I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot [BL]
5.31 First Violet Star - First Trial 'Snowstorm'
The males were following Shizi and Meizhou's orders to clean up the place for dinner. Though there were few male whom the two leaders could command, most elders were watching by the sidelines together with all their faces either bruised or swollen and covered in herbs the doctors and apprentices had treated them with.
Under the strict supervision of Shizi and Meizhou, no one in the tribes died. Not even one broke a bone but almost all of them were covered in bruises and had swollen pig faces. Some females who got into the fight had few scratches on their faces and their hairs were messy enough to qualify as a bird nest. Though at this moment as if unify was formed between females they silently giggled at their males swollen pig faces.
Obviously after that one huge brawl the tension between two tribes had lessened greatly. Even those elders who had the largest swollen faces stayed together in one table drinking wine while waiting for the dinner to be served. Their conversations seem like gibberish to others as they couldn't properly pronounce any words properly in their state. Magically these equally beaten elders could understand each other.
The young beastmen especially the children had watched their elders talking weirdly as if they were seeing aliens for the first time. The children of each tribe had lesser hatred for each other. As soon as the snacks were shared with each other, they've all started getting along well. Xuebao, upon his orders, asked the females of his tribe to provide the people of Soleil tribe clothing and shoes for winter.
Since there are too many people Xuebao and Tuzi decided to just cook hotpot for dinner. The tribesmen from both tribes could choose whether they wanted meat or seafood hotpot. After the base soup was made the rest of them could try putting in the food they wanted in the pot and waited for it to cook.
Once the dinner banquet had started the one who did the opening remarks were Shizi and Meizhou. Xuebao just stayed silent beside Meizhou as he was cooking their table's hotpot while the Tuzi helped the elder's part.
Shizi and Meizhou stood in front to begin the announcement. The first opening remarks were left for Meizhou to begin.
Meizhou announced, "This is the first evening for our two tribes to eat evening banquets together. There would be more days to come after the two tribes had completely merged. I am the Young tribe leader's proxy. You can call me Warrior Leader Meizhou. I am the fiancé of the former Lune Tribe's Young Leader, Xuebao. Pleasure to meet you all!"
Beast roars and claps were heard within the tribe. There are even some who whistled in excitement.
Shizi was the second one who spoke, "I am Shizi. The former tribe leader of Soleil Tribe. After the two tribes had merged I will most likely become a Warrior Leader like Warrior Meizhou here. It was decided that the future Tribe Leader of the Sun and Mood Tribe would be Xuebao which the we and the elders had unanimously decided. This is due to the factor of both strength and intelligence! We still need to prepare for the upcoming trials but for tonight we should at least enjoy ourselves!"
"Let the banquet begin!!!" The two tribe warrior leaders announced.
The dinner shared by the two tribes had begun. For the first time in the history of this primitive world two tribes had decided to merge and walk forward for the future they would have as one tribe and one family.
---
The merging of two tribes was finalized. The tribe will be called Solune Tribe which means the Sun and Moon Tribe as one. The warriors got so drunk that they had all fallen asleep under the evening sky. The female couldn't bring them all back to their places at the same time and couldn't let them sleep outside as its winter season. In the end the females had to ask help from their new tribe leader, Xuebao to wake them up. Xuebao answered their request, stood at the center of sleeping beastmen and released pure killing intent which is enough to jolt the rest awake instantly.
Most male woke up in vigilance looking for something to fight with. There's a serious expression on their face while looking for the source of such dangerous aura. Only when they've seen a white haired beautiful female smiling at them that they've understood. This female which their elders had chosen as the new tribe leader is indeed a powerful being. His presence is even scarier than Shizi or Meizhou, the strongest male among them.
Moreover to be able to smile while emitting such dominatingly aura made it worse, within those cerulean orbs was madness for destruction. He looks no different from a playful mighty being in the legend who could decide the life and death of others with just a crook of his finger.
"Awake now? Prepare to rest in the tents that were prepared for you guys. You'll get sick if you sleep in snow well unless you wish to turn in ice popsicles then you can sleep here." said Xuebao while smiling at them.
Everyone couldn't help but salute in his presence stiffly standing afraid they'll instantly get killed on one of this person's whims. They were grateful in their hearts when they saw Warrior Meizhou approached Xuebao and covered him with a thick fur coat before carrying him in his arms. Under the moonlight this couple really looks like Gods descending on earth. They are both strong with irrefutable presence and captivating appearances.

Xuebao's eyes turned gentle when looking at Meizhou. He reaches out his arms and hugs his neck. "Hm~ Okay. Let's go home. My Love." he replied.
