With a sweep of his tail, the beastmen quickly cleared a path for Cortis.

When they got home, Bai Qingqing’s mind was still filled with those gory scenes. Her face looked pretty pale.

With his arms around Bai Qingqing, Parker rubbed his face against her. “Shall I cook something for you to eat?”

Bai Qingqing rolled her eyes at him. “You think I’m a pig? I’ve just eaten. With rice, I can just eat two meals a day. There’s no need to cook at noon again.”

Rice again. Parker felt jealous. Now that there was rice, Bai Qingqing’s appetite had doubled.

“I’ll go and chop firewood,” Parker said. He picked up his ax from the ground. Seeing that Cortis had no intention to go with him, he said in a displeased tone, “Hey, Snake, come with me.”

Don’t dream of staying alone with Qingqing.

Cortis glanced coldly at Parker, the message clear from his eyes. Asking for a beating?

Parker’s heart quivered a little.

Bai Qingqing quickly tried to ease the situation. “I’m thinking of arranging the firewood we have here. Give me a hand, Cortis.”

Parker had no choice but to consent. Holding the ax in hand, he left by himself.

The twigs and branches took up a lot of space. Bai Qingqing thus thought of an idea—to extract the oil.

Not only would it occupy much less space, but it would also be a breeze to cook with. There were plenty of bamboos around the house, and they were most ideal for containing the oil.

“Cortis, help me carry the firewood down,” Bai Qingqing said with her eyes upon the pile of tree branches.

“Okay.” Cortis curled his tail and rolled down a bundle of tree branches.

Bai Qingqing bent down and tried to untie the vines binding the tree branches. But she lost patience after failing some attempts to do so and decided to simply snap the vines by brute force. Suddenly, she felt something tighten around her ankle, and she could feel her body filled with strength.
