The scorching sun burned the earth, and the dense primeval forest was like a huge piece of emerald, reflecting a deep light in the sun.

A fat hare hit the vines on the edge of the trap with a "thump". It was bounced high into the air, drew a perfect parabola in the air, and then fell headfirst into the bottom of the trap.

"What a good day today is that lunch is delivered to my door."

Qingzhi stretched lazily, her wheat-colored skin glowing with health in the mottled sunlight, her exquisite curves faintly visible under the hide bra and short skirt.

She casually brushed her hair in front of her forehead, revealing her delicate face and a pair of sharp green eyes.

The orcs of the Blackrock Tribe always laughed at her for being a "half-baked one".

"Look at those eyes. Leopard people all have yellow eyes, but hers are green. She looks like a freak!"

"That's right. I heard that her mother used these eyes to seduce her father. I don't know what kind of magic she used, but she actually made the most powerful warrior in the tribe fall in love with him and even quit being the leader!"

Qing Zhi sneered at this.

Her mother and father had always loved each other and had told her a lot about love. Although she didn't understand much, she roughly knew that "love" was something that most orcs did not have.

Qingzhi jumped lightly into the trap and skillfully killed the hare which was still struggling.

Just then, a strange breath broke into her perception range.

somebody is coming!

After putting the rabbit away, Qingzhi narrowed his eyes and slowly hid behind a huge rock like a cheetah ready to pounce.

A strange man stumbled into her sight.

He was in a very disheveled state, his strange clothes were torn and covered with dirt and grass.

He seemed to be avoiding something and looked around in panic, and did not notice Qingzhi hiding behind a boulder.

Qing Zhi looked at the intruder.

The scent on him was very unfamiliar, a mixture of grass and soil, and an indescribable... fragrance?

All the male orcs of the Blackrock Tribe reek of sweat and animal smell. Although this male looked frail, at least he didn't smell bad. He was like new buds in the forest after the rain, which made her mouth salivate for some reason.

Qingzhi's curiosity was aroused, and she leaned her head out slightly, wanting to see where this male came from.

The man seemed to be exhausted. He staggered a few steps and fell to the ground. He lowered his head, so his face could not be seen clearly. All that could be seen was a head of silver hair that was longer than his ears and blocked his face.

Qing Zhi licked her lips and took a few steps closer quietly.

The man seemed to notice it and raised his head suddenly, looking over vigilantly.

Their eyes met and the air froze for a moment.

The man had a pair of beautiful purple eyes, like the crystal she had found in the cave before, ethereal and dazzling.

His facial features were incredibly delicate, his skin was fair, and on his collarbone, a red mole was faintly visible under his clothes. The injured skin was oozing with blood, adding some strange beauty.

Qing Zhi couldn't describe it, but after looking at each other——

"Mom, I seem to know what 'love' is..." Qing Zhi said without blinking.

The man met her dark green eyes and was stunned for a moment. Then he reacted and frowned and asked, "Who... are you?"

The voice was low and pleasant, with a barely perceptible hint of nervousness.

Qingzhi's ears shivered because of the itch. When he came to his senses, a determined light flashed in his eyes.

She wants to take this male back to be her mate!

"My name is Qingzhi," she grinned, revealing her neat white teeth, "What's your name?"

The man felt a little uncomfortable with her staring at him. He turned his head away to avoid her gaze, but still said honestly, "Xia Yuan."

"Xia Yuan?"

Qing Zhi repeated, as if thinking about something, "I have never heard of such a name. Which tribe are you from?"

If it was an orc from another tribe, she couldn't just take him back. If someone found out, the male would definitely be executed.

"I..." Xia Yuan opened his mouth, but didn't know how to explain.

He can't say that he is from another world, right?

Originally he was a modern botanist. He accidentally discovered an ancient book while looking up information in the library. He was so fascinated by it that he came here in the blink of an eye.

At first he was very happy. Many of the lush plants around him were new to him and he didn't know what they were. He thought he could study them carefully. However, before he was happy for two minutes, he heard waves of wolf howls...

Judging from the way this person is dressed, and her moving ears and tail, she should be a leopard woman?

He traveled to the world of beasts?

"What? Are you from the Red Snake Tribe and want to sneak into our tribe to do bad things?"

Qing Zhi pressed forward step by step, with a scrutinizing tone in her voice, and her enchanting figure silently blocked Xia Yuan's retreat.

"I'm not from any tribe," Xia Yuan simply risked his life. He raised his head and looked directly into Qing Zhi's eyes. "I came from a very far place and was chased by wild beasts..."

