Beast World: A Fragile Beauty Blessed with Many Children-Chapter 338 - 337: So This Is the ’Fresh’ Method

As Si Shuo spoke, she let out a ferocious meow and pounced at his neck.

Gong You barely had time to activate his Protective Shield as his Couple Brothers shot daggers at him with their eyes, and then he let the little female gnaw on him.

"Sweetheart... hiss... are you really chewing on me like I’m a duck neck?" Gong You felt a slight, stimulating pain, and he pulled her closer, his voice growing husky.

Si Shuo was a Cat Beastman, so she was naturally sensitive to the coppery-sweet scent of blood. What’s more, now that she was pregnant with cubs, her sense of smell had grown even sharper.

’She loved Gong You’s scent so much. The closer she got to his skin and blood vessels, the better he smelled. SNIFF, SNIFF, SNIFF... She got high off the scent and started licking and nibbling...’

Gong You was on the verge of losing his mind from her torment. He desperately wished she would just give him a quick release.

But then, Si Shuo took out an immobilization talisman and froze him solid!

His dark green eyes flushed crimson. His whole body ached with frustration, but he was powerless, forced to let the little female have her way with him. He couldn’t even make a sound.

Now, he was truly fish on a chopping block...

After finishing her "seafood buffet," Si Shuo admired her handiwork on Gong You’s body and nuzzled him in satisfaction. But the moment she removed the immobilization talisman, he flipped the tables and pounced on her.

"Sweetheart, you’ve had your fill, but I’m still starving," Gong You said, grabbing her wrist. ’Tsk, the little female has too many tricks up her sleeve. It’s impossible to guard against them all. When did she learn how to use an immobilization talisman?’

Gong You, the "high-temperature furnace," swept her up princess-style and carried her to the bedroom. He coolly said he would join her for a nap, then began to methodically "cool himself down."

You have to put out the fire you start, even if you cry while doing it!

After sleeping for a while, Si Shuo was woken by hunger. Coincidentally, Yin Jiang had just returned from a hunt and was roasting meat outside.

She nibbled on a Dust Cleaning Talisman, tidied her hair, and then Xu Chi carried her to the living room.

"I figured you’d be getting hungry," Yin Jiang said, standing up. He took out a strip of cloth and blindfolded Si Shuo, smiling. "Shuo’er, I’ve prepared several kinds of food. Let’s see which one you like."

’Si Shuo was curious. She’d already eaten rat, snake, and even bullfrog meat before, so what could possibly require a blindfolded taste test? Besides, once meat was cut up, it all looked the same. She wouldn’t be able to tell the difference just by looking.’

Still, she humored Yin Jiang. When she smelled the meat, she opened her mouth, took a bite, and chewed slowly. After just two chews, she found the gamey taste was too strong for her liking. Si Shuo frowned, feeling a little nauseous. "It’s gross!"

"Shuo’er, if it tastes bad, just spit it out," Yin Jiang said, touching her lips. "We Hunting Falcons are notoriously picky eaters within the Eagle Falcon Clan," he explained. "It seems the pup has really taken root in your belly and is already developing its own preferences. Here, try this one."

"It’s a bit tough," Si Shuo said after taking a bite of the next piece. "The gamey taste is a little better, so it’s barely tolerable, but I wouldn’t call it delicious."

"And this one?" Yin Jiang offered a different type.

Si Shuo took a bite. The meat was savory, tender, juicy, and had a hint of sweetness. It wasn’t gamey at all, had a satisfying chew, and ticked all the boxes for her. "This one’s delicious!"

With that, she pulled off her blindfold, only to see Yin Jiang holding a piece of meat dripping with bright red liquid?!!

Yin Jiang cleared his throat. "Shuo’er, this is meat from a grass-eating Dueling Horn Ox of the plains. I cooked it medium-rare. It’s nutritious, fresh..."

’So *that’s* what he meant by fresh. I’m carrying all these cubs, so why are the pregnancies for the Horned Deer Cub, the Iron Eating Beast Cub, and the Snow Leopard Cub so much less trouble than this?’

