166: Chapter 166 Crossing the Sea by Boat, Feeling Indebted

Fu Ning held her, took a deep breath in her arms, and suddenly flipped over.

"There's water! There's water! beast god's blessing, there's water in the river!"

"Ahhh, we're saved! We won't be going to see the beast god!"

"This is great! There's water in the river, we don't have to worry anymore!"

"Little Flower Mother, our cubs are saved!"

"Oh my god, it's incredible! The river water has finally returned!"

“...”

Sang Qing put on her clothes and walked out, vaguely hearing the continuous cheers and shouts.

Sa Yu returned with the cubs he was walking, a happy smile on his face. He kissed Qing Qing's face, "Qing Qing, the river in the forest has water again."

It must have been Qing Qing.

This is great, all these Beastmen can live now.

With water, the plants will soon be nourished, and once the forest returns to its original state, these Beastmen can go back to their original Tribe and live peacefully.

Sang Qing smiled and nodded.

It seems the system is quite reliable.

She quickly washed up, preparing to go check out the river.

A branch of the river was not far from their dwelling.

When Sang Qing arrived at the riverbank, she saw many Beastmen tumbling and splashing in the surging river, their faces ecstatic, clearly overjoyed.

They hadn't seen water in a long time, and their joy was so overwhelming that they could only express their happiness in this way.

"female, thank you."

An excited voice came from behind her.

She turned her head and saw it was one of the Tribe leaders from yesterday.

His eyes were tearful and he was very happy, his smile much more sincere than yesterday.

Sang Qing smiled gently.

It seems he truly believes it was her.

The nearest large tree by the river had quietly sprouted tender buds. Sang Qing thought, spring, though late, had arrived.

Although the river flow was restored and Sang Qing received the shell crystal as promised, she wasn't in a hurry to leave.

Because she still had to spread the word about the beast god's existence, she specially set up a beast god stone statue by the river and invited the Beastmen of Qingshan Forest to a fruit banquet.

She would provide the fruit.

Firstly, to celebrate with them, and secondly, to encourage them to worship the beast god more in the future and provide the beast god with power of faith.

Sa Yu held the Little Cub in his arms and took a bite of the sweet, crisp fruit in his hand. "Cub, look, your Mother is amazing."

He pinched the Little Cub's head, forcing them to look at Sang Qing, who was at the sacrificial altar.

She was the center of attention.

Sa Yu stared at Sang Qing intently, his smile growing brighter.

If it weren't for being surrounded by familiar Beastmen, he would surely be cheering loudly,

Sang Ling nestled in her Father's arms, licking the corner of her mouth.

She wasn't interested in her Mother, but she was quite interested in the fruit in her Father's hand.

Not only Sa Yu, but several other Beastmen also stared at Sang Qing with gleaming eyes.

Their faces all showed a look of shared honor.

But their inner thoughts were a completely different scene.

Don't spread the word. Their mates are already outstanding enough, and they're almost feeling inferior. If they attract more attention from Beastmen and more males who want to steal their mates appear, they'll have nowhere to cry.

Sang Miao also sat in her Father's arms, her little eyes darting around. Out of the corner of her eye, she stared at the fruit in Sa Yu Father's hand, almost drooling.

"Ah ah ah..." Baby wants to eat.

Wants to eat!

Father.

Sang Miao looked up at her biological Father, who was focused on staring at Mother, and her eyes twitched.

She was talking.

Father?

Hmph!

Baby is angry.

Baby really wants to eat fruit.

It smells so good.

But then, she saw a vine quietly creeping towards Sa Yu Father.

She turned her head and saw her brother was using his Supernatural Ability to do something mischievous.

Sang Miao smiled smugly, immediately getting an idea.

Hehehe, baby can do it too.

But she was smarter than Sang Xuan; she wouldn't eat the fruit Sa Yu Father had already bitten.

There were fresh ones in the basket behind.

She decided she wanted to eat fresh ones.

She then activated her vine, sending it around to the back.

Xuan Xiao and the others were so engrossed in their mates that they didn't notice the unusual movements of the two Little Cubs.

Little Six yawned in Herman's arms and looked at Little Five, signaling her with his eyes.

