After transmigrating, she became the most beloved beast in the world.

Chapter 13 Motorcade

The fish in Chu Xinyao's hand was an ultimate temptation for the taste buds with every bite. The incredibly tender fish meat melted on the tongue with just a gentle touch. The perfectly roasted skin was an enticing golden brown, with a slightly charred aroma. When Chu Xinyao took her first bite, the crisp sound was delightful and pleasant.

These unfamiliar spices blended perfectly with the freshness of the fish, creating a unique flavor. These spices not only removed the fishy smell but also added a distinctive taste.

"Mmm, delicious, delicious." Chu Xinyao, who was short on words, kept praising the fish in her mouth and couldn't put it down.

[Waaaaah, Sister Ting, this fish is so delicious! What I've been eating before—shea butter and the roasted meat Tiger Roar gave me—it's nothing compared to this! It's so good, so fragrant!]

Long Tingting rolled her eyes. [Alright, even food can't shut you up.] She looked at the man next to her with curiosity.

At this moment, Mo was looking at Chu Xinyao with tenderness, showing no disgust whatsoever for the way she wolfed down the grilled fish.

[This person is strange.]

Strange? What's strange about it?

Chu Xinyao, who was still eating fish, looked up at Mo beside her. Noticing her gaze, Mo turned his head and smiled at her again. His dark red pupils, combined with the two front teeth that were faintly visible when he smiled, made him even more adorable.

Chu Xinyao abruptly turned her head away, refusing to look at him. That smile was incredibly devastating to her; her heart pounded. She took a couple more bites of the fish, forcibly suppressing the urge to pinch his face.

He's so cute!

[Whatever you like.] Long Tingting has completely given up.

[Women who are obsessed with love are really undesirable.]

"What? You're saying I'm love-struck?" Chu Xinyao was startled and immediately stood up.

Mo, who had been calm and collected, stared at her in astonishment. "What's wrong? What's wrong with you?"

Chu Xinyao looked at the handsome Mo, shook her head vigorously, and silently chanted: I'm not love-struck, I'm not love-struck.

After barely managing to convince herself, she lowered her head, avoiding looking at Mo to prevent herself from being tempted by his good looks, and said softly, "No, nothing. You just said you have a caravan?" Carts in the primitive world? Were they horse-drawn carriages invented by fellow time travelers?

Mo nodded, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes: "Yes, Xinyao, where do you want to go? I can give you a ride."

Chu Xinyao was somewhat tempted. "Then... I want to go to the nearest larger tribe. Can you take me there? I can pay you, but my tribe is a bit far from here, and I don't have anything on me right now. Or..." She gritted her teeth and took out a dagger, "Here, can you take this as payment?"

Mo took the dagger, his eyes slightly closed, and finally found the faint, annoying scent of the male beastman on the little female.

"This dagger was forged using a unique technique of the Tiger Clan and is extremely valuable. Are you sure you want to use this as payment?"

Chu Xinyao hesitated for a moment, after all, she had nothing else to offer as fare. However, since Mo had given her the rare spices without hesitation, she shouldn't be stingy.

"Mm." She simply nodded.

Mo toyed with the dagger. "Alright, but this dagger is indeed too valuable. Once we get to the Holy City, we'll sell it and return the extra money to you. After all, it's inconvenient for you to be without some money."

"Ah, this..."

After putting away the dagger, Mo said, "Let's rest here for a while! My men will bring the carriage soon."

[Sister Ting, am I taking advantage of her by doing this?] Chu Xinyao bit her lip, feeling that something was not right.

He said he's a businessman, so he wouldn't necessarily suffer a loss. You... well, be careful anyway, favors are hard to repay.

[Yes, I know. It's just that there's no other way. I'm worried that if we stay here too long, Tiger Roar will come after us.]

She felt that Chu Xinyao had escaped one danger only to fall into another. However, Long Tingting did not object to her leaving with Mo. With her there, nothing should go wrong, and even if something did happen, she was confident that she could get Chu Xinyao away safely.

