Chapter 112 Bullying Him (Bonus Chapter 9 for Gupu Tickets)
"Wow—Mom...is she asleep?" Ruan Gang asked innocently.
Ruan Ling pressed a claw down on Ruan Gang's head: "Brother, stop saying things that will get you beaten up."
The two little Lingyue leopards, Ruan Qinyi and Ruan Qin'er, and the silver dragon Ruan Zeyi, along with the black dragon Ruan Ze'er, all peeked out from the cub stroller. The two little dragons, Ruan Zesan and Ruan Zesi, were too small to see them even if they were curious and stretched their necks.
Little Lion Ruan Congyi whispered to his younger sister Ruan Ruan in cub language, "Look, Qin Ying and Long Niannian were put in the cub playground. They couldn't see their mother's heroic act of being burned!"
He was somewhat annoyed that he hadn't understood the cub's words, and said in a low voice, "Your mother is receiving blessings! Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!"
Ruan Qinyi nodded knowingly, then asked curiously, "So that's it, it's for praying for blessings!"
The cubs here had their own kind of fun, while the beastmen watching in the square gasped.
After the light on Ruan Xiyue disappeared, her superpower level increased by one level, from orange to gray.
"Holy Maiden of the Dawn!"
"Holy Maiden of the Dawn!"
The beastmen excitedly called out Ruan Xiyue's name, as if this way everyone could share in the joy.
Ruan Xiyue's miraculous upgrade of her superpowers at the blessing ceremony surprised even Jiu Chen's master.
He looked at his hands and began to doubt his own existence. Had his ability to pray for blessings become so powerful?
[Host! How's it going? I've given you an advance on the power-up reward for this cub-breeding event! Isn't that helpful for building your Beast City?]
[You scared me! Next time you're going to put on a big show for me, give me a heads-up first! Otherwise, what good will it do you if you scare me to death?]
Oh. So much grievance.
But this feeling... is so great! So much fun!
[Everything has two sides, host. More orcs will plot against you, but by making predictions, this phenomenon will also reduce the obstacles to building your beast city.]
"Okay, it's alright. I'll practice my fighting skills and ability usage more in the future. Now that the cub is developing with you, I'm not so restrained. Don't worry! I'll strengthen myself!"
Jiu Chen suddenly widened his eyes and stared at Ruan Xiyue's stomach.
[It's been three days. The male Jiuchen has sensed his own bloodline, host.]
For some reason, when Ruan Xiyue saw Jiu Chen's astonished expression, she wanted to tease him.
She's determined to bully him.
He used to be so cold to her. Now, let's change things up! She's my type! Serves you right for being so cold! Humph!
Jiu Chen's master then came to his senses and said loudly, "The Beast God highly approves of the two prospective Holy Maidens, and the Holy Maiden Sacrifice and Blessing Ceremony has come to a perfect end!"
Ruan Xiyue turned to leave, but Jiu Chen grabbed her wrist in a moment of panic.
Ruan Xiyue stared coldly at Jiu Chen's well-defined fingers, and the scene of those hands wantonly ravaging her skin flashed through her mind...
Ruan Xiyue quickly pulled her hand back.
"You..." Jiu Chen was about to speak.
Ruan Xiyue then threw herself into Xia Weier's arms.
"I'll cook you something delicious tonight. Okay?"
Xia Weier smiled and said, "Alright. Let's go back first. The cub is too young and shouldn't be exposed to the wind."
With a simple hook of his hand, Xia Weier picked Ruan Xiyue up and carried her horizontally.
Jiu Chen's lips turned pale. He watched their departing figures, his mind in turmoil.
Jiu Chen's master couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? You seem distracted?"
Jiu Chen hesitated for a moment, then quickly made a decision.
He looked intently at his master and asked, "Master, if one senses their own bloodline, is it possible to misjudge it?"
Jiu Chen's master frowned: "What kind of stupid question is that? Bloodline intuition is a supreme ability bestowed upon the entire Beast God Continent by the Beast God. This can't be... wait... you..."
