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

Xia Weier held Ji Wu's hand: "They will definitely inform you of the results of the selection of the Holy Maiden within a week."

"When we left the Deer Tribe, their selection process was still ongoing. The Holy Female Test usually lasts for a month. That is, the test ended while we were en route."

"It would take at least seven days to travel from the Deer Clan tribe to Bright Moon Beast City. However, the results of the Holy Female Test Conference will not be delivered at a life-or-death pace."

"So, they should have arrived within a week of us arriving at Brightmoon Beast City. Because we are traveling at a slower pace, they should have arrived in the last few days."

"Once they have handed over the results, Brightmoon Beast City will immediately notify you. Then, a priestly blessing ceremony will be arranged within a month."

"Once the ceremony is over, you will be the Holy Mother."

Ruan Xiyue frowned: "Oh? This is so troublesome! How long will it take before we can go back and build the Beast City?"

Xia Weier smiled and said, "It will probably take about six months."

Luo Yurou was stunned and exclaimed in disbelief, "So long?"

Xia Weier nodded: "Because the priests of Brightmoon Beast City need to submit the results of Brightmoon Beast City's selection of the Holy Maiden."

"The Beast World Continent is so vast that the selection results from other Beast Cities must be submitted to the Holy City."

"The Holy City will provide some support and assistance, but they will select one or two of the best Holy Maidens to help their tribes establish Beast Cities. The other Holy Maidens who are not granted permission will likely remain in the Beast Cities they arrive in."

Luo Yurou was extremely nervous: "Does that mean our Cheetah Tribe might not be able to build a Beast City?"

Xia Weier smiled but did not give Luo Yurou an answer.

Luo Yurou looked at Ruan Xiyue with concern: "If that's the case, I might have to go back and tell my father about this sooner rather than later, so he can be mentally prepared. But it's okay. Don't worry."

"Because the tribe that selects the Holy Mother will have to reduce the resources it pays to Beast City by 30% each year!"

“You’ve already done a remarkable job, Xi Yue. On behalf of all the orcs of the Cheetah Tribe, I thank you.”

Ruan Xiyue shook her head and patted Luo Yurou's hand: "Aren't you sure you want to wait a little longer? You only brought two beastmen with you, and I'm a little worried about you."

Xia Wei'er suggested at the opportune moment, "I can arrange for my guards to escort you back. Don't worry, they are all red-rank males."

Luo Yurou gratefully performed a chest-touching salute to Xia Weier, a gesture reserved for high-ranking orcs. She placed her right hand, palm facing inward and fingertips pointing to the upper left, on her left chest.

Xia Weier nodded, accepting Luo Yurou's greeting with composure. He raised his left hand and pointed two fingers forward in the air. Instantly, two males clad in leather armor appeared.

"Take four more guards with you to escort Luo Yurou back to the Cheetah Tribe. After the escort is complete, there's no need to rush; safety is the most important thing."

Ruan Xiyue looked at Xia Weier with deep affection: "Thank you."

Xia Weier kissed Ruan Xiyue's forehead: "I am your beast husband, my little female."

Qin Ye looked at his beast mother with some worry: "Mother, do you really have to challenge Qin Huan, the female? Her ability level seems to be quite high..."

Qin happy nodded and patted Qin Ye on the shoulder: "This is what a Beast Mother should do. I am the one who is challenging. And she is the one who is wrong. I can apply to prohibit each other from using their abilities."

Qin Ye frowned slightly and looked at Long Ze. Long Ze, however, lowered his eyes and did not offer any opinion.

Qin Xi looked at Long Ze with hope, and after a long while, her eyes reddened with sadness. She nodded to Qin Ye and said, "We will cancel the room you booked. You should stay in the inner city; it's more suitable for Xi Yue to rest and prepare for childbirth there."

Qin Ye struggled for a moment, then looked at Ruan Xiyue.

Ruan Xiyue smiled and nodded, taking Qin Ye's large hand and placing it next to her cheek: "Go and keep your mother company. I know you must be worried, so it's better to stay by her side. When the challenge comes, come and call me to go together."

Ruan Xiyue looked at Qin happy: "Mother, don't worry, go fight. I have healing abilities, I'll be fine."

Qin happy frowned slightly, glanced worriedly at Ruan Xiyue's belly, then nodded and patted Ruan Xiyue's shoulder: "Don't worry about these things. Just focus on your pregnancy."

Ruan Xiyue and her group then called two males who were pulling a wooden cart, and they followed Xia Weier toward the inner city.

I didn’t expect Xia Weier’s place to be so close to the center of Beast City. It took me a full hour to get to Xia Weier’s house.

Xia Weier's house was built of gray-black stone, and there was a two-story stone house covering more than 500 square meters in the small courtyard.

Ruan Xiyue touched the animal-like symbols on the stone and asked Xia Weier, "What are these carved on?"

Xia Weier smiled and replied, "These are priestly runes. These priestly runes can keep this special type of stone warm in winter and cool in summer."

Ruan Xiyue then realized why Xia Weier said that the establishment of the Beast City would require a lot of help.

In truth, Ruan Xiyue didn't care about the ironworks or the pottery workshops at all. She didn't even care about salt production.

But she really didn't understand anything about priest runes or anything like that.

“You must be very tired today. Shall I help you to your room to rest?” Xia Weier asked Ruan Xiyue.

Ruan Xiyue nodded and glanced at Long Ze and Cong Xian: "Cong Xian is taking care of the baby, how about Long Ze cooks for me? I really miss your fried and roasted meat."

Long Ze nodded, handing only the male cubs in his arms to Cong Xian. He showed no intention of putting down the female cub that had fallen asleep playing on his head.

Ruan Xiyue glanced at it but didn't say anything.

Xia Wei'er's master bedroom was lavishly furnished. The entire stone bed was made from a single piece of stone engraved with runes that kept it warm in winter and cool in summer. Soft animal hide cushions were laid on the stone bed, and a cream-colored linen cloth was used as a sheet over the animal hide cushions.

Every ten steps in the room, a huge luminous pearl was embedded in the wall.

Ruan Xiyue was indeed quite tired, and she fell into a deep sleep not long after nestled in Xia Weier's arms.

Seeing that Ruan Xiyue was indeed fast asleep, Xia Weier finally smiled. He went downstairs without making a sound, looked at Long Ze who was busy in the kitchen, and asked, "Want to talk?"

Long Ze lifted his eyelids, glanced at Xia Weier, and continued what he was doing.

Xia Weier looked coldly at Long Ze and sneered, "I really didn't expect that the leader of the largest organization of wandering beasts, the Yan Beasts, would actually be my female beast husband. Don't you think so? Yan Beast leader—Xiao."

Long Ze's lips curled into a cold and cruel smile: "I never imagined that my female would become a beast husband, a troublesome member of the royal family. Don't you think so, Third Prince—Bai Wei?"
