What is it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The soup is about to spill.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi glanced down and saw the pot was almost overflowing with jerky, so she quickly stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she picked up a stone bowl to ladle out some of the overflowing broth, a large hand took the bowl from her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi gave the bowl to Sunxiao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the prey was butchered, Jin Ling came over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xixi, you should put this meat away for now. I’ve already portioned out what we’re eating tonight.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi nodded and stored the excess meat and pelts in her space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The family sat down to eat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cubs knew they were facing a grim situation, so they all ate quietly without a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi finished a bowl of meat broth, digested what the little demon had told her, and set her bowl down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two males’ attention had been on her the whole time. When they saw her put down her bowl, they both looked up at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know how we can cross the river.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The males and the cubs all looked at her in astonishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mommy, hurry and tell us!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cubs stared at her expectantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have a Long-tongued Vine.

It won’t be fully mature until tomorrow. We should get a good night’s sleep tonight, and we’ll see in the morning.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Ling didn’t doubt Qiao Xixi’s words in the slightest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I believe you, Xixi.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi gave him a big smile in return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunxiao glanced at Jin Ling, forced to admit that what Qiao Lie had said before was right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’This male is very good at making the little female happy.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the hope of crossing the river, everyone’s mood lightened considerably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After they finished eating, Qiao Xixi spread a beast-pelt blanket on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone come lie down. Time for bed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three cubs obediently lay down on the blanket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunxiao stood up and said to Jin Ling, \"There’s no shelter tonight. You sleep with Xixi, I’ll keep watch.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Ling didn’t object. The night was very cold, and he needed to use his body heat to keep Qiao Xixi and the cubs warm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Ling walked over to Qiao Xixi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xixi, I’ll use my beast form tonight. You all sleep next to me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a shimmer, Jin Ling transformed into a large Golden Tiger Beast and lay down at Qiao Xixi’s feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi hugged the cubs, snuggled up to Jin Ling, and closed her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi had never slept in the open before and woke up several times during the night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She only fell soundly asleep just before dawn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Host, Host, wake up! The Long-tongued Vine is mature!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi was awakened but didn’t open her eyes. Instead, she sent her consciousness into her space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she looked inside, she was utterly stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Long-tongued Vine, which she had planted in a corner, had now turned into a fist-sized, cyan fruit in the soil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi looked skeptical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re telling me this thing can get me across the river safely? Are you sure you’re not messing with me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little demon floated eerily to Qiao Xixi’s side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Host, when have I ever lied to you? Just hurry and pick it, then do what I told you yesterday.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dubious, Qiao Xixi nevertheless picked the fruit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the fist-sized fruit was in her hand, it was as if it came to life. A vine shot out from it and wrapped around her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi opened her eyes and sat up. She opened her hand and stared in amazement at the fruit in her palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mommy, what is that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Qiao, waking up in Qiao Xixi’s arms, asked as she looked at the fruit of the Long-tongued Vine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is the Long-tongued Vine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Ling had been awake for a while, but he hadn’t moved for fear of letting Qiao Xixi and the others get cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Qiao Xixi was awake, he changed back into his human form and also stared at the Long-tongued Vine’s fruit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xixi, we’re going to rely on this to cross the river?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Sunxiao also walked over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you need us to do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We need to find a large tree to use as an anchor point.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunxiao pointed ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There’s a forest over there. We can look for one in that area.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunxiao changed into his beast form and had Qiao Xixi sit on his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Jin Ling had the three cubs sit on his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group headed towards the downstream forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is the place.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of the approaching cold snap, the leaves had all fallen, leaving only bare trunks standing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunxiao brought Qiao Xixi to the base of a large tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you think this one is big enough?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tree Sunxiao had chosen was so thick that it would take several of them to encircle it with their arms. It was more than enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, this is it. You can put me down now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunxiao bent down and set Qiao Xixi on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi dug a small hole in the ground, placed the fruit of the Long-tongued Vine inside, and stroked it gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want to cross the river. Can you help me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if it understood Qiao Xixi’s words, a green vine emerged from the fruit and coiled around her hand before rapidly wrapping itself around the large tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunxiao and the others, surprised, pulled Qiao Xixi back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Long-tongued Vine scaled the entire tree at a visible speed. After firmly rooting itself to the tree, it began to grow frantically toward the riverbank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi’s eyes widened as she watched the Long-tongued Vine grow all the way to the other side of the river, where it found another large tree and wrapped itself tightly around it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Ling reached out and tugged on the vine, finding it to be exceptionally sturdy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xixi, we can cross now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To avoid putting too much stress on the Long-tongued Vine, they all crossed in their human forms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Ang, nestled in Jin Ling’s arms, looked down from the vine bridge and could faintly see the water teeming with Six-eyed Flying Fish Beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So scary.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Qiao burrowed fearfully into Qiao Xixi’s arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t be scared. We’ll be across in a moment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Lie was being held by Sunxiao. As he looked back over his father’s shoulder, his snake-like pupils suddenly narrowed into slits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Father, there are beastmen coming by the river.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunxiao paused, turning back to see a group of beastmen walking up to the base of the bridge formed by the Long-tongued Vine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunxiao frowned imperceptibly and kept walking without breaking his stride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Qiao Xixi also noticed the commotion behind them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was also very surprised when she turned and saw the group of beastmen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where did all those beastmen suddenly come from?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Ling signaled for her not to worry and to get to the other side first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back on the riverbank, the other beastmen were looking up at the Long-tongued Vine spanning the river, overjoyed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When did these vines grow out? Why didn’t we see them when we were here a few days ago?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look, there are beastmen crossing the river on the vines! Let’s hurry up and go too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beastmen scrambled onto the Long-tongued Vine, each trying to be first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi and her family had already reached the other side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xixi, can you retract this vine?\" Jin Ling asked Qiao Xixi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Long-tongued Vine is reusable, but I can’t retract it right now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It’s not that I’m so kind-hearted that I have to help those beastmen. It’s just that if I retract the Long-tongued Vine now, the beastmen back there will definitely see it. I don’t want to cause an unnecessary commotion and bring trouble upon myself.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beastmen at the front of the group were the first to arrive on the bank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when they saw Qiao Xixi, the color drained from their faces.\u003C\u002Fp>",1425,"2026-06-10T05:17:12.488Z",1,"novelbin.me","253f19b790f02978c3803d92a6bbc359514fcad188abe5502f898958169a36fc","i-transmigrated-as-a-villainess-to-raise-babies--chapter-74","i-transmigrated-as-a-villainess-to-raise-babies--chapter-72",293,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-transmigrated-as-a-villainess-to-raise-babies--cover.jpg"]
