Future Beast World: Becoming A Pampered Beauty-Chapter 143 - 87: The Birth of the Wolf Pup

Sang Luo glanced around, found a flat, empty spot, and took a comforter and pillow out of her storage space. Just as she lay down, ready for a nice, long sleep, she turned her head to see Anubia lying on his side next to her, sharing her makeshift bed.

He pulled her into his arms and whispered,

"Sleep against me!"

It sounded less like a request and more like a command.

His lush, soft black hair spilled over both of them. Sang Luo stared at Anubia, her glistening eyes both playful and alluring. Two buttons on his chest had been pulled open at some point, strategically revealing his pale, fine skin and his sexy, deep-set collarbones, practically begging to be touched.

Sang Luo extended a slender, fair finger, tracing a line from his Adam’s apple down to his collarbone. She rubbed it gently, her smile bewitching. "Are you trying to butter me up? Or are you trying to seduce me?"

Looking down at her coquettish expression, Anubia couldn’t stop his mind from drifting to certain... wonderful memories. His Adam’s apple bobbed violently, and his face flushed hot.

’She’s the real soul-stealing Demon!’ he thought.

Seeing him blush in silence, Sang Luo’s eyes crinkled with amusement. She reached out again to touch his devastatingly handsome face. "Honestly, your face is so delicate and pretty... you look like you’re not even an adult..." ’Coupled with that shy expression, it’s enough to make me feel guilty.’

Anubia frowned, displeased. "I’ve been an adult for over a year now!"

Sang Luo froze, her surprise mounting. "You had only just come of age when we first met?"

Anubia fell silent again, but the tips of his ears turned beet red.

Sang Luo looked at him and suddenly laughed. ’No wonder,’ she thought. ’He looks so roguish and wild, but when you actually start teasing him, he’s surprisingly innocent and fun to mess with.’

’So he really is that pure.’

"You’re barely more than a kid yourself. Why are you even thinking about children? Go on, get out of here." ’That blasted Shi Yi is a terrible influence on innocent young men!’

Anubia frowned. "I’m not little!"

"Oh, really?"

Sang Luo reached out and gently toyed with the jade-like pendant on his ear. His earlobe quickly reddened. After an initial shiver, his body grew rigid, and his gaze on her was thick with desire.

Anubia took a deep breath, forcefully suppressing the lustful thoughts inside him. He grabbed her hand, his voice hot and hoarse. "...You’re pregnant. Behave yourself and get to sleep!"

"How can I sleep when I’m looking at a face like yours~" Sang Luo’s mischievous side was coming out; she loved teasing people, especially innocent young men like him.

Anubia turned his head away, changing the subject. "This child in your belly... whose is it?"

"Think about it. You’ve met him."

Anubia thought back on her Beast Husbands, running through every one he had ever met. ’Besides the snake and the lion...’ "Could it be that Wolf Beast?"

Sang Luo nodded. "That’s right. It’s his."

Anubia’s shoulders slumped. "He’s not dead?"

"Surviving a great disaster means good fortune is sure to follow."

"I met you not long after he did. How come he has a child with you now, and I have nothing?"

"You know, you can’t always be comparing yourself to others. It’s an easy way to drive yourself crazy."

"You!"

’Can’t she say a single comforting word?’

’That’s not what I wanted to hear!’

"I’m tired."

Sang Luo yawned. This time, she was really going to sleep.

Seeing this, Anubia didn’t press her further and tucked the comforter around her.

Soon, he heard her soft, even breathing, and an inexplicable sense of peace settled over him.

Time seemed to stretch on, quiet and peaceful. Slowly, he closed his eyes as well...

...

"Ugh!"

Sang Luo was jolted awake by a sharp pain.

Her face was pale and beaded with cold sweat. She curled into a ball, clutching her stomach.

’This feeling is so familiar...’

Anubia, startled awake by her movements, saw her state and panicked. He didn’t even dare to touch her. "Wh-What’s wrong?"

