During the whole day, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian harvested 56 yellow fruits that could increase the strength attribute, Xia Ruize kept 26 and gave Cheng Huaiqian 30.
There were 112 red fruits that could increase the agility attribute. Xia Ruize kept 52 and gave Cheng Huaiqian 60.
48 of the blue fruit that could increase the mental power attribute were dropped, Xia Ruize left himself 40, and gave 8 to Cheng Huaiqian.
The white fruit, which could increase physical attributes, dropped 76 pieces, and the two divided 38 pieces.
That is to say, in one day, Xia Ruize’s attributes had increased by 15.6 points, and Cheng Huaiqian’s attributes had also increased by 13.6 points, the day´s benefits of the two people were about 15,000 survival points.
More importantly, not only did they benefit from it, but they also brought 20 newcomers with them, each of which gained 0.3 to 1 attribute point. Of course, Xia Ruize was very satisfied with this kind of gain.
The exhausted Xia Ruize soon fell asleep. When Cheng Huaiqian came back from the shower, he was lying on the bed, feeling the breathing rate of the other person beside him. A strange sense of satisfaction surged up, and he fell into a happy mood, in dark sweet dreams.
At six o’clock in the morning, it was still dark outside. Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize had already woken up, and they had also woken up the twenty newcomers. The yawning newcomers were urged by the two captains to put all the fruits in their stocks in their mouths and go down the mountain together.
The newcomers were already familiar with the process of attracting monsters and killing them. The only difference was that the laser gun’s energy box had been used up and could only be returned to Xia Ruize.
Even though Cheng Huaiqian lit several fires on the mountain road to be responsible for lighting, the sky was still too dark and the temperature was very low. Not many prey were attracted.
The first time the newcomer and the wild animals fought each other, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian keenly discovered that the strength of today’s wild animals seemed to have improved compared to the previous day.
A few unprepared newcomers were even knocked over by the hare. At the same time that they were rescued in time, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian loudly reminded the newcomers to be vigilant, and the newcomers immediately became nervous and responded again and again.
Out of prudence, Xia Ruize asked Duann to release pheromones a few times. As the prey was attracted round after round, and after witnessing the performance of the newcomers, their guesses were completely confirmed. Under the influence of the reason, the strength of wild animals had increased.
The consistent performance was that wild animals became more powerful, faster, and more defensive. The prey that could be solved by two newcomers working together the day before needed three to four people to cooperate with each other to solve it without injury today.
Cheng Huaiqian had to go to the front line to take care of the newcomers in person, which was convenient for guidance and timely rescue in case of danger.
The newcomers struggled a bit against the wild animals whose strengths changed. Fortunately, the two captains gave them confidence. After the panic, they quickly adapted to the new situation.
Under the command of Cheng Huaiqian, twenty new recruits were divided into five groups, and groups of four cooperated with each other to attack and defend, and they took turn to pick up the treasure chests that dropped.
After fighting for a long time, the only good news was that the probability of dropping treasure chests after the wild animals were killed today had increased.
According to the observations of Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian, the drop rate of newcomers’ treasure chests the day before was about one fifth to one tenth.
The two of them were powerful trialers, the treasure chest drop rate had been reduced, Xia Ruize was only one-eighth, and Cheng Huaiqian had been suppressed to about one-fifteenth.
But today, after killing a stronger prey, the drop rate of the newcomers had increased to one-fourth to one-eighth, Xia Ruize was also one-sixth, and of course, Cheng Huaiqian had also risen to one-twelfth.
The drop rate had increased, but the harvest of the newcomers had not greatly improved, because killing the prey required more energy. After eliminating the three rounds of attracted prey, some newcomers were exhausted.
“Cheng team, it’s really impossible, I can’t even lift the knife…”
After cooperating with the members of the same group to kill the last bison, all the newcomers in a group immediately collapsed to the ground, carefully rushed to Cheng Huaiqian and begged for mercy.
Cheng Huaiqian, who was standing beside him and commanded them to fight, had a solemn expression and frowned upon hearing this, but did not reprimand him, because he could see that these newcomers were not slacking off, they were really exhausted.
The new people who fell to the ground felt that the current situation seemed a little bad. The ease of the first day made them less vigilant, and who knew that the difficulty of the task on the second day would increase.
After another round of defense, the two groups that persisted in fighting for another round could no longer hold on, and they all collapsed. Someone urgently reminded:
“Cheng team! Did you tell Xia team to let him attract less prey?”
