Chapter 236 Is this how you try to win favor?
This is such a great ability! Now Linni's partners don't have to look for a place to rest anymore. Sometimes they can't find a tree hole and have to dig a cave on the spot. Now Xuan is carrying a house on his back. Where can't he stay?
Lin Ni and the others entered Xuan's tortoise shell space, choosing the largest room as their living room and the second largest as their bedroom. They could choose the remaining rooms themselves, and use the rest to store their belongings—it was perfect! Moreover, Xuan's tortoise shell house was very cool and comfortable inside, like living underwater. Lin Ni no longer had to stay awake at night.
For several days afterward, he didn't give Xuan and Ling a kind look. His long-awaited exclusive favor had been ruined by this Xuan! No wonder he'd never liked them! What a detestable beast!
Aside from Ye's dissatisfaction, Linni's other companions were quite pleased with Xuan's house. With this house, there was no longer any issue of inconvenience when traveling. So they continued their journey south through the vast North Sea, enjoying themselves without worrying about safety or accommodation, playing freely on the seabed and the surface – they were truly happy.
On the night Linni was resting alone, all the couples slept together. The place was spacious and not hot, and everyone could chat together. Everyone really enjoyed the bedtime talk. Linni lay in Yao's arms and chatted with everyone about the interesting things that had happened in the past few days. The same thing, from different perspectives, brought different feelings.
They spent over thirty days crossing thousands of miles of sea from the northernmost part of the Orcish continent, passing through the central forest, and finally arriving at the southernmost part of the continent: beneath the Vermilion Bird Stele.
Lin Ni and Yan held hands and released the power of the Beast God to pray for blessings under the Vermilion Bird Stele. Yan finally ascended to the Heavenly Rank. In addition to his beast body growing to fifty meters in size, Yan's Heavenly Rank also gave him the ability to start and control fire. His beast body was no longer pitch black, but a colorful black, with red light flowing through it as he flew.
Linni's companions: As expected, the Vermilion Bird and the Phoenix are really similar. This ability is not surprising at all, and feels a bit useless.
The good thing is that Yao no longer needs to function as a gas stove; besides staying by Lin Ni's side, he has become increasingly silent.
Linni had gotten used to Yao's company, but she didn't notice the changes in Yao. After all, she had too many partners around her now. Apart from Ye, who didn't like to talk, the other partners were all quite cheerful and talkative.
Bai, needless to say, is cheerful and a bit of a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur).
Yan, Azhi, and Xuan are all the kind of orcs who can chat with anyone and get along well with anyone.
Ling stayed close to Xuan and would join in the conversation.
Only Tian Tian was a little quiet and introverted. Yao silently stayed by Lin Ni's side, and after finishing his own tasks, Tian Tian would quietly follow Lin Ni and eat various fruits with her.
After spending more than 100 days together, everyone has found their place in this family.
Leaving the towering cliffs for the Tiger Beast Tribe nestled amidst towering mountains, Lin Ni and her companions once again passed by the Moon Pool of First Encounter Mountain. It was now late in the dry season, and the water at the First Encounter Waterfall, which Lin Ni had named the waterfall, had dried up; the harsh jungle life was back on its way. Lin Ni looked at the large rock in front of the cave; the tiger-man statue with its tiger head, human body, and tiger claws was still lifelike, but he was no longer there.
Night said to Linni, "Let's chase those wild beasts away and stay for a few more days?"
Linni shook her head. This place was not suitable for living now. Putting aside the sweltering heat, she didn't want to take away any more of the wild animals' lives.
Azhi looked at the tiger-beastman statue in the middle of the large rock and asked, "Is this Feng?"
Linni nodded.
Xuan and Ling: Is this the partner Xiao Linni said they caused her to lose? She even said she'd make the Beast God punish them if she saw him. She probably won't do that now, right? Speaking of which, the day they're supposed to awaken the Beast God is getting closer.
Bai remembered that Feng had once said here that he wanted to put a large stone at the entrance of the Tiger Beast Tribe and write the words "Tiger Beast Tribe" on it, so he silently kept it in mind.
A-Zhi said, "Didn't you say I look like Feng? Just look at me when you miss him."
Linni turned to look at Azhi. The shyness on his face had disappeared, and he didn't resemble Feng as much anymore. Linni shook her head and said, "After we became partners, I no longer felt that you resembled him."
Ah-zhi tugged at her clothes from behind and said, "So you were just using that as an excuse to lie to me back then, right?"
Linni said helplessly, "Yes!"
Why did she think that A-Zhi was like Feng? Feng is such an honest person, but A-Zhi keeps saying that she bullies him, even though he's the one who asked her to do it!
Ah Zhi hugged her from behind, biting her earlobe and saying, "I knew you were saying that on purpose!"
Linni slapped his hand in an annoyance: "Didn't you say I was gentle and cute, and that it was an honor for you to be liked by me? So now you think I'm the kind of scheming, bad woman?"
Ah-Zhi buried his head in her hair: "You must have put a spell on my heart to make me follow you so willingly. You should kiss me more and comfort my fragile heart."
Linni pushed him away, then turned around and bit him on the chest, then kissed him again, looking up at him and asking, "Is this okay?"
Ah Zhi lowered his head and gently kissed her lips: "Okay."
Yan: I never knew you were such a white-faced eagle, Azhi.
Night, White, Mysterious, and Spirit: Is this how you compete for favor?
Tian Tian: I have no idea what happened.
They spent half a day exploring the area, had lunch, and then left.
Linni suggested visiting the Ape Beast Tribe to meet Aya and Axin, a few friendly females. Speaking of which, Aya was her teacher who guided her on how females cultivate! If Aya hadn't told her the cultivation method, Yao might not have been able to appear by her side in time to save her.
When everyone heard her say that, of course they wanted to go.
The next day they arrived at the territory of the Ape Tribe. Upon entering the dense forest, the tribe's chimpanzee chieftain, leading over twenty male beastmen, soon came to greet them. Seeing Linni, his tense expression visibly relaxed, and he beamed, quickly walking over and saying, "Lovely and beautiful Linni, we meet again! What brings you to the Ape Tribe?"
Linni smiled at him and said, "Chief of the Ape Beast Tribe, hello! Just like last year, I'm heading to the Tiger Beast Tribe and will be passing through your Ape Beast Tribe. I haven't seen Aya in a long time, so I thought I'd come and see her."