This interaction between them made those who were watching feel the undeniable love between the two. It is not merely because they suit each other nor because they would be mates in the future. The feeling exchange between them is much stronger and refined. A true love exchange between two souls would be more an appropriate explanation. It made others envious of their love.
When morning arrived most swollen faces of the tribesmen had lessened overnight thanks to the concoction the doctors had given to the warriors. Except for a few light bruises here and there, the rest could speak normally now.
As soon as the tribe merged, the new tribe was now called the Solune Tribe. Since it's winter the two tribes had decided to focus first in gathering food and daily cleaning of that humongous cave formerly owned by the king of savage beasts. After surveying inside the cave the elders had decided to prepare things for living in the cave. Food and water were stored in one of the separate spaces inside the cave making a temporary food storage. Clothing and blankets were prepared as well. They've also started covering the floor with mats for sleeping purposes. Things like wood coals were made under Xuebao's orders to be used during winter.
To avoid air poisoning a few window-like holes were made above the ceiling of the cave, stone chimneys were molded under Xuebao's commands. At the beginning no one understood the meaning of these actions except for otherworlder like Xuebao. Only when the snow storm arrived that they understood the meaning of these things.
They've made necessary preparations. Xuebao, Shizi and Meizhou split into groups focusing on hunting food whether it's an ordinary beast, a savage beast or slumbering animals. Most of it was hunted down. With the help of System Yue, Xuebao is able to point out the hidden caves where most hibernating animals reside. Meanwhile under Tuzi and Sheya's command the females also started gathering cooking materials and herbs to be stored.
Of course this weak team is under the protection of few male warriors from the tribe. They wouldn't allow females to walk around the forest without escort. Among the females only their tribe leader Xuebao is able to roam around this dangerous forest unhindered even if he is alone.
Former Soleil Tribe Warrior had few doubts about Xuebao's strength. Until one morning Xuebao dragged home two huge adult savage beasts called Brontosaurus. He dragged two 72 meter length dinosaurs at each hand dead back to the tribe. With not even a hint of blood on him nor bruise or scratches, Xuebao smiled at the warriors of the former Soleil tribe.
"Would these be enough proof? Or do you want me to find a T-Rex? But since the nearest one was killed, the next nearest would be at the southside of the mountain. I will get some for you when spring arrives. For now get bear with these two. Yawns~ these things didn't even put a fight that it was boring~" said Xuebao with clear boredom on his face.
The dumbfounded warriors looked at Xuebao like seeing a monster. Ever since then a single movement from Xuebao made those groups flinch. They now believe that the strongest in their tribe is neither Meizhou or Shizi but this petite looking female beastman.
"Anyway~ you guys dismantle these two for me. Send one back to be stored in the cave. As for the other one, just cook it for dinner tonight. Let's have some samgyupsal[1] for tonight! Tuzi prepared some soup and sauce for bbq later~" said Xuebao.
"Okay~ I made some kimchi as well. Let's eat that too!!" replied Tuzi.
"I want some fishcakes[2] don't make it too spicy." said Xuebao.
"That savage beast looks meaty. We'll be able to eat more tonight." said Tuzi as these two females went back inside the tribe making preparations for dinner.
The stunned male warriors could only look at each other with helpless gaze as they started working on the huge savage beasts. They were the ones who taunted the tribe leader. It's normal to get punished with work like this one. Moreover they would be able to eat a lot tonight if they've finished cutting this meat.
Then when the two weeks were up, the first snowstorm had arrived. Thanks to the tribe priests calculating the exact day the snowstorm would be falling, the tribe was able to relocate their living necessities in that huge cave ahead of time. To prevent the snow from entering inside the cave the tribe warriors had created a huge wooden door to block the entrance. The tribe happily spend their winter evenings inside the cave quietly. Since all of the necessities were prepared ahead of time there isn't much difference in their daily lives. Except that during snowstorms the warriors aren't able to go out and patrol.
The elders were happily examining the stone chimneys their tribe leader had forced them to make. Only by using it at this time they've realized the importance of those tube-like things. Thanks to these things called chimneys smoke doesn't spread inside the cave, instead moves out to the holes above the cave.
"Wow~ this thing called a chimney is amazing!!"
"Marvelous! It's a miracle!!"
"As expected from the chosen one!"
"Praise the tribe leader."
Shizi and Sheya who were passing by looked at this group of elders acting like fanboys.
Shizi spoke, "Elders a message from the tribe leader. He said to inform the tribesmen to get a few more clothing and blankets in the storage especially for the children."