Although Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian didn’t make it clear, they didn’t hide their special tricks for attracting monsters. It seemed that this skill was an artifact of distraction, but now it seemed that this is a double-edged sword.
After all the newcomers in melee combat fell, someone finally remembered that Xia Ruize was standing alone on a rock higher than them. They wonder if the number of monsters was reduced in time.
Soon, without Cheng Huaiqian answering, the newcomers would know the answer. As far as they could see, they saw the faint silhouettes of a large number of wild animals. Compared with the previous rounds, the number of wild animals had not only not decreased, but had increased!
“Cheng, Cheng team…”
Several newcomers exclaimed at the same time, wanting to remind Cheng Huaiqian to run up the mountain quickly, but seeing Cheng Huaiqian glaring at them impatiently, the newcomers were frightened to shut up, and then they saw Cheng Huaiqian walking forward alone.
The weapon in Cheng Huaiqian’s hand was a long knife, but with the super-high physical attribute value and the strengthening of his bloodline, his body was actually the most powerful weapon.
In the stunned look of the newcomers, Cheng Huaiqian charged directly into the wild animals with a long knife in hand.
At the same time, a sharp arrow was shot into the wild animals, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian cooperated tacitly and wiped out all the prey in this round in a very short time.
This time, the number of wild animals attracted was obviously more, but with the cooperation of Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian, it took less time to solve all the problems.
The newcomers stared blankly, only to feel that they were deeply shocked and hit.
They had already thought that they had worked hard enough, thinking that the gap between the two captains was a powerful weapon, but now they realized that they had never seen the two captains go all out before!
Alright, seeing it now, it made them give up completely. With such inhuman strength, it was impossible to catch up with one or two days of hard work!
Next, more wild animals were attracted round after round. Cheng Huaiqian stood alone in front to ensure that no prey could cross the defensive line he drew, and let Xia Ruize in the back just let his arrows at ease, without the need to be concerned about the danger of being approached by wild animals.
The newcomers who were paralyzed on the hillside were surprised at the beginning and then became accustomed to it. They gradually realized the fact that they were still far from the two captains.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian had their attack rhythms, killing a lot of prey and harvesting a lot of treasure chests.
Newcomers also had the rhythm of newcomers. After a period of rest, they could go to the front again, fight for two rounds under the command of Cheng Huaiqian, and then hide in the back to rest until they felt they could go up again.
The dark sky lasted until nine o’clock in the morning, and then in a short period of time, the sky was bright and the temperature rose rapidly.
When the new people continued to rotate until noon, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian finally stopped attacking temporarily, because they found that there were not many wild animals nearby, and the waiting time for each round was getting longer and longer.
“Keep moving forward, I’m really curious about what’s ahead.”
Cheng Huaiqian pointed to their original target direction. The fewer wild animals that were attracted, the more they could perceive them. The target direction was relatively more prey.
Xia Ruize put a few fruits in his mouth, glanced at the cave halfway up the mountain, thought for a while, and nodded: “Go. If we keep walking, we should be able to find more prey.”
The 20 newcomers who followed the two of them closely were already accustomed to orders and prohibitions. The captain said that they would leave, and the other nine newcomers who had been paralyzed in the cave for the morning did not dare to say anything more.
The night before, the cold temperature made it difficult for them to fall asleep. They tossed and turned, and had a clearer understanding of reality, realizing that what they experienced was really not a dream, but a reality that they needed to face rationally.
After being completely beaten, these newcomers fell silent, and they dared to jump around. They just asked Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian to continue to protect them and live for three days.
Therefore, Xia Ruize’s order to move on was carried out without any objection.
After the group slowly climbed down the mountain, twenty experienced newcomers scattered at the front of the team to open the way. Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian continued to walk in the middle, and the other nine newcomers followed slowly. Unlike the previous afternoon when they were walking, this was it was the nine newcomers who consciously dispersed away from the main force.
They knew very well that at this moment, probably only as a bait could they reflect a little of their value.
Even Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian did not expect that these nine newcomers, who were tired, hungry and thirsty, and moved forward with only one breath, were inexplicably easy to attract wild animals, and they would attract a wave in almost ten minutes.
Because the nine of them were far apart from each other, the final situation was that there were wild animals besieging them almost all the time.
Xia Ruize had to hand over the reins of the war horse to his teammate, while he himself sat down on the horse’s back, constantly pulling bows and shooting arrows to kill the attracted prey.