The female orc did not attack him immediately and seemed able to communicate, so maybe he could try to ask for help.

"Very far..."

Qing Zhi looked a little melancholy for a moment.

Her mother could not transform into an animal form, and she once said that she came from far away.

Then she must take this male back with her!

“Ouch~~~——”

A wolf howl suddenly sounded.

Xia Yuan felt a chill on his back, and his sparkling purple eyes looked at Qing Zhi, "A wolf is chasing me, let's run!"

Qing Zhi didn't move at all, but moved closer to him, "If I save you, will you come with me?"

Xia Yuan nodded quickly, "Let's go, let's first——"

"That's fine."

Qingzhi gave a big smile.

Then, under Xia Yuan's gaze, the leopard girl with slender limbs and a hot body bent her waist and rolled in the air in a very graceful arc. When she landed, she turned into a beautiful leopard!

Xia Yuan was so shocked by this sudden transformation that he was speechless.

The agile posture, smooth lines, green eyes sparkling like gems, black spots dotted on the golden fur, shining brightly in the sun, and exuding an elegant temperament unconsciously as he moves.

Xia Yuan looked at her blankly.

"Ouch——"

The wolf howled again, this time closer.

Qing Zhi swung his tail and said, "What are you still standing there for? Come up."

She lowered her head and motioned Xia Yuan to climb onto her back.

Xia Yuan finally came back to his senses. He looked at the beautiful beast in front of him and hesitated.

Although Qing Zhi had behaved very friendly before, he was not sure whether this was her trap. After all, there was still an insurmountable gap between humans and animals.

"What? Are you afraid that I will eat you?" Qing Zhi seemed to see through his thoughts, and there was a hint of teasing in her tone.

"No." Xia Yuan quickly denied. He didn't want to anger the female leopard.

After all, they can still communicate, so those wolves might be real beasts!

"Then hurry up!"

The wolves were getting closer and closer, and it would be too late if we delayed any further.

She herself was not afraid, but the male was too weak and she might not be able to distract herself to protect him.

Xia Yuan gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and climbed onto Qing Zhi's back.

It was his first time riding on the back of a wild beast, and a female leopard at that. The feeling was really... very subtle.

Qingzhi felt the weight on his back and ran towards the depths of the forest.

She was moving very fast, like a gust of wind, shuttling between the woods. Xia Yuan could only feel the whistling of the wind in his ears, and the scenery on both sides quickly receded. He held on to Qingzhi's fur tightly, fearing that he would be thrown off.

Qingzhi ran through the woods. She knew the forest well and soon shook off the chasing wolves and arrived at the cottage where she lived.

Xia Yuan got off her tremblingly.

Qingzhi turned back into human form. She stretched lazily, revealing her proud curves.

Xia Yuan's ears turned red and he turned his head away.

Qing Zhi walked towards him with a smile, "Xia Yuan, will you be my spouse? From now on, I will protect you!"

Xia Yuan turned around again and looked at her in disbelief.

He is...

Being targeted by a female leopard?

"We are different species..." Xia Yuan wanted to explain eagerly, but would the Leopard Girl understand?

Qing Zhi nodded without any surprise, "Yes, I know, you shouldn't be able to transform into a beast, right? It's okay, I don't dislike you."

dislike?

She even disliked it!

Xia Yuan suddenly became unhappy, but did not choose to confront her head-on. Instead, he began to look around.

Qingzhi Hut was built on the edge of the Blackrock Tribe’s territory. It was made of thick branches and animal skins. It was simple but clean.

It was better than Xia Yuan had imagined, but he still frowned.

He is a second-generation rich man after all, and he has mysophobia. Apart from doing research and walking around in the fields, his life is very refined...

This place is too primitive for him to handle. It looks like he has to find a way to go back.

"Do you usually live here?" Xia Yuan pointed at the leaky corner.

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Qing Zhi tilted her head in confusion, "It's warm in winter and cool in summer, and we can hide from wild beasts. It's much better than the caves and tree holes where other orcs in the tribe live."

The corner of Xia Yuan's mouth twitched.

"I'm hurt, and I want to think about my spouse first."

A large piece of Xia Yuan's leg was scraped off. If he encountered any wild beast again, he would definitely not be able to escape. He decided to calm the Leopard Girl and think about other things after finding a way to go back.

Surprisingly, Qing Zhi nodded, "I really need to think about it carefully. After all, it's a matter of love. Although I fell in love with you at first sight, I can also feel that you are still worried about me. It's okay, let's get along well, and you will definitely see the good in me!"