"Eh? Why?" an elder asked.
It was Sheya who replied, "The leader said that in the last week of winter, the temperature would drop below zero. At that time it's more advisable for the tribe to give you their beast form to keep warm. The adults should help the children keep warm for this following week. Please inform the rest."
Another elder responded, "If it's something the leader had said then it must be true. Sheya child shouldn't you be resting more. In this type of season you should take less work. Give your tasks to your apprentices instead." he said worriedly while looking at Sheya's state. When Shizi heard this part of the conversation he couldn't help but frown.
"Thank you, elder. I would do as you say. After I've reported the leader once more." replied Sheya.
After the elders left and passed the message from the leader, Shizi observed the female beside him. After the clan had merged, Shizi had openly courted Sheya for weeks until he got entitled as his guardian. It took awhile for Sheya to accept him. He could clearly feel that Sheya's state is not good. He easily gets tired and moves slower and carefully than before. He looks sleepy most of the time as well.
After accompanying Sheya to report to Xuebao about the situation of the tribe and what the warriors who surveyed a bit outside, Sheya asked to leave.
Xuebao looked at Sheya calmly and said, "Sheya take the next week off. Rest for one whole week and ask one of your apprentices to do the reporting. You shouldn't push yourself. As a snake type beastman this kind of temperature is your weakness."
Shizi was stunned when he heard this. He never expected that the reason why his female is in a weaker state is because of the cold temperature. After remembering his female's animal form only then he remembered that snakes are cold blooded creatures. Cold-blooded animals, they will become less active in the cooler months because they will be lethargic from the cold temperatures. During the winter months, snakes and other reptiles will enter brumation. Brumation does not require the same amount of sleep as hibernation.
Sheya weakly responded, "U-Understood, leader. Yawns~" his eyes were half closing due to less energy.
Shizi instantly carried his female in his arms letting him sleep on his shoulders.
"Prepare a few more thicker blankets for him. You should keep him warm for the whole week. I will let someone else take your tasks." said Meizhou.
Shizi bow his head towards the two, "Thank my lord, sire." he said before taking his leave with Sheya in his arms. In front of Meizhou and Xuebao his OOC restrictions were unsealed like how System Yue is able to appear before Meizhou as his soul in no longer the original Meizhou.
Once the two left Xuebao summoned his little system Yue.
"Yue, anything to report?" asked Xuebao.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm[Host. The temperature would drop to -50 within the next week. It is impossible to prevent casualties in the tribe.]
"I heard there is something called a Heat Talisman in the system mall. How many could I redeem with one redemption ticket?"
[1 redemption ticket for 100 high tier heat talisman. Would the host want to redeem the item?]
"How long would a high tier talisman last?"
[It should be able to last for three days. The tribe has 200 families and 300 bachelors. The host has 10 redemption tickets.]
Meizhou who overheard their conversation spoke. "Just used the tickets to unlock other skills or talent you have. If you used heat talismans we wouldn't be able to explain its origin as it can't be made in this world."
"I can use ten redemption tickets to unlocked my original abilities?" asked Xuebao in surprise.
"Yes. Didn't he explain it to you? 10 golden tier tickets mean one whole level for cultivation. It can be exchanged for one master rank skill in the system mall." answered Meizhou.
[M-My lord that is... for employee's benefits. The host isn't... from the Nether System.]
Meizhou glared at Yue who suddenly hid behind his host.
Meizhou retorted, "Jing'er is my wife. My workplace is his own as well. I rule the Nether System and my words are law."
Beside him Xuebao is grinning while nodding his head in agreement. He really likes what his husband just said. Zhi Yue who had experienced the first hand situation called abuse of authority from his Lord God was stunned silly in disbelief.
Xuebao with an amused smile spoke, "Since it's like this I will use my tickets to unlock the Ice Attributes under my special abilities."
[Ugg~ C-Congratulation to the host. Your special ability to control Ice attributes are now unlocked.]
Hearing this Xuebao joyously jumped on his husband and gave him an intense kiss as a reward. He could feel a large hand tightly holding on his waist and behind his head as Meizhou deepens the kiss they've shared.
After their lips were separated, "Is that my reward baby? It doesn't seem enough." said Meizhou as he pressed his wife under him.
Xuebao nibbles on his chin as he replied, "Then you can get more kisses and work harder at night~" Meizhou captures those naughty lips and continued ravished it as he was given his permission to do so.
After being ignored by his host and his lord, System Yue could only leave an invisible camera to record them as he returned to his system space and sent to his boss about their Lord God's abuse of authority to make his host happy.