When more prey were attracted, there would be some small animals that were less harmful, and some newcomers seized the opportunity to kill the prey in a desperate way.
A young girl with short pink hair suddenly appeared in this world. She was a pampered eldest lady, let alone killing wild animals with her own hands. She had never seen how the chicken, duck, and fish that she ate before came to the table.
But the pressure of survival forced her to be strong, and on the cold nights where she couldn’t sleep, she found a sharp-edged stone in the cave. When the large army moved, she walked at the back of the group, using herself as a bait to attract prey.
When the wild wolves were attracted by her, she just hid cowardly, and when the wild bulls were attracted, she hid cowardly. Finally, when a group of hares were attracted, she gave up and jumped out desperately. She held down a hare and held on to it tightly. Even though she was bitten by the hare, she still did not let go and smashed the hare to death with a stone.
Fortunately, the little girl’s first kill dropped the treasure chest, which contained a white fruit.
After getting the white fruit, the little girl licked her tongue excitedly, endured and endured, and finally she took the white fruit to Xia Ruize, holding the fruit in her hand and holding it to Xia Ruize who was sitting on the horse, the little girl asked in a low voice. road:
“Xia team, I know I’m a little late, but I finally have a kill record. Can I follow you?”
Xia Ruize looked at her withered and cracked lips, her eyes full of desire to survive, without embarrassing her, he nodded and promised:
“Okay. You beat it yourself, you eat it yourself, you go to the man in black to borrow his knife, practice with him first, and work hard.”
The little girl’s originally dull eyes instantly burst into a brilliance of surprise, and it seemed that she wanted to rush forward and hug Xia Ruize to express her gratitude. Of course, a long knife with a cold light blocked her from rushing towards Xia Ruize’s leg.
Looking up along the long knife, the little girl saw Cheng Huaiqian with a cold face, only to see Cheng Huaiqian picking up the long knife and pointing to the newcomer in black in front of him, and ordered:
“What to do, don’t waste time.”
The little girl seemed to be rejuvenated because of Xia Ruize’s promise, and her cheerful and lively personality appeared again. She was not afraid of Cheng Huaiqian’s cold face.
“I know, Cheng team, but I have a beloved fiancé. I won’t rob you of the Xia team. You really don’t need to be jealous of me.”
After saying this with a smile, the little girl quickly turned her head and ran away, and followed Xia Ruize’s instructions to find other newcomers to borrow knives.
For the first time, Cheng Huaiqian knew that what other people said was so lethal. He almost let go of long knife in his hand. Fortunately, he clenched the long knife in time, but Cheng Huaiqian was even more depressed that he didn’t know what to say.
In the past, if someone dared to make a joke of this nature with him, he could reach out and hit directly, letting the other party know what it meant to ” Misfortune comes out of the mouth”1
But this time, he felt unable to refute, and he even had an urge to agree, yes, just jealous, you little goblins stay away from his friend!
Looking at his heart, Cheng Huaiqian clearly realized that he really felt that the actions of these little girls throwing at Xia Ruize were annoying and irritating.
But is this the kind of feeling that friends should have?
It was not like Cheng Huaiqian had no friends. If those friends appeared in front of him with boyfriends/girlfriends, he would only wish them a hundred years of happiness.
But now, as long as he thought that Xia Ruize would appear in front of him with his boyfriend/girlfriend one day… Cheng Huaiqian clenched the knife in his hand, he felt that he could not control the urge to kill!
Xia Ruize on the other side was also stunned for a moment because of what the little girl said. A few blushes crept up on his cheeks, and the war horse who had the same mind slowed down, so Xia Ruize, who was sitting upside down on the horse, was sitting next to Cheng Huaiqian, staggered.
Xia Ruize didn’t look at Cheng Huaiqian’s expression at all, and didn’t want the other party to see his expression. Fortunately, a few cheetahs took aim at the newcomers behind the team. Xia Ruize hurriedly drew the bow and shot arrows, forcibly focusing on attacking the prey.
It was only during the interval of the attack that Xia Ruize couldn’t help thinking that they were now tied to the Endless World, their lives were involuntary, and they had to do their best to live. Where would they have the energy to think about other things?
Thinking of this, the beating heart slowly fell silent, and Xia Ruize returned to his expressionless face.
Cheng Huaiqian, who had been entangled for a while, finally couldn’t help turning his head to look at his teammate, only to see Xia Ruize’s full bowstring gently pressing down a depression in his cheek, staring sharply at the prey in the distance, as if he didn’t care about the little girl’s previous words.
