Wu Xiaoyin watched as Lin and Ken suffered in the bone-eating flames until they fell silent. Their cries filled his ears, causing an inexplicable discomfort. This was the first time Lei Lu did not hold him close but rather allowed him to witness and feel the moment directly. Sometimes, you have to believe in the existence of the Beast God. Lin and Ken slowly turned to ashes. Just then, a gust of wind blew and scattered the ashes. The gray dust entered Wu Xiaoyin’s sight, nourishing the beastman…-

Lei Lu brought Wu Xiaoyin to the forest on the outskirts of the tribe. There were not many large prey animals in this forest. Because the females of the tribe would often come here to collect fruits and vegetables, the males had either driven the dangerous wild animals further away or killed them on the spot. Therefore, Lei Lu leisurely brought the little female to the forest. At this time, Wu Xiaoyin's eyes could hardly take in all the sights. As someone who vowed to taste all the delicious foods and see…

Xiao Kai asked in surprise, “What’s wrong? Is this plant really important?” Wu Xiaoyin was completely focused on the ramie. He stared intently at Bin, waiting for his answer. Bin was slightly confused and replied blankly, “It’s in the western grasslands. I saw it once when Feng took me there to play.” Wu Xiaoyin's excitement was evident in his voice. He said with a trembling voice, “That’s really great. It’s a material for making clothes. Although it’s not as good as the light gauze…

After a lively lunch, Lei Lu, Wu Xiaoyin, and the others went to the grasslands where the ramie was found, as well as the valley where the cotton grew. Wu Xiaoyin confirmed that it was indeed the clothing raw materials he needed, and the group was overjoyed. Wu Xiaoyin had drawn out the process of making ramie and the structure of a loom on the animal skin scroll. This was all thanks to the previous trip to the southwestern area where a minority group still preserved traditional weaving techniques. After…

This was Wu Xiaoyin's third cold season after coming here on the Beastman Continent. His expectations had shifted from simply wanting to see heavy snowfall to hoping to do something during the snowy days. Wu Xiaoyin counted on his fingers and thought about snowball fights, building snowmen, well... childish. Skiing, ice skating, this... Wu Xiaoyin glanced over at Lei Lu, who was making breakfast nearby, and skipped that thought. Winter fishing, hmm... sounds nice, but looking down at his reality of…

It was rare opportunity to have some leisure time, so Wu Xiaoyin prepared a feast for everyone under Lei Lu's watchful gaze: beggar's chicken, secret grilled fish, salt and pepper spare ribs, honey-roasted meat, and taro sweet soup. Kola ate so much that he was burping and didn’t want to let go. After finishing, Kola wanted to cling to Wu Xiaoyin, but under Lei Lu's “brutal hand", he could only stick out his butt pitifully and threw himself into his father's arms. After the cold season, Wu Xiaoyin…

Xin clutched the plum blossom in his hand as Feng carried him back to the tribe. Watching Feng's figure fade into the distance, Xin glared at Le and said, “Your suggestions were useless. Lei Lu didn’t even glance at me when he saw I was hurt.” Le looked at Xin, who was venting his frustration on him, and replied gently, “Isn’t it because we interrupted their hunting? You know how aggressive males can be during a hunt. Their instincts in animal form take over.” “But Lei Lu didn’t even look…

Datta scoffed and said, “Of course they know, but from what I understand, their explanations to the tribe are reasonable. Apparently, Ken from the Giant Snake Tribe dragged the previous chief's body back from the sea because your tribe mentioned that the ocean is the greatest treasure of food, so you get it.” “What happened next? How about the previous tribe chief of the Giant Fox Tribe?” Wu Xiaoyin asked, filled with curiosity. Datta sneered, “As for the previous tribe chief of the Giant Fox…

However, Wu Xiaoyin underestimated his inner fears. Reality is always harsher than imagination. As the second month of the hot season began, the entire tribe was busy stockpiling water, for fear of repeating the last hot season's problems with flooding and continuous heavy rain and contamination. Wu Xiaoyin wasn’t allowed to help at home, but he couldn’t sit still. He thought about what he could make, like models of baby cribs, rockers, toy horses, and maracas to gift to the soon-to-be-born…

However, the arrival of the harvest season left the atmosphere in the Giant Tiger Tribe somewhat depressed. It wasn't due to a lack of plants or water, but rather the absence of a bountiful harvest of fruits and wild vegetables. The high temperature of the hot season had prevented some fruit trees from bearing fruit, or the fruits that did grow were sour and unpalatable. Some wild vegetables had even dried up completely. This year marked the lowest yield of fruits and wild vegetables Wu Xiaoyin had seen in…
