Chapter 95: Tongzi, this pain in the ass

Beastfolk patrolling the forest saw their captain holding the little hand of someone's little female, and each wore a look of utter contempt.

What captain is this?

Making them patrol here painstakingly, he himself goes to curry favor with a little female—contemptible!

Meanwhile, Yuan Lang, whom the team members secretly despised, took Wu Yue to a relatively secluded spot.

Wu Yue eyed the Beastfolk warily: "What are you doing?"

That little gaze demanded vigilance; the more she needed to be on guard, the more vigilant she became.

Yuan Lang gave her a look of utter disdain: "Don't worry, I don't want anything from you."

Upon seeing the little female's sinister gaze, he decisively chose to shut up.

"I have something I need your help with."

A flicker of malice passed through the Beastfolk's eyes, caught by Wu Yue.

She eyed him suspiciously: "Are you hatching some bad scheme?"

Yuan Lang curled his lips in a smile: "I wasn't the one who first came up with a bad scheme."

Having said that, he relayed to Wu Yue what he had heard from several gathering team captains.

Wu Yue narrowed her eyes at the words, curling her lips into a smile much like Yuan Lang's: "Just shaman disciples—they've really gotten full of themselves; whether they can successfully awaken is still uncertain."

Having said that, she looked at Yuan Lang: "What do you want me to help with?"

The Beastfolk gave a cool smile: "Do you know poisonous plants?"

Wu Yue's face showed shock.

Holy shit, this guy is actually a snow tiger, not a snow fox?

She momentarily doubted Yuan Lang's breed.

But thinking of Ye Duo and A Mu's annoying antics, Wu Yue narrowed her eyes; she also wanted to stir up trouble.

She then nodded: "If I encounter them, I will certainly know them."

Anyway, Tongzi is there to guide me.

Yuan Lang stretched his long arms: "Come on, I'll take you there."

Wu Yue glanced at him for a moment: "Can't you just shift into beast form and carry me?"

Dressed so lightly, holding you in my arms feels like embracing a fruit man.

The contempt in her eyes was undisguised; Yuan Lang gritted his teeth, stepped forward, and scooped up the petite female into his arms.

"I don't mind your rough hands, yet you actually despise me."

Is my physique really that bad?

His words carried a fair amount of gritted-teeth resentment.

Wu Yue snorted: "It's not like I asked you to hold me; if you're capable, put me down."

Yuan Lang gave her a deep, meaningful glance, inwardly snorting.

You just keep showing off, this general only treats you well because I have use for you; once you're useless...

Uh.

Thinking of that little female's healing methods, a certain general forcibly swallowed the rest of his words.

The two ran all the way to an open clearing surrounded by low shrubs.

Yuan Lang looked at her: "While patrolling, I noticed this area has more plants; see if you recognize any poisonous ones."

Wu Yue nodded, inwardly beginning to call for her Tongzi, but what made her break down was...

Those calls seemed to sink to the seabed, with no response at all.

Wu Yue inwardly screamed: "Holy shit, Tongzi, you wouldn't do this to a sister, would you?!"

She didn't come out to stop me when I was bragging earlier, but now that we've arrived she's playing dead—this is going to be the death of me.

Seeing her twisted expression as she stood there, Yuan Lang frowned and approached: "What's wrong?"

Wu Yue wiped her face: "Nothing, there's just a lot of grass here; it might take some time."

Yuan Lang waved his hand indifferently: "No rush, take your time looking."

Wu Yue's face stiffened: "You're not in a hurry, but I am!"

But could she say that?

All she could do was wear a bitter expression as she walked aside, pretending to look—maybe Tongzi would come online at a crucial moment.
