Wu Yue nodded. "It’s quite obvious. The Life Force in the Flying Eagle Tribe’s eggs must have started disappearing before they even arrived at our tribe.
And because I have Healing Witch Power, my Life Force is stronger—that’s why the invisible thing reacted so intensely.
It must have attacked just now because it wanted to devour my Life Force."
Upon hearing this, the Flying Eagle Witch turned to look at the three eagle eggs in the corner. "What on earth is this thing? Our Flying Eagle Tribe’s eggs were always fine before. The hatchlings always erged healthy."
His eyes, fixed on the three eagle eggs, were filled with killing intent. But everyone else in the cave knew that this intent wasn’t aid at the eggs, but at the unseen thing.
But they were helpless. They knew this intangible thing was devouring the eggs’ Life Force, but they had no way of dealing with it.
"Witch, Yuan Lang has returned. He’s outside the cave."
The Snow Tiger Witch sighed heavily. "Let him co in."
Wu Yue couldn’t help but look toward the cave entrance. ’Co to think of it, I haven’t seen Yuan Lang for days,’ she thought. ’And that jerk really left in a bind before he took off.’
At that thought, her gaze toward the cave entrance grew sowhat chilly.
As Yuan Lang walked into the cave, dangling the Blue Fatty from his hand, he felt a very familiar Death Gaze.
Without hesitation, he lifted the Blue Fatty and held the fluffy, chubby ball out to Wu Yue. "For you."
Dangling by the scruff of its neck, the Blue Fatty caught a familiar scent. It instantly lifted its fluffy, round head. Its small, black-bean-like eyes shone brightly as it began to struggle toward Wu Yue, waving its chubby little paws.
As it struggled, it let out a series of baby-like yelps—AWOO! AWOO! AWOO!—that would soften anyone’s heart.
But the female standing before it was no ordinary woman. Wu Yue snorted. "You trickster. You think bringing back a fat furball is going to get you off the hook?"
Yuan Lang, of course, knew what she was talking about. He rubbed his nose guiltily. "I misrembered. It must have been that guy, Teng Qian."
"AWOO! AWOO! AWOO!"
Wu Yue was about to say more when, after another round of baby-like yelps, the System’s familiar voice echoed in her mind. ’My dear Host, waaah! Save , quick! This rude Beastman dangled by the scruff of my neck the whole way back! I feel like my skin is about to fall off!’
All the while, it kept struggling, trying to throw itself into Wu Yue’s arms.
Wu Yue’s face was a mask of disbelief. She tentatively took the Blue Fatty from the Beastman’s hand. Holding it up by its two front paws, she scrutinized it for a long ti before asking in her mind, ’Holy shit, are you really my System?’
The Blue Fatty in her hands gave a smug little wiggle of its butt, its hind legs still dangling in the air. ’The one and only! I didn’t have enough points to redeem a Beastman body, so I could only choose a beast.
’Host, aren’t you going to praise ?
’I even specially picked this Salt Crystal Beast as my vessel, all so you’d have salt to eat in the future!’
Wu Yue reached out and ruffled the fur on its round, roly-poly head. ’Let’s not talk about that right now. There’s so kind of bug here. It’s been coveting my witch power for a long ti and keeps trying to attack , but I can’t see it.
’It seems to have co with the eagle eggs from the Flying Eagle Tribe. Can you scan the area and tell what on earth it is?’
