Chapter 11: What Is He Doing?

Bai Wanwan was completely stunned, staring blankly at his flicking tongue.

A strange thought crossed her mind: her body probably couldn't even fill his mouth.

Xin Feng rushed toward her, shouting as he ran, "Wan Wan, move aside quickly!"

Xin Feng's shout brought Bai Wanwan back to her senses; the extreme fear instead made her calm down.

"Zhu Xiu, look carefully. I am Bai Wanwan. Are you really going to swallow me?"

At the moment between life and death, Bai Wanwan threw caution to the wind and directly reached out to touch Zhu Xiu's beast body.

Her fingers were actually trembling slightly. "You still have your reason, right? Do you recognize me?"

The King Cobra's pitch-black eyes narrowed slightly, seeming to examine her, or perhaps discern her words.

Seeing that he hadn't immediately swallowed her, Bai Wanwan quickly continued, "Zhu Xiu, trust me, you can control yourself. Last time in the Cave, you encountered this situation too, right? In the end, you conquered yourself. You can definitely do it this time too."

Xin Feng had already run behind Zhu Xiu, wondering how to snatch Bai Wanwan back from Zhu Xiu's grasp.

However, Bai Wanwan raised her hand toward him, signaling him not to approach or make any rash moves.

Zhu Xiu's current condition was unstable to begin with; if he was provoked by Xin Feng and swallowed her in one go, it would be completely over.

Xin Feng received the signal from Bai Wanwan and stopped approaching, but he kept staring nervously from the side, ready to snatch her from the beast's mouth at any moment.

"Zhu Xiu, look again! I am your mate, Bai Wanwan!"

She cupped his approaching head with both hands, her eyes incredibly serious.

Yet, her heart was terrified to death.

"peanut, I'm playing too rough. I didn't expect that just coming over to take a look would be so dangerous. You must protect me. There aren't many Hosts as cooperative as me, right?"

The system also sighed, mimicking a human expression, "Host, I cannot intervene to help you. All of this still depends on you. I believe the Host can do it. Go for it!"

It seemed this useless system was truly unreliable.

Zhu Xiu's head was now right in front of Bai Wanwan, almost touching her.

Her breathing tightened, and she leaned back slightly, seemingly trying to create some distance for safety.

The Silver Wolf not far away slightly lowered his posture, preparing to snatch her.

"Don't bite me, I'm a little scared!"

Bai Wanwan backed down, laboriously shifting her feet.

But before she could take a single step, her body was suddenly entangled by a long tail.

The Silver Wolf leaped up, but he was still a step too slow, allowing Zhu Xiu to coil Bai Wanwan up right under his nose.

Black energy swirled around Zhu Xiu as he moved to envelop the pursuing Silver Wolf.

With his vision obstructed, the Silver Wolf navigated through the black mist based on feeling and sound.

Soon, he burst out of the black mist, but Bai Wanwan's figure was gone before him.

"Wan Wan?"

Xin Feng searched the nearby forest for several laps but couldn't find any trace of Zhu Xiu or Wan Wan.

Including the pond where Zhu Xiu had been staying, Xin Feng searched back and forth completely but found no sign of Zhu Xiu and Bai Wanwan.

Distraught, he continued moving through the mountains, searching...

*******

On the Beast World continent, the forest trees were lush and overgrown, blocking out the sky. Even the ordinary leaves were several times larger than any she had seen before.

She couldn't distinguish east from west, and coupled with Zhu Xiu's high speed, she had no idea which places they had passed through.

She only knew that he was continuously traversing the forest.

After a long time, as the sky slowly darkened, Zhu Xiu wrapped her up and burrowed into a Cave.

The Cave was very deep; Zhu Xiu carried her sliding for a long time without reaching the bottom.

The Cave was dark and gloomy, and Bai Wanwan couldn't see anything.

Although the one with her was her Beast Husband, he currently posed a greater danger than a strange beast.

"Zhu Xiu, please wake up quickly. It's so dark here, I'm scared."

She didn't know if Zhu Xiu had regained his senses, but Bai Wanwan sensed his beast body pause for a moment.

It was only for a brief second or two before Zhu Xiu continued sliding deeper inside.

This Cave was too deep; she could feel herself sliding up for a while and then sliding down again.

Then, she heard the sound of water.

It must be the Underground River inside the Cave.

Just as she finished guessing the surrounding environment, she was thrown onto the ground by Zhu Xiu.

The action was still rough, and she even hit the Cliff.

Bai Wanwan cursed herself again—why did she have to meddle?

Wouldn't it have been better to just lie on the mattress in the Tribe and sleep under soft bedding?

Why did she have to suffer this ordeal?

But thinking of Zhu Xiu... never mind. Since he was her Beast Husband, she couldn't treat him like a stranger.

The sound around her vanished. Bai Wanwan turned her head to look around; it was too dark, she couldn't see anything.

"Zhu Xiu... Zhu Xiu... are you there?"

Could it be that he brought her back as reserve food?

Her scalp tingled, and she obediently closed her mouth.

What if she annoyed him and he actually ate her?

It was better to minimize her presence and see if she could quietly escape while he was out hunting.

Her mind worked quickly, trying to devise an escape plan and route for herself.

While thinking, she grew a little sleepy... she closed her eyes.

After sleeping her fill, she was startled awake by a jolt.

She had actually fallen asleep in this situation...

"Zhu Xiu?"

She tentatively called out softly.

No echo.

She increased her volume slightly, "Zhu Xiu?"

Still no response.

Bai Wanwan quickly felt her way along the Cliff to get up, slowly groping toward the outside based on memory.

As she groped along, she seemed to have actually found a way out; the path was clear.

Zhu Xiu might really have gone out hunting, which was why she could move outward so smoothly.

Unconsciously, she walked to the location of the Cave exit.

Her line of sight was suddenly illuminated. Bai Wanwan was still a bit unaccustomed to it, so she closed her eyes for a moment, staring at the exit with some hesitation.

If she went out like this, would she become food for some other wild beast?

So, should she leave or not?

While hesitating, she turned back for a look and her eyes met the eyes of the King Cobra.

Bai Wanwan stumbled in fright.

Zhu Xiu hadn't gone hunting? Then why had he been silently following her?

Zhu Xiu slithered over, coiled her up from the ground, his massive beast body gliding over the ground.

They quickly left the Cave.

She didn't know what Zhu Xiu intended to do with her, but after a day and a night, he hadn't harmed her.

For now, her safety should be guaranteed.

Hiss hiss...

The sound of a flicking tongue attracted Bai Wanwan's attention.

She tilted her head forward and saw Zhu Xiu's huge head suddenly shoot forward. The next moment, a wild boar was snatched up in his mouth, then violently slammed onto the ground.

The wild boar struggled a few times, trying to get up, but it was too severely injured to rise.

Zhu Xiu picked it up again in his mouth and slammed it down once more.

Bai Wanwan watched, completely confused: What was he doing?

After repeating this three or four times, the wild boar was completely dead, without any sign of life left.

Zhu Xiu used his long tail to lift her up to the wild boar's side, then let go.

Bai Wanwan fell onto the ground, embracing the wild boar.
