Chapter 198: Shura Field

"Witch Doctor, calm down!"

Seeing the clouds of gloom gradually gathering on Ke Si's face, Teng Fei's inner alarm bells rang loudly at once.

But Ke Si paid no attention whatsoever to what he said and strode toward the two people in the corner.

Yun Li, hearing the approaching footsteps, still hadn't realized the shura field that was about to unfold. Her fingers nimbly wove a single braid for Leng Xiao, then began weaving the beast-tooth ornaments she had just bought from the stall into the braid, and finally tied on the headband.

"Done."

The words had barely left Yun Li's mouth when an extremely familiar voice came from beside her ear: "Yun Li, have you forgotten that our matter still isn't resolved?"

Saying that, looking at the female who had raised her head and stared at him in surprise, Ke Si's expression darkened, and he reached out to drag her over.

The sight of her together with her beast husbands was truly an eyesore.

But Leng Xiao was faster than Ke Si's movement, pulling his female into his arms in one motion, then raising his head to look at Ke Si with icy eyes and saying:

"What do you want to do?"

That damned Snake Beastman—always taking advantage of when they weren't paying attention to seduce A Li.

Before, he'd at least find a plausible excuse; now he couldn't even be bothered to find one. Did he really think that after she had the cubs, he could use the children to elevate his status and become A Li's beast husband?

As long as he was here, forget it!

Ke Si, seeing the look in his eyes that wished nothing more than to do him in, smiled. "No matter how you put it, I am still her male. What do you think I want to do?"

Hearing these words, Leng Xiao's face went black with anger. But he wasn't one to be trifled with either. He gave a cold scoff and mocked him:

"You haven't even formally formed a Mate Bond with A Li—what kind of male do you think you are? At most, you're a picnic A Li happened to eat outdoors once. But a picnic is a picnic. With us around, A Li won't keep eating that picnic outdoors."

Although Chang Yue and the others didn't quite understand everything Leng Xiao said, they still grasped the meaning of his words—they were unwilling to let the Witch Doctor enter their home and help care for their female alongside them.

Ke Si's face was dark as he stared fixedly at Leng Xiao and the female in his arms without speaking.

But Yun Li had spent some time in relatively close contact with him, so how could she not see that he was already so angry he was about to kill someone? The reason he hadn't acted, she thought, must be out of regard for her.

Chang Yue and Teng Fei were also somewhat angry about Leng Xiao's remark about the picnic, but on this matter, the most important thing was still Yun Li's attitude.

"A Xiao and A Xiu still can't quite accept the matter between you and me, so our Pairing Ceremony might be delayed."

"Delayed?"

Ke Si's voice turned cold in an instant. Yun Li rubbed her aching temples, ignored his fury, and continued, "Of course, if you're willing to accept not living with us after holding the Pairing Ceremony, then we can go find the Priest to conduct the Pairing Ceremony tomorrow.

After all, if you really can't get along with them, and you're forced to live together, I'm afraid the moment I step out the door you'll start fighting.

But there are cubs at home. If you're always arguing or clashing, they'll be afraid to come home."

Hearing Yun Li's latter words, Ke Si's expression finally improved somewhat. Only the stipulation that he wouldn't be allowed through the door after the Mate Bond still made his heart clench with an uncontrollable pang.

Similarly, Leng Xiao also suddenly let go because of the fact that Yun Li would definitely form a Mate Bond with Ke Si.

"I don't agree. Anyone is fine, but not him."

"A Xiao."

Seeing that Leng Xiao was genuinely hurt this time, Yun Li quickly grabbed hold of him, but for the first time, she was forcefully pulled away by a male.

"Aren't you insisting on forming a Mate Bond with him? Since you'll form a Mate Bond with him sooner or later, what difference is there between today and tomorrow? He's here, so I'll leave."

"A Xiao! Wait!"

Watching Leng Xiao pull his hand free and turn to leave, Yun Li subconsciously wanted to chase after him.

This was also her first time facing this kind of situation. Compared to Ke Si, the one she valued most was of course Leng Xiao, so she hadn't considered at all what kind of wound her next blurted-out words would inflict on Ke Si.

"We can discuss this again. Don't be impulsive."

But Yun Li had only rushed a few steps when a hand reached out from behind and grabbed her.

Ke Si's voice came from behind. "So, you want to please him and not form a Mate Bond with me, is that it?"

Yun Li was truly overwhelmed by the two of them. "Did I ever say that? But I do genuinely regret going out with you that day now. If I'd known it would turn out like this, I never should have gotten so close to you just to improve my medical skills.

If you weren't prepared to accept A Xiao and the others, and to make A Xiao and the others accept you, why did you come provoke me?"

"I provoked you? Wasn't it you who provoked me first?"

Ke Si suddenly tightened his grip on her wrist. "Giving me the snake-bone whip, then constantly coming to find me under the pretext of an alliance between two tribes—wasn't it all to achieve your goal through my attention to you?

Now that you've gotten what you wanted, you want to kick me aside. You think very beautifully."

Yun Li was held by him, watching helplessly as Leng Xiao walked further and further away, until he finally disappeared into the crowd.

Her expression suddenly turned cold. She forcefully pried his fingers open one by one, then said in a low voice:

"Since you understand everything clearly, then you should also know that I don't have much feeling for you at all. It's only because I bear part of the responsibility for what happened that day that I feel I ought to take responsibility.

But that doesn't mean I'll ignore A Xiao and the others' opinions because of you. If you feel you can't accept the proposal I just made, then let's end it here. Whatever dissatisfaction you have in the future, come directly at me.

But the cubs I bear can only be mine. If you dare to secretly take any one of them away from the Silver Eagle Tribe, then I will absolutely have my beast husbands kill you."

She wasn't afraid of Ke Si going mad, because she was long no longer the Yun Li of three years ago. Even though her current strength was still only Green Rank, besides the two Blue Rank Beastmen at her side, A Qing and Axuan, she could also command the other Blue Rank Beastmen of the tribe when necessary.

Therefore she wasn't afraid that Ke Si would go mad after hearing these words—she was only worried that in his fury, he might secretly take away the cubs they'd have together.

That, Yun Li could absolutely not accept.

No matter who their birth father was, the one who gave birth to them was clearly her, and she also had the ability to raise them.

Therefore, if Ke Si dared to lay a finger on the cubs, she would absolutely fight him to the death.

After saying that, Yun Li paid no mind to what Ke Si's reaction might be. She glanced at Chang Yue and Teng Fei, then set off chasing in the direction Leng Xiao had left.

She had to coax A Xiao quickly, otherwise things would definitely turn stormy after going home today.

Yun Li still preferred the relaxing atmosphere of their home and didn't want to shatter it.

And most importantly of all, she also liked Leng Xiao, so how could she bear to let him stay so upset.