Sister, can you get me one too?

Sang Miao pouted disdainfully, but still secretly handed him one.

What could she do? Her own little brother was so handsome; beauty was justice.

She liked pretty little brothers.

Sang Yan caught the fruit and smiled gratefully at her, a smile so sweet it could make a Beast swoon.

Sang Miao felt a surge of excitement inside.

Ahhh, little brother is so handsome!

Good thing Mother also gave birth to her beautifully, otherwise she would cry from anger.

Sang Miao giggled, winked at him, and then got a fruit for herself.

Because the Beast's little paws were small, she couldn't hold the fruit steadily.

But in her haste, she used her Supernatural Ability to have a vine assist her.

Opening her small mouth with only a few teeth, Sang Miao bit into the fruit skin.

Mmm, it's so hard.

Why is it different from what she usually eats?

But baby can do it.

Sang Ling heard rustling sounds, sat up from Chi Yu's arms, and wiggled her body.

She looked back and saw her foolish sister clumsily gnawing on a fruit, not even having peeled it.

Silly Cub, they always peel and mash their fruit.

But little sister is really cute.

But this didn't stop her from tattling.

"Father, sister, secretly eating!"

Sang Ling quickly tugged at Chi Yu's collar, her fair, tender little hand pointing at the little one secretly eating behind them.

Chi Yu didn't react immediately, because he too was drooling over his mate, his eyes full of desire.

But then, the Little Cub in his arms stomped on his hand.

He snapped back to reality and looked down in confusion.

"Sister, secretly eating!" A childish voice rang in his ear.

What?

Who's secretly eating?

Chi Yu turned around, just in time to meet Sang Xuan's wide-eyed gaze as he held a fruit and was happily munching on it.

The female's fist-sized fruit already had a small bite mark from Sang Xuan, with some residue around his mouth. Sang Xuan was happily munching when suddenly a large hand reached out and mercilessly snatched the fruit from his hand.

"Sang! Xuan!" Xuan Xiao was furious, directly crushing the bitten fruit in his hand.

Alright, alright, this stupid cub of his is really smart, he's even learned to find food for himself.

It's just that they can't digest this fruit; it's completely inedible!

If Qing Qing knew, she'd beat him to death.

Fu Ning and Herman were no exception; all of them had gloomy faces. They carried their Little Cubs behind the tree, and then... Father dealt with them alone.

Helpless cries rang out. Sang Ling sat back in her Father's arms, secretly delighted, her Merit and fame (achievements and fame) hidden deep.

Anyway, they wouldn't remember that she was the one who did it.

Chi Yu stroked her soft hair, "Cub is so good, already taking care of her younger siblings."

He didn't think there was anything wrong with tattling this time; in fact, he felt very lucky.

It was a good thing they found out in time, otherwise those three little ones would have eaten all the fruit.

Then they would definitely have upset stomachs.

Sigh!

He didn't know why, but these three Little Cubs were truly mischievous.

Xuan Xiao, without exception, gave his cub two crisp slaps, but Sang Xuan didn't cry at all.

His eyes welled up with tears, his eye sockets red, and he bit his lip tightly.

Hmph, he would wait until Mother returned, then cry in front of her.

Xuan Xiao saw how stubborn he was and was a little at a loss for a moment.

But soon, he understood his intention.

Looking at the cub in his mate's arms, who was covering his little bottom and crying so hard he was gasping for breath, a murderous gaze shot over, and Xuan Xiao instantly felt a chill down his spine.

!!!

Is this his biological cub? Even calculating against his own Father.

Oh, for heaven's sake.

The evening's festivities lasted for a long time. Sang Qing looked at the Qingshan Forest Beastmen, whose faces were full of smiles, and her eyes shone brightly.

When the Little Cubs in her arms were almost too sleepy to open their eyes, Sang Qing carried them back.

Let's go back to sleep early, we still have to travel tomorrow.

Sang Xuan tugged at Sang Qing's clothes, his tear stains barely dry on his face. He closed his eyes in the warm embrace, his long, thick eyelashes paired with his adorable, fair, and tender face, truly loved by all Beastmen and admired by all flowers.

