Chapter 100: Drawing A Line

??

Bai Di fried the rest of the bird eggs and caught a warthog to roast.

The three of them ate their fill.

Bai Di then went to the river to get water.

Sang Ye wrapped himself lazily around the tree trunk. He looked at Huanhuan walking around with the compass as if she was looking for something.

Bai Di returned with the water. He waved at Huanhuan. “Come here.”

Huanhuan ran over and put down the compass. He held her hands and helped her wash them carefully.

Huanhuan deliberately shook her fingers, splashing water into Bai Di’s face.

Bai Di looked at her indulgently. “Naughty.”

Huanhuan ran away with a smile.

After washing his hands, Bai Di poured the rest of the water on the python to cool him down.

It was getting hot. Even in the forest, it felt muggy.

Bai Di and Huanhuan were fine, but Sang Ye couldn’t take it anymore. He couldn’t muster any energy from the heat and looked listless.

With the nourishment of the water, Sang Ye felt better.

Huanhuan was worried about him. “Why don’t you go back and rest first?”

Sang Ye shook his head. He wrapped her up with his snake tail and placed her on his back.

They walked deeper into the forest. The trees around them were getting taller, and the dense foliage blocked out the sun. They could barely see it. The temperature was dropping, and it was much cooler now.

This place was very much like a primitive forest. The ground was covered in thick green moss, and one would be covered in water if they stepped on it.

Sang Ye liked this place very much. He planned to come here to avoid the heat in the future.

Huanhuan was still fiddling with the compass in her hand. The needle never moved.

After walking so far, she still could not find any trace of another mineral vein.

Huanhuan sighed in disappointment.

Bai Di asked, “Are you looking for something?”

Sang Ye carefully avoided the puddles and roots on the ground, trying to slither steadily as Huanhuan was on top of him. Hearing Bai Di’s words, Sang Ye didn’t turn around, but he was seriously waiting for Huanhuan’s answer.

Clearly, they could all tell that Huanhuan was hiding something.

Huanhuan said slowly, “I’m looking for mineral veins. Unfortunately, I can’t find any.”

Bai Di was patient. “You seem like you really want to find a mineral vein.”

Huanhuan couldn’t say that she had accepted a system mission and had to mine. She hesitated for a moment before answering vaguely, “I need a lot of crystals.”

Sang Ye suddenly turned around. He opened his mouth and spat out a pile of sparkling crystals.

“When I left the temple, I left in a hurry and didn’t bring too many crystals. I only brought these. Take them all. If they’re not enough, I’ll gather more.”

Huanhuan was shocked.

How could this guy spit out so many crystals?

Was there a storage space hidden in his mouth?!

Bai Di said gently, “I have some crystals stored with my friends in a beast city. If you’re not in a hurry, I can go over and bring those crystals back to you.”

Huanhuan quickly waved her hand. “Don’t go. It’s too troublesome.”

Bai Di said, “Tell us what you want. Don’t keep it to yourself. We’ll help you.”

Huanhuan was very touched, but at the same time, she felt vexed.

If she said she wanted a vein, they would definitely mine the vein under the rock mountain. If that happened, everyone would have to move.

She couldn’t disrupt everyone’s lives just because of her personal matters.

After a long silence, she said coquettishly, “Don’t go to the beast city. I don’t want to be separated from you.”

He pulled her into his arms and kissed her cheek. “I don’t want to be separated from you either.”

“Then don’t go.”

Bai Di didn’t really want to go to begin with. His identity was too sensitive. If he appeared in any of the cities, he might attract unnecessary trouble.

He was willing to go to the beast city because of Huanhuan. Since Huanhuan was unwilling to let him go to the beast city, he naturally agreed.

“Okay.”

Huanhuan let Sang Ye put away the crystals.

However, Sang Ye said, “I don’t want them. You can have them.”

Bai Di and Shuang Yun had handed the crystals to her for safekeeping, so she didn’t stand on ceremony this time and quickly put them all into her interspatial ring.

She shook the ring on her ring finger and said with a smile, “I’ve put all your crystals in there. If you want to use them, go get them yourself.”

By the time the three of them returned to the rock mountain, the sun had set.

Shuang Yun sat beside the vegetable field in boredom. As soon as he saw Huanhuan return, he ran over and hugged her.

“Where did you go? I didn’t see anyone when I got home. I thought Bai Di and Sang Ye eloped with you!”

She slowly pushed his wolf head away. “I’ve only heard of two people eloping. I’ve never heard of three people eloping. Your imagination is very unique!”

Shuang Yun asked, “What’s imagination?”

“It’s a black hole in your head.”

Shuang Yun was confused.

Xue Ling flew down from the top of the mountain. As he walked over, a skullcap emerged from his sleeve and wrapped around Huanhuan’s wrist. It rubbed against the back of her hand affectionately as if it was wheedling.

As soon as Huanhuan saw Xue Ling, she instinctively moved from the side and protected Sang Ye behind her.

She pushed away the clinging bud, and her eyes were on Xue Ling. “What are you doing here?”

As if he didn’t notice her defense against him, Xue Ling smiled. “The child misses his mother. As his father, of course, I have to bring him to you.”

Huanhuan frowned.

Although she had explained everything to Bai Di and Shuang Yun, she couldn’t let Xue Ling continue to be ambiguous.

Now that everyone was present, Huanhuan decided to take this opportunity to make things clear so that there would be no misunderstandings in the future.

“If you really want a child, you can just find a female partner. Why did you come to me with a flower for no reason? I’m a person with a family. Don’t always do things that will cause misunderstandings. I’ll be angry!”

Xue Ling’s smile faltered, but it quickly deepened like a poppy flower in full bloom.

She was beautiful, but she exuded a fatal sense of danger.

“Little female, are you trying to draw a line between us?”

Her scalp went numb from his smile, but she forced herself to reply, “Yes.”

Xue Ling nodded. “Good.”

The skullcap seemed to sense the anger in Xue Ling’s chest, causing it to tremble. “Wuu~”

Bai Di had planned to watch until the end. When he saw that Xue Ling was showing signs of anger, he immediately took half a step forward and shielded Huanhuan behind him.

Shuang Yun and Sang Ye also became vigilant.

Xue Ling did not take their hostility to heart. He gently stroked the little flower bud that was still in fear and sighed very helplessly. “Poor little baby. Your mother doesn’t want you anymore. In that case, I have no use for you anymore.”

With that, he pinched the bud and flames sprang from his fingertips.

The skullcap that looked like a lotus flower started crying. “Boo-hoo! Dad, no! It hurts!”
