161: Chapter 161 This is the last time I'll believe in you.
Fen Tian looked at Tang Ruan with both surprise and joy, "You are willing?"
Tang Ruan nodded gently, "But I have a condition."
"Speak."
"We will live together for one year. Within this year, I will not contact any Beast Husband other than you.
After one year, if you are willing, we will return together to live with Yan Qing, Lang Lie, and Hu Che. If you are not willing, I will stay with you forever."
"Good!"
Fen Tian agreed without a moment's hesitation.
After one year, he would definitely make A-Wu love only him.
Moreover, one year was enough for A-Wu to fade the feelings she had for her other Beast Husbands.
Even if she still missed them after a year, at least he would have the right to refuse and could continue living with her alone.
No matter how he calculated it, this proposal was very worthwhile for him.
Fen Tian was so happy that his eyes and brows were filled with smiles.
Tang Ruan, however, felt incredibly bitter inside.
She knew she was gambling by doing this, but she had no other choice.
The Red Fox Tribe, which had already been driven out of the Beast Kingdom, dared to gather some "small fry" to make a comeback.
It was clear that the rumor of "Yan Qing is dead" had spread throughout the entire Beast Kingdom.
And those Beastmen who kept coming to harass Central City earlier were clearly not with the Red Fox Tribe.
If they were in the same group, they would know that Fen Tian was in Central City. With Fen Tian's strength, no Beastman would dare to come and provoke them.
As long as Yan Qing did not wake up, situations like this would only increase. The Beast Kingdom would unknowingly fall back into war.
Although Fen Tian was powerful, he did not know how to govern. If he were left to handle it, he would simply kill everyone.
If he grew to hate the current Beast World because of this, he might even destroy the entire Beast World along with it.
Thinking of this, a chill surged in Tang Ruan's heart. She pressed her head back against Fen Tian's abdominal muscles.
It was truly strange; even though those fears were created by the person in front of her, she felt that being close to him made her feel safe.
Besides, Lang Lie had really been asleep for too long. She missed him so, so much. She really wanted him to wake up soon...
She couldn't change Fen Tian's mind for the time being. Rather than dragging it out like this, it would be better to take him away first, so that Yan Qing and Lang Lie could wake up sooner.
If, in the end, she still couldn't change Fen Tian's mind, at least they would be able to live on safely.
Tang Ruan subconsciously gripped the ghost crystal around her neck. "Baby, from now on, you might be the only one who can keep Mother company."

Tang Ruan called together all the Beastmen who knew about Yan Qing and Lang Lie's situation.
"If they wake up, tell them that I left with the Beast God. I am the Beast God's fated Mistress. This is my destiny; for the sake of the Beast World, do not look for me."
"No!" Lang Chi stood up first, "You cannot leave with him!" Lang Yu, standing behind him, nodded desperately.
Tang Ruan looked at them indifferently, "Then do you want me to watch the Beast Kingdom become increasingly chaotic? Or watch you disappear from this world one day because he got angry for a moment?"
Lang Chi stopped talking. He clenched his fists, hating his own incompetence.
The three Old Witch Doctors, along with She Mu and Lang Feng, agreed with Tang Ruan's approach. Considering the big picture, this was the best choice.
Tang Ruan returned to her room to pack. She had everything in her space, so there was actually nothing to bring.
After looking around, she finally only put the box that Hu Che had given her into her space.
When she went out, she bumped into Lang Mo, who was rushing over. Upon seeing her, Lang Mo immediately knelt and saluted. After standing up, he said worriedly, "I have brought the Lord of Red Fox City. Do you want to see him?"
Tang Ruan lowered her eyes and shook her head. "Better not see him. Otherwise, I won't be able to leave."
Lang Mo stepped aside. Tang Ruan walked past her. Lang Mo suddenly said, "Have you really decided? The Boss and the Beast King will not give up looking for you!"
Tang Ruan: "Help me take good care of them."

Fen Tian held Tang Ruan's hand and walked out of the Beast King Palace. Hurried footsteps came from behind. Tang Ruan turned back. She saw Lang Chi running over in a hurry.
"Awake."
Hearing these two words, Tang Ruan could no longer control her emotions, and tears welled up in her eyes. She turned around, wanting to run back.
She was grabbed by Fen Tian. "Mistress, have you forgotten what you said to me just a while ago? This is the last time I will believe you. If you make me feel that the Beast World is untrustworthy, I might as well destroy it and start over!"
Hearing Fen Tian's threat, Tang Ruan ultimately retreated. She slowly backed away to Fen Tian's side.
Lang Chi had just taken a step toward her. A loud "Bang!" sounded. The tallest building in the Beast King Palace had snapped. This was Fen Tian's threat.
At the same time, all the Beastmen in the entire Central City were pressed to the ground by his pressure.
Fen Tian picked up Tang Ruan and leaped into the air. He transformed into his Beast Form in mid-air. His massive Beast Form blotted out the sky and sun.
On his back, Tang Ruan was so tiny that she could burrow into his feathers. Such a massive Beast Form was like a miracle, making all the Beastmen in Central City firmly believe that, on that day, it was the Beast God who had taken the Goddess away.
---
Tang Ruan burrowed into Fen Tian's feathers, as if climbing into a giant quilt. She tightly hugged one of his feathers and poked her head out, just in time to see Beast God Mountain passing beneath her.
A merchant ship was floating on the sea; she didn't know if it was Hu Che's. She couldn't help but feel a wave of sadness. In this lifetime, she didn't know if they would ever be together again.
"Don't come out. It's windy outside." Fen Tian's voice came like thunder. Tang Ruan burrowed back in.
After fumbling for a long time, she finally climbed onto his head. To Tang Ruan, Fen Tian's horns were like giant pillars. They were covered with horizontal grooves, perfect for gripping.
"Where are we going?" Tang Ruan asked, standing on top of his head. "Dragon Valley."
Tang Ruan blinked and guessed, "Your home from your past life?" "It is our home."
At Fen Tian's request, Tang Ruan burrowed back in. When she opened her eyes again, she was sleeping in Fen Tian's arms.
"Are we here?" Tang Ruan rubbed her eyes and sat up. Everything around them was lush and green; they seemed to be in a forest.
"Yes, you rest for a while, I'll go find the entrance." Fen Tian helped her sit up and stood up himself.
Tang Ruan: ? Tang Ruan: "You don't know where the entrance to your own home is?"
Fen Tian walked in one direction while saying, "When I was in the sky just now, I saw the entrance. I also sensed the aura of my clansmen. So I came down to take a look."
Fen Tian looked to the right, and Tang Ruan looked to the left. If the two of them searched together, it would be faster.
Tang Ruan passed through the dense branches and leaves of a large tree. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. "Fen Tian, it's here."
She saw a cave entrance ahead, just wide enough for three people to walk through side by side. The inside of the cave was pitch black, and it was surrounded by white, flocculent plants. Above the cave entrance, there were two dragon-horn-shaped stones. However, due to the passage of time, one of them had broken off.
Tang Ruan curiously walked to the cave entrance and reached out to touch the white plants. The texture was somewhat like corn silk. No text appeared in her mind. Tang Ruan closed her eyes, preparing to sense further.
Suddenly, Fen Tian's voice came from behind. "A-Wu, get away from there!"
