352: Chapter 28 will definitely amaze him!

On the night of the Binding Ceremony, the Male Beastman had actually gone missing.

Even though he was the chief's son, it could not be forgiven!

The chief was furious and took the Male Beastmen to search for Bao Meng.

After searching for a day and a night, they found a battered Bao Meng and a dying Bao Hen in the Thorn Valley.

It turned out that on the night before the Binding Ceremony, Bao Meng had been suddenly called out by Bao Hen.

He angrily told him that Bao Yang was his, and that she had promised long ago to be his Mistress.

At this point in the story, Yun Tiankai suddenly put down the pine nuts in her hand and asked, "Did you really promise?"

Bao Yang nodded.

Yun Tiankai: "That was too rash. You almost missed out on the chief's son."

Zhu Zhu: "You could have just taken both!"

Bao Yang smiled bitterly, "The situation was quite special back then."

Bao Yang continued her story.

She had indeed promised to be Bao Hen's Mistress.

But that was when he was six and she was eight...

Bao Yang had been trying to comfort Bao Hen, who had accidentally been pricked by a hedgehog.

She didn't know what to say to make him stop crying.

So, she remembered that the aunties in the Tribe had said that what Male Beastmen wanted most was a Mistress.

She said to him, "If you stop crying, I'll be your Mistress."

And then, Bao Hen stopped crying.

It was originally just a tactic to coax a little Cub, and besides, she was just a Cub herself at the time, so it shouldn't have counted at all.

But Bao Hen remembered it, and had always believed that he would be her first Beast Husband.

When he learned that Bao Yang was going to have a Binding Ceremony with Bao Meng—

Out of fear of his status, he endured it for several days, but finally, under the influence of the Dizziness Fruit, he went to challenge Bao Meng to a duel.

Yun Tiankai curiously interrupted her again, "What is a Dizziness Fruit?"

Zhu Zhu said excitedly, "I know! I picked one up on the beach before I came of age. It makes you dizzy and very excited when you eat it!"

Yun Tiankai: It sounds like alcohol.

Can this thing sell for a good price?

Bao Yang nodded, "It must have drifted over from our island. As far as I know, among the islands in this vicinity, only the Leopard Tribe's island has Dizziness Fruit."

Speaking of this, a trace of sorrow appeared on her face.

Now, that place is no longer the Leopard Tribe's island.

Bao Yang continued.

Bao Meng had learned that Bao Hen liked Bao Yang.

In theory, a Mistress can have multiple Beast Husbands.

As long as Bao Yang was willing, once Bao Hen came of age, he wouldn't mind her taking a few more Beast Husbands to help take care of her.

But he had eaten the Dizziness Fruit and come to cause trouble for him.

This made him feel that Bao Hen was a very unreliable Male Beastman.

Therefore, Bao Meng wanted to drive him away.

But Bao Hen said, "I'll take you to see something. If you don't see it, you'll regret it."

Bao Meng recalled that he had often seen Bao Hen entering and leaving Bao Yang's cave from his high vantage point.

Ultimately, he couldn't control his curiosity.

Who would have thought that he would lead him to the top of the Thorn Valley.

Above the Thorn Valley, there was a dueling platform, a place where Male Beastmen went to duel.

Unlike duels in other places, the loser of a duel here had to jump into the Thorn Valley.

Life and death are left to fate.

Bao Meng immediately wanted to leave.

As a result, Bao Hen attacked with a lethal move right from the start.

Even though he was so young, he had actually already awakened a Supernatural Ability.

It was a Wind Affinity Supernatural Ability, turning the surrounding wind into sharp blades, instantly slicing through the ice shield that had appeared in front of Bao Meng.

But after a few rounds, Bao Hen still lost.

"Go back! We can fight again when you're of age."

Unexpectedly, Bao Hen turned around and jumped down.

"Clap clap clap clap!" Zhu Zhu and Yun Tiankai couldn't help but applaud together.

Yun Tiankai: "I couldn't tell he was such a hopeless romantic!"

"What is a 'hopeless romantic'?" Bao Yang asked.

Yun Tiankai thought for a moment and explained simply, "It means being overly obsessed with relationships."

Bao Yang coughed awkwardly, "Some young Male Beastmen find it very hard to accept that the Female Beastman they like has several Beast Husbands.

