Chapter 167 You Don’t Want to Be Tangled
After the relationship was officially confirmed, Xiaoguai became obviously much clingier.
In the first two days after they confirmed their relationship, Xiaoguai wished he could stick to her forty-eight hours a day. He was even more restless at night, making her unable to get out of bed for two days. The old marks on her body that had just disappeared were replaced by new ones the next day. Even the ointment sent by Changze was of no use.
On the third day, things finally calmed down a bit, perhaps because they thought that this was the last day of the couple-forming ceremony. Changze and Eling had not yet formed a couple in the first two days, but by the third day, the matter was already settled. After all, if they didn't seize the opportunity on the last day, the blessing festival would be over.
Xiaoguai also knew that Eling had been waiting for this day. He had already asked for it in the past two days. He had no reason not to let her go on this day, otherwise Eling would really be angry with him.
E Ling got up early that day and changed into new clothes she had just made this year before going out. She looked dazzling with just a little dressing up, and people couldn't take their eyes off her.
Although Xiaoguai felt jealous, he could do nothing about E Ling, so he had to pick her up as if to claim his sovereignty and said, "Sister, I'll carry you over. There are too many dangerous males outside. If you go alone, you'll be easily targeted by those annoying flies."
"Ling, we'll go with you too."
Xuan Ming and Mo Lin followed in tacit understanding.
The pair-forming ceremony has reached the third day, and there are not as many people as in the previous two days. Although E Ling did not go out and did not know about the grand occasion of the previous two days, Mo Lin said that the road leading to the central square was blocked by orcs who were looking at each other, and it was difficult to even move a step when going out.
What's even more terrifying is that those males who are not in a relationship are like hungry wolves. When they see a high-quality female, they rush forward and compete to show their masculinity in front of the female.
The favored male was taken home by the female for mating that night, causing the air in the Beast City to be filled with a mixed scent of passion after mating for the past few days.
Today is not so bad, after all, a group of orcs had been screened out in the past two days, and the remaining ones have not yet found a female home.
But the males who survived to this day often become even more crazy, and they are eager to seize the last day's chance to mate with the few remaining high-quality females. This is especially true for some males from small tribes. After all, this is one of the few opportunities to change their living conditions by mate with females from the Beast City or large tribes.
So Xiaoguai and Mo Lin were very worried about E Ling going out alone. A beautiful female like her who is extremely fertile would be easily targeted by those hungry males!
Sure enough, just as they went out and were still some distance away from the central square, some single males noticed Eling. When they saw Eling for the first time, their eyes widened, like wolves that had been hungry for three days seeing delicious meat, their eyes lit up, and they swarmed up to Eling to court her.
Xiaoguai exuded a cold pressure and hugged E Ling tightly in his arms, "Get out!"
Some orcs of lower levels became discouraged when they saw that E Ling had such a powerful partner, who was just recruited. They were frightened by Xiaoguai's threats and dared not move forward.
But there are always some who are hoping to get the favor of females and are not afraid of death. They rush up and block E Ling's way. They can't wait to take off the pitiful amount of cloth on their bodies and show their masculine charm in front of E Ling, hoping that E Ling will like them.
Although there are indeed a few males with good bodies here, her partner is still there, and she can't just stare at him.
Moreover, the animal world is different from the modern world. In modern times, as long as both parties are willing, they can look and touch each other without any responsibility.
It's not like that here. If she looks at them a little longer, the males will act like they have been rewarded. Not only will they show themselves to her even harder, but they will also pester her to take responsibility. The few she has now are enough for her to handle. If there are a few more, she will die in bed sooner or later.
Eling had no choice but to hug Xiaoguai's neck tightly and bury her head in the crook of Xiaoguai's neck like an ostrich, pretending to be dead.
E'ling's dependence greatly rewarded Xiaoguai. He was more and more reluctant to let go while holding her. Originally, he was a spiritual beast and should not hurt orcs casually. But these flies were really annoying. His sister had already clearly expressed her rejection reaction, but they still swarmed up and would not let his sister leave. It was really like a spiritual beast that did not show its power, so they thought he was a sick cat?
Xiaoguai was just about to pick out a few of the most violent males to make an example of them, but the orcs blocking E Ling were suddenly pushed away by the soldiers who came to inspect the order.
The warriors drove the clinging males aside, leaving a path for people to pass.
Lu Shi came over and said politely, "Beautiful female, are you going to the central square? Why don't you come with me? I have soldiers patrolling the city to protect me, which will be much more convenient."
Hearing Lu Shi's voice, E Ling raised her head. Looking at the Lu Shi in front of her, who was smiling in a friendly manner, E Ling frowned.
She had not forgotten how Lu Shi had targeted Nagasawa before, and for a moment she looked wary.
Lu Shi smiled and said, "Don't be too nervous, beautiful female. I won't be as rude as those males."
"No need, I have a partner to accompany me, so I won't trouble Your Highness." E Ling said coldly, patted Xiaoguai's shoulder, and motioned him to take her away.
Lu Shi calmly blocked Xiaoguai's way, his eyes fell on E Ling's hand, and when he saw an extra animal pattern on her finger, he whispered in a voice that only they could hear clearly:
"I grew up in the north and have heard many legends about spirit beasts, but this is the first time I've seen a spirit beast transform into a human and form a partnership with an orc..."
"Lu Shi, what on earth do you want to do?"
E Ling frowned deeply and interrupted Lu Shi's words.
There are many people here, and E Ling doesn't want so many people to know that Xiaoguai is a transformed spirit beast.
After all, this incident was too rare. Although orcs would have some respect for spirit beasts, there was no need to publicize it so as not to attract orcs with ulterior motives.
Moreover, as long as Xiaoguai does not transform on the spot, and the few of them who know the truth do not tell others, ordinary people will not be able to detect Xiaoguai's race, and naturally will not know Xiaoguai's identity.
But what was Lu Shi trying to hint at when he said this to her in front of so many people? If she didn't go with him, was he going to threaten her to reveal Xiaoguai's identity?
"Beautiful female, you are too hostile to me. You are the female I like, how can I bear to do anything to you? I just want to ask you to do me a favor and go with me. You don't want to be entangled by annoying males along the way, do you? And at this rate, you may not be able to see Nagasawa until dark. If these males go crazy, who knows what they will do."
Lu Shi glanced to both sides. More and more single males were attracted by the smell emitted by E Ling and gathered here. Pairs of wolf-like and tiger-like eyes stared at E Ling as if they were stalking prey. If it weren't for the warriors brought by Lu Shi to stop them, they would have rushed forward and eaten E Ling alive.