’If they were all this picky, would I have had to gnaw on bamboo three meals a day and chip a tooth while carrying the Iron Eating Beast Cub?’ she thought with a deadpan expression.

Yin Jiang chuckled and rubbed Si Shuo’s head. "Over the next few days, I’ll go out and catch more live prey to bring back. We can keep them at our home in the valley."

"We just need enough to last through your pregnancy, Shuo’er, and the pup’s first month."

Watching Si Shuo nibble on the rare meat, her lips stained a vibrant, wild red, Gong You’s eyes darkened. "Wild Beasts aren’t easy to raise," he said. "I can apply the Time Law for us, shortening three months to ten days. But the amount our sweetheart and the Hunting Falcon Pup need for their three daily meals won’t change. You’ll have to hunt a lot more!"

For the sake of his little female and the cub, he was happy to take on the extra work.

Yin Jiang nodded. Watching how heartily his little female was eating, he couldn’t sit still any longer. He headed right back out to hunt, taking Tuanzi with him when he left.

After Si Shuo finished eating, she noticed a white owl as tall as a person sitting beside Xue Zhu?!

"Is that a Snowy Owl?" Si Shuo breathed in awe. One of her favorite things about the Beast World Continent was getting to see wild animals up close.

Xue Zhu lifted her chin, her face full of pride. "Yep! Uncle Yin Jiang found him for me. He said that whenever the weather turns cold, Flying Beasts from the north sometimes stray into our territory."

"Snowy Owls are large, and their plumage is about the same color as Uncle Yin Jiang’s, but they’re just as ferocious as other Flying Beasts. He’s my exclusive mount now, and I call him Brother Xue!"

The two Snake Cubs, coiled on their Father’s shoulders, looked on with envy. Their Beast Forms were too small; they were a favorite snack for many large Flying Beasts.

Xueqiu and Xue Bao also hid behind their Father, peeking out at the strange new creature.

"Snowy Owls are the huskies of the owl world," Xu Ye said, flapping his wings to get the Snowy Owl’s attention.

Having just arrived, the Snowy Owl was curious about everything. Its head swiveled from side to side with jerky movements, and it looked so adorably goofy that it didn’t seem dangerous at all.

But when its target is a person, it will attack the head first, then slash at the face with its sharp talons!

Yuanyuan, however, simply transformed into a Snowy Owl and began swaying along with the real one...

The cubs didn’t dare bother Brother Xue, but they all pounced on Yuanyuan to watch her perform her tricks.

Watching the fluffy white "walking chicken," Si Shuo laughed so hard she fell back into Ji Liang’s arms.

Xiao Cheng, watching from the side, raised an eyebrow. He also transformed into a Snowy Owl and sidled up to her. His brothers didn’t allow him to change into other male half-beast forms, but his full Beast Form was acceptable.

However, before he could get close to his little female and curry favor, he was mobbed by a pack of cubs!

Xiao Cheng rarely transformed at home, so the cubs were only just discovering that their Father Xiao Cheng had the same kind of superpower as Yuanyuan.

Now that they had a new playmate, the Little Golden Eagle happened to show up looking for Yuanyuan. Xu Chi turned invisible to chaperone the cubs as they all went out to play. Xiao Cheng was dragged along, not even getting to touch his little female’s hand.

Zhi Le let out a mean-spirited laugh. "That fox is always scheming. I’ve never seen someone so eager to dig their own grave."

Wei Ce nodded in agreement. "Serves him right!" ’The cubs are a good bunch,’ he thought.

Si Shuo nibbled on a piece of fruit, pretending not to hear the sourness in their voices. ’When that fox gets back,’ she mused, ’I’ll have to cheer up my little Beast Husband.’

However, her thoughts drifted to her Beast Husbands’ superpowers. Among them, Gong You’s Time Law and Xiao Cheng’s rebound superpower were particularly good.

Si Shuo rubbed her belly, a smile playing on her lips. ’Since my thoughts could very well influence which superpowers my cubs awaken,’ she mused, ’I might as well start planning them out now!’

’That’s right. When it’s time for the Fish Cub, I’ll add my Replication Ability into the mix...’
