A vile, ugly, and fat female? A chaotic scene of six beastly husbands vying for her favor.

Chapter 10 The Cunning and Evil Serpent Husband

"Are you grilling meat? It smells so good."

Ling Yu looked at the female who walked into the cave and greeted her, feeling somewhat puzzled and unfamiliar. Had she seen this person before?
Then, the female pointed curiously to the fruit on the ground and asked:
"Did you use these fruits to make this? It tastes different from the ones I bake; it has a fruity aroma."

Only after listening to the other person's voice did Ling Yu belatedly realize that this female was the one she had met when she was collecting fruits and herbs last time.

At that time, the other party thought she didn't know how to gather, so they gave her some fruit to eat.

"It's you! Please come in."

Ling Yu could tell that the other party meant no harm, so she quickly invited them in.

This was the first person to show her kindness upon arriving in the Beast World, and even offered her food. She remembered this kindness.

The female glanced at Ling Yu with surprise, then followed her inside.

She didn't want to come in at first, but the aroma of meat wafting from the cave was so enticing that she decided to ask around.

"This is the meat I grilled. It's meat that's been treated with sour vine fruit and firethorn fruit before being skewered and grilled. Would you like to try some?"

Lingyu cut off a piece of the remaining meat and handed it to the other person.

Looking at Ling Yu's friendly demeanor, the female thought to herself, "This Yu doesn't seem as difficult to get along with as the rumors suggest."

"Thank you."

She took it and bit into her mouth. The fragrant and tender meat melted in her mouth, exuding a flavor that blended the aroma of meat and fruit. There was no fishy smell at all, only deliciousness.

The female couldn't help but squint her eyes; her taste buds were satisfied like never before!
She exclaimed, "Yu! This meat you grilled is absolutely delicious! It's the best meat I've ever tasted in my life!"

"How did you do that? Can you teach me?"

"Of course you can. Our original way of grilling meat didn't process the flavor, so it tasted rather bland. You can use my method next time."

Ling Yu smiled and said, "By the way, what's your name?"

"My name is Pear, and I live nearby. Were you going out just now?"

Li looked at Ling Yu and asked curiously.

Although the other person isn't very good-looking, is dark-skinned and chubby, and seems a bit unapproachable, they actually have a good temper and are an excellent cook.

Ling Yu nodded: "I want to send meat to my beastmen."

"You're going to send them meat? Really?!"

Pear stared wide-eyed in surprise.

Everyone in the tribe knew that Yu's six beast husbands all loathed her and refused to live with her. Their relationship was very bad, and they would even ignore her coldly when they saw her.

It is said that she has never fulfilled the duties of a female before, so this is the first time she has ever delivered meat.

Ling Yu could see the other person's shock and explained, "I used to live a muddled life and made many mistakes. I want to turn over a new leaf and make sure the beastmen stop resisting me."

As she spoke sincerely, Pear's impression of her changed even more.

Who says Yu is an unreasonable, arrogant, and domineering person? She is clearly very polite and has her own ideas.

Pear couldn't help but reassure them, "Don't worry, they'll definitely like your meat dishes, which are so delicious."

When it came to 'liking', Pear felt a little embarrassed and guilty.

Although Yu is a good cook, her appearance is... well, let's just say it's not the best. Even when she smiles in a friendly way, it's still a bit of an eyesore.

But she seems to look a bit better than before? Or is it just my imagination?

"Thank you. I'll teach you next time, okay? I have to go now."

Ling Yu spoke gently.

Li quickly stood up and nodded: "Okay, but your six beast husbands live quite far apart. My beast husband usually deals with Xuan, Lie and Li more often, so I can help you deliver them there."

Upon hearing this, Ling Yu was flattered and replied, "Is that alright?"

“Of course, you treat me to meat, and I’ll have my beast tamer run errands for you. It’s fair,” Pear smiled.

"Then trouble you."