Realizing that he was the only one affected, Cheng Huaiqian was deeply depressed. He really wanted to meet a large group of wild animals now, and he wanted to rush in and kill them to vent.
But the dullness in his heart could no longer stop Cheng Huaiqian from continuing to think deeply. He remembered the novice world when he first met with Xia Ruize. At that time, he would have been inexplicably angry because the girl was approaching Xia Ruize, but at that time he himself did not realize what he was angry about.
When he returned to the real world between the mission worlds, he struggled to find his partner. The reason he gave himself before was that it was rare to meet a teammate who matched in the real world. Meeting in the real world would be conducive to cooperation. The trialer had no idea of intersecting in the real world at all, and the only one he remembered was Xia Ruize.
Cheng Huaiqian hadn’t told Xia Ruize yet. When he saw Xia Ruize walking out of the overturned carriage, he recognized Xia Ruize with just a side face, and his memory came back in an instant, and he was so happy that he even forgot his mission. He just wanted to fly over to make sure his teammate remembered him.
The more Cheng Huaiqian reflected, the clearer he became. Before he realized it clearly, his subconscious actions had actually exposed his heart, thinking that he would be single forever and never fall in love with anyone, he fell in love with Xia Ruize!
Cheng Huaiqian only felt that his heart began to beat violently, his blood was surging, and he was eager to get more responses.
But when Cheng Huaiqian looked at Xia Ruize, he only saw the serious expressions of his teammate, and Cheng Huaiqian suddenly flinched.
What if he liked Xia Ruize but his teammate only treated him as an ordinary friend? Would he scare his teammate if he acted too weird?
And now he recalled that he always liked to hug Xia Ruize before, and dragged people to rest together. In the eyes of his teammate, he was just an ordinary friend. If he knew that he was actually thinking about other things, would he think that he was a pervert?
Cheng Huaiqian, who had never known what inferiority complex is in his life, flinched for the first time. He cherished it too much and was too afraid of losing it, so that he couldn’t say anything. He was afraid that even the harmonious teammate relationship between him and Xia Ruize would collapse.
Cheng Huaiqian was so anxious that he fidgeted on the horse like ADHD. The fanatical emotions in his heart made him want to do something crazy, but the rational beast that restrained his emotions made him appear manic and restless.
“What happened to you?”
After one round of attacks, Xia Ruize immediately felt the abnormality of his teammate beside him, reached out and dragged Cheng Huaiqian, and then saw the teammate who turned their heads sweating profusely.
“Are you too hot? Would you like to take a break?”
Xia Ruize asked suspiciously.
“No, nothing, nothing, I just got sunburned, I don’t need to rest.”
Cheng Huaiqian just took a quick look at Xia Ruize and immediately turned his head straight, and stopped looking at his teammate.
As soon as he realized his feelings, he found that his feelings were about to break through the cage like a beast, and he wanted to rush out desperately, but he didn’t want to scare his teammate who didn’t know anything.
Cheng Huaiqian’s voice was a little hoarse. Xia Ruize subconsciously realized that his state was not right, and immediately drove the horse to walk a few steps to the front of Cheng Huaiqian, face to face with his teammate, carefully observed and asked eagerly:
“Cheng Huaiqian, what’s wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?”
This was the first time Xia Ruize called Cheng Huaiqian’s name directly. Most of the time before, the two of them talked face to face. In an environment with only the two of them, there was no need to call each other by name at all, just talk directly.
So, suddenly hearing his name spilling out of Xia Ruize’s mouth, Cheng Huaiqian only felt his heart skip a beat, and the cage of the beast was finally broken.
But at this moment, screams were heard in the distance, Xia Ruize turned his head suddenly, and saw a vulture swooping down very close to a newcomer who volunteered to be the bait.
Xia Ruize’s wrist turned, his hand had been replaced with a laser gun, and the vulture fell in response. Then the laser gun was exchanged for the sunbow, and the bow was fully drawn, and five sharp arrows flew out at the rest of the vultures.
Xia Ruize, who was in the tense battle, didn’t see it. Behind him, Cheng Huaiqian looked at his back enthusiastically. There seemed to be flames burning in his dark eyes. The flames would not only burn Cheng Huaiqian, but also burn Xia Ruize together.
