After being bound to the procreation system, the little female seduces everyone in the beast world.
Chapter 63 Would you be willing to take my place and become the elder of the tribe?
But just as she closed her eyes, there was a knock on the door.
"Who is it again..."
Yan Shu rubbed her forehead, feeling a headache coming on, and couldn't help but complain in her heart.
Pregnancy and childbirth are not this exhausting!
Ah Hou has already gone to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, the tribal elder walked in, his expression as serious and calm as ever: "Yan Shu, I have some things I need to talk to you about."
When Yan Shu saw the elder, she was still wondering whether she should take the opportunity to tell him about the group of men who had surrounded her house earlier, but she didn't expect the elder to speak up before her.
"I want to ask you something."
"what's up?"
Yan Shu tensed up instantly when she saw the elder's serious expression. She was about to get out of bed when the elder raised his hand to stop her.
"Don't move, just sit."
The elders tried to stop them.
Yan Shu was stunned and hadn't reacted yet when A Xu quickly grabbed a pillow from the side, skillfully tucked it behind her waist, and helped her sit up.
She had just settled down when the elder paused for a moment, staring intently at her, before slowly speaking: "I ask you, are you willing to take my place and become the elder of the tribe?"
"???" Yan Shu's mind went blank for a moment.
"!!!" After a moment, she came to her senses, her face filled with shock.
"W-what?"
Her voice trembled slightly, she couldn't believe her ears, "Elder, what... what did you just say?"
The elder remained calm, nodded, and repeated in a measured tone, "I ask you, are you willing to take my place and become the elder of the tribe?"
Yan Shu: "..."
She felt like her head was about to explode, and quickly waved her hands, "No, no, no, Elder, I can't, how can I be an elder!"
The elder raised an eyebrow, his gaze resolute, his tone calm yet firm: "Why not? Although you are physically weak, you were able to give birth to two children, both of whom were female."
This situation is unprecedented, which proves that your position in the tribe is extremely secure. With your abilities, you are fully capable of serving as an elder.
"But...but I really can't!" Yan Shu's scalp tingled, and her tone was filled with an urgent refusal. "I just want to live my life peacefully. Elder, please choose someone else! Someone like me is really not capable of handling such important matters for an elder!"
She was inwardly groaning.
The problems with the men outside our house haven't been solved yet, and now they're being pushed into such a high position. It's like one misfortune after another!
The elder did not retract his proposal because of her refusal; he remained standing there, his expression calm and resolute.
“Yan Shu, you may not understand, but the elder of a tribe is more than just a position.”
Her gaze fell heavily on Yan Shu, with an undeniable seriousness. "You have given birth to two female children, and the males in the tribe have come to see you as their hope. This is not only about your life, but also about the future of the entire tribe."
“But I don’t want to be the hope!” Yan Shu blurted out, her tone tinged with helplessness. “I’m just an ordinary person, I only have two daughters. This kind of great responsibility is really not suitable for me.”
The elder did not immediately refute her, but instead gave her a meaningful look: "An ordinary person? Do you think an ordinary person can give birth to two females?"
Yan Shu was speechless, and could only open her mouth, wanting to refute but not knowing where to start.
She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down: "Elder, I really feel that my personality and abilities are completely unsuitable for being an elder. It was purely coincidental that I had these two children. You should look around and see if there are any other more suitable people."
The elder's gaze lingered on her face for a moment before he sighed softly, "You can refuse now, but you must understand that the tribe's expectations of you will not disappear because of your refusal. Whether you like it or not, you are already the greatest female in the tribe. There are many things that cannot be refused."
Yan Shu fell silent, knowing that the elder was not exaggerating.
Those males who had just gathered at my doorstep, and their burning gazes…
She rubbed her temples, feeling like her head was about to explode: "Elder, can you give me a little more time? This is all too sudden, I... I really need time to think about it."
The elder nodded, his expression softening somewhat: "Alright, I won't force you. But I hope you understand that some responsibilities are unavoidable."
After saying this, the elder got up and left.
Yan Shu watched the elder's departing figure, then collapsed onto the bed and let out a long sigh.
Ah Xu stood to the side, his fox tail dangling on the ground, his expression complex.
He already felt that his position in Yan Shu's heart was somewhat precarious, and now that he heard that she might become a tribal elder, his brows furrowed even more.
If Shushu really becomes an elder, her status and position will far exceed what she has now, and there will be even more males surrounding her.
At that time, his situation will undoubtedly become even more difficult.
Ah Hou's face was practically overflowing with joy. As he pondered the identity of "the male elder," he began to imagine the future: "This is truly a wonderful thing! With Shu Shu becoming an elder, our family's status will rise accordingly. Who will dare to criticize us then?"
As he listened to his "naive" remarks, Ah Xu frowned even more, and flung his fox tail heavily on the ground in dissatisfaction, raising a cloud of dust.
He snorted coldly, mercilessly pouring cold water on her ambition: "You're dreaming, but have you considered how many more suitors will come to the house after Shushu becomes an elder? Will she have time to pay attention to you then?"
Ah Hou's smile froze on his face, as if he had just been doused with a bucket of cold water.
He blinked, then looked hesitantly at Ah Xu: "People wooing you? Could there be more than now?"
"Heh." Ah Xu sneered, his fox-like eyes narrowing slightly, his tone carrying a deliberate sarcasm. "What do you think? What is the position of elder? It's the core of the entire tribe, a position of both power and status. Those males have been eyeing Shu Shu for a long time. If she really becomes an elder, will they still be able to behave themselves?"
Ah Hou's expression froze completely, all his previous excitement vanished.
He quickly turned to Yan Shu: "Shu Shu, you mustn't agree! Being an elder is indeed prestigious, but don't you prefer peace and quiet? Being an elder won't bring peace and quiet."
"Our family's position is already secure enough; there's no need for this added trouble."
Yan Shu was both amused and exasperated by his silly appearance: "Can you guys stop treating me like a piece of meat that can be snatched away at any time? I don't want to be that kind of person, and I don't have the energy for it."
She said that, but a hint of wavering flashed through her mind.
It's impossible to say I wasn't tempted at all.
Her task is to bear children, and the rarer and more special the child, the greater the reward.
She had already tasted the benefits of this twin mission—her body had recovered considerably, and she had also received additional bloodline adaptation rewards from the system.
If she becomes a tribal elder and comes into contact with more powerful bloodlines, then... the rewards will be even greater, right?
