272: Chapter 272 Baby! Mommy's coming to give birth to you!

"No wonder what?" Heng Zhou asked curiously.

"Nothing..." Tang Ruan reined in her emotions.

No wonder she felt that many things in the Beast World were very strange.

For example, even though everyone is a Beastman, only divided into male and female, they call the Beast God's servants "Divine Maiden".

This title, did the Former Beast God learn it from a martial arts drama?

Mistress—Master, it clearly implies a master-servant relationship.

But the Beast World is not a slave society.

It must be a word he invented himself.

Also, the buildings on Beast God Mountain, now that she thinks about it, look a bit like European-style palaces, which are also designs that frequently appear in games.

"What are you thinking about?" Heng Zhou suddenly asked, interrupting Tang Ruan's train of thought.

"Nothing, it's just that after listening to you, I remembered many things again."

Heng Zhou tightened his fingers.

In fact, just now, he had deliberately avoided the cruel parts.

For instance, how the Beast God repeatedly took their souls and experimented with them in different monster eggs.

How, after they were born, they endured immense pain and were forcibly injected with Energy.

And... besides them, how many "other" servants perished under cruel training...

He did not want little A-Wu to remember these things.

"How has your Energy recovery been lately?"

He picked up the dual-colored crystal on her neck, the one gifted by Fen Tian, to change the subject.

Tang Ruan looked at him strangely; didn't he already know?

Uh... did he not sense it yesterday?

"From your state yesterday, you didn't look like a Beastman who is only level one."

Tang Ruan: ...

"Is that so?"

"Come! Energy confrontation!" He suddenly raised his hand, wanting to play a game with her.

Tang Ruan rolled her eyes; wasn't this clearly bullying her!

"I won't use my full strength," Heng Zhou said.

Tang Ruan placed her hand in his palm and mobilized all her Energy.

"You said it yourself—" She suddenly exerted force, wanting to catch him off guard!

Heng Zhou didn't budge an inch.

The next second, Tang Ruan was pressed onto the bed by him, her hand pinned down.

Heng Zhou's eyes and brows were filled with smiles: "You lost, there must be a punishment..."

As he spoke, his kiss descended...

---

The next day, in the corridor.

Tang Ruan rested her chin on her hand, gazing into the distance.

Early this morning, Heng Zhou went with Fen Tian and the others to eliminate monsters.

Tang Ruan recalled what happened last night: This person... how could he play dirty!

Before he started, he clearly didn't say there would be a punishment!

But thinking about the content of the punishment, her little face turned red.

She held her face, acting like a lovesick girl.

Many places were kissed...

Although later, it was her turn to punish him...

"Ruan Ruan!"

Suddenly, Yan Qing's voice came from downstairs.

Tang Ruan stumbled, feeling as if she had been caught doing something bad.

She looked towards Yan Qing, "What's the matter?"

Yan Qing: "Come down, come with me to find the Witch Doctor."

Yan Qing held Tang Ruan's hand and walked towards the Witch Doctor's room.

Tang Ruan felt a bit strange.

Under normal circumstances, if Yan Qing wanted the Witch Doctor to check her body, he would have the Witch Doctor come to her.

This was the first time he asked her to actively seek out the Witch Doctor.

Pushing open the Witch Doctor's door, what came into view were three old men with white beards.

Tang Ruan's heart skipped a beat.

These were the three Old Witch Doctors Yan Qing trusted the most, but they didn't usually live in Central City.

They only frequently came to Central City to visit Yan Qing and teach some knowledge to the Witch Doctor of Central City.

Usually, when the three of them gathered together, it meant someone had a "difficult and complicated illness".

She hurriedly scanned the room, not seeing her Beast Husband.

Tang Ruan breathed a sigh of relief.

However, she saw a strange face.

A white-haired Female Beastman Witch Doctor, her hair disheveled, sat opposite the three Old Witch Doctors.

Her eyes were tightly shut, and she was wearing a gorgeous dark robe that wrapped her body tightly.

Tang Ruan looked at Yan Qing.

Yan Qing introduced: "This is the Witch Doctor I mentioned to you before, who can see souls.

