After transmigrating, she became the most beloved beast in the world.

Chapter 18 Ink Serpent Totem

Chu Xinyao took Xiaohua into the carriage and took out a water bag to drink water in order to cover up her embarrassment.

"Sister Xinyao, are you going to mate with Master?"

"Cough cough cough," Chu Xinyao choked on the water, put down the water bag, and glared at her.

Chu Xinyao's cheeks flushed slightly. She cleared her throat and said, "Xiaohua, what's going on in your head? We were just discussing some important things. Maybe...maybe we were close and seemed a little intimate, but it was all a misunderstanding." Chu Xinyao's voice trembled slightly as she tried to persuade Xiaohua.

Xiao Hua's gaze towards Chu Xinyao gradually turned to sympathy. Her master's paws touched Xinyao's slender waist, and her master even bit her soft, fragrant lips. Xinyao was still saying that they were just close by.

Xiao Hua blinked, looking puzzled: "Misunderstanding? But Sister Xin Yao, the way Master looked at you was like...like he saw a delicious bouncy beast, as if he wanted to swallow it whole."

Sister Xinyao, you're so pitiful. You must have never had a female mother to teach you!

Chu Xinyao noticed that Xiaohua's gaze towards her was becoming increasingly strange. She unconsciously touched her lips, where the sensation from earlier still lingered, without any stinging pain, indicating there was no injury. "Xiaohua, you...you don't understand. Things between adults are very complicated."

Xiaohua tilted her head, deep in thought. Finally, she made up her mind and spoke the words her mother had taught her: "Is it complicated? But my mother said that if a male is attracted to a female, he will want to mate with her, which is natural. However, after mating, the female will give birth to offspring, which is very dangerous. So, Sister Xinyao, if you want to mate with the master, you should think it over carefully. It's best to return to the tribe and undergo a mating ceremony under the blessing of the high priest before mating."

Xiao Hua's words made her blush with embarrassment, and Xiao Hua's long speech made her feel that she was being particularly frivolous.

[You're only just realizing how frivolous you are? I have no idea what you were thinking. You suddenly acted like that, it's really...] Long Tingting shook her head.

Seeing Xiaohua staring at her, Chu Xinyao didn't know how to respond to Xiaohua's bluntness. "Xiaohua, let's... let's change the subject."

Xiao Hua nodded, but secretly made a decision: since Sister Xin Yao didn't understand, she would put in more effort to prevent Sister Xin Yao from being bullied by the master.

Chu Xinyao sensed a newfound determination in Xiaohua's gaze. She smiled slightly, trying to change the subject. "Xiaohua, how much longer until we get there? I'm getting a little tired of being in the car all day."

Xiao Hua hummed in agreement. "It will be several more days, but we will stop at a small village to rest later tonight."

Chu Xinyao breathed a sigh of relief; she had finally managed to fool her.

Perhaps feeling awkward, Chu Xinyao didn't touch Mo again until they arrived at that small tribe. All the food was delivered to the car by the siblings Xiaohua and Dashu.

This tribe was larger than the two tribes Chu Xinyao had encountered before. The altar in the center even had a totem hanging on it, depicting a legendary animal she knew. It resembled a snake, but had horns on its head, a pair of claws under its belly, and its body was covered in black scales.

Chu Xinyao's gaze was drawn to the strange totem, and she didn't even notice Mo coming to her side.

"How impressive!"

"What's so impressive?" Mo Gang had just arrived and hadn't heard Xin Yao's words clearly.

Chu Xinyao pointed to the totem on the flag in the center of the altar, "Look at their totem."

Mo naturally knew what the tribe's totem was. His expression turned slightly cold, and the enthusiasm that had just risen upon his arrival was extinguished in an instant.

"Hmm, the Ink Serpent Totem, what's wrong?" His throat was a little dry, and the veins on his hands were bulging. He didn't know how he would react if Chu Xinyao said something that showed her disgust.

"How majestic! Where I'm from, snakes with horns on their heads are called dragons, and they're incredibly powerful beings." Chu Xinyao looked at the totem with longing. Finally, she saw an animal that existed on Earth, albeit a legendary one.

"Aren't you...aren't you scared?" Mo's voice came from beside me.

Chu Xinyao turned her head and looked at him with a puzzled expression. "Why should I be afraid?"

