Chapter 97 Leave

In the pitch-black cave, a small branch with a golden halo and as thick as a thumb fell to the ground.

Wen Shu was stunned for two seconds before realizing what it was.

Therefore, Wu Xuan was able to always remain sane thanks to the branches of this sacred tree.

But she didn't have the heart to care about that right now.

"Are you able to speak?"

Wen Shu's eyes sparkled with surprise, and she hugged the black panther's fluffy head tightly.

Feeling the female's warm and soft body pressed tightly against the side of his face, Wu Xuan's body trembled, and the whole beast froze in place in a daze. There was only one thought whizzing through his mind.

The female was holding him.

Ah Shu actually took the initiative to hug him!
He was so excited that his whole body was hot, and he wanted to turn back into human form, hug her and kiss her, and let her know how much he missed her during this time!
But when his eyes fell on that branch, his round ears drooped down, and he couldn't help but think of his ugly appearance now.

No… He couldn't let the female see him like this.

Noticing his dejection, Wen Shu thought he was still worried about his injuries, so she took a few steps back and held up his huge hairy head with both hands.

Facing his golden, round eyes, she said seriously, "It will only take a few days for your injury to heal. Then, we will leave Aruntia together."

She stared at Wu Xuan deeply, and recalled everything that happened tonight in her mind.

These frequent early-moving plots are like death warrants, and she no longer wants to wait until everything is ready.

She has now been promoted to level five. Ordinary level seven orcs are no match for her. In this dense forest, she has the ability to survive.

Moreover, Wu Xuan was there to accompany her.

As for other people or things...

Musier must have left, and Nan's injuries were healing on their own. She had paid off what the original owner owed them.

She had no worries in Aruntia. The only problem she had was the crystal coins.

However, she could earn crystal coins in other countries, but now that she had lost her life, she didn't even have the chance to make money.

After making up her mind, Wen Shu curled her lips, a smile appeared at the corners of her eyes, and she looked straight into the golden pupils in front of her. "It's time, Wu Xuan, are you still willing to come with me now?"

Her smiling eyes were so close to him that Wu Xuan's pupils slowly dilated and his heart seemed to skip a beat.

He stared at him quietly.

He just felt that this dim tree hole, which had carried his painful days and nights, was now brightened by the soft light in her eyes and became less suffocating.

And the words the female asked were so familiar.

He felt a warmth in his throat, and suppressing his heavy and disordered heartbeat, he said the same words as before, "I do."

Still the answer without hesitation.

His golden pupils flickered with light. He lowered his head, rubbed Wen Shu's cold cheek, and said firmly, "Of course I do."

The fluffy touch rubbed against her cheek, and Wen Shu's heart melted. She couldn't help but hug the black panther that was so close to her, burying her face in the soft fur on his chest.

The sound of the male's heart beating lingered in her ears. She felt the burning temperature on the side of her face, and it seemed that the cold and hard defense in her heart was also burned and broken.

The tree hole is filled with warm tranquility.

Ever since she inexplicably entered this book, Wen Shu had never felt so warm and secure.

She nestled quietly in Black Panther's chest, her tired spirit slowly relaxing, and she gradually fell into a deep sleep with the sound of soft breathing beside her ear.

Sensing the female's dependence, Wu Xuan slowed down his breathing, his eyes quietly falling on her sleeping profile, and he felt a trembling tenderness in his heart.

The man and the beast snuggled together and fell asleep. In the dark corner, the branch emitting a faint light suddenly lit up for a moment, then quickly returned to silence.

The next morning, a strong smell of meat woke Wen Shu from her sleep.

She stretched and walked slowly towards the source of the smell. When she saw the absurd scene in front of her, she almost couldn't hold back her laughter.

Beside the crackling fire, Wu Xuan, in the form of a black panther, was squatting in a very serious manner, wrapping branches with his thick tail and roasting rabbit meat in an awkward manner.

Hearing the footsteps, he turned to look at her, his golden eyes filled with a hot and drowning affection.

"Ashu, you're awake!"

His eyes lit up, he was in a frenzy of excitement, his thick tail swayed as he leaned towards the fire, and suddenly it ignited!
Wen Shu was stunned for two seconds, but Wu Xuan was still unaware and slowly approached her.

Now she couldn't laugh anymore, and hurriedly grabbed the hide to put out the fire, still reminding him, "The tail is on fire!"

After a brief interlude, Wen Shu cleaned the processed rabbit meat and looked at the black panther suspiciously.

Apart from human hands, she couldn't think of any animal that could skin a rabbit so cleanly.

But the other person's face was full of seriousness, and when he looked at her, he looked confused, as if he was completely unaware of what she was doubting.

However, Wen Shu could probably guess why he didn't want to transform into a human form...

She gnawed on a rabbit leg while thinking about his treatment, her eyes scanning the ordinary tree hole.

But when her gaze fell on the cave entrance, she suddenly met a pair of old and cloudy eyes.

Wen Shu stood up suddenly, and then saw Yining's tall figure leap into the cave.

Meeting her gaze, Yining's light brown eyes flashed with surprise, but turned into worry when he saw the black panther behind her, "Wen Shu female, are you okay?"

Seeing them suddenly appear, Wu Xuan on the side quickly became alert.

The meticulous priest Lahan glanced at him, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he shifted his gaze to Wen Shu's face.

"Hand over your stuff!"

His deep voice was tinged with anger.

His eyes were full of vigilance and threats, as if he had determined that the female in front of him was a cunning thief who hid treasures.

Wen Shu certainly knew what he was talking about.

Although she did not like the attitude of the Lahan priests, she was leaving soon and did not want to conflict with them.

More importantly, that piece of sacred tree branch plays a vital role in Bai Qiao's saving the beast world. She also wants to survive here, so naturally she will not destroy it intentionally.

"Wait a moment."

She touched Wu Xuan's back and said in a low voice, "They are here to look for that branch."

Afraid that Wu Xuan didn't know the importance of this thing, she added: "It should be a sacred object, very important to Beast City."

After understanding what she meant, Wu Xuan had no doubt at all. He walked into the cave frankly, picked up the branches and leaves, and handed them to Wen Shu.

When the prejudiced Lahan priest saw that they had indeed hidden the sacred branches and leaves, his tone became even more aggressive, "Hand them over now! You can't afford the consequences of stealing such a valuable item!"

He was so noisy that it was annoying. Wen Shu controlled his temper and took three or two steps closer, ready to throw the branch into his hands, but Priest Ke Lahan suddenly raised his hand and grabbed the branch.

And just as he touched the branches, a golden light suddenly rose from his chest and flew straight towards the branches at Wen Shu's fingertips.

She was startled and wanted to dodge, but the branches and leaves at her fingertips shone brightly with golden light and instantly climbed up and bit her palm.