Her eyes are blind, and her movements are also inconvenient."

Only then did Tang Ruan notice that the drape of her clothing on her arms and lower limbs was strange, as if it suddenly flattened out.

Shui Yin's hemline was also this shape...

"Did the Divine Maiden notice?" That Female Beastman Witch Doctor suddenly spoke.

Tang Ruan suddenly looked at her eyes; wasn't she blind?

She asked somewhat awkwardly: "You can see me?"

"I see your soul gazing at me."

Tang Ruan suddenly took a step back, her body bumping into Yan Qing.

She remembered what Heng Zhou said yesterday, that the Former Beast God's soul and the Beastman's soul are very different.

If the Former Beast God really is a person from her original world, would her soul be the same as his?

Then wouldn't this Witch Doctor be able to tell that her soul is not that of a Beastman?

Yan Qing lowered his eyes, looking at her in confusion, and raised his hand to pat her arm.

"Don't be afraid, although Shui Zhu is of the Jiao Clan, she is one of us now."

"Jiao Clan..."

"Yes."

Tang Ruan lowered her head to hide her emotions; even if she could see that her soul was different, she probably hadn't seen the Beast God's soul.

If she really asked, she could just say her soul was special, so it was different from ordinary Beastmen.

"Witch Doctor Shui Zhu used to live in the Merfolk Palace; I invited her here this time because I wanted her to help you look at the Seal on your body," Yan Qing said, looking at Tang Ruan.

Although as long as there is enough Energy, Ruan Ruan can, like Heng Zhou and Lang Lie, slowly break through the Jiao Clan's Seal.

But her speed at absorbing Energy is simply too slow.

Only by letting her become strong can he feel a little more at ease.

Under Yan Qing's guidance, Tang Ruan walked in front of Witch Doctor Shui Zhu.

"Please place your hand on my arm," Witch Doctor Shui Zhu said.

Tang Ruan reached out her hand, but the first touch met empty air.

Confirming her earlier thought, her forearms and lower legs below the knees had been severed.

The Jiao Clan's punishment is truly cruel!

Tang Ruan placed her hand on Witch Doctor Shui Zhu's upper arm.

A moment later, Witch Doctor Shui Zhu asked: "I heard you previously advanced to level five.

How did you advance?"

"In order to lay a Beast Husband's egg, I was nourished by crystals for several months, and during labor, I suddenly broke through the Seal."

Witch Doctor Shui Zhu nodded.

"When a Female Beastman gives birth, it truly stimulates potential; it is the moment of greatest Energy eruption, which is very effective for breaking through the Seal."

Tang Ruan listened attentively and nodded.

Witch Doctor Shui Zhu: "You can try giving birth to another Baby."

Tang Ruan: ...

"Is there... no other way?"

Shui Zhu: "You can also slowly replenish Energy."

Tang Ruan: That means there is no other way.

Seeing Tang Ruan not speaking, Shui Zhu thought she had reservations and explained further: "Judging from your soul, your Beast Form must be very massive.

As long as there are enough crystals, you don't need to worry about the Baby absorbing too much Energy and causing you harm.

Moreover, when the Baby is born, he will also do his best to release Energy.

His Energy and your Energy combined will make it very easy to break through the Seal."

"But when I was giving birth, my Baby competed with me for Energy."

Tang Ruan remembered when she gave birth to Xiao Yi, she was constantly having her Energy snatched by him, which led to her being unable to give birth.

Xiao Yi was almost shattered.

Fortunately, later on, Yan Qing's ring put a Binding on his ability.

Shui Zhu smiled and said: "I have heard about it; that Baby of yours is quite special and should have inherited your Supernatural Ability to absorb Energy.

Babies will instinctively want to become stronger.

Only then can they release more Energy when born, which is beneficial for the Female Beastman's labor.

If you conceive another Baby, you can still use the ring the Beast King gave you."

Tang Ruan didn't expect that Yan Qing had even told her about these things.

It seems he trusts her very much.

But all said and done, she still has to give birth...

Alright then!

Tang Ruan clenched her fists: Baby! Mommy is coming to give birth to you!
