Chapter 1028 In this beast-world novel, the queen's puppy is fierce and ruthless! 20
When the camp finally quieted down completely, with only the night patrol guards keeping watch, Jiao Xi, who should have been fast asleep, slowly sat up.
At this time, because they were in the wild, most of the orcs had reverted to their animal forms to keep warm and rest. He even saw that his king had unconsciously transformed himself into a snow-white tiger, lying there obediently and even snoring softly.
Jiao Xi wanted to get closer; even her beast-like appearance was so cute that it made him want to touch her. However, he also knew that if he approached her now, it would only arouse the girl's suspicion.
She appears completely unguarded, but at the slightest disturbance, she can instantly rise and pounce on her prey.
If he hadn't been so excited that he couldn't sleep, Jiao Xi wouldn't have been so delighted that he sat up and looked at her.
He subconsciously touched his still numb cheek. He had previously thought that he would receive her pity for being injured, but this was actually the first time he had ever touched his face.
Just a touch sent a jolt through him.
I never expected him to appear in front of his little girl in this state. You can feel how swollen he is just by touching him. It's a far cry from his usual refined appearance.
Jiao Xi used to not care about appearance. In his view, his own strength was the foundation of his existence, and beauty and ugliness were not worth mentioning.
During a hunt, prey won't necessarily bite you less just because you're good-looking, but if you're extremely ugly, they might spare you because you're too repulsive...
Unfortunately, none of the Jiaolong (蛟) were particularly ugly.
But things are different now. He's facing the king he loves because of his identity as a "beautiful rabbit boy," while his queen prefers delicate-looking, frail-looking men...
Jiao Xi felt like the sky was about to fall when he realized that he had been standing in front of her with such an ugly face for so long, and even pretended to be weak.
Jiao Xi leaned against the tree, anxiety binding him like threads.
His fingers unconsciously rubbed his swollen cheeks, his red eyes filled with irritation. No, he absolutely couldn't let the little girl see him like this!
Thinking of this, Jiao Xi took a deep breath and quietly circulated the power of the Jiao clan within his body.
This power can slowly repair bodily damage. If he hadn't deliberately avoided repairing his injuries in the first place, hoping to gain the guilt and affection of his beloved girl through this, he could now make the injuries begin to heal.
The pale blue light gently healed his cheeks, though it wasn't very noticeable even in the moonlight.
Jiao Xi felt the swelling in her skin slowly subside and the numbness gradually disappear before she stopped exerting force.
He didn't plan to restore his face to its original state tomorrow, but he needed to get it back to normal within four or five days.
He touched his cheek; his skin had mostly regained its firmness and smoothness, but a faint bluish tinge remained, barely noticeable unless you looked closely.
That's right, this is exactly what Jiao Xi was thinking. The seemingly concealed blue color represents an injury, and it's best to leave it for four or five days, or even better, three days...
In the early morning, Miaomiao woke up first again, only to find the rabbit-tribe boy curled up asleep not far away. His body was clean, and although there was still green medicine on his face, it was clear that the swelling on his cheeks had gone down.
In the morning light, his white fur shimmered with a soft sheen, which only added a touch of pitifulness to his delicate face.
However, after Miaomiao transformed back into human form, Axi suddenly opened her eyes, her previously confused gaze now filled with dependence as she looked at Miaomiao.
"Your Majesty, you're awake!"
"I...I found some fresh berries this morning, washed them, would you like some?"
It turned out he had already gone out, and Miaomiao hadn't even noticed.
Well, perhaps Jiao Xi also misunderstood one thing, which is that the Queen he thought was extremely vigilant was actually completely still once she fell asleep.
As Jiao Xi spoke, she took out the berries wrapped inside from a large leaf beside her and carefully handed them to Miao Miao.
The red berries were plump and glistening with morning dew, clearly indicating that he had gotten up early to find them.
Miaomiao looked at the berries he offered her, then at the dark circles under his eyes, and her guilt deepened.
She took the berry, took a bite, and found it sweet.
"Thanks for your hard work."
"I am delighted to serve Her Majesty!"
Ah Xi quickly shook her head. As the sky gradually brightened, Miao Miao noticed that the side of Ah Xi's face that she had thought was green had actually become even lighter.
Aside from a few colors, it seemed as if the punch I threw at him last night was just an illusion.
Isn't A-Xi's recovery ability a bit too strong?
At this moment, Jiao Xi looked at him with bright, adoring eyes, like a little fan chasing a star in interstellar space, making Miao Miao unable to say anything else.
But perhaps it was because she couldn't bear to, that A-Xi stayed completely by Miao Miao's side for the rest of the journey.
Wherever Miaomiao went, he followed timidly, always carrying something precious that the tigers wouldn't notice.
Sometimes it's fresh berries, sometimes it's herbs that are good for the body, and sometimes it's even pretty stones that you don't know where you found them.
Don't be surprised, other orcs might just think this stone is pretty, but Miaomiao recognizes it.
After all, those stones are called pearls and diamonds in other dimensions.
Miaomiao didn't know if they should be together in the wilderness, but given the uncertainties of the beast world, this little thing didn't catch her attention.
"If Your Majesty gets tired, you can hold it in your hands and play with it."
In addition, Miaomiao discovered that although Jiaoxi was weak, she was able to keep up with the pace of their tribe. Even when they encountered difficult sections of the road and struggled to walk, she followed closely without uttering a sound. Her red eyes were full of stubbornness, but she did not complain at all.
Miaomiao recalled what he had said about his family being killed by the python clan and now he was all alone. She also remembered the dependent look in his eyes when he saw her. Although she knew she still needed to be vigilant, she felt a strange sense of responsibility.
Even her walk carried a hint of pride...
When facing Jiao Xi, his usual coldness and authority towards his warriors changed, replaced by a gentle tone of care for his young.
"Take it slow, no rush."
When A-Xi hears Miao Miao's words, her eyes become even brighter, and she walks with even more vigor. However, her hand will timidly and quietly reach out and gently grab the corner of Miao Miao's animal skin, as if she is afraid of losing her or being abandoned by Miao Miao.
This dodder-like dependence was something Miaomiao had never encountered before, but she didn't dislike it.
What was unknown was that Jiao Xi only showed this soft and gentle side in front of her. When he was away from Miao Miao's sight and faced other male beastmen of the Tiger Clan, although he still looked harmless, he could still make people feel a subtle distance.
It was as if his dependence was reserved only for the Queen.
Hu Lie and the others saw this and nodded in approval.
This Ah Xi is not only beautiful, but also has a strong ability to heal wounds. She is so attached to the king that she doesn't get beaten up, and she worships the king so much. She is simply the best choice to be the king's consort in the tribe.
If Wang Zhen chooses him, he will definitely be well taken care of in the future.
In orc tribes, ordinary orcs may be monogamous or even have no wife.
However, as members of the royal family, they could practice polygamy or polyandry.
In polyandry, the most numerous concubines are the husband's servants...
