134: Chapter 134 Unable to Suppress
"We aren't clear on the specific details; the Young Clan Leader personally instructed us to deliver these things to you."
Zhuo Ling felt like a cat was scratching at her heart; she was worried that Jin Yi had taken a liking to another Female, which was why he hadn't appeared here.
But then she thought again, if he didn't like her, why would he have his Clan Members risk the journey to deliver things to her from so far away?
Feeling a bit better, she turned around and continued to warmly greet the Males from the Golden Lion Tribe.
She wanted to pry more information out of them so she could decide what her next step should be.
If it weren't for the obstruction of the Golden Lion Tribe leader, Jin Yi would have long since become her Beast Husband; how could it be as difficult to meet as it was now?
As Zhuo Ling was pondering, a Male approached her from the side.
He stammered, "I, I would like..."
Zhuo Ling immediately pulled back her thoughts and flashed a gentle, radiant smile at him, "Hm, what would you like to say?"
The Male's face was very red, looking hesitant and indecisive.
Zhuo Ling had seen too many Males like this; she could guess what he wanted to say without him even speaking.
She felt a bit smug inside; did these Males not know that their Young Clan Leader also admired her?
Where did they get the courage to dare pursue her?
Yet, she couldn't suppress the smile on her lips, which curved upward.
"I just, wanted to ask... what is the name of that Little Female from just now? How many Beast Husbands does she have? How is her fertility?"
The smile froze on the corners of Zhuo Ling's mouth, "What did you say?"
The Male from the Golden Lion Clan had no idea that Zhuo Ling's suddenly elevated volume was due to anger, and very tactlessly repeated himself.
At this moment, another Male from the Golden Lion Clan crowded over.
"I also want to ask, what is the name of that beautiful Female who was standing at the very front just now? How much prey do I need to offer to become her Beast Husband?"
Zhuo Ling took a breath, suppressing the chaotic thoughts in her heart.
She had her Beast Husband come over to deal with them, while she turned and left.
Bai Wanwan already had two powerful and handsome Beast Husbands, and had also attracted that Male named Yan Lie.
Fortunately, Jin Yi had met her first.
She didn't walk far; after composing her emotions, she turned back.
Just as she turned around, she suddenly heard Shi Hua's voice.
"Wan Wan said this pregnancy is very stable, so don't always worry about me."
"She isn't a Shaman; what she says doesn't count. It was so hard for you to conceive."
Zhuo Ling, who had walked to the edge of the stone wall, was full of astonishment. Shi Hua was pregnant with Cubs?
How long had it been?
Even a Female with excellent fertility couldn't conceive this quickly!
"I just believe in Wan Wan. Wan Wan said I could conceive, and I did. She is even more capable than the Clan Witch!"
"Alright, alright, she's capable, but you just conceived, so you should rest at home and not worry about me."
"It's not worrying about you; I know you're capable. I want to tell you that the Stone House doesn't need to be expanded, because in a while, I want to leave with Wan Wan."
Shi Hua had been hesitating, not knowing how to tell Mu Feng.
Mu Feng had his Father Beast and Mother here, but she didn't, so she could leave easily.
Mu Feng was very surprised, "Leave? Go where?"
Standing at the base of the wall, Zhuo Ling also pricked up her ears. Bai Wanwan was leaving? That was simply great.
With such a dazzling Female around, all the powerful Males would never choose her again.
"We might go to the Golden Lion Tribe..."
After these words were spoken, Zhuo Ling's finger dug a chunk of dust off the stone wall.
Shi Hua had no idea what kind of waves her unintentional words would cause.
In fact, Bai Wanwan had never said she was going to the Golden Lion Tribe; she had only told Shi Hua that she would go to a Large Tribe, and in the future, a Super Tribe.
And in Shi Hua's narrow understanding, she had only heard of one Large Tribe, which was the Golden Lion Tribe.
So, she subconsciously linked them together, thinking that Wan Wan would take her to the Golden Lion Tribe.
