Traveling through the world of beasts, making a living

The fighting finally stopped at daybreak, leaving corpses strewn about the ground, broken limbs and limbs strewn about. The tunnel from the tribal gate to the valley entrance was stained a dark red.

Dragon Shadow came over with Ashes, followed by orcs supporting each other. Although no orcs died in the tribe this time, there were many injured. Mona quickly ordered

"Brother Ying, take him to the altar, cut his tendons, and try him later!"

"Bixi and Qingli, count the orcs from each tribe and see if there are any casualties. Have the witch doctor treat them immediately!"

"Wushuang and Chiyan, lead the uninjured tribesmen to clean up the battlefield. The smell of blood is too strong and will attract ferocious beasts. Quickly dispose of these corpses, dig a large pit, and set it on fire. Be careful not to burn the forest!"

"Heisha, Huida, Ada, go to the top of the mountain to inform the elders and lead the tribe down the mountain to prepare food and clean up the tribe."

Everyone was used to Mona's orders, so they raised their hands, clasped their fists, saluted, and immediately went about their business.

Mona watched everyone leave. Standing on the city wall, gazing into the distance, a sense of emptiness welled up within her. This was the savagery of the jungle. If there were no deadly poison today, none of the Ten Thousand Beasts Tribe would survive. The cruelty of war, the cheapness of human life—ah! Since ancient times, prosperous times have been built on the withered bones of our ancestors.

"Wu, the patriarch invites you to the altar." Jia ran over and respectfully invited people.

"Let's go and see together."

When the two walked up to the altar, they saw Ashes tied to the totem pole, his wrists and ankles bleeding, and Longying holding a dagger and turning it upside down in his hand.

"Witch, I really underestimated you. You actually have such a powerful poison." Ashes glared at Mona. Suddenly, he thought of something. "Hahaha! Witch! No, it should be the goddess. The priest was right. There really is a goddess. Hahaha!"

"You're about to die, yet you're still laughing. Tell me, what conspiracy do you have on the Western Continent? How many orcs have you infiltrated into the Eastern Continent?"

"Bah! The winner is the king, the loser is the bandit. You can kill me or chop me up as you please. Don't even think about getting anything out of me."

"Even if you don't tell me, I know that the sea level is rising, the Western Continent is sinking, and the mermaids are coming ashore. You came to the Eastern Continent to find a place to live in order to survive. Then you heard the priest predict that the goddess would appear to save the Beast World. You wanted to take it for yourself and unify the Beast World! Right?"

"You already know this, so why are you asking me?"

"I'm asking you to spare your life. After all, you have a formidable mind and command of military power. As long as you sincerely submit to the tribe and swear a solemn oath to the Beast God, I will release you!"

"Don't dream. I won't betray the Western Continent or my tribe. In our Western Continent, there are thousands of wise men like me. I can't even be ranked. I can die for the tribe, so I can be considered a hero!"

"You are so stubborn that you deserve to die." Longying pointed the dagger at Huijin's neck.

"Come on! I'm not afraid of death. I anticipated my own fate before I came here. It doesn't matter. I'm not at a disadvantage. I have the Goddess by my side. Let's meet the Beast God together. Hahaha..."

"What do you mean? Tell me clearly, quickly!" Longying grabbed Huijin's neck and cut a bloody mark with a knife.

"Hahaha, you will know, Lady Goddess, I'll wait for you!" After saying that, blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, his head tilted, and he died.

Long Ying was still asking questions hysterically. Mona walked over and grabbed the crazy Long Ying.

"Brother Ying, calm down, look at me, I'm fine!"

Long Ying's hands trembled as he dropped the dagger and hugged Mona tightly. "Little one, tell me, is there something that happened that concerns your life? Please, tell me. Don't make me panic and make random guesses!"

"Okay, okay, after we clean up the tribe, I'll tell everyone at night."

Long Ying was in a state of panic the whole day, and the beast husbands also noticed something was wrong. "Brother, is there something wrong with Na?" Bixi asked, and the beast husbands pricked up their ears and looked at him.

"The little one will only speak at night."

Every second felt like an eternity for them, their bodies aching with thorns. Finally, when night fell, Hongshang and Heisha left the meal so as not to interrupt the family's meal. Afterward, Mona gathered everyone together and spoke gravely.

"Brother Ying, do you remember the dream I had during those days when I was unconscious?" Long Ying nodded. "Yes, you were unconscious the whole time, and I thought you were pregnant with my child and needed the Dragon Ball and the Illusion Grass."

Mona sighed and continued, "The days I was comatose were a journey back to my past life to receive my inheritance. I am actually a descendant of the Beast God, carrying divine veins and possessing mysterious powers. Brother Ying and I studied under the Beast God. The priests of the Western Continent calculated that I could save the Beast World, so they sent Ashes to snatch me away. If I am taken away by them, the Beast World will face a great disaster."

The room suddenly became quiet, and all the animals looked at Mona in shock.

"But don't worry, everyone. I've asked the system. The exchanged poison will affect the balance of the beast world. I have to pay a certain price, but my life will not be in danger. This also means that I may face more dangers. I hope everyone can join me in resisting foreign enemies. Facing unknown risks," Mona said with a firm look.

Long Ying was the first to stand up and expressed his willingness to protect Mona to the death.

