111: Chi Xiao knew she was his mistress.
"Or do you dislike turning into a snake?"
"Your heart is beating so fast; you're a bit nervous." He was probing her.
Nan Zhisui shoved him away abruptly. She failed to move him.
Xuan Jin frowned slightly.
"How is your strength getting weaker and weaker?"
The Strongman Ability provided by the System injection had completely expired. After her training in the Beast World, her current strength was only slightly better than that of an average Male on Earth.
But this was completely insufficient in front of the seven-pattern Male, Xuan Jin.
He wasn't in a hurry; he could train her, make her very powerful, and even one day allow her to completely control herself.
Strange, as a Cold-Blooded Snake Beastman, he actually felt a bit willing, and even had a small sense of anticipation.
Xuan Jin's forked tongue lightly brushed against the collar of her beast skin skirt, his cold voice actually carrying a hint of jealousy.
"How did you contract so many beast husbands? Let's check exactly how many totem marks are on your body."
"Xuan Jin!"
Nan Zhisui tried her best to hide her nervousness, backing away slightly. Xuan Jin's arm imprisoned her waist, preventing her from leaving.
But before Nan Zhisui could struggle, Xuan Jin lowered his hand and rested his head on her shoulder.
"Forget it. Knowing will only make me upset. It's better not to know."
Nan Zhisui was held by him like this; perhaps because they were so close, she could feel his heartbeat.
Xuan Jin's possessiveness was very strong; he had always wanted her all to himself.
But now, he was also making concessions step by step, trying to set aside his pride to integrate into her Family.
Nan Zhisui understood him; feeling him holding her, for some reason, her long-frozen heart felt a twinge of sorrow for him.
With the Little Female letting him hold her so obediently, Xuan Jin was actually a bit unaccustomed to it.
He released her and lowered his head to observe her.
He twitched his nose uncomfortably, "The scent of those stinky birds is everywhere here. Let's go back first."
Nan Zhisui shook her head. "No, I can't go back."
In just one day, she had gained the favor of the Bird Beastmen, Han Feng, and Huo Jun.
The first step of her plan had been achieved.
Tomorrow, she would start using this favor to search for Little Fu.
Moreover, for her, besides Little Fu, there was also... her eldest treasure, Huo Jun, who was also here.
She was reluctant to leave; she couldn't leave yet.
Xuan Jin narrowed his eyes at her and said, "Are you staying because you need to find that Little Merman?"
Nan Zhisui nodded, "Yes."
Xuan Jin looked up toward Huo Jun's Cave; there was a slight fishy smell.
Xuan Jin had no interest in any beast other than Nan Zhisui, but if Nan Zhisui used the Little Merman as a reason not to leave with him, then he would just go help her find the Little Merman.
"Fine."
The black Snake Beastman turned and walked out of the Cave.
The branches of two lush trees were intertwined; Xuan Jin used his agile, large snake tail, preparing to leap from a branch on one tree to another.
Nan Zhisui chased after him, grabbing Xuan Jin's large hand, her expression panicked, "What are you doing?"
That was her eldest treasure's residence!
What was he going to Huo Jun's residence for?!
Nan Zhisui warned him in a low voice, "Xuan Jin, you cannot hurt Huo Jun!"
The Cold-Blooded Snake Beastman hissed, flicking his tongue as he looked down at her.
However, just then, the fiery-red High Mountain Fire Red Eagle beastman, Chi Xiao, descended from the sky.
The massive Giant Roc dove toward Xuan Jin, roaring in rage, "Stinky Snake! What do you want to do to my cub??!"
The moment the Giant Roc attacked, Xuan Jin blocked Nan Zhisui, his fierce tail whipping violently toward Chi Xiao.
The two separated quickly after the clash.
The intense commotion drew the attention of the Bird Beastmen.
Many Bird Beastmen flew out from their respective Caves, landing on tree branches.
"Snake Beastman! It's the Cold-Blooded Snake Beastman, Xuan Jin!"
"Why is he here again?"
"Is he here to snatch away the High Mountain Fire Red Eagle tribe's Female?"
"Isn't this Xuan Jin? The leader of the Wandering Beastmen."
"Is he here to snatch cubs and Females?"
"Patriarch, we can't let him take our Female and cub!"
Chi Xiao flapped his wings, eyeing him with hostility.
Xuan Jin was cold and aloof.