This was a perfect misunderstanding, yet it caused Zhuo Ling extreme unease.
Jin Yi hadn't become her Beast Husband yet; what if... he took a liking to Bai Wanwan, and Bai Wanwan's fertility was so strong?
Beside her, Shi Hua and Mu Feng talked as they slowly walked away, while Zhuo Ling still stood there without moving.
She couldn't have Yan Lie, but Jin Yi must be hers.
How could Bai Wanwan know that an unintentional word from Shi Hua would bring her unmerited trouble.
In the afternoon, when Xin Feng returned carrying prey, Bai Wanwan pulled him along and excitedly recounted how she had tricked Zhuo Ling.
Although Xin Feng was amused and exasperated, his eyes were still full of doting, "If you like them, Zhu Xiu and I can trade for them for you; why would you want hers?"
"Why wouldn't I want them? If it's free, why not take it? I also put in the labor."
"Labor? You helped her do work?" Xin Feng frowned. After the incident with Wan Wan's abdominal pain last time, the two of them had been keeping a close eye on her, unwilling to let her do anything.
She had to do work just for a few skirts?
He couldn't help but look at Zhu Xiu, who snorted and didn't offer any explanation at all.
Bai Wanwan chuckled, "The labor I meant was using my mouth. I complimented her. I don't easily compliment people; only after I complimented her until she was happy did she feel willing to give me the skirts."
"Just like that, you traded for four fine linen skirts?"
beast skin skirts were the common attire for Females in the Beast World; to wear coarse or fine linen, one's Beast Husband had to be capable.
Besides having a strong enough Talent to hunt more prey, they also needed the opportunity to go outside and trade.
For someone like Bai Wanwan to trade for four fine linen skirts without any effort, just by moving her lips, it must make so many people envious.
"Yeah, these skirts aren't good-looking at all; since they're free, I'll just make do with wearing them."
The style, color, and texture couldn't compare to the skirts exchanged from the system.
"Hm, if you don't like them, don't wear them. When we leave here, we'll exchange for some for you."
"Okay, then I'll wait. When that time comes, I'll wear one every day, wearing new ones every day."
Xin Feng nodded with a smile, "Okay."
Turning his gaze, he saw Zhu Xiu and asked, "Zhu Xiu, how is your situation recently?"
Zhu Xiu was dragging the prey from outside to the inside.
"The situation has been quite stable lately, no need to worry."
"Then, after Wan Wan finishes giving birth to this litter of Cubs, we will go to other places to find a way."
The family chatted while preparing dinner.
Bai Wanwan ate and drank heartily; after eating until her stomach was round, she began to feel sleepy again.
Just as Xin Feng was about to make a move, Zhu Xiu had already stood up and walked to her side.
"Sleep with me tonight; I'll take care of her."
The two Males took turns taking care of Bai Wanwan; today it just happened to be Zhu Xiu's turn.
After Zhu Xiu said this in a low voice, he carried the Female into his Stone House.
Bai Wanwan wasn't fully asleep yet; after lying down, she turned over, pulled up the blanket, and slept comfortably.
Zhu Xiu brought water back to wash her up carefully, tucked in the corners of the blanket, and then walked back out.
Xin Feng had already tidied up the bowls and chopsticks, looked up at him, and asked, "Do you have something to tell me?"
Zhu Xiu gave an "Hm," "I lied to Wan Wan just now."
Xin Feng's handsome face furrowed, "Is it acting up again?"
"It hasn't acted up yet, but I am about to lose control of the backlash from the dark curse. I estimate it will be in these two days, so I have to leave. The food is already stored up enough; take good care of Wan Wan and wait for my return."
"Okay, go with peace of mind. As long as I don't go out hunting, I'll watch over Wan Wan and the Cubs, nothing will happen."
After the two Males finished discussing, the light in the cave was extinguished. Zhu Xiu lifted the blanket, lay down, and took Bai Wanwan into his arms, "Wan Wan, I have to leave. Take good care of yourself during the pregnancy, wait for me to return."
