The vicious female Ye Youcha, who is in Shura Field every day

Chapter 193 Sweeping the Animal Toilet

Beast King City, Qiyue Palace.

This is the palace where Bai Qi resides in the Beast King's Palace. It wasn't originally called this; it was called Snow Shadow Palace. After his return, he renamed it 'Qi Yue Palace'.

As for why he wanted to change it, even he himself didn't know.

I just felt that the name sounded pleasant.

He lazily propped himself up on his arms, half of his body sinking into the snow-white fox fur couch, the green leaf he was twirling between his fingertips, never stopping.

Sunlight streamed through the window, casting dappled patterns on his robes and making his androgynous face appear even more beautiful.

Xuanfeng leaned against a pillar with his arms crossed, coldly watching a patrol of orc guards pass by outside the window: "Third Prince, there's been no movement from Baiye for the time being, but..."

He paused, a hint of disgust flashing in his eyes, "That female named Chu Youyou has been frequently visiting the Imperial Kitchen lately, and I heard she's been ordering all sorts of random ingredients. I wonder what she's up to."

"Oh?"

Bai Qi lifted his eyelids, a playful smile curving his lips. "Father doesn't like outside females eating and living in the palace for free."

With a flick of his finger, a green leaf pierced the window frame like a blade. "Jinyu, go ask the steward what identity Chu Youyou left behind?"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Jin Yu chuckled softly, then turned and left.

Just a moment.

A middle-aged orc steward arrived at Qiyue Palace with trepidation.

Bai Qi glanced at the steward indifferently, his voice languid: "When did my elder brother get a partner? I've never heard of it. Who is this female named Chu Youyou? What is her identity? And why is she living in my elder brother's palace?"

The steward knelt in the center of the hall, his forehead touching the ground, his expression respectful.

Hearing the Third Prince's words, she dared not conceal anything: "Your Highness, Miss Chu was rescued by the First Prince from the outskirts of the royal city. She has been living in the First Prince's side palace. She is neither a member of the royal family nor... a female slave."

Bai Qi lightly tapped the edge of the couch with his fingertips, his nine fox tails swaying lazily behind him. He raised an eyebrow at the steward: "Oh? Then where does she get the meat she eats every day, the charcoal she uses, and the animal hides she wears?"

The steward, his back beaded with cold sweat, cautiously replied, "It's all...it's all recorded in His Highness's account..."

Does Father know about this?

Bai Qi suddenly leaned forward, his dark hair slipping off his shoulders, his beautiful fox-like eyes staring at the steward.

The steward felt his scalp tingling from being stared at, thinking about how Chu Youyou had been frequently visiting the Imperial Kitchen recently.

They also ordered all sorts of strange ingredients, I have no idea what they were messing around with.

The food wasn't made, and a lot of ingredients were wasted.

He silently felt a chill for Chu Youyou; who didn't know that the old beast king hated wasting resources?

Not to mention an unnamed and unknown female.

"Your Highness, the Beast King probably doesn't know yet."

The manager wiped the cold sweat from his brow and answered tremblingly.

The old beast king was busy with countless affairs and also had to focus on cultivation, so he had no time to deal with such trivial matters.

Bai Qi chuckled upon hearing this, and slowly sat up straight. "In that case, let's proceed according to the rules."

He turned his head to look at Xuanfeng, his tone light and casual, "The palace doesn't keep idle people. Either kick her out, or... make her clean the animal latrines."

"Yes, Your Highness."

The steward responded respectfully.

They then left Qiyue Palace.

When he left Qiyue Palace, his legs were weak and his animal skin coat was soaked with cold sweat.

Chu Youyou is the First Prince's guest, but now the Third Prince has to rush to clean the animal latrine. No matter what I do, I will offend one of them.

It's fair to say that they're pleasing neither side.

After much deliberation, the steward decided to first sound out the prince's opinion and see what he meant.

As soon as he reached the entrance of the palace where Bai Ye lived, he heard the sound of porcelain shattering and angry curses coming from inside.

"Who does the second brother think he is, to laugh at me?"

The manager shrank back in fright, his steps froze on the spot, and he secretly lamented that he had come at the worst possible time.

I was just thinking about whether I should leave now and come back later.

Bai Ye's furious voice rang out from inside the hall: "Get out! All of you, get out of here!"

Immediately afterwards, several orc servants scrambled out, their faces still covered in blood.

One of the orc servants even had his head smashed open, his face covered in blood, which looked rather frightening.

The steward swallowed hard, about to quietly slip away.

Bai Ye had already spotted him, staring at him with a dark gaze, and said coldly, "What are you hiding there for? Why don't you get in here right now?"

The steward turned pale with fright, trembled all over, and could only bite the bullet and go in: "Your Highness, what about the Third Prince..."

"What happened to the third brother again?"

Bai Ye frowned upon hearing this, his voice as cold as a viper's hiss.

The steward had just entered the hall when he heard this, and his knees buckled instantly. He simply knelt down and said, "Your Highness, the Third Prince said that Chu Youyou is not a royal concubine. She must either leave the palace or go clean the animal latrines..."

There was silence in the hall for a moment.

Bai Ye glanced at the steward kneeling on the ground and sneered, "Sweeping animal latrines? Third Brother certainly knows how to pick a spot."

He's been so stressed out lately by the Falling Cliff and the Illusion Leaf that he doesn't even dare to leave the house, afraid of being ridiculed.

Now the third brother still wants to harm the people he brought back?
"Tell her to get lost and stop bothering me."

Bai Ye had no time to care about Chu Youyou and waved his hand irritably.

Upon hearing this, the steward knew that the prince did not want to get involved in the matter, and instantly knew what to do.

"Yes, Your Highness."