"I think... I’m going into labor..." Even breathing was painful for Sang Luo, but she managed to get the words out. "Take me back."

Conflict flashed in Anubia’s eyes. He had intended to take her back to his Royal Palace in the Insect Clan and keep her by his side, but the Insect Clan had no facilities for expectant mothers. Seeing Sang Luo in so much pain, his selfish little plan instantly evaporated. He nodded quickly. "Okay, okay, I’ll take you back."

Anubia lifted her into his arms. Before he left, his gaze swept over her, and he bent his head to bite her exposed wrist.

"After you’ve given birth, remember to find me."

...

「Sang Luo was back on the North Continent.」

Anubia must have been on some other mission this time; he had only sought her out after unexpectedly sensing her presence. He brought Sang Luo back to the same Stone Forest as before and then vanished.

Soon, Lan Cang found her.

He had completed his Heavenly Tribulation, and his power had stabilized in the True King Realm.

Lan Cang teleported in front of her and grabbed her hand, frantic with worry. "Luoluo?!"

"Don’t worry, I’m not hurt. I think I’m about to give birth."

"How could it be so sudden?"

’Her pregnancy had been delayed, so why is it happening early now?’

"Probably... too much nourishment."

Lan Cang didn’t dare ask any more questions. He rushed her back, and all the witch doctors in the city were urgently summoned to the City Lord Mansion.

This time, it was a premature birth.

The risks were immense!

Even the most experienced witch doctor was sweating, wiping his brow again and again. "City Lord, don’t worry! We will do everything to ensure the safety of your wife!"

"If... if something unexpected happens... save her. Save her first! Nothing can happen to her!"

...

Sang Luo was wheeled into the delivery room that had been prepared long ago in the mansion.

Waiting outside the door, Lan Cang’s heart was in his throat. He was so anxious he could barely breathe, wishing he could charge in and bear all the pain for her.

Inside the delivery room.

Sang Luo was all too familiar with the process.

She felt the contractions growing more and more frequent. When they reached that final, imminent peak—

She took a deep breath, gripped the sheets beneath her, and pushed with all her might. With a cry of pain, her belly suddenly felt empty, and she nearly passed out.

"Luoluo!"

Lan Cang, who had been standing guard right outside the door, heard her cry and immediately burst into the room.

When Sang Luo groggily came to, Lan Cang was holding her and gently washing her. The witch doctors and attendants had all been dismissed.

"How are you feeling?" he asked nervously.

Sang Luo moved her hands. She was a little tired, but otherwise fine.

Lan Cang buried his face in her neck, the fabric there slowly growing damp. "You really scared me just now. Those few hours I spent waiting outside felt like an eternity. It was the first time I ever felt time pass so slowly... I even... I was even preparing myself to lose you. I..."

"Shh! Don’t say such things. I’m perfectly fine!" Sang Luo reached up to cover his mouth, managing a weak smile.

Her condition was surprisingly good compared to her previous births. After casting a Healing Technique, her body felt as good as new.

’It seems the higher my cultivation realm, the stronger my body becomes,’ Sang Luo realized. ’The pain of childbirth lessens, and the recovery is faster.’

"Bring the babies over, let me see them."

"Okay, just a moment." Lan Cang wiped the tears from his face, his eyes still red. He carefully lifted the pups from their bassinet.

He had already cleaned them and wrapped them in layers of soft blankets.

Sang Luo looked at the three little pink bundles in her arms and couldn’t help but laugh. They looked a lot like newborn lion cubs—mostly hairless, wrinkled, and, if she was being honest, a little ugly.

’But considering their father’s handsome and valiant beast form, I know they won’t be ugly for long.’

’Mhm, give them a little time, and they’ll be three more beautiful pups!’

Only now did she have a moment to check her own condition. A massive surge of power had flooded her body, allowing her to break through a major bottleneck and stabilize at the True King Rank.

She was stunned.

She quickly checked the three pups’ innate talents.
