Chapter 315: Chapter 313 She’s More Anxious Than Anyone Right Now!
In the spring months of April and May, the weather was just right, neither cold nor hot, and even basking in the sun in the courtyard felt warm and comfortable.
Four males were killing a wild boar while talking and chatting.
Mostly, it was Auro and Robby asking Ming Linyuan about some matters of the Eastern District, while Lin Lang was busy with the task at hand.
As Sally’s Father Beast, although he had only recognized her not long ago, as an elder, he still needed to ask the necessary questions, “Are your parents satisfied with Sally as a daughter-in-law?”
“Yes, they both like her,” Ming Linyuan replied.
“That’s good. It’s just that the distance is too far; otherwise, the two families could dine together and visit each other.” Auro continued to inquire, “How did you two meet?”
“I’m in business all year round, and I met Yanyan in the Beast Forest,” answered Ming Linyuan.
Lin Lang placed the intact pigskin he had stripped into a wooden basin, “Does Yanyan also go into business with you?”
Ming Linyuan looked at him, then suddenly said with a laugh, “What if she does, what if she doesn’t?”
“If she’s home alone, it’s too unsafe. I don’t mind accompanying her,” Lin Lang spoke, his words almost amounting to a declaration of willingness to take a secondary position.
Sally came over with tea and a mix of dried meat and fruit, only to overhear this critical topic of conversation.
Rushing to put down the items, she prepared to leave.
However, Ming Linyuan didn’t seem to let her off the hook, “Yanyan, have you told your dad about having another Beast Husband?”
Even if Sally didn’t mention it, he could guess that Zi Qi’s relationship with her was certainly not shallow, and possibly, he was indeed a true Beast Husband.
As expected, Sally’s expression became somewhat unnatural, knowing that he was hinting at Zi Qi. She simply admitted, “Yes, I have another one.”
“That one is often at ‘home,’ ready to fulfill Yanyan’s every need at any time!” Ming Linyuan said with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile.
Although he was only testing the waters with his question, when she actually confessed, Ming Linyuan felt quite annoyed inside.
Sally looked at Ming Linyuan, silent for a moment, “Yes, he can satisfy all my needs. So why do I need you? That’s why I’m considering, getting rid of you—”
“Ah! I just remembered, I haven’t finished weeding the vegetable garden. I’ll go right now.” Ming Linyuan ran off before she could finish speaking.
Sally’s expression turned cold, then she looked at Lin Lang, “Cherish Ashley well; she is the female suited for you. I will be waiting to attend your wedding feast.”
Zulu was the male she hesitated on whether or not to accept because there were three children tying them together.
Lin Lang was Ashley’s Beast Husband and the Father Beast of her fourteen children, and he was also the future Clan Leader of the Rat Tribe.
“Yanyan, I…” Lin Lang hung his head low for a while before lifting it up again, revealing a bright smile like the sun, “Alright, I got it.”
Sally looked at him, her face showing a sincere smile from the heart, “Tonight, I’ll cook a sumptuous meal myself. Brother, take some of the fruit you picked and make a trip to the Witch Clan, invite Ashley over for dinner, just say Lin Lang is here.”
“Sure, I’ll head there now,” Robby replied.
Lin Lang continued with the boar, his voice a bit nasal as he kept his head down, “Then, can I recognize you as a sworn sister?”
“Only if you recognize my dad as your sworn father first,” laughed Sally.
Auro could also see that these two were fated but not destined to be together, “Hehe, as long as Lin Lang doesn’t mind that I’m old and not very useful.”
“Sworn father,” Lin Lang’s words came out quickly, so quickly it seemed as if he was afraid he would regret it.
Sally walked over, “Now I have another brother to protect me. Let’s hug.”
Lin Lang finally couldn’t hold back, and as he hugged Sally, he shed a tear.
Sally could feel it.
Whether it was in the past or the present, Lin Lang had feelings for her, but she was unable to respond.
Even if she retraced her steps from before, her journey wouldn’t be much easier the second time around.