After finishing a wave of prey, Xia Ruize immediately turned his head to observe the state of his teammate, but went straight into Cheng Huaiqian’s eyes. Xia Ruize was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked, “What happened to you just now? Are you really okay?”
“It’s really okay.”
The corners of Cheng Huaiqian’s mouth turned up to reveal a smile, but there was a hint of evil in this smile, he stared straight at Xia Ruize, and replied softly, “It’s just too hot, just add some water, I don’t have white fruit here, feed me two.”
Xia Ruize intuitively felt that something was wrong with his teammate. He didn’t have time to investigate. He immediately turned over to take out two white fruits and wanted to put them in his teammate’s hands, but he saw Cheng Huaiqian raise the reins of one hand and one hand, indicating that he couldn’t catch them.
Xia Ruize simply picked up a white fruit and fed it directly into Cheng Huaiqian’s mouth.
Xia Ruize’s fingers touched his teammate’s hot lips and immediately retracted, but seeing Cheng Huaiqian eating white fruit in his mouth, his eyes stared straight at Xia Ruize, and he said in a hoarse voice:
“It was delicious, delicious.”1 Speaking carelessly can lead to trouble

“I know, Cheng team, but I have a beloved fiancé. I won’t rob you of the Xia team. You really don’t need to be jealous of me.”
After saying this with a smile, the little girl quickly turned her head and ran away, and followed Xia Ruize’s instructions to find other newcomers to borrow knives.
For the first time, Cheng Huaiqian knew that what other people said was so lethal. He almost let go of long knife in his hand. Fortunately, he clenched the long knife in time, but Cheng Huaiqian was even more depressed that he didn’t know what to say.
In the past, if someone dared to make a joke of this nature with him, he could reach out and hit directly, letting the other party know what it meant to ” Misfortune comes out of the mouth”1
But this time, he felt unable to refute, and he even had an urge to agree, yes, just jealous, you little goblins stay away from his friend!
Looking at his heart, Cheng Huaiqian clearly realized that he really felt that the actions of these little girls throwing at Xia Ruize were annoying and irritating.
But is this the kind of feeling that friends should have?
It was not like Cheng Huaiqian had no friends. If those friends appeared in front of him with boyfriends/girlfriends, he would only wish them a hundred years of happiness.
But now, as long as he thought that Xia Ruize would appear in front of him with his boyfriend/girlfriend one day… Cheng Huaiqian clenched the knife in his hand, he felt that he could not control the urge to kill!
Xia Ruize on the other side was also stunned for a moment because of what the little girl said. A few blushes crept up on his cheeks, and the war horse who had the same mind slowed down, so Xia Ruize, who was sitting upside down on the horse, was sitting next to Cheng Huaiqian, staggered.
Xia Ruize didn’t look at Cheng Huaiqian’s expression at all, and didn’t want the other party to see his expression. Fortunately, a few cheetahs took aim at the newcomers behind the team. Xia Ruize hurriedly drew the bow and shot arrows, forcibly focusing on attacking the prey.
It was only during the interval of the attack that Xia Ruize couldn’t help thinking that they were now tied to the Endless World, their lives were involuntary, and they had to do their best to live. Where would they have the energy to think about other things?
Thinking of this, the beating heart slowly fell silent, and Xia Ruize returned to his expressionless face.
Cheng Huaiqian, who had been entangled for a while, finally couldn’t help turning his head to look at his teammate, only to see Xia Ruize’s full bowstring gently pressing down a depression in his cheek, staring sharply at the prey in the distance, as if he didn’t care about the little girl’s previous words.
Realizing that he was the only one affected, Cheng Huaiqian was deeply depressed. He really wanted to meet a large group of wild animals now, and he wanted to rush in and kill them to vent.
But the dullness in his heart could no longer stop Cheng Huaiqian from continuing to think deeply. He remembered the novice world when he first met with Xia Ruize. At that time, he would have been inexplicably angry because the girl was approaching Xia Ruize, but at that time he himself did not realize what he was angry about.
When he returned to the real world between the mission worlds, he struggled to find his partner. The reason he gave himself before was that it was rare to meet a teammate who matched in the real world. Meeting in the real world would be conducive to cooperation. The trialer had no idea of intersecting in the real world at all, and the only one he remembered was Xia Ruize.
Cheng Huaiqian hadn’t told Xia Ruize yet. When he saw Xia Ruize walking out of the overturned carriage, he recognized Xia Ruize with just a side face, and his memory came back in an instant, and he was so happy that he even forgot his mission. He just wanted to fly over to make sure his teammate remembered him.
