After knocking down five beastly men, the vicious female escaped

Chapter 171 The Lively Royal City

Although they had the idea of ​​opening a shop, the three of them were exhausted and lacked motivation after just escaping a crisis.

Especially Wen Shu, who was pregnant.

Thinking she could rest for another day, she tried to ignore the subtle rivalry between Luo Fei and Wu Xuan. After dinner, she went back to her room and took a hot bath.

The warm water flowing over my chest greatly relieved my fatigue.

She let out a comfortable sigh, then sank further into the water, resting the back of her neck against the edge of the tub.

Gazing at the increasingly blurred glass lamp through the rising steam above, my thoughts drifted aimlessly into emptiness...

"Ah Shu."

In the hazy distance, a hoarse sob slowly rose from behind.

The overly familiar voice unexpectedly touched Wen Shu's tender heart, but she did not turn around.

Seeing her so indifferent, the newcomer's breath caught in his throat. He wrapped two strong arms around Wen Shu's shoulders and pulled her into a tight embrace.

"I miss you so much."

A scalding wet sensation landed on the side of my face.

Wen Shu clenched her fists, trying to remain calm. When she turned her head to meet those deep green eyes, she couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.

"Musil..."

She opened her lips, wanting to question him about why he broke his promise, but Musil, whose eyes were red at the corners, seemed not to hear her voice, muttering to himself, "Where are you?"

Wen Shu was stunned. Before she could even ask a question, a warm hand gently brushed across her chin.

"Ah Shu, we're looking for you."

Nan's gentle face suddenly appeared in the white, hot steam.

It was a dream...

The moment that thought crossed my mind, the scene before me vanished.

Wen Shu suddenly opened her eyes. The bathroom was empty, and the water had already gone cold.

"It really was a dream."

She placed her palm on her forehead, trying to sit up, but her abdomen seemed to sense something, and a comforting warmth welled up inside her.

Wen Shu blinked, her palm slowly descending to gently press against her still-flat stomach, her feelings somewhat complicated...

While she was still in a daze, the males entered the room.

Before the door could even close, Wu Xuan lowered his voice and said, "A-Shu is pregnant, it's inconvenient with so many people around, you should sleep in another room."

Luo Fei sneered, "Why should I? I can take care of her too. What, are you in such a hurry to get rid of me? Are you afraid that A-Shu will like me more?"

After the breakfast incident, Wu Xuan became more rational and less easily provoked by his words.

"Because I might be the cub's father."

His powerful counterattack left Luo Fei speechless for a moment.

Silence fell in the room, and even through the door, Wen Shu could feel the tense atmosphere.

The two of them were at each other's throats for an entire day.

She felt it necessary to consult other females on how to get her animal husband to get along harmoniously.

Wen Shu sighed silently, raised her hand to push open the door, met their gazes, grabbed one of them with each hand and dragged them to the bedside.

"Take off your shoes."

Wu Xuan looked puzzled, but obediently did as instructed.

This was the first time Wen Shu had taken the initiative like this. Luo Fei's eyes flashed with excitement. He slowly got into bed, his eyes slightly upturned. "Come on, it's warm next to me."

He reached out with his long arm to pull the person into his arms, but Wen Shu took a step back and patted the edge of the bed with a serious expression.

"Be serious, sit cross-legged on the edge of the bed, I'll teach you how to improve your mental strength."

Hearing her say that, Wu Xuan did as she said with a serious expression, her golden eyes like those of a well-behaved child thirsting for knowledge.

In contrast, Luo Fei's smile faltered for a few seconds after being ruthlessly rejected, before he condescended to approach her, serving as a complete negative example.

However, when he discovered that Wen Shu's method was indeed effective, his helpless expression, as if he were playing house with her, instantly turned serious.

Seeing that the two were in a meditative state, Wen Shu also sat cross-legged.

Abundant power coursed through his body. And since purifying the sea, the spiritual power of this body had increased dramatically, subtly reaching another bottleneck.

