Early the next morning, Xie Yungui put the salt into the carrying basket, while Leng Ran had already transformed into beast form and was lying on the square.

The huge plaza was occupied by Leng Ran's beast form. Because his beast form was so large, Leng Ran had to curl up and lie on the plaza.

"Ugh, Father, you're so careless! Why am I so small?" Leng Yi'an asked, lying on Leng Ran's dragon whiskers.

"When your father was little, he was just as small as you. You'll be fine when you grow up." In his current beast form, Leng Ran has become the smallest version of himself.

"Sigh, if I were as big as my father, I would fly in the sky every day." Leng Yi'an is really small now, not even as thick as one of Leng Ran's dragon whiskers.

"Xiao An, come down quickly, don't bother your father, we're about to leave," Xie Yungui said.

"Dad, why don't you take us with you? I really want to go with you. I'm so small, I just want to hide in your arms!" Leng Yi'an was very unhappy at the thought of not seeing his father and father-in-law for several days.

Although he said he wanted to be a good boy, he just couldn't bear to part with it, and he didn't want to be a good boy anymore.

"No." Xie Yungui disagreed.

"Dad, good dad, please!" Leng Yi'an said, shaking her head back and forth.

"Chieftain, just take him with you. Anyway, Xiao An's beast form is very small, he can just hide in your arms." Yang Ming couldn't stand the little cub's whining.

"Yes, take her with you. Xiao An is too young; she'll miss you." A-Feng agreed.

He can take good care of the little black wolf, but sometimes he can't even hold the little black snake while feeding it because it's too soft.

"Dad, you take my brother and go. I'll wait for you to come back at home." Xie Chuyang had been cold and aloof for several months, but even so, several months was considered a long time in the Beast World.

Xie Chuyang understood perfectly well that his father didn't want him to be upset, and if it were only his younger brother, his father would definitely have taken him along.

But now his beast form has grown much bigger, and his father can no longer carry him. If he goes, his father won't be able to take care of him.

That's right, Xie Chuyang's beast form is already as big as a grown-up husky.

But the little black snake was still very small, as if it were malnourished.

"Then I'll take your little brother with me. Won't you be sad?" Xie Yungui looked at the sensible little wolf cub and couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

"No, because Dad and Father will be back soon. My little brother will cry at night if he misses you, but I'm a big boy now, so I won't cry," Xie Chuyang said.

"Alright, I won't take your brother. You and your brother are both my children. If I were to take your brother, I would definitely take you too. But the exchange day is tiring, and you're both too young. I'll take you when you're a bit older." As soon as Xie Yungui finished speaking, Xie Chuyang immediately became happy.

That's great, Dad treats him and his brother the same way.

"Leng Yi'an, get down here. If you keep disobeying, Daddy will beat you!" Xie Yungui said sternly to his spoiled little snake.

"Okay, okay, Daddy, don't be angry, I'll be a good girl." Then, Leng Yi'an climbed down.

"Chuyang, take good care of your younger brother, okay?" Xie Yungui said.

"Okay, Dad, I'll take good care of my little brother."

"Yes, Dad believes in you!"

Xie Yungui then said to the priest, "Priest, if enemies invade, do not linger in battle. Run directly into the depths of the forest. Also, be sure to keep the venom I gave you safe. Do not ingest it by accident or let the cubs touch it. It can be used to save your lives in a critical moment."

"Don't worry, Chieftain, we understand!"

"Agui, don't worry, my aura has already marked the territory, so orcs usually won't invade at will."

"I know." Xie Yungui said, handing over the last items before climbing onto Leng Ran's back.

Xie Yungui sat on Leng Ran's dragon head. Leng Ran told Xie Yungui to hold the rope and secure it between his two dragon horns so that Xie Yungui could hold onto the rope.

"Alright, Leng Ran, let's go!" Xie Yungui said.

"good!"

Then a dragon's roar resounded, and Xie Yungui carried them into the high sky.

Leng Ran flew very fast, so Xie Yungui made an eye mask out of animal hide, leaving a gap in the middle, because Leng Ran's speed was so fast that it made him feel very uncomfortable.

They flew all day and rested atop a high mountain at night. Leng Ran transformed into human form, ate dried meat with everyone, and rested on animal skins.

As the clan leader and Leng Ran's future partner, Xie Yungui naturally slept on a piece of animal skin with him, while the three of them, including Amon, squeezed onto another piece of animal skin.

It was quite cool on the mountaintop at night, with a constant breeze, making it a very nice place to rest.

Leng Ran pulled Xie Yungui into his arms. Xie Yungui was a little embarrassed, but he didn't refuse.

"Cover your stomachs to avoid catching a cold." Xie Yungui took the animal skin and covered their waists with it.

"Okay!" Leng Ran wasn't actually as calm as he appeared.

This was the first time he and Xie Yungui had been so close while they were both sober, and it was also the first time he had held Xie Yungui as they fell asleep while he was awake.

Ah Gui didn't reject him, that's really great.

Xie Yungui had no idea that Leng Ran was thinking so much. He just felt that since they were going to become partners anyway, what was wrong with sleeping in each other's arms?

After Xie Yungui figured it out, he took the initiative to rest his head on Leng Ran's arm, and Leng Ran instantly felt flattered.

He then embraced Xie Yungui tightly, and they lay down with their arms around each other.

The next morning, as dawn broke, Xie Yungui and Leng Ran got up and headed towards the place of the exchange day once again.

They arrived at Sunset Plains before the sun had set in the afternoon.

Leng Ran's arrival terrified all the orcs from the tribes at the exchange site.

"What's going on? What is that thing in the sky? How can it be so big?" Everyone stared at the creature that blotted out the sky, but no one could figure out what it was!

The elephant tribe chief, Xiang Zhiqiang, looked at the creature in the air and said tremblingly to the horse tribe chief, Ma Lingfeng, "Th-those must be beastmen, right?"

"I think so too, they must be here for the exchange day." Ma Lingfeng's breathing was unsteady.

Because among orcs, there is a distinction between the strong and the weak. The orc in the air is an existence that they cannot touch, and they feel a deep sense of awe for him.

"Leng Ran, let's go down first!" Xie Yungui said, looking at the open space that had been cleared below.

"good!"

Then, Leng Ran slowly landed on the ground, claws pointing downwards, head held high.