Xiaomei, this Offspring System, was in decline. She spent every day among a pile of cubs, leading them in games and practices to level up.
As for her, whether to bear children or not was a matter of preference.
If asked, she had only one answer, “Just repeat what you did before, there’s no big difference with the Holy War. Eat more Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures when pregnant and remember to take Golden Marrow Pills that enhance the Talent Innate Secret Technique.”
If she wanted to catch the wave of the Holy War, go find Frans, she had to hurry up and have children to upgrade her Offspring System to the Spirit Beast-grade.
The higher the talent of her offspring, the better.
Not for the sake of Fertility Points—for she lacked none— but to accrue points necessary for upgrading the Offspring System.
Ashley arrived with quite a few ingredients and even helped Sally in the kitchen.
“My grandmother entrusted me with a task, which is to ask you where the salt and sugar come from and whether it’s possible to supply our clan with them over the long term?”
“Hm?” Sally thought for a moment, then pointed outside to Ming Linyuan who was drinking, “Him.”
“Your Beast Husband?” When it came to this, Ashley hadn’t expected that Sally’s Beast Husband would be from the Eastern District. Even her grandmother was stunned and repeatedly urged her to maintain a good relationship with Sally.
Sally nodded, “He’s a merchant, he has whatever goods you want.”
Having completed her task, Ashley was overjoyed, “That’s great, I’ll go back and tell my grandmother.”
Sally even whispered to Ashley, “Rumors say that the clans cooperating with him are basically not attacked by Demon Beasts.”
“Why?” Ashley was astonished.
“Maybe because doing business with him brings better luck.”
Of course, it was because he was the Demon King. No Demon Beast would dare to cut off the Demon King’s revenue source.
…
At the Beast Emperor’s Palace.
Zi Qi was amusing Little Shiqi, allowing his delicate dragon horns to ram against the palm of his hand as it ‘attacked’ vigorously…
He had thought she would bear him a Sacred Tier little mouse.
But instead, she gave birth to a miniature version of himself, and one with the Merit Divine Rank Divine Beast cub at that.
She seemed unaware of the priceless treasure she had given him. With this one offspring alone, she could command him to do anything.
Since she was so cluelessly generous, he would let her gather the rest of the Beast Husbands.
Without this child, he would never have let her leave.
The immediate problem was the Holy War. Only Spirit Rank males without offspring were eligible to participate…
Yu Yan, holding several letters, placed them on the imperial desk. Seeing a few crumpled papers in the wastebasket, he said with a smile, “Your Majesty hasn’t decided on the Crown Prince’s name yet?”
“He’s not the Crown Prince.” Zi Qi pinched Little Shiqi’s dragon horns, his gaze tender to the point of doting, “He is the seventeenth in line of succession.”
“What about the other sixteen?” Yu Yan was puzzled.
“Waiting for her to hand them over.” Zi Qi’s lips curved slightly, “She’s more anxious than anyone else, so I won’t pressure her.”
“…” Yu Yan was even more confused. Who’s handing them over?
“By the way, any news on that kid from the Rong Family?”
“Heard he had another fight with his stepmother and ran away from home.”
“Hmm.”
“Your Majesty is so concerned about that blockhead, is there a problem with him?”
“Not him, but someone else.”
…
Night fell, and Lin Lang left with Ashley.
Watching their retreating backs, Sally said, “Don’t they match well?”
Ming Linyuan’s gaze remained on her, “Indeed, a match made by heaven and earth.”
Seeing that he hadn’t actually looked, Sally laughed and reached out her hand, “Yours.”
“Hm?” Ming Linyuan was perplexed but extended his hand out anyway.
Sally took his hand, their fingers interlacing.
Ming Linyuan’s eyes instantly deepened, “Yanyan…”
Sally said with a smile, “You worked hard today. Let’s go for a walk.”
A slap rang out — ‘Snap—’
The two looked at each other, then towards the direction of the kitchen.