A scorching white light emanated from her palm. She had a premonition that with more time of cultivation, her power would be even greater than in her previous life.

The short night passed quickly.

Early in the morning, Wen Shu went out to check out the shops.

Just as they stepped out of the castle, an orc couple ran off excitedly, muttering things like they were late.

Wen Shu was puzzled, but when they arrived in the city center, they were immediately overwhelmed by the bustling scene before them.

On the wide and clean streets, giant trucks carrying saplings of giant trees moved forward through the crowded streets.

The shadows of the trees, blocking out the sun, slowly passed overhead.

Wen Shu looked up and saw a gentle breeze blowing, causing the gems hanging from the branches to jingle, and countless colorful ropes to fall amidst the dazzling light.

"Please give way!"

The beastmen cheered and opened their hands, grabbing a stick and hiding it in their bosoms, expressing their hopes with either piety or excitement.

"My Lord Beast God, I hope my rank can be raised rapidly this year, and my beloved female will surely choose me!"

"Great Beast God, please grant me a litter of cubs!"

"The female is about to give birth; I only pray that she and the cub will be safe and sound..."

Wen Shu and Wu Xuan came from a tribe and had never seen such a scene before.

Luo Fei had heard about it, so he spread his arms to separate the excited orcs and explained in a low voice.

"The Sacred Tree Ceremony is approaching, but only a few nobles will be able to attend."

He cleared a path for Wu Xuan, adding, "The Isa Empire values ​​equality, yet it cannot break the rules jointly established by the three great empires."

"Therefore, such a parade would be held in the royal city before and after the grand ceremony..."

As the bustling crowd gradually dispersed, Wen Shu looked around and thought, "So this is the capital of the Isa Empire."

Unlike the City of Beasts in Arendia.

Although the urban area here is also filled with high-rise buildings, it is interspersed with several beautifully built retro wooden houses.

At first glance, it seems abrupt, but upon closer inspection, the clever design between the wooden houses and high-rise buildings blends the wildness and elegance of the tribe, creating a unique exotic atmosphere.

This alone demonstrates the inclusiveness of the Isa Empire.

Wen Shu developed a fondness for this city.

His gaze swept over the cluster of wooden houses, noticing a "For Rent" sign. He walked slowly closer, asking, "On the day of the Sacred Tree Festival, will there be priests coming to offer blessings?"

Luo Fei was somewhat surprised. "Yes, how did you know?"

“A friend told me.”

Wen Shu knocked on the door, then turned around thoughtfully, "What are the requirements if I want to participate in the celebration?"

Upon hearing this, the males were all stunned for a moment.

Ah-Shu wants to participate in this sacred tree celebration?
Wu Xuan blinked, but since he knew he would fully support the female if she wanted to do it, he also looked at Luo Fei.

Under the watchful eyes of the two, Luo Fei remained unfazed, slowly hooking his arm around Wen Shu's and raising an eyebrow. "What are you going to do? If you're going to meet your lover, I won't help you."

In a way, he was right, but she clearly had something very important to do.

However, she dared not say that, given Luo Fei's personality, if he knew she was going to see Yining, he would definitely try to stop her.

Wen Shu's eyes flickered, her lips tightened, and she said in a low voice, "What are you thinking about? There's something I want to know in advance; it's very important to me."

To be precise, this matter is relevant to all orcs.

Luo Fei, having learned his lesson, was once again fooled by Wen Shu's masterful acting skills, causing his slightly raised eyebrows to droop a bit.

"Logically, only members of the royal family and a small number of nobles can participate, but... if you are invited by the royal family, you can also take a look from the outside."

He pondered for a while, still somewhat puzzled, "Actually, the royal family in the inner circle can't see much either."

"The sacred tree sank into the ground long ago; what stands now is merely a transplanted giant tree..."

Ps:

My darlings, there are two more chapters to go, get some rest.

Calvin went through the outline and tried to finish it by midnight.