Only when they grow up a bit do they realize that having more Beast Husbands doesn't mean the Mistress doesn't love them anymore.

It just means more people are maintaining their little home together, and the Mistress can be better taken care of.

In some families with good relationships, the Beast Husbands get along just like brothers."

Yun Tiankai suddenly thought of Tang Longyan.

His Fourth Father had sent him here to build a city.

So, what was the relationship between the family members in his home—was it good, or was it bad?

If you say his Fourth Father treats him well—the situation here is indeed quite troublesome.

If you say he treats him badly—well, he at least gave him a piece of land.

Although they are one family, the Beast Kingdom belongs to his Fourth Father, not his father.

In Yun Tiankai's view, giving such a large piece of land, if placed in the ancient times of her world, would be considered granting a fief.

"Sigh! I really wish the Male Beastmen of the Barren Continent thought like that. I have eight Beast Husbands..."

Zhu Zhu helplessly held up eight fingers with both hands.

"And then?" Yun Tiankai asked.

Bao Yang: "Later, Bao Meng couldn't just stand by and watch him die, so he went down the cliff face to find Bao Hen.

The thorns in the Thorn Valley are poisonous and will cause Beastmen to temporarily lose their Supernatural Ability, and even their physical strength will decrease.

Bao Meng couldn't carry Bao Hen back up, so he could only wait below for someone to rescue them."

Zhu Zhu: "What a troublesome Cub."

Yun Tiankai couldn't help it and laughed out loud with a "Pfft!", "That's a spot-on summary."

Bao Yang: "I hated him to death back then! Although a month later, Bao Meng and I held the Binding Ceremony again, I never spoke to him after that."

"So, have you rekindled your old feelings for him now?" Zhu Zhu asked.

Bao Yang: ...

Bao Yang: "I just didn't expect to see him here."

"What do you mean?" Yun Tiankai asked.

Bao Yang looked into the distance; the sunset had completely disappeared into the darkness.

"Back then, after the Leopard Tribe was occupied by the Hyena Tribe, they didn't kill or drive away the Male Beastmen under 18; instead, they let them stay and continue living on the island.

The seventeen-year-old Bao Hen was also locked in a 'designated area.' Although it wasn't as good as where the Leopard Tribe used to live, at least they wouldn't starve to death... I didn't expect that he would—"

Yun Tiankai stood up excitedly.

"He escaped for your sake, jumped into the sea to find you, because he knew that you would definitely go looking for Bao Meng, whom the Hyena Tribe had thrown into the sea!"

Bao Yang looked up at her, nodded, and asked, "How did you know?"

Yun Tiankai blinked, "Because I'm smart."

Yun Tiankai: Because she was familiar with this plot! Isn't this just the typical deeply affectionate, obsessive second male lead who risks his life for the heroine!

She suddenly looked at Bao Hen with new respect.

After listening to the "reasons" of the two of them, Yun Tiankai also stated the reasons why they couldn't stay.

"...Besides, aside from the fear that other Female Beastmen would be scared, they only came to help for one day and already stayed to eat with the Female Beastmen. The Male Beastmen outside will think that as long as they help out a little, they can gain the favor of the Female Beastmen. How can we set rules for them and make them into Male Beastmen as good as those of the Leopard Tribe?"

Zhu Zhu covered her mouth excitedly: "Can my seven bad Beast Husbands also become this good?"

Yun Tiankai: ...

Yun Tiankai: "As a great Female Beastman, can you have some ambition? Can't we just swap them out for some good ones?"

Zhu Zhu: ...

Zhu Zhu: "It's not impossible... It's just that they are all quite handsome."

Yun Tiankai: ...

The three Female Beastmen chatted until the moon had risen.

It was only then that Yun Tiankai remembered Tang Longyan hadn't eaten yet.

He said he wasn't hungry earlier, but he should be hungry by now!

Yun Tiankai went to the kitchen, found some meat, cut it into steak shapes with a knife, and grilled it over the unextinguished firewood.

She deliberately grilled it to be a bit tender, the kind that still had blood oozing out.

She felt that the reason Tang Longyan hadn't praised her cooking skills in the previous attempts was because, at the end of the day, he was a Beastman.

He probably couldn't taste the deliciousness of food that was too "well-done."

So—this time, the medium-rare pork chop will definitely amaze him!
