Chapter 257 Our partner, of course, should be with us.
This was an ordinary day in the springtime of the Orcish Continent, but it was also destined to be an extraordinary one.
The long, gloomy day suddenly brightened. Everyone looked up in surprise and saw a brilliant flame burst forth from the sun, illuminating the entire sky with golden light. As the flame descended, they slowly came to see its form—a magnificent phoenix—the Beast God of their Beastman continent! The Beast God had returned! The phoenix soared towards the central forest and landed on the highest and only volcano on the Beastman continent. The sky returned to calm, the broken clouds slowly gathered again, and a light drizzle began to fall once more.
The most powerful orcs in the rainforest, the towering cliffs, the endless mountains, and the vast northern sea jumped in surprise. The return of the Beast God wasn't the most important thing to them. What mattered most was that they felt the bond of their companion marks again! They immediately rushed towards the central forest.
Yao carried Lin Ni to the top of the volcano. At the summit was a huge hot spring lake, its surface shrouded in mist. Yao took off her backpack and tossed it where Lin Ni couldn't see it, then they both plunged into the warm water. Then Yao embraced Lin Ni and began kissing her passionately and urgently, like lovers reunited after a long separation, eager to unite with her.
Lin Ni was a little confused by his enthusiasm. They had been intimate every day before, so why was he suddenly so agitated? But she couldn't resist Yao's passion. Completely helpless in the middle of the lake, she could only cling to him tightly. The two swam and rolled like fish in the lake, their passionate encounter lasting a long time. When Yao finally embraced her contentedly, Lin Ni hugged him and asked, "Yao, what's wrong? Didn't you believe I would come back to the Phoenix Realm with you?"
“No, you said you wouldn’t go back on your word, I believe you.” Yao kissed her, then said, “It’s just that the suppression I felt in the Huaxia Realm was too severe, I’ve never been able to fully enjoy myself!” With that, he lifted her up, then a red platform materialized on the lake’s surface, transforming them from being in the lake to being on land. Then Yao kissed her again and pressed down on her: “I want you!”
Lin Ni: No wonder his time was halved when he was in China. Was it because of the pressure from the world? She thought it was because he lived in a small house with his parents and was afraid they would hear him! So men are really that concerned about time? Actually, she thinks it's better if the time is shorter!
Linni lay atop the spacious volcano, where she could see the sky with a single glance. A light rain was falling, but it seemed to be stopped mid-rain by something—perhaps some kind of barrier? There was a sense of security, like being in a private space where no one would discover her, and a feeling of vast emptiness, as if the sky were her blanket and the earth her mat, and only the two of them existed in the world. So Linni recklessly reciprocated Yao's passion; she no longer suppressed herself, and she began to sing at the top of her lungs…
The two fought fiercely from noon until midnight, finally falling asleep in each other's arms under the moonlight.
As dawn broke, Linni was woken up by hunger. She hadn't eaten much yesterday, yet she had still used up a lot of energy.
"Hungry?" Yao looked at her with a satisfied smile. As Lin Ni nodded, the platform beneath them disappeared, and the two took another bath in the hot spring lake. Yao somehow grabbed her hiking backpack, and Lin Ni put on her own hoodie. Yao also conjured up a similar outfit for her, and then carried her a few steps from the mountaintop to the foot of the mountain.
Yao carried her to a large house facing north. In the middle was a stone house, to the left was a tall tree, and to the right was a bamboo house. There were also many bamboo and peach trees planted next to and behind the house.
As soon as the two reached the front of the house, A-Zhi and Tian-Tian came out from the stone house in the middle.
A-Zhi and Tian-Tian were both extremely excited and eagerly looking at Lin-Ni: "Lin!"
Lin Ni glanced at Yao, who smiled at her, put her down, and pushed her towards A-Zhi and Tian Tian: "Go ahead."
As Lin Ni was about to walk towards A-Zhi and Tian-Tian, the two rushed over and hugged her tightly.
Every day she would say, "Lin, you're finally back!"
Ah-Zhi said, "Lin, I've finally waited for you!"
The three embraced quietly for a while. Lin Ni pushed the other two away, noticing how much they had matured. A-Zhi was thinner than before, and his narrow eyes were a little red, making him look particularly pitiful. Tian Tian was no longer the naive, spoiled boy he once was; he now exuded a gentle and composed aura. Lin Ni smiled at them: "I told you to wait for me to come back, and I didn't lie to you."
A-Zhi kissed her cheek, hugged her, and said, "Mmm! I know you're a good woman who keeps her word."
Linni kissed him back: "No, I'm a little woman who has you all in my heart."
Then the two kissed.
Tian Tian looked at Yao with shining eyes and said, "Boss, thank you for bringing Lin back."
Yao smiled: "Our partner should, of course, be with us!"
It wasn't until Linni's stomach started to rumble that the four of them entered the stone house together. Inside, there was a square eight-immortal table, on which were already laid a pot of meat soup, a dish of braised meat with bamboo shoots, a plate of dumplings, and two bamboo tubes of rice. The aroma of the food filled the entire room. Linni exclaimed in surprise, "You've made so much delicious food?"
Azhi said, "The Beast God told us early this morning to prepare food for you. We hope you like it."
Linni glanced at Yao; he was still as considerate as ever. Then Linni smelled the burning smell of meat and couldn't help but ask, "What's cooking in there?"
Azhi said awkwardly, "I'm frying the meat for you... You drink the soup first, and I'll go make you something else!" Then she ran into the kitchen.
Lin Ni noticed that the layout of the house resembled the stone houses of the Bear Beast Tribe, but it was much larger and had more rooms. Tian Tian pulled Lin Ni's hand and sat her down at the octagonal table, where four wooden bowls were already laid out. Tian Tian poured a bowl of soup for Lin Ni and Yao each: "Lin, Boss, you two have your soup first."
Linni was really hungry, so she didn't stand on ceremony and took a spoonful. The fragrant meat broth filled her mouth; the food he made every day was getting better and better. The broth wasn't too hot either; it was just right to drink now. After she finished the broth, Tian Tian would serve her rice.
The bamboo rice was filled with various side dishes, and the aroma of meat made Lin Ni even hungrier. Lin Ni quickly ate half a bowl of rice before looking up at her partner. Yao was beside her, eating with her and serving her food. Tian Tian also filled a bowl of soup for himself, but he didn't drink it, keeping his bright, peach-blossom eyes fixed on Lin Ni.
