After merely resting for a night, Muir’s injury basically didn’t affect his movements now.

Early in the morning, he ran off and captured a plump and sturdy squirrel, before roasting it by the river near a large tree.

Smelling the fragrance, Bai Qingqing snapped out of her dreams back to reality. Wrinkling her nose, she opened her eyes.

“Who’s roasting meat?”

Bai Qingqing crawled outside. It was a very familiar fragrance. Garlic-flavored. Muir!

Ah, she nearly forgot that Muir had moved into the peacock village.

Muir kept an eye on Bai Qingqing’s direction constantly. The instant she came out, he noticed her. He got up and transformed into an eagle, before flying towards her.

Bai Qingqing smoothed her tangled hair, having not combed it for some time. Muir stopped next to her and indicated for her to climb onto him.

She gazed at the ground below and felt a little sheepish as she carefully went over the railings and turned her body to sit on the back of the eagle.

Muir flew steadily, and without much shock or surprise, brought Bai Qingqing to the river.

They had just landed on the ground when Bai Qingqing let out a gasp. Covering her face with her hands, she gazed around at her surroundings.

“I forgot to smudge my face.”

Muir squatted beside the fire and flipped over the roasted meat. There were purple balls laid over a tree leaf next to him.

“I plucked the purple balls. Quick, go and wash your face. I’ll help you apply it later.”

It was only out of habit that Bai Qingqing wished to conceal her true appearance. Now, she didn’t really care anymore. She said, “Actually, it’s okay. I can’t be bothered with them anymore.”

Alva, holding a pine cone full of pine nuts, froze in his steps.

Can’t be bothered with them.
