Beauty and the Beasts - Chapter 385

Chapter 385: Peacock Who Smells of Fart

Parker was infuriated. His hind legs dug at the ground as he prepared to enter forcibly.

Alva let out another cry. Under his order, the peacocks all pounced toward the leopard. Four of them were three-striped beastmen.

The strongest peacocks in the village, except the old village head, had all come.

Parker was unable to win against their numbers. After running two steps forward, he was pecked so much that he was aching all over, unable to advance another step. He wasn’t sure of the enemy forces and had no choice but to turn and flee.

After running for a distance, he turned back and took a look. The peacocks didn’t chase after him.

Parker gritted his teeth. He was definitely going to sneak in!

Oh right, he had caught a faint scent of Curtis on the way here. He should go and look for him.

…

Ever since the first fetal movement, Bai Qingqing’s stomach seemed to stop growing bigger. However, there’d be a few fetal movements every day, and the movements were increasingly forceful, with higher frequencies.

Such vibrant vitality caused Bai Qingqing’s mood to turn for the better. It was just that they would go a little overboard, causing her to feel a little unbearable.

As Bai Qingqing ate the freshly roasted meat under the shade of the tree, she seemed to sense something. She suddenly thought of Parker and pressed her hand to her chest.

Muir said quickly, “The prey today is a little skinny. I’ll definitely catch a fatter one for you in the afternoon.”

“If you don’t come across one, then it’s fine. There’s no need to fly too far for a meal.” Bai Qingqing smiled. She couldn’t bear to let Muir spend so much time go around looking for food for her every day to cater to her preferences.

“It’s fine. I have a lot of energy.”

The light breeze blew by the river, bringing the scent of plants and water. Unknowingly, there was an additional hint of a strange smell.

Bai Qingqing’s nose twitched and she looked around. She noticed Alva standing at the side, seemingly hesitant, as if he wanted to come over but didn’t dare to get close.

It had been very long since she had seen him. Bai Qingqing thought that he had already given up on the idea of wooing her and thus smiled at him politely.

Alva was greatly encouraged by her smile. He held onto the animal skin and walked over in huge strides.

“Qingqing, I have something to give you.”

Muir threw a glance at the pile of clothes and tightened his grip on the firewood he was holding. However, he didn’t beat Alva up like he did before.

“This is the blue-tailed fox’s fur. See if you like it.” Alva came to a stop two to three meters away from Bai Qingqing, spreading out a piece of blue short-haired animal skin. There was even a stack of bright snakeskin under it.

Bai Qingqing felt that the smell had gotten even more intense and looked strangely at Alva’s body. When she saw the snakeskin, she immediately snatched it over.

“Curtis’s… my clothes!” Bai Qingqing hid the tube top behind her back and looked up at Alva, smiling and said, “Did you get it back from Bella? Thank you.”

Regardless of how it came back, she wasn’t going to hand over the clothes anymore. With Muir around, these peacocks wouldn’t dare to be too forceful toward her.

Alva nodded happily. “I used a piece of blue-tailed fox hide to exchange it. There’s also a blue-tailed fox’s hide here. Take a look. Do you like it?”

“This…” Bai Qingqing shook her head without taking a close look at it, sounding firm. “There shouldn’t be a reward without any deserving achievement. I can’t accept it.”

Muir felt a little relieved and tore off another piece of cooked meat, handing it to her. “Quickly eat.”

“Mm.”

Alva then said, “I don’t know anything about achievements. Even though you don’t accept me, there’s no need for you to reject my gift. This is something a beautiful female deserves.”

“Uhh…” Bai Qingqing was speechless.

“Did you get something on you? Why is there a strange smell coming from your body?” She was quick-witted and changed the topic.

Alva let out a cry, picked up the clothing, and stood up, backing off a few steps.
