The two had already reconciled so they didn"t bother about the argument anymore and just got on with their journey happily, it seems that the outburst allowed them to vent their emotions and were no longer unhappy.They slept early that night to make up for the lost sleep, however when they woke up, they were once again in the same position.
It was as if their bodies were two magnets attracted to each other.
It also repeated the two nights after that, at this point they had gotten used to it and although there"s some awkwardness due to the close contact, they didn"t have that awkward air of "Nothing-at-all-happened, my-memory-of-the-last-12-hours-has-been-erased"
The two had given up on stopping their subconscious actions, they had explained it to themselves as something caused by the cold temperature at night.
After almost a week of wandering around the desert, they were about to exit and arrive in the next biome, so they stopped to make preparations.
"The next environment will be extremely cold, even colder than nights here, it could also be cla.s.sed as a desert since it receives extremely low rainfall, however the climate is even crueler than here, organisms could be frozen alive due to the horrifyingly low temperatures" Zi Hua explained to the mountain b.u.mpkin He Li. (A/N: See what i did there? Or should have it been Cave b.u.mpkin?)
"The cold temperatures can crack our skin so I"ve prepared some clothes before hand to protect ourselves from the unrelenting climate" She had made a set for her spirit beasts too so she gave Xiao Zi"s to him.
After finding out that their master had acquired travelling companions, the three spirit beasts had decided to observe the two and would sit in front of the screen all day as if watching a slow-progress romance drama.
The two had been furious at first when they found that He Li was being so intimate with their master, but upon further thought, they concluded that their master must"ve been lonely since they wouldn"t cuddle with her so she seeked a replacement, hmph, he was nothing but a replacement, he can"t be compared to us!
The three used that excuse to comfort themselves.
When they heard that the two were going to a cold environment they couldn"t be happier, that dog was adapted to the desert environment so it will be left here, goodbye, master belongs to us!
Luckily, they did not know that their master had made outfits for them or else Xiao Zi would"ve been angry enough to vomit blood after finding out that his master gave the clothes that were meant for him to He Li.
Like master, like spirit beasts! They were all so possessive of those close to them!
But it wasn"t bad since they had the sanity to not do anything overboard and the possessiveness only caused them to care about those around them more.
*Growl*
The sad growl attracted their attention towards Xiao Sha.
"The environment will be difficult for Xiao Sha..."
"Why don"t one of us sign a contract with it then?" He Li suggested, it would allow them to bring it along in their contract s.p.a.ce.
"But we need a beast tamer.."

No matter how harmless the spirit beast seems, if they are not tamed their subconscious will attack the person trying to contract it.
"I"m a beast tamer" Zi Hua said.
"Oh, then... which one of us is going to sign a contract with it?"
"I don"t think I can, I"ve already got three" Zi Hua said, distraught.
"I"ll do it then" He didn"t want to see Zi Hua so sad.
"Are you sure?" She didn"t want He Li to sign a contract with a spirit beast just because she didn"t want to part with it.
"Yeah, I"m quite fond of the little guy" He Li gave it a head-pat.
"Thank you" Zi Hua was grateful since she could sense that he was trying to help her.
"Do you want to sign a contract with Xiao Li so that you can come along with us?" It was important that Xiao Sha was willing.
*Woof* Zi Hua got a happy woof as a reply.
"I guess that"s a yes then" Zi Hua tamed Xiao Sha then He Li signed a contract with it and brought it into the contract s.p.a.ce after bidding farewell.
But it wasn"t forever, once they were in a better environment, they could bring him out again.
It had not occurred to the two that they could"ve just brought him into the Heaven-defying artifact until afterwards, what"s done is done...
They then continued discussing their plans.
"The crucial problem is that transitioning between the two hot environments will be too much for our bodies to take" Zi Hua stressed.
He Li thought about intently.
"What if, as we exit the desert we push heat out from our bodies gradually into the surroundings to cool down our body temperature" He Li suggested, he had thought about that previously as something to do in the desert, but it wouldn"t be very efficient since it"ll run their spiritual power dry but if it isn"t for too long, it"ll be fine.
"Great, we"ll do that then, when we"re about to reach there we can change into the other outfit" Zi Hua agreed.
"Okay" Zi Hua handed the clothing over to He Li and carried on with their journey.
