If there were more spiritual energy stones available, the probability of his success would be even higher, but what he had now was enough. His wife had already worked hard enough. He would treasure every bit of the spiritual energy stones that she had obtained.
Once he succeeded, he would be stronger than pure demons and fiends. There was even a chance that he could recover his sight.
In the dark night, gossamer-like laughter sounded.
Although he had seen her several times using his demon consciousness, he still really wanted to see her with his eyes. He wanted to see what she looked like when she laughed and what her expression looked like when she called him husband. Was her soft waist as temptingly slender as he thought?
There were five more days left.
During the following five days, he had to focus and could only leave out a trace of consciousness to guard against danger. He wouldn’t be able to chat with her.
During the cultivation process, he might dirty his clothes as his body pushed out the impurities.
Going down that path of thought, Mr. Gray Wolf blushed again.
If she didn’t mind that he was dirty, it was fine if she didn’t change his clothes. He was already her wolf. If she wanted to kiss him, that was okay too…
Ruan Qiuqiu had no idea that the wolf had already daydreamed about them exchanging what he considered an extremely intimate kiss while she was asleep.
If she knew about it, she would definitely think Mr. Gray Wolf was too innocent. She didn’t have any practical experience either, but she had extremely rich theoretical knowledge and knew that a simple peck on the lips couldn’t be considered a super romantic kiss.
After Ruan Qiuqiu woke up from her dream of kissing Yuan Jue, she glanced at the sleeping wolf next to her. Blushing, she thought; even if it was only a simple kiss, it had to last at least three seconds!
She swiftly got out of bed, did the daily cleaning, and fed herself and the wolf. Then, she checked the dried meat in the storage room. After thinking over what she would do today, she put on her woven raincoat and picked up her spear. She decided to go out and bring rattan home to weave.
The weather wasn’t bad today. Although the temperature had dropped a lot compared to the past few days, it was only lightly snowing. It was still convenient to go out.
She had recently dug out two more traps. Too much had happened in the past few days, so she didn’t have time to check on them. She could go check on them on her way to getting rattan. She might be lucky enough to catch small prey with those traps.
And there was that matter with Grandpa Mo and Qing Ruyi. She couldn’t put down her worries about that.
After planning out her path, Ruan Qiuqiu left enough healing water by the bed and wanted to sneak a few pats on the wolf’s ears before leaving the cave.
This time, Ruan Qiuqiu was sure that Mr. Gray Wolf was asleep. But, due to last night’s dream, she felt too embarrassed to pat his ears. Instead, she just gently applied medicine to his injured ear. The newly grown fur on his ear was very fine, much softer than the rough fur on his tail and felt nicer to touch. Ruan Qiuqiu’s eyes curved. “Gray wolf Tianluo, watch over our home~”
The place where she had set up the traps wasn’t far from where they lived. It didn’t take long for Ruan Qiuqiu to get there.
A while ago, she had picked up an egg under the trap that was below a few giant trees. Later on, she had deepened the trap.
From a distance, Ruan Qiuqiu saw that the area around the trap had been disturbed. Her eyes brightened. She ran forward, brushed away the accumulated pile of snow on the trap, and saw a dying pigeon in the trap. The pigeon was much bigger than modern-day pigeons. It was almost the same size as a chicken. She picked up the pigeon and estimated that it was about 2.5 to 3 kilograms.
Ruan Qiuqiu used spiritual energy to check if there was anything wrong with the pigeon. Once her spiritual energy reached the pigeon’s stomach, she unexpectedly felt strong spiritual energy there.
Ruan Qiuqiu widened her eyes in surprise. She carefully checked that spot and confirmed that there were four spiritual energy stones in the pigeon’s stomach. Each spiritual stone was nearly level 5. They were small – each of them were only the size of her pinky – but combined, they were almost half the size of the smaller spiritual stone she had dug up last time on the cliff.
