Chapter 161 Deterioration of Relationship 2
A deep sense of loss emerged in Chi Lang's eyes. The ears and tail that had just stood up drooped down completely again, almost hanging to the ground. He remained kneeling on one knee in front of Xue Huan. The setting sun on the horizon shone on him, making his lonely figure look particularly long and narrow.
Xuehua became more and more excited as she spoke. She pointed at a male tiger and said, "It's you. Do you want to be my partner?!"
The air pressure around Chi Lang became increasingly low.
The tiger male was Chi Lang's subordinate. He saw that something was wrong and Xue Hua was obviously angry. Chi Lang had taken good care of him. Even if he was ecstatic, he didn't dare to nod. He could only curl his tail and say, "Your Highness, please let me go..."
"You! You are such an ungrateful person!"
Xue Hua glared at him, then pointed at a level 4 wolf male next to her and said arrogantly, "Then you, if you marry me, I will make you my number one beast husband!"
The wolf male was flattered. "Really? Your Highness, I..."
Before he could finish his words, his companion next to him hit him on the head to wake him up.
Everyone knows that Her Highness the Saint is furious right now, and she randomly picked a male as a partner just to strike a blow at Chi Lang. Don't rush towards her, because in the end, when Her Highness the Saint has calmed down, the male she randomly picked as a partner will become the one who is disliked.
The wolf male came to his senses and quickly said, "Your Highness, I already have a female I like."
"……roll!"
Xue Hua was furious. She turned around and glared at Chi Lang, her eyes blazing with anger. "Are you satisfied with this now?!"
"No, I didn't..."
Chi Lang stammered, truly experiencing what it meant to be unable to defend oneself.
Xue Huan didn't want to pay attention to anything Chi Lang said. She turned around and walked away, but she stepped on the slippery river bank and fell down without any preparation.
Xuehuan screamed and almost fell into the river. Chilang rushed forward and pulled Xuehuan into his arms, but he himself fell beside the fire due to inertia, and a large area of his tail and back were burned by the bonfire. Chilang groaned, hugged Xuehuan tightly and protected her in his arms, without letting her get hurt at all.
"Captain, your back!!"
The tiger male who had just been named by Xuehuan exclaimed when he saw a large area of burnt hair on Chilang's back and the red skin burned by the fire.
Chi Lang pushed Xue Huan away and asked her to stay away from the fire. He stood up as if nothing had happened, said "It's okay", and looked at Xue Huan with concern, nervously checking whether she was injured.
Xuehuan was still in shock. She looked up and saw the burns on Chilang's back. The shocking scars made Xuehuan's eyes twitch violently, and an indescribable feeling spread in her heart.
She pushed Chi Lang away.
"Go away. I don't need your concern. You should take care of yourself first! It's so ugly to make yourself look like this... Don't blame me later!"
Having said that, Xuehuan got up and ran away.
Chi Lang looked at Xue Huan's back, deep hurt spreading wildly in his eyes.
Only later did he realize the burning pain coming from his back.
But what hurts more than the bright red scar is the piercing pain in the heart.
E Ling, who was not far away, watched the whole process, frowned, and said to Mo Lin and the others: "Wait here for me, I'll go see Xue Hua."
Xuehuan's mood wasn't right, and Eling was afraid that she might do something out of excitement.
Moreover, it is not a good idea for Xuehuan and Chilang to have such a bad relationship. What if Chilang is stubborn and blames everything on Changze, and then becomes hostile to Changze? That would be bad.
Although it seems that Eling and Changze have stayed out of this matter so far and it has turned into a private matter between Xuehuan and Chilang, in reality, Eling and Changze are not completely separated.
She and Nagasawa are going to be a couple soon, and she doesn't want to attract strange looks and gossip because of this matter after they get married.
And even if we take a step back, can Changze and Xuehuan really completely sever their relationship?
For public purposes, as the second elder, Changze certainly needs to have a friendly relationship with Xuehuan's father, the first elder, so that the two of them can better work together for the Beast King.
Personally, Changze is still the master who teaches Xuehuan the healing arts, and there is no love between them. However, the friendship between the master and the apprentice for so many years cannot be easily severed by one thing or a few words.
Mo Lin glanced at the sky and said with some worry: "A Ling, it's getting dark soon. I'm worried about you going alone."
"Ling, how about I go with you?" Xuan Ming also suggested.
E Ling shook her head. "Ming, don't go. Your identity is already somewhat sensitive in the north. Xue Huan will probably not be in a good mood when she sees you."
Due to Xuanming's race and identity, he had to be more cautious than others when staying in the Northern Beast City. Sometimes, Xuanming seldom went out to avoid suspicion. This prayer festival was also because it was rare and lively, and there were many orcs coming from all over the world. The tolerance of the north was the greatest at this time, so Xuanming would accompany her out without any worries.
E Ling caught a glimpse of Yin Chen's tall figure and felt that there was no one more suitable than him.
"Yin Chen, please come with me."
Yin Chen was a little flattered. Although he only said "OK", his wolf tail had already betrayed him. The tail shaking up and down expressed his excitement.
"Mo Lin, Ming, I'll be back soon. And Xiaoguai, you and Mo Lin wait for me here, okay?"
Eling was also worried that Xiaoguai would make a fuss and clamor for him to accompany her. After all, Xiaoguai was the clingy type and had a strong possessiveness, so it was not surprising that he would express himself in this way.
But strangely, Xiaoguai was too quiet.
Facing E Ling's choice, Xiao Guai just nodded, glanced at Yin Chen with an ambiguous look, and then said obediently: "Don't worry, sister, I will wait for you obediently."
She was too obedient, which made E Ling feel something was wrong.
Xiaoguai is usually obedient, but when it comes to matters related to her possession rights, she becomes difficult and overbearing. She is definitely not the sweet and gentle husband she is now.
I always feel like he's planning something...
But now E Ling didn't have time to think about it. She took Yin Chen and looked for Xue Huan in the direction she had just left.
When it was about to get dark, E Ling found Xue Huan on a small slope far away from the hustle and bustle of the square and the center of the Beast City.
She just sat on the ground, her white tiger tail drooping listlessly. The air pressure around her was a little low, and she seemed a little lost.
Sensing someone approaching, Xue Huan quickly put away the distraught look on her face and looked at the person who was coming with sharp eyes.
After finding out that the person coming over was E Ling, Xue Hua was stunned for a moment, then said mercilessly: "What? Are you here to laugh at me?"
