The two orc teams were already quite familiar with each other, and Ji Nuan wasn’t shy about taking advantage of the situation. Although she had great confidence in her own dicinal powder, having orcs on night watch always made her feel a bit more at ease.
"Alright, if anything happens, just call us."
Harry nodded, watching as Ji Nuan pulled down the tent flap.
He added a few more logs to the fire and began recalling the herbal knowledge he had learned before in the Shahe Tribe.
Ji Nuan was woken up by Xiu Yan. The orcs had already prepared food, and Harry and the others used the portions they were given to boil so steaming hot at soup, which they were enjoying wholeheartedly.
Ji Nuan, on the other hand, ca out with dark circles under her eyes. She had spent the previous night recording the events that happened during the journey on paper. She felt like she could fall asleep just standing there.
"Drink so potion. You never know when we might run into orcs from Saint Fei Oasis," Xiu Yan said, holding a delicate little porcelain bottle in his hand. It was a potion that Ji Nuan had previously made using the peel of the Beast God Fruit.
The potion was highly effective for restoring energy and maintaining a good state of mind.
Ji Nuan nodded and took the bottle, sowhat lifelessly. She took a small sip, and a wave of warmth spread through her body from her throat.
"Shaman, are you and Shaman Ji Nuan about the sa age?" Tuya asked while sipping from her bowl of at soup, her eyes glinting with a mischievous light.
Harry glanced at her and nodded. "I think I heard Shaman Ji Nuan ntion it last ti. I should be about half a year younger than her. Why do you ask?"
Tuya let out a cheeky laugh, her face showing a rather shaless expression. "Young female shamans as skilled as Shaman Ji Nuan are rare, no? Look at her—don’t you think you should give it a shot and try to beco her mate?"
Harry’s face froze, and he instantly felt a chill run up his spine and settle at the back of his head. He was utterly chilled.
Slowly turning his head, sure enough, the terrifying orc was staring deeply at him.
The innocent Harry definitely knew that those were not friendly eyes.
At this mont, a firm rejection was absolutely necessary—there could be no ambiguity.
He placed the bowl in his hand down beside him, straightened his posture, and looked at Tuya with utmost seriousness. "It’s impossible between and Shaman Ji Nuan. We’re both shamans, and shamans can never share mates with other orcs or females. Don’t say such things again in the future."
Startled by his solemn response, Tuya stamred out an acknowledgnt.
She then obediently lowered her head and began fervently eating her food.
As for Harry, he turned toward Xiu Yan and showed him a rather ’kind’ smile.
Only then did Xiu Yan turn back to continue chatting with the young female by his side.
Harry wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, still shaken. Truly, it had scared the beast out of him.
He turned and was just about to pick up his bowl again to continue his breakfast.
But his eyes t a deep, penetrating gaze—it was Casa...
So, had that cowardly display of his just now been fully observed by this orc?
Harry’s eyes flashed with a mix of sha and anger. He bared his little white teeth and flashed Casa a ’puppy-like threatening’ smile.
If you dare tell anyone, I’ll kill you~
But what Harry hadn’t expected was that the usually aloof orc actually responded with a faint, provocative smile.
As if to say: What can you do to ?
Harry almost exploded with rage on the spot. He was determined to find an opportunity to teach this arrogant orc a lesson. How dare he act so brazenly!
To challenge the mighty Shaman, Harry, was to invite punishnt. He’d make sure Casa understood why flowers bloom so red.
