Raising Beast Husbands with My Space — The Villainess Becomes a Beloved Favorite-Chapter 344: Face Changing Pearl

The Clan Leader and the two Clan Elders turned pale with anger.

They hated nothing more than betrayal from within.

"It seems that those men in black back then were indeed Beastmen from the Bright Hall, just as we had suspected."

"Those Beastmen trained by the Bright Hall are nothing but Evil Beasts, they are no good."

Long ago, a Beastman from within the clan colluded with outsiders to open the outer city gate, resulting in many Beastmen of the Xuanyuan Clan being killed.

They even lost a very powerful ancestor who sacrificed to protect the Xuanyuan Clan from being annihilated.

"If it weren’t for you, Young Master, we wouldn’t have realized he was such a kind of person."

Leng Feng, upon hearing this, angrily retorted, "It’s you who deserve to die! Our Bright Hall, guided by the Light God, must eliminate forces like yours. Only by eliminating you can we restore brightness to the continent and wipe out all darkness."

"By then, neither Mutated Beasts nor Dark Beastmen will exist, and ordinary Beastmen and wandering Beastmen won’t suffer and be homeless..."

"Without Mutated Beasts and Dark Beastmen, the forest’s food and water sources won’t be polluted, and we can hunt freely like in ancient times..."

Leng Feng shouted loudly, a frenzy glint in his eyes.

At this moment, he spoke directly of what was in his heart.

The Clan Leader and the two Clan Elders, upon hearing these words, realized the severity of the situation.

"It seems Bright Hall is indeed using such rhetoric to incite some Beastmen to work for them."

"Their minds are all broken."

Once this kind of thinking is formed in the mind, it’s hard to change.

And they have no concept of right or wrong, only thinking that what the Bright Hall does is correct.

Yun Qinglan’s eyes flashed with a dangerous gleam, "If that’s how Bright Hall controls its followers, it indeed is terrifying."

They control them with such ideology, and these Beastmen admire the Bright Hall from their very core. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

No wonder the Bright Hall is pervasive.

Yun Qinglan continued to ask, "Is the Thirteen Elders one of yours?"

"Yes."

"Is Steward Shi also one of yours?"

"Yes."

The Second Elder’s expression changed, "Impossible, Shi Dong is old seven’s grandson, and old seven died to protect the clan, how could Shi Dong be someone from the Bright Hall, there must be some misunderstanding."

The Clan Leader and the Great Elder also couldn’t believe it, but they remained calm.

If Qinglan hadn’t caught Leng Feng, they wouldn’t have believed Leng Feng was a spy.

And as for the Thirteen Elders, he was a transparent person, a temporary elder appointed to handle some clan affairs.

Back then, many clan members had died or been injured, and they dared not casually choose people, but had to ensure the selected person was absolutely loyal to the Xuanyuan Clan and wouldn’t betray them.

It seems now, they too could be wrong.

Yun Qinglan asked Leng Feng, "What’s the matter with Shi Dong?"

Leng Feng answered automatically, "Shi Dong died long ago, the current Shi Dong is a Sea Crab Beastman from the Sea Clan. He accidentally stole the Face Changing Pearl from the Sea Clan, which allows changing appearance and form, so you couldn’t possibly have realized he had been replaced."

The Great Elder’s brow furrowed tightly, "I accidentally heard about this; the Sea Clan indeed has the Face Changing Pearl, but only the Merfolk Royal Family possesses such pearls, and only when a Merfolk cries blood tears with deep emotion can such pearls form. These pearls are extremely rare and precious, swallowing one allows a Sea Clan Beastman to change their form and appearance."

"The fact that he managed to get a Face Changing Pearl, no wonder!"

Using disguises or other methods, or even using a Magic Artifact, would have been of no use, as with their ability, they would have seen through right away.

Shi Dong was in charge of the inner city’s defenses.

He was only recently promoted.

If Shi Dong was fake, one can only imagine the problems that would arise.

