187: Chapter 187 I want to try again.

Tang Ruan instinctively lay back down.

She could feel that as her uterus contracted, the egg seemed to move.

Something wet was slowly flowing out of her body.

“Shui Yin... I, I think I'm about to give birth,” Tang Ruan said in terror.

She couldn't see the situation beneath her.

Recalling the warm sensation she felt when she lost her Baby, Tang Ruan was so scared she even stopped breathing.

Shui Yin struggled to crawl up from the ground.

She moved to the foot of the bed and grabbed Tang Ruan's skirt.

But Shui Yin was only half the height of a normal person, and she couldn't pull it open no matter what.

“Give me the knife,” Tang Ruan suddenly said.

Shui Yin saw the stone knife on the stone table, which was usually used for cutting fruit.

She moved back, picked it up, and handed it to Tang Ruan with trembling hands.

Only after handing it over did she realize—

What was she going to do?

She saw Tang Ruan take the knife in her mouth and use all her strength to prop up her upper body again.

With one hand holding the knife and the other supporting her body,

she raised her hand and cut her skirt open.

Then, she gave it a forceful rip with all her might.

A "rip" sound was heard.

Tang Ruan's lower body was completely exposed.

Shui Yin finally saw the current situation clearly.

Her eyes widened instantly, and her small face turned pale with panic.

Although she had seen her mother help Female Beastmen give birth,

she hadn't expected Tang Ruan to be so fast—

She wasn't mentally prepared yet, and she... she didn't know where to start.

Shui Yin was momentarily paralyzed with fear.

Tang Ruan took a deep breath, trying her best to stay calm, and asked, “Is there any bleeding?”

“No... it's... it's water...” Shui Yin stammered.

As long as it wasn't blood, Tang Ruan felt a little relieved.

“Go and call Sister Niu over.”

Sister Niu was the only Female Beastman in Dragon Valley who had given birth.

Although her four partners were from the Horse and Ox Tribes and she had no experience with egg-laying,

having her was better than nothing.

Shui Yin opened her mouth to call Ma Er, who was guarding the entrance, but then remembered that Tang Ruan wasn't wearing clothes.

With trembling hands, she tried to cover her with the torn skirt.

But Tang Ruan couldn't care about that anymore.

She shouted at the top of her lungs, “Ma Er, go find Sister Niu quickly!

Go now!”

Ma Er, who had been guarding the entrance and was trembling with anxiety, heard her voice.

In an instant, he transformed into a brown horse and ran toward Sister Niu's cave.

And also hearing her voice

were Fen Tian, who had just landed on a distant hillside, and Hu Che, who was still in his Nine-Tailed Black Fox form.

Fen Tian appeared at the entrance of Tang Ruan's cave in an instant.

“A-Wu!”

Fen Tian rushed over and knelt before her, at a loss for what to do.

“What happened to you?”

“Fen Tian!”

Seeing him, Tang Ruan seemed to regain her strength.

She reached out and gripped his hand tightly.

“I... I think I'm about to give birth.”

Fen Tian's eyes widened as he looked at Tang Ruan's partially exposed lower body.

“What should I do?”

“Help me take these clothes away and find a thin, large piece of fur to cover me.”

“Okay!”

Fen Tian immediately opened his space, and a pile of things fell out with a "clatter."

He squatted down and buried his head, rummaging through the pile of items.

And Hu Che, who rushed into the cave, happened to see this scene.

He raised his hand and took out a thin blanket from his space.

After checking Tang Ruan's condition, he covered her body properly.

“It hasn't come out yet.” Hu Che gripped Tang Ruan's hand tightly.

“I feel like it's still getting bigger...” Tang Ruan said.

At this moment, she didn't just feel hot; she even felt bloated.

She thought of She Yan's egg.

She hadn't thought much of it then, but thinking about it now, how on earth did something that big come out of a body?

It was simply impossible!

For a while, this egg hadn't grown at all.

She had thought it wouldn't grow as big as She Yan's egg.

That big...

Without a C-section, she would die!

Tang Ruan suddenly felt very afraid and gripped Hu Che tightly. “Hu Che, I'm scared... I... I feel like it's still getting bigger.”

Hearing the words "getting bigger,"

Fen Tian, whose mind had gone blank with nervousness, finally thought of something.

“The ring!

A-Wu, put on this ring! The egg won't get any bigger then.”

He hurriedly took out the ring and put it on her hand.

In just an instant,

it suddenly became quiet inside Tang Ruan's belly.

The surrounding Energy was still being absorbed, but the egg stopped growing.

Tang Ruan reached out to touch her stomach; the egg had already grown to the size of a soccer ball.

She was still going to die of pain...

Hu Che leaned down to hold Tang Ruan, and she leaned on his shoulder, crying uncontrollably.

“What should I do... I don't think I can give birth to it...”

“Then let's not have this egg, okay?” Hu Che supported the back of her head and coaxed her softly.

Hearing this, Fen Tian took a step forward.

He was about to say the same thing as Hu Che,

but he saw Tang Ruan shake her head vigorously. “No... I want to try one more time.”

How could she give up on this little life so easily?

She didn't even need to think to know what they were planning to do.

She was a veterinary student; when this happened with oviparous animals, it usually required manual intervention—breaking the egg to take it out.

Seeing her so determined,

Hu Che suddenly pushed Tang Ruan away gently.

“Mistress, wait a moment.”

He grabbed the stunned Fen Tian and pulled him out of the cave.

“Go to my manor and bring the Witch Doctors here, the more the better!

Do not put them in your space; they will be scared to death!

When you come back, bring Lang Lie and Yan Qing with you!”

Bring the Witch Doctors, but they couldn't be put in the space.

This meant Fen Tian would have to let these beastmen ride on his back—the back of the grand Beast God.

For an ordinary Male Beastman, this was considered an insult, let alone for someone as arrogant as him.

Bringing Lang Lie and Yan Qing was not only because Hu Che felt Yan Qing would surely have a way,

but also because, even if they had no way, the Mistress would surely gain strength from seeing them!

But these two tasks were clearly very difficult for Fen Tian to accept.

Furthermore, when Hu Che spoke to him, he had used a commanding tone because he was too nervous.

After finishing, he looked at him uneasily.

However, he saw Fen Tian's crimson eyes staring at him, and after only a second of silence,

“Fine!”

In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from before Hu Che.

Hu Che let out a huge sigh of relief.

He hurried back into the cave, took out water and some things needed for childbirth from his space, and stayed by Tang Ruan's side.

On the other side.

Yan Qing, in his Beast Form, was flying in mid-air.

“Yan Qing!”

Lang Lie, who was lying on his back in his adult wolf form, suddenly patted Yan Qing's body with his front paw.

His ice-blue eyes sparkled in the sunlight.

He saw a range of mountains in the distance.

Although the distance was still very far, he could vaguely see that they were mountains in a circular formation.

It was somewhat similar to the one on Hu Che's small map.

Yan Qing didn't answer, but he increased his speed.

Suddenly, a black dot flew out from among the mountains.

In the blink of an eye, it passed over their heads and disappeared at the end of the sky.

“What was that? So fast!” It was actually similar to the speed of the Beast God.

Just as Lang Lie finished speaking, the black dot flew back again.
