The cooked offering was to be offered to the gods, so Mu Qing did not see them eat the meat of the elk, they just let it burn until it shrunk and turned into a charred and black piece of meat.

Naduo seemed like she couldn’t stand to see her wearing pants, so what she meant was probably for her to wear this skirt like the rest of them did from now on.
Mu Qing pursed her lips and revealed a smile, while holding her hand to show her gratitude.
Wearing such a short skirt that showed at least two-thirds of the thighs was indeed much cooler than what she used to wear, but now that she had lost her underwear, it felt empty there without the pants, besides with the length of that skirt on her body, she had no sense of security.