The more Cheng Huaiqian reflected, the clearer he became. Before he realized it clearly, his subconscious actions had actually exposed his heart, thinking that he would be single forever and never fall in love with anyone, he fell in love with Xia Ruize!
Cheng Huaiqian only felt that his heart began to beat violently, his blood was surging, and he was eager to get more responses.
But when Cheng Huaiqian looked at Xia Ruize, he only saw the serious expressions of his teammate, and Cheng Huaiqian suddenly flinched.
What if he liked Xia Ruize but his teammate only treated him as an ordinary friend? Would he scare his teammate if he acted too weird?
And now he recalled that he always liked to hug Xia Ruize before, and dragged people to rest together. In the eyes of his teammate, he was just an ordinary friend. If he knew that he was actually thinking about other things, would he think that he was a pervert?
Cheng Huaiqian, who had never known what inferiority complex is in his life, flinched for the first time. He cherished it too much and was too afraid of losing it, so that he couldn’t say anything. He was afraid that even the harmonious teammate relationship between him and Xia Ruize would collapse.
Cheng Huaiqian was so anxious that he fidgeted on the horse like ADHD. The fanatical emotions in his heart made him want to do something crazy, but the rational beast that restrained his emotions made him appear manic and restless.
“What happened to you?”
After one round of attacks, Xia Ruize immediately felt the abnormality of his teammate beside him, reached out and dragged Cheng Huaiqian, and then saw the teammate who turned their heads sweating profusely.
“Are you too hot? Would you like to take a break?”
Xia Ruize asked suspiciously.
“No, nothing, nothing, I just got sunburned, I don’t need to rest.”
Cheng Huaiqian just took a quick look at Xia Ruize and immediately turned his head straight, and stopped looking at his teammate.
As soon as he realized his feelings, he found that his feelings were about to break through the cage like a beast, and he wanted to rush out desperately, but he didn’t want to scare his teammate who didn’t know anything.
Cheng Huaiqian’s voice was a little hoarse. Xia Ruize subconsciously realized that his state was not right, and immediately drove the horse to walk a few steps to the front of Cheng Huaiqian, face to face with his teammate, carefully observed and asked eagerly:
“Cheng Huaiqian, what’s wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?”
This was the first time Xia Ruize called Cheng Huaiqian’s name directly. Most of the time before, the two of them talked face to face. In an environment with only the two of them, there was no need to call each other by name at all, just talk directly.
So, suddenly hearing his name spilling out of Xia Ruize’s mouth, Cheng Huaiqian only felt his heart skip a beat, and the cage of the beast was finally broken.
But at this moment, screams were heard in the distance, Xia Ruize turned his head suddenly, and saw a vulture swooping down very close to a newcomer who volunteered to be the bait.
Xia Ruize’s wrist turned, his hand had been replaced with a laser gun, and the vulture fell in response. Then the laser gun was exchanged for the sunbow, and the bow was fully drawn, and five sharp arrows flew out at the rest of the vultures.
Xia Ruize, who was in the tense battle, didn’t see it. Behind him, Cheng Huaiqian looked at his back enthusiastically. There seemed to be flames burning in his dark eyes. The flames would not only burn Cheng Huaiqian, but also burn Xia Ruize together.
After finishing a wave of prey, Xia Ruize immediately turned his head to observe the state of his teammate, but went straight into Cheng Huaiqian’s eyes. Xia Ruize was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked, “What happened to you just now? Are you really okay?”
“It’s really okay.”
The corners of Cheng Huaiqian’s mouth turned up to reveal a smile, but there was a hint of evil in this smile, he stared straight at Xia Ruize, and replied softly, “It’s just too hot, just add some water, I don’t have white fruit here, feed me two.”
Xia Ruize intuitively felt that something was wrong with his teammate. He didn’t have time to investigate. He immediately turned over to take out two white fruits and wanted to put them in his teammate’s hands, but he saw Cheng Huaiqian raise the reins of one hand and one hand, indicating that he couldn’t catch them.
Xia Ruize simply picked up a white fruit and fed it directly into Cheng Huaiqian’s mouth.
Xia Ruize’s fingers touched his teammate’s hot lips and immediately retracted, but seeing Cheng Huaiqian eating white fruit in his mouth, his eyes stared straight at Xia Ruize, and he said in a hoarse voice:
“It was delicious, delicious.”1 Speaking carelessly can lead to trouble