"The Ink Serpent, the creature depicted on the totem, is the most cunning and treacherous beastman on the Beast God Continent. All beastmen on the continent avoid the Ink Serpent tribe like the plague, and females are most unwilling to mate with male Ink Serpents because the Ink Serpent tribe firmly believes that only a monogamous relationship can last, but..."

"Where are there still any Mo Snake Clan members left?" Chu Xinyao asked, her eyes sparkling with anticipation as she looked at Mo.

"what?"

"Can you take me to the Ink Serpent Tribe?"

Mo asked with some surprise, "You want to go to the Ink Serpent Tribe, why?"

"I've decided to go there and find a male orc to be my mate. How wonderful it would be to be together for life."

This perfectly aligns with her views as a human from Earth. Despite her love of fun, she is fundamentally very conservative.

"One life, one love... one person?" Mo murmured, a sentence he had never heard before, yet it touched him deeply.

He gave Chu Xinyao a deep look and said, "The Ink Serpent Clan rarely travels outside. If you want to form a partnership with an Ink Serpent Clan member, it requires fate. Although this small tribe does not have any Ink Serpent Clan members, they worship the Ink Serpent totem and must know something about the Ink Serpent Clan. Why don't you go and inquire about it?"

"Oh right, I'll go ask around and see if there's anyone suitable for me in the Ink Serpent Clan. Little Flower, come quick, come with me." Chu Xinyao beckoned to Little Flower. There were a few females nearby, and she was about to go over and join the fun.

As she turned around, Mo's hand rose slightly, and an imperceptible force quietly covered Chu Xinyao's beautiful face.

Behind them, Ah Da suddenly appeared, his expression excited, and he could hardly control his voice, "My lord, Miss Chu actually acknowledges our Ink Serpent Clan, so is she the Holy Maiden who descended specifically for our Ink Serpent Clan? My lord, you have a chance! Our Ink Serpent Clan also has hope of rising again."

"Okay, keep your voice down. Although this place is remote, we should still be cautious. Next, we'll change our route and head back to the tribe." I wonder what Xin Yao's expression will be when she finds out that I am the Ink Serpent Chieftain, and what about that... kiss earlier?

Mo was filled with complex emotions. He gently traced his lips with his fingers, and the soft touch left him feeling restless for a long time.

A fleeting, almost imperceptible tenderness flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly concealed by his usual composure.

Chu Xinyao's yearning for "one love for one lifetime" coincides with the traditional values ​​of the Ink Serpent Clan. Could it be that she really...

Suddenly, his expression changed. Chu Xinyao said she wanted to find a member of the Ink Serpent Clan to be her partner, but he didn't reveal his identity. What did that kiss between them mean?

She was definitely playing me for a fool!

Chu Xinyao successfully found out about the high-quality male beast of the Ink Serpent Clan. The man was the clan leader of the Ink Serpent Clan, born with red-rank aptitude, 27 years old this year, and had already advanced to the eighth-rank beastman seven years ago.

He was a renowned expert on the mainland, which piqued Chu Xinyao's interest even more.

“27 years old, not much different from my age.” She was completely oblivious to the strange-looking Xiao Hua beside her.

"Sister Xinyao..." Is it really going to be a couple with the master? She and her brother have been with the master for several years now. When she was younger, she didn't realize that the master was really not suitable to be a partner.

The master always has a cold face, but lately, whenever he's with Sister Xinyao, he's seen smiling. Xiaohua shook her head; the master must have an ulterior motive.

Her master was utterly inconsiderate. When she was little, she fell down in front of him, and he simply walked away without batting an eye. But lately, he'd been helping Xin Yao remove fish bones, noticed the chafing on her shoulders from her animal-skin skirt, and thoughtfully made many preparations for her. Xiao Hua shook her head again. It must be an illusion; her master definitely had an ulterior motive.

But what is the master's purpose?

Xiao Hua looked up at Chu Xin Yao's face, which was under an illusion. Her beautiful face was completely covered by her master, except for her bright red lips. Yes, she understood. Her master wanted to become partners with Sister Xin Yao!

Hmph, bad master, she won't do as he wishes.

A female as good as Sister Xinyao deserves to be pampered and loved by many beastmen, so that she cannot be monopolized by her master.
