Xue Ling stared at her red and moist lips for a long time. In the end, he couldn’t help but lower his head and suck on her mouth.
It tasted even sweeter and more delicious than he had imagined!
Xue Ling immediately became addicted.
Huanhuan struggled with all her might. Xue Ling grabbed her hands and pulled them above her head.
He licked the corner of her mouth, his blood-red eyes shining. “Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to you. I just want to kiss you.”
“Let go of me!” Huanhuan was so angry that her eyes were red.
Xue Ling looked at her weak struggle and found her even more delicious.
His mouth went dry. He wished he could devour the little female.
Huanhuan was so frightened by him that she cried.
Tears fell down her face like beads from a broken string.
Xue Ling immediately stopped.
He stared blankly at her as tears streamed down her face. For no reason, he panicked. “Don’t cry! I really don’t plan to do anything to you. I just want to be close to you.”

Huanhuan ignored him. She was still crying.
Xue Ling quickly let go of her and wiped her tears with his sleeve. “Alright, I was wrong. I apologize. Stop crying.”
He had never spoken to anyone in such a low voice in his life.
If Shen Yan were present, he would definitely be shocked speechless by his gentle attitude.
How could this careful male beast in front of him still be the wilful Lord Xue Ling?!
Huanhuan dodged Xue Ling’s hand. “Go. Don’t come again.”
Xue Ling looked at her tear-stained cheeks and couldn’t help but say what was on his mind.
“I really like you.”

She slowly froze at his sudden confession. Her red eyes widened as she looked at him in surprise. “You’re joking, right?”
He usually provoked her, and she never felt that he really liked her.
He only treated her as an interesting pet and teased her for no reason.
Xue Ling looked at her steadily.
Huanhuan’s scalp went numb from his gaze, and her heart became more and more confused. She asked hesitantly, “Are you serious?”
If he was serious, she had to reject him immediately and completely cut off any ideas he had toward her.
Three male beast mates were enough for her. With her small body, she could not afford a fourth mate.
Moreover, Xue Ling’s intention to kill Sang Ye had always been a knot in her heart. She could not accept him without any grudges.
Xue Ling suddenly chuckled. “I was joking. Don’t tell me you took it seriously?”
Huanhuan immediately heaved a long sigh of relief. “I knew it. How could you really like me?”
Xue Ling lifted a strand of her long hair and smiled meaningfully. “Don’t worry, I already have someone I like. I won’t really do anything to you.”

Huanhuan blinked. “Can I know who that is?”
Xue Ling smiled suggestively. “I can’t tell you yet. If you’re willing to sleep with me, I’ll consider telling you.”

“Then forget it. Keep your secret. Don’t ever tell me.”
She pushed Xue Ling away. “Since you already have a female you like, don’t provoke me in the future. Otherwise, that female will misunderstand that you and I are having an affair.”
“Can I assume you’re jealous?’
“I’m thinking of you. What if that female misunderstands you and isn’t willing to mate with you in the future? You’d better respect yourself.”
However, Xue Ling said, “She won’t take a fancy to me. It doesn’t matter if there’s a misunderstanding.”
“Huh? She doesn’t even like you? Then her standards are quite high!”
Xue Ling looked at her meaningfully and smiled. “She does have high standards.”
Huanhuan’s eyes became filled with sympathy. She patted his shoulder. “All the best. Although you’re a little old, fortunately, you’ve maintained your appearance well. From now on, keep exercising every day and take care of your health. You should still be able to win over your sweetheart.”
Xue Ling: “…”

Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, three months had passed.
The beasts relied on the rock mountain to build a tall and mighty fortress. It was quite a spectacular sight from afar.
There were a total of 20 floors. There were 17 floors above ground and three floors below ground.
The mutated potatoes, bamboos, and creeper vines had also grown.
The potatoes were especially big and round. If anyone touched them, they would immediately smash toward them like missiles!
If one was hit, it would hurt for several days even if one’s bones were not broken.
The bamboos were tall, thin, and green. They looked quite normal, but as soon as someone approached them, they would make a dolphin sound. It was a terrifying dolphin sound that could shatter one’s eardrums.
The creeper vines were no better. The vines would sweep people up and hang them in midair. If those who were caught weren’t obedient and struggled desperately, they would be mercilessly beaten by the creeper vines.
It took a lot of effort for the beasts to pick the potatoes.

Potatoes were a good thing. Not only could they last for a long time, but they could be cooked in different ways. For example, fried, roasted, boiled, stewed, sliced, mashed, and shredded…
In any case, they cooked it a hundred different ways every day.
Huanhuan tasted the mutated potatoes and felt that they were not bad, so she waved her hand and got 300 more seeds. She began to plant potatoes on a large scale at the foot of the mountain.
She also got some creeper vines seeds and bamboo shoots.
The bamboo shoots were planted beside the fruit forest. These bamboos grew slower, but they were delicious! Moreover, bamboos were very useful!
The creeper seeds were planted at the foot of the mountain. They grew quickly, and in just a few days, they had grown seven or eight meters along the fortress wall.
Dark green vines clung to the outside of the walls. Large green leaves layered over each other, covering the doors and windows of the fortress. They cleverly covered the shockingly huge building under the vines.
Anyone who didn’t know better would think that this was a rock mountain filled with creepers. They wouldn’t expect a huge fortress to be hidden inside.

Huanhuan felt that this was good.
This fortress was not at the level that this world could build at the moment. It would not be good for them to catch too much attention. It was better for them to keep a low profile so that others would not cause trouble for them again.
The top two floors of the fort were assigned to the birds.
The third underground floor was used as a warehouse.
The remaining 15 floors were divided into living areas, business areas, entertainment areas, and learning areas.
At the same time, System 438 suddenly released a notification.
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering the mission called—King of Growth Tribe!
“Host, please work hard to increase the strength of the tribe, the number of people, and expand the territory of the tribe. When the overall score of the tribe reaches C-rank, the host will receive a large number of mission rewards!”
