Bai Qingqing started feeling frantic about her toes again. She hurriedly said to Parker, “Water got into my boots earlier, they feel really cold.”

Parker got anxious and let out a roar, then lowered his head and started licking her feet maniacally.

Winston’s countenance changed greatly as well. “I’ll go boil some water.”

Bai Qingqing was shocked by their exaggerated reactions. Seemed like what Curtis said was true.

But she shook her head and rejected the suggestion. She arched her itchy feet and said, “The frostbite makes one vulnerable to getting scalded. It’s not safe to bathe with hot water. The cubs’ bodies are very warm, I’m much better already.”

It indeed felt warmer after Parker licked it, but it also felt ticklish and prickly. Bai Qingqing had a difficult time enduring it, and her body had also begun heating up. Finally, she retracted her legs.

“Alright, just help me warm them up against your chest,” said Bai Qingqing as she hugged her legs.

Parker crawled over and pressed her half-reddened, slim and petite feet against his chest.

His body temperature was even higher than a cub’s and was able to cover Bai Qingqing’s bare exposed skin. She felt so relaxed that she leaned against the wooden wall.

“Winston, how did you manage to find your way here?”

Winston’s expression darkened as he sat down in the center of the house. “You were seen by the scorpion tribe.”

“How did you know that?” asked Bai Qingqing in shock. “Wait a minute. Didn’t all those who saw me die?”

Something suddenly occurred to her, making her straighten her back. “Don’t tell me some of them escaped. How did you find out about this?”

Curtis knitted his red brows in remorse as he recalled the fighting scene yesterday.

He was certain that those scorpion beastmen had all died, which meant some of them definitely remained in hiding in the sand and didn’t show themselves. He regretted not searching the place carefully.

Winston said, “I infiltrated Flame City in order to find you.”

“Flame City?”

“The city is occupied by rootless beasts—males who have been abandoned by their spouses. That place is inside the desert.”