Provided he behaved.

Sang Qing lowered her head and kissed his forehead, then took the towel Xuan Xiao handed her and carefully wiped his face and little hands.

Little Four was truly the most mischievous and disobedient of all her cubs.

But he was still young, so she couldn't discipline him yet.

Once he was older, Sang Qing would definitely teach him the basic principles of being a Beast.

Xuan Xiao squatted beside Sang Qing, quietly watching this scene without speaking.

Mmm, he thought Qing Qing was so gentle right now.

So beautiful.

He even wished he could turn into a Little Cub and lie in her arms.

Sang Qing threw the towel on his face, "Wash it again."

What was he thinking? She called him several times, and he didn't even respond.

Xuan Xiao smiled brightly, his eyes sparkling, and quickly washed the towel and handed it back.

Hehe, even though he couldn't turn into a Little Cub and lie in his mate's arms, tonight he could openly hug her to sleep!

Sang Qing pretended not to notice his burning gaze.

This guy, he's in heat again.

After settling the Little Cubs, Sang Qing washed up and, carrying a faint fragrance, lay down in the tent.

Xuan Xiao followed her in.

His originally happy face wrinkled instantly. He quickly came to Sang Qing's side, his eyes dark. "Qing Qing, you misunderstood me just now. What should we do?"

Sang Qing was rummaging for something. Hearing his words, she snorted lightly, "Well, if you hadn't looked after Little Four properly, would he have defied you like that?"

What did she misunderstand?

She saw her cub crying so hard, her heart was aching.

How could she care about misunderstandings or not?

Besides, she didn't do anything, just glared at him twice.

"I said we shouldn't have cubs! With cubs, you only care about them!" Xuan Xiao was so angry he felt like spitting blood, clutching his chest with a wounded expression.

He didn't have much affection for cubs to begin with, and now because of the cubs, his mate didn't trust him. He felt like he was falling apart.

Sang Qing glanced at him, lifted the quilt, and lay down. "They've already been born. Am I supposed to stuff them back in?"

Xuan Xiao rolled over next to her, nodding with a resentful expression.

Sang Qing unhappily patted him twice, unable to suppress a laugh. "Dream on.

Well, then, tonight you can just imagine life without cubs."

Mainly, Little Four was different from Little Five and Little Six; his personality was a bit too lively.

But there was nothing she could do; she couldn't choose her children's personalities.

Xuan Xiao's face turned green with anger, and he immediately turned his back to her.

Sang Qing gently kicked him, then slowly closed her eyes, "You're not a Little Cub anymore, getting angry won't do any good."

So tired today.

But quite happy.

They should reach the seaside the day after tomorrow, right?

Then they can take a boat across the sea.

Xuan Xiao looked at the dark night, his nose filled with a lingering, delicate fragrance.

He wasn't angry at all.

He was thinking about how to hand Little Four over to Fu Ning, or exchange her for another cub with other beasts.

If Sang Qing knew what he was thinking, she would definitely crack open his head to see what was inside.

Luckily, she didn't know.

Even breathing sounds came from beside his ear, and only then did Xuan Xiao realize something.

It was late.

A faint green light flickered in the darkness, and Xuan Xiao immediately burrowed into the quilt, pouncing on his mate with a joyful expression.

...

She thought she could finally get some good rest tonight.

As her consciousness drifted, Sang Qing heard a low inquiry.

"Qing Qing, Little Four isn't obedient. How about giving me another little female?"

Sang Qing reached out and patted his shoulder, just like comforting a large wolfdog.

Ah, Little Four, look how wronged your Father is, he's even talking in his sleep.

Of course, Xuan Xiao was just talking big; he knew his mate wouldn't have another cub for the next few years.

He also didn't want another cub to take away his mate's attention.

After all, he preferred his mate to focus on the matter at hand with him.

A night of sweet dreams.

Even after a full day had passed, the Tribesmen of Qingshan Forest were still in an excited state.

Unlike their previous fear and anxiety, seeing the green buds re-emerge on the treetops, the Tribesmen were full of vitality, just like the tender sprouts on the trees, bursting with life.

