35: Nan Zhisui found Hu Qi

Hu Qi felt his entire skeletal and muscular system being drained; a trickle of something extracted began to flow down his body.

He was losing something very important.

Health, life... and Bloodline!

The intense pain, akin to being skinned and having his tendons pulled, made it almost impossible for him to breathe.

And these things were flowing toward Hu Lie's body nearby.

"No! No..."

The beast markings on Hu Qi's face gradually diminished as the Bloodline drained away.

Six markings... one beast marking gradually vanished, becoming five... then five gradually vanished... four markings... three markings... He trembled all over from the pain.

"It's almost done! Hu Lie, Hu Zi, our Family is about to possess the Ancient Bloodline!!"

"Haha, hahahahahahaha!!"

Fox Heart burst out laughing.

She had plotted for so long, so very long. Her attempt to get White Fox's Father Beast had failed. Her attempt to have her own Female daughter obtain White Fox had also failed.

Now, she could only strike at a young, innocent child.

It was a bit despicable. But so what?

She was doing this for the village, for her own Family!

She absolutely could not let Stone Village's Ancient Bloodline flow out of Stone Village!

This was Stone Village's hope, the hope for the village's rise!

The rain fell harder and harder, as if trying to wash away all these crimes.

Rumble, rumble rumble!

Lightning struck and thunder rolled.

Fox Heart saw Hu Qi's blood flowing toward Hu Lie. Hu Lie's Bloodline was being stimulated, and the three beast markings on his face were progressing toward four!

"The Ancient Bloodline... the Ancient Bloodline is truly Heaven-Defying!" Fox Heart said.

Hu Zi felt a bit fearful and whispered, "Mother, is it really okay for us to steal Hu Qi's Ancient Bloodline like this? Won't the beast god punish us?"

"What the hell do you know!" Fox Heart said like a madwoman.

"As long as Lie'er can get the Ancient Bloodline, what does it matter if I suffer a little punishment?!"

"Boom! Chirp, Bang!"

The Cave shook for a moment. The red blood flowing out of Hu Qi seemed to hesitate for an instant, shrinking back just a little bit.

"What was that sound?!" Hu Zi's beast husband suddenly asked.

"Was it thunder? Was that lightning just now?"

"Are we being punished with thunder by the beast god for plagiarizing the Bloodline?!"

Fox Heart barked, "What are you panicking for!"

"Success is imminent. Stay steady for me!"

The Male Beastmen lowered their heads uneasily, but before they could do anything, rumble rumble, another tremor shook the mountain.

"Something's not right, female master! This is definitely no ordinary disturbance!"

"The beast god has come to punish us! The beast god has come to punish us!"

"The Ancient Bloodline cannot be taken away so casually!" The Males were extremely anxious.

"Useless!"

Fox Heart turned to look at her and Hu Zi's beast husbands. "Are you content to be mediocre and ordinary for your whole lives? Are you willing to let Stone Village be oppressed and looked down upon by other villages forever?"

"For our descendants, for the Family, what does it matter if we risk our lives once!!"

"If the beast god really wants to punish me or wants me dead, let it wait until the deed is done! After Hu Lie becomes the possessor of the Ancient Bloodline, I will gladly die for the Family and bear the punishment!"

Awooo!!!

Awooo awooo!!!!

"There are wolves outside, a whole Wolf Pack!!!" the Males shouted.

Fox Heart frowned and said, "Hu Zi, take a few Males and go drive away the Wolf Pack!"

"The rest of you must protect the Formation for me!"

Hu Qi twitched in pain, yet he seemed to sense something. He looked up toward the Cave entrance.

Is someone coming?

Is it Daddy, or Mommy?

...Nan Zhisui's eyes practically turned red when she realized the situation inside the Cave.

She had used the Wolf Pack to help find people, but she had originally only wanted to find the truth—to know if White Fox was her beast husband and if Hu Qi was her cubs.

She wanted to know what had happened over all these years that made everyone believe she had sold her beast husband as a Beast Slave, causing her beast husband and cubs to live such a hard life.

But when she saw everything in the Cave and saw Fox Heart, her heart felt like it was being twisted by a knife.

Fox Heart. She knew Fox Heart; how could she not!

It was she who had entrusted White Fox and his son to Fox Heart! It was she who had given Fox Heart supplies and begged this village chief to take care of them!

But... everything clicked. Nan Zhisui didn't even need to ask; she was completely certain.

White Fox was indeed her beast husband, and Hu Qi was indeed her cubs!

And the beast who had caused her beast husband and cubs to live such a hard life was the Female before her—the village chief of Stone Village, Fox Heart!

Nan Zhisui took a signal flare from her space and bit open the cap to launch it.

A bright red signal flare exploded in the sky.

White Fox, our cubs is being persecuted! Hurry, hurry and get here!

Nan Zhisui threw several spring thunder, likely explosive material. The gunpowder frightened the beastmen in the Cave. Then, unable to wait for White Fox, she braved immense risk and broke into the Cave alone.

Perhaps it was the connection of blood, for the moment Nan Zhisui stepped inside, the little White Fox beastman looked up wretchedly.

Blood had moistened his eyes, and his vision was not clear, but under the red bloody light, he still saw Nan Zhisui.

"Mom... Mommy..."

This was the first time Nan Zhisui personally felt the taste of a broken heart!

This was her cubs, her cubs!

The first time she heard her cubs call her Mommy was actually under such circumstances!

Nan Zhisui's eyes were bloodshot. Her face was frighteningly calm. She stared straight at him for several seconds, then lit a fuse and threw a bundle of spring thunder toward Fox Heart.

Bang!!!

When she was hoarding supplies back on Earth, she had hoarded a huge amount of food, drinks, and daily necessities.

She had also hoarded some kitchen knives and fruit knives.

But in peaceful Huaguo, firearms could not be bought.

So she had bought many spring thunder and Gatling fireworks. They were all piled up in her space!

Fox Heart was blown to the ground. Her beast husbands immediately helped her up.

"Aaaah, my foot, my foot!" The beastmen had never seen such a thing as spring thunder, so they lacked defense. Fox Heart's foot was severely injured by the blast, flesh and blood flying!

Within the blood-red Formation, the Bloodline exchange continued to proceed.

Once the priest's chanting guidance was gone, the blood being drained from Hu Qi seemed to reject the high-level Bloodline next to it and began scrambling to return to Hu Qi's body.

"No, no, my Bloodline, my Family's Bloodline!"

Fox Heart glared at Nan Zhisui. "Nan Zhisui, it's you again! You're ruining my plans again!!"

Five years ago, because of Nan Zhisui's sudden appearance, her arrangements were disrupted, and White Fox actually mated and had children with an outsider Female, Nan Zhisui!

And now, five years later, Nan Zhisui had appeared again and disrupted her plans once more!

The Family Bloodline that was clearly within reach had actually returned to Hu Qi's body!

But it didn't matter. As long as she started chanting again, she could... A group of Males surrounded her. At this moment, Nan Zhisui only had eyes for the blood-covered Hu Qi and the reliant, yearning look in his eyes as he looked at her.

"Hu Qi!"

"Mom... Mommy..." The little fox cubs' tears of attachment fell.

"Aqi is in so much pain, Aqi hurts so much..."

Seeing Hu Qi cry, Nan Zhisui's emotions could no longer be suppressed. She glanced at the Formation that had been damaged by the spring thunder. Ignoring everything else, she stepped into the Formation.