"Xinyao, let's go, my convoy is coming." Mo smiled at Chu Xinyao. In the distance, a strange convoy was heading this way.

Chu Xinyao looked curiously in the direction Mo pointed. The convoy slowly approached, and her eyes were filled with surprise.

The vehicles had a similar silhouette to the horse-drawn carriages she had seen on television before, but the animals pulling them were novel to her. They weren't the usual oxen and horses, but a kind of creature she had never seen before.

These creatures have robust bodies and strange blue skin that shimmers in the sunlight. Their heads resemble those of deer, with elegant antlers, but their eyes are large and bright, and their limbs are strong and powerful.

Seeing Xin Yao's surprised expression, Mo smiled and explained, "These are 'Blue Shadow Beasts,' creatures unique to our region. They are not only incredibly strong but also have excellent endurance, making them the best companions for long journeys."

Chu Xinyao approached, curiously examining them. "They're very docile; you can touch their manes," Mo suggested.

Chu Xinyao reached out and gently stroked the mane of a blue shadow beast. It obediently lowered its head; the fur was not very soft and felt a bit prickly.

"Get in the car, it's spacious inside, get in and get used to it!" Mo said, opening the door of the most ornately decorated vehicle and inviting Chu Xinyao to get in.

Chu Xinyao nodded and followed Mo's steps, her heart filled with anticipation.

The vehicle was indeed very spacious, with straw mats laid out inside and a bead hanging from the ceiling that emitted a soft glow even during the day, illuminating the entire carriage.

"Is this a luminous pearl?" Chu Xinyao's mouth dropped open. Is it really that extravagant?

“This isn’t a luminous pearl, it’s just an ordinary luminous pearl,” Mo said, taking the pearl off his hand. “It’s the seed of a plant, and after processing, it becomes this luminous pearl. But what is this luminous pearl you’re talking about? I’ve traveled almost all over the continent and have never heard of such a thing.”

"Oh, it's nothing very valuable. By the way, what is this?" She abruptly changed the subject.

Mo saw her pointing to the window, and his expression became even stranger. "The wings of a hidden insect, haven't you ever seen them before?"

Oh no, is this thing common? Oh no, has she given herself away?

Chu Xinyao was a little nervous and quickly explained, "Heh, heh, my home, my tribe is quite remote, so many things are different from these places. It's not surprising!"

“No wonder,” Mo said with a gentle smile. “Indeed, many remote tribes have almost no trade with the outside world, and their way of life and culture have preserved ancient traditions.” He continued, his eyes revealing respect for these tribes.

"Yes, yes." Chu Xinyao stopped the conversation and didn't ask any more questions.

"Xinyao, if you're tired, you can rest here." Mo got up, pulled out a piece of animal skin from under the seat, and spread it on the spot, instantly turning it into a small bed.

"Great, I'm really a little sleepy."

"Okay, let's set off then. You rest here, I'll go to the car in the back. I'll call you when it's time to eat!" Mo got out of the car and went to the back.

"Phew, looks like I really need to be careful and not let anyone notice."

[Just so you know.]

As the convoy moved forward, the surrounding scenery gradually changed, from dense forests to towering mountains.

Chu Xinyao lay in the car, enjoying the scenery along the way through the window, and fell asleep without realizing it.

Chu Xinyao left without a second thought, completely oblivious to Hu Xiao's pain upon learning of her disappearance, a pain he had only recently experienced after breaking through to the next level.

He spat out a mouthful of blood, and even his newly broken-through realm became unstable.

Hu Xiao's face turned pale instantly. His heart felt as if it had been pierced by a sharp blade, an indescribable pain.

His body began to tremble, a sense of powerlessness spreading from the depths of his heart throughout his entire being. He dared not think about what would happen to his beautiful female after she left him.

His fists were clenched so tightly that his nails dug deep into his palms, causing a sharp pain, but this pain seemed insignificant compared to the pain in his heart.

"Xinyao, wait for me, I'm coming to find you." Hu Xiao's voice was choked with emotion as he suppressed his discomfort and left the place of breakthrough.
