Beast World: A Fragile Beauty Blessed with Many Children-Chapter 418 - 417: The Beast God Opens His Eyes

"I am the son of the Gray Parrot Clan’s Witch Doctor..."

"I am Lord Tal’s nephew..."

The Warriors lifted their chins, announcing their backgrounds one by one. As expected, each declaration was met with gasps from the crowd.

Every one of them came from a powerful background. They were not people the Three-tailed Blue Fox Clan—a clan known for depending on others and possessing little strength—could ever hope to provoke!

"If you want to make us stay, let’s see if you have what it takes to face the wrath of the families and clans behind us..."

"Haha, that’s hilarious! You’re only thinking of fighting back now? Too late. We already have the Fox Clan’s Blessing. Are you sure you want to take on all of our combined powers with just your one clan? I think you all have a death wish, just courting your own demise..."

The arrogant words of these Warriors struck the hearts of the clan members like hammer blows.

The righteous anger that had just flared up in the Three-tailed Blue Fox Clan Members was extinguished as if by a bucket of ice water, leaving them feeling as helpless, dejected, and desperate as ever. They understood all too well that taking one step back today wouldn’t just mean many more steps back in the future—it would be like plunging into an abyss. The last shred of dignity and status the clan members had fought so hard to protect was about to be lost forever.

The Great Elder was so furious he was trembling. The clan members’ Combat Power Values had finally started to rise, only to be dragged down by those two bastards.

He could clearly hear the wild, gleeful laughter of the Clan Leader and the High Priest. It was as if they couldn’t care less about the survival of the Three-tailed Blue Fox Clan. In fact, they were practically clapping and cheering, eager to push the clan over the edge and squeeze out its very last drop of value.

The Great Elder tasted a metallic sweetness in his throat. He was enraged, but he was powerless against these males! Was he really going to let this younger generation, who had just found a glimmer of hope, be sacrificed to the oppression and cruelty of other powers?

Meanwhile, the children had all returned to Si Shuo’s side and teleported home with Tuanzi.

Ali, sitting on Xiao Cheng’s shoulder, puffed out her cheeks in anger. "The High Priest isn’t working for our Three-tailed Blue Fox Clan! He’s just using his position for his own benefit and doesn’t care if the clan members live or die. He’s not worthy of being High Priest."

"Those Beastmen are horrible people! They’re not grateful at all. They took our Crystal Stones and then turned around to destroy our clan’s future! They don’t deserve the Fox Clan’s Blessing!"

The moment she finished speaking, the High Priest shuddered. A thread of golden light was drawn from his body, coalescing into a golden orb that began to circle above the heads of the Three-tailed Blue Fox Clan’s Beastmen.

"Father, who do you want to be the High Priest?" Ali asked, tugging on Xiao Cheng’s ear.

Xiao Cheng froze. ’Am I so angry that I’m hallucinating?’ he thought. ’Why is the dismissal and appointment of the clan’s High Priest being decided by my own daughter?’

He thought for a moment, then tentatively pointed to the man beside him—his older half-brother, Dupont. Dupont was a White Wolf Beastman, and he was currently red in the face, baring his teeth, looking ferocious enough to charge forward and take a bite out of their enemies. He was Xiao Cheng’s half-brother on their mother’s side and was mated to a young female from the clan with above-average fertility.

"What about him? Your Uncle Dupont is a White Wolf Beastman. He’s righteous, has high Combat Power, and is a hard worker. If he became High Priest, he would never have any hidden, malicious intentions!"

Any Beastman with even a drop of Three-tailed Blue Fox Clan blood could hold an important position.

Ali nodded. "Okay, then let’s make Uncle Dupont our clan’s High Priest!"

The golden orb, as if it had found its target, then joyfully surged toward Dupont.

Dupont was stunned. A warmth spread through his body, and his Divine Sense felt as if a thick layer of dust had been wiped away, becoming clear and sharp. As the golden light merged with him, a flood of inherited knowledge kneaded and cleansed his Divine Sense over and over.

His body, too, was reforged. When he opened his eyes, a fiery red flame—a divine seal—had appeared on his forehead. This was the mark of a High Priest personally acknowledged by the Beast God. The entire process took only a few moments, and the other Beastmen were still dazed, unsure of what had just transpired.

"Am... am I seeing things? Why did the divine seal on the High Priest’s forehead disappear? And why has it appeared on Dupont?"

"The Beast God must be furious! The High Priest wasn’t looking out for his own clan. Instead, he was fawning over outsiders, giving away our clan’s benefits to curry favor with them. Only a fool would do something like that. How could he possibly remain High Priest?"

"The High Priest—no, I should say Guang You—brought this on himself! Hahaha, this feels so good! I never knew the title of High Priest could be transferred. This is amazing..."

"The Beast God has finally seen the truth! A man like Guang You, who basically wishes for the clan’s destruction, was never qualified to be High Priest..."

Hearing the crowd pointing and laughing joyfully at him, a chill ran through Guang You. No one understood better than him the terror of having his Divine Power ripped away. He felt like a sea creature that had just crawled onto land, crushed by gravity and unable to move.

He closed his eyes to feel for it, but he couldn’t sense a single shred of Divine Power. The few slots for the Fox Clan Blessing he secretly kept for himself each year were gone. Even the precognitive awareness a High Priest should have about the future had been completely stripped away, leaving him as weak and helpless as he had been in his youth.

Guang You couldn’t stop himself. With a THUD, he fell to his knees before the Beast God Statue, tears of regret streaming down his face. "Lord Beast God, your follower Guang You was wrong! Please, give me one more chance! I swear I will protect the prosperity and continuation of the clan! I will never make this mistake again..." He began to kowtow forcefully, the sound of his forehead hitting the ground so hard and solid it made people’s scalps tingle.

Si Shuo was also stunned by the shocking turn of events. She turned to look at the soft, adorable little girl. ’Hmm, I have so many children, and all of them have decent talents, so I’ve gotten used to it. I haven’t really spent time figuring out what superpowers the younger ones have. My thinking was that as long as they can shift into their Beast Forms, they can train with their fathers. Their superpowers will awaken when the time is right, no need to rush things.’

’So I still have no idea what Yu Zai’s or the little fox children’s superpowers are.’

"Ali," Si Shuo leaned in and whispered, "what exactly is your superpower? How are you so amazing!"

’The High Priest was replaced just like that. Tsk, my perspective is still too narrow.’

Grabbing Xiao Cheng’s hair to steady herself, Ali sat on his shoulder and whispered with a giggle, "Mother... I don’t know either!"

Si Shuo??!! ’I got worked up for nothing.’

Seeing that the High Priest had been replaced, the expressions of the males on the stage turned sour. They exchanged a look, wanting to get off the stage and leave.

’In any case, we’ve already received the Fox Clan’s Blessing,’ they thought. ’There’s no need to stay here and have our hearts pounding in our chests.’

However, one by one, white orbs of light began to float out of their bodies—just as they had entered when they were blessed moments before!

Some of the males leaped up anxiously, trying to grab at the light. "That’s my Fox Blessing! Don’t fly away..."

But they couldn’t grasp even the slightest wisp of it. The orbs of light didn’t dissipate, yet they had no substance, simply drifting back and forth above the crowd.

The crowd below the stage grew excited, and people started shouting one after another, "Beast God, grant me a Blessing! I’m strong and have high Combat Power! I’m willing to mate with a female of the Three-tailed Blue Fox Clan..."
