"Of course," Bai Jie nodded.

The principle is similar to the barrier at the villa; you just need to shrink the barrier, which isn't too difficult.

Seeing Bai Jie's confident demeanor, Zhu Jian nodded without the slightest hesitation.

In the dream, he had already accepted a portion of Bai Jie and the other beasts' memories.

After waking up, he didn't get up immediately, but instead stood there quietly observing, and he certainly didn't seem to be there to covet his tail.

"Put your tail over here, and I'll add a barrier to it," Bai Jie said as she approached Zhujian.

Zhujian instinctively wanted to refuse, but then nodded.

"...Please hurry, I'm very sensitive, and I might subconsciously resist."

He slowly placed his tail in front of Bai Jie, his eyes tightly closed, so as not to see other beasts staring at his tail and giving him the urge to kill them.

Bai Jie looked at the tail in front of her and did not hesitate to inject dream energy remotely. It would be faster to inject it with her claws, but she was afraid that Zhujian would go crazy again, so this way was safer.

As energy was injected, Zhujian frowned. He forcibly suppressed the restlessness in his heart with reason. He knew that Bai Jie had been very gentle and had not directly attacked with her claws, otherwise he probably would not have been able to suppress it either.

This process was not long. Under Bai Jie's powerful dream energy, a small dream barrier had been set up on the outer layer of his tail. His tail could not be seen from the outside. Even if the tail was swung, there was only a slight spatial fluctuation, which could not be seen unless you looked carefully.

Of course, Bai Jie, as the one who set up the barrier, could see this guy's tail perfectly well.

"Alright, you can open your eyes now," Bai Jie said.

Zhujian slowly opened his eyes and pulled his tail back. Sure enough, only when his tail was in front of him could the beast feel at ease.

He sensed it and found that his tail was indeed different from before. The familiar power on it was the thing that had previously made him feel dizzy.

Zhu Jian urgently needed to test it out because he wasn't sure if others could see it. It wasn't that he didn't trust Bai Jie, but he would feel better if he tested it himself.

"Thank you," Zhu Jian said to Bai Jie.

I had just stood up when I felt a little dizzy, and then I tumbled back down.

"What's wrong with me?" Zhu Jian looked at Bai Jie with some confusion. Logically speaking, this golden guy shouldn't have attacked him again, so why did he feel a little dizzy just now?

Bai Jie was speechless when she heard Zhu Jian's question.

“Big brother, you were knocked out by a real punch I gave you in the face, and you still have some of my residual energy in your head—” Bai Jie rolled her eyes.

That would probably give me a concussion, and with the recent resonance with my own energy, it's no wonder I'm dizzy.

Zhu Jian suddenly realized that this was how it was. He had thought that the Pixiu had left a backup plan in his mind, but now it seemed that he had been overthinking it.

He nodded and told Bai Jie that he would rest here for a while and go out to test it later.

Bai Jie shrugged, indicating that there was no problem.

Bai Jie returned to Si Bu Xiang's side.

"Golden Thread, what did you just do to that guy? His tail disappeared?" The Four-Faced Beast's ability to enter dreams was too weak to see what Bai Jie had just done.

"Hmph~ You don't know, do you? Let me tell you! Just now, Bai Jie set up a barrier on Zhujian's tail! A super powerful one!" Mian Tao said, hands on her hips.

Her abilities far surpassed those of the Four-Unlikes, so she could naturally see some signs, but of course, she could only see some signs and nothing more.

Bai Jie's large paws rubbed the cotton boll.

“Yes, I just set up a barrier on the tail of the Qilin. This barrier makes it invisible to outsiders, but it can see inside itself.” Bai Jie paused and added to the Qilin, “It’s similar to the one in our house.”

Si Buxiang listened to Bai Jie's explanation and finally understood. Bai Jie's analogy was very intuitive. He might not know about other things, but he knew about the protective barrier around his own villa.

"Shall we rest here today?" the Four-Unlikes asked.

Bai Jie looked around. Everyone was here, and it would take some time to go back, which would probably be quite late.

"Let's stay here for the night," Bai Jie nodded and said.

This was within Si Bu Xiang's expectations. He knew Bai Jie quite well; Bai Jie didn't really like traveling at night.

When Bai Ze heard Bai Jie say that she wanted to stay here for the night, he followed her and said, "We can ask Zhu Jian. He's the boss here and should know where it's a good place to rest."

Bai Jie listened to Bai Ze's advice and came to Zhu Jian again.

"What's wrong?" Zhu Jian seemed to be in a good mood, and he asked in advance.

"Let's ask if there's a good place to rest here. We're planning to spend the night here. You don't mind, do you?" Bai Jie said.

"Haha~ Of course I don't mind, of course I don't mind! I'd love for you all to be here. You know, I, Zhujian, have never had any friends before. You're the first batch of friends here." Zhujian laughed heartily.

Generally, the first thing that attracts the beasts that come is Zhujian's long, thin tail, which arouses Zhujian's rage, and without exception, they are all smashed or seriously injured by him.

Therefore, it is true that Bai Jie and her group of beasts were his first friends.

"As for accommodation, you can rest here for a while. Once I've recovered, I'll take you to my residence, which is a better place to rest," Zhujian added.

"It's troublesome."

. . .

As the night deepened, Zhujian slowly got up, this time without feeling dizzy.

He led the beasts to his dwelling place, a cave that he had personally created with his tail, the entrance of which was covered with the whip marks of his tail.

"This is where I live. I don't know if it suits you, but please make do with it for now," Zhujian said apologetically.

Because of his bad temper, he attacked Bai Jie and the others. However, Bai Jie and the others did not blame him. Instead, they helped him keep his tail out of the public eye.

I felt quite ashamed that I had given them such a simple cave to stay in.

"It's alright, as long as we have a place to rest, we don't care about much else." Bai Jie said that it didn't matter, being able to rest was already very good, and besides, the cave was a very good place to stay.

“Then you all rest, I’ll go and hunt some game for you,” Zhujian said.

Since we have nothing to repay them with, let's go and catch some food for them.

"I'm quite familiar with these mountains. You might get lost if you go there. Consider this my way of repaying you."

After Zhujian finished speaking, he left. He wasn't just going hunting; he also wanted to test whether his tail could be seen by other creatures. After all, Bai Jie and her group of beasts were all in cahoots. What if they were lying to him?

The probability is small, but that doesn't mean it's impossible. You'll only know for sure after you experience it yourself.
