Pampered in the Beast World: The Frail Beauty Has Many Children and Much Fortune – Chapter 38

Ch 38: That’s My Beast Husband

However, Ji Liang turned a deaf ear, merely lowering his head slightly to look at Si Shuo, whose cheeks were already puffed up. He put on a show of being weak and bullied, stirring the pot, “Little Shuo Shuo, someone’s come to steal your beast husband right in front of you!”

Si Shuo took a deep breath, smiled gently at Chu Man, and said, “Holy Lady Chu Man, Ji Liang is my beast husband. If he wants a female cub, it should be me who gives it to him.”

Chu Man looked her up and down disdainfully. “I know you, the mutated female cat beastman with white hair and blue eyes.”

“You yourself may not even live much longer, so why should you delay Ji Liang’s wonderful beast life?

How dare you boast about giving him a female cub?

Besides, you haven’t even received his beast mark yet, so I have a chance!”

At this point, she looked at the people of the Feng Chuan tribe and laughed softly, “Ji Liang, you used to have a merchant band composed of rogue beastmen, with exceptional combat strength. You were unrestrained in your dealings with others, and no one could do anything about it.”

“But now that you’ve left the merchant band, with just your level seven male strength, can you compare to my group of beast husbands?”

“If I take you today, what can be done? Can she, a weak female, and a level three male, protect you?”

Si Shuo was stunned for a moment. She looked at the males who had already gathered to support Chu Man, and then at the two males beside her.

She then realized a problem: it turned out that having many males could help snatch a beast husband!

Ji Liang touched Si Shuo’s head and sighed softly, “Little Shuo Shuo, I’m sorry. I’ve led the team to too many places. Although I’ve behaved properly, who told your beast husband to be too excellent, attracting the attention of many females, even Holy Ladies.”

“If you don’t claim me soon, I can only perish together with them to protect my innocence…”

Si Shuo was filled with regret. She was too stubborn. If she had claimed Ji Liang earlier, she wouldn’t have been targeted by other females.

Her mind was already starting to think about how to break the current situation.

Xu Chi glared at Ji Liang, who was playing the victim again, and stepped forward, pulling the frowning Si Shuo into his arms. “I’ll protect Si Shuo. You handle your own matters!”

He patted Si Shuo’s head and said softly, “There are many beastmen here, Ji Liang will be fine. Besides, his strength is not weak. It’s uncertain who will suffer a loss. Don’t worry, Si Shuo.”

She knew Ji Liang was powerful, but even the most powerful male wasn’t a god.

Si Shuo pursed her lips and clenched her fists tightly. She was still too weak now, unable to fight, and her healing ability was too poor!

In the future, she would have to be diligent. One day, she would be able to truly stand in front of her beast husband and suppress the opponent with her combat strength.

Indeed, no one could be too complacent anywhere, especially in the dangerous Beast World Continent.

Ji Liang put away his helpless look from earlier and returned to his usual nonchalant manner. The murderous aura around him poured out, and the surrounding air carried a chilling hum.

He raised his eyelids coolly. “Are you going to come at me one by one, or all together?

Tsk, the highest among you is only level eight in combat strength. You should think carefully. This male, me, has a particularly vicious temperament. My combat strength was honed through many life-and-death struggles. If I accidentally cripple or kill any of you, I guess this Holy Lady won’t be heartbroken. She can just go back to Nanye City and find ten more.”

His words were too piercing.

Males looked for females for relief and, more importantly, for procreation. Weren’t females also looking for males to protect them?

With more beast husbands, the females’ hearts also became biased and ambitious.

They were willing to risk their lives for the females, provided that the females’ lives were threatened, and they were forced to do their best to protect her due to the constraints of the beast mark.

Now, the female was merely snatching a male to be her beast husband, and they were expected to risk their lives?

No one was a fool!

A male with silver hair and two yellow beast marks on his neck stepped forward. “Ji Liang, I’ll fight you. If I win, you’ll become Chu Man’s beast husband. If I lose,” he looked at the somewhat embarrassed and angry Chu Man, and continued, “then you can choose which female to follow. We will absolutely not interfere.”

Ji Liang turned his head and raised an eyebrow at Si Shuo, a triumphant smile in his eyes, as if saying that he could still handle even the biggest difficulties. He looked nothing like the little wife from earlier!

Si Shuo gritted her teeth. She had been led into a trap by Ji Liang again. He was so bad.

But, with this turn of events, she really had to consider the matter of taking the two of them as beast husbands.

Ji Liang and the male didn’t waste any more words. They directly transformed into their beast forms and ran off to find a good place to fight.

Ji Liang’s reputation was great. In fact, everyone could more or less guess the outcome without even watching.

Chu Man looked at Si Shuo unwillingly, “If I were you, and I truly liked Ji Liang, I shouldn’t tie him to you, a weak female!”

“Do you even know how powerful Ji Liang is?”

Si Shuo smiled and nodded, “I know. But now I understand him a little better.”

“I will live well and healthily, let him live the life he likes, and I will also give him a female cub, a home!”

Chu Man was so angry that her face turned red. She twisted her head back to her seat and scolded the males beside her for being useless. If they were truly good to her, they would have taken Ji Liang together, instead of being scared off by his words.

Xu Chi held Si Shuo’s hand and walked to the edge of the crowd, clearing a space and lighting a bonfire.

There was a thick ancient tree behind them, which conveniently blocked everyone’s view.

Setting up a protective barrier, Xu Chi squatted in front of Si Shuo and said seriously, “Si Shuo, I’m level eight in combat strength. I trained myself in the forest with wild beasts. I’m stronger than ordinary level eight beastmen.”

“Ji Liang is a rogue beast, inherently vicious and with exceptional combat strength. It’s not difficult for him to fight across levels. He previously fought me to a draw.”

“Let’s eat first, and then I’ll temper your meridians.”

Si Shuo nodded, looked at the flashes of ability light from afar from time to time, and obediently ate her meal.

She ate two skewers of roasted river meatballs, a piece of corn and sweet potato cake, and drank some wild vegetable soup.

After Xu Chi tempered her meridians for a full cycle, Si Shuo followed his instructions and meditated for a while. She discovered that while others needed to actively draw and capture the corresponding elements in the air during cultivation, her body could automatically absorb them.

In other words, she was also cultivating while walking, eating, or sleeping. Although the spiritual energy didn’t circulate quickly in her body, water drops could pierce stone!

Si Shuo germinated a plump whip for herself. As soon as the plump whip left her control, it wanted to run into Xu Chi’s arms. She grabbed the handle and pulled it back.

“That’s my beast husband, what are you doing running into his arms!” Si Shuo pointed at the constantly twisting plump whip and snorted coldly, “If you don’t behave, I’ll smash you to pieces.”

As if sensing danger, the plump whip trembled and stopped moving, like a wilted branch that had been separated from the soil.

Huh? She looked at Xu Chi. Sure enough, it had developed spiritual awareness and could actually understand human speech?

Xu Chi was still immersed in the joy of being called her beast husband by her. His eyebrows and eyes relaxed, melting away the perennial coldness, and his eyes were filled with firelight and the stars in the sky!

Si Shuo was momentarily stunned.

Xu Chi smiled softly, leaned forward, and coaxed, “Si Shuo, do you want to have an appetizer?”
