Shuang Jing jumped into the lake helplessly. Unfortunately, the lake was not deep enough. Coupled with the fact that he could swim, he did not drown in the end. Instead, he took the opportunity to take a cold bath.
After taking a bath, Shuang Jing returned to the shore and transformed into a leopard.
The leopard's face was covered in fur. No one could see if he had acne.
He climbed the tree and kept sighing.
'My beautiful face is ruined! I won't be able to see anyone in the future. My heart aches for myself!'
Huanhuan squatted on the ground and placed some herbs into a stone bowl. After crushing them, she called out Shuang Jing's name.
The leopard jumped to the ground and walked to her with cat steps. "What?" he asked weakly.
"Put this on your face."
The leopard saw the stone bowl and sounded disgusted as he asked, "What is this green thing?"
"These herbs I specially concocted for you can help you recover quickly."
"That's amazing!"
The leopard immediately perked up. He transformed into his human form on the spot, took the stone bowl, and smeared the herb paste on his face.
He asked with a green face, "How long before I can take this off?"
"It won't take long. You can wash it off after we eat."
"Oh."
Hence, when everyone was eating dinner, Shuang Jing could only squat at the side and watch eagerly.
He still had the paste on his face. It was difficult for him to even drink water, let alone eat.
Shuang Lin and Shuang Hua, the two brothers, were very naughty. As they ate, they sighed. "This meat is so delicious! It's crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. When you take a bite, the tenderness is just… Tsk tsk, it's simply amazing!"
Gulp!
Shuang Hua asked, "Huh? What's that sound?"
Shuang Lin said, "It's Shuang Jing's stomach rumbling!"
The two brothers looked at Shuang Jing together and couldn't help but laugh when they saw his pitiful appearance as he kept swallowing.
Huanhuan thought that after this lesson, Shuang Jing would not want to eat sunflower seeds for the time being.
Unexpectedly, she underestimated his determination to court death.
Three days later, Shuang Jing's face was finally as good as new. He admired himself in the reflection on the water, feeling pleased.
It was great that he was not disfigured!
Shuang Jing ran over excitedly to ask Huanhuan for sunflower seeds.
Huanhuan was very surprised. "You still want to eat them? Aren't you afraid of getting pimples again?"
Shuang Jing touched his smooth cheeks and smiled. "I'm not afraid. Even if I get pimples again, your herbs can treat them."
Huanhuan chuckled. "You've really forgotten the pain you just endured."
Since he insisted on courting death, she naturally chose to fulfill his wish.
Huanhuan filled a large bag with sunflower seeds for Shuang Jing.
Hence, along the way, in addition to the shouts of Quan Rong pursuing Shuang Yin from time to time, there was also the sound of sunflower seeds being cracked. Well, it was Shuang Jing cracking the sunflower seeds open.
He left a trail of hulls on the ground as he ate.
At this moment, in the Blazing Flame Tribe, the beasts who ambushed Huanhuan and the others had already returned to the Blazing Flame Tribe to report the news of Young Master Quan Rong being killed to the tribe leader.
When Cang Yi learned that his most precious brother had been killed, he was so angry that his vision blurred and he almost fainted.
His trusted aide quickly supported him. "Patriarch, we haven't taken revenge for Young Master. You have to hold on!"
"Yes, I want to avenge Quan Rong!" Quan Yi's eyes were red with hatred.
He pushed away his trusted aide, straightened his back, and gritted his teeth. "Pass down the order. Summon all the soul beasts in the clan and prepare to head to Rock City!"
Although Huanhuan and the wolf beasts had run away, they could not escape!
Cang Yi and the others were going straight to Rock City to seek justice!
…
Huanhuan and the others were closer to Rock City, but because they took a leisurely pace and often stopped to rest, their speed was very slow.
Soon, they were overtaken by the canine beasts of the Blazing Flame Tribe.
However, because the two sides were in completely different directions, the two groups did not meet.
Cang Yi led the canine beasts to Rock City first.
Shuang Yun had already learned through a spatial message that Huanhuan, Bai Di, and the others were about to arrive at Rock City.
His Majesty the Beast King was very happy!
Ever since Huanhuan left home, only he and Eggy were left. Eggy despised him for not being fun and flew to the feather tribe's territory every day. Later, she simply stayed at the house of the feather tribe's leader, Shen Yan.
Hence, only Shuang Yun was left at home.
He felt lonely and cold without anyone by his side.
Now that Huanhuan and the children were finally coming back, he finally didn't have to be an old man anymore.
He happily gathered his men and prepared to welcome Huanhuan, Bai Di, and the others on the way.
At this moment, Jiu Yuan ran over and reported in a low voice, "Your Majesty, a group of dog beasts has gathered outside the city. They're all soul beasts. They don't look friendly."
Shuang Yun's heart skipped a beat. "Take me there!"
They raced to the watchtower beside the city wall.
From this height, Shuang Yun could clearly see that many dog beasts were gathered outside the city. There were probably at least 200 of them. They were all unfamiliar faces. It seemed that this was their first time in Rock City.
Shuang Yun stared at the leader of the dog beasts twice to confirm that he really didn't know him.
Since they didn't even know each other, how could there be a grudge?
Was there a misunderstanding?
Shuang Yun got someone to open the city gate. He led an elite team through the city.
The two sides were about 10 meters apart.
The dog tribe leader, Cang Yi, asked, "Which one of you is the beast king of Rock City?"
Shuang Yun replied, "It's me."
Cang Yi looked him up and down. "You're Shuang Yun?"
"Yes, and you are?"
"I'm the leader of the Blazing Dog Tribe, Cang Yi!"
Shuang Yun smiled. "So you're the leader of the Blazing Dog Tribe. Please forgive me for not welcoming you."
Unexpectedly, Cang Yi did not buy it at all and roared gruffly, "Stop talking nonsense with me. We came to Rock City today to seek justice from you!"
"Justice?" Shuang Yun was surprised. "I don't understand. What's going on? Please explain."
If it were when he first found out that his brother had been killed, Cang Yi would have rushed forward to kill Shuang Yun for revenge. He would definitely not stand here and talk nonsense with him. However, after such a long journey, his murderous intent had decreased.
If he really wanted to fight head-on, the 200 members of the Blazing Dog Tribe would definitely not be a match for Rock City.
If he wanted revenge, he had to think of another way.
Cang Yi said, "Is your mate's name Lin Huanhuan?"
Shuang Yun was even more puzzled. "Yes."
"Your mate and your children once passed through our Blazing Flame Tribe. Later, they joined forces to kill my brother, Quan Rong!"