He felt as if he had been granted a pardon, and just as he stood up to leave,

Then Bai Ye called him back again.

"and many more."

Bai Ye narrowed his fox-like eyes, then suddenly thought of something and a sinister smile curled at the corner of his lips: "Since the third brother is so free... then let Chu Youyou go to his Qiyue Palace to clean the beast latrines."

The female was now missing two front teeth, making her look incredibly ugly. She also always liked to tinker with random, unrelated things, wasting a lot of ingredients instead of producing anything useful.

These were all recorded in his account.

He wasn't unaware of it, but he'd been too busy lately to bother with it.

It's a good opportunity for her to annoy Bai Qi, and it can also save us some money.

Steward: "..."

Who are they trying to disgust?!

……

When Chu Youyou received the notification, she was mixing "coffee" with bitter tree root powder.

"What?! I'm being sent to Qiyue Palace to clean the animal latrines?!"

She stood up abruptly, her missing front tooth causing her to spit out air: "Has Bai Ye gone mad? I'm his guest!"

The steward said expressionlessly, "His Highness said that if you are not happy, you can pack your bags and leave the Beast King's Palace."

Chu Youyou's face was extremely ugly. How could she, a dignified modern transmigrator, be assigned to clean animal latrines? Wasn't that ridiculous?

For a moment, she even considered leaving the Beast King's Palace. With her abilities, where couldn't she survive?

But if she leaves the Beast King's Palace, how will she win over Bai Ye?
She hadn't forgotten that the task set by the system only had 12 hours left.

If she can't get Bai Ye to publicly acknowledge that she is his only partner within 12 hours, she will lose two more front teeth.

Thinking of this, her face grew even more pale.

"Wait, you mean you want me to go to Qiyue Palace?"

Remembering something, Chu Youyou looked at the steward with shining eyes and suddenly asked.

The manager nodded impatiently.

Chu Youyou suddenly smiled happily, though her voice was slightly slurred: "Sure, I'll sweep!"

That's Bai Qi's territory.

If she were to snatch Bai Qi away from Su Xiyue, that vicious woman Su Xiyue would be absolutely furious.

……

Qiyue Palace.

Bai Qi was leaning against the soft couch, toying with a grasshopper woven from wild grass, his eyes filled with longing.

This was something Su Xiyue made up on a whim while she was at the salt lake.

He found it interesting, so he took it and has been wearing it ever since.

Now, it has become his only thought about Xiaoyueyue.

"Little Yueyue, what are you doing right now? Have you been thinking about me?"

Bai Qi stared at the grasshopper woven from straw in his hand, murmuring softly, his long eyelashes fluttering slightly, revealing endless longing within them.

If Bai Ye hadn't been left unresolved, he would have already flown back to the wolf tribe.

"Your Highness."

Xuanfeng suddenly flashed in, his expression strange. "Chu Youyou came with a broom, saying she wanted to... clean the animal toilet."

Bai Qi frowned and sat up, coldly asking, "Who sent her?"

"Your Highness."

Xuanfeng looked at Bai Qi with a hint of sympathy in his eyes. "Someone from the Crown Prince's side came to deliver a message, saying that since you think she's eating and living for free, they'll send her here to... add to your troubles."

Bai Qi's nine fox tails swept behind him, leaving afterimages, before he suddenly smiled sinisterly: "Tell her to go and clean the animal latrines in the slave camp, and remember to make the latrines three feet deep."

Xuanfeng's expression cracked for a moment: "It's currently the height of summer."

"how?"

Bai Qi leisurely toyed with the grasshopper woven from straw in his hand. "Not smelling strong enough?"

He suddenly sat up, his androgynous face breathtakingly beautiful in the light and shadow.

But what he said sent a chill down Xuanfeng's spine: "Have Jinyu keep an eye on her. She must not be given any food or water until she has swept thirty latrines."

The words have not yet fallen.

Xuanfeng had already retreated, his legs trembling.

Meanwhile, in the back mountains of the wolf tribe.

Under the blazing sun, the purple-striped bamboo forest rustled in the heat.

Su Xiyue was directing Bao Fu and Qingzhu to chop bamboo when the system's gloating voice suddenly rang in her mind: "Host, Chu Youyou has been assigned by Bai Qi to sweep latrines in the slave camp. There are thirty of them. She is not allowed to eat or drink until she finishes sweeping them."

Hearing this, she almost burst out laughing: "Thirty latrines? Bai Qi, that old fox, is really cunning."

On such a hot day, to make Chu Youyou clean the toilets, especially the toilets in the slave camp—what a cunning old fox!

Chu Youyou is probably going to be furious.

Leopard Fu was splitting bamboo sections with its claws when it suddenly heard its master's laughter. Wiping the sweat from its brow, it couldn't help but look over and ask, "Master, what are you laughing at?"

"nothing."

She suppressed a laugh and rubbed her stomach. "I just suddenly feel... some people are more annoying than a cesspool."

Qingzhu shook the sweat from her brow, glancing at her with her emerald eyes: "Yue'er, are you sure you can weave a swaying basket out of these thin bamboo strips?"

He held the freshly shaved bamboo strips in his hand, his face full of suspicion.

"This is called a cradle!"

Su Xiyue snatched the bamboo strips from his hand and quickly wove a rough shape with her fingers flying across the paper. "The baby can sleep inside when he is born, and it will sway gently with a push."

Her fingers moved nimbly between the bamboo strips, and the outline of the cradle gradually became clear.

A hint of surprise flashed in Qingzhu's emerald eyes. She couldn't help but reach out and touch the half-finished product, praising it with a smile: "Your hands are quite skillful."

He had seen the picture book before, but he couldn't understand a single word, let alone compile it.

But Yue'er can weave very well, which shows that she is naturally skillful.

The Beast God certainly made the right choice.
