Future Beast World: Becoming A Pampered Beauty-Chapter 290 - 229: The Little Male Slave is So Handsome?

Chapter 290: Chapter 229: The Little Male Slave is So Handsome?

Fei Yuan rejected the idea outright. "I’ll investigate Resentful Lake. You just focus on your pregnancy."

Sang Luo pinched his handsome, sexy jaw with her soft, pale fingers and gave him a quick kiss on the lips. Grinning, she said, "Am I that stupid? Of course I have a good idea that will lure the snake from its hole without putting myself in danger!"

"A Clone?" Fei Yuan had almost forgotten she possessed such an ability.

Sang Luo nodded, then asked, "Do you have any leads on these two Demon Envoys?"

The two Demon Envoys, one male and one female.

"I’ve seen the male Demon Envoy before. He’s the younger maternal half-brother of the Great Argus Clan’s leader before last. His talent was exceptionally high, but he was defeated in the fight for succession. Later, he was exiled from the clan over some incident and was never heard from again. Everyone assumed he was dead. To think he’s not only alive, but has fallen into demonhood and become the First Demon Envoy."

"And this female Demon Envoy? Have you seen her, Your Majesty?"

"She must rarely appear in public. I’ve truly never seen her."

"She’s a Poison Yan." A clear, pleasant voice came from outside the door. Sang Luo looked up, her eyes crinkling into a smile. "Ah Ye! What are you doing here now?"

Si Ye’s thin lips curved into a faint smile. He sat down cross-legged on her other side, leaning in to kiss her cheek. "I missed you, so I came. Do I need an appointment to be affectionate with my own partner?"

Fei Yuan shot him a sidelong glance. "I am still here, you know. The one Luoluo is carrying is *my* cub. If there’s any affection to be had, it’s with me."

"She’s been pregnant with this one for so long and still hasn’t given birth! And you have the nerve to say that!" Si Ye seethed.

Fei Yuan narrowed his phoenix eyes, a profound smile gracing his lips.

"If you’d like to ’serve’ Luo’er with me tonight, this uncle wouldn’t mind."

Sang Luo’s brain stuttered for a moment. When she processed what he’d said, she reached out and viciously pinched his waist. ’So debauched!’

Si Ye’s handsome face flushed crimson. He snatched Sang Luo from Fei Yuan’s arms into his own and scolded in a low voice, "Luoluo’s body can’t handle that! This old geezer has no consideration for you at all. In a few days, Luoluo is coming to stay with me!"

’He hadn’t been close to her in so long. He wanted her desperately, and enduring it every night was agonizing.’

Sang Luo knew she had been neglecting Si Ye lately. MWAH! She planted a kiss on his cheek and leaned against his chest. "I’ll move back to the Marquis Mansion in a few days."

’Si Ye might seem flamboyant and willful, but he was actually very considerate. During this past year that she’d been focusing on the Phoenix cub, he had only returned a handful of times. He knew that if he saw her, he wouldn’t be able to control himself.’

Si Ye’s peach blossom eyes shone with a fiery light. He took out a sweet berry and fed it to her. "This is a Red Thorn Fruit I found while training in the Eastern Region a few days ago. It tastes pretty good—nine parts sweet and one part sour. I’m sure you’ll like it."

"Mmm, delicious!" She ate several in a row; they were incredibly refreshing.

"I’ve already transplanted some seedlings at the Marquis Mansion. I’ll plant a lot more for you."

Absence truly does make the heart grow fonder.

Fei Yuan’s voice was deep and low. "We were discussing business. Finish what you were saying."

Si Ye knew he was asking about the Poison Yan, so he laid out everything he knew. "The poison affecting you was most likely her doing."

"In her early years, she acquired a Calamity Poison Pearl. This pearl is a fount of poison birthed by the world itself, and it contains the treacherous power of the Death Element’s laws. However, the pearl’s power is far too tyrannical for an ordinary physical body to withstand. That’s why her own body is in a constant state of decay, forcing her to find a new one periodically."

"Her emergence this time is likely for the purpose of finding a new body."

Fei Yuan asked, "Where did you get this information?"

Si Ye took out a letter. "It was in here. It also describes how to counteract the Poison Pearl."

