She gave birth to a litter of furry babies, thus extending her life.

“But look at you and Long Ze. Apart from him being a bit more muscular than you, you two look exactly alike. It’s very difficult to achieve such a high degree of similarity unless you’re identical twins.”

Ruan Xiyue then showed off the knowledge that Duoduo had taught her.

Qin Ye frowned slightly and asked, "Are you saying that Aze and I are full brothers?"

Ruan Xiyue shrugged and said, "If you don't believe me, call a witch doctor and have them do the kind of bloodline test you mentioned, between the female beast mother and her child. Try it and you'll see if I'm right or not."

Qin Ye suddenly remembered what had just happened and said, "That's why you looked at me with suspicion when I asked this question. Did you think I already knew about this?"

Ruan Xiyue pursed her lips, her eyes darting around guiltily.

Qin Ye ruffled Ruan Xiyue's hair and said, "I knew about it from when you were talking about it earlier. But when did you find out?"

Ruan Xiyue said without batting an eye, "I hadn't thought of it that way before. When you brought up the second method today, I suddenly found it strange. That's why I asked you about the delivery."

"Then I felt very certain."

"But it's possible that identical twins could have babies born to the same mother, and the babies would look exactly alike, right?" Long Ze didn't believe it. His eyes were red-rimmed, making his already ruby-like eyes even more striking.

“There’s no point in us guessing. Why don’t we ask the witch doctor to try it and we’ll know the answer?” Ruan Xiyue said.

Long Ze shook his head and said, "Forget it. We've gotten through all these years like this..."

Ruan Xiyue held his hand tightly and said, "I know you're saddened that your father sensed you but ignored you. However, it's still necessary for us to figure this out. For example, the next time you see that female, she might not be your mother, but rather the thief who stole you from her side."

She even dares to point fingers at you, or at your partner, taking advantage of her claim to be your mother to boss me around. Should I tolerate her first, then slap her across the face, or should I just slap her across the face directly? There's a fundamental difference.

Long Ze looked at Ruan Xiyue, remained silent for a moment, pinched her cheek, and said, "Alright, then I'll go and invite the witch doctor, but as for needing the beast mother's blood... I'll have to trouble Qin Ye."

Long Ze stood up, but Ruan Xiyue held his hand tightly again and said, "If you really don't want to investigate..."

Long Ze rubbed Ruan Xiyue's head with his other hand and said, "To be honest, I don't care anymore. I'm past the age of expecting my mother to hold me in her arms and feed me meat porridge when I'm hungry, and I'm past the age of expecting my father to jump up and help me if I can't beat a wild beast, and teach me how to hunt more effectively."

Ruan Xiyue felt a pang of heartache upon hearing this, and her eyes reddened slightly. Long Ze pinched her cheek and said, "But I won't allow what you're talking about to happen. Because I know that kind of thing will definitely happen. If you want to choose the Holy Female, you need to go to Beast City, and you will definitely meet her. I won't allow anyone to bully or hurt you under any pretext."

Then, Long Ze lowered his head and whispered in Ruan Xiyue's ear, "After all, only I can bully my little female."

Ruan Xiyue released Long Ze's hand, slapped his hand with her other hand, and said, "Go and fetch the witch doctor!"

Qin Ye thought for a moment, then stood up at the same time, kissed Ruan Xiyue's hand, and said, "You stay home with the baby, I'll be back soon."

Ruan Xiyue nodded and climbed onto the animal skin mat to play poking the baby's little bottom.

Soon, the witch doctor came in carrying a wooden box. Her expression was complicated as she said, "If it's really as you suspect, then it's my fault. I didn't even realize that she had already laid an egg when I went to help deliver the baby."

[Yes! Duoduo! She's already had a baby. Can't you tell the difference between her appearance before and after giving birth?]

If Qin's mother's elder sister had transformed her into an animal form and tricked her into laying her first egg by claiming it was because she had "opened her genitals," Qin's mother, lacking experience, would have had a hard time realizing the deception. But when the witch doctor arrived and transformed her back into human form, the difference wouldn't be apparent. She would only have assumed it was due to "opening her genitals."

Wow! Will I never encounter something like that again?

[No, please rest assured, host! Duoduo will protect your cubs with her life if anyone lays a hand on them!]

Ruan Xiyue then pretended to be thoughtful and asked the witch doctor, "If she lays her first egg in the form of a dragon, and then someone she trusts tells her that she has only just begun to dilate, would she be able to tell that in this situation? Could the witch doctor tell in this case?"

The witch doctor's eyes widened, as if she suddenly remembered something. She clapped her hands involuntarily and said, "No wonder! I remember when I entered the Qin family's beast cave, I saw a large, writhing white snake, which startled me. It was Qin Ye's father who told me that his partner's older sister said that transforming into a beast before giving birth would make the delivery smoother."

"Then, not long after I was born, Qin Ye was born. At the time, I thought that's what a dragon was! Now, thinking about it from your perspective, nothing makes sense."

The witch doctor spoke as he prepared the medicine with surprising speed.

She had just finished preparing it when Qin Ye brought over the Qin family's Beast Mother.

Qin Ye said frankly, "I told my mother directly. Otherwise, I just couldn't think of a suitable reason to ask her for blood."

It wasn't that Qin Ye was too lazy to think of a reason, but rather that he felt his mother had the right to know.

If Xi Yue's cub was stolen, and someone tricked her and treated her cub badly... Qin Ye believed that Ruan Xi Yue could rush over overnight and dismantle the culprit.

Ruan Xiyue was also putting herself in others' shoes, thinking about what she would do if she encountered such a situation...

【Please don't let your emotions get too out of control, host!】 Duo Duo was startled. Why did he suddenly become so angry? Why is his emotion fluctuating so much?

Ruan Xiyue thought to herself: "[Duoduo, if someone steals my baby while I'm unconscious, you must remember who it was.]"

No, I won't remember that person. I'll electrocute him on the spot! Don't worry, host!

Ruan Xiyue then nodded slightly.

The Qin family's beast mother remained calm, and she curiously looked back and forth at Qin Ye and Long Ze, exclaiming, "You two are so alike! But you don't understand, my older sister and I are twins."

"You don't know, the probability of twins looking very alike is also..."

While she was incessantly comforting Longze, the medicine prepared by the witch doctor gradually began to show a color reaction.