Sang Qing and her family were also about to leave.

When Wise Elder learned they were leaving today, he brought a group of Tribesmen to see them off.

They were undoubtedly grateful to Sang Qing.

If she hadn't appeared, death would have been their only path.

She truly was an envoy of the beast god, appearing just in time.

Green shoots began to sprout from the weeds on the ground. Sang Qing waved goodbye to Wise Elder and his group, ready to embark on a new journey.

As she left, she didn't forget to tell them to offer more sacrifices to the beast god.

The more faith the beast god received, the stronger his divine power would be.

This was extremely important for the future of the Beast World.

Wise Elder, of course, believed her words implicitly.

Bidding them farewell, Sang Qing continued walking through the forest with her family.

Two days later.

They reached the seaside.

The undulating coastline appeared before them, the vast and magnificent sea was calm, and the salty sea breeze blew past. Little Five was inexplicably excited.

As a Merfolk Clan member, she had a natural affinity for the ocean.

She really wanted to go swimming.

Father, Father, baby wants to swim!

She twisted excitedly in Fu Ning's arms, her eyes sparkling.

Fu Ning knew what she was thinking. He hadn't been in contact with the sea for a long time either, so he had the same idea as his cub.

But he only dared to take her to play in the shallow water, as she hadn't yet transformed and couldn't dive deep.

Sang Qing rented a boat from the Mall, adhering to the principle of not wasting, only renting, not buying.

She was now unwilling to spend even a single point more.

Anyway, it wasn't like it was impossible.

The system was already used to her level of calculation.

The yacht Sang Qing rented was not small; there was still room left even with one room per beast, and the rooms themselves were quite spacious.

But this was actually the smallest yacht in the Mall; otherwise, it would be a motor yacht, which definitely wouldn't do.

The brand new two-story yacht was enormous. After they finished marveling, Sang Qing quickly led them onto the boat.

The boat not only had a swimming pool but also a Kitchen and a restaurant.

There were also many recreational facilities.

Sang Qing thought the Little Cubs would definitely like them.

She hadn't taken many boat trips; she'd only been on one or two when traveling in her previous life. She was just glad she didn't get seasick.

She just wondered if anyone in her family got seasick?

The cruise ship sailed automatically; she only needed to set the coordinates.

Sang Qing checked the map, set the landmark for docking, and then returned to the cabin.

She hadn't had a comfortable bath in a long time, and the ship provided hot water, so she could also take a bath.

Giggles from the Little Cubs came from the cabin. Sang Qing glanced at them, then turned and walked into the bathroom.

The ship traveled very fast, but the sea was too vast, and they still needed three full days to reach their next destination.

After only half a day of sailing, Xuan Xiao and Herman began to show signs of seasickness.

In fact, not just them, Fu Ning and Chi Yu also felt a little seasick.

But one of them could transform into his Beast Form and fly around, and the other could jump into the sea and swim a few laps, so even a little seasickness didn't affect them much.

Only these two... their situation was the most serious.

Sang Qing hadn't expected Xuan Xiao to get seasick, which almost made her laugh.

Looking at the two tall males groaning on her lap, she quickly bought seasickness medicine from the Mall and fed one pill to each beast.

The sun rose overhead, the seaside shimmered, and the weather was fair and beautiful.

Aniel and Sa Yu, meanwhile, took the cubs to explore all the facilities on the boat, then played with them unrestrainedly.

Sang Qing sat on the deck, basking in the sun and cultivating.

After taking the seasickness medicine, Xuan Xiao and Herman were fully revived.

"Sa Yu, throw the cubs down to play in the water, it's warm." Fu Ning transformed into his Beast Form, swimming freely with his cub in the pool, not forgetting to call out to the other beasts.

Staying in the warm water was simply too comfortable.

Just like taking a bath.

Under the sunlight, the water surface refracted colorful hues. Fu Ning's enormous fish tail swayed in the water, making Little Five's eyes turn green with envy. She kept bouncing her two legs, wishing she could quickly grow a tail herself.

"Ah ah~" Where's baby's tail?

Baby wants a big, beautiful tail like that too.

Father, make a tail for baby!

