Beast World: A Fragile Beauty Blessed with Many Children-Chapter 216 - 215: It’s All a Matter of Mutual Consideration

Chapter 216: Chapter 215: It’s All a Matter of Mutual Consideration

A Level 13 Hunting Falcon could hold his own against Great Elder Ni Chang.

’Who in the world is this Cat Beast Saintess? Why is every single one of her Beast Husbands someone the Golden Python Ni Family can’t afford to provoke?’

"We were in the wrong," the beastman said, gritting his teeth reluctantly.

’It was just that the Ni Family had been riding too high lately. They were used to throwing their weight around, and upon seeing a member of the Iron-eating Beast Clan, they couldn’t resist trying to show off. They had gotten a bit carried away.’

’And he’d even had the gall to confront Wei Ce.’ Cold sweat beaded on his forehead.

However, a cold glint flashed in his downcast eyes. ’Elsewhere, a beastman’s personal strength might mean everything. But Beast City is different. It’s a place where the powers of families and clans are deeply entrenched.’

’They had plenty of ways to make even High-level Beastmen suffer in silence!’

Once the squad of Beast Soldiers had scurried away with their tails between their legs, Xu Ye, who had been hiding behind Zhi Qi’s legs, pattered forward, huffing indignantly and "youyou"-ing.

Xuyou was no longer burying her face in Zhi Qi’s embrace. She waved her little arms and also started "youyou"-ing ferociously without end.

Although Si Shuo couldn’t understand what they were saying, they were a perfect, living embodiment of acting tough when you have powerful backup. ’And that string of "youyous" sounds surprisingly foul...’

Wei Ce laughed and gently tugged Xu Ye’s tail. "Not bad. You’re smart enough to be scared at your age instead of being reckless. You deserve some praise for that. But we can’t be like them—all bark and no bite."

"Having strong fists is what truly matters! Right now, your fathers are here to protect you. But when you grow up, you’ll have to learn to stand on your own two feet."

Si Shuo shot him a surprised look. ’Not bad. He’s finally acting a bit like a father. Hearing such serious words come from a national treasure is actually quite endearing!’

Xu Ye nodded emphatically with a grunt, stomping his little hooves and looking adorably fierce.

Xuyou clenched her tiny fists. "Ah, fight!"

This made the adults stifle their laughter.

However, Yin Jiang’s brow was furrowed. He glanced at Zhi Qi before saying to Si Shuo, "The Ni Family has been searching all over Beast City for someone recently.

"Shuo’er, from now on, you must have two or three of our men with you whenever you go out.

"Even we men need to be more careful when we’re out. We can’t let them pick us off one by one."

Si Shuo nodded. "I understand. Ni Chang is the highest-Level beastman in Guangshou City. He’s already wary of Brother Ce, and now he has Brother Jiang to worry about as well.

"Even if we don’t bother them, they’ll probably want to nip any potential threat in the bud!"

’What’s that saying again? How can you let another sleep soundly beside your bed? We may not intend to harm anyone, but we must guard against those who would harm us.’

"That’s right. We just arrived in Guangshou City, and even with the Iron-eating Beast Clan’s support, we haven’t established a firm foothold yet. It’s best to avoid a direct confrontation with them for now," Yin Jiang said, nodding and ruffling her hair with a smile. "But Shuo’er, you have to trust us. It won’t be long before our whole family can go about our business openly."

’We’ve already provoked the Winged Dragon Clan, and now the Golden Python Ni Family is going crazy over god-knows-what.’

Si Shuo hummed in agreement. "Perfect. I’ll be busy at home for the next few days anyway, practicing my calligraphy, making talismans, and preparing medicinal herbs for the poultry. Aren’t you all preparing to enter the Secret Realm for training soon?

"The cubs and I will be waiting for you at home."

Zhi Qi smiled and wrapped an arm around her shoulder. "Just look. Is there any other female out there as thoughtful and sensible as our kitty?"

