing cannot manage to treat everyone equally, *sweat*.
