Lin Mubai felt a little uneasy. He didn't know where Yan Li was going to take Su Qingqing. In his heart, he wanted to chase after him, but his mind told him that he must not act impulsively. His impulsiveness might even harm Su Qingqing.

Just like that, in such an anxious mood, Su Qingqing and Yan Li finally came back.

It was just that Yan Li's face was beaming with joy, as if he was very happy. On the other hand, Su Qingqing's face was pale, and she looked like she would faint at any second. She seemed to be able to walk only because of her willpower.

Lin Mubai was worried, but he didn't dare to step forward easily.

He had originally planned to communicate with Su Qingqing while Yan Li was away, but Yan Li was acting strangely today. She stuck to Su Qingqing the whole time and refused to leave. She wanted to keep her by her side no matter what she did, leaving Lin Mubai without even a chance to communicate with her.

Until late at night, Lin Mubai still didn't find a chance to talk to Su Qingqing.

However, seeing that Yan Li did not do anything other than sticking to Su Qingqing, and also saved his own life, he guessed that he probably was not exposed, so he could only wait and see what happened.

At night, there were three people, one outside and two inside, but they had different thoughts.

Yan Li gently hugged Su Qingqing's cold body, feeling her body temperature, he frowned, "Qingqing, your body is so cold..."

Her body temperature now felt almost the same as his, as if Su Qingqing had been in this state since what happened during the day.

Su Qingqing could only force a smile, "I... I'm fine... Let's go to sleep, Yanli..."

She was dazed, feeling a little dizzy, heavy, sleepy, and tired. She didn't want to think about anything or do anything. She just wanted to have a good sleep...

Yan Li looked at her deeply, said nothing, and patted her back gently to coax her to sleep.

Su Qingqing was probably really tired. She curled up in the blanket and soon fell into a deep sleep.

After Su Qingqing fell asleep, Yan Li got up and walked out of the cave. Outside the cave, Lin Mubai was looking at the sky. Hearing the noise, he subconsciously turned his head to look over there, and saw Yan Li standing in front of him, reaching out and grabbing his hand.

Lin Mubai's body temperature was very warm, just like when he first picked up Su Qingqing, she was also warm, but she was very afraid of the cold and had never been this cold.

Lin Mubai was startled by his action and trembled slightly, "Yan... Yanli, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong?"

Yan Li glanced at him and said nothing, only saying, "Qing Qing looks a little uncomfortable, and her body temperature is colder than usual."

Lin Mubai said, "Can I go take a look?"

Yan Li hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

Lin Mubai then stood up and followed Yan Li closely.

As expected, Su Qingqing fell ill.

This disease came on with great force, as if it had been suppressed for a long time and suddenly erupted.

In just one hour, her temperature soared to 39 degrees. Looking at the numbers on the thermometer, Lin Mubai's expression was solemn.

Although they have antibiotics and antipyretics, they are not a hospital after all. Su Qingqing's constitution is weak, and it is hard to say whether she can get better without a regular hospital.

Su Qingqing's brows were deeply furrowed, her forehead was covered with sweat, and her rosy little face was filled with an expression of pain.

"Dad...Mom...I feel so bad...I miss you so much..."

She curled up in a blanket, crying and calling the names of her loved ones.

Yan Li sat beside her and looked at her. He had never seen Su Qingqing so weak. He could feel that Su Qingqing was sick.

In fact, orcs can also get sick, and countless orcs die from illness every year. After all, it is the law of natural selection, and those with poor health will always be eliminated by nature first.

Realizing that Su Qingqing might die, Yan Li's expression became somewhat gloomy.

He grabbed Lin Mubai's collar and said viciously, "Save her!"

"I've given her medicine, applied ice patches, and covered her with a blanket. I've done everything I can. It's up to her whether she can make it. If her fever goes down the next day, she should be fine. If not..."

He didn't know what to do, after all, he was not a professional doctor.

Yan Li understood what Lin Mubai meant, but even after he did so much, Su Qingqing was still in so much pain.

He sat beside Su Qingqing, pacing back and forth restlessly, his tail wagging behind him. The amplitude was not large, but the movements were very rapid, showing what he was feeling at the moment.

This was the first time that Yan Li felt so powerless and anxious.

Su Qingqing was obviously in so much pain, but he could do nothing. His strength and everything he knew were of no use.

"What should I do? What can I do to help her?"

With nowhere else to go, he could only look over there at Lin Mubai.

Lin Mubai looked at Su Qingqing who was suffering from the illness, with a complicated look in his eyes, "Yanli, have you ever thought that Qingqing is not suitable for living in this primeval forest? She has lived in a privileged family since she was a child, with very good resources and a wealthy life. She should belong to the human world. If you force her to live with you like this, sooner or later, she will die because she can't stand it..."

"die?"

"This kind of life may not be a big deal for you, because you have a strong body, but Su Qingqing is a human being, and she is pampered. She can't adapt to here. A cold and a fever are just minor illnesses. If she were in the human world, her condition wouldn't be so bad. Do you understand what I mean?"

Yan Li pursed his thin lips, picked up a book beside him, pointed at the pictures inside and said, "Qingqing needs these?"

The above is a brochure for a foreign tourist hotel. It contains a picture of an exceptionally luxurious and comfortable five-star hotel room, as well as a variety of delicious food and entertainment options, which makes people want to find out more.

Lin Mubai nodded, "Yes, this is human life. It is more comfortable and safer than the primeval forest. Just like you are used to living here, Qingqing is more used to human life. You both have different lives."

Yan Li's expression froze. The next second, he rolled up Su Qingqing and held her in his arms, glaring at Lin Mubai fiercely, "Do you want me to send her away? Send her home and let her leave me?"

"Yanli, I..."

"Get out! If you don't want to be split in half in the next second." His voice was hoarse and chilling.

Lin Mubai's expression froze. At that moment, he felt the paranoia and murderous intent in Yan Li's eyes.