Many females have an innate sense of superiority, especially after receiving a male’s Beast Mark. They practically treat their males like slaves, only knowing how to take for their own convenience, without a single thought or care for their partner.

Si Shuo lifted her chin slightly. "But of course! If I’m doing well, everyone else will be well. And I happen to cherish my own life a great deal."

’Tsk. Coming from any other female, those words would sound incredibly selfish, but when she said them, their hearts felt warm.’

’In this world, there’s no such thing as blind sacrifice. It’s all about empathy and treating others as you want to be treated!’

Xuyou mimicked her mother, lifting her chin. "Me good! All good..."

Si Shuo pinched her little nose. "You little copycat."

Xuyou giggled. "Youyou, ’cat!"

After a walk around, the kids were exhausted. They were all being carried on the way back and had fallen fast asleep before they even reached home.

The men of the family all returned in the evening. As newcomers reporting for duty, it was only natural for them to be ostracized. However, each of them was stronger than the last, so at least on the surface, no one dared to provoke them.

"We still don’t know much about how things work in the Beast Soldier Camp. We’ll observe for a couple of days, then join the arena tournament and win a Little Captain position for you," Xiao Cheng said upon returning, sidling up to Si Shuo to beg for fruit.

Si Shuo smiled and brought out a fruit platter she had already prepared, sharing it with everyone.

The two cubs hadn’t grown their teeth yet. When Xu Chi had free time, he would use his Wind Ability to blend fruit puree for them, but they still preferred to gnaw on the fruit themselves.

Right now, one was hugging a piece of watermelon and the other was gnawing on a banana, sitting up like little people as they listened to the adults talk.

Gong You smiled and nodded. "That’s right. We have to secure Little Captain positions before the grand tournament for Beast Soldiers and Generals. That’s the only way we’ll have a shot at competing for Squadron Captain after winning the individual matches."

Wei Ce watched the little female and the cubs, who had a banana in one hand and a watermelon in the other, munching away so happily they were practically bobbing their heads.

Hearing this, he swallowed the fruit in his mouth and said, "The two Secret Realms in our clan open in rotation, one every three days. Because many of our beastmen are Beast Soldiers who are either on duty or spending time with their mates, they always open at night.

"Out of the ten available spots, five are rotated among everyone, and the other five are earned through individual competition. The elders have agreed to let you all participate. Coincidentally, there are two more opportunities before the grand tournament, so you can decide among yourselves who goes.

"Time flows differently in the Secret Realms than it does out here. About ten days pass inside for every half a day in the outside world... In fact, one of them is opening tonight..."

Zhi Le and the others nodded with solemn expressions. Since Xu Chi and Xiao Cheng weren’t planning to compete for a squadron captain position this time, they decided to take turns entering the Secret Realm. The one who stayed behind would help Wei Ce look after Si Shuo and the cubs.

Meanwhile, Zhi Le, Gong You, and Yin Jiang would venture into both Secret Realms to not only solidify their cultivation but also attempt to elevate it further!

Wei Ce couldn’t help but add a reminder. "Inside the Secret Realm, don’t trust anyone easily. Some of them are members of our Iron-eating Beast Clan, and others are the Couple Brothers of our clan members."

With just that one sentence, the men understood the complex interests at play.

He then looked at Si Shuo and remembered something else. "There are many flowers and plants in the Secret Realm that are rare on the Beast World Continent. You can transplant some to the public cultivation area for Shuo to have a look."

Si Shuo’s eyes sparkled as she nodded. "Right. Prioritize your training first, but if you come across any unusual plants, please pick a few. By the time your training is wrapping up, I should have them identified, and then you can go back and gather them in large quantities.

"Anyway, your training is the priority. Don’t put the cart before the horse!" The men naturally smiled and agreed. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Since the men had business, dinner was served early. However, Si Shuo didn’t eat with them. Instead, upon receiving a note that Ji Liang had arrived in Lin City, she teleported over on an empty stomach, ready for a feast!
