I don't want to come up with a funny book title anymore.

Xie Fengnan had no intention of keeping Xiaoxue in suspense, so he gave her the whole bunch directly and said nonchalantly, "If you want more after you've finished eating, just let me know."

Xiaoxue was carefully accepting the eight pills when she heard these words and almost lost her composure.

Does Brother Xie mean he still has a lot of aptitude pills?

Who exactly is Brother Xie? I feel like I'm not worthy of signing an equal contract with him at all, sob sob.

(Thank you, Brother Xie! I'll be your servant for life!)

(My husband and I would do anything for you without hesitation!)

"Ah, no need for that. We probably won't make you risk your lives."

Xie Fengnan politely declined. He was still thinking about how Xiaoxue and her husband were raising their own Crimson Blood Copper babies in the space. Who would let their pet risk its life?

It's worth mentioning here that lifespan varies depending on rank; for Xie Fengnan, it's been a long time.

"If you have no objections, I'll take all the Crimson Copper here with me?"

(Mine belongs to Brother Xie! Brother Xie, feel free to do as you please.)

Xie Fengnan almost joked, "Is your husband mine too?"

However, in a sense, Xiaoxue's husband really is her pet.

Xie Fengnan asked Deng Xiu and Shen Rong for help. Although he could directly use his spatial power to cut off this area, it would make too much noise.

Although he had a good impression of the two, Xie Fengnan did not reveal too many of his habits.

The two of them were only slightly shocked when Lion bowed his head to acknowledge Lion as his master, and then they calmed down. If it had been in the past, they would definitely have been greatly shocked.

But that's Xie Fengnan.

Xie Fengnan, who just annihilated three Rakshasa birds!

Therefore, it makes perfect sense.

With the Rakshasa bird as a precedent, the Lion's victory over the Lion is nothing special.

The three of them spent half a day cleaning up the Crimson Copper.

During the conversation, Xie Fengnan said that they could take some with them if they needed them.

The two of them only took a palm-sized piece as a souvenir, and gave the rest to Xie Fengnan.

Finally, there's Xiaoxue's personal collection of pets.

Xie Fengnan secretly discussed the matter with Xiaoxue.

(Logically, since you're my pet now, I should pay for your medical treatment. But most of my things aren't convenient to give to them. Could you use your pad for now? I'll pay you back later.)

(Brother Xie, pick whatever you like. I already said what's mine is yours, so don't be shy!)

After saying that, Xiaoxue started to get emotional. It turns out that Brother Xie just treats me like a pet. I thought I could become Brother Xie's battle beast. As expected, I am not worthy. Waaaaah.

Xie Fengnan then turned to Deng Xiu and Shen Rong, saying, "I've discussed it with Xiaoxue. You can choose some items from its collection to cover the treatment costs."

Deng Xiu quickly shook her head: "No, no, it was all Brother Xie's doing, how could I accept such an offer?"

Shen Rong chimed in, "Yes, yes, the materials from the Rakshasa Bird have made our trip worthwhile."

When Xie Fengnan was in the team before, they would give him scraps regardless of whether he contributed or not. Later, they even increased their efforts because of a bite to eat.

So this time, Xie Fengnan returned the favor. He originally didn't intend to take the materials for the Rakshasa Bird, but the two kept declining, claiming that if he didn't take the bulk, they wouldn't dare take the leftover scraps.

They struggled for a long time.

Finally, Xie Fengnan made the final decision: he agreed to give one to each person to share equally, otherwise he would let them rot on the ground.

For Deng Xiu and Shen Rong at this point, a whole fourth-tier Rakshasa bird is already quite a stroke of luck.

Therefore, they really had no interest in Xiaoxue's collection.

Seeing this, Xie Fengnan gave up.

After announcing their disbandment, Deng Xiu said she was going to check on the situation nearby, and Shen Rong went with her.

Xie Fengnan remained in the cave, turning his attention to Xiaoxue.

"Xiaoxue, what style do you like?"

(Style? What style?)

"Yes, like this—"

Xie Fengnan took out a tendon from some kind of animal and quickly wove it into the shape of a collar.

He compressed the spatial fragments into a bell, attached it to the collar, and then used the floral fabric Shen Rong had given him to make a bow to secure it.

He recalled that the bell collar on his pet in his previous life was basically like this, and since Xiaoxue was a girl, it suited her perfectly!

"Keep your treasured items to yourself. If you don't like this style, I'll alter it for you."

Seeing Xie Fengnan's actions, Xiaoxue suddenly threw herself into Xie Fengnan's arms.

(Waaaaah—Brother Xie, why aren't you Sheng Shi?! I'd definitely steal you as my husband!)

(No beast could escape Xie Ge's grasp after witnessing his tenderness!)

(I really like this style! No need to alter it! Brother Xie, please put it on me!)

Xie Fengnan chuckled and put the collar on Xiaoxue's neck.

At this moment, it also got dark.

Xie Fengnan took out his tools and prepared to cook.

Shen Rong suddenly appeared out of nowhere, shouting, "Brother Xie! Don't move! Let me do it!"

"?" Xie Fengnan typed a question mark.

Deng Xiu followed closely behind, "Brother Xie! You can't be the one doing the cooking!"

"..." It seems that it will be difficult for them to go back to the way things were before.

However, since someone was willing to take over, Xie Fengnan, the "Baizi Brother," was happy to relax and just wait to reap the benefits.
