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

Ruan Xiyue watched Qin Huan quietly, a smile playing on her lips, exuding a calm and confident air.

She has ways of speaking that can kill, and she is not afraid of physical confrontation.

Qin Huan suddenly grabbed his head, knelt on the ground, and began to throw a tantrum.

Ruan Xiyue chuckled and directly questioned loudly, "So, as long as you give false testimony and act crazy, you can avoid punishment? If that's the case, then I'm going to start slandering you!"

The square fell silent for a moment, then the orcs' chatter became as loud as boiling water being poured into a frying pan.

Ruan Xiyue looked at the elderly holy woman sitting opposite her with such openness and confidence.

The other party frowned slightly for a moment, then regained his expressionless demeanor: "Female Ruan Xiyue, there's no need to say that. We will naturally handle this impartially."

"That's good!" Ruan Xiyue strolled leisurely in the square: "Now that it's been confirmed that none of my beast husbands are wandering beastmen, then there's no possibility that my beast husbands conspired with wandering beastmen to harm the Holy Mother, right?"

"Furthermore, when the wandering orcs attacked our Iron-Eating Beast tribe, they were armed with excellent iron weapons! I suspect they are the same group of orcs who attacked the Holy Maiden."

Where did they get their iron weapons? That's what you should be investigating, right?

Instead of continuing to make things difficult for me and my beasts based on unfounded speculations.”

"Of course, I know that it is a fact that our Cheetah Tribe and Lion Tribe failed to adequately escort the Holy Maiden. Therefore, I have decided to make public the method of bamboo salt production as an apology."

As soon as Ruan Xiyue finished speaking, the square, which had finally quieted down, became even more excited.

Luo Yurou's eyes widened. She opened her mouth, but said nothing.

The Holy Mother of Bright Moon Beast City was slightly surprised. Although she disliked Ruan Xiyue's repeated provocations of Bright Moon Beast City, she had to admit that she admired Ruan Xiyue's courage.

Ruan Xiyue chuckled and looked around at the orcs: "I wonder if this apology is enough? If not, then I must advise all orcs to be careful next time a Holy Maiden cries for help."

They inadvertently saved the Holy Mother, but ended up sacrificing their entire tribe. Instead of addressing the root cause—the wandering orcs—everyone was focused on the tribe that first offered the Holy Mother's aid. That was truly…heartbreaking!

The priest frowned and reminded Ruan Xiyue, "Xiyue, you too will soon be the Holy Queen!"

Ruan Xiyue waved her hand: "Let me save my beast husband first, then we can talk about the Holy Mother! Aren't I the Holy Mother yet?"

The priest could only look at Lucy the Holy Maiden's many beast husbands.

The seven seated beastmen exchanged glances, and one of the males, dressed in a blue linen robe, stood up: "If the female Xiyue truly tells us the method of making bamboo salt as an apology..."

"Then I, the beast-husband of Lucy, the Holy Mother of Lute Beast City, will choose to forgive the beast-husbands of Xiyue for their failure to protect my former mate. We cannot do anything to disappoint the tribe that first extended a helping hand to Lucy."

Then, one by one, they all stood up and said they could accept the apology and would not hold the matter against Qin Ye for failing to protect the Holy Mother. No one insisted that Qin Ye and his group had conspired with the wandering orcs to murder the Holy Mother.

Ruan Xiyue couldn't quite describe her feelings.

The world is full of goodwill, and the world is all good.

Luo Yurou remained deeply saddened until all the orcs in the square had dispersed.

She pulled Ruan Xiyue aside and asked, "Since you're going to provide them with the formula, this will solve the problem. Why don't you just talk to them privately?"

Ruan Xiyue looked at Luo Yurou in surprise: "Why did I say this in private? First of all, it was them who conducted the trial in public, right? Whether it was to get the formula from the Cheetah Tribe or to openly enslave us all."

They want to do things openly and honestly. Why should we offer them benefits and settle things privately? It would make us look guilty.

Luo Yurou sighed: "But if we give them all the recipes, we won't have an advantage when we build the Beast City in the future."

Ruan Xiyue shook her head: "The advantages of Beast City cannot be sustained by a single formula."

Luo Yurou was slightly stunned as she looked at Ruan Xiyue, who was so confident, unrestrained, and in complete control.

She suddenly felt that she might not be suitable to compete for the position of Holy Queen.

Luo Yurou lowered her head again and muttered, "But I still think we've been taken advantage of."

Ruan Xiyue shook her head: "No. When you eat, you should look at the whole plate of meat, take a bite first, and then finish the rest one bite at a time."

Ruan Xiyue originally wanted to say to Luo Yurou: Just like doing business, I want you to feel that there is something to gain.

I'll use business tactics to gradually tie your neck to mine.

Impossible. I'd tie you up with a rope and place you in my contractual position as the second party. How could we discuss cooperation then? How could we talk about a win-win situation where the first party wins one deal after another?

Ruan Xiyue sighed and wanted to ruffle Luo Yurou's hair, but then realized that Luo Yurou was taller than her, so she could only pat Luo Yurou's hand instead: "Never mind. Don't force yourself to listen if you don't understand. Just know that the problem in front of us has been solved. We have proven three things in front of everyone."

Luo Yurou looked at Ruan Xiyue, puzzled.

Ruan Xiyue held up her finger: "First, Qin Ye is not an orc who colluded with the wandering orcs. He is innocent, so the entire Cheetah Tribe will not be implicated."

"Secondly, I, Beastman Longze, am not a wandering beastman. Never have been. No one will question this anymore."

"Thirdly, the recipe for bamboo salt will benefit Lute Beast City the most, as it owns bamboo forests. If there are any forces secretly watching the Iron-Eating Beastman Tribe or the Cheetah Tribe, they should dare to cause trouble for Lute Beast City."

Luo Yurou nodded knowingly: "Now that you put it that way, I understand, don't I? What's with all this talk about eating meat and not eating meat! Really! They're deliberately saying such strange things, who can understand them!"

Ruan Xiyue looked at Luo Yurou with loving eyes and smiled kindly.

Anyway, the bamboo salt production method she presented was the simplest one. When conditions allow, they'll make better bamboo salt. Of course, that's after their beast city is established and becomes powerful.

Xia Weier waited until Ruan Xiyue and Luo Yurou finished talking before taking Ruan Xiyue's hand and saying, "Now that these troublesome issues have been resolved, can you come and live with me in the inner city of Beast City?"

Ruan Xiyue nodded: "Then we need to go back and pack our things."

Ruan Xiyue turned to look at her beast husbands, and saw that they were busy taking care of the cubs, including the Qin family beast mother and the others who were helping Ruan Xiyue hold the cubs.

Long Ze carried a baby dragon in each hand: "Everything is in the storage bag, so we don't really need to go to the inn."

Qin Ye quickly caught the look Long Ze was giving him: "Our mother and the others will definitely be staying at a hotel, they'll help us cancel our reservations."

Ruan Xiyue didn't like the stares from those around her, so she couldn't help but ask, "How much longer do I have to wait before I can receive the Holy Mother's Blessing?"
