157: Chapter 157 You asked for this.
"Love everything I love?" Fen Tian asked.
"It means that if you love someone, you will love everything she loves." Tang Ruan explained.
"A-Wu... I..." Fen Tian wanted to say that he could do it.
But the words died on his lips when he thought about sharing A-Wu's love with other Male Beastmen.
He still couldn't say it.
Tang Ruan answered for him: "You can't do it.
Because like is selfish, while love is selfless.
Perhaps you don't really love me as much as you imagine.
You just want to possess me."
Tang Ruan let go of his hand.
As if she had given up the last shred of expectation she had for him.
"Is A-Wu trying to trick me into accepting them?" Fen Tian clenched his fists.
Tang Ruan said indifferently: "I'm tired and want to sleep.
You can stay if you want.
Of course, you can also go out for a walk.
See for yourself whether I'm lying."
Tang Ruan lay down on the bed and turned her back to him.
Before long, she heard Fen Tian open the door and walk out.
She let out a sudden sigh of relief.
Tang Ruan was grateful that during her years of working, she had gained plenty of experience being gaslighted.
That was why she was able to brainwash and gaslight Fen Tian from every possible angle.
Fen Tian—he was actually very simple-minded.
In his life, there was only slaughter.
He never had the time to experience emotions before immediately entering the next cycle of reincarnation.
Even if he had once possessed familial or friendly bonds, they were erased by the Beast God before he awakened.
That was why Yong Wu, who had always accompanied him, was seen as so important.
To be honest, Tang Ruan felt a bit guilty about gaslighting Fen Tian.
But—she had no other choice.
The next day, just as the sky was beginning to brighten.
Tang Ruan heard a series of urgent knocks on the door.
"Tang Ruan, it's me!"
The voice was deliberately lowered.
Tang Ruan opened the door and saw Lang Feng kneeling in front of the door.
"Lang Feng, why are you here?"
Lang Feng looked around, making sure no one else was there.
Then he said: "Can we find a safe place to talk?"
Inside Hu Che's cave in Central City.
Lang Feng and Tang Ruan sat opposite each other.
Outside the door, Hu Niu and She Mu stood guard like two door gods.
"Lang Yu suddenly came to find me, what exactly happened?"
Lang Feng had always been one of the smarter ones in the wolf tribe, and for these years, he had been the one managing the wolf tribe's affairs.
Tang Ruan didn't hide anything and simply told him what had happened.
Lang Feng pondered for a moment.
"He is powerful, cares about you, is simple-minded, and doesn't understand this world."
His words were, as always, sharp and to the point.
Tang Ruan thought about it: "Yes!"
She continued: "Last night, he probably went to take a look... but most Female Beastmen don't care about their Beast Husbands.
I'm afraid that what he saw was just a negative example."
"A negative example?" Lang Feng asked curiously.
"It means discovering a situation where having multiple Beast Husbands is actually a bad thing."
Lang Feng pondered for a moment.
"My Mistress and her other Beast Husband are actually here too. They could help..."
Tang Ruan's eyes widened slightly, "You mean—"
She stood up abruptly, "No! He is temperamental and too dangerous!
At worst, I'll just be separated from Lang Lie forever.
At least he will be able to live safely."
As she spoke, tears uncontrollably welled up in her eyes.
She wiped them away roughly.
Now was not the time to cry.
"Tang Ruan," Lang Feng said sincerely, "If the boss wakes up and finds you missing.
He will also go looking for you, just as you looked for him.
And the Beast King, he really is a devoted Beastman."
For Tang Ruan, he even helped the wolf tribe rebuild their home.
Tang Ruan wanted to say something more.
Lang Feng interrupted her, "I'm not doing this for you.
Think about it, if the Beast King finds out what happened.
Won't he risk his life to take you back?
By then, if Fen Tian is angered, the entire Beast Kingdom, and perhaps even the entire Beast World, will cease to exist.
Therefore, letting them coexist peacefully is the only option."
Tang Ruan gasped.
She really hadn't thought that far.
She thought it only concerned the life and death of a few people, never expecting it to be related to the survival of the Beast World.
But if Fen Tian really wanted to destroy a world—he was a "professional."
"Let's try it," Lang Feng said firmly.
Beast King Palace.
Fen Tian, who had spent the day wandering around the Beast Kingdom, brought back quite a few good things.
He prepared to go find Tang Ruan.
Along the way, he saw many Beastman families.
There were some where the family was loving and helpful, but the majority involved the Mistress beating and scolding her Beast Husbands.
But A-Wu probably wouldn't hit them.
Thinking of this, Fen Tian felt a little angry.
Why wasn't A-Wu like those other Female Beastmen, beating and scolding them, and spoiling only him?
If that were the case, he could barely accept it.
But then he thought, if A-Wu only spoiled one, it definitely wouldn't be him.
It must be that Stinky Fox!
Although that Stinky Fox wasn't as powerful as any of them.
He just felt that it must be that way.
Just as he was getting angry at himself, something suddenly bumped into his leg.
"Ouch!"
A Cub, not even as tall as his waist, sat on the ground with a thud.
It rubbed its head and looked up, its delicate little face full of confusion, with a pair of wolf ears on top of its head.
It's a wolf again...
The Cub met Fen Tian's displeased gaze.
It suddenly screamed.
It wanted to stand up and run away, but the pressure Fen Tian inadvertently released while displeased made it unable to stand up at all.
Fen Tian: So annoying.
He raised a finger, then suddenly remembered Tang Ruan's words—"Don't always kill people so casually."
He lowered his index finger, turned on his heel, and intended to walk around it.
Suddenly, from the end of the corridor, two Beastmen came running over, stumbling.
One was a High-level Beastman, who looked very much like the Cub, and the other was a Low-level Beastman.
Both of them fell to their knees in front of Fen Tian with a "thud."
"Beast God, please spare us! The Cub bumped into you; I am willing to die to atone for the sin!"
The Low-level Beastman took out a knife and prepared to slit his throat.
Fen Tian: ...
The High-level Beastman grabbed the knife in the Low-level Beastman's hand: "This child is mine. If anyone is to die, it should be me. It has nothing to do with you!"
The Low-level Beastman held onto the knife and wouldn't let go, "If you die, what will happen to the Mistress?
I am just a Low-level Beastman; I don't have the ability to protect her.
You are her First Beast Husband; you are the most important to her.
The whole family relies on you!"
"Brother, all these years when I was away, you were the one who took care of the Mistress and the Cub.
If you die, the Mistress will be heartbroken!"
"But you are more powerful; you need to live to protect the Cubs."
"But she loves you more!"
"She loves you too!"
"She loves you."
"She loves you..."
Fen Tian looked left and right.
He understood now; these were two Beast Husbands of one Female Beastman.
Fighting over who should die to atone for the Cub bumping into him.
Can they actually get along this well?
But he didn't have time to watch anymore.
He was in a hurry to find Tang Ruan and said impatiently: "Who is dying?
How about—both of you?"
Lang Feng: ...
Low-level Beastman: ...
Upon hearing this, the Cub cried even louder.
Tang Ruan, who was standing at the corner, was about to come out.
Lang Feng's Mistress took a step ahead.
She rushed over from the other side.
"If the Beast God wants to kill, then take our whole family together!
If either of them dies, I won't be able to go on living!"
The Cub ran into the Female Beastman's arms.
She grabbed Lang Feng with one hand and the other Beast Husband with the other.
She closed her eyes, looking ready to die in peace.
Fen Tian said impatiently: "This is what you asked for."
