Quick Transmigration: The Villain is Destiny, the Protagonist Takes a Backseat

Fortunately, he had a system shop that allowed him to secretly prepare special meals for others, so that Ling wouldn't have to save her own food rations just to make sure he was full.

Ji Qiuzhe stood in the open field, feeling the wind blowing from the west, and exhaled a deep breath.

Today, it is determined to catch a wild beast and have a good meal.

This grassland is located on the outskirts of the valley, neither too far nor too close to the territory where the female protagonist Miao Miao and her subordinates are located. Logically speaking, they should not run into each other, but they are just in case.

【33, help me keep an eye on the surroundings. Tell me if any strangers come near.】

【Okay, host.】003 Activate alert mode.

"Ling, let me show you what I can do."

Ji Qiuzhe transformed into his original form, wagging his tail arrogantly and circling Ling halfway around.

After spending half a month together, Ling had gotten to know him a little better.

I knew that was just his personality.

They need to be coaxed, and they're also very good at it.

Ling is not a eloquent snake. Most of the time, she is used to keeping her words to herself. Even when she really wants to say something, the words become silent when they reach her lips.

But this white lion unexpectedly understood him.

Whenever he was unable to express himself, Zhe was able to understand his meaning precisely and provide timely feedback.

Ling was fascinated by this feeling, and even more fascinated by this kind of jujube.

“Okay, I’ll watch.” He stepped back, standing in a safe distance.

The two waited quietly.

The grassland is vast, and small animals occasionally pass by.

In about an hour.

Ji Qiuzhe saw a weasel, a rabbit, several reptiles, and even a pheasant flew by.

Normally, Ling would have pounced on the food as soon as she saw it.

But with Ji Qiuzhe around, fearing he might hinder his actions, Ling controlled his restless body and hid behind a tree to observe the white lion's movements.

Don't cause him any trouble.

Excellent hunters are often very patient.

Ji Qiuzhe crouched in the grass for two full hours. When he saw a wild boar leisurely strolling by, he suddenly rushed out.

A lion's explosive power is astonishing.

Even though she was mentally prepared, Ling was still taken aback.

Once he regained his composure, Ji Qiuzhe had already bitten into the wild boar's neck, his sharp teeth piercing the prey's thick flesh and breaking through the carotid artery.

Instantly, blood splattered.

"Howl—howl—"

All the animals that heard the wild boar's cries scattered and fled.

With the taste of blood filling his mouth, Ji Qiuzhe tightened his grip even more. The wild boar struggled desperately to break free of his hold, but to no avail.

Soon, it stopped twitching and became silent.

Only then did Ling dare to jog closer.

This was the first time he and his companions had captured such a large wild beast, and his eyes shone brightly as he looked at Ji Qiuzhe.

"Zhe, you're amazing."

"That's right, I used to be the bravest lion in the tribe besides Hui," Ji Qiuzhe said proudly.

He added in his mind, "Right now, the most valiant creature in the entire beast world."

When Ling heard this, he thought that Ling missed the Lion Clan tribe and wanted to go back. He felt depressed and even the joy of hunting wild boar faded.

"what happened?"

Ji Qiuzhe noticed that the corners of his mouth were turned down, and he looked like he had something on his mind.

"fine."

Ling was unwilling to voice her despicable thoughts.

This lion is so wonderful; after spending half a month with him, he doesn't want to be separated from him.

But if the lion wants to return to the pride, what reason does he, as an outsider, have to stop it?

"Go back first."

Seeing that he was unwilling to talk, Ji Qiuzhe did not force him.

This place is not a safe place after all. Although his wounds have healed, they are not fully healed. If he encounters orcs, he will be fine on his own, but with Ling by his side, he may not be able to escape unscathed.

Let's take the prey back to the valley first.

Ji Qiuzhe dragged the wild boar by its hind legs, intending to pull it all the way back to the valley.

In half a month, Ji Qiuzhe used the spirit stones in his space to create a protective array for the entire valley.

Unless he gives permission, no orc will notice the small valley where they live, and naturally, they will have no way to enter.

Now, the small valley has become his and Ling's territory.

However, Ling was unaware of these things.

He simply followed silently behind Ji Qiuzhe, watching the tall orc walking ahead, a growing warmth gradually rising in his eyes.

The beastman was tall and imposing, his hands, which were dragging the wild boar, were muscular and the veins were clearly visible, giving him a powerful presence.

If such a dazzling white lion wanted to go back, even if he was an alien, wouldn't that female named Miaomiao not refuse him?

Ling knew that the female was very particular about appearance. Zhe was good-looking and his skills were no less than Hui's. If he wanted to, he could live a good life.

On the contrary, I am a burden.

How to do?

Is there any other reason to keep him here?

Ling is a selfish snake. Even though she knows she is useless, she still wants to try to keep people with her.

"Ling, walk in front of me." Ji Qiuzhe was not used to not being able to find Ling in his sight.

"okay."

Ling snapped out of her thoughts, quickened her pace, and walked ahead of Ji Qiuzhe.

Ji Qiuzhe did not miss the tears in his eyes, and his heart was shaken.

Surely it's not because they feel sorry for the wild boar that they're crying, is it?

There must be some other reason.

Thinking back on the past two weeks, Ling would occasionally space out with a heavy heart, but when asked, she would only say that nothing was wrong. Ji Qiuzhe could no longer hold back and decided to ask her properly when he got back.

[Host, the female lead is here with her people, hurry up and leave.] 003 suddenly spoke up.

Ji Qiuzhe frowned.

I am really afraid of what will happen.

He hoisted the wild boar onto his shoulder, then took Ling's hand. Under Ling's surprised gaze, he remained calm and said, "Someone's coming, let's hurry."

Ling was particularly sensitive to the word 'person'. Upon hearing this, she disregarded everything else and sped up with Ji Qiuzhe.

The two disappeared at the entrance of the valley in no time.

After a while.

Ten orcs came to the wilderness.

The one in the lead was a fair-skinned girl wearing a complete brown leather skirt.

The woman had long, beautiful hair, wore a flower wreath, held a wooden scepter inlaid with rubies, and wore a pair of exquisite Martin boots.

"Hui, I'm tired of venison. Didn't you say you found a big wild boar here? How about we stir-fry some wild boar meat for dinner tonight?"

The girl had rosy lips and white teeth, and when she spoke, her bright, lively eyes blinked, making her look dazzling.

All the male orcs present had their eyes glued to her, unwilling to look away even for a moment.

"Alright, whatever you say, Your Majesty." Hui said with a doting expression.

As he spoke, he subtly shifted his body to block the prying eyes of the other orcs.

"Yes, I knew Hui was the best to me." The girl said, standing on tiptoe and giving Hui a light peck on the lips.

"Here's a kiss for you."

The girl's lips were exceptionally soft; a kiss left the lips feeling as if they still carried the scent of flowers from her body.

Hui covered his face in a daze, a faint pink tinge showing through his dark yellow skin.

Behind him, all the male orcs who witnessed this scene felt their bones melt, and their eyes gleamed green.

I was extremely envious.
