I Transmigrated as a Villainess to Raise Babies, and My Beast Husbands Are Fighting Madly Over Me!-Chapter 90: I’m Just a Weak Female

"You’re saying a female Wandering Beast made Gu Man mute?"

Feili, who had been groggy just a moment before, was now wide awake.

He glanced at the pitch-black night, resignedly pulled on his animal-hide clothes, and went to the stone house next door.

Gu Man sat on the stool, anxious and terrified.

When Feili entered, she stood up excitedly and grabbed his hand.

"Calm down, calm down. Let’s talk about this slowly."

Gu Man opened her mouth but couldn’t make a single sound.

Feili pointed to the male beastman who had just come to get him.

"Mengqi, you tell me."

The fox beastman named Mengqi explained that Gu Man had gone looking for Sunxiao.

Feili’s brow twitched as he listened, and he looked at Gu Man, speechless.

"Why on earth did you go and provoke him? You tried to use an Enchanting Fruit on him before and infuriated him. If I hadn’t used a yellow crystal to save you, he would have bitten your neck off. And you still haven’t learned your lesson?"

Feili felt helpless when it came to Gu Man.

She was the daughter of his own mate, sired by one of her other husbands. On top of that, she was one of the most fertile females in the tribe.

She had always been very popular in the tribe. Any male she set her sights on would eventually become one of her mates.

But she had been utterly rejected by Sunxiao and had held a grudge ever since.

"Clan Leader, that female Wandering Beast sprayed something on our mistress, and now she can’t speak."

Feili rubbed the bridge of his nose.

"Have you taken her to the witch doctor?"

Mengqi nodded.

"We have. The witch doctor said she couldn’t do anything either."

Feili frowned.

"I’ll go with you tomorrow morning to ask about it."

"Clan Leader, we don’t know if our mistress’s condition will worsen by morning."

Feili glared.

"She’s already mute. How much worse can it get? Go home for now. Come find me first thing tomorrow morning."

Gu Man didn’t want to leave, but her mates finally managed to persuade her after a great deal of effort.

Before the sun was up, Qiao Xixi heard a stir outside her door.

She opened her eyes to see Qiao Ang’s small face magnified before her.

’Good grief, his drool is about to drip onto my face.’

She moved the little cub’s head off her chest.

The courtyard gate had broken last night, so a worried Sunxiao had her sleep inside with the cubs while he stood guard in the yard.

"Father, I’m scared..."

Qiao Ang mumbled.

Qiao Xixi heard him clearly.

She pinched Qiao Ang’s small cheek.

’He’s even dreaming about that silly father of his.’

She carefully moved the three cubs sprawled across her body to the side, then quietly got out of bed.

"Xixi’s awake."

In the courtyard, Jin Ling was making breakfast.

After washing up, Qiao Xixi walked over to the stove and took a sniff.

"Jin Ling, your roasted meat smells amazing."

Jin Ling gave her a kiss on the forehead.

"It’s almost ready. I caught some fish-beasts in the river last night. I’ll cook them for you tonight."

"Okay."

Qiao Xixi picked up a piece of roasted meat and was about to eat it when she caught sight of Feili and Gu Man heading their way out of the corner of her eye.

She leisurely swallowed the meat, took a sip of water, and then waited calmly on the sofa.

Following behind Feili, Feiyan saw the contented-looking Qiao Xixi from a distance.

He quirked a brow over his narrow, fox-like eyes.

’To be able to eat and drink after causing such a huge mess... is she just clueless or actually a fool?’

As Feili and the others reached the courtyard entrance, Jin Ling warily put down the roasted meat and walked to the gate.

"I am Feili, Clan Leader of the Silver Tribe. I’ve come today because there’s something I need to ask Qiao Xixi."

Jin Ling looked at Qiao Xixi, only letting them into the courtyard after she nodded.

"What can I do for you, Clan Leader?"

Feili pointed at Gu Man, whose eyes looked ready to pop out of her head.

