Chapter 40 - Yun Yun: "If it tastes good, eat it. Why don't you look if it's pretty? Truly, drawing the snake out of its hole!"

The firelight illuminated the cave, filling the cool space with a warm, cozy feeling.

"Here!"

Beside the fire, Yun Yun held out her small hand, offering the freshly grilled fish to Qi Fan.

Qi Fan accepted it with a bitter expression, but with practiced ease.

"Sigh…"

Staring at the charred food in front of him, Qi Fan sighed softly.

This was the tenth attempt by the woman before him!

He had already endured this woman's torment ten times in a single evening!

Ten times!

Tell me, what man could endure such torment?

Qi Fan's mouth felt somewhat bitter at this moment, but he still opened it again.

Just as Qi Fan's mouth was about to touch the grilled fish, Yun Yun suddenly said, "It's a bit hot, be careful~"

Hearing Yun Yun's reminder, Qi Fan was slightly stunned, then smiled, "Do you think I care about this little bit of heat, given my strength?"

"..."

Hearing this, Yun Yun immediately rolled her eyes at Qi Fan.

This man truly didn't understand what it meant to care!

Immediately, Yun Yun said, somewhat annoyed, "Your strength?"

"Are you talking about the strength that got you so weak you fainted from a few little magical beasts?"

"Can I take that as you trying to goad me, testing me?"

Qi Fan turned his head, meeting Yun Yun's gaze as he asked with a smile.

"You certainly can."

Yun Yun rested her chin on her delicate hand, her red lips curving slightly. "You're such a mysterious man, you pique my interest."

"Curiosity killed the cat."

Being stared at like that, Qi Fan gave an awkward laugh and quickly picked up a grilled fish, devouring it.

While eating, Qi Fan gave a thumbs up, praising, "It's already very delicious."

"Really?"

Yun Yun was a little excited, but then her expression darkened:

"You're not actually unable to eat, are you just trying to get out of it?"

"Do I seem that boring?"

Qi Fan's face was covered in black lines:

"After all, this is a fish you just risked going outside to catch. It shows how sincere you are in learning, you treat me sincerely..."

"Are you trying to say, if I treat you sincerely, you'll treat me sincerely too?"

Looking at the burning look in Yun Yun's eyes, Qi Fan's mouth suddenly stopped.

Then he swallowed the food in his mouth and said:

"You should be able to break the seal of the rice that day, right?"

"No!"

Yun Yun replied without thinking, "Hmph~"

Glancing at the man who had changed the subject again, Yun Yun's delicate lips pouted in anger.

"Uh..."

Qi Fan was helpless with the woman who was angry again.

What could he do?

If he responded to her ardor, wouldn't it be like a dry match meeting a raging fire, ready to ignite? If it ignited, it would be fine, but if he wasn't careful and caused a life to be lost...

How would he face his precious Yan'er then?

"I'm talking to you about serious matters!"

Hearing Qi Fan's words, Yun Yun's pretty face turned cold.

"Are you speaking seriously? So what I say isn't serious?"

"You know I don't mean that."

Qi Fan secretly groaned inwardly. She's so unreasonable!

"What I mean is, once you're almost recovered, even if I don't leave, we'll have to leave here tomorrow."

"Leave together?"

Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Yun Yun's eyes.

"Are you taking me to find Yan'er?"

"I didn't say that."

Qi Fan shook his head, his expression serious.

"The bloody smell from the wolves I killed tonight can't be covered up no matter what. In time, it will definitely attract other magical beasts. Therefore, we must leave here first thing tomorrow morning."

"I'm fine~ I'll do whatever you say."

Yun Yun nodded obediently, responding with a smile.

"You... won't get better tomorrow, really?"

Qi Fan looked at Yun Yun with some doubt, asking.

"Of course not!"

Yun Yun said frankly: "Come on, you know that's the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King!"

"If its seal was so easy to break, it wouldn't be the king of the Magical Beast Mountain Range."

"Alright~"

Qi Fan nodded and didn't say anything more.

Seeing Qi Fan fall silent again, Yun Yun asked softly, "I still don't know your name!"

"My name..."

Qi Fan wanted to say it, but then he thought, She's the Sect Leader of the Misty Cloud Sect!

In the Jia Ma Empire, if she wanted to investigate someone's background, wouldn't she find out everything?

Find out my background…

That would bring even more trouble, like…

A certain little, mustached alchemist!

"My name, you can ask Yan'er when you have the chance to meet her."

Hearing this, Yun Yun pouted, "Hey~ Seriously? You won't even tell me your name?"

"I just want to eat grilled fish," Qi Fan said.

Yun Yun's willow-leaf eyebrows shot up, and the grilled fish in her hand flew towards Qi Fan.

"Eat, eat! Eat until you burst!"

"If it's delicious, of course I love eating it."

Qi Fan took a big bite of the grilled fish, seemingly talking to himself.

"Hmph~"

Yun Yun was so angry that her chest hurt. She muttered:

"If you know it's delicious to eat, why don't you know it's beautiful to look at?"

"..."

Though the sound was faint, Qi Fan heard it clearly, but dared not respond…

Outside the Demonic Beast Forest.

"Ah~ Help!"

"Help! Is anyone there to save me?"

A few high-pitched cries for help from women suddenly echoed through the dense forest.

"Hmm?"

Two men, resting high up in the trees, suddenly widened their eyes upon hearing this.

"A woman???"

One of the middle-aged men, who looked rather domineering, frowned.

"How could there be a woman's cry for help here? Am I hallucinating?"

"Big Brother Mu She, it's not a hallucination. The cry for help is real!"

The young man beside him, who couldn't even sit down to rest, said quickly.

"Heh~ Interesting!"

Mu She's lips curled into a smile that seemed to see through everything.

"Don't bother with them."

"Not going to do anything?"

The young man looked at Mu She in surprise. "Really? You're not going to do anything? It's not easy to meet women here."

"Precisely because it's not easy, it's strange."

Mu She analyzed calmly, "Brother Mo Li, you're still young, you can't let a woman cloud your judgment."

"A woman who can come here wouldn't be simple. If we rashly approach, we might fall into their trap!"

Hearing this, Mo Li nodded and gave a thumbs up from the bottom of his heart. "Big Brother Mu She truly deserves to be a mercenary captain, much more mature than this little brother."

Hearing Mo Li's praise, Mu She immediately humbled himself.

"Brother Mo Li, you are a young genius, your future is limitless. You will definitely be much stronger than your elder brother. I still need your care and support!"

"Hahahaha~ Of course!"

Even though Mo Li wanted nothing more than to hack Mu She into pieces, he still wore a foolish grin on his face!

Thinking about his hellish experience in Green Mountain Town, Mo Li's legs immediately began to tremble.

Those mercenaries deserved to die, and Mu She deserved it even more!

He was the one who was the most enthusiastic at the time. Not only was he enthusiastic, but he was also toying with the woman next to him!

How can the word pervert describe him?

Although he also had a little bit of enj...

"Hiss~"

Mo Li, who was recalling the experience, suddenly heard a strange sound from behind that made his scalp tingle.

Qi Fan instinctively glanced back.

He saw a giant python opening its maw, lunging towards him and Mu She!

"Holy shit!"

"Holy shit!"

Mu She and Mo Li exchanged a look, and, terrified, immediately leaped down from the tree and sprinted forward! And the direction they ran in was, naturally, the place where the cries for help had come from!!! Mu She realized this at the time, and cursed while running:

"Damn it! They weren't calling for help at all? They were clearly luring the snake out of its hole!"