Several other beastmen also expressed their willingness to fight alongside Mona. Chi Yan suddenly said, "Little female, when will you be my partner?"

As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderclap that blasted several orcs, leaving them burnt on the outside and tender on the inside. Qingli stood up quickly and said, "You idiot, you're still thinking about getting a couple at this time. Are you crazy?"

"Your brain is broken, and your whole family is stupid!" Chi Yan cursed angrily.

"Chi Yan, don't make trouble at this time. You suddenly proposed to get married at this time. Is there something we don't know what to think?" Long Ying asked anxiously.

"Yes, we Phoenix Clan can foresee some things. The little female used a weapon that doesn't exist in the Beast World. The Beast God will punish her. The most likely punishment right now is premature birth. The little female has two cubs in her belly, one male and one female. The male cub is nourished by the Dragon Pearl, absorbing the energy of you fathers to grow. The female cub can't withstand the nourishment of the Dragon Pearl and needs the heart blood of the Phoenix Clan orcs to nourish her in order to grow. What you usually feel is the male cub moving, while the female cub is dormant. If it is born prematurely, the female cub will die at birth."

"Two? Are you sure?" Mona suddenly became anxious because Chi Yan was right, there was only one cub interacting.

Several beastmen lost their composure, and Long Ying was trembling all over. Two dragon cubs, one male and one female. Oh my god, there are female dragon cubs. The dragon clan had no female cubs for thousands of years. How lucky he was. He stared at Mona's belly with a sharp gaze, as if he wanted to see through the cubs inside.

"Tie, tie, tie it now!" Several beastmen, some holding bowls and some holding knives, grabbed Chi Yan's hands and started to cut. Chi Yan was anxious and retreated in panic.

Their eyes suddenly blazed with anger. "Why are you hiding? You were the one who suggested forming a couple."

"Little female, please say something and let them do whatever they want."

Mona shifted her gaze from her belly to the group of beastmen. "Tell me, what do you want? To save the female cub."

"Little female, you misunderstood. We became partners willingly, not based on their whims."

Suddenly, the beast husbands were dumbfounded. That's right, they were forcing Chi Yan to form a mate, and they hadn't even asked Mona's opinion. Awkward! "Okay, by the Beast God, I'm willing to be Chi Yan's mate!" As soon as he finished speaking, the dagger slashed across his fingertips, and blood dripped into the ceramic bowl.

Chi Yan smiled, "Beast God, I am willing to be Mona's partner, never leaving her, living and dying together!"

With a "chi" sound, the dagger pierced Chi Yan's chest. The beasts were shocked. "Just the blood from your fingertips is enough for you," he said. "This kid is really ruthless." Chi Yan calmly took the bowl and collected the blood. When it was almost half full, he pulled out the knife and threw the dagger on the table with a clang. He then handed the bowl to Mona, indicating that she should drink first.

Mona took a sip without hesitation and passed it to Chi Yan, who quickly drank it as well. Chi Yan then passed it back to Mona, letting her finish it. The couple's ceremony was a success.

The beastmen tactfully returned to their rooms, leaving Mona and Chi Yan staring at each other. Chi Yan took out a phoenix feather and placed it on Mona's head. He gently stroked her soft hair. With a smile in his eyes, he said affectionately, "Baby, you are finally my partner."

He put his arm around Mona's waist and pulled her close to him, his lips unconsciously touching hers. Chi Yan was afraid of hurting the cub, and also wanted to leave a good impression on Mona. The night was long, and Chi Yan was extremely gentle, taking care of Mona's feelings in every aspect, making Mona feel like she was wandering in the clouds.

The daybreak was bright, but the two people who were sleeping in each other's arms showed no signs of waking up. The beast husband had already prepared breakfast and hot water, but he still didn't come out after waiting for a long time. Qingli was anxious. "I hope something happened to Na. I knew that silly bird was a fool. No, I have to go in and take a look."

Qingli rushed in with a domineering look, and when she saw the two people hugging each other on the bed, she felt a surge of anger in her heart.

"Silly bird, why don't you get up? Na is hungry!" The other three beasts also walked to the bed.

"Shh! Stop making noise! Keep your voice down. She's sleeping in because she's tired from last night, and another reason is that the female cub is waking up to absorb the heart blood."

After hearing Chi Yan's answer, everyone's breathing slowed down. They all looked at Mona. They saw a red mark on her forehead that looked like a flame. She looked extremely charming, her face flushed, and her breathing was even. Chi Yan gestured to the outside to speak.

When the beasts walked outside, Chi Yan slowly explained, "The mark on the forehead is my mate mark. Darling, drink my heart's blood. The female cub needs nourishment and should sleep all day. From now on, I will give her water every other day and try to raise her well before the punishment."

"Okay, you'll take care of the little one for the time being. The female cub has grown up smoothly, and you've made an invaluable contribution. I can't thank you enough! We have a long way to go!"

"We're a family, why should we be polite? As long as the cubs and babies are good, I'm their father. Besides, I'm their father." Long Ying patted Chi Yan's shoulder, Bi Xi gave him a hug, and Wu Shuang clenched his fist and connected it with his, showing an unspoken understanding between the men.

"Don't worry about bleeding from the head every day, but don't kill yourself. Here, silly bird, eat something first. I'll go to the witch doctor to ask for some ginseng and make some soup for you to nourish you!" Qingli's caring words had a bit of a strange taste.