Ling Yu handed the three portions of meat and the remaining large piece to Li, saying, "Take this back and let your beastmen try it. Thank you."

Pear accepted the meat without ceremony, and said with a smile, "This meat is so delicious, I'll take it back. I'll bring you some more meat another day. I'm leaving now. I promise your beastmen will get to taste your roasted meat."

Ling Yu nodded, and after sending the pear away, she took the remaining meat and prepared to visit the other three beastmen.

"System, I still have two beast husbands I haven't met yet: the mermaid beast husband Yue and the snake husband Liu. Which one is easier to get along with?"

[Host, both of these people have a dislike level of 100 for you. Relatively speaking, Liu is more gentle, while Yue dislikes you more.]

Gentle? Or is the level of disgust 100?

Ling Yu thought to herself, "They both hate me, so I'd better start with the gentle one; at least there won't be any danger."

But she never expected that she would soon be faced with shock and fear.

Ling Yu took the meat to the jungle where the snake-man willow lived. The original owner didn't have any memory of where he lived, only that he liked dark and damp forests.

"Liu, are you there? I've brought you some meat, which I grilled myself."

She arrived at the woods where Liu often lingered. There was no one there; the trees were tall and lush, and a damp mist hung in the air.

I called out several times, but there was no response.

Ling Yu looked around a few times, but there was no movement. She muttered in puzzlement, "Could it be that he's not home? Sigh, what a wasted trip."

Just as she was about to turn around and go back, the moment she looked up, a giant snake's gaping maw was closing in on her face!

"what--"

Ling Yu turned pale with fright, screamed, and her legs went weak, causing her to fall to the ground, her whole body trembling like a leaf.

A snake! A huge, long, and thick snake!

The scales, gleaming with a cold light, were magnified dozens of times before her eyes. The long, coiled body of the snake was perched on the tall tree canopy above Ling Yuzheng's head, its head half-bowed, staring at her with a chilling aura.

Ling Yu could barely breathe. If she weren't afraid of making a sound and disturbing the giant snake, she would have cried out in fear long ago, her heart pounding wildly.

"This is so fresh, you've brought me some meat."

A deep, resonant male voice emanated from the snake's body.

Ling Yu was so frightened that her hair stood on end and her mind went blank. It took her a long time to belatedly realize what had happened.

Snake, snake-husband Liu! Is this her beast-husband?!

Even realizing that these were orcs, Ling Yu's fear did not lessen in the slightest.

Having seen four beastmen who were all humanoid, she had almost forgotten that this was a beastman world. It was this giant snake in front of her that truly made her realize that!

These are real wild beasts! They can kill people!
"Can you...can you transform into human form?"

Ling Yu's voice trembled, and tears welled up in her eyes.

Liu stretched out her snake body and coiled closer to Ling Yu. As she got closer, her snake head flicked its tongue, probing Ling Yu's face.

"Huh? You... took a shower?"

His voice was deep and gentle, yet it carried a dangerous probing tone. The snake's body slowly coiled around Ling Yu's feet, its long body completely enveloping her.

Ling Yu was so frightened that she trembled and her face turned pale.

His interest only grew stronger.

"You even took a bath and cleaned yourself up just to seduce me, Yu, is that all you want?"

Ling Yu's voice was trembling with tears: "No, you've misunderstood, I didn't..."

Even though its snake body didn't actually touch her, she could already feel the pain of being trapped and suffocated.

"Why are you crying? If you don't want it, then forget it. You brought me meat, so before you leave, I'll give you a gift, okay? Close your eyes."

Liu said jokingly, staring intently at her fearful expression, but getting closer and closer.

Ling Yu trembled, tears streaming down her face. She tried to close her eyes, unable to imagine how painful it would be to be swallowed whole by this snake.

I dared not speak, dared not breathe, dared not resist, and dared not cry.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew by, and Liu's enigmatic voice gradually faded into the distance:
"Open your eyes and look at the gift."
