CHAPTER 383: CHAPTER 383: BEAST GOD FOREST (XUAN JIU) 6

Faced with Jinsheng’s questioning, Xuan Jiu’s gaze was evasive, until Jinsheng cradled his face with both hands, forcing him to look at her.

"Wang Dajiu, you’ve grown some guts, huh." Jinsheng leaned closer, smiling at him, "Relying on the fact that I can’t read your mind now, trying to fool me?"

"I’m not..." Xuan Jiu opened his mouth to protest.

"Stop acting pitiful, I don’t need mind reading to see through you." Jinsheng lifted her face proudly.

"Really?" Xuan Jiu’s eyes brightened, looking at her expectantly, "Can you see what I’m thinking now?"

"I see through that you want to pass the throne to me." Jinsheng replied.

Xuan Jiu paused, his long fingers gently teasing Jinsheng’s hair, "But here, a king has a strict requirement, at least to be a member of the Beast Clan."

Ten Stars can achieve complete beastification, let alone now at Twenty Stars.

But Jinsheng is not the same.

In the eyes of the original inhabitants of the Beast God Forest, Jinsheng’s true form is a rock.

"Right now in their eyes, your true form is a rock." Xuan Jiu lowered his gaze deep in thought, seriously thinking of a way, "I have to see, how to make them recognize a rock as the king of the Beast Clan."

"I can transform into the Beast Clan too." Jinsheng answered with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Xuan Jiu’s fox ears perked up.

His fox tail wrapped around, pulling Jinsheng out from the medicinal bath.

The soaking wet Jinsheng fell from the hot bath into even warmer arms.

"What a coincidence." Xuan Jiu feigned surprise, "I happen to have a way to turn you into the Beast Clan."

He carried Jinsheng in his arms, walking towards the bedroom.

Jinsheng reached out to tug at his smooth bathrobe collar, spreading her green fingers before Xuan Jiu, "Really can’t wash it off?"

"Really can’t wash it off." Xuan Jiu nodded firmly, smiling, "But if we warm up the body, the color from the medicinal bath will fade naturally."

"I wasn’t lying to you, either."

"Leaving my scent on you can shield against that probing strength."

"It’s mutual." Xuan Jiu lowered his head, pecking Jinsheng’s lips, "Just relying on myself, without the medicinal bath, I’d similarly be targeted by that strength."

"Yet, with your scent on me, it too can shield me."

Listening to Xuan Jiu’s explanation,

Jinsheng remained silent for a moment before speaking surprisingly, "The scent you claim helps us mutually cover, why does it sound so improper to me?"

"The night is deep." Xuan Jiu grinned, "Isn’t it just right for doing some improper things?"

"Don’t like the herbal scent?" Xuan Jiu thoughtfully carried Jinsheng into the bathroom, "Let me wash it off for you."

Putting Jinsheng in the bathroom, Xuan Jiu flicked his tail at the bathroom door.

With the bathroom door closed, he had no intention of leaving.

Letting Jinsheng sit on the warm stone surface, half-kneeling down, gently holding her ankle to help remove shoes.

His red eyes glanced at Jinsheng, clearly handsome and cold-faced.

But once he opened his mouth, his words were more flattering than anyone’s, "Family Head Jinsheng~ At your service~"

"Then let me play with your fox tail first." Jinsheng spread out her palm, begging in front of him.

Nine fox tails.

In a race to burrow into Jinsheng’s palm.

Jinsheng cradled a heap of snow-white fluffy tails, gently weaving them together.

Since they were beast clan tails formed from energy, there was no need to worry about injuries or other issues.

Looking at the braid she created, Jinsheng lowered her gaze again at Xuan Jiu, who was helping massage her foot sole, reaching out to scratch his chin.

Xuan Jiu squinted contentedly, slightly raised his head, and his pair of fox ears pressed back.

"Look at the braid." Jinsheng first displayed the fox tail braid to him.

Seeing Xuan Jiu’s gentle demeanor, recalling the first time being with him,

He didn’t act gentle at all.

Curious, Jinsheng asked, "Playing with your tail like this, you don’t get angry?"

"Why should I be angry?" Xuan Jiu asked with a laugh, "The night is long, in the first half of the night you play with tails, then come the second half of the night, I would like to..."

He curled his lips, didn’t finish the sentence, just smiled at Jinsheng.

"Wang Dajiu, I knew you were scheming something." Jinsheng laughed in anger, pinching his face.

This time alone, Jinsheng found that besides loving drama, Xuan Jiu,

could endure a lot.

He said second half of the night, and indeed it was the second half of the night.

The next morning, noticing Xuan Jiu getting up, Jinsheng reached out to grab his foxy tail.

Xuan Jiu looked down at his tail being pulled, donned the outer garment, bent down to nuzzle Jinsheng’s face, "Sleep a bit more, I couldn’t sleep any longer."

"Something up?" Jinsheng half-opened one eye to look at him.

"Yes, though not a reliable king, I need to prepare for the Cooking King competition." Xuan Jiu replied.

Endured an entire night.

Here, Jinsheng truly couldn’t hold back.

Getting up, sincerely looking at Xuan Jiu, "Is the criteria for first place in your Cooking King competition determined by who cooks the most poisonous dish?"

"I know!" Jinsheng had a flash of insight, guessing, "On the surface, it’s a Cooking King competition, but actually, it’s a poisoning contest."

"See which contestant can secretly poison the judges, then use an antidote to force the judges to reveal information on the Beast God."

The more she thought, the more Jinsheng felt this guess was reasonable.

In the Cooking King competition, the contestant who poisons the most effectively is the first prize winner.

It makes sense, no doubt at all.

"Jinsheng." Xuan Jiu got angry at her words, opening his mouth to bite her neck.

He used his sharp teeth to gently brush against her neck.

He wanted to bite down but couldn’t bear to.

Only reluctantly asking, "My cooking skills are alright, right?"

"You follow the recipe, with fewer of your own ideas, it’s quite good." Jinsheng nodded.

Just like Su Ye.

Specialized focus.

Su Ye entering the kitchen can only make desserts.

"Seems like you’re not sleepy?" Xuan Jiu gazed deeply at Jinsheng.

Receiving Jinsheng’s confused look back, he reached out and directly pulled her out of the covers, "Then don’t sleep."

"I must prove my cooking skills to you!"

"Is that so?" Jinsheng exaggeratedly surprised, looking at him, "Really looking forward to it~"

Upon hearing her tone, Xuan Jiu knew she harbored huge prejudice against his cooking.

So large it’s like a mountain.

He stressed, "My cooking skills have improved, I am the Kitchen God."

Just as Xuan Jiu helped Jinsheng dress and wash up, taking her out of the underground jelly city, just as they surfaced from the disguised well, a scallion swung and hit his head.

Xuan Jiu looked up to see Caicai seated by the well, brimming with anger from the whole night.

"Wang Dajiu, what are you looking at?" Caicai snapped, reaching out intending to push Xuan Jiu back into the well.

Xuan Jiu quickly sent Jinsheng, cradled by a fox tail, up.

Seeing it’s Jinsheng, Caicai hastily withdrew the scallion intended to press the person.

"Where did you two go last night, why not wait for me?" Caicai complained.

"Adult matters, children don’t ask." Xuan Jiu replied, rubbing the snow-white fox ears amidst Jinsheng’s black hair.

"Hm, looking at you both, definitely not doing anything proper." Caicai huffed coldly.