Fei Yuan looked at the letter in his hand. "Who gave it to you?"

"I don’t know. I found it on a table in my room at the Marquis Mansion a short while ago, right after Luoluo moved into the Phoenix Palace. There was no sender’s name on the envelope."

Sang Luo said, "Let me see."

Si Ye handed her the envelope.

Sang Luo opened the letter, and her heart skipped a beat. It was her master’s handwriting; she was all too familiar with it.

The calligraphy reflected the man.

The strokes were elegant, like flowing clouds.

’It was Caesar... or rather, she should call him Quan Jin now.’

"We can trust what the letter says," she said slowly.

’He wouldn’t harm her.’

’His Soul Mark was on her. If she died, it would do him no good.’

’But why didn’t he come in person? Why go through all the trouble of sending a letter to the Marquis Mansion?’

’Speaking of which, it had been a long time since she’d seen Quan Jin and Little Qi.’

’She thought he would come looking for her after presumptuously leaving his Soul Mark last time, but he never did. It was as if he’d forgotten she existed. So why leave the Soul Mark on her at all?’

Sang Luo couldn’t fathom the man’s intentions.

The priority now was to deal with the matter at hand.

Right then and there, Sang Luo split off a Clone that was identical to her real body.

Not only was Si Ye stunned, but even Fei Yuan was visibly startled.

This Talent Ability was truly unique.

Without the ability to sense the Soul Mark, it was impossible to tell which was the original and which was the Clone.

"The Clone and I share the same senses and consciousness. When I’m not around, you can just treat her as if she were me."

"Shared senses... Heh." Fei Yuan smiled suggestively. "Little Luoruo, if you ever have trouble appeasing your other Beast Husbands, you could always just make a few more Clones—one for each of them. I wonder what it would feel like if you were... intimate... with all of them at the same time."

Sang Luo’s face flushed red. ’Sh-she had never considered using it that way!’

"Alright, then. I’ll leave a Clone for you from now on. However, with my current power level, a Clone can only exist for seven days at most."

"...I was suggesting you give *them* Clones, not me. I want the real you."

Si Ye scoffed, "You wish, old geezer! Keep dreaming!"

Sang Luo watched the uncle and nephew on the verge of drawing weapons over who got her real body and shook her head. ’The plan hasn’t even started, and it’s already a mess.’

The next morning, Fei Yuan and Si Ye left with the Clone.

Sang Luo remained in the palace to rest.

The servants in the hall went about their duties peacefully.

Sang Luo’s gaze was suddenly drawn to a slender young man.

’She hadn’t seen this servant before. Is he new?’

She was so engrossed in watching him that she didn’t notice the young man approaching with a pot of hot tea.

"Esteemed noble female." The young man bowed. "We meet again."

Sang Luo blinked. The young man had black hair and brown eyes. His frame appeared slight, but a closer look revealed he wasn’t frail at all. The muscles in his arms were firm and powerful. ’Beastmen from the lower classes are always good workers.’

"Are you the young male slave I bought on the side of the road?" she asked, a little uncertain.

The young man smiled and nodded.

Sang Luo was astonished. ’Back then, he was covered in injuries from a beating on the road, dressed in rags, and absolutely filthy. I never would have thought he’d be so handsome underneath all that grime.’

’He had a very unique and attractive air about him.’

It added a certain charm to his delicate features.

He said, "I don’t have any special skills; I’m just a meticulous worker. I managed to pass the palace’s selection test."

"Working in the palace is a good position; the salary is generous," Sang Luo said with a smile. "What a coincidence that you were assigned to my service. It seems we’re fated to meet."

"I came here specifically to serve in the noble female’s quarters."

Sang Luo paused, slightly taken aback.

He said, "Thank you for helping me, Noble Female. You spent your own money to buy me, so it is only right that I serve you for the rest of my life."

Sang Luo quickly waved her hands in dismissal. "No, no, that’s not necessary. I just felt sorry for you back then. Those few Crystal Stones were nothing to me. If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would’ve forgotten the whole thing."

He lowered his head, saying nothing.

Sang Luo asked him, "What’s your name?"

He thought for a moment before replying, "You can call me Xiao’er."
