Xiu Yan snorted disdainfully, all too familiar with his little companion's nature. When she apologized cutely, she was sincere, but when it came to being bold, she never shrank away.
With a helpless sigh, he ruffled her already messy hair roughly a few more times before extending a hand to pull her toward the nearby riverbank.
Ji Nuan was also aware that her actions today were really quite risky, so she behaved very well along the way.
By the riverbank, Ji Nuan sorted the fruit that Xiu Yan had gathered, placing the broken ones in a basket set aside to later feed the camels.
The intact fruits were placed in a new basket for them and the camels to eat on the road.
This time, most of the prey Xiu Yan caught was still alive, except for one Long-eared Beast that seemed to have bled to death.
At night, the two beasts stewed the remaining Humming Beast and the Long-eared Beast in two full pots.