Little Five reached out, ready to dive into the water to grab Fu Ning's fish tail, she was so envious.

Fu Ning couldn't help but laugh, and simply used his tail to play with her.

Not bad, not bad, this little one has some Merfolk Clan traits.

He looked forward to her transformation.

"Is that so?" Sa Yu glanced at the spacious swimming pool, and while stripping the Little Cub, he flew up and kicked Aniel, who was eagerly waiting on the shore, into the water.

With a splash, Aniel fell into the water, flailing his arms and legs desperately.

Ah, ah, help!

He couldn't swim!

Brother Sa Yu is so mean.

But after a few flails, he realized the water only reached his chest.

When he stood up straight, his face flushed with a hint of embarrassment.

"Hahaha~" The surrounding beasts couldn't help but burst into laughter.

...

Aniel looked wronged.

They were all bad beasts.

Hmph!

Sang Ling was caught by Fu Ning and held in the water, her big eyes instantly lighting up.

Wow!

Such comfortable water.

This bathtub is so big.

Mother is awesome.

She immediately began to wave her arms and legs in the water impatiently.

As a Sea Eagle Beastman, Chi Yu naturally wasn't afraid of water. Except for Herman, most of the other beasts just went straight into the water.

Only Herman, after a moment of mental preparation, slowly slid in.

Ugh, he only liked playing in the water when mating with Qing Qing.

The six Little Cubs had a high acceptance rate and immediately started playing excitedly in the water.

Sa Yu threw a few of their toys in and then joined them in playing.

Xuan Xiao propped himself up, leaning on the shore, looking at his mate who was cultivating.

The warm sunlight sprinkled between her gentle brows and eyes, giving him a feeling that he could never look enough.

A faint smile hung on his lips, and his eyes were full of affection.

Speaking of which, none of them, as Qing Qing's mates, had helped her much; instead, Qing Qing had always given more.

He felt a sense of indebtedness but didn't know how to help her better.

Aniel swam over, imitating Xuan Xiao's posture, smiling happily as he looked at Sang Qing.

"Brother Xuan Xiao, Sister is really beautiful."

Truly beautiful.

Xuan Xiao glanced at him askance, nodding as if it were obvious.

When would this guy's memory return to normal?

Qing Qing said that once they crossed the sea, even if he recovered, it would be difficult to send him back.

His sixth sense told him that Aniel would not be an easy opponent in the future.

He really wanted to just hold him underwater and drown him.

His Qing Qing... sigh.

Sighing softly in his heart, Xuan Xiao dove into the water.

Don't think about it, better go play with the cubs.

Those little ones were overjoyed when they saw the water.

And none of them got seasick.

The six plump cubs floated in the water, and Fu Ning laughed as he lay on his back on the surface.

Comfortable.

These days were too leisurely; he was still a little unaccustomed to it.

It was just that his mate still had to cultivate and couldn't get into the water.

Maybe tonight, after everyone fell asleep, he could secretly bring Qing Qing out... Fu Ning was lost in thought when he suddenly heard a familiar cry from the sea.

Was it his Tribesmen?

Fu Ning quickly got out of the water and walked towards the side of the boat.

Indeed, a group of Merfolk were curiously swimming alongside the ship, their gazes astonished as they stared at the enormous object before them.

Fu Ning didn't recognize them, but they recognized Fu Ning.

The Merfolk Clan beneath the sea was spread everywhere. Fu Ning had visited this sea area before when he patrolled with his Mother.

So these Merfolk were very clear about Fu Ning's identity.

After all, he was being groomed to be the next Merfolk King.

Fu Ning waved to them, and after asking his mate, invited them aboard.

This group of Merfolk consisted of both males and females, all young Merfolk.

The Merfolk Clan had a wild nature and liked to travel around when they had nothing to do.

They were originally hunting sea beasts underwater, but unexpectedly, a colossal object swiftly passed overhead. They thought it was some giant sea beast and followed it.

As they tried to approach the giant object, they were pushed away by the surging waves.

The males became interested and insisted on getting closer, but they only managed to touch the giant object's hard shell, which they couldn't bite through or overturn.