The Clan Leader and the two Clan Elders realized this and were filled with fear.

"Who else is from your side?"

Leng Feng spilled everything he knew.

Actually, before this, Leng Feng didn’t know how many people the Xuanyuan Clan had inserted.

But with the upcoming once-in-a-century sacrificial ceremony of the Xuanyuan Clan, where they had to complete an important task, these people needed to be contacted to execute the plan together, so they realized how many people they had and who they all were.

The plan had already been laid out.

Just waiting for the sacrificial ceremony a few days later to be executed.

The Clan Leader and the two Clan Elders turned completely pale.

If not for Qinglan, they would have been kept in the dark to the bone.

If something went wrong with the once-in-a-century sacrificial ceremony, how could they face their ancestors?

"No wonder the Young Master was summoned back by the divine light of Xuanyuan Mountain, he is indeed the hope for the revitalization of our clan."

They dared not imagine, if Yun Qinglan hadn’t discovered the problem with Leng Feng, they wouldn’t have known so many people had been inserted into the clan by outsiders.

People they trusted one by one.

The Clan Leader and the two Clan Elders quickly decided to arrange for Beastmen to secretly capture these people for interrogation overnight.

With the elixir concocted by Su Muyao, upon consuming the elixir, they confessed everything.

Although only a few days remained before the sacrificial ceremony, there was still time to disrupt their planned setup.

The entire Xuanyuan Clan began to tighten security.

Of course, no one knew the specifics of what had happened.

...

Su Muyao, while Yun Qinglan was busy, found herself free and went to the Book Collection Pavilion to read.

After gathering more information, she went to the other courtyard where Bi Zhixu resided.

Upon her arrival, Bi Zhixu was practicing controlling his Water Ability in the courtyard.

"Miss Su, you’re back."

Su Muyao said, "Mr. Bi’s health is much better now."

Bi Zhixu, with a gentle expression, replied, "Thanks to Miss Su’s kindness, my heart disease is finally cured."

"Miss Su is my benefactor, and with the Xuanyuan Clan on high alert preparing for the sacrificial ceremony, Miss Su should be careful when going out on errands."

Su Muyao felt Bi Zhixu was a smart person, and amid the turbulent undercurrents within the Xuanyuan Clan, he must’ve noticed.

"Thank you, Mr. Bi, for the reminder, I will be careful."

"I just saw Mr. Bi trying to control the water in this jar, are you a Superpower User with Water Ability?"

Bi Zhixu candidly replied, "I am a Pure-blooded Beastman of the Bishui Tribe, naturally born with Water Ability; only before, I had heart disease and couldn’t use it, but now I can."

Su Muyao remarked, "If that’s the case, I’m even more curious about the Bishui Tribe."

"I heard that for over two decades in the south, the rivers have been flooding, if Mr. Bi’s Water Ability is strong, you should be able to control the rivers, right?"

Bi Zhixu sighed, "It’s not that simple."

"Unless I possess Divinity Transformation level strength, there’s no way to suppress it."

Su Muyao said, "I heard that only by offering a female sacrifice from the Bishui Tribe can the river truly be subdued."

"Mr. Bi, you previously advised me not to go to the Bishui Tribe; are you concerned about something?"

"Or is it because of the sacrifice tradition?"

"Mr. Bi, you know I’m right, don’t you?"

Ever since seeing some documented information about the Bishui Tribe, Su Muyao didn’t want to wait.

As the Young Master of the Bishui Tribe, Bi Zhixu was the best person to ask for clear answers.

Therefore, she asked these questions directly.

Moreover, she didn’t sense any malice from him; had he borne malice, he would’ve urged her to go to the Bishui Tribe long ago.

Bi Zhixu’s expression changed a few times before finally sighing in resignation, "I never expected Miss Su to know about the sacrifices."

"Miss Su actually resembles my aunt."

"Sadly, we couldn’t protect my aunt."

The feeling of powerlessness made Bi Zhixu feel a deep pang in his heart.