Xia Yuan looked at her in shock.

She is an orc, how can she know what love is?

Then he realized that his eyes were fixed on a place on the side of the wooden house that looked like a wellhead.

He walked over and lifted the woven rattan lid, and sure enough, there was a well inside.

Looking next to it, there are toiletries such as toothbrushes and cups.

Xia Yuan: “…”

It was not quite the same as the beast world he had imagined. It seemed to be quite civilized. No wonder the leopard girl didn't have any beast smell. Moreover, her teeth were very white and she looked very pretty when she smiled...

Oh, what is he thinking!

Xia Yuan sorted out his thoughts. If this Leopard Girl would not force herself on him, and would give him time to recover, and would take care of him and protect him, then staying here seemed to be his best choice...

"Your clothes are torn and you are a little dirty. I'll boil some hot water for you. Clean yourself up and have a good rest. I'll go find some herbs for you."

Qingzhi threw the hunted rabbit aside and started to fetch water and make a fire with very quick movements.

Xia Yuan stared blankly for a while, then saw her go back into the house. When she came out, she was holding a set of clean animal skin clothes. "You can change into this. It's my father's old clothes."

Xia Yuan took it and looked at it for a while, and found that the animal skin clothes were quite delicate and soft, with fine and neat stitching. Looking down...

His face turned red.

Why are there still underwear? Is the civilization of this beast world too advanced?

Xia Yuan unconsciously glanced at Qing Zhi again. She should be wearing underwear too...

As if she had noticed his gaze, Qing Zhi pulled up her leopard print skirt and turned around, "I'm wearing it too. My mother said that if I don't wear this, it's uncivilized and it's easy to get sick."

Xia Yuan looked at the 3D rotating hips in front of him, his neck flushed, and he turned around quickly, "Why are you so shameless?!"

Qing Zhi was startled, then she put down her skirt and smiled, "Yes, yes, my mother also said that I can't show these to others casually, but she passed away too long ago, and I live alone, so it's inevitable that I won't pay attention..."

Xia Yuan calmed down a little and suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Qing Zhi continued, "You and my mother are both from far away. I think your living habits should be similar to my mother's. If she were still alive, maybe you could still chat with her. Unfortunately..."

Xia Yuan understood.

Wells, toothbrushes, and underwear are obviously more modern things, but they appear out of place in this world where cloth has not even been invented. And what the Leopard Woman says about "love" and "civilization" are also modern words.

Everything indicates that the Leopard Woman's mother is also a time traveler.

Xia Yuan felt a little complicated, and turned around and said, "Sorry for bringing up your sad story."

Qing Zhi waved her hands. "My parents were taken away by the Beast God to enjoy a good life. There is nothing to be sad about. Besides, they have already taught me survival skills. I can live well on my own."

Then, she smiled at Xia Yuan again, "However, I will have to work harder in the future to make sure you live a good life."

Xia Yuan was speechless for a moment.

He is a grown man, but he still wants a woman to say this. Isn't it a bit too pathetic?

Xia Yuan said with a serious face, "I will be of use too. I can help you when my injury heals."

Qing Zhi looked him up and down and smiled perfunctorily, "Okay, okay, I'll just wait for you to help me?"

Xia Yuan was almost mad. This Leopard Girl was really... why was she smiling at him so beautifully?

He would never stay here to give birth to little leopards for her. The beauty beast trick wouldn't work!

The water was boiled quickly, Qingzhi helped him add the water, then cleaned the rabbit and started to roast the meat. He cut it with a bone knife and put it into an earthenware bowl. When Xia Yuan came out after washing it, he was stuffed with one armful.

"You eat, I have to go out for a while." Qingzhi put on her bag again.

Are you looking for herbs for him?

Xia Yuan stroked the edge of the warm bowl and pretended to look at the sky. "It's getting late now. You... well, you leave me here alone. What if a wild beast comes?"

Qing Zhi said with some pride, "This is a tribe. With the powerful deterrence of our leader Hei Yan, most wild beasts dare not approach."

Xia Yuan's face darkened and he stopped talking.

Qing Zhi could see that he was unhappy, but today's prey was given to Xia Yuan, and she had to catch another one for the leader, and Xia Yuan's legs still needed herbs...

"Close the doors and windows, don't wait for me." Qingzhi left without looking back.

Xia Yuan held the bowl and muttered, "What kind of leader is this... so powerful and so intimidating, hum~"