Jiu Chen nodded: "Thank you, Master, I understand!"
Jiu Chen went straight after the disappearing figures of Ruan Xiyue and her group.
Jiu Chen's master raised an eyebrow, shook his head with a smile, and sighed, "Youth is truly wonderful!"
Jiu Chen chased after Ruan Xiyue to her doorstep, straightened his priest's robes, and was about to knock when he was taken away by the beastmen of the Beast City Guard, who claimed they had urgent business to attend to.
Inside the door, Ruan Xiyue learned of the situation, pursed her lips, and said nothing.
Qin Ye frowned, looking at Ruan Xiyue who was pouting as if lost in thought, and said with some concern, "She's pregnant with my child again... Is there really no problem? You've only had your heart meridian injured for a few days..."
Ruan Xiyue grasped Qin Ye's large hand and placed it next to her cheek: "It's okay! Don't worry!"
Qin Ye turned to Cong Xian and said, "In a couple of days, my brother and I will go hunting to improve our strength. I'll need you to take care of Yue'er at home."
Cong Xian shook his head: "There's no need to talk about trouble or not. I'm also Yue'er's beast husband, so taking care of her is only what I should do."
The little ones hadn't run around freely at home in a long time, so they ran around the living room, mimicking their fathers' words, and had a great time.
Long Ze brought out several plates of fried meat from the kitchen and looked at Xia Weier: "Is it confirmed? We're leaving tomorrow?"
Xia Weier nodded: "The people sent by the Holy City are all their trusted confidants. I'll just go to the Holy City, which will allow them to focus their attention on me and keep them from thinking about Yue'er."
Secondly, I can give Yue'er a push in establishing the Beast City.
Thirdly, I need to find out who exactly wanted to harm my cubs. Who tampered with the Sacred Locust Amber Flower…”
Long Ze nodded: "It's fine as long as you've arranged everything. The guard team you sent to escort Luo Yurou to investigate my affairs, I hope there won't be a second time."
The dining table suddenly fell silent.
Xia Weier smiled and said, "I didn't know you back then. I just wanted to make sure one thing: that you didn't do anything to Yue'er."
Long Ze glanced at Xia Weier with a half-smile, then put another piece of braised pork rib on Ruan Xiyue's plate, who was eating meat with her head down, and changed the subject: "Don't just focus on the fried meat, I also made your favorite braised pork ribs and sweet and sour braised beast wings."
The meal went fairly well.
After a satisfying meal, Xia Weier cleaned up the kitchen and returned to the room, only to find Ruan Xiyue fast asleep, sprawled out on her back. A smile crept onto his lips as he pulled Ruan Xiyue into his arms and they both drifted off to sleep.
....................................
Jiu Chen finally finished his work and knocked on Ruan Xiyue's door.
It was Cong Xian who opened the door.
"Is the Holy Consort Xiyue here?" Jiuchen asked bluntly.
Cong Xian frowned slightly, then heard Ruan Xiyue walk over carrying the cub and ask, "What is it?"
"May I come in and talk?" Jiu Chen's deep eyes followed Ruan Xiyue's every move closely.
Ruan Xiyue nodded lazily and handed the cub to Cong Xian.
Jiu Chen sat somewhat awkwardly on the living room sofa: "I know that Xia Weier left Mingyue Beast City the day before yesterday. Yesterday, Long Ze and Qin Ye also left. I can... I can wait for them to come back..."
Ruan Xiyue asked, puzzled, "Why are we waiting for them to come back?"
"To form a mate... it's best if the previous beastmen all agree. I..."
Ruan Xiyue raised her hand, interrupting Jiu Chen: "Wait...why would I want to become your partner?"
Jiu Chen's sharp, cold eyes showed a slight surprise, as if all the aloofness in his personality had vanished. The aloofness that once kept people at arm's length was now completely gone, replaced by the expression of a bewildered baby.