In this world, Snake Beastmen were not accepted or liked, let alone the fact that he was the leader of the Wandering Beastmen.
Cold stares, hostility, and misunderstandings were frequent occurrences for him.
Just like now, he clearly intended to help the Little Female find Little Fu, yet the Little Female's first thought was that he was going to harm another beastman.
Who was that beastman? Was he her cub too?
Nan Zhisui stepped forward quickly to stand in front of Xuan Jin, explaining, "No, Xuan Jin is my beast husband. He only came here because he was worried about me!"
Xuan Jin suddenly looked at the Little Female.
The Little Female was protecting him?
The Bird Beastmen also all looked toward Nan Zhisui.
Nan Zhisui's feat of moving stones during the day had left a strong impression on everyone, so the Bird Beastmen had a very good opinion of her.
But because Nan Zhisui revealed she had a Snake Beastman beast husband, everyone's favor wavered.
"Nan Zhisui, he's a Cold-Blooded Snake Beastman. You are a High Mountain Fire Red Eagle Female; why would you take a Cold-Blooded Snake Beastman as a beast husband?"
"Exactly, we Bird Beastmen and Snake Beastmen are natural enemies! No Female mates with a Cold-Blooded Snake Beastman."
Eagle Dream noticed the change in the Bird Beastmen's perception of Nan Zhisui, and a smile finally appeared on her face. She sneered, "She's an outsider Female after all, neither fish nor fowl. For a Bird Beastman Female to mate with a Snake Beastman is truly scandalous."
Han Feng also flew into the sky, joining Chi Xiao. The two massive Vulture Beastmen flew in the air, blotting out the sun.
Xuan Jin swept a cold gaze across the crowd of Bird Beastmen.
He then looked up at Chi Xiao and Han Feng, letting out a scoff. "What, in the Bird Beastman Tribe, does Male Competition also involve multiple participants?"
"Male Competition?"
"What is he saying, Male Competition??"
In beastman tribes, within the same Family, Males often started battles to compete for power, status, and the favor of the female master.
This kind of combat was very common among Males and was called Male Competition.
Nan Zhisui immediately tugged at Xuan Jin's hand, shaking her head vigorously.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no! S! t! o! p!
But Xuan Jin did not grasp Nan Zhisui's intent; he simply thought Nan Zhisui didn't want him to fight.
What?
He had already made concessions repeatedly. Was she not even going to let him engage in Male Competition?
Xuan Jin took a step forward, "Chi Xiao, since we are two Males of one Family, what, you don't dare to fight me?"
The Fire Chi Eagle beastman was stunned. "What?"
The spectating Bird Beastmen were also uniformly stunned, "Huh?"
Coming to their senses, the Bird Beastmen all lowered their heads and whispered among themselves.
"What does he mean?"
"He said he's starting a Male Competition with Chi Xiao, and mentioned two Males of one Family?"
"Does Xuan Jin mean they are one Family? People of the same Family?"
"Two beast husbands of one female master???"
The eyes of all the Bird Beastmen suddenly converged on Nan Zhisui!
Nan Zhisui's scalp tingled, and she got goosebumps all over!!!
Huo Jun walked out holding Fufu; after hearing Xuan Jin's words, a storm of shock erupted in Huo Jun's heart.
Sister Nan is Father Beast's female master, which means she is his mother?!
"Big Brother, it's Mommy, Mommy!" Fufu said, waving her chubby arms.
Huo Jun's arms held Little Fu tighter and tighter.
The High Mountain Fire Red Eagle in the sky flapped its wings and landed from the air onto Nan Zhisui's tree trunk, staring intently at her.
These beautiful black eyes looked more and more familiar the more he looked.
The Male asked directly: "Are you my female master? Are you the Female who contracted me in the tree hollow?"
Ahhh, Star Mom knows you are all very good babies, but Star Mom is really trying her best to write.
Sometimes when I write too fast, the quality suffers, the pace gets messy, and my thoughts get disorganized. (Maintaining quality, maintaining quality.)
Also, this book has many characters; I have to think for a long time about their personalities, how to present them, and how to express them... (I want everyone to have a distinct personality, their own highlights, as well as their own strengths and weaknesses. Star Mom doesn't want everyone to recognize them just by name; I hope they have Souls, and readers will know who it is through their actions or words.)
I really welcome babies to urge for updates, but please be gentle and don't be accusatory. Thank you.
