Traveling through the world of beasts, various big guys are chasing after your pets!

They chatted for a long time without realizing it, until Ziyi came back from hunting. Then Amu stood up to say goodbye and left with Yinling, who was reluctant to leave.

Seeing Yinling looking aggrieved and unwilling to leave, He Jiaojiao couldn't help laughing.

She quite likes this little girl!

"Zi Yi, you're finally back!"

Even though they hadn't seen each other for just one morning, He Jiaojiao felt as if she hadn't seen Zi Yi for a long time. She rushed over and threw herself into Zi Yi's arms.

"Jiaojiao, are you missing me?"

Zi Yi hugged He Jiaojiao with one hand, carried her into the cave, and then gently put her down.

"Ok!"

Although it was a bit embarrassing, He Jiaojiao still nodded and admitted it.

Zi Yi was naturally very happy to hear He Jiaojiao say that she missed him. He lowered his head and gave He Jiaojiao a kiss on the face, then weighed the two big fish that he had already processed in his hands.

"Jiaojiao, let's have fish soup at noon!"

The two big fish were even bigger than the ones Mo Ran caught last time. He Jiaojiao knew that Zi Yi was not good at underwater hunting, but he still caught the fish for her. This showed that he was only thinking about her, and she was very happy.

"Okay!"

He Jiaojiao put her arm around Ziyi's waist and nodded happily in agreement.

"You've only caught these two fish since you went out?"

Chi Yan, who was standing aside, had turned back into an orc at some point. He glanced at the so-called "fish" in Zi Yi's hand. Here, no orc would be willing to eat this little beast unless it was absolutely necessary, because it had many thorns in its body and could easily get stuck. In serious cases, it would be fatal.

There was a playful little fox in the tribe before. It died because it ate this "fish" and the bones inside pierced its throat.

"Of course..." Before he could even utter two words, Chi Yan's face darkened visibly.

"This is what I like to eat. Ziyi caught it for me. What's wrong with that?" Ziyi's slowness didn't mean He Jiaojiao couldn't see that Chi Yan's tone just now was quite bad. It was only because the other party was Ziyi that they didn't have a conflict.

"No, Jiaojiao!" Ziyi saw that He Jiaojiao's tone was a bit aggressive and suddenly became a little anxious. "I also caught other prey, the mooing cow you like, and threw it by the stream in front. I thought I would send the processed fish back first and deal with it later."

"I know!" He Jiaojiao smiled gently and took Ziyi's hand. "My big tiger is so powerful, how could he only catch two fish? He must have seen them by chance and thought I would like to eat them, so he caught them, right?"

Ziyi nodded somewhat embarrassedly.

"Besides, even if I only caught two fish, what's wrong with that? As long as I like to eat them, isn't that enough?"

He Jiaojiao said this to Chi Yan.

Chi Yan's expression darkened at He Jiaojiao's fury. He had spent the entire morning with He Jiaojiao, and she had been busy chatting with other females, not even giving him a glance. Seeing Zi Yi so happy now made him feel uncomfortable.

"what ever!"

Chi Yan raised his foot and left the cave.

After leaving the cave, Chi Yan couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. How could he let things develop like this? This was not what he meant!

Chi Yan, feeling upset, looked at the sky, sighed heavily, and walked towards the stream.

After Chi Yan left, Zi Yi wanted to chase him to explain, but was stopped by He Jiaojiao. In He Jiaojiao's opinion, this arrogant fox had no idea what was wrong with him and was always looking for trouble. There was no need to indulge him.

Next, Ziyi showed off his cooking talent. After a while, a pot of milky white fish soup was ready, and grilled fish was cooked along with it.

"This grilled fish looks even more delicious today!"

He Jiaojiao leaned over to smell it and couldn't help swallowing.

"Well, I marinated it a little bit according to the method I used to make roast chicken!"

Ziyi said as he used chopsticks to pick out the meat from the grilled fish's belly and placed it in the wooden bowl in front of He Jiaojiao. After his last experience eating fish, Ziyi realized that the spines on the little beast's belly were the easiest to find and remove. This way, he wouldn't have to worry about Jiaojiao getting stuck.

Just as He Jiaojiao opened her mouth wide and prepared to eat, the sound of silver bells rang out outside.

"Jiaojiao, are you there?"

Facing Yin Ling who had returned, He Jiaojiao was a little confused, but still responded, "I'm here, just come in!"

Yinling hesitated for a moment, but still walked in biting her lower lip.

"I just passed by your cave and smelled something delicious. Jiaojiao, what are you cooking?"

As Yinling approached, she saw a pot of milky white soup and a golden roasted fish, and her eyes suddenly widened.

Have Jiaojiao and the others fallen to the point of eating this kind of thorny beast?

Because the fish is covered with thorns, some orcs call it a thorny beast.

"Jiaojiao, didn't your partner kill the beast? How about I go back and give you some meat?"

Yinling looked at He Jiaojiao with some heartache. She had just given birth. How could she eat these things? How could her body recover like this?

"No, Ziyi killed a wild beast. I wanted to eat this, so he caught it just for me." He Jiaojiao explained with a smile, "This is delicious. Do you want to try it?"

After He Jiaojiao finished speaking, she stuffed the fish in the bowl into her mouth and ate it with a delicious look.

But in Yinling's eyes, she felt that He Jiaojiao must have suffered a lot, otherwise why would she eat the thorny beast? No one in the tribe would be willing to eat this kind of small beast even if it was given to her.

But seeing that He Jiaojiao invited her kindly, Yinling didn't want to embarrass her, so she reluctantly took the piece of fish handed to her by Ziyi and put it into her mouth.

As the grilled fish took hold, the aroma was fragrant and the meat was very delicious, without the strange smell that one might have imagined.

"Is this...is this really a Thornbeast?"

Yinling asked in disbelief.

"How is it? Is it delicious?"

He Jiaojiao said with a smile, and then asked Ziyi to serve Yinling another bowl of fish soup.

Looking at the milky white fish soup in the bowl, Yin Ling didn't hesitate this time and lowered her head to take a sip. The unprecedented freshness and fragrance made Yin Ling drink the whole bowl of fish soup in one breath.

"Jiaojiao, your partner is amazing. He can even cook this thorn beast so deliciously."

Yinling's praise came from the bottom of her heart this time. She had secretly eaten the food of the thorny beast before, which was very fishy and impossible to eat. But the food here by He Jiaojiao was so delicious that she wanted to eat some more.

"Of course, my Big Tiger is very skilled in cooking!"

He Jiaojiao said with pride.

Chi Yan came back carrying the processed mooing cow. Before he entered the cave, he heard He Jiaojiao praising the big white tiger, and his face became gloomy again.

After entering the cave, Chi Yan put down the meat without saying a word.

"Chiyan, you have to keep up the good work. Jiaojiao's partner is really amazing. The spiky beasts they make are super delicious!" Yinling said, standing up with a reluctant look on her face. "It's getting late. I should go home, Jiaojiao. I'll come play with you tomorrow and let my partner and your big tiger learn how to make spiky beasts."
