After crossing over, the demon king rolled in my arms and acted like a spoiled child

"How do you know I'm the best candidate?" Bai Jiyue asked warily.

Ming Yuan blinked and said, "Because you are the only woman among us, women must be more careful in taking care of cubs than us men."

Bai Jiyue breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that he didn't know that this was what the so-called best candidate meant.

She laughed at herself in her heart, thinking that she was just being too sensitive. How could he know that she had spiritual roots from the spirit race?

However, this spirit beast egg is indeed very suitable for her. She can speak animal language. After the egg hatches, she can tame the spirit beast from an early age and use it for her own purposes.

Thinking of this, she calmly put the spirit beast egg into her arms and smiled at Ming Yuan: "Thank you then."

The moment Ming Yuan curled his lips, his eyes seemed to become much gentler: "You're welcome."

Bai Ji Ri suddenly stopped and looked back at his sister. Bai Ji Yue didn't say anything more to Ming Yuan and took two quick steps to catch up with his brother.

She didn't know that if she walked closer to the spirit beast now, she would find that the spirit beast's body was very shriveled, and most of the blood in its body had flowed out, and the remaining small part had been absorbed by humans.

The person who absorbed the blood of the spirit beast was stretching leisurely at this moment.

The blood of the sixth-level spiritual beast entered his body, making Mingyuan feel warm, lazy and comfortable all over.

He would wait until he returned to transform his energy a little more. By tomorrow morning, his power would be restored to half of its original value. By then, he would be basically invincible among the human race.

Ming Yuan's skills secretly increased, and the cultivation of Bai Jiyue and his sister also improved.

Because he killed a spirit, Bai Ji Ri's cultivation level went up to the same level as Bai Ji Yue, which is the third intermediate level. His strength, defense and archery skills each went up by one level.

Bai Jiyue's agility and weapon control each increased by one level.

After this battle, the skills of the others also improved.

The battle was won by the outnumbered side, the ceremonial carriage was not robbed, and he himself improved his cultivation. Everyone was delighted.

After a short break, everyone took turns to rest, and the day arrived without any incident. The ceremonial car team continued on their journey.

The public security in the Dark Stone Wasteland was very poor, with many bandits, and it was hard to guard against them. It was common for people who traveled long distances and had some property to be robbed. However, the battle this time probably spread its name, and there was no more harassment from bandits all the way until they entered Puling County, which bordered the Dark Stone Wasteland.

The Dark Stone Wasteland is a wild and barren land. Although Puling County borders the Dark Stone Wasteland, due to different geographical conditions, the natural environment is obviously different, and the folk customs and economy are also very different.

After entering the territory of Puling County, there is clearly a scene of peace and prosperity.

The convoy stopped at the post house in the town to rest. When the officials in the post house learned that they were escorting tribute items, they very solemnly arranged the ceremonial carriage in the large courtyard at the back and sent soldiers to guard it.

Everyone finally had a decent house to live in and could take a hot bath.

Because Bai Jiyue was a woman, she was assigned a separate room. As soon as she entered the room, she called the waiter of the inn to help her bring two large buckets of hot water so that she could take a hot bath.

As she was undressing, the egg fell from her arms onto the bed.

These days, she placed the spirit beast egg close to her chest, hoping that her body temperature would incubate the spirit beast inside, but after more than ten days, the egg showed no movement.

Is it because the temperature is not high enough?

After thinking for a while, she scooped a basin of water from the bathtub, put the spirit beast egg into the hot water, and murmured: "Just take a hot bath with me."

The spirit beast egg rolled in the water, as if in response to her words.

Bai Jiyue smiled, took off her clothes and got into the bathtub.

She had been traveling and sleeping in the open air for the past few days, and she felt itchy all over because she loved cleanliness. She always wanted to take a bath. Now her wish finally came true. She leaned against the bathtub and let out a long breath, letting her body slowly relax in the warm water. When a person relaxes, he will feel tired, and she dozed off unconsciously leaning against the edge of the bathtub.

Just as she was shaking her head, she was suddenly awakened by a crisp "click".

She stretched her head and looked, and saw that the spirit beast egg in the washbasin next to the bathtub had actually cracked a tiny crack!

She was immediately cheered up. She had not thought that the egg would really make any movement, but unexpectedly, she had a great success!

After hurriedly washing her body and with her long hair wet, she squatted beside the washbasin and stared at the egg.

After a while, the egg cracked into two more cracks, and then a piece of eggshell was pushed open from the inside.

A tiny baby bird's head popped out from under the eggshell. Bai Jiyue was surprised and quickly took the egg out of the water.

The baby bird shook its head and tried to get out, but the eggshell was cracked a little, and except for its tiny head, its body couldn't get out.

Bai Jiyue watched it struggling to break out of the egg and thought it was super cute, but she didn't help. She knew that she couldn't help at this time, and it had to rely entirely on itself to be born!

After waiting for a long time, the chick finally broke through the eggshell and came out, wet all over, like a gray chick.

Bai Jiyue wrapped it with a piece of cloth and held it carefully in his arms, and an idea popped up in his mind unconsciously.

She opened the door holding the baby bird and called the innkeeper, "Could you please find me some insects to feed the bird?"

The guy was slightly stunned, probably because he had never agreed to such a request before.

Bai Jiyue opened the cloth in his arms to let the boy see the baby bird: "This little bird has just been born, I want to feed it some insects."

The young man shook his head and said, "We don't have any near the posthouse. If you want to buy one, you need to go to the east market and buy it yourself."

Bai Jiyue didn't force it. After all, this was a government inn and it was normal for them not to run errands.

She asked for the route to the east street market and knocked on Bai Jiri's door, wanting him to accompany her.

Unexpectedly, his roommate came to open the door and said that Bai Jiyue was taking a shower, so Bai Jiyue had to go back to the room and wait.

Just as he was about to enter the door, he heard a voice saying leisurely, "Why bother to buy them? There are insects everywhere."

Bai Jiyue turned around following the sound and saw Mingyuan leaning against the wall, with his arms folded, looking at her leisurely.

He had probably just taken a shower, his face looked much paler, and he had changed into light blue clothes, which had a faint scent of soapberries.

Bai Jiyue blinked, and had to admit that Mingyuan's appearance was indeed outstanding. He took off his heavy black clothes and put on light-colored clothes. The corners of his lips seemed to be smiling, which gave him a bit of the romantic temperament of a nobleman.

Since coming to this ancient alien world, she has seen several outstanding young men, but she has never seen one with such a changeable temperament as Mingyuan.

Most of the time, he was aloof, aloof and taciturn, but occasionally he would smile at her, and at that moment the iceberg melted and spring came.

Bai Jiyue looked at him and felt a little uneasy. He coughed and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Catching bugs."

"Where to catch it?" Bai Jiyue asked casually.

"Follow me." He took two steps forward and grabbed Bai Jiyue's wrist.

Bai Jiyue subconsciously broke free, and he suddenly remembered something. He smiled slightly without getting angry, just hooked his finger at her and walked ahead.

Bai Jiyue was also curious, so she held the baby bird and followed him out of the inn.