"Gu Man says you made her mute with poison. What’s this all about?"

Just then, Sunxiao walked in from the backyard with a cold expression.

"She came here looking for trouble first."

Gu Man opened her mouth and pointed at herself.

Qiao Xixi said with an innocent look, "Clan Leader, I’m just a delicate female who happens to be a Priest and also happens to know a tiny bit of witchcraft. If she wanted to bully me, I couldn’t just let her, could I?"

Gu Man nearly jumped to her feet.

’Who was bullying whom last night?!’

Feili also knew Gu Man was in the wrong.

"Then can you restore her voice?"

Qiao Xixi smiled and nodded.

"Whether or not she can recover doesn’t depend on me, but on herself."

These words left all the beastmen utterly confused.

"How can she recover on her own?" Feili asked.

"It’s simple. She just has to bow and apologize to me in front of everyone in the tribe."

"And that will make her go back to normal?"

"Of course not. She also has to bring me fresh, tender meat and fruit every day until the cold season arrives."

Mengqi protested, "We need to stockpile food before the cold season too. If we give you some every day, what will we eat during the cold season?"

Qiao Xixi shrugged nonchalantly.

"That’s not a problem I need to consider."

"You female Wandering Beast, you’re despicable! Clan Leader, our tribe has never taken in Wandering Beasts! They’re savage and greedy. Look, she harmed our mistress the moment she arrived! Please kick her out, Clan Leader!"

"That’s right, kick her out!"

Gu Man’s several mates started shouting angrily.

Some of the beastmen who had come over to see the commotion chimed in hostilely when they learned Qiao Xixi was a Wandering Beast.

The expressions on Jin Ling’s and Sunxiao’s faces turned colder than ever before.

Their crimson and gilded-gold eyes swept across the faces of the other beastmen.

It was as if they would leap forward and bite their necks off if they dared to say another insolent word.

Qiao Xixi, however, wasn’t angry at all.

"Fine, we’ll leave. The world is a big place. You think I can’t survive out there? Sunxiao, Jin Ling, pack your things. We’re leaving now."

With that, Qiao Xixi turned to go into the stone house.

Feiyan’s brows furrowed.

If Qiao Xixi left, his cub would leave with her.

"No, you can’t leave."

Feili, of course, had thought of this as well.

"Ahem. Qiao Xixi, when did I say I was kicking you out? I agree to the conditions you just mentioned. Now, let’s have Gu Man apologize to you."

Gu Man was dumbfounded. ’She had asked the Clan Leader to back her up, not to back up that Wandering Beast!’

Gu Man turned her head to the side.

’She would never apologize.’

Feili lowered his voice. "Gu Man, do you want to be mute forever?"

Gu Man gritted her teeth. ’What if this Wandering Beast leaves and I’m never cured?’

"Think it over carefully. If you’re not afraid, then just let them leave."

Seeing that Qiao Xixi didn’t even look back, Gu Man started to panic.

"AAAAHHHH..."

She tried to rush up to Qiao Xixi, screaming with her mouth wide open.

Sunxiao, quick as a flash, blocked her way.

Gu Man grew frantic, even trying to push aside Sunxiao, the very man she desired.

"AHH! AHHH!"

Qiao Xixi turned back, looking at her with a faint, unreadable smile.

"Ready to apologize?"

Gu Man nodded and bowed to Qiao Xixi.

"Ah? Ah? Ah?"

Qiao Xixi raised an eyebrow.

"And the tender meat?"

Gu Man nodded, then pointed to her own mouth.

"Want to talk?"

Gu Man nodded again.

Qiao Xixi chuckled and told Gu Man to open her mouth.

Gu Man was confused but did as she was told.

Qiao Xixi took a feather from a pheasant-beast and brushed it against Gu Man’s face.

All the beastmen watched this scene with curiosity.

Qiao Xixi circled around Gu Man, muttering something under her breath.

Just as Gu Man’s mouth was starting to feel numb, Qiao Xixi suddenly pulled something out and threw it into her mouth.
